In this paper, the image restoration process is interpreted as a backward diffusion process and the restored image is given as the solution of the backward diffusion equation (BDF). The ill-posedness of the backward diffusion if subdued by manipulating the exponentially increasing coefficients of the eigenfunctions. In manipulating the coefficients the spectral characteristics of an image is taken into account. The proposed scheme uses an exponentially decreasing function of the coefficients of the eigenfunctions beyond a certain threshold which is optimal with respect to the observation accuracy. The use of decreasing functions also improves the result compared with the constant bounded algorithm since it can include more low frequency components.

This paper presents an adaptive image enhancement method using the spatial frequency property in the DCT(discrete cosine transform) compressed domain. The dc coefficients, the illumination components of image, are adjusted to compress the dynamic range of image, and the ac coefficients are modified to enhance the contrast by using the human visual system(HVS) and the spatial frequency property. The ac coefficients are separated into vertical direction, horizontal direction, and mixed spatial frequency components, and adaptively modified to minimize the block artifacts that possibly occur in the image enhancement. The proposed method using dynamic range compression and adaptive contrast enhancement shows the advanced performance without the block artifact compared with existing method.

포항가속기 연구소의 선형가속기에는 22개의 솔레노이드 전자석, 16개의 사극전자석 그리고 전자빔의 궤도 조절을 위한 16개의 2극 전자석이 있다. 선형가속기의 빔을 저장링으로 공급해주는 빔 전송선에는 22개의 사극전자석과 13개의 빔 궤도 조절용 이극 전자석이 있다. 전자빔의 정밀 제어를 위하여 전자석의 전원장치는 출력전류 분해능은 16bit 이상이고 출력전류의 안정도는 최대출력에 대하여 ${\pm}50ppm$ 이하의 고정밀 고안정도가 요구된다. 이를 위하여 풀-브릿지 4상한 DC/DC 컨버터를 이용한 전자석전원장치를 개발 하였다. 전원장치의 입력전압 직류 40V이고 출력전류는 단방향 전원장치는 최대 50A/50V 이고 양방향 전원장치는 ${\pm}20A/20V$이다. 스위칭 주파수는 50 kHz이다. 전원장치의 출력부에 필터가 없으면 출력전류에는 스윗칭과 관련된 주파수 성분이 포함 되고 전자빔은 이들 주파수 성분에 대하여 영향을 받게 된다. 이러한 이유로 출력 필터의 cut-off 주파수는 5 kHz 이하가 되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 고정밀 고안정 스윗칭 전자석전원장치를 위한 출력필터의 설계, 제작 그리고 이를 적용한 전자석전원장치에 대하여 논의 하고자 한다.

In this paper, the different frequency component and time informations from an EMI signal are extracted simultaneously using a wavelet transform and the results of transform in the time and frequency domain are analyzed. Frequencies are extracted from the EMI signal by performing the multiresolution analysis using the Daubechies-4 filter coefficients and the time information through the results of wavelet transform. We have tried the correlation analysis to evaluate the results of wavelet transform. We have chosen the optimal wavelet function for an object signal by comparing the transformed results of various wavelet functions and verified the simulation examples of waveform and harmonic analysis using a wavelet transform. We have proved the denoising effect to the EMI signal using the soft thresholding technique.

For the fault diagnosis of three-phase induction motors, we propose a diagnosis algorithm based on mutual information and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The experimental unit consists of machinery module for induction motor drive and data acquisition module to obtain the fault signal. As the first step for diagnosis procedure, DFT is performed to transform the acquired current signal into frequency domain. And then, frequency components are selected according to discriminate order calculated by mutual information As the next step, feature extraction is performed by LDA, and then diagnosis is evaluated by k-NN classifier. The results to verify the usability of the proposed algorithm showed better performance than various conventional methods.

A novel frequency multiplier using composite right/left-handed transmission line is proposed. The left-handed transmission line in the proposed frequency multiplier suppresses the fundamental component($f_0$), while the composite right/left-handed ${\lambda}/4$ open stub diminishes unwanted harmonics. Due to the combination of the left-handed transmission line and composite right/left-handed ${\lambda}/4$ open stub, the only desirable multiplied frequency component such as 3 $f_0$ and 4 $f_0$ are obtained at the output port excellently. For the example of the proposed design, frequency multipliers are designed at 1 GHz of $f_0$ and measured. The measured output power of 3 $f_0$ and 4 $f_0$ is -5.67 dBm and -6.43 dBm, respectively, when the fundamental input power was 0 dBm.

The performance of blind source separation(BSS) using independent component analysis (ICA) declines significantly in a reverberant environment. A post-processing method proposed in this paper was designed to remove the residual component precisely. The proposed method used modified NLMS(normalized least mean square) filter in frequency domain, to estimate cross-talk path that causes residual cross-talk components. Residual cross-talk components in one channel is correspond to direct components in another channel. Therefore, we can estimate cross-talk path using another channel input signals from adaptive filter. Step size is normalized by input signal power in conventional NLMS filter, but it is normalized by sum of input signal power and error signal power in modified NLMS filter. By using this method, we can prevent misadjustment of filter weights. The estimated residual cross-talk components are subtracted by non-stationary spectral subtraction. The computer simulation results using speech signals show that the proposed method improves the noise reduction ratio(NRR) by approximately 3dB on conventional FDICA.

This paper proposes a single-phase Phase-locked loop (PLL) of the virtual two phase generator using full-order state observer, which is essential to find phase and frequency of the single-phase source. The conventional methods cannot remove the low-order harmonics included in source voltage, which influencesto whole PLL control system. The proposed algorithm separates fundamental wave from harmonics, and removes harmonics effectively. Therefore it generates only the fundamental wave. As it controls virtual voltage and input voltage together, it decreases steady-state error. From simulation and experimental results, the generated frequency by the proposed PLL which it plans, converges to the actual value, and the steady-state error is much reduced under given harmonic voltages. It is also confirmed that the proposed algorithm removed harmonics effectively and it generates only the fundamental wave.

본 연구에서는 GaAs p-i-n 접합 구조에 InAs 양자점을 삽입한 양자점 태양전지(Quantum Dot Solar Cell; QDSC)의 내부 전기장(internal electric field)을 조사하기 위하여 Photoreflectance (PR) 방법을 이용하였다. QDSC 구조는 GaAs p-i-n 구조의 공핍층 내에 8주기의 InAs 양자점 층을 삽입하였으며 각 양자점 층은 40 nm 두께의 i-GaAs로 분리하였다. InAs/GaAs QDSC는 분자선박막 성장장치(molecular beam epitaxy; MBE)를 이용하여 성장하였다. 이 때 양자점의 형성은 InAs 2.0 ML(monolayer)를 기판온도 $470^{\circ}C$에서 증착하였다. QDSC 구조에서 여기광원의 세기에 따른 전기장의 변화를 조사하였다. 아울러 양자점 층 사이의 i-GaAs 층 내에 6.0 nm의 AlGaAs 퍼텐셜 장벽(potential barrier)을 삽입하여 퍼텐셜 장벽 유무에 따른 전기장 변화를 조사하였다. PR 측정에서 여기광원으로는 633 nm의 He-Ne 레이저를 이용하였으며 여기광의 세기는 $2mW/cm^2$에서 $90mW/cm^2$까지 변화를 주어 여기광세기 의존성실험을 수행하였다. 여기광의 세기가 증가할수록 photovoltaic effect에 의한 내부 전기장의 변화를 관측할 수 있었다. PR 결과로부터 p-i-n 구조의 p-i 영역과 i-n 접합 계면의 junction field를 검출하였다. p-i-n의 i-영역에 양자점을 삽입한 경우 PR 신호에서 Franz-Keldysh oscillation (FKO)의 주파수가 p-i-n 구조와 비교하여 변조됨을 관측하였다. 이러한 FKO 주파수성분은 fast Fourier transform (FFT)을 이용하여 검출하였다. FKO의 주파수 성분들은 고전기장하에서 electron-heavyhole (e-hh)과 electron-lighthole (e-lh) 전이에 의해 나타나는 성분으로 확인되었다.

In this paper, we proposed a new detection method of pH image to effectively measure a 2-dimensional pH distribution of test materials by irradiating an frequency modulated light to LAPS using a reticle. It could measure simultaneously signals in one line by applying a modulated light having difference frequency for each pixel using a frequency modulating reticle, and calculating an amplitude with respect to a frequency component by the light source. To experiment the proposed method, we designed and implemented a reticle considering of a LAPS's characteristic, and reconstructed an image by frequency analysis using the implemented reticle and test pattern image. As a result, we verified that the proposed method using the reticle was able to detect 30 times faster for a $30{\times}30$ pixels pH image having a PSNR of 22-24 [dB] than conventional method.
