This paper describes fiber-optic current sensor using SF-4 flint glass for the first time, ails the flint glass has been theoretically analyzed by jones matrix and experimentally verified. Verdet constant of SF-4 flint glass, which determines the sensitivity of current sensor, has been experimentally found as 0.0606(min/g.cm). It is relatively lower value than currently used faraday rotators such as FR-5, SF-6 flint glasses and YIG. The fiber.optic current sensor system was established and the current measurement was performed in the range of 100-600 (A) and 100- 500 (G). It has beenfhown by the experi-mental results that the detector output linearly increased in proportion to the current. Since these experimental results were in good agreement with theoretical results, it has been shown that SF-4 flint glass can be used for the magnetooptic current sensor.

In development of network-enabled consumer electronics, much of the time and effort is spent analyzing and solving network performance problems. In this paper, we define an instance of such problems discovered while developing a commercial home network gateway. We then analyze its cause and propose a solution mechanism. Our home network gateway uses art asymmetric link (ADSL) and suffers from an undesirable phenomenon where downlink traffic interferes with upload speed. We call this phenomenon the network performance interference problem. While this problem can easily be confused with receive livelock caused by packet contention at the input queue, we and that this is not the case. By performing extensive experiments and analysis, we reveal that our problem is caused by packet contention at the output queue and certain intrinsic characteristics of TCP. We devise an ACK-separation queuing mechanism for this problem and implement it in the home network gateway Our experiments show that it effectively solves the problem.

In this paper, a design and fabrication of 4 W power amplifier for the WiMAX frequency band(2.3~2.7 GHz) are presented. The adopted active device is a commercially available GaN HEMT chip of Triquint Company, which is recently released. The optimum input and output impedances are extracted for power amplifier design using a specially self-designed tuning jig. Using the adopted impedances value, class-F power amplifier was designed based on EM simulation. For integration and matching in the small package module, spiral inductors and interdigital capacitors are used. The fabricated power amplifier with $4.4{\times}4.4\;mm^2$ shows the efficiency above 50 % and harmonic suppression above 40 dBc for second(2nd) and third(3rd) harmonic at the output power of 36 dBm.

In this study, a method for optimal design of impeller and diffuser blades in the centrifugal compressor using response surface method (RSM) and multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) was evaluated. A numerical simulation was conducted using ANSYS CFX with various values of impeller and diffuser parameters, which consist of leading edge (LE) angle, trailing edge (TE) angle, and blade thickness. Each of the parameters was divided into three levels. A total of 45 design points were planned using central composite design (CCD), which is one of the design of experiment (DOE) techniques. Response surfaces that were generated on the basis of the results of DOE were used to determine the optimal shape of impeller and diffuser blade. The entire process of optimization was conducted using ANSYS Design Xplorer (DX). Through the optimization, isentropic efficiency and pressure recovery coefficient, which are the main performance parameters of the centrifugal compressor, were increased by 0.3 and 5, respectively.

최근 하천의 자연성 및 생태기능의 향상을 위해 매트류 호안공법의 적용이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 공법이 적용된 호안은 강수 및 하천수의 지속적인 유입으로 인해 앵커핀과 비탈면 간의 마찰력을 저하시킬 수 있다. 마찰력의 저하는 앵커핀의 고정능력을 저하시켜 매트가 들뜨는 현상을 발생시키고, 이로 말미암아 비탈면에 식재된 식생의 고사는 물론 비탈면의 슬라이딩 현상의 발생에 의해 비탈면 붕괴에 까지 이르게 하고 있다. 그러나 현재 호안매트와 함게 시공하는 앵커핀의 적용에 대한 구체적인 기준과 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 매트류 호안제품을 비탈면에 고정시키는 목적으로 사용하고 있는 앵커핀에 대한 인발특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 인발실험에 사용된 앵커핀은 실제 하천호안에 적용되고 있는 상용제품으로 형태가 다른 4가지 type을 실험에 사용하였으며, 앵커핀의 관입깊이(170mm, 250mm) 별로 인발실험을 실시하였다. 실험에 사용된 인발장치는 인발부에 로드셀을 장착하여 앵커핀과 결합이 가능하도록 하였으며, 인발시 발생하는 계측 값을 컴퓨터를 통해 출력이 가능하도록 제작하였다. 실험결과 4가지 형태의 앵커핀에 대한 관입깊이별 형태별 인발특성을 파악할 수 있었으며, 비탈면 및 매트의 고정효과가 우수한 앵커핀의 형태에 대해서도 파악할 수 있었다. 관입깊이별 최대 인발력은 두 변위(170mm, 250mm) 모두 Type 4가 337N, 594N 으로 가장 큰 인발력을 가지는 것으로 측정되었으며, 변위에 의한 인발력의 증가는 Type 2가 138%로 가장 큰 폭의 증가 값을 보였다. 또한 토양과 앵커핀의 마찰력 향상을 위해 하부가 돌출된 형태로 제작된 Type 2와 Type 4가 상대적으로 실험 후반부에서 최대 인발력이 발생하고 인발지속시간이 길게 나타나는 것으로 볼 때, 인발저항은 앵커핀 하부의 돌출면적에 영향을 받는 것으로 판단된다.

The conventional neon transformer systems are very bulky and heavy because it consist of leakage type transformers made of silicon steel plates. In addition, it has problems in noise by a neon transformer and in possibilities of fire and electrical shock when neon tubes are destroyed. A protection circuit is designed for all types of neon transformer loaded with one or more neon tubes. Whenever the neon tube fails to be started up, comes to the life end, encounters faults with open-circuits at the output terminals of the neon transformer, the protection circuit will be initiated to avoid more critical hazards. The input of the transformer is automatically cut off when the abnormal condition occurs, preventing waste of no-load power. To improve such problems, in this paper, a new type of neon power supply systems for neon tube is designed and implemented using inverter type circuits and a newly designed lightweight transformer. In the developed neon transformer system, a 60［Hz］power input is converted to 20［KHz］high frequency using half-wave inverters, thereby the transformer reduces its size by 1/5 in volume and 1/10 in weight.

In this paper, an efficient prediction accuracy enhancement strategy is proposed for improving the performance of the prediction-based parallel event-driven gate-level timing simulation. The proposed new strategy adopts the static double prediction and the dynamic prediction for input and output values of local simulations. The double prediction utilizes another static prediction data for the secondary prediction once the first prediction fails, and the dynamic prediction tries to use the on-going simulation result accumulated dynamically during the actual parallel simulation execution as prediction data. Therefore, the communication overhead and synchronization overhead, which are the main bottleneck of parallel simulation, are maximally reduced. Throughout the proposed two prediction enhancement techniques, we have observed about 5x simulation performance improvement over the commercial parallel multi-core simulation for six test designs.

In order to reduce the fossil fuels consumed in conventional commercial independent diesel generators in the same environment as the island area, it is necessary to develop a photovoltaic system that will bear more than 40% of the independent system capacity. For this development, it is necessary to develop a high-capacity inverter that can improve the stability of the independent system installed in the island area and supply high-quality power to the load. In addition, the EMS power generation control system for the independent grid photovoltaic power generation system is a parallel operation power control system of the diesel generator connected with the solar power generation system. It controls the output of the diesel generator according to the load ratio and the solar power generation, A stable supply system is needed. This independent grid photovoltaic generation system can increase the solar power supply to the independent system area and increase the power stability of the independent system and further reduce the use of fossil fuel due to the ineffective power control of the independent system. It is expected that the economy will be secured early.
