In many countries, including Korea, in order to transmit the more electric power, the higher transmission line voltage is inevitable. So, a rapid reclosing scheme is important for UHV transmission lines to ensure requirements for high reliability of main lines. But, because of the high voltage and long span of UHV lines, the secondary arc current flows across the fault point even after the interruption of the fault current. i.e. A critical aspect of reclosing operation is the extinction of the secondary arc since it must extinguish before successful reclosure can occur. In Korea transmission lines, it is scheduled to energize 765kV single transmission line(79km) between Sin-Ansung S/S and Sin-Gapyeong S/S at June 2006. Therefore this paper analyzes characteristics of the secondary arc extinction on 765kV single transmission line using EMTP. Simulation results shows that the average value of the secondary arc is $30A_{rms}$ and the auto-extinction time of it is longer at closer point to Sin-Gapyeong S/S.

In this paper, we propose an efficient symbol detection algorithm for multiple-input multiple-output spatial multiplexing (MIMO-SM) systems and present its design and implementation results. By enhancing the performance of the first detected symbol which causes error propagation, the proposed algorithm achieves a considerable performance gain as compared to the conventional sorted QR decomposition (SQRD) based detection and the ordered successive detection (OSD) algorithms. The bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed detection algorithm is evaluated by the simulation. In case of 16QAM MIMO-SM system with 4 transmit and 4 receive ($4{\times}4$) antennas, at $BER=10^{-3}$ the proposed algorithm obtains the gai improvement of about 2.5-13.5 dB over the conventional algorithms. The proposed detection algorithm was designed in a hardware description language (HDL) and synthesized to gate-level circuits using 0.18um 1.8V CMOS standard cell library. The results show that the proposed algorithm can be implemented without increasing the hardware costs significantly.

Cut-off filters would reject all the radiation below and transmit all that above a certain wavelength or vice versa. In this paper, we study design and farbrication of dichroic mirror and broadband high reflective mirror for color separation of white laser beam source to R.G.B color beam source. In laser display system, color separation is very important. We fabricated below specific component for finite color separation of the Kr-Ar laser source. At 45$^{\circ}$ incidence s-polarized light , it is required that - H/R in blue region R>99%, H/T in green and red region T>90% - H/R in green and red region R>99%, H/T in blue region T>90% - H/R in green region R>99%, H/T in red region T>90% We composed the optical system and realize the full color image.

Purpose : We have tried to search all concerning data on the policies of hepatitis B vaccination or surveillance of medical equipments that can transmit blood mediated diseases, including disposable syringe, in Republic of Korea, to propose references to other medical professionals. Methods : Data from domestic journals, government websites, computerized newspapers, etc. were reviewed. The data were arranged into four categories (governmental policies on hepatitis B control, hepatitis B mass immunization program in school, using process of hepatitis B vaccine, and policies on medical equipments surveillance, including disposable syringes, which is considered as source of blood mediated infection), and the periodic changes on each subjects in policies were reviewed. Results : Due to growing social concerns on hepatitis B in early 1980s, swift introduction and production of hepatitis B vaccine was made. After establishment of "5 year project for eradication of hepatitis B" in late 1983, number of vaccinated population jumped up to 6 million within 2 years (1984-85). However, since the immunization targets were mainly adult, not infant, this project was annulled in late 1985. Following this project, hepatitis B mass immunization program in school was carried out. In year 1995, hepatitis B vaccine was included in national immunization program. The use of disposable syringe was recommended from year 1980 but legislated in year 1985, finally. Conclusion : The mainstay in controlling hepatitis B in Republic of Korea was coordination of prompt introduction of vaccine, mass immunization, high vaccination coverage rate, or use of disposable syringes. However, since there is lack of official data available, it is urgent to arrange and computerize all government data related to infectious diseases.

In this paper we designed a current mode logic frequency divider to transmit a baseband amplitude modulated signal. From simulation result, we studied input and output waveforms according to the variation of input bias voltage. For the purpose of the verification of the study, we designed a current mode logic frequency divider at 1,400 MHz. The designed frequency divider operates between 100 MHz and 3,000 MHz, for -33 dBm input power. The circuit draws $I_{total}=30mA$ from $V_{DD}=3V$ supply, and the simulation result shows that an amplitude modulated signal at 1,400 MHz with the modulation index of 0.5 was successfully downconverted to 700 MHz.

The Tactical Internet(TI) managed by Infantry Brigades is used for the purpose of sharing information of Command Control and Situation Awareness. When there are more than two destinations to transmit data in the TI system, a multicasting is utilized based on pre-defined multicast groups. However even in the case when a source node needs to send some messages like weathercast and attack alarm etc to only a part of Battalion or Brigades in a specific geographical region (destination region), the current TI multicasting protocol is designed to transmit the messages to the pre-defined group or all of the Battalion/Brigade nodes, resulting in inefficiency in terms of end-to-end delay and overhead. In this paper, we propose more efficient protocol for such cases, named as "Tactical Internet Geocasting (TIG)". The proposed scheme firstly checks whether the destination region belongs to one Battalion region or more than two Battalion regions using location information, and then performs a greedy forwarding from the source node to the destination region, followed by a local flooding inside of the destination region. With performance analysis and simulations using NS-2, TIG is compared to the current TI multicasting protocol (i.e., Simplified MDP) and the LBM (Location-based Multicast). The simulation results show that the proposed TIG is more efficient than both in terms of delay and network overhead.

This paper reports on our development of a dual-mode transceiver for a CMOS high-rate Bluetooth system-onchip solution. The transceiver includes most of the radio building blocks such as an active complex filter, a Gaussian frequency shift keying (GFSK) demodulator, a variable gain amplifier (VGA), a dc offset cancellation circuit, a quadrature local oscillator (LO) generator, and an RF front-end. It is designed for both the normal-rate Bluetooth with an instantaneous bit rate of 1 Mb/s and the high-rate Bluetooth of up to 12 Mb/s. The receiver employs a dualconversion combined with a baseband dual-path architecture for resolving many problems such as flicker noise, dc offset, and power consumption of the dual-mode system. The transceiver requires none of the external image-rejection and intermediate frequency (IF) channel filters by using an LO of 1.6 GHz and the fifth order onchip filters. The chip is fabricated on a $6.5-mm^{2}$ die using a standard $0.25-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. Experimental results show an in-band image-rejection ratio of 40 dB, an IIP3 of -5 dBm, and a sensitivity of -77 dBm for the Bluetooth mode when the losses from the external components are compensated. It consumes 42 mA in receive ${\pi}/4-diffrential$ quadrature phase-shift keying $({\pi}/4-DQPSK)$ mode of 8 Mb/s, 35 mA in receive GFSK mode of 1 Mb/s, and 32 mA in transmit mode from a 2.5-V supply. These results indicate that the architecture and circuits are adaptable to the implementation of a low-cost, multi-mode, high-speed wireless personal area network.

This paper aims to optimize an access probe algorithm for the CDMA 2000 system. The incremental value of PWR_STEP increases as NUM_STEP as 1dBm±0.2 for access probe of the area with good receiving sensitivity when the mobile station transmits via access channel and does not receive any ACK message. However, for the area with weak receiving sensitivity, according to the algorithm of open-loop power control, the transmitting power amplifier becomes saturated and PWR_STEP incremental value keeps performing access probe to 0dBm±0.2. Therefore interference and battery consumption increases according to the transmission of the mobile station. We have optimized the access probe algorithm according to the receiving sensitivity. We transmit the incremental value of access probe power, with delaying as much RT slot value as indicated by IS-95C standard in case of good receiving sensitivity and with delaying RT+l slot value in case of weak receiving sensitivity. Simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm contributes to decrease of the interference and battery consumption according to the transmitting power of the mobile station and improves the call duration.

In broadband wireless networks, the effective meeting of the QoS guarantees may strongly depend on the Contention Resolution Algorithm used in the uplink contention period. The time it takes a station to transmit a successful request to the base station, or request delay, must be kept low even during periods of high contention. If a request suffers many collisions, it cannot rely on the preemptive scheduler to receive low access delays. However, the conventional collision resolution algorithm has a problem that all collided stations are treated equally regardless of their delay from previous contention periods. Some requests may have very long request delay caused by continuous collisions. In this paper, we propose an adaptive collision resolution algorithm for fast random access in broadband wireless networks. The design goal is to provide quick access to the request with a high number of collisions. To do this, the proposed algorithm separates the whole contention region into multiple sub regions and permits access through each sub region only to the requests with equal number of collisions. The sub region is adaptively created according to the feedback information of previous random access. By simulation, the proposed algorithm can improve the performance in terms of throughput, random delay and complementary distribution of random delay by its ability to isolate higher priorities from lower ones. We can notice the algorithm provides efficiency and random access delay in random access environment.

In order to transmit high-speed wide band signals efficiently in multipath fading environments, M-ary QAM signalling combined with OFDM transmission technique is applied. In this paper, the effect of synchronization error caused by carrier frequency offset and SER(Symbol Error Rate) performance of OFDM-16QAM and OFDM-64QAM are theoretically analyzed. Our result shows that as the number of sub-carrier in OFDM system increases the frequency-offset caused inter-channel interference(ICI) increases significantly, and that an error floor occurs even at high SNR of OFDM system. For OFDM-64QAM, the error floor occurs at SER=1$\times$10-7 when a normalized frequency-offset is 0.001, in which the SNR degradation is much greater than that of OFDM-16QAM. From this study the maximum allowable frequency-offset of OFDM-16QAM and OFDM-64QAM systems can be determined to meet the specific SER requirement.
