In this paper, we present a bandpass filter (BPF) based on composite right-/left-handed (CRLH) structure for improving the linearity of the power amplifier. The proposed BPF consist of the inter-digit signal line on the top plane and the complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) on the bottom plane, respectively. The insertion loss is minimized at operation frequency and the 2nd harmonic is suppressed by the bandpass filter using the CRLH structure, respectively. The output power of 33 dBm, the 2nd harmonic of -53.527 dBc, 3rd inter-modulation distortion of -36.16 dBc was obtained at 2.14 GHz, respectively. Compared with the reference power amplifier, the 2nd harmonic of 16 dB and 3rd inter-modulation distortion of 12 dB have been improved at 2.14 GHz, respectively.

In this paper, a 2~6 GHz wideband GaN power amplifier MMIC is designed and fabricated using a second-order all-pass filter for input impedance matching and an LC parallel resonant circuit for minimizing an output reactance component of the transistor. The second-order all-pass filter used for wideband lossy matching is modified in an asymmetric configuration to compensate the effect of channel resistance of the GaN transistor. The power amplifier MMIC chip that is fabricated using a $0.25{\mu}m$ GaN HEMT foundry process of Win Semiconductors, Corp. is $2.6mm{\times}1.3mm$ and shows a flat linear gain of about 13 dB and input return loss of larger than 10 dB. Under a saturated power mode, it also shows output power of 38.6~39.8 dBm and a power-added efficiency of 31.3~43.4 % in 2 to 6 GHz.

배관에 생기는 구멍이나 틈은 대형 사고의 원인이 될 수 있다. 이러한 배관의 결함을 찾기 위해서는 먼저 센서를 부착한 배관 탐사 장비를 배관에 통과시키고, 배관을 통과하는 중에 센서가 읽은 정보들을 배관 탐사 장비의 하드 디스크에 저장한다. 배관 통과가 완료된 후, 분석가는 분석 프로그램을 사용하여 탐사 장비에서 얻은 데이터에서 결함을 수동적으로 찾는다. 분석가가 데이터를 분석할 때 일반적으로 두 가지 패턴이 존재한다. 첫 번째 패턴은 일정한 구간의 센서 데이터를 순차적으로 분석하는 패턴이고, 두 번째 패턴은 현재 구간에서 이전 구간으로 되돌아가서 다시 분석하는 반복적인 패턴이다. 현재까지 만족할 만 한 수준으로 자동적으로 분석이 되지 않으므로, 분석가는 수작업으로 분석을 하는 경우가 많은데 이로 인해 최근에 읽은 부분을 전후 반복해서 액세스하는 반복적인 패턴이 많이 사용된다. 반복적 패턴의 경우 시스템의 성능을 향상시키기 위해, 이전에 읽은 배관 센서 데이터를 캐싱 할 필요가 있다. 그러나 기존의 분석 소프트웨어에는 캐싱 기능이 없으므로 반복적 패턴일 경우 데이터베이스에서 동일한 데이터를 반복적으로 읽는 문제를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 배관 센서 데이터를 효율적으로 관리하는 캐쉬 관리자를 설계하고 구현하였다. 세부적으로는, 배관 센서 데이터를 시계열 데이터로 간주하고, 시계열 데이터에 대한 캐시 관리자를 제안하였다. 본 논문은 배관 탐사 장비에서 획득한 데이터들을 시계열 데이터로 간주하여 데이터베이스 측면에서 이러한 문제들을 접근하였다는 점에서 의미가 있으며, 향후 이 분야에 대한 많은 연구들이 나올 것으로 기대한다.

In the calculation of wave propagation by Boussinesq equation model, it is very common to experience numerical noises generated from nonlinear interaction and breaking wave occurrence, and the numerical solution is rapidly diverged unless the noises are properly controlled. A comparative study was here undertaken for the characteristics of three different lowpass filters (FFT filter, Gaussian filter and Shapiro filter) which are all designed to be applied to the interim results of numerical calculation. The numerical results obtained with application of respective filter techniques were compared with the results of an existing hydraulic experiment for the aspects of noise suppression, conservation of main signal and altering time. The results show that the Shapiro filter can be best applied with optimal choices of its element number, pass number and filtering tune interval. The combination of the number of filter element off, pass number of 50 or less, and application interval of 100 to 200 time steps generally showed good performance in both accuracy and efficiency of the numerical calculation.

We have studied a denoising technique involving wavelet transform for improving the quality of geophysical data during the preprocessing stage. To assess the effectiveness of this technique, we have made synthetic data contaminated by random noises and compared the results of denoising with those obtained by conventional low-pass filtering. The low-pass filtering of the sinusoidal signal having a sharp discontinuity between the first and last sample values shows apparent errors related to Gibbs' phenomena. For the case of bump signal, the low-pass filtering induces maximum errors on peak values by removing some high-frequency components of signal itself. The wavelet transform technique, however, denoises these signals with much less adverse effects owing to its pertinent properties on locality of wavelet and easy discrimination of noise and signal in the wavelet domain. The field data of gravity tide are denoised by using soft threshold, which shrinked all the wavelet coefficients toward the origin, and the G-factor is determined by comparing the denoised data and theoretical data.

The needs of efficient electricity use and current measurement for electrical safety have been increased. Hence, the current sensor is used, especially non-contact current sensor which can measure the current without blocking the circuit using hall effect. However, the accurate measuring of the current sensor is inhibited due to the inflow of various noises in this current sensor. In this article, a stronger current sensor against the noise is proposed using low pass FIR filter to the existing current sensor. FIR filter was designed to block the range over the certain frequency at the output of the current sensor to eliminate the external noises, and so on. As a result, more accurate and close measurements were possible.

Data for travel information Provision are regularly aggregated to Provide travel time information in a reliable and convenient manner and to manage traffic data and information efficiently. In most of practices in Korea, the GPS based travel time data are mainly aggregated every 5 minutes As a result, some probes can't pass by a link within aggregation interval and thereby create uncompleted link passing data. But these data are mostly generated during the congested times and therefore a method that uses such uncompleted link passing data are required. This study estimated queue dissipation length, green time and cycle that use GPS spot speed and developed a link travel time estimation method using such uncompleted link passing data. It also presents method and the overall process of using such data to estimate link travel time in a more accurate manner. As a result, MAPE 1.98% and MAE 4.75 sec of link travel time accuracy improvement has been reported, which is not much different from the real link travel time. The method Proposed here would be an alternative to increase the amount of GPS probe data, especially in congested urban arterial case.

This study aimed to develop high-efficiency grouting techniques under deep-depth conditions by experimentally verifying the applicability of various injection materials. Particle size analysis and injection model experiments were conducted with Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and Micro Cement (MC) to evaluate the injection performance of each material. Using Barton's Cubic Network theory, the rock fracture spacing was calculated for domestic deep-depth standards, specifically below 40 meters underground. The analysis of particle size passability under selected conditions showed that MC could pass through the rock fracture gaps, while OPC could not. According to the results of the injection model experiments using experimental devices and area calculation software, OPC failed in injection due to its larger particle size, whereas MC was capable of injection even under high-viscosity conditions. Based on these findings, the study quantitatively and visually derived the applicability of grouting materials under deep-depth conditions, and high-viscosity MC material is expected to be effective for waterproofing enhancement in deep-depth rock fracture surfaces.

Recently, infrared (IR)-based depth sensors have proliferated as consumer electronics thanks to decreased price, which led to various applications including gesture recognition in television virtual studios. However, the depth sensors fail to capture depth information correctly under strong light conditions emitting infrared light which are very common in television studios. This paper analyzes the mechanism of such interference between the depth sensors relying on certain IR frequencies and infrared light emitting sources, and provides methods to get correct depth information by applying filters. Also, it describes experiment methods and presents the results of applying multiple combinations of filters with different cut-off frequencies. Finally, it proves that the interference due to IR can be filtered out using proposed filtering method practically by experiment.

In order to analyze moving object trajectories on road networks, its representation needs to be defined correctly. The most previous methods representing moving object trajectories on road networks defined moving object trajectories as a set of passed location and its time. It is required much time in processing analysis such as retrieval for moving object trajectories. In this paper, we focus on POI(Points of Interest) on road networks and propose methods simplifying moving object trajectories based on it. Our method simplifies moving object trajectories by reducing the number of POIs that moving object trajectories passed and maintains its form after moving object trajectories were simplified.
