In this paper, We have proposed an Heterodyne technique to generate millimeter-wave signal. Microwave signals in cellular broadband mobile communication networks and distributed networks can favorably be generated and distributed by optical techniques. In principle, these techniques have already been investigated for optical control of phase-array antennas, characterization of photo-detector and phase locking of millimeter-wave oscillators and now being applied to wireless communications. The generation and transmission of millimeter-wave radio signals by optical means is of interest for future pico-cell broadband mobile communication system, especially for systems operating at frequencies of 300GHz.

In this paper, we have proposed and experimentally performed a polarization and phase control method of an optical signal which has same wavelength with the optical carrier to improve phase characteristics of a continuous wave(CW) generated by the double sideband-suppressed carrier(DSB-SC) as one of the famous photomixing technique for making sub-millimeter and terahertz waves. A polarization and phase controlled optical signal has been coupled with the general DSB-SC on an optical coupler. The output of the optical coupler is then photomixed by a photomixer. From our analysis and measurement results, we have found that the amplitude of the generated sub-mm and terahertz CW signal is higher 1.5 dB and the phase noise is lower about 3 dB@10 kHz offset frequency than the general DSBSC. Consequently, since our proposed method has improved the amplitude and phase noise of CW signals in the sub-mm and terahertz bands, it can be helpful results to make low cost CW generator in sub-millimeter and subterahertz bands.

The monitoring and investigation of underwater landslide help to understand its mechanism, increase the usefuless of design and construction and reduce the losses. This paper presents three high resolution geophysical techniques electrical resisitance, ultrasonic wave reflection imaging, and shear wave tomography conducted to determine the lab-scaled submerged landslide. Electrical resistance profiles of a soil mass obtained by an electrical resistance probe provide detailed information to assess the spatial distribution of the soil mass with milimetric resolution. An ultrasonic wave image obtained by recording the reflections from interfaces of different impedance materials permits detecting layers and landslide with submilimetric resolution. The pixel based image of immersed landslides is created by the inversion of the boundary information achieved from the traveling time of shear waves. The experimental results show that the ultrasonic wave imaging and the electrical resistance can provide complementary information; and their association with S-wave tomography image can produce a 3-D view of the underwater landslide. This study suggests that geophysical techniques may be effective tools for the detection of the underwater landslides and spatial distribution offshore.

An Adaptive Positive Position Feedback method is presented for controlling the roll of the supersonic smart projectile. The proposed strategy combines the attractive attributes of Positive Position Feedback(PPF) of Goh and Caughey, and Lyapunov stability theorem. The parameters of Adaptive-PFF controller are adjusted in an adaptive mauler in order to follow the performance of an optimal reference model. In this way, optimal damping and zero steady-state errors can be achieved even in the presence of uncertain or changing plant parameters. The performance obtained with the Adaptive-PPF algorithm is compared with conventional PPF control algorithm. The results obtained emphasize the potential of Adaptive-PPF algorithm as an efficient means for controlling plants such as supersonic flight systems with uncertainties in real time.

The ultrasonic sensor used in autonomous mobile robot and autonomous guided vehicle(A.G.V.) is not available for long range measurement. And as the performance of autonomous mobile robot and A.G.V. improves, the importance of the range sensor for long range measurement is increasing. In this paper, we introduce the range sensor for long range measurement using milimeter wave sensor and propose the structure of that system.

별 탄생 과정은 코어라 불리는 고밀도의 분자운이 중력붕괴를 거쳐 중심에 원시성을 만들고 원반을 통해 코어로부터 원시성으로 물질을 유입하는 과정이다. 이 과정에서 방출되는 광자는 원반이나 envelope에 있는 먼지 티끌들에 의해 흡수되어 적외선이나 서브밀리미터 영역에서 재 방출된다. 뿐만 아니라, 가스도 outflow에 의한 충격파 등에 의해 수 백도이상까지 데워져 적외선 영역에서 방출선을 만들게 된다. 그러므로 별 탄생 연구에 있어서 적외선 관측은 매우 중요하다. 최근 고감도, 고분해능의 적외선 우주 망원경들의 활약으로 별 탄생 과정에 대한 이해가 한 층 깊어지고 있기에, 이들 적외선 우주 망원경들을 이용한 별 탄생 관련 연구들을 소개하고자 한다.

This paper presents the reflection and transmission measurements conducted at the 60GHz suitable to provide a high speed wide band service. Mean received power and standard deviation are calculated and used to compare the characteristics of radio wave propagation to the various obstacles between transmitting and receiving antennas at the frequency. The results show that the transmitted signal strength by the steel door and copper plate are about 40dB lower than in free space, those by the rubber plate, glass and styroform are about 3dB lower than in free space. Also, the re(looted signal strengths at the 60 degree grazing angle show that in case by the partition is about 23dB lower, by the surface of a wall is about 6dB lower than by the copper plate. The presented results can be used for the design of 60 GHz picocell communication network that the reflected and transmitted waves affect to the service area.

인공위성을 이용한 범 지구 위치결정시스템인 GPS(Global Positioning System)는 수 밀리의 정밀도로 정적, 동적 위치측정이 가능한 시스템으로 교량, 건축물, 댐 등 각종 구조물의 미세한 변위를 측정하는데 이용되고 있다. 최근 국내에서도 대형구조물의 변위 측정에 GPS를 활용하려는 시도가 부분적으로 이루어지고 있으나 초보적인 단계이며 체계적인 연구가 이루어지지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 RTK(Real Time Kinematic) GPS로 구조물의 변위를 실시간 측정하고 모니터링 할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 먼저 예비실험으로 반송파의 차분에 의해서 증폭되는 수신기의 측정잡음 오차, 다중경로 오차, GDOP(Geometric Dilution of Precision)가 RTK GPS의 위치정확도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 그리고, RTK GPS를 이용하여 마포대교를 관측한 결과, 수 센티미터 정도 발생하는 구조물의 변위를 3차원으로 정밀 관측할 수 있었으며, 본 연구에서 개발한 모니터링프로그램을 이용하여 구조물의 거동을 실시간으로 모니터링 할 수 있었다.

It is well-known that even the DGNSS (Differential Global Navigation Satellite System) technique in navigation for ground vehicles can only provide several meters of accuracy, such that it is suitable for simple guidance. On the other hand, centimeter to millimeter level accuracy can be obtained by using carrier phase observables in the field of precision geodesy/surveying. In this study, a preliminary study was conducted to apply NRTK (Network-RTK) by NGII (National Geographic Information Institute) to ground vehicle navigation. Onboard GNSS receivers were used for NRTK throughout the country, and the applicability of NRTK on navigation was analyzed based on NRTK surveying results. The analysis shows that the overall ambiguity fixing rate of NRTK is high and is therefore possible to apply it for navigation. In urban areas, however, the fixing rate decreases sharply, therefore, it needs to employ a method to minimize the effect of the float solutions, which can reach up to 10 meters. It is still feasible to obtain a centimeter level of accuracy in some area using NRTK under certain conditions. But, the ambiguity fixing rate of FKP falls down to 55% for high speed vehicles, and so the surveying accuracy should be determined by considering various factors of surveying environments. In addition, it is difficult to fix ambiguities using single-frequency GPS receivers. Finally, several suspicious NRTK(FKP) connection problems occurred during atmospheric disturbances (phase two or up), which should be investigated further in upcoming research.
