실난수 발생기는 소프트웨어로 구현된 의사난수 발생기와는 달리 비결정적인 출력열을 제공하고, 알고리즘의 분해나 노출에 따른 위협이 없으며 의사난수발생기의 시드 값 관리가 불필요하다는 장점 등을 가지고 있다. 그러나 전자회고 잡음을 이용하는 경우 실난수 발생기는 온도나 주변 전자회로 기판 잡음 등으로 인해 지속적으로 편이성을 갖지 않는 안정된 출력 난수열을 얻는 것은 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 실난수 발생기에서 추출된 출력 난수열이 지속적으로 안정화된 출력 수열을 얻기 위한 방안을 연구하였다. 제시한 방안은 출력 난수열 "0"나 "1" 비트의 편이성을 가질 경우 FIPS 140-1에서 제시하고 있는 랜덤성의 조건을 만족하도록 출력 난수열의 랜덤성을 개선하였다.

The mapping of the spin-spin relaxation time T2 in pixel-by-pixel was suggested as a quantitative diagnostic tool in medicine. although the CPMG pulse sequence has been known to be the best pulse sequence for T2 measurement in physics NMR, the supplied pulse sequence by the manufacture of MRI system was able to obtain the maximum of 4 CPMG images. Eight or more images with different echo time TEs are required to construct a reliable T2 map, so that two or more acquisitions were required, which easily took more than 10 minutes. 4-echo CPMG imaging pulse sequence was modified to generate the maximum of 8 MR images with evenly spaced echo time TEs. In human MR imaging, since patients tend to move at least several pixels between the different acquisitions, 8-echo CPMG imaging sequence reduces the acquisition time and may remove any mis-regitration of each pixels signal for the fitting of T2. The resultant T2 maps using the theoretically simulated images and using the MR images of the human brain suggested that 8 echo CPMG sequence with short echo spacing such as 17-20 msec can give the reliable T2 map.

In this study, we analyzed and showed the enhanced thermal resolution of a lock-in infrared thermography system by employing a blackbody system and micro-register sample. The noise level or thermal resolution of an infrared camera system is usually expressed by a noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD), which is the mean square of the deviation of the different values measured for one pixel from its mean values obtained in successive measurements. However, for lock-in thermography, a more convenient quantity in the phase-independent temperature modulation amplitude can be acquired. On the basis of results, it was observed that the NETD or thermal resolution of the lock-in thermography system was significantly enhanced, which we consider to have been caused by the averaging and filtering effects of the lock-in technique.

전력선통신에서 발생하는 잡음 중에 가장 중요한 잡음원이 바로 임펄쓰 잡음이다. 일반적으로 임펄스 잡음은 차단기나 모터의 개폐 시 등, 갑자기 발생하는 잡음으로 연집성 오류를 발생시키기도 하며. 오류발생에 대한 예측이 어려워 대처하기가 까다롭다. 본 논문에서 연집성 임펄쓰 잡음을 해결하기 위한 방안으로서 신호 변환 기술인 인터리빙 덴 디인터리빙 기법을 전력선 통신시스템에 적용하고, 모의실험을 통하여 그 신뢰성 및 유용성을 검토하였다.

In this paper, it is about random number generator, which is based on hardware is utilized in medical science and game area. The Intel presents guideline of security level about hardware based true random number generator. At hardware based random number generator, the various test items, that are included in test suits as NIST statistical test, FIPS140-1, is applied. In this paper, it experiments about degree extent of randomness variation from filter scheme effects, which is applied in output stream of hardware noise source.

In this paper, we analyzed the performances of system considering diversity for FH/CPFSK system with limiter-discrimicator detection and integrate-and-dump post-detection filtering. And, we considered thermal noise and partial-band jamming noise, intersymbol interference for all eight of the possible adjacent bit data patterns, FM noise clicks for evaluation systems. In result, the performance of FH/CPFSK system with diversity under the worst-case partial band jamming noise degraded about 5dB rather than that of without diversity when we considered the thermal noise but improved about 16dB rather than of without diversity when we ignored the thermal noise.

When we want to observe and record a patient's EEG in an operating room, the operation of electrosurgical unit(ESU) causes undesirable artifacts with high frequency and high voltage. These artifacts make the amplifiers of the conventional EEG system saturated and prevent the system from measuring the EEG signal. This paper describes a high-performance bipolar EEG amplifier for a CSA (compressed spectral array ) system with reduced ESU artifacts. The designed EEG amplifier uses a balanced filter to reduce the ESU artifacts, and isolates the power supply and the signal source of the preamplifier from the ground to cut off the current from the ESU to the amplifier ground. To cancel the common mode noise in high frequency, a high CMRR(common mode rejection ratio) diffferential amplifier is used. Since the developed bipolar EEG amplifier shows high gain, low noise, high CMRR, high input impedance, and low thermal drift, it is possible to observe and record more clean EEG signals in spite of ESU operation. Therefore the amplifier may be applicable to a high-fidelity CSA system.

The tinnitus retraining therapy(TRT) is an effective method for treating tinnitus patients. This therapy use the white noise to stimulate auditory cells for a wide frequency range. In this paper, the small white noise generator using the thermal noise is proposed. And frequency response controller which can compensate the frequency response changed by the human outer and middle ear system is proposed. We can know that proposed system is more proper type on a purpose of the tinnitus retraining therapy comparing with conventional white noise generator.

In this paper, we introduce a magnetic noise shielding method to reduce the noise effects in permanent magnet based MRI systems. Through FEM electromagnetic analyses, we have shown that the magnetic noise component parallel to the main magnetic field is the major component that makes various artifacts in the images obtained with a permanent magnet based MRI. Based on the FEM analyses, we have developed an active magnetic noise shielding system composed of a magnetic field sensor, compensation coils, and a coil driving system. The shielding system has shown a noise rejection ratio of about 30dB at the frequency below several Hz. We have experimentally verified that the shielding system greatly improves the image quality in a 0.3 Tesla MRI system.

It is difficult to test a detection system in underwater acoustics channel environments. The system can be evaluated by using simulation analysis tool. In this paper, a simulation tool is proposed to analyze the effectiveness of underwater acoustics detection based on database for real environments. First, the underwater environment is built based on HYCOM underwater environment database. Then, a multipath characteristic is considered through calculating underwater acoustics propagation path/pressure based on the ray theory. Also, hydrophone thermal noise and underwater ambient noise are considered to reflect underwater noise characteristics.
