In this study, an acoustic full-waveform inversion using Adam optimizer was proposed. The steepest descent method, which is commonly used for the optimization of seismic waveform inversion, is fast and easy to apply, but the inverse problem does not converge correctly. Various optimization methods suggested as alternative solutions require large calculation time though they were much more accurate than the steepest descent method. The Adam optimizer is widely used in deep learning for the optimization of learning model. It is considered as one of the most effective optimization method for diverse models. Thus, we proposed seismic full-waveform inversion algorithm using the Adam optimizer for fast and accurate convergence. To prove the performance of the suggested inversion algorithm, we compared the updated P-wave velocity model obtained using the Adam optimizer with the inversion results from the steepest descent method. As a result, we confirmed that the proposed algorithm can provide fast error convergence and precise inversion results.

본 연구에서는 다용도 구동 모사 장치인 VDS(versatile driving simulator)를 이용하여 기존에 상용되고 있는 AC-PDP의 파형 분석 및 구동 파형 최적화를 위한 기초 연구 결과들을 소개한다. 일반적으로 PDP, FED, LCD 등의 평판 표시장치들은 패널 자체의 특성 뿐만 아니라 패널에 인가되는 전압 파형과 구동 방법에 따라 효율 및 화질을 포함한 전체 성능이 크게 좌우된다. 따라서 각 표시장치에 가장 적합한 파형과 구동법을 연구하는 것은 매우 중요한 과제이다. 특히 PDP의 경우 구동 파형이 효율과 화질에 미치는 영향은 절대적이라 해도 과언이 아니다. 그러나 이들 평판 표시장치를 구동하는 상용회로들은 스위칭 회로를 이용한 것이 대부분으로 한 개의 파형 당 한 부분의 회로가 담당하는 형태로 되어 있다. 즉 자유도가 매우 제한되어 있다. 따라서 파형 변화에 따른, 그리고 구동법의 변화에 따른 연구를 하기 위해서는 많은 인력과 시간이 소요된다는 어려움이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해소하기 위하여 새로운 개념의 구동모사 장치 VDS(versatile driving simulator)를 개발하였다. VDS 시스템은 디지털 기술과 아날로그 기술을 통합하여 제작된 구동 모사장치로써 평판 표시 장치에 인가되는 실제 파형 및 구동법을 손쉽게 변화시킬 수 있으며 이의 결과를 빠르게 확인할 수 있도록 설계되었다.

Corrugated bulkheads have many advantages compared to stiffened bulkheads, and they have thus been used for the cargo tank bulkheads of commercial vessels, such as bulk carriers, product oil carriers, and chemical tankers. Various studies have been carried out to find the optimum corrugation shape for bulk carriers, but optimum design studies for chemical tankers with bulkheads made of high-priced materials are scarce. The purpose of this study is to develop a minimum weight design method for horizontal corrugated bulkheads for a chemical tanker. An evolution strategy (ES) that searches for a reliable global optimum point was applied as an optimization technique, and the structural safety of the optimum design was verified through structural analysis using the finite element method (FEM). The results were compared with those of an existing ship, which showed a weight reduction of about 14% with equivalent structural strength.

This paper proposes full waveform inversion (FWI) for estimating the physical properties of a layered half-space. An FWI solution is obtained using a genetic algorithm (GA), which is a well-known global optimization approach. The dynamic responses of a layered half-space subjected to a harmonic vertical disk load are measured and compared with those calculated using the estimated physical properties. The responses are calculated using the thin-layer method, which is accurate and efficient for layered media. Subsequently, a numerical model is constructed for a layered half-space using mid-point integrated finite elements and perfectly matched discrete layers. An objective function of the global optimization problem is defined as the L2-norm of the difference between the observed and estimated responses. A GA is used to minimize the objective function and obtain a solution for the FWI. The accuracy of the proposed approach is applied to various problems involving layered half-spaces. The results verify that the proposed FWI based on a GA is suitable for estimating the material properties of a layered half-space, even when the measured responses include measurement noise.

We propose new pulse shapes for FCC-compliant ultra-wideband (UWB) radios. The projections onto convex sets (POCS) technique is used to optimize temporal and spectral shapes of UWB pulses under the constraints of all of the desired UWB signal properties: efficient spectral utilization under the FCC spectral mask, time-limitedness, and good autocorrelation. Simulation results show that for all values of the pulse duration, the new pulse shapes not only meet the FCC spectral mask most efficiently, but also have nearly the same autocorrelation functions. It is also observed that our truncated (i.e., strictly time-limited) pulse shapes outperform the truncated Gaussian monocycle in the BER performance of binary TH-PPM systems for the same pulse durations. The POCS technique provides an effective method for designing UWB pulse shapes in terms of its inherent design flexibility and joint optimization capability.

The compressive sensing model for range-Doppler estimation can be expressed as an under-determined linear system y = Ax. To find the solution of the linear system with the compressive sensing method, matrix A should be sufficiently incoherent and x to be sparse. In this paper, we propose a transmission waveform design method that maintains the bandwidth required by the sonar system while lowering the mutual coherence of the matrix A so that the matrix A is incoherent. The proposed method combines two methods of optimizing the sensing matrix with the alternating projection and suppressing unwanted frequency bands using the DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) matrix. We compare range-Doppler estimation performance of existing waveform LFM(Linear Frequency Modulated) and designed waveform using the matched filter and the compressive sensing method. Simulation shows that the designed transmission waveform has better detection performance than the existing waveform LFM.

This paper presents a time-domain Gauss-Newton full-waveform inversion method for the material profile reconstruction in heterogeneous semi-infinite solid media. To implement the inverse problem in a finite computational domain, perfectly-matchedlayers( PMLs) are introduced as wave-absorbing boundaries within which the domain's wave velocity profile is to be reconstructed. The inverse problem is formulated in a partial-differential-equations(PDE)-constrained optimization framework, where a least-squares misfit between measured and calculated surface responses is minimized under the constraint of PML-endowed wave equations. A Gauss-Newton-Krylov optimization algorithm is utilized to iteratively update the unknown wave velocity profile with the aid of a specialized regularization scheme. Through a series of one-dimensional examples, the solution of the Gauss-Newton inversion was close enough to the target profile, and showed superior convergence behavior with reduced wall-clock time of implementation compared to a conventional inversion using Fletcher-Reeves optimization algorithm.

It is important to design and evaluate the chip waveform with the minimum MAI under the bandwidth constraint in the interference-limited DS-CDMA system. In this paper, by approximation we present the analytical chip waveforms that are proposed and optimized in the reference. Their performances are compared with performances of three conventional chip waveforms: rectangular, half-sine and raised-cosine. Waveform 1 of the proposed chip waveform outperforms the conventional ones. BER and throughput performance are evaluated in the Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading channels when DPSK modulation is used. When the required BER is 10$\^$-3/ in two fading channels, the capacity of the waveform 1 is improved about 20 % rather than raised-cosine one. When the offered traffic is 30 and the number of packet per bit(N$\sub$d/) is 14, maximum throughput of the waveform 1 is better than raised-cosine chip waveform about 18 % in two fading channels.

In this paper we introduce a method to optimize panel parameters and drive signals in a matrix-adressed bistable twsited-nematic (BTN) liquid crystal display (LCD) panel. We measured the effect of data pulses on optical switching characteristics in a BTN LC cell to model the effect theoretically. We introduce a weighting function to model the effect of data pulses on the switching energy as a function of time. Once the weighting function is known, we can estimate the maximum number of lines for multiplexing operation at a given frame rate by calculating the minimum data pulse width. By characterizing a unit cell as we change panel parameters (for example, d/p ratio), we can optimize parameters for high-speed operation. We found that our theoretical predictions agree very well with experimental results.

In this paper, the microwave characteristics of traveling-wave electroabsorption coplanar waveguide modulator have been analyzed and optimized precisely by using the 3-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD). Microwave characteristics are affected by the thickness of intrinsic layer, the width of meas, and the distance between signal electrode and ground electrode on traveling-wave type structure. In case that intrinsic layers are composed of InAsP/InGaP (1.3Q), the optimized distance between signal electrode and ground electrode, the optimized intrinsic region thickness and the width of waveguide are founded to be $3{\mu}m,\;039{\mu}m\;and\;2{\mu}m$, respectively, to minimize microwave loss and to obtain velocity and impedance matched structure. By using the FDTD, we could design the traveling-wave electroabsorption modulator more precisely.
