Chua's circuit is a simple electronic network which exhibits a variety of bifurcation and attractors. The circuit consists of two capacitors, an inductor, a linear resistor, and a nonlinear resistor. In this paper, a transmitter and a receiver using two identical Chua's circuits are proposed and synchronizations and secure communication of a lossy equivalent transmission are investigated. Since the synchronization of the lossy equivalent transmission system is impossible by coupled synchronization, theory having both the drive-response and the coupled synchronization is proposed. The proposed method is synthesizing the desired information with the chaos circuit by adding the information signal to the chaos signal in the lossy equivalent transmission system.

A turnout system which permits trains to pass from one track to another is a combination of the switch, the crossing, lead rails which are necessary to connect the switch and the crossing, two guard rails and a switch machine for operating the switch. A turnout is the sole moving part among the railway components and has complex configuration, so the safety has always been raised an issue. In Korea, it is planned to adopt the high speed tilting train, which operates at the maximum speed of 180km/h, at conventional lines by the year of 2010. However, for the application of the tilting train to conventional lines, it is prerequisite to establish a stable turnout system allowing the tilting train to pass through it without reducing speed. Therefore, the improved turnout system for the speed-up of conventional lines has been developed and the prototype of the turnout system has been constructed. In this study, evaluation of noise characteristics around the improved turnout system was performed through the field measurements. Field measurements of noise around the conventional and the high-speed turnout system were also carried out for the comparison.

We propose a novel structure of wavelength selective optical add/drop module comprising two tap couplers and a fiber Bragg grating. The device has unique features including a simpler structure and a lower cost of implementation as compared with existing devices for the same operation. The module performance has been measured and analyzed experimentally. The implemented prototype module shows good performance with no-crosstalk power penalty in a 155 Mbps per channel wavelength-division-multiplexing transmission system but suffers from a relatively high loss of 3.5 ㏈ and 21 ㏈ for transmitted and dropped channels, respectively. While the dropped channel extinction ratio was more than 25 ㏈, the transmitted channel extinction ratio was more than 35 ㏈.

In this paper, we proposed an improved weakly-coupled power divider(TAP UNIT) for CATV and/or MATV systems, by which the degree of freedom in design and density of coupling interval are signifcantly increased compared with the intrinsic one even though the turn ratios are still of discrete values. On the other hand, the new design theory of a generalized n-way power divider with arbitrary dividing ratios, for CATV and/or MATV systems, which consists of ideal multiwinding transformers and resistors only was presented. Since the circuit elements is not frequency dependent, the proposed power divider is to be of considerably broad bandwidth. Furthermore, the experimental verification has been achieved, and, hence, the validity of the design theory proposed here is confirmed.

Filter cache has been introduced as one solution of reducing cache power consumption. More than 50% of the power reduction results from the filter cache, whereas more than 20% of the performance is compromised. To minimize the performance degradation of the filter cache, the predictive filter cache has been proposed. In this paper, we review the previous filter cache predictors and analyze the problems of the solutions. As a result, we found main problems that cause prediction misses in previous filter cache schemes and, to resolve the problems, this paper proposes a new prediction policy. In our scheme, some reference bit entries, called MSBs, are inserted into filter cache and BTB, to adaptively control the filter cache access. In simulation parts, we use a modified SimpleScalar simulator with MiBench benchmark programs to verify the proposed filter cache. The simulation result shows in average 5% performance improvement, compared to previous ones.

In this study, the distribution characteristics of diffusers with various shapes that are installed in an open-type thermal storage system are numerically investigated. Four diffusers are designed to distribute a working fluid evenly through the holes on bifurcated pipes. Three-dimensional steady simulations of incompressible laminar flow are conducted using commercial software (ANSYS-FLUENT). The simulation results show that both the bidirectional header-type diffuser and the H-type diffuser distribute the working fluid evenly whereas both the unidirectional and the bidirectional diffusers distribute the working fluid unevenly. The results also show that the H-type diffuser requires a higher head of pump than the bidirectional header-type diffuser. Therefore, the bidirectional header-type diffuser is recommended for use because it enables even distribution of the working fluid and requires a low head of pump.

This paper proposes a H-plane 8-way rectangular waveguide power divider using Y-junction. A general N-way power divider can be composed of multi-stage T-junctions. However, if the distances of output ports are close, the matching characteristic is not improved by using only T-junctions because of space limitation. In this case, since other types of 3-port junctions should be used to final output stage, Y-junctions are used with T-junctions in this paper. The proposed Y-junction uses the tapered-line impedance transformer and inductive irises to improve impedance matching characteristic. The 8-way power divider using Y-junction is fabricated and measured. The measured return loss and insertion loss from input port to output port are -30.8 dB and -9.3 dB at operating frequency, respectively. The measured maximum phase difference is about $1^{\circ}$. Therefore, the proposed power divider will be useful to apply to various microwave systems, which need to divide the input power equally, such as feed networks for array antennas.

Due to spatial problems and system size,conventional measurement methods used to acquire the information needed for existing electrical energy and management have been limited to new buildings or areas where replacement is possible. This electric load management method is problematic when applying it to energy and safety management of vulnerable areas or existing homes or offices. The problem with installing a measurement module in every branch is that the system is too large. Even if the measurement module is installed, the type of load is not recognized, and efficient management is not performed. In particular, it is very difficult to apply it to traditional markets and backward facilities in Korea. In this paper, we apply NIALM technology and arc detection technology to solve these problems and verify the feasibility of NIALM for normal arc generation. Also, based on the verification results, we propose a new smart home safety management system that can effectively manage electrical safety and that can be applied to conventional market and existing home safety management systems. The proposed system conducts a comparative performance test with an existing safety management system. In addition, it achieves 95% or more load recognition for four loads, which is impossible in 40% of the existing systems, and the arc detection function was confirmed.

The paper proposes a chaotic double tent mapping PWM scheme for mitigation the acoustic noise of a motor chive. The chaos area ${\lambda}=0.99$ in bifurcation tree of the double tent mapping is used for generating the chaotic numbers. A 80C196 micro-controller is employed for generation of chaotic numbers, and the triangular carrier with chaotic frequency is obtained by using a 80C196 micro-controller and a MAX038 frequency modulator. The experiments are executed with a 1.5[kw] induction motor chive under the 2.5[A] load condition. As results, the experimental results show that the carrier, voltage and 3-D switching noise spectra of the proposed scheme is spread over the chaotic frequency range with no specific frequency concentration. Thereby, the shrill acoustic noise radiated from a motor chive is reduced by the proposed scheme.
