현재 전 세계는 앞으로 사용 될 대체 에너지에 많은 관심 가지고 있다. 지금 사용하고 있는 에너지 연료는 한정되어 있기 때문에 대체에너지에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 되고 있다. 그 중 압전체를 이용한 에너지 하베스팅은 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 주변 환경에서 필요한 에너지를 끌어 쓸 수 있는 대표적인 청정에너지 시스템 중 하나이기 때문이다. 최근 전원 공급원으로써 에너지 수확 시스템은 현 사회에 사용되고 있는 배터리로 전원을 사용하는 제품들을 소용량과 저전압 분야에서의 에너지 수확의 원리를 이용하여 전기전자제품의 사용시간 연장 및 응용분야 확대를 시도하는 연구가 활발히 수행되고 있다. 압전세라믹스를 이용한 에너지 하베스팅은 진동에너지를 전기에너지로 변환하는 것으로서 압전 특성이 높아야 한다. 일반적으로 압전 세라믹스는 PbO 성분이 들어가므로 환경적 오염 뿐만 아니라 인체에도 영향이 좋지 않으므로 많은 나라에서 이러한 성분을 제한하고 점차적으로 줄어들고 있는 시점에서 PbO를 사용하지 않고 Lead-Free 세라믹를 사용한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 일반적인 소결 방법을 이용하여 (Na,K)NbO3 세라믹에 CeO2를 첨가한 압전 세라믹을 제작하였다. 제작된 압전 세라믹스로 에너지 하베스팅 소자를 제작하고, 이 소자로 수확된 에너지로 DC-DC Converter 응용 특성에 대하서 연구하였다. 압전 세라믹스의 좋은 압전 특성을 출력하기 위하여 캔틸레버의 고유 진동수가 진동원의 주파수와 일치하는 공진을 일으켜야 한다. 따라서 구동회로는 주파수원을 찾아 설계하였고, 압전 세라믹스의 진동은 가진기를 이용하여 구동실험을 하였다. 지금까지 나와있던 에너지 하베스팅 회로와 비교하여 그 특성을 분석하고, 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

The frequency dependency of the Rayleigh surface wave was investigated indirectly by measuring the angular dependency of the backward radiation of the incident ultrasonic wave in the abrasion specimens, which was explained in view of the residual stress distribution. The peak intensity of the backward radiation profile decreased and the right half width of the profile increased with an increase of the variational rate of residual stress for the scuffing specimen. The peak intensity was also affected by the surface wave scattering during the propagation around the micro-damages. The peak angle might depend on not only the amount of residual stress but also the micro-structure. The result observed in this study demonstrates the high potential of the backward radiated ultrasound as a tool for the nondestructive evaluation of the subsurface gradients of materials.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that used a direct method to set an initial value of Broydon-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno(BFGS) method and, accordingly, conducted an experiment in optimal directivity synthesis of adaptive ultrasonic transducer by point source array. To certify the efficiency of this method, quasi-ideal beam with arbitrary beam width, rotating beam, and multi beam, all with the limited side lobe level -30dB, were chosen to check the problem of directivity synthesis that was formed by point source array in the second dimensional sound field. The numerical calculation results showed that the proposed method performed the directivity synthesis faster than the BFGS method did. In addition, the proposed method showed a good error correction for directivity synthesis, and did not demand the choice of initial value. Finally, it is also shown that the proposed method can be used for the adaptive control that was not possible with the direct method alone.

In the world each bureau tries an introduction of Mobile WiMAX frequency in the various band. Particularly, 2.5 GHz band is likely to be used as the future mobile telecommunication using as the IMT-2000 additional band which determined in WRC, and it comes into the spotlight as the band of the global radio broadband service including the Mobile WiMAX. Thus, the activity for including the Mobile WiMAX to the IMT-2000 technical standard is unfolded for the WiBro market development in the ITU-R WP8F conference, and the adoption or rejection will be finally determined in the ITU-R RA-07. Therefore, this paper tried to look for the plan for reaction according to the IMT-2000 standard acceptance of WiBro technology and the foreign usage plan of 2.5 GHZ band.

This paper presents the assessment of 7-wire strand monitoring using acoustic emission technique for bridges. 7-wire strand is widely used construction materials to provide additional tensile force to bridges. PSC (PreStressed Concrete) bridge and cable-stayed bridge are representatives for such cases. However, as the bridge aging progresses recently, corrosion problems of strand are emerging. For this reason, various NDT (Non-Destructive Test) methods for cable inspection are being studied and applied to the field. One of the NDT methods, acoustic emission technique, is known as an effective technique to detect cable damage and breakage. In this study, to evaluate the applicability of acoustic emission technique to bridges, acoustic emission signals according to damage of the strand were acquired and analyzed by tensile test. Moreover, The optimal AE sensor type was selected for field application. As a result, it is considered that the acoustic emission technique will be able to detect corrosion breakage and signs of rupture.

This paper presents 12.2 GHz ~ 12.7 GHz frequency band reflection type 5-bit digital phase shifter with constant insertion loss property that was fabricated with relatively low cost's InGaAs HEMT for amplifier. The unavoidable large insertion loss difference between on and off states of HEMT, when it is designed by conventional design theory based on ideal switching device, is removed by transforming the HEMT impedances at on and off states to other proper values connecting a certain length transmission line to HEMT and then applying the conventional design theory. The fabricated 5-bit digital phase shifter shows very good insertion loss properties of less than 1.5 dB insertion loss difference and -4.5 dB ~ -6 dB insertion loss in 35 phase steps at 12.2 GHz ~ 12.7 GHz. These results verify the design method presented in this paper, which is useful to design phase shifter of constant insertion loss with non-ideal switching device.

Compressive sensing has proved that a signal can be restored from less samples than the Nyquist rate. Reducing the required data rate is essential for a variety of fields including compression, transmission, and storage. It has been made lots of attempt to apply the compressive sensing theory into data intensive fields, such as image processing which needs to cover 4K and 8K pictures. In this paper, an image acquisition algorithm based on compressive sensing is proposed. It combines DCT, which can compact the energy of a image into a few coefficients, and the Noiselet transform, which is incoherent with DCT. The DCT coefficients represent the coarse structure of the images while the Noiselet information holds the fine details. Performance experiments with several images show that the proposed image acquisition algorithm not only outperforms the previous results, but also improves the reconstruction quality faster as the number of measurements increases.

In this study, in using a piezoelectric material of $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ (PMN-PT), which has a high electromechanical coupling coefficient, we have tried to study about this material can be practically available as a new biosensor to detect protein by using surface acoustic wave (SAW). As the results, the filtering of the center frequency of the PMN-PT substrate is a superior result to that of the $LiTaO_3$ (LT) substrate, but the result was not completely satisfactory. Also this study attempts to develop a sensing method to detect mismatched DNA in order to diagnose cancer. We could directly immobilize the MutS to the NTA using the EDC solution. But, we immobilized MutS using nickel and it is judged that is more effective method to detect mismatched DNA.

ZnO thin films were deposited on Corning 7059 glass substrates to study fundamental properties of films. According to the experimental results, (002) preferred ZnO thin films were grown by purging Ar/O2 mixed gas, but not without oxygen gas. The structure and the orientation of ZnO thin films were much affected by the substrate temperature and rf power. High quality ZnO films were obtained by increasing their values. Optimum deposition parameters were : 300W rf power, 300℃ substrate temperature, Ar/O2=70/30. To characterize SAW propagation properties, IDT was fabricated by etching Al films deposited on diamond/Si wafer with RIE. Measured λ(wavelength) was 24μm and experimental results were well matched with simulation. Center frequency was 250MHz, and the calculated phase velocity of ZnO/ diamond structure was about 6000m/s.

The effect of the reflector type for the SAW filter on the characteristics of the slanted finger IDT filter have been studied by computer simulation. The IDT was evaporated by Aluminum-Copper alloy. The design condition was optimized by the phase shift of the SAWfilter for WCDMA. We have employed that the number of pairs of the input and output IDT are 50 pairs and the thickness are $5,000{\AA}$, and the width and the space of reflector are $3.6{\mu}m$ and $2.0{\mu}m$, respectively. Frequency response of the fabricated SFIT filter has the property that the center frequency is about 190MHz and bandwidth at the 3dB is probably 8.2MHz. And we could obtain that the return loss is less then 16dB, the ripple characteristics is probably 4dB and the triple transit echo is less then 18dB after when we have matched impedance.
