This paper deals with an optimal angle error reduction method of magnetic hall sensor using hall effect elements with yoke. The magnetic position sensor is required to generate ideal sine and cosine waveforms from its hall effect elements according to rotation angle for precise angle information. However, the output signals are easy to include harmonics due to uneven magnetic field distribution from disturbance in the vicinity of hall effect elements. Thus, The paper studies a way which makes sine and cosine waveforms robust in disturbance and reduces harmonics by installing a yoke around Hall effect elements. The angle detection simulation for the magnetic hall sensor is performed by 3 dimensional finite element method and Taguchi method, one of the design of experiments. For the Taguchi method, three design parameters related to position of hall effect elements and shape of hall effect element yoke are selected.

This research suggested that the extraction of respiratory rate could be made possible by using frequency analysis in the data process for clip-type pulsimeter equipped with permanent magnet and Hall sensor. The pulse analysis included of cardiac motion information depending on variation of pulse waveforms is investigated by means of Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT). The peaks of FFT spectrums measured at 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 tempos are coincided to each respiratory rate having 0.125 Hz, 0.16 Hz, 0.25 Hz, 0.33 Hz, and 0.41 Hz, respectively. The FFT spectrum using algorithm for the extraction of respiratory rate showed the best pulse waves measured during 300 s. Based upon these results, the clip-type pulsimeter could extract the effective respiratory rate reflecting physical effects.

The holes with a diameter of $35{\mu}m$ inside the GMR-SV (giant magnetoresistance-spin valve) film were patterned by using the photolithography process and ECR (electron cyclotron resonance) Ar-ion milling. From the magnetoresistance curves of the GMR-SV film with holes measuring by 4-electrode method, the MR (magnetoresistance ratio) and MS (magnetic sensitivity) are almost same as the values of initial states. On other side hand, the $H_{ex}$ (exchange bias coupling field) and $H_c$ (coercivity) dominantly increased from 120 Oe and 10 Oe to 190 Oe and 41 Oe as increment of the number of holes inside GMR-SV film respectively. These results were shown to be attributed to major effect of EMD (easy magnetic domian) having a region positioned between two holes perpendicular to the sensing current. On the basis of this study, the fabrication of GMR-SV applying to the hole formation improved the magnetoresistance properties having the thermal stability and durability of bio-device.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of a Si Hall sensor fabricated on a SOI (Si-on-insulator) structure. The SOI structure was formed by SDB(Si-wafer direct bonding) technology and the insulator of the SOI structure was used as the dielectrical isolation layer of a Hall sensor. The Hall voltage and sensitivity of the implemented SDB SOI Hall sensors showed good linearity with respect to the applied magnetic flux density and supplied current. The product sensitivity of the SDB SOI Hall sensor was average 600V/A.T and its value has been increased up to 3 times compared to that of bulk Si with buried layer of 10.mu.m. Moreover, this sensor can be used at high-temperature, high-radiation and in corrosive environments.

MFL(magnetic flux leakage) inspection is a general method of non-destructive evaluation(NDE) of underground gas pipelines. Pipelines are magnetized by permanent magnets when MFL PIG(pipeline inspection gauge) gets through them. If defects or corrosions exist in pipelines, effective thickness is changed and thus variation of leakage flux occurs. The leakage flux signals detected by hall-sensors are analyzed to characterize defect's geometries such as length, width, depth, and so on. This paper presents several methods for estimating defect's length using MFL signals and their performances are compared for real defects carved in KOGAS pipeline simulation facility. It is found that 80% and 90% of minimum values for axial and peak values for radial signals respectively show the best performance in the point of length estimation error.

자기누설탐상시스템은 지하에 매설된 가스관에서 발생되는 부식이나 크랙 또는 기계적 변형을 탐지하기 위한 방법으로 비파괴검사 방법의 하나이다. 가스관은 Nd자석에 의해 착자가 되고, 가스관에 부식이 발생했을 경우 가스관의 단면적이 작아지게 되어 자기누설이 발생하며, 발생된 자기누설을 홀센서로 검출하여 부식의 유무, 크기, 모양 등을 판별하게 된다. 지하매설 배관은 배관의 직경은 같으나 배관의 두께는 다양하게 존재한다. 특히 30inch의 배관에는 배관의 두께가 11.1, 14.3, 17.5 mm 등이 있다. 자기누설탐상시스템은 배관의 단면적 변화를 감지하는 것이기 때문에 배관의 두께에 따라 그 특성이 변화하게 된다. 또한 두께에 따른 결함의 종류에 따라서 검출신호도 변화하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 배관의 두께 변화에 따른 검출신호를 분석하였으며, 두께 변화의 영향을 적용하여 검출신호를 보정하기 위한 방법을 제시하였다.

The existing USB connection type of the clip-type pulsmeter equipped with a Hall sensor and a permanent magnet does not have any error or malfunction to measure the pulse wave. The property of the wireless networking system communicating the pulse wave data through the wireless LAN communication by combination USB with Ethernet and Ethernet to Wi-Fi converting system instead of existing USB connection method was investigated. There are exited that the patient needs to stay at close site of the desktop PC without USB connector and the wireless transfer and receiver networking system has pulse wave measurement SW to receive the pulse wave data. Thus it is expected that the study becomes helpful to measure and transfer the exact pulse wave of the patient in a comfortable pose at close range.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of magnetic levitation kits for use in the hands on experiments of automatic control, digital control and microprocessor applications in the division of mechatronics in Samcheok university. The kits are developed inspired by MIT's design, but it is designed on the digital basis, whereas MIT's is designed on the analog basis. As a result, the kits can be monitored and controlled on the analog and digital control techniques. Furthermore, the cost of kit components is comparable or lower to that of MIT design. And the kits can be controlled with magnetic hall sensors and/or infrared sensors, which provides more versatile experience on the use of sensors and signal filtering to the students. The design is fabricated and tested by authors and will be provided to the students as lab projects. The kits will be intentionally presented with a device that is poorly instrumented and poorly compensated. And the students are expected to analyze sensor signal and controller performance, and then, perform compensator design and signal filtering.
