A design and implementation method for the UHF-band(800MHz) variable attenuator using the 3dB coupler is proposed. The 90 degree, 3-dB Coupler is used for the variable attenuator. The principal theory for the 3-dB coupler is introduced. The 3-dB Coupler is designed by the mathematical analysis and a computer simulation tool. A PIN diode is used for the variable resistor at UHF-band. The variable attenuator using the 3-dB coupler and the PIN diode is designed and implemented. The measured results for the variable attenuator by a network analyzer show that the insertion loss is below -l0dB, and the continuous variable attenuation range is about 10dB.

In this paper, a simplified type of adaptive controller using Nussbaum gain for the control of the spacecrapt with elastic appendages is suggested. This method doesn't need the information of the high frequency components in transfer function. While the pitch angle tracks the desired value by this method, the elastic modes are also stabilized. Only pitch angle and the pitch rate are used for the design of the output feedback controller. Especially all system parameters and the high frequency gain are assumed to be unknown. For design simplicity, a controller is designed by using only the linear part, and it's shown to satisfy the nonlinear system by the simulation with basic explanations. By using the Lyapunov function, the stability of the suggested algorithm is demonstrated, and also the effectiveness of the suggested algorithm is verified by showing the computer simulation results.

This paper presents a CMOS TIQ flash A/D converter which operates very fast compared to other types of A/D converters due to its parallel architecture. The output resolution of designed A/D converter is 6-bit. In order to reduce the power consumption and chip area of conventional flash A/D converter, TIQ based flash A/D converter is proposed, which uses the advantage of the structure of CMOS transistors. The length and width of transistors of TIQ were determined with HSPICE simulation. To speed up the ultra-high speed flash A/D converter, the Fat Tree Encoder technique is used. The TIQ A/D converter was designed with full custom method. The chip's maximum power consumption was 38.45mW at 1.8V, and the operating speed of simulation was 2.7 GSPS.

This paper presents a 13.56 MHz RFID reader that can be used as a door-lock system for smart home security. The RFID reader consists of a transmitter, a receiver, and a data processing block. To verify the operation of the developed RFID reader, we present both a PSPICE simulation for transmitter/receiver and a digital simulation for data processing block. In particular, a CRC block for error detection of received data and a Manchester decoding block for position detection of collided data are designed using VHDL. In addition, we applied a binary search algorithm for multi-tag anti-collision. The anti-collision procedure is carried out by PIC microcontroller on software. The experimental results show that the developed reader can provide the right multi-tag recognition.

The acquisition of weapons systems test and evaluation in the early stages of the acquisition process as a source of data used for modeling and simulation are being actively encouraged. Thus, in the reliability of weapon systems acquisition can be called the most important part, and M&S to apply for this test reliability and accuracy of the assessment can provide, test time and cost savings, the pre-and post-test predictions and available data can provide. In this study, theoretical study of M&S to acquire weapon systems used for the importance of M&S, acquired the characteristics of the model, utilization for weapon systems acquisition, and weapon systems acquisition review for an effective utilization of M&S tries to find out.

In this paper, we'll show that an improved PDFF controller is obtained by substituting a feedforward compensator in the existing PDFF system with a dual-input describing function, and the controller has the ability of adjusting the bandwidth of a system as well as the phase margin simultaneously. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is confirmed by applying to the DC-motor position control system. As the results of simulation, we know that it is possible to design a controller by which the bandwidth of the closed system and its phase margin are easily adjusted.

In this paper, a new controller using non-linear compensator for position control is presented, which we can satisfy the given specifications more easily than the existing one. We suggest an improved PDFE(Integral with Proportional-Derivative-plus-Feedforward) controller by which both phase margin and bandwidth are controlled simultaneously in the controller design problem. Replacing the feed forward term in the PDFF system with a CDIDF(Complex Dual Input Describing Function), the desired phase margin is obtained without diminishing the bandwidth of the closed loop system. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is confirmed through simulations and experiments. As The results of these, we know that it is possible to adjust overall specifications by varying parameters in the improved PDFF system.

In this study, I studied how to generate input values to achieve the same value as the target value. The general procedures are explained to regenerate the excitation input, which is made by using the frequency response function between input-output. In this study, a mount model connected by a bushing was used as a numerical model. The response value for the excitation input was compared with the target value. The excitation input was corrected to obtain the same response as the target value. Through the iterative process, the reconstructed input value was obtained to have the same response as the test.

An agent-based simulation is a popular simulation tool to solve various problems, such as stock market, population prediction, disease prediction, and development of a traffic system. As the agents are developed and researched in different application fields, the agent has a rigid structure and may not acceptable in different domains. As a result, it is a challenging problem to define a structure for an agent structure to reflect the researcher's simulation objective. This research proposes an extendable form for an agent and its modeling environment. In order to propose a standard structure, this study adopts system entity structure and discrete event system specification formalism. Also, this research introduces the SESManager which supports the proposed specification method. The proposed environment can hierarchically define the agent structure and synthesize the agent so that it can perform the agent simulation according to the user's simulation purpose.

This study is a qualitative study that explores the essential meaning of nursing through a simulation curriculum targeting nursing students. In this study, 18 students, who were 4th grade nursing students at a university in M city, Gyeongsangbuk-do, completed a simulation during the curriculum. Data collection was done through free-form reports and interviews to help students understand the part of nursing they thought through simulation classes. The collected data was analyzed using Krippendorff's phenomenological method. As a result of analyzing the meaning of nursing through simulation class, 3 categories, 10 topics, and 28 meaningful statements were derived. The three categories were derived as 'virtual nursing', 'thinking nursing', and 'together nursing'. As a result of this study, nursing students were seeking their own solution to solve nursing in unpredictable situations based on the philosophy of nursing through virtual simulation. It is expected that this will be used as basic data to develop various and in-depth simulation education programs in the future.
