In this paper, we present a method to extract a moving object and to measure the distance to it by using the stereo vision system. The moving factor is to be extracted through a match of a pixel unit for the moving object where the adaptive threshold is effectively dealt with to remove changes in the brightness of the image. The distance to moving object is measured by using a stereo vision system which employs a parallel camera. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm could be effectively applied to distance measurement to moving object because it has an average error of one percent.

Dose distribution of point source represents an inverse square law as the distance, Difference of measurement value and calculation value according to moving distance of radiation source show very large error in dose calculation of Brachytherapy. Therefore, in RALS of high dose rate, dose calculation have an important effect in treatment of uterine cervix cancer and recurrent rate. In this paper, authors measured moving distance of radiation source carrying out RALS. And we measured Rectum dose compared with calculationdose.

Range-based real time localization systems require superior localization techniques as well as accurate ranging algorithms for better performance. To evaluate the ranging accuracy between two nodes in practical environments, this paper does not only present a qualitative analysis by computing a distance equation under SDS-TWR measurement model of no symmetry assumption, but also executes a quantitative evaluation by doing experiments after building up a test network employing the developed sensor node. Experimental results show that the ranging accuracy of the proposed implementation of IEEE 802.15.4a software stack is superior with smaller average error rate by 60% to one of the commercial Nanotron's reference development kit.

The performance of satellite range measurement using tone method was analyzed in the presence of satellite link AWGN. The phase errors in range measurement are generated by AWGN of satellite up- and down-link and the degradations of satellite range measurement are dependent on the transmission mode and loop bandwidth of satellite measurement system. The analyzed effects for satellite measurement in presence of satellite link noise were also analyzed with the measured satellite range data via satellite range measurement system operating in satellite link AWGN. In RAU mode, the satellite range differences of 14.4 to 40.6 m were occurred according to the loop bandwidth of satellite range measurement system and the degradation of 0.3 dB compared with theoretical value was generated under condition of the signal-to-noise ratio of 43 dB. In RAU and TM mode, the performances of range measurement were approximately agreed to the that of RAU mode. In order to get the equal performance characteristics with RAU mode, the signal-to-noise ratio of satellite link for RAU and TM mode should be increased by signal power of 2.3 dB, which is a power loss due to transmission of telemetry signal.

Because ubiquitous environment has come with growing IT technology, Researches wireless sensor network are actively on going in many aspects. In this paper, we proposed simple method of distance measurement for omnidirectional distance calculation in wireless sensor network. In addition, we design and implement the proposed method. Then, we verify it through experiments at real environments. when we use the proposed method, maximum distance of measurement is decreased, but we measure distance from degrees. In this paper, we show drop rate and accuracy rate of ultrasonic distance estimation with and without omnidirectional device through experiments at real environments.

One-way laser ranging technology is applied for the precise orbit determination of LRO, which is the first trial for supporting the missions of lunar or planetary spacecraft. In this paper, LRO payload and ground system are discussed for LRO laser ranging, and some errors effecting on time of flight and tracking mount accuracy are analyzed. Additionally several technologies are also analyzed to make laser pulses shot from ground stations to arrive in the LRO earth window. Measurement data of LRO laser ranging verified that these technologies could be implemented for one-way laser ranging of lunar spacecraft.

In the distance measurement system the time-to-digital conversion circuit used measures the distance using the time interval between the start signal and the stop signal. The time interval is generally converted to digital information using a counter circuit considering the response speed. Therefore, a clock signal with a high frequency is required to improve precision, and a clock signal with a high frequency is also required to measure fine distances. In this paper, a counter circuit was designed to increase the accuracy of distance measurement while using the same frequency. The circuit design was performed using a 0.18㎛ CMOS process technology, and the operation of the designed circuit was confirmed through HSPICE simulation. As a result of the simulation, it is possible to obtain an improvement of four times the precision compared to the case of using a general counter circuit.

We propose a method to measure the number of specific species of class using CAFFE model and a method to measure length and width of object using stereo vision. To obtain the width of an object, the location coordinates of objects appearing on the left and right sensor is compared and the distance from the sensor to the object is obtained. Then the length of the object in the image by using the distance and the approximate value of the actual length of the object is calculated.

A amplitude modulation(AM) range measuring system utilizes the phase difference of the modulated envelope of the reflected signal to measure the distance. It is known that the AM system has a problem in accuracy due to antenna leakage signals and spurious reflection signals, but an AM range measurement system using an active reflector, which shifts the frequency bands, has been proposed in order to minimize the measurement errors due to spurious signals. In this paper, a new phase measurement module for the AM range measurement system, which enables to measure long distance with good accuracy, is proposed. The modulation frequency is alternatively selected between 8 and 1 MHz, and the measured distance range with this module is up to 150 m within 2 cm accuracy. A JK flip-flop circuit is used for higher phase accuracy, and an XOR circuit is used to cover long distance.
