An optical current sensor device that measures electric current by the principle of the Faraday effect was designed and fabricated. The polarization-rotated reflection interferometer and the quadrature phase interferometer were introduced so as to improve the operational stability. Complex structures containing diverse optical components were integrated in a polymeric optical integrated circuit and manufactured in a small size. This structure allows sensing operation without extra bias feedback control, and reduces the phase change due to environmental temperature changes and vibration. However, the Verdet constant, which determines the Faraday effect, still exhibits an inherent temperature dependence. In this work, we tried to eliminate the residual temperature dependence of the optical current sensor based on polarization-rotated reflection interferometry. By varying the length of the fiber-optic wave plate, which is one of the optical components of the interferometer, we could compensate for the temperature dependence of the Verdet constant. The proposed optical current sensor exhibited measurement errors maintained within 0.2% over a temperature range, from 25℃ to 85℃.

This study shows an attempt to generate an assembly sequence and its model for a ship block assembly using the graph theory and graph algorithms. To generate the ship block assembly, we propose four levels of the ship block assembly model such as "geometry mode1", "relational model", "sequential mode1", and "hierarchical model". To obtain the relational model, we used surface and surface intersection algorithm. The sequential model that represents a possible assembly sequence is made by using several graph algorithms from the relational model. The hierarchical model will be constructed from the sequential model in order to represent the block assembly tree and so forth. The purpose of the hierarchical model is to define an assembly tree and to generate the Bill Of Material(BOM). Lastly, the validity of the method proposed in this study is examined with application to ship block assembly models of a single type and double type according to four models mentioned above.

In this paper, the gain of the square hem antenna is enhanced with $3{\times}3$ latticed aperture. In order to get the uniform field distribution on the aperture, the different thicknesses of dielectric plates for the phase compensation are inserted into the center and the edge of the aperture respectively. The proposed horn antenna is designed at 12.5 GHz band, and then the analysis of the field distribution on the aperture is performed by using FDTD method. The radiation pattern is also calculated from the analysis. Based on the measured data, it is verified that the gain of a horn antenna with latticed aperture is 18 dBi and this is 2 dB gain enhancement compare with a normal horn antenna without latticed aperture.

Power Quality Compensator(PQC) has been installed to protect the sensitive loads against the voltage disturbances, such as voltage sag and interruption. In general, static switch is used for the purpose of link between utility and PQC. So transfer operation of the static switch play a important part in the PQC. Many studies on the structure and control of PQC have been progressed in active, but these researches have been rarely mentioned about any voltage-disturbances-detection method to start the PQC operation. In this paper, a new voltage-disturbances-detection algorithm for computer application loads using the CBEMA/ITIC curve is proposed for transfer operation of the static switch. The proposed detection algorithm is implemented to get fast detecting time through the comparison of instantaneous 3-phase voltage values transferred to DC values in the synchronous reference frame with the operating reference values. To get the robust characteristics against the noise, a first order digital filter is designed. The magnitude falling and phase delay caused by the filter are compensated through the error normalizing and numerical analysis using transfer function, respectively. Finally, the validity of the proposed algorithm is proved by ACSL simulation and experimental results.

In the field of science and technology, influential international journals can easily be found in SCIE. A total number of journals published by societies or institutes in Korea are only 82 of the 8,300 SCIE titles. In this study, in light of the SCI criteria the detailed analysis, of these journals was performed for Korean SCIE journals. The results show that in general domestic journals were not actively cited, had a low level of internationality, and user services through the website was insufficient. Korean SCIE journals should continue to complement these points and elevate its reputation. Candidate journals should concentrate on recruiting more excellent papers, promoting communication with foreign researchers, enhancing domestic and international public relations, and the like. To actively support the domestic publication of excellent journals, long-term and short-term measures should be established and consistently practiced at the national level.

In this paper, a 2 GHz tapered shape of multiport power divider/combiner modified from the model published by [10] and adopted PBG(Photonic Band Gap) structure is proposed. Parameters determining electrical property of the circuit structure have been analyzed by HFSS simulation. For input matching, balance of output signals and phase linearity at each output port, one circular hole has been etched out on the circuit surface. 1:2 and 1:3 power dividers/combiners designed by this study have been compared with the same circuits designed by the method of [10] in terms of S-parameters. As a result, it has been found that tile modified structure and PBG of power divider/combiner have improved return loss more than 20 dB and another 18 dB. respectively, at 2 GHz.

Using evanescent field coupling between single ($LP_{01}$) and double ($LP_{01}, LP_{11}$) mode optical fiber, we selected LPII mode beam. With a $LP_{11}$ mode beam from a double mode fiber. we fabricated $LP_{11}$ mode fiber optic resonant ring interferometer, and assured that the guided mode is $LP_{11}$ mode from a radiation beam coming through the prism output coupler. When an external perturbation applied to the signal arm of the $LP_{11}$ fiber optic resonant ring interferometer, we examined the change of radiation mode coming from a prism output coupler and an end of optical fiber. Using two photodiode, LPn mode beam converted to voltage. This two output voltages is applied to X and Y terminal of oscilloscope to display circular motion on oscilloscope.

The incompletion of TIR (Total Internal Reflection) in FTIR (Frustrated Total Internal Reflection) touch screen has been investigated as follows. Assuming a 3 layer thin film of medium1 ($n_1$)-medium2 ($n_2$)-medium3 ($n_3$) with refraction indices of $n_1=n_3{\neq}n_2$, it was theoretically proven that FTIR or OT (ordinary transmission) phenomena might happen through medium2 from medium1 to medium3 relying on relative difference in $n_1(=n_3)$ and $n_2$, and that the formulae for FTIR and OT could be transformed into each other depending on the number state (imaginary or real) of the light wave phase. In parallel to the theoretical analysis, the incompletion of TIR in acrylate due to external contacts was also elucidated from the experimental and phenomenological viewpoints. On the basis of this considerate work, we explained how to improve the touching performance for better FTIR touch screen.

Fiber Bragg grating which has a blazed ang1e to the plane of incident wave generates a side-mode as well as main-mode. The side-mode has an identical characteristics with a long period grating that couples with a cladding mode, so rejects the special wavelength. We experimented on the side-mode characteristics with two fibers which Ge doped depressed index fiber and very high photosensitive H$_2$ loaded step index fiber according to the tilted angle. Also, using a phase mask equipped with rotation plate which has 0.02$^{\circ}$ resolution, we can control the bandwidth and the peak value of a total loss spectrum by aligned tilted grating in a fiber and using this, tried to compose the ASE band rejection filter of the Erbium doped fiber amplifier.
