In modern-war campaign, precision-guided missiles are dominantly used to minimize the collateral damage. Imaging infrared seekers are widely applied for the precise guidance. Due to the high cost of the infrared detector, the cost for the one-shot weapon's test is a burden for the development. To reduce the test cost, a simulation method including imagery tracking is required, which is so-called integrated-flight simulation(IFS). The synthetic image generation(SIG)-based simulation method is typically used, which however cannot represent various environmental and target conditions. In this paper, a new IFS method is proposed using on-sight measured image to overcome the limitations of the SIG-based IFS(SIIFS). The target image acquired at the launching sight has been used only for checking the performance criteria of the image tracker and has not been tried for IFS since it has low resolution and little information. The study described in this paper, however, shows that the on-sight image-based IFS can predict the pre- and mid-course flight performance quite similarly and is very useful for the flight test analysis.

Enormously sized buildings are appearing world-wide with the advancement of construction techniques. Large-scaled and complicated structures will have increased difficulties for dealing with safety, and will demand well-matched safety measures. This research introduced up-to-date techniques and systems which are applied in buildings in foreign nations. Furthermore, it proposed s direct guidance plan for buildings in case of fire. Since it is possible to install wireless sensor networks which detect fires or effects of fire, the plan makes use of this information. Accordingly, the authors completed a direct guidance plan that was based on omnidirectional guidance lights. It is possible to select a route with concern about both time and capacity with a concept of a non-dominated path. Finally, case studies showed that quickest path algorithms were effective for guiding efficient dispersion routes and in case of restriction of certain links in preferred paths due to temperature and smoke, it was possible to avoid relevant links and to restrict demand in the network application. Consequently, the algorithms were able to maximize safety and minimize evacuation time, which were the purposes of this study.

Ad hoc sensor network is characterized by decentralized structure and ad hoc deployment. Sensor networks have all basic features of ad hoc network except different degrees such as lower mobility and more stringent energy requirements. Existing protocols provide different tradeoffs among some desirable characteristics such as fault tolerance, distributed computation, robustness, scalability and reliability. wireless protocols suggested so far are very limited, generally focusing on communication to a single base station or on aggregating sensor data. The main reason having such restrictions is due to maximum lifetime to maintain network activities. The network lifetime is an important design metric in ad hoc networks. Since every node does a router role, it is not possible for other nodes to communicate with each other if some nodes do not work due to energy lack. In this paper, we suggest an experimental ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing protocol to optimize the communication of energy of the network nodes.The load distribution avoids the choice of exhausted nodes at the route selection phase, thus balances the use of energy among nodes and maximizing the network lifetime. In transmission control phase, there is a balance between the choice of a high transmission power that lead to increase in the range of signal transmission thus reducing the number of hops and lower power levels that reduces the interference on the expense of network connectivity.

Many researches on path planning and obstacle avoidance for the fundamentals of mobile robot have been done. Informations from various sensors can find obstacles and make path. In spite of many solutions of finding optimal path, each can be applied to only a constrained condition. This means that it is difficult to find a universal algorithm. A optimal path with a complicated computation generates a time delay which cannot avoid moving obstacles. In this paper, we propose the algorithm of path planning and obstacle avoidance for mobile robot. We call the proposed method Random Access Sequence(RAS) method. In the proposed method, a small region is set first and numbers are assigned to its neighbors, then the path is selected using these numbers. It has an advantage of fast planning and simple operation. This means that new path selection may be possible within short time and that helps a robot to avoid obstacle in any direction. When a robot meets moving obstacles, it avoids obstacles in a random direction. RAS method using obstacle information from variable sensors is useful to get minimum path length to goal.

The main drawback of filtered-X LMS(FXLMS) algorithm for the ANC of broadband noises is its low convergence speed when the filtered reference signals are strongly correlated, producing a large eigenvalue ratio in correlation matrix. This correlation can be caused either by autocorrelation of the signals of the reference sensors, or by coupling between the error path which introduces intercorrelation in the filtered reference signals. In this paper, we introduce a transform domain FXLMS(TD-FXLMS) algorithm that has a high convergence speed by orthogonal transform's decorrelation properties.

Recently, RF energy harvesting technology is a promising technology for small-size IoT(Internet of Things) devices such as sensor to resolve battery scarcity problem. When applied to existing cognitive radio networks, this technology can be expected to increase network throughput through the increase of cognitive user's operating time. This paper proposes a optimal channel-selection policy for RF energy harvesting CR networks model where cognitive users in harvesting zone harvest ambient RF energy from transmission by nearby active primary users and the others in non-harvesting zone choose the channel and communicate with their receiver. We consider that primary users and secondary users are distributed as Poisson point processes and contact with their intended receivers at fixed distances. Finally we can derive the optimal frame duration, transmission power and density of secondary user from the proposed model that can maximize the secondary users's throughput under the given several conditions and suggest future directions of research.

Detection and processing techniques for small objects on seabed by the active synthetic aperture sonar can be increased the detection performance because it can be used by short sensor array in small unmanned underwater systems that are spatially constrained. But the limited conditions on constant speed and straight movement of the platform cause a large error in the number of external environmental factors and exact phase synthesis process. In this study, analyzed the applicability of active synthetic aperture processing that is mounted on such a system, and compared detection resolution change in accordance with the phase difference mismatch caused by the along track disturbance. Various simulations were performed as a coherently focus processing model by adding along track disturbance mismatched parameter on the configuring simulator. As the result, detection performance of active synthetic processing for small objects on seabed was found a number of changes by the phase difference mismatch errors according to track disturbances and S/N ratio variations.

Many researches on path planning and obstacle avoidance for the fundamentals of mobile robot have been done recently. Informations from various sensors can be used to find obstacles and plan feasible path. In spite of many solutions of finding optimal path, each can be applied in only a constrained condition. This means that it is difficult to find university good algorithm. An optimal path with a complicated computation generates a time delay which cannot avoid moving obstacles. In this paper, we propose an algorithm of path planning and obstacle avoidance for mobile robot. We call the proposed method Random Access Sequence(RAS) method. In the proposed method, a small region is set first and numbers are assigned to its neighbors, then the path is selected using these numbers and cumulative numbers. It has an advantage of fast planning time and completeness of path if one exists. This means that new path selection may be possible within short time and that helps a robot to avoid obstacle in dynamic environments. Using the information of the start and destination position, the RAS can be performed for collision-free navigation by reforming feasible paths repeatedly in dynamic environments.

최근 국내·외에서는 재래식 소류사량 채집기를 이용한 직접계측방법의 한계를 보완하기 위해 음향센서(하이드로폰)를 활용하여 소류사가 이동할 때 발생하는 충돌음 신호로부터 소류사량을 간접적으로 추정하는 방법이 개발 검토되고 있다. 이러한 방법은 하이드로폰에 계측된 음향신호의 특성 중 음향 펄스 수와 소류사량의 상관성을 해명하는 연구가 주를 이루고 있다. 그러나 기존의 펄스 카운트 알고리즘은 원시신호에 대한 불충분한 노이즈 필터링 작업과 음향특성 중 진폭만을 고려하여 임계치를 설정하였기 때문에 운송되는 소류사량이 많을 경우 신호 파형의 중첩으로 인한 펄스 수의 과소평가, 감지 가능한 상한 입자 크기가 제한되는 등의 결점을 가지고 있다. 또한 대다수의 연구가 소류사량의 총량과 시계열적인 변화를 추정하는데 주안점을 두고 있어 소류사량의 입도분포를 추정하기 위한 연구사례는 매우 부족한 실정에 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위와 같은 한계를 극복하기 위해 다양한 입경과 유속 조건을 고려한 단독입자 공급 실험을 통해 하이드로폰에서 계측되는 소류사 입경별 충돌음의 진폭과 특정 주파수대역을 기준으로 음향특성치를 효과적으로 필터링 할 수 있는 개선된 Band-Passs Method 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위해 기존의 음향신호 필터링 방법(증폭 채널 방법, 임계치 설정 방법)과 비교·분석을 수행한 결과 제안한 방법이 기존의 필터링 방법보다 높은 소류사량 추정률을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 단일입경 연속공급 실험을 수행하여 입경별 소류사량 추정관계식을 산출하고 혼합입경의 입도분포 추정 가능성을 확인하였다. 연구수행의 최종단계로 혼합입경 소류사량 추정이 가능한 입경별 통합 소류사량 추정 알고리즘을 개발하고 실측 소류사량과의 비교·분석을 통해 알고리즘의 소류사량 추정 정밀도를 검증하였다.

하천의 합류부는 두 개 이상의 하천이 하나로 합쳐지는 구간으로 서로 다른 특성으로 인해 급격한 흐름의 변화와 수리학적 지형변화가 발생하는 구간이다. 하천의 합류부에서는 유체의 물리화학적인 특성과 흐름 구조의 변화가 발생할 수 있다. 흐름 구조의 변화로 인한 유사 이송으로 세굴과 같은 지형적인 변화가 발생할 수 있다. 합류부의 혼합을 이해하기 위해서는 본류와 지류의 다양한 유입조건에 따른 공간적인 패턴을 분석하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나, 대부분의 합류부 연구들은 실측에 기반한 공간적인 패턴 분석의 어려움으로 인해 실내실험 또는 수치모형에 의존하여 연구가 수행되어, 실측자료에 기반한 공간적인 수체혼합의 분석은 매우 제한적이었다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 하천 합류부의 혼합 현상을 규명하는 인자로 흐름 방향 유속, 2차류와 수심 등 기본적인 수리학적 인자들 외에 연직, 수평 방향으로 측정한 수질 자료와 드론 영상을 활용하여 합류부의 혼합 특성을 해석하고자 하였다. 수질 자료 중 하천의 혼합을 가장 잘 확인할 수 있는 인자로써 전기전도도와 온도를 활용하였다. SonTek ADCP를 이동식으로 횡단하여 측정해 흐름 방향 유속과 2차류, 수심을 확인하였다. ADCP를 운용함과 동시에 YSI의 수질센서를 활용하여 연직, 수평 방향으로의 전기전도도와 온도의 분포를 확인하였다. 또한, 합류부의 2차원 공간적인 분포를 확인하기 위해 드론 영상을 촬영하였다. ADCP, YSI, 드론의 계측자료는 한국의 낙동강과 남강 합류부에서 측정되었고, 분석 결과 계측장비 간의 경향성이 일치하였다. 또한, 이전에 진행된 해외의 합류부 연구 결과와 유사한 결과가 관측되었으나, 일부 부분에서는 다른 결과를 보였다.
