In this paper, we present a small size and multiband directional dipole antenna for mobile communication repeaters. In the omni-directional dipole antenna, a planar reflector under the dipole provides improved directivity in front-direction with wide beamwidth. In order to miniaturize the directive dipole, the size of the reflector is reduced. A vertical stub on the reflector is proposed to enhance the front-directivity of the radiation pattern and mitigate the backward radiation due to the reduced reflector. Furthermore, we use horizontal stubs on edge of vertical stub to obtain additional reduction of the antenna size. To meet the current demand of wireless communication service, the designed antenna shows wideband characteristic by employing electromagnetic coupled two-dipoles with dual-resonance frequencies.

In this paper, a miniaturized frequency selective surface(FSS) for bandstop operation that provides stability for an angle of incidence and polarization is presented. The proposed miniaturized FSS has the unit cell of hexagonal structure with triangular loops and size of the unit cell is $0.081{\lambda}{\times}0.081{\lambda}$ at 2.5 GHz operating frequency, which is very small compared to operating wavelength. In addition, unlike the conventional design, which requires complicated design parameters, the proposed FSS is easily expanded to the desired operating frequency for 2~8 GHz, by controlling the specific design parameters. To validate the simulation results, the FSS structures having different operating frequencies, 2.5 GHz, 5 GHz and 8.2 GHz were designed, fabricated and measured. The comparisons between the simulation and the measured results show good agreement. The proposed miniaturized FSS can provide better frequency stability for different incidence angles and polarizations.

P wave traveltime delays has been measured and a preliminary tomouaphic inversion has been performed using the data collected from the network deployed by Korea National University of Education in the southcentral part Korea. The maximum variation in relative traveltime residuals is almost 0.7 seconds. A large azimuthal variation in traveltime residuals is observed at the stations in the northwestern part of the study area. This might indicate the existence of lateral velocity heterogeneity beneath the study area. Although, the inverted tomographic image seems to be correlated with the tectonic boundary between Kyunggi Massif and Okcheon Belt, the confidence level is presently low. We should place on the importance of this study for finding preferable inversion parameters and predicting probable result. Better tomographic image of the study area can be obtained in the near future when the data are accumulated.

The first order wave equation over a double shelf has wind stresses on both coastal boundaries and wind stress curl forcing across the shelf. In the Yellow Sea, the effect of wind stress curl can be neglected as a forcing of shelf waves. The decay distance of Kelvin waves is much greater than that of continental shelf waves so that Kelvin waves are transmitted nearly intact through the northern embayment. The numerical method of characteristics has been modified to accomodate wave propagation of opposite directions. Using a little more realistic coastline, the wave model hindcast has been improved for current velocity, but hardly for sea level. It means that Kelvin waves, which mainly determine sea levels, are affected little by the change of bottom slope. For a better hindcast of sea level, input energy of Kelvin waves transmitted from the East China Sea is needed. The basic structure of downwind flows along the coasts and upwind flows along the trough supports the seasonal circulations driven by monsoon winds in the Yellow Sea.

In this paper, we propose a mobile watermarking based on the distortion analysis of display-capture image in a smart phone. We compose a random sequence by utilizing the property of frequency band in the wavelet domain. Then we calculate the CCS (Coefficients Comparative Sum) using the block wavelet coefficients of selected subbands after the wavelet transformation and the random sequence and repeatedly embed a watermark using an insertion threshold for the watermark robustness. For correcting a distortion caused by the display-capture process, we adopt a frame at the outside of watermarked image, then we can equate a watermark synchronization by detecting the frame. And we can improve frame detection ratio by using an iteratively adaptive threshold. A proposed scheme embedded information of 206 bits into standard digital images and it shows an average about 41.42 dB in PSNR. In watermark extract experiments, a proposed scheme accurately recognizes the frame more than 97% in total captured images. Also in BER (Bit Error Ratio) of captured images, it shows about 3.73%, then it was improved more than 70%, compared with the Pramila's method.

In this paper, we propose a 4kbps speech coder that combines the harmonic vector excitation coding with time-separated transition coding. The harmonic vector excitation coding uses the harmonic excitation coding in the voiced frame and uses the vector excitation coding with the structure of analysis-by-synthesis in the unvoiced frame, respectively. But two mode coding method is not effective for transition frame mixed in voiced and unvoiced signal and a new method beyond using unvoiced/voiced mode coding is needed. Thus, we designed a time-separated transition coding method for transition frame in which a voiced/unvoiced decision algorithm separates unvoiced and voiced duration in a frame, and harmonic-harmonic excitation coding and vector-harmonic excitation coding method is selectively used depending on the previous frame U/V decision. In the decoder, the voiced excitation signals are generated efficiently through the inverse FFT of harmonic magnitudes and the unvoiced excitation signals are made by the inverse vector quantization. The reconstructed speech signal are synthesized by the Overlap/Add method.

Nowadays, in many fields of medical treatment, we can make an observation and a diagnosis of inward disease without using a surgical operation. As one of them, ultra-sound diagnosis system can be available widely in its cost and size compared with other medical instruments. This system also make it possible for us to see the inner parts of the body in real time harmlessly for a long time. So it can be utilized to inspect the movement of heart or fetus and to diagnose an internal disease of the soft tissues. Ultra-sound images can be generated by the reflexive and scattered wave through the pulse generator and so in ultrasound images there exist inherently many affective noised signals. In this paper, we are to take an noise-restrained image and to extract a more affective regions of the images.

자연하천의 유량값은 일반적으로 횡단면의 면적과 이를 통과하는 유속의 곱으로 산정된다. 유량측정 방법은 하천의 형태와 저 평수기 및 홍수기의 수위에 따라 도섭법, 교량법, 부자법 및 보트를 이용한 ADVM 측정법 등 다양한 방법으로 실시된다. 그러나 현장 여건에 따라 흐름에 직각이 아닌 사교에서 측정이 이루어지는 경우에는 단면적의 오차를 포함할 가능성이 크기 때문에 횡단면의 측선 각도에 따라 각보정을 실시해야 한다. 현재 사교에서 유량 측정을 실시하는 경우, 흐름의 직각을 기준으로 처짐각을 측량하여 각 측선에 $cos{\theta}$를 적용하여 단면적을 보정하고 있는데, 이 처짐의 정도가 유량의 참값에서 어느 정도의 영향을 미치는지에 대한 검토가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 한강수계 왕숙천에 위치한 퇴계원 지점에서 실시간 수위에 따른 유속을 측정하였으며, 횡단면에 직각인 측선을 기준값으로 제시하고, 처짐각의 정도를 $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $40^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$까지 늘려 산정된 유량값을 기준값과 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구에 쓰인 측정기기는 Price AA 유속계이고, 측정방법으로는 유량의 흐름 방향을 기준하여 직각으로 수면에서 0.6d 지점의 유량측정방법(1점법)을 적용하였다. 그 결과 유량의 흐름 방향을 기준하여 직각인 경우 $1.39m^3/s$의 유량에서 보정 전 각 $10^{\circ}$의 유량 $1.36m^3/s$, $30^{\circ}$의 유량 $1.49m^3/s$, $50^{\circ}$의 유량 $2.25m^3/s$로 각이 클수록 단면적이 크게 나타나며 유량 역시도 과대 산정됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 도섭법을 이용한 유량측정이나 사교에서의 교량법 등을 적용하여 유량측정을 실시할 경우 유량의 흐름방향을 기준으로 직각으로 유량측정을 실시하여 유량을 산정하되 부득이한 경우로 사교에서의 측정이 이루어 졌을 시 흐름 방향을 기준으로 각도를 측정하여 크게 나타나는 단면적에 처짐각을 보정하여 유량을 산정함이 오차를 줄일 수 있으며, 신뢰성 있는 유량자료 생산의 방법이 라 할 수 있겠다.
