In this paper, we experimentally investigate the fiber fuse in single-mode 2-kW-class high-power fiber amplifiers, depending on the cooling method at the splicing point. We measured the temperature of the splicing point between the pump-signal combiner and gain fiber as a function of laser output power. The temperature of the splicing point increased from 20 to 32℃ with a slope of 0.01℃/W, up to 1.2 kW of laser output power. At higher powers the temperature of the splicing point increased dramatically, with a slope of 0.08℃/W. After that, the fiber amplifier was destroyed during operation at 1.96 kW of output power by fiber fuse. The bullet shape, a common feature of fiber fuse, was observed in the damaged passive fiber core of the pump-signal combiner. Later, we adopted an improved water-cooled cold plate to increase the cooling efficiency at the splicing point, and investigated the laser output power. The temperature at the splicing point was 35.8℃ with a temperature-rise slope of 0.007℃/W at the maximum output power of 2.05 kW. The beam quality M² was measured to be less than 1.3, and the output beam's profile was a stable Gaussian shape. Finally, neither fiber fuse nor mode instability was observed in the fiber amplifier at the maximum output power of 2.05 kW.

In this paper, we propose a method for performance enhancement of speech declipping using clipping detector. Clipping occurs when the input speech level exceeds the dynamic range of microphone, and it significantly degrades the speech quality. Recently, many methods for high-performance speech declipping based on machine learning have been developed. However, they often deteriorate the speech signal because of degradation in signal reconstruction process when the degree of clipping is not high. To solve this problem, we propose a new approach that combines the declipping network and clipping detector, which enables a selective declipping operation depending on the clipping level and provides high-quality speech in all clipping levels. We measured the declipping performance using various metrics and confirmed that the proposed method improves the average performance over all clipping levels, compared with the conventional methods, and greatly improves the performance when the clipping distortion is small.

최근 기후변화로 우리나라는 과거에 비해 태풍이나 국지성 집중호우 및 가뭄 등 극심한 수문현상이 빈번하게 발생하고 그 피해가 더욱 커지고 있는 추세이다. 특히 우리나라의 경우 산지가 많으며 대부분의 하천이 유역면적이 작고 유로연장이 짧아 단시간에 유출이 발생하며 수문학적 특성이 연중 큰 편차를 보이고 있다. 이러한 이상기후에 따른 수문현상 파악 및 피해 경감을 위해 신뢰성 있는 수문자료는 매우 중요하다. 따라서 수문자료에 대한 품질관리는 필수적이지만 자료 결측 및 오측에 대한 신뢰성 높은 품질관리가 이뤄지지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 현재 수위자료의 결측이 발생한 경우 해당 관측소의 수위 자료를 사용해 선형보간 및 운형자법으로 수정하거나 상·하류 관측소의 관계를 이용하여 회귀분석을 통해 자료 결측의 수정 및 보완을 수행하는 등 담당자의 주관적 판단에 의존하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 신뢰성 높은 수문자료의 결측치 보완 및 예측을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 상류의 관측소의 수문자료를 이용한 하류의 단시간 수문 자료예측에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 자료지향형 모델인 적응형 뉴로-퍼지 기법(Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System, ANFIS)을 이용한 모형을 적용하였다. 기존의 연구에서 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 물리적 모형은 수문자료를 활용하여 수위 및 유출을 산정함에 있어 매개변수의 결정이 어렵고 많은 오차들을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구에서 사용한 ANFIS는 입력자료와 출력자료만을 고려하여 구축할 수 있기 때문에 자료 수집단계에서 유역의 물리적 자료 및 지형 자료와 같은 방대한 양의 자료 수집이 필요가 없다. 이후 모형이 구축이 된다면 입·출력 자료만을 이용하여 신뢰성 높은 결과를 획득할 수 있지만 입력 자료의 품질에 따라 결과가 좌우되기 때문에 자료의 구성이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 ANFIS를 통해 무주남대천 유역의 무주군(여의교) 관측소의 수위자료를 입력자료를 사용하여 하류에 위치한 무주군(취수장) 관측소의 수문자료의 결측 보완 및 예측하는 모형을 구축하고 모형의 구조 변화를 통해 가장 정확도 높은 모형을 결정하였다.

In this paper, we have studied the characteristics of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and mode instability (MI) in a ytterbium-doped polarization-maintaining fiber laser with master oscillator power amplifier configuration. We measured the laser output power and back-reflection spectrum for a variety of ytterbium-doped fibers and seed lights, to investigate the power-scaling limits of fiber lasers. By optimizing the laser structure, we demonstrated an all-fiber high-power polarization-maintaining fiber laser with near-diffraction-limited beam quality. The output power of 1.5 kW was achieved with a linewidth of 10 GHz, generated by pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) phase modulation. The beam quality M² was about 1.15 at the maximum output power. The polarization extinction ratio (PER) was greater than 17 dB.

High-power quasi-continuous-wave (qcw) operation in Yb-doped double-clad fiber lasers with near-diffraction-limited quality of the output beam is reported. Based on numerical simulation, we built a simple, all-fiberized Yb fiber laser, and a fiber-based master-oscillator power amplifier (MOPA). Both laser systems have successfully produced qcw output with average power greater than 150 W at 1080 nm and 10 ms pulse duration at 10 Hz repetition rate, corresponding to a peak power greater than 1.5 kW for 205 W of pump power at 976 nm. Laser performance, including beam quality and slope efficiency, was characterized in both configurations. Prospects for power scaling and applications are discussed.

This paper proposes a comparator structure that improves the noise and output delay of a single-slope ADC(SS-ADC) used in CMOS Image Sensor (CIS). To improve the noise and delay characteristics of the output, a comparator structure using the miller effect is designed by inserting a capacitor between the output node of the first stage and the output node of the second stage of the comparator. The proposed comparator structure improves the noise, delay of the output, and layout area by using a small capacitor. The CDS counter used in the single slop ADC is designed using a T-filp flop and bitwise inversion circuit, which improves power consumption and speed. The single-slope ADC also performs dual CDS, which combines analog correlated double sampling (CDS) and digital CDS. By performing dual CDS, image quality is improved by reducing fixed pattern noise (FPN), reset noise, and ADC error. The single-slope ADC with the proposed comparator structure is designed in a 0.18-㎛ CMOS process.

This study investigates the effects of the Kano model on the product quality and quality satisfaction on the FDM low cost 3D printer, which is used by consumer and makers. 3D printer product quality is analyzed in terms of functionality, usability, durability, reliability and safety based on the inherent quality of the product itself. This study were tested using Kano analysis to calculate the product detail characteristics and Timko coefficient to calculate the degree of satisfactory effects of the 3D printer. As a result, this study becomes product size, the output speed, durability against external impact as attractive quality and the safety part is regarded as One-dimensional quality. With the exception of surface resolution, the Timko customer satisfaction index was the same as the Kano model.

As the web service technology matures. research is focused on the composite web services that combine individual web services within an enterprise or between enterprises. Quality of service is the critical competitiveness factor in this mature technology stage where there are many services with similar functionalities differing only in some non-functional properties. Monitoring is the key component for the service quality management of a web service. A service quality monitoring system design using a broker is presented in this paper. OWL-S is used to specify the composite service process and a service policy (inputs and outputs of each service, quality attributes and values, etc.) built by WS-Policy is applied to the composite service process. If there is any discrepancy between the service policy and the monitored data, the service provider and the user are notified of it so as to take necessary measures. We have implemented a travel reservation system as an example of the presented design and the experimental results are shown. Average response time was monitored and the timeout policy was applied in the experiment.
