This paper proposes a new recognition time reduction algorithm Score-Cache technique, which is applicable to the HMM-base speech recognition system. Score-Cache is a very unique technique that has no other performance degradation and still reduces a lot of search time. Other search reduction techniques have trade-offs with the recognition rate. This technique can be applied to the continuous speech recognition system as well as the isolated word speech recognition system. W9 can get high degree of recognition time reduction by only replacing the score calculating function, not changing my architecture of the system. This technique also can be used with other recognition time reduction algorithms which give more time reduction. We could get 54% of time reduction at best.

In this paper, a tiled display system is developed to get a high-resolution image in visualization of large-scale structural analysis data with low-resolution display devices and low-cost cluster computer system. Concerning the hardware system, some of the crucial points are investigated, and a new beam-projector positioner is designed and manufactured to resolve the keystone phenomena which result in distorted image. In the development of tiled display software, Qt and OpenGL are utilized for GUI and rendering, respectively. To obtain the entire tiled image, LAM-MPI is utilized to synchronize the several sub-images produced from each cluster computer node.

A simplified view of array design and application process was introduced. Array design is critical to achieve a successful phased array measurements. A planar microphone array is designed to produce optimum performance and also to fit economic requirement in integrating data acquisition system. Certain performance characteristics are of primary concern when designing arrays. These characteristics include array resolution, spatial aliasing and array sidelobe suppression. Every array has its directional pattern that shows such characteristics. Assuming that a monopole source is located in center, beam-patterns have been simulated varying measurement conditions such as number of sensors. array aperture size, distance between array and source, frequency of interest and so on. Sensor correction was conducted on very channel using magnitudes and phased of FRF with respect to a reference microphone channel. Then with a spiral type array, measurements have been made with two point sources of same frequency in order to investigate array resolving abilities. It is observed that higher frequency source achieves better resolution than lower one does.

In this paper, we studied on the optimization of the output power of Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) base station considering the technical condition of base station and wireless channel condition. The optimum power of base station can be estimated based on the link budget calculation of downlink and uplink in the Mobile WiMAX communication system. We investigated the optimum output power of base station in the case of 2Tx-2Rx base station with $2{\times}2$ MIMO(multiple input multiple output) technology, 2Tx-4Rx base station with improved receiver sensitivity, and 4Tx-4Rx base station with beamforming technology.

Microstrip $8{ imes}2$ sub-array antennas for a extension to active phased array antennas are designed, fabricated and measured for TX/RX dual operation in satellite communication and a reception of satellite broadcasting. For the frequency range from 11.7 to 12.75 GHz for RX and from 14 to 14.5 GHz for TX, two orthogonal linear polarizations of ${pm}45^{\circ}$ are used to transmit and receive simultaneously with one radiator. They adopt dual resonance between two patches for wideband characteristics in RX band and show isolation characteristics over 20 dB. An electrical beam tilt of $30^{\circ}$ is achieved and a tapered power distribution, narrow element spacing are used for the purpose of low side-lobe characteristics.

In this paper, we propose a controller for a ball and beam system which reduces the measurement error effect under AC and DC noise. The ball and beam system measures data through a sensor. If sensor noise is included in a controller via the feedback channel, the signal is distorted and the entire system cannot work normally. Therefore, some appropriate action for the measurement error effect is essential in the controller design. Our controller is equipped with a gain-scaling factor and a compensator to reduce the effect of measurement error in the feedback signal. Effectively, our proposed controller can reduce the AC and DC noise of a feedback sensor. We analyze the proposed controller by Laplace transform technique and illustrate the improved control performance via an experiment for a ball and beam system.

A method of miniaturizing branch line coupler with connected coupled lines is presented. The quarter-wavelength transmission lines in the typical microstrip branch line coupler are replaced with the connected coupled lines with same characteristics of ones for compact size. The connected coupled line is analyzed by T-equivalent circuit and Z parameters based on the even-odd mode analysis. The proposed branch line couplers with connected coupled line are designed and fabricated on FR4 substrate at 2.4 GHz. The measured results show good agreement with theoretical prediction. And the experimental results show that the size of coupler is 37 precent smaller than conventional coupler. This minimized coupler is suitable for Butler Matrix as feeder for mobile communication beam forming antenna.

To predict propagation environments of antenna radiation pattern, it is very important for deceision of service area, selection of the best station location and design of cell etc. By analyzing the propagation prediction model that is varied acceding to the kind of antenna, beam angle, terrain and obstacles, we expect that the economic operating of communication networks, calling quality and service of subscriber will be enhanced. It was measured the fields strength to propose the optimal propargation predicted model of the zone of Seji base station in Naju-city. The simulations of field test are 4 types Hata model, the Egri model, the Carey model and the proposed model. Finally the proposed model are more close agreement with experimental test than other models.

Fabry-Perot cavity(FPC) antennas with artificial magnetic conductor(AMC) surface are designed in order to provide scan capability by $4{\times}1$ array feed inside the cavity. The proposed antenna, excited by $4{\times}1$ thinned array, not only achieve higher directivities but also improve suppression of sidelobe level(SLL) relative to that of the thin array alone. The FPC antenna with the height of a quarter wavelength generate maximum gain of 19 dB, SLL suppression of 14 dB and maximum scan angle of $8^{\circ}$ under the feed phase difference of $90^{\circ}$ at the design frequency of 12 GHz.

When an integrated circuit device is burned out under high-intense radiation and device-level simulation that usually requires manufacturer's proprietary information is not available, experimental conformation of a failure mechanism is often the only choice. To distinguish Latchup from other causes experimentally, a new combination of multiple techniques have been developed and demonstrated. Power supply circumvention, hot-spot monitoring using an infrared camera, and supply current monitoring techniques were implemented for the conformation of the Latchup.
