광섬유와 평면 도파로를 결합한 도파로 구조에서 광 결합 현상은 다양한 응용 가능성 때문에 이론적으로 또는 실험적으로 많은 연구가 되어오고 있다. 광섬유는 단일모드를 이용하고 적당한 곡률이 주어진 블록에 고정한 후 연마하여 클래딩의 일부를 제거하고, 그 상부에 다중모드 평면 도파로(Multi-Mode Overlay Waveguide; MMOW)를 구성한다. 제작된 결합기 구조에서 평면 도파로는 광섬유의 감쇠장 결합(Evanescent field coupling)을 유도하게 되므로, 소자의 특성은 평면 도파로의 구조와 조건에 의해 결정된다.

과거 전화교환사업에 있어서 치국점을 결정하는 가장 중요한 요소는 동선로의 기술적인 성능한계였다. 즉, 전력과 신호를 동시에 공급하는 동선로가 갖는 감쇠제한과 신호제한을 극복할수 있는 위치에 전화국을 건설하여 왔다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나, 광통신 기술의 발전과, VoIP의 출현에 따라 이와 같은 제한요소들은 점차 극복되기에 이르렀고, 과거 통신사업자의 중대한 고민이었던 치국의 중요성은 점점 감소하고 있다. 특히, 신도시, u-City 개발 등을 통하여, 통신 인프라가 구축되어있지 않은 지역(본 고에서는 신규개발지역이라고 함.)의 통신망계획에 있어서, 통신사업자들은 현재의 가용한 기술을 최대한 활용하여 경제적이고도 효율적인 통신망을 구축하고자 시도하여야 할 것이다. 그럼에도, 기존의 통신 사업자가 쉽게 전화 서비스를 광통신 인프라로 전환하기 어려운 것은 VoIP 기술을 차용한 전화 서비스가 시내전화사업으로 인정받기 위해서는 긴급통신의 제공과 함께 정전시 통화기능을 필수적으로 구현하여야 한다는 점에 있다. 이에, 본 고에서는 인터넷 접속과 전화를 동시에 제공할 수 있는 대표적인 솔루션을 정형화하고, 각 모델별 전력공급방안에 관하여 고찰하고자 한다.

PLLIF(Planar Laser Liquid Induced Fluorescence) 기법은 분무장을 교란시키지 않고 고해상도의 2차원 질량분포를 빠르게 측정할 수 있기 때문에 기존의 기계적인 분무 분포 측정방법의 한계를 극복하였을 뿐만 아니라 접근이 불가능하였던 인젝터 근방의 분무에 대한 중요한 정보를 제공하고 있다. 그러나 레이저 광을 받은 액적에 의한 산란광의 강도가 클 경우에는 인접한 액적들을 형광시킬 수 있고 액적의 형광신호가 액적들을 통과하면서 감쇠되는 이차산란에 의한 오차는 PLLIF 기법의 정량화에 가장 큰 난점으로 인식되고 있다. 특히 이러한 현상은 분무 분포의 밀도가 높고 액적의 크기가 클수록 강하게 나타나는데, 액체로켓에서 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 like-doublet 인젝터는 이러한 분무 특성을 갖는다. 따라서 Mechanical Patternator 및 PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer)로부터 측정한 like-doublet 인젝터의 분무 질량 분포 결과와 비교하여 이차산란에 의한 오차를 파악하여 PLLIF 기법의 적용 가능성을 진단하였다.

In this study, we prepared and characterized a acrylate based UV-curable plastic scintillator. It was used co-polymers TMPTA, DHPA and Ultima $Gold^{TM}$ LLT organic scintillator. The emission spectrum of the plastic scintillator was located in the range of 380~520 nm, peaking at 423 nm. And the scintillator is more than 50% transparent in the range of 400~800 nm. The emission spectrum is well match to the quantum efficiency of photo-multiplier tube and the fast decay time of the scintillation is 12 ns, approximately. This scintillation material provides the possibility of combining 3D printing technology, and then the applications of the plastic scintillator may be expected in human dosimetry etc.

A Visual Light Communication(VLC) system is a concept of converging illumination with communication. Design of the VLC system aims mainly at minimizing flicker for the illumination and maximizing transmission distance for the communication. This paper proposes an effective detection scheme of the transmitted signal by attenuating noises which may be included in the signal, and then presents implementation results. Inserting designated low and high pass filters in first and second implementations, the receiver became to improve the perception rate of transmitted signals. This verified a relatively higher possibility of receiving data in a dim light, so that the communication distance can be expanded in the visual light communication system.

This paper presents the vibration reduction algorithm at the walking-will recognition sensors on the uneven terrain. Recently, concern about walking assistant aids is increasing according to the increase in population of elder and handicapped person. However, most of walking aids don't have any actuators for its movement. So, general walking aids have weakness for its movement to upward/download direction of slope. To overcome the weakness of the general walking aids, many researches for active type walking aids are being progressed. Especially, vibration analysis and impulse reduction are one of the important elements of the active-type walking aid during moving on the outdoor area because the ground has many kinds of obstacles such as speed dumps, puddles and so on. So, we analyze the influence from vibration by uneven terrain. And then, we propose the impulse reduction algorithm to overcome the vibration. All the processes are verified experimentally in an active-type walking aid.

Robust and high speed underwater communication is severely limited when compared to communications in terrestial. In free space, RF communication operates over long distances at high data rates. However, the obstacle in seawater is the severe attenuation due to the conducting nature. Acoustic modems are capable of long range communication up to several tens of kilometers, but it has low data-rate, high power consumption and low propagation speed. An alternative means of underwater communication is based on optics, wherein high data rates are possible. In this paper, the characteristics of underwater channel in the range of visible wavelength is investigated. And the possibility of optical wireless communication in underwater is also described. The LED-based transceiver and CMOS sensor module are integrated in the system, and the performance of image transmission was demonstrated.

The down-converter of the WCDMA Digital Optic Repeater is developed. Based on the system specifications, the structure of the down-converter is accomplished and its block diagram is drawn. The down-converter is implemented according to these block diagrams. Subsequently a low pass filter, an automatic level controlled attenuator, a frequency synthesizer and other components for the down-converter are designed and implemented, and a main board to integrate these modules is also manufactured. To reduce the noise floor of system and suppress the RF spurious noise, a PCB layout is performed carefully. For each module consisting of the down-converter and the entire system, the performance tests are accomplished to check the performance about the specifications.

In this paper, channel modeling and analysis of wireless visible light communication(VLC) were studied in indoor circumstance. Photons emitted from LED straightly moved and navigated within indoor, after that a part of photons reached on PD via LOS(Line Of Sight) or NLOS(None Line Of Sight). These received signals had characteristics of delay profile and attenuation, which was multiple-path fading. In this paper, computer simulation of VLC channel was executed under the condition that two LEDs were used for transmitter and three PDs were located at different positions of the 20*8*2.3m sized indoor. BER performance simulation was excuted based on the characteristics of each VLC channel.
