Underwater acoustic communication channel is often defined as a multipath fading channel since the multipath arrivals from various paths interfere with each other and cause frequency dependent constructive or destructive interference in received signals. Therefore signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of received signal fluctuates as a function of frequency. In addition, sea surface fluctuation induces frequency dependent time variant signal fading due to coherent component variation of surface bounce path. The frequency shift keying (FSK) system is known to be less sensitive and more robust under these interference and fading, and M-ary frequency shift keying (MFSK) system is adopted to increase a data rate. In this study, a bit error rate (BER) of 4 channels 4FSK system are examined in shallow sea multipath channel. Experimental results show that RS code reduces efficiently the BER of 4FSK system since frequency dependent time-varying fading is characterized to give burst errors. The BER of a different data rate or different source-to-receiver range depends on not only the channel coherent bandwidth but also frequency dependent multipath fading.

Sound absorption capability and anatomical features of the organosolv pretreated Japanese larch and yellow poplar wood were estimated by stereoscopic observation and two microphone transfer function method. Sound absorption capabilities of organosolv treated wood, in the entire estimated frequency range (50~6,400 Hz), were higher than those of control specimen. Especially, the treated wood's absorption capabilities measured in the frequency range of 2~4 kHz were about two times higher than those of control specimen. By the organosolv pretreatment (at $70{\sim}120^{\circ}C$), the weight loss of wood occurred in less than 1% of total weight of wood and the porosity of wood increased slightly. In addition, it was presupposed that microstructural changes of wood occurred during organosolv pretreatment and this structural changes cause the increasing of the sound absorption capability of wood.

The purpose of the present study is to compare the reduction rate of natural frequency and the increase rate of damping parameter with structural damage in system. For this purpose, experiment and numerical simulation analysis are performed for the 2-span H-Beam with lower natural frequency and higher damping parameter from free vibration in structure. The response signal by impact load before and after damage is analyzed at 14 locations. The response signals for all locations are performed fast fourier transform to estimate the natural frequency reduction rate and wavelet transform to estimate the damping parameter increase rate. The time domain function corresponding to each scale(frequency) is separated from the response signal by wavelet parameter. The estimation of damping parameter increase rate using wavelet transform is more sensitive than the estimation of natural frequency reduction rate in structure.

The rheological properties of highly filled epoxy molding compound(EMC) for semi-conductor encapsulants are greatly affected by the content of filler loaded. In this study, the change of viscosity of EMC for semi-conductor encapsulants with the filler content was investigated. Also, both of Cox-Merz and modified Cox-Merz equations were applied to convert the viscosity change as a function of frequency to that of shear rate. It was ovserved that shear thinning and yield stress occured at high filler contents and that the Cox-Merz equation could not be applied at high filler contents because of the difference of viscosity according to the various strains. When the modified Cox-Merz equation was applied, the all the curves having different strain tend to be represented by one master curve, even though some deviation was obseved at high filler content and strain.

Agile frequency synthesizers are the common device used for commandable, wide-band frequency hopping in frequency-hopped (FH) communications. In this paper, synthesizer phase transient effect and its compensation methods in an FH/FSK(Frequency Hopped Frequency Shift Keying) system are studied. Models for these analysis are developed and resulting performance degradations are computed. The basic PLL is difficult to implement for fast frequency hopping in narrowband radio communication systems. To solve this problem, digital frequency synthesizer/CPM (Continuous Phase Modulation)modulator is proposed. And it's performance is analyzed theoretically. The analysis show that fast frequency hopping is possible in frequency hopping system that use digital frequency synthesizer/CPM modulator.

본 논문에서는 ZVT 인터리브드 양방향 LDC의 순환전류 손실 저감을 위한 스위칭 주파수 변조 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 컨버터 회로는 ZVT 동작을 수행하기 위해 보조 인덕터 전류가 부하 전류보다 커야하는 조건이 필요하다. 하지만 부하전류 변화에도 불구하고 보조 인덕터 순환전류는 변하지 않고 같은 값을 유지하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 부하 전류가 감소함에 따라 도통 손실이 발생하여 컨버터의 효율이 감소한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 부하 전류와 시비율에 따른 최적의 주파수 값을 적용하여 보조 인덕터 순환 전류의 크기를 변화시켰다. 따라서 도통 손실을 저감시켰고 컨버터의 전반적인 효율이 증가함을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 기법은 실험을 통해 검증되었다.

Measurements of volumetric water content and saturation of porous media are very important factors in understanding the physical characteristics of soil, groundwater recharge by rainfall, pollutant movement, and slope failure. To measure such physical parameters, a permittivity method using electromagnetic wave is applied and use is made of the special permittivity response of understand to water and ethanol. In particular, the estimation is required because permittivity is influenced by the nature of the underground environment. In this study, we carried out experiments on the relative dependency of soil density, temperature and salinity of standard sand and granitic weathered soil using FDR-V system (Frequency domain reflectometry with vector network analyzer) within a frequency range of 1 - 18 GHz. The results of the study showed that the dielectric constants of standard sand and granitic weathered soil increased with increased volumetric water content of soil. However, the dependency of soil density was found to be a little low. Changes of dielectric constant with temperature appeared definitely in the real part of 1 GHz. That is, the dielectric constant of real part at 1 GHz of water and standard sand increased with the rise of temperature. However, ethanol showed decreased tendency. The study also showed that dielectric constant increased with increase in salinity at imaginary part of 1 GHz. It could be concluded from this study FDR-V system can adequately measure the physical properties of soil and the degree of salinity concentration of porous media within 1 GHz frequency range using dielectric constant.

본 논문은 수치해석을 이용하여 와전류센서의 설계 및 특성을 고찰하였다. 와전류센서의 설계에 있어서 직경 및 폭을 변화시켰다. 와전류센서에 인가되는 주파수와 lift-off, 도전율의 변화에 대해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석을 통해 와전류센서의 임피던스값을 산출하고 정규화 임피던스도를 그려 와전류센서의 특성을 살펴 보았다. 수치해석결과, 와전류센서의 폭을 크게 하는 것 보다. 직경을 크게 하는 것이 감도가 좋은 특성을 나타냈다. lift-off효과는 와전류센서와 시험대상 사이의 거리가 작을수록 감도가 좋았다. 도전율 변화에 따른 특성은 도전율이 증가할수록 임피던스도의 반원의 궤적이 아래로 향하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 코일을 이용한 비접촉 방식의 맥박 측정 시스템의 효율적인 설계 방안을 제시한다. 인덕턴스와 커패시턴스의 값에 따라 발진 주파수가 변동되는 콜피츠 발진기를 사용함으로써 혈류의 흐름에 따른 인덕턴스의 변화를 측정하였다. 실험은 2가지로 구성되며 첫 번째는 코일 위에 손가락을 올려놓은 상태로 측정하는 방식이며 두 번째는 반지 형식으로 감겨진 코일을 손가락 끝에 착용하였을 때이다. 코일 내부에서 가장 높은 자력선 밀도를 가지므로 첫 번째 방식보다 두 번째 방식에서 더 높은 투자율의 변화를 감지할 수 있다. 결과적으로 광용적맥파 신호와의 비교 실험을 통하여 맥파로서의 유의성을 검증하였다.

초고속 전력선 통신을 위한 고주파수 대역에서 안정적인 자기적 특성을 갖는 Ni-Zn ferrite를 개발하기 위해서 투자율은 낮지만 주파수 특성이 우수한 $Ni_{0.8}Zn_{0.2}Fe_2O_4$를 기본조성으로 입자를 성장시키는 $Bi_2O_3$를 0.7, 비저항을 증가 시키는 CaO를 0.3, 그리고 입자를 균일하게 하는 $V_2O_5$를 0.1 wt% 첨가하여 미세구조를 제어하고, 다시 고주파 특성을 향상시킬 것으로 기대되는 $Co_3O_4$를 0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 wt%로 변화시켜 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. $Co_3O_4$가 밀도 및 미세구조에는 영향을 미치지 않았으나 0.3, 0.5 wt% 첨가시 첨가하지 않은 조성보다 투자율은 감소하였으나 사용 한계 주파수로 여겨지는 공명주파수가 각각 19.905, 19.205 MHz로 크게 증가하였다. 그리고 전체 전력 손실도 $Co_3O_4$를 첨가했을 때 감소하였으나 첨가량에는 큰 변화가 없었다. 와전류 손실이 전체 전력손실에 지배적인 영향을 미치고 있다.
