The 25 Watt hybrid MIC SSPA has been developed in the frequency rang from 1.6265 GHz to 1.6465 GHz for uplink of INMARST's earth station. To simplify the fabrication process, the whole system is designed of two parts composed of a friving amplifier and a power amplifier. The Motorolas MRF-6401 is used for driving part, the Motorolas MRF-16006 and MRF-16030 is used the power amplifier. We reduced weight and volume of high power amplifier through arranging the bias circuits in the same housing. The realized SSPA has more than 30 dB for gain within 20 MHz bandwidth, and the voltage standing wave ratios(VSWR) of input and output port are less than 1.7, respectively. The output power of 44 dBm is achieved at the 1 dB gain compression point of 106365 GHz These results reveal a high power amplifier of 25 Watt which is the design target. The Proposed SSPA manufacture techniques in this paper can be applied to the implementation of high power amplifiers for some radars and SCPC.

This paper studies the logic of fiscal constraints and fiscal autonomy in a political agency model with both moral hazard and adverse selection. The electoral process not only disciplines incumbents who may act against the public interest but also opts in politicians who are most likely to act along voters' interests. We characterize perfect Bayesian equilibria under shared tax system and fiscal autonomy with fiscal constraints for local public good provision. It is shown that the local voters' expected welfare under fiscal autonomy is higher than under shared tax system if the same fiscal constraints are applied. In order to examine the effects of party's candidate selection processes on the behavior of local politician and national politician, we extend the model to an environment where local politician can compete for the candidacy of national assembly with incumbent national politician. If local politician wins majority of votes against incumbent national politician, then he can move on to serve as a national politician. Otherwise, his political career will end as a local politician. It is the gist of this primary system portrayed by this setup that local politician and national politician compete to garner more votes. Therefore, primary system as a candidate selection mechanism enhances local residents' welfare compared to top-down candidate selection processes.

세계 경제질서의 급속한 변화에 따라 최근에 많은 선진국들이 경쟁법을 개정하거나 앞으로 개정할 움직임을 활발히 전개하고 있다. 특히 이중에서 글로벌 경제의 급속한 진전에 따라 여기에 대응하기 위한 경쟁법의 개정 움직임도 활발하게 이루어지고 있음을 음미해보아야 할 것이다. 미국은 반트러스트법의 개정을 검토하기 위하여 공청회를 개최하고 ''95년 5월 ''새로운 하이테크 글로벌 시장에서의 경쟁정책''이라는 보고서를 발표하였으며, 이에 따라 합병심사에서 효율성을 앞세워 미국 국내기업의 해외 진출을 지원하고 합병을 용이하게 하도록 ''92년에 제정된 합병 가이드라인을 개정하였다. EU의 구주위원회도 기업결합의 글로벌화가 촉진되도록 ''96년 7월 합병규제규칙을 개정하여 업계가 손쉽게 합병을 할 수 있도록 절차에 있어 일원적 처리의 범위를 확대하였으며, 기업의 규제대상이 되는 연간 매상고기준을 인하하고 합병심사의 대상기업이라도 경쟁상 중대한 문제가 발생하지 않는 것으로 판단되면 공동체 시장에서 적합성을 선언할 수 있도록 하고, 경쟁제한법 협정의 적용제외 규정에서 수직적 제한에 대한 경쟁법 적용여부의 결정은 당사자의 시장점유율을 고려해서 적용여부를 결정하는 등 폭넓은 선택이 가능하도록 개정하였다. 이에 따라 EU국가인 독일, 영국, 프랑스 등의 EU회원국들은 EU합병규제규칙 및 EU경쟁법과의 조화가 이루어지도록 자국의 법체계를 정비하고 있다. 이에 따라 독일은 지난 ''97년 7월 31일에 경쟁제한금지법 제정 이후 40년만에 근본적인 개정의 필요에 따라 EU경쟁법과의 조화, 카르텔에서 적용제외 규정을 글로벌 경제구조에 맞도록 과감히 삭제$\cdot$축소하고, 합병규제대상의 매상고기준을 상향(5억$\right$10억마르크)하고 법체계를 명확하고 알기 쉽게 정리하는 개정(안)을 발표한 바 있다. 그리고 영국 무역산업성 장관은 지난 ''97년 8월 7일 영국의 경쟁법개정(안)을 금년 가을까지 성립을 목표로 발표하였는데, 그 주요 내용은 반경쟁적 협정 및 시장지배력 남용에 대한 강력한 억제력과 중대한 남용행위에 제재금을 부과함으로써 경쟁을 통한 소비자의 이익과 선택을 확보하고 산업계의 불필요한 부담을 경감토록 하여 글로벌시장 경쟁에서 혁신과 투자를 자극하도록 유도하였고, 프랑스는 생산업자와 유통업자에 의한 부당염매금지 제도를 도입하고 경쟁제한행위금지 위반시의 벌칙을 강화했다. 일본은 치열한 국제경쟁에 대응하고 경제구조의 개혁과 사업자활동을 보다 촉진하기 위하여 지난 1997년 6월 11일 일본독점금지법을 개정하여 독점금지법에 위배되지 않는 범위에서 지주회사 설립 금지를 해체하고 대규모회사 주식보유총액제한 규제대상을 완화하는 한편 국제계약신고제도를 폐지하였다. 캐나다는 합병신청서 제출기간을 연장하고 통신판매를 직접규제대상으로 경쟁법 개정을 준비하였고, 호주는 거래관행법을 개정하여 연방정부와 주$\cdot$준주 정부간의 경쟁정책의 법적용을 통일하고 거래관행법 적용을 모든 사업에 확대하며, 재판매가격유지행위의 금지대상에 용역(전기통신서비스)도 포함시키고 시장참입을 촉진하는 제도를 신설하였다. 뉴질랜드는 합병이 국내시장에 영향을 주는 경우에는 외국에서의 합병에도 경쟁법을 확대적용하도록 하였다. 위와 같이 세계의 많은 국가에서 경쟁정책에 대한 새로운 동향과 공정거래법에 대한 개정작업이 활발히 이루어지고 있는데, 본고는 미국, EU, 독일, 영국, 프랑스, 일본, 캐나다 및 호주와 뉴질랜드 등 주요선진국에서의 공정거래법 개정 동향에 대한 주요 내용을 소개한 것이다.

In this paper, we analyze mathematically the performance of the gated service scheduling in the Interleaved Polling with Adaptive Cycle Time(IPACT) was proposed to control upstream traffic for Gigabit Ethernet-PONs. In the analysis, we model EPON MAC protocol as a polling system and use mean value analysis. We divide arrival rate λ into three regions and analyze each region accordingly In the first region in which λ value is very small, there are very few ONUs' data to be transmitted. In the second region in which λ has reasonably large value, ONUs have enough data for continuous transmission. In the third region, ONUs' buffers are always saturated with data since λ value is very large. We obtain average packet delay, average Queue size, average cycle time of the gated service. We compare analysis results with simulation to verify the accuracy of the mathematical analysis. Simulation requires much time and effort to evaluate the performance of EPONs. On the other hand, mathematical analysis can be widely used in the design of EPON systems because system designers can obtain various performance results rapidly. We can design appropriate EPON systems for varioustraffic property by adjusting control parameters.

The Upper Devonian Grosmont Formation in northern Alberta, Canada, underlies the erosion unconformity that formed between the Cretaceous and Upper Devonian. The formation is divided into four units on the basis of intercalated shales and showing a typical shelf environment of shallowing-upward. It was possible to separate four units(LG~UG3), considering the seismic interpretation attributes of polarity, continuity, frequency/spacing and amplitude and showing the reflection characteristics of the medium-high amplitude, medium-low frequency, good continuity, and subparallel reflection events. The formation can be interpreted as shelf or platform, based on in-situ core data. However, it is difficult, only with reflection attributes and features, to recognize the boundaries and sedimentary environment of parasequence. Therefore, we try to interprete by parasequence set in this study. The parasequence set was formed by erosion unconformity with systems tracts. The erosion unconformity can be recognized by facies data and karst, erosional surface. Grosmont carbonate deposits ranging from platform and shelf to shelf slope are; by wedge-shaped strata of characterized by complex sigmoid-oblique progradational configurations, reflecting a depositional history of upbuilding and outbuilding in response to sea-level changes. Most of the sedimentary units is interpreted as platforms under regression and lowstand environments that support is evidences. In particular, shale layer at the basal part of the highstand systems tracts represents the regressive to lowstand of sea level.

Column tests of a sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) bioreactor were conducted to determine the design factors for sulfate-rich mine drainage. Various substrates were applied to the bioreactor, including cow manure and its mixture with a mushroom compost, with rice straw and limestone as subsidiary materials. This procedure provided a removal efficiency of up to 82% of the total sulfur with the mixture of cow manure (70%), mushroom compost (10%) and rice straw (20%), and higher efficiencies were observed after 2 days of retention time. In the downflow condition of the flow direction, oxygen supply and re-oxidation of the sulfates occurred, causing a decrease in sulfate removal efficiency. The addition of an inorganic sludge containing heavy metals, which was intended for production of metal-sulfides in the bioreactor, had a negative effect on the long-term operation owing to arsenic release and toxicity to the SRB. The results thus show that a bioreactor using a mixed substrate with cow manure and operating in the downflow direction could reduce sulfates and total dissolved sulfur content; this process confirms the applicability of the SRB bioreactor to sulfate-rich saline drainage.

This study was carried out at a local limestone mine to analyze the ventilation efficiency of the shaft equipped with a main fan. The results show that its ventilation efficiency is clearly verified for the natural as well as the mechanical ventilation. The airflow rate of $11.7m^3/s$ was induced by the natural ventilation force and the maximum quantity is almost same as the airflow rate estimated by monitoring the average temperatures in the upcast and downcast air columns. Meanwhile, the airflow rate exhausted by the main fan through the shaft was $20.3{\sim}24.8m^3/s$; variation of the quantity was caused by the upward shift of the mine ventilation characteristic curve due to the frequent movement of the equipment. This indicates efforts are required to reduce the ventilation resistance and raise the quantity supplied by the main fan. The turbulent diffusion coefficients along the 1912 m long airway from the portal to the shaft bottom was estimated to be $15m^2/s$ and $18m^2/s$. Since these higher coefficients imply that contaminants will be dispersed at a faster velocity than the airflow, prompt exhaust method should be planned for the effective air quality control. The ventilation shaft and main fan are definitely what local limestone mines inevitably need for better working environment and sustainable development.

The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MRPA) have become a serious problem worldwide. The involvement of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) in inducing carbapenem resistance is particularly acute. However, unlike other members of the Enterobacteriaceae genus, new clones of P. aeruginosa are constantly emerging and rapidly replacing previously prevalent dominant clones. Therefore, this study aimed to perform antimicrobial resistance gene analysis, integron gene cassette analysis using DNA sequencing, and plasmid transfer analysis by conjugation to investigate the antimicrobial resistance dynamics of 18 P. aeruginosa strains isolated from various medical samples at a general hospital in Busan from September 2017 to September 2019. All 18 strains showed extensively drug-resistant (XDR) phenotype and were resistant to most antibiotics, except colistin (100%) but were susceptible to aztreonam (22.2%) and ceftazidime (16.6%). Approximately 66.7% of the strains had Class 1 integrons showing various antimicrobial resistances. Notably, IMP-6 ST235 (66.7%), VIM-2 ST357 (16.7%), and IMP-1 ST446(16.7%) were identified. The identification of IMP-1-producing ST446, previously unreported in Korea, is noteworthy considering the emergence and prevalence of another MRPA high-risk clone.

Demand for examinations using transvaginal transducer with high frequencies is increasing to observe pelvic organs in gynecological ultrasound tests. However, the quality control of the replacement probe in clinical trials is not properly implemented and the evaluation criteria have not been established. Therefore, 58 transvaginal transducers and 20 convex transducers were applied to the ATS-539 ultrasound phantom for 20 ultrasound devices currently in clinical use to obtain their respective images and measure them quantitatively and qualitatively. For quantitative measurements, vertical measurement, horizontal measurement, and focal zone and qualitative measurements, dead zone, axial·lateral resolution, sensitivity, functional resolution, gray scale·dynamic range were performed. Quantitative statistical analysis showed significant differences between the two transducers in the lateral measurement and local area (p<0.05). qualitative comparative analysis showed differences in sensitivity and functional resolution. This occurs due to the difference in frequency between transducers and the transducer's injection geometry. Based on the above experiments, the tolerance for horizontal measurement is raised to 10% (±8 mm), the tolerance for sensitivity is observed up to 6 cm deep, which is 12 cm deep,which is the level of the third quartile (75%). The permissible range of functional resolution is up to 6 (12 cm), 6 (12 cm), 11 (11 cm), 9 (9 cm), 6 (6 cm) target, which is the level of the third quartile (75%). It is considered reasonable to adjust the depth of targets in gray scale·dynamic range to measure at a depth of 2 cm, which is 50% of the depth of 4 cm. As above, the criteria for evaluating the quality of transvaginal transducer for use in the past have been proposed and it is expected that this study will be used as a basic data for the production of phantom exclusively for transvaginal transducer in the future.
