This paper presents an adaptive repetitive control scheme for optical disk drives to track a variable periodic reference signal. Periodic disturbances can be adequately attenuated using the concept of repetitive control, provided the period is known. Because optical disk drives support various speeds, they have the varying periodic disturbances. Based on repetitive control to change sampling frequency to follow the change of reference period, an adaptive repetitive control is proposed in order to deal with such disturbances. The proposed control consists of the repetitive controller and the frequency generator. The former uses a varying sampler operating at fixed multiple times of the disturbance frequency and the latter generates the changeable sampling frequency based on the disturbance frequency. The experimental results on the control of an optical disk drive demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes and the improvement of random access time as well.

This paper presents a design of the successive approximation ADC(SA-ADC) applicable to a midium-low speed analog-front end(AFE) for the maximum 15MS/s CCD image processing. SA-ADC is effective in applications ranging widely between low and mid data rates due to the large power scaling effect on the operating frequency variations in some other way of pipelined ADCs. The proposed design exhibits some distinctive features. The "differential capacitor-coupling scheme" segregates the input sampling behavior from the sub-DAC incorporating the differential input and the sub-DAC output, which prominently reduces the loading throughout the signal path. Determining the MSB(sign bit) from the held input data in advance of the data conversion period, a kind of the signed successive approximation, leads to the reduction of the sub-DAC hardware overhead by 1 bit and the conversion period by 1 cycle. Characterizing the proposed design in a 3.3 V $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS process by Spectre simulations verified its validity of the application to CCD analog front-ends.

ITO(Indium Tin Oxide)는 전도도와 투과도 특성이 뛰어나 디스플레이, 태양전지, LED 등 여러 산업에서 전극 물질로 널리 사용 되어져 왔다. 최근 ITO의 사용이 급격히 증가하면서 이에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. ITO는 막의 특성을 좋게 하기 위하여 증착 시 Ar gas와 함께 $O_2$가스를 첨가하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 산소 분압에 따른 ITO 박막의 전기적, 광학적 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. Corning사의 eagle 2000 glass 기판위에 스퍼터링을 이용하여 ITO layer를 증측하였고, 증착시, $O_2$ partial pressure를 0 - 0.5%까지 0.1% 간격으로 가변하였다. 증착된 샘플은 Sinton사의 UV-vis 장비를 이용하여 광학적 특성을 측정하였고, Hall measurement 장비를 이용하여 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. ITO 박막은 $O_2$의 partial pressure가 증가할수록 향상된 전기적, 광학적 특성을 나타내었다.

This paper presents an accurate recovery method of the reference clock which is needed for network synchronization in two-way satellite multimedia systems compliant with DVB-RCS specification and which use closed loop method for burst synchronization. In these systems, the remote station transmits TDMA burst via return link. For burst synchronization, it obtains reference clock from program clock reference (PCR) defined by MPEG-2 system specification. The PCR is generated periodically at the hub system by sampling system clock which runs at 27MHz $\pm$ 30ppm. Since the reference clock is recovered by means of digital PLL(DPLL) using imprecise PCR values due to variable random jitter, the recovered clock frequency of remote station doesn't exactly match reference clock of hub station. We propose a robust recovery method of reference clock against random delay jitter The simulation results show that the recovery error is remarkably decreased from 5 clocks to 1 clock of 27MHz relative to the general DPLL recovery method.

이차원 노즐을 통하여 저밀도 환경으로 팽창하는 희박류의 분석에 있어서 불연속좌표법과 결합된 유한차분법(finite-difference method coupled with the discrete-ordinate method, FDDO)과 직접모사법(direct-simulation Monte-Carlo method, DSMC)이 비교되었다. FDDO를 이용한 분석에서는 충돌적분모델을 도입하여 간단해진 볼츠만식(Boltzmann equation)이 불연속좌표법을 이용하여 물리적 공간에서는 연속이나 분자속도 공간에서는 불연속좌표로 표시되는 편미분방정식군으로 변환되어 유한차분법에의하여 수치해석 되었다. 직접모사법에서는 분자모델로 가변강구모델(variable hard sphere model, VHS)이, 충돌샘플링모델로는 비시계수법(no time counter method, NTC)이 채택되었다. 전혀 다른 두 가지 방법에 의한 노즐 내부에서의 유체흐름 해석결과는 매우 잘 일치하였으며, 노즐 외부의 plume 영역에서는 FDDO에 의한 해석결과가 직접모사법에 의한 해석결과에 비하여 약간 느린 팽창을 보였다.

In object based coding, binary shape ccx:ling plays an important role by ccx:ling the outer shape of object. Here we propose a new shape ccx:ling tool, which enccx:les the outline of shape from a baseline. Different from 2-D (Vertex) shape ccx:ling algorithms. the proposed method encodeds the data that are extracted in a I-D fashion. The enccx:led data consist of the starting position, distance lists, and turning point lists. In the lossless ccx:ling mode, every contour pixel is input for ccx:ling, whereas variable sampling has been employed to enccx:le fewer contour pixels while preserving reasonable distortion. For interframe ccx:ling, a fast motion compensation was achieved by use of distance and turning point lists. Subjective viewing tests proved that the proposed method outperforms the current shape ccx:ling standard, CAE, in MPEG-4. In objective results for compression efficiency, the proposed method was significantly better in intraframe coding than CAE, whereas CAE was better in interframe ccx:ling.

This paper describes an implementation of the analog front end (AFE) incorporated with the image signal processing (ISP) unit in the SoC, dominating the performance of the CCD image sensor system. New schemes are exploited in the high-frequency sampling to reduce the sampling uncertainty apparently as the frequency increases, in the structure for the wide-range variable gain amplifier (VGA) capable of $0{\sim}36\;dB$ exponential gain control to meet the needed bandwidth and accuracy by adopting a new parasitic insensitive capacitor array. Moreover, the double cancellation of the black-level noise was efficiently achieved both in the analog and the digital domain. The proposed topology fabricated in a $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS process was proved in a full CCD camera system of 10-bit accuracy, dissipating 80 mA at 15 MHz with a 3.3 V supply voltage.

This paper proposes a selectively cumulative sum (S-CUSUM) control chart with variable sampling intervals (VSI) for detecting shifts in the process mean. The basic idea of the VSI S-CUSUM chart is to adjust sampling intervals and to accumulate previous samples selectively in order to increase the sensitivity. The VSI S-CUSUM chart employs a threshold limit to determine whether to increase sampling rate as well as to accumulate previous samples or not. If a standardized control statistic falls outside the threshold limit, the next sample is taken with higher sampling rate and is accumulated to calculate the next control statistic. If the control statistic falls within the threshold limit, the next sample is taken with lower sampling rate and only the sample is used to get the control statistic. The VSI S-CUSUM chart produces an 'out-of-control' signal either when any control statistic falls outside the control limit or when L-consecutive control statistics fall outside the threshold limit. The number L is a decision variable and is called a 'control length'. A Markov chain model is employed to describe the VSI S-CUSUM sampling process. Some useful formulae related to the steady state average time-to signal (ATS) for an in-control state and out-of-control state are derived in closed forms. A statistical design procedure for the VSI S-CUSUM chart is proposed. Comparative studies show that the proposed VSI S-CUSUM chart is uniformly superior to the VSI CUSUM chart or to the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) chart with respect to the ATS performance.
