In the active SONAR system, various studies have been carried out to enhance the resolution of a received signal. In order to obtain higher resolution for detecting a bottoming cylindrical object, the design of a planar array for SONAR is investigated in this paper. It is necessary to employ planar structures for SONAR array to obtain narrower beam pattern which gives high resolution. In this study, the transmit frequency of each acoustic transducer, which consists of an array is 13 kHz. For efficient detection of a target of an asymmetric size, the concept of areal angle is applied, which considers resolution according to both azimuth and elevation angles in array design. In the design, the areal angle is first investigated to satisfy the resolution requirements, and then based on the value of areal angles, the azimuth angle and the elevation angle are calculated respectively to design an array.

A Frequency domain beamforming technique is widely used in sonar systems with a large number of beams and sensors. In the battlefield environment requiring real-time signal processing, it is needed to optimize the computational complexity of the spectrum computation to implement an efficient and fast frequency domain beamformer. So, in this paper, we proposed the pruned-GSFFT (pruned generalized sliding fast Fourier transform) as a new spectrum computation method. The proposed method help to reduce the computational complexity of the real-time partial spectrum computation by eliminating the redundancy between consecutive input samples and skipping the regardless frequency bands. Also the characteristics of the proposed pruned-GSFFT method and its computational complexity are compared to those of previous FFT algorithms.

In order to predict acoustic pressure distributions by exterior incident wave at Cylindrical Hydrophone Array (CHA) sensor's positions, acoustic pressure analysis is performed by using beam tracing method. Beam tracing method is well-known of reliable pressure analysis methods at high-frequency range. When an acoustic noise source is located at the center of rectangular room, acoustic pressure analysis is performed by using both beam tracing method and Power Flow Boundary Element Method (PFBEM). By comparing with results of beam tracing method and those of PFBEM, the accuracy of beam tracing method is verified. We develop the CHA pressure analysis program by verified beam tracing method. The developed software is composed of model input, sensor array creator, analysis option, solver and post-processor. We can choose a model option of 2D or 3D. The sensor array generator is connected to a sonar which is composed of center position, bottom, top and angle between sensors. We also can choose an analysis option such as analysis frequency, beam number, reflect number, etc. The solver module calculates the ray paths, acoustic pressure and result of generating beams. We apply the program to 2D and 3D CHA models, and their results are reliable.

In this paper, we propose a wireless video transmission system, providing medium and long communication distance in the 5.8GHz band to decrease the loss of video data. Beamforming with multiple antennas in a radio environment to enable more than 10km communication distance and an image transmission method that combines the retransmission to MCS(modulation and coding scheme) are applied. By applying the proposed method in the indoor environment of 80dB attenuation using the payload size of 1000 bytes, the packet loss rate of at least 0.92% is achieved through the FPING with the time-out of 10ms. The transmission distance of 21.2Km is achieved with the transmission rate of 13Mbps in the outdoor environment.

A TPMS is a wireless communication system designed to monitor its condition inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. These systems report the tire pressure information to the driver of the vehicle. While wireless communications is used to transmit the measurement data from TPMS sensors to a central processing unit in the vehicle, it suffers from the various interferences such as sensors of each tire or outside electrical equipments. Based on the conventional beamformer, a switching beamforming technique is proposed to minimize the interference and efficiently receive valid data. Moreover, in order to minimize the interference and reduce power consumption for communication, a system with unique Gold Code is presented for each tire. The performance of interference suppression is illustrated by computer simulations.

Field emission behaviors from diamond-like carbon films were investigated. The films were deposited on n-type Si wafer by ion beam sputtering method using 3 cm Kaufman type ion source. Regardless of the film thicknesses and atomic bond structure, the emission current was much enhanced by electrical breakdown between anode and the film surface. The effective work function was estimated to be about 0.1 eV. In order to identify the emission site, tungsten tip was scanned the damaged region damaged region but localized to a specific site. Analysis using Auger electron spectroscopy and SEM shows that SiC compound was not a sufficient condition for the electron emission. This result showed that the enhanced emission was mainly due to the changes in the chemical bond of the damaged region rather than the enhanced electric field caused by the morphological change.

An air-to-ground guidance missile aimed to hit a main battle tank(MBT) should detect a ground moving target and estimate the target position to guide. In this paper, we detect a front ground moving target by using FMCW(Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) and estimate the position by forward-looking SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) via scanning certain front ground section by steering a beam with narrow beamwidth left to right mechanically. Also, by MLE(Maximum Likelihood Estimation), degree of how fast the target approach or recede from the radar can be figured out from the estimated radial velocity of the moving target. Subsequently, we generate a radar image via corrected matched filter from phase history including the radial velocity.
