We have studied an efficient threshold level for desired target detection in radar system in the paper. A desired target searching detection method detects desired target according to changing for false alarm probability. This time, false alarm probability is close relation to threshold level. Low threshold level can improve detection for desired target, but detect noise signal. Therefor, This method is not good one. In this paper, we propose efficient threshold level method in order to estimation for desired target. Through simulation, we are analysis and performance to compare general method with proposal method. We show that proposed method is more good proof than general method.

Evaporative Demand Drought Index (EDDI)는 미국해양대기관리처 (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA)에서 2016년에 개발한 가뭄지표로, 기존의 가뭄지표가 주로 강수량과 기온에 초점을 두고 가뭄을 판단하는 반면 토양의 수분 스트레스의 신호를 바탕으로 증발산수요의 상대적인 변화를 계산하여 가뭄지표에 대한 조기 경보를 제공한다. EDDI는 강수량을 이용한 기존의 가뭄지수와 달리 증발/산 요구량 (evaporative demand)에 초점을 맞춰 보다 짧은 시간의 척도와 공간 분포 및 시계열 결과의 도출로 잠재적 가뭄 예보에 활용할 수 있어 가뭄의 조기 경보 및 가뭄 모니터링 도구로 사용할 수 있다. 현재 NOAA에서는 EDDI Map Archive(https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/eddi/)를 활용하여 1980년부터 현재까지 1-week부터 12-months 시간척도의 미국 전역의 EDDI 지도를 제공하고 있으며, 짧은 기간의 급속하게 발생하는(rapid-onset) Flash drought의 조기경보지표로 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근 3년간 우리나라에 발생한 극심한 가뭄 사상을 대상으로 EDDI의 적용함으로서 시공간적 가뭄 특성을 파악하고자 한다.

국내에서는 지상파 디지털 모바일 방송 표준을 T-DMB(Terrestrial-Digital Multimedia Broadcasting)로 채택하여 상용화 하였다. 현재 재난 발생 시 T-DMB 시스템에서는 Fast Information Channel(FIC)를 이용한 재난 경보 방송을 방송 영역의 가입자들에게 동시에 전달한다. 하지만 일본의 대지진과 같은 긴급한 상황에서 가입자가 재난 경보의 수신을 실패할 때는 큰 피해를 입을 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 DMB와 재난정보의 다중 전송 기법을 이용하여 가입자의 수신 효율을 높일 수 있는 방법을 제시 한다.

An intelligent safety vehicle(ISV) should have an ability to predict the possibility of an accident and help a driver avoid the accident in advance. The basic function of the ISV is to alert the driver by warning when the collision is to occur. For this purpose, the ISV has to function efficiently in sensing the environmental context. While image processing provides lane information, laser radar senses road obstacles including vehicles. By applying a simple clustering algorithm to radar signals, it is possible to obtain the vehicle information. Consequently, we can identify the existence of the vehicle of interest on my lane. The reliability of the sensing algorithm is evaluated by running on the highway with a test vehicle.

한국수자원공사에서는 1998년부터 단계적으로 12~14 GHz의 Ku-band 대역을 사용하고 있는 무궁화위성을 이용하여 우량 및 수위, 경보 등의 데이터를 송수신하고 있으며, 특히 강우가 집중되는 기간 동안에는 그 데이터의 필요성이 더욱 큰 실정이다. 사용하고 있는 위성통신망 주파수의 파장은 2~2.5 cm 이므로 물방울 입자에 의해 산란되는 특징을 가지고 있으며, 이로 인해 안테나 및 휘드혼의 표면에 물방울이 묻어 있으면 전파가 산란되어 신호가 감쇠되는 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 강우시 안테나 및 휘드혼 표면에 발생하는 물방울 맺힘 현상에 대해 물방울과 전파신호간의 상관관계를 분석하고, 위성안테나 성능을 개선방안을 시험하여, 강우로 인한 위성신호의 감쇠를 최소화하여, 최적화된 안테나 성능 구현으로 강우 영향을 최소화하여 안정적인 위성단말국을 운영하고자 한다.

고리 2호기 주급수 차단밸브의 경우 다른 호기와는 달리 구동용 질소압력 측정스위치에 의한 닫힘 연동신호가 설치되어 있다. 이러한 연동신호는 벨브 구동용 반구내 질소 압력 스위치 "고" 오동작에 의한 밸브차단 가능성이 있으며 이 경우 질소압력스위치가 저/고 경보창에 COMMON되어 있어 원인 규명에 어려움이 있다. 또한 질소압력 스위치 고장 및 질소가스 누설시 작업수행이 어렵고 위험이 따른다. 이러한 70년대 발전소 설계의 과잉설비를 제거하므로서 최적운전과 경제성 향상에 기여할 수 있으며 아울러 유지정비의 용이성과 밸브 불시닫힘을 미연에 예방할 수 있으리라 예상된다. 이와 관련하여 발전소 계통안전성, 기기안전성을 평가한 결과 기존의 안전해석결과가 유효하며 또한 FSAR 수정없이 이러한 설비변경이 가능하다는 결론에 도달하였다.결론에 도달하였다.

In this paper, a two-phase structural health monitoring system using acceleration response signatures are presented to firstly alarm the change in structural condition and to secondly detect the changed location for full-scale concrete girder bridges. Firstly, Mihocheon Bridge which is a two-span continuous concrete girder bridge is selected as the target structure. The dynamic response features of Mihocheon Bridge are extracted by forced vibration test using bowling ball. Secondly, the damage alarming occurrence and the damage localization techniques are selected to design two-phase structural health monitoring system for Mihocheon Bridge. As the damage alarming techniques, auto-regressive model using time-domain signatures, correlation coefficient of frequency response function and frequency response ratio assurance criterion are selected. As the damage localization technique, modal strain energy-based damage index method is selected. Finally, the feasibility of two-phase structural health monitoring systems is evaluated from static loading tests using a dump truck.

In parallel with the development of ship equipment, bridge systems have been improved, but marine accidents due to human error have not been reduced. Recently, research in nautical bridge equipment has focused on suitable ergonomic designs in order to reduce these errors due to human factors. In a bridge of a ship, there are numerous auditory signals that deliver important information clearly to the sailors. However, only a few studies have been conducted related to the human recognition of these auditory signals. There are three types of auditory signals: voice alarms, abstract sounds, and auditory icons. This study was conducted in order to design more appropriate auditory icons using a sensibility evaluation method. The auditory icons were rated to have five warning situations (engine failure, fire, steering failure, low power, and collision) using the Semantic Differential Method. It is expected that the results of this study will be used as basic data for auditory displays inside bridges and for integrated bridge alarm systems.

In this paper, hybrid health monitoring techniques using acceleration-impedance features are newly proposed to detect two damage-type in steel plate-girder bridges, which are girder's stiffness-loss and support perturbation. The hybrid techniques mainly consists of three sequential phases: 1) to alarm the occurrence of damage in global manner, 2) to classify the alarmed damage into subsystems of the structure, and 3) to estimate the classified damage in detail using methods suitable for the subsystems. In the first phase, the global occurrence of damage is alarmed by monitoring changes in acceleration features. In the second phase, the alarmed damage is classified into subsystems by recognizing patterns of impedance features. In the final phase, the location and the extent of damage are estimated by using modal strain energy-based damage index method and root mean square deviation (RMSD) method. The feasibility of the proposed hybrid technique is evaluated on a laboratory-scaled steel plate-girder bridge model for which hybrid acceleration-impedance signatures were measured for several damage scenarios. Also, the effect of temperature on the accuracy of the impedance-based damage monitoring results are experimentally examined from combined scenarios of support damage cases and temperature changes.

In modern society, development of medical technology has extended the human life span. However, it has also caused some side-effects. Mostly old people who live alone are not available the medical service quickly when they are in emergency situations. Moreover heart related diseases as well are rapidly increasing with aging. This study proposes the emergency medical alarm system. This system measures the physiological signals such as ECG(electrocardiogram), temperature, and motion data, analyzes those data automatically, and sends the urgent message to the Emergency Medical Center and to their family. There are two main parts in the system. In the first part, physiological data acquisition part, the troublesome addition and deletion of body signals on existing proposed systems have been supplemented, which led to the modulized production by means of ECG sensor module, temperature sensor module, acceleration sensor module. The other part is mobile unit, which includes signal processing and transmission functions. And bluetooth allows two parts to communicate with each other. Data that are processed in the mobile unit are stored in the PC database through the WLAN using TCP/IP protocol.
