High-Pass (ETC ; Electronic Toll Collection) system is one of the basic elements, which adopts a wireless communication method using 5.8 GHz and can realize a part of ITS (Intelligent Traffic System). On the other hand, communication errors occur frequently in Hi-Pass system due to signal erros, multi-path reflection, and/or system-to-system interferences. To solve these problems, an EM (Electro-Magnetic) wave absorber can be used. To solve these Problems, we fabricated some samples in the different composition ratios of Carbon, Sendust, and CPE, and it was confirmed that the optimum composition ratio of Carbon : Sendust : CPE is 10 : 40 : 50 wt.%. The complex relative permittivity and complex relative permeability were derived by using the measured data. In addition, the optimum design parameters for the absorber were determined by simulation. Then the absorption abilities were calculated by changing the thickness of the EM wave absorbers. As a result, the optimum thickness of the developed EM wave absorber was 2.85 mm with absorption ability over 22.4 dB at 5.8 GHz. Futhermore, the EM wave absorber was fabricated based on the simulated and designed values. The measured values agreed well with the simulated ones. Therefore, it was clearly shown that the developed EM wave absorber in this paper is to be applied in actual situations.

This study was performed to investigate the antioxidant activity of Korean ginseng using an ORAC(Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) assay. Four fractions each (80% ethanol, ethyl acetate, water saturated 1-butanol, and water) were obtained from different ginseng samples (White Ginseng: ; 6 yrs-., 5 yrs-., ; Cork Ginseng: ; 5 yrs-., 4 yrs-.). The saponin content of each fraction was quantified by LC/MS, and the antioxidant capacity of the ginseng was measured by the ORAC assay. The ORAC method, which was recently validated using automatic liquid handling systems, has been adapted for manual handling with the use of a conventional fluorescence microplate reader. Furthermore, the ORAC assay provides a direct measure of hydrophilic chain-breaking antioxidant capacity against peroxy radical, which is the exiting and emission of 2,2'-Azobis (2-methylpropionamidine)-dihychloride (AAPH). As a result of our experiments, ginsenosides Rg1 and Rb1 were the two major saponins found in the ginseng samples, and Rc, Rb2, Re, Rd, Rg3, and Rh1 were detected in a small quantities. For the antioxidant capacities of the fractions (80% ethanol, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water), we found that the organic solvent fraction had similar antioxidant capacities, and were higher than the capacity of the water fraction. When determining the similarities in each fraction, only the ethyl acetate fraction showed similarity compared to other fractions (p>0.05). The antioxidant capacity of ginseng may come from phenolic compounds and some nonpolar saponins. However, based on the results of this study, we hypothesize that some acidic polysaccharides and other biological components may contribute to its antioxidant capacity. Additional research is required to determine other possible biological response modifiers that contribute to the antioxidant capacity of ginseng.

Parameters used in a speaker recognition system are desirable expressing speaker's characteristics filly and have in a speech. That is to say, if inter-speaker than intra-speaker variance a big characteristic, it is useful to distinguish between speakers. Also, to make minimum error between speakers, it is required the improved recognition technology as well as the distinguishing characteristics. When we see the result of recent simulation performance, we obtain more exact performance by using dynamic characteristics and constant characteristics by a speaking habit. Therefore we suggest it to solve this problem as followings. The prosodic information is used by a characteristic vector of speech. Characteristics vector generally using in speaker recognition system is a modeling spectrum information and is working for a high performance in non-noise circumstance. However, it is found a problem that characteristic vector is distorted in noise circumstance and it makes a reduction of recognition rate. In this paper, we change pitch line divided by segment which can estimate a dynamic characteristic and it is used as a recognition characteristic. we confirmed that the dynamic characteristic is very robust in noise circumstance with a simulation. We make a decision of acceptance or rejection by comparing test pattern and recognition rate using the proposed algorithm has more improvement than using spectrum and prosodic information. Especially stational recognition rate can be obtained in noise circumstance through the simulation.

A concentration meter is widely used at purification plants, sewage treatment plants and waste water treatment plants to sort and transfer high concentration sludge and to control the amount of chemical dosage. When the strange substance is contained in the sludge, however, the attenuation of ultrasonic wave could be increased or not be transmitted to the receiver. At that case, the value of concentration meter is higher than the actual density value or vibrated up and down. It has also been difficult to automate the residuals treatment process according to the problems as sludge attachment or damage of a sensor. Multi-beam ultrasonic concentration meter has been developed to solve these problems, but the failure of the ultrasonic beam of a specific concentration measurement value degrade the performance of the entire system. This paper proposes the method to improve the accuracy of sludge concentration rate by choosing reliable sensor values and learning them by proposed algorithm. The prediction algorithm is chosen as neuro-fuzzy model, which is tested by the various experiments.

The goal of this study is to implement a communication system that can monitor the status of the nacelle using the power cable itself, without the dedicated communication lines such as an UTP cable and optical fiber for the offshore wind turbine. An inductive coupling powerline communication system for a MW class offshore wind turbine was proposed and its communication performance was demonstrated. The inductive couplers was designed for operation at up to 500 A using a ferrite composite materials. Field test was carried out on the wind farms of Jeju island. Using the iperf communication test program, we have obtained more than 15 Mbps data transmission rate through the 100 m power cable that was installed between the nacelle and the bottom of the power converter. In the data transmission stability test for a week, there was no failure ever. The minimum transmission rate was 15 Mbps and the average data rate was about 20 Mbps. Next, we have installed an infrared camera inside the nacelle in order to measure the temperature distribution and variation of the nacelle. The real-time thermal image taken by the camera was successfully sent to the monitoring system without error.

This research analyzed biosignals associated with the change of emotion from lighting felt by the occupants and task type under various indoor thermal environments and illuminance, and examined the biosignals' impacts on work. To this end, the indoor thermal environment was constructed on the basis of PMV (predicted mean vote) index value, and various indoor environments were created by changing the brightness of LED stands. In this manner, a variety of indoor environments were constructed, and experiments were carried out. This research evaluates the sensibility response to lighting through a questionnaire survey in the given environment and incorporates different types of error searches. In this way, changes were analyzed by measuring electroencephalogram (EEG) and electrocardiograms (ECG). As a result, all biosignals on the task type showed significant differences from the thermal environment change. When PMV index value was 0.8 (temperature: $25^{\circ}C$, humidity: 50 %), concentration and attention were the most activated. However, the biosignals did not show significant differences from the illuminance change. Concentration on an occupant's work capability was confirmed to be closely related to the thermal environment. As for the subjective emotional response to lighting, the occupants felt comfort as illuminance was lower, while they felt discomfort as illuminance was higher. However, there were no significant differences from the thermal environment change.

Several algorithms have been developed to classify arrhythmia which either rely on specific ECG(Electrocardiogram) database. Nevertheless personalized difference of ECG signal exist, performance degradation occurs because of carrying out diagnosis by general classification rule. Most methods require accurate detection of P-QRS-T point, higher computational cost and larger processing time. But it is difficult to detect the P and T wave signal because of person's individual difference. Therefore it is necessary to design efficient algorithm that classifies different arrhythmia in realtime and decreases computational cost by extracting minimal feature. In this paper, we propose arrhythmia classification method using QRS Pattern of ECG signal according to personalized type. For this purpose, we detected R wave through the preprocessing method and define QRS pattern of ECG signal by QRS feature Also, we detect and modify by pattern classification, classified arrhythmia duplicated QRS pattern in realtime. Normal, PVC, PAC, LBBB, RBBB, Paced beat classification is evaluated by using 43 record of MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The achieved scores indicate the average of 99.98%, 97.22%, 95.14%, 91.47%, 94.85%, 97.48% in PVC, PAC, Normal, BBB, Paced beat classification.

Analysis of water-level fluctuation due to goundwater-surface water interaction in coastal aquifers is carried out by numerical modeling. The conceptual model used in this study has a stream boundary and a tidal boundary that forms a right angle and the stream partially penetrates the aquifer. We analyzed the effect of each boundary and the simultaneous effect of the two boundary conditions. The area of influence caused by the stream boundary increased during the simulation, while the influence zone of the coastal boundary was relatively constant. The groundwater level near the zone where two boundaries meet may rise by the action of combined effect of the two boundaries or may not change by cancelling the effect of each boundary. Thereafter, care must be taken when hydraulic parameters are estimated using sinusoidal oscillations of hydraulic head in coastal aquifers. Sensitivity analysis is employed to develop insight into the controls on groundwater level fluctuations. In this study our analyses focused on the effect of conductance and the stream width to the aquifer nearby.
