  • In this paper, a beam design method is presented for the planar array with unequal transducer sensitivities. Basically the proposed method consists of two steps. At first, the optimum weightings are designed with the assumption that all array elements have an uniform sensitivity. Next, the compesnated weightings for the unequal transducer sensitivities can reversely be determined from an inverse problem utilizing the design beam pattern evaluated by the predetermined optimal weightings. A numerical example is inculded to illustrate the proposed method.

  • Since preclinical positron emission tomography imaging is performed on small animals that are very small compared to the human body, a detector with excellent spatial resolution is required. For this purpose, a system was constructed using a detector using small scintillation pixels. Since the size of the currently developed and used photosensors is limited, excellent spatial resolution can be obtained when the minimum scintillation pixel and maximum array are used. In this study, the size of the photosensor is fixed and various scintillation pixel arrays are configured to match the size of the scintillation pixels, so that no overlap occurs in the flood image and the maximum scintillation pixel array in which all scintillation pixels are distinguished. For this purpose, DETECT2000, which can simulate a detector module composed of a scintillator and an photosensor, was used. A photosensor consisting of a 4 × 4 array of 3 mm × 3 mm pixels was used, and the scintillation pixel array was configured from 8 × 8 to 13 × 13, and simulations were performed. A flood image was constructed using the data obtained from the photosensor pixel, and the maximum scintillation pixel array that does not overlap the image was found through the flood image and the profile. As a result, the size of the scintillation pixel array in which all scintillation pixels are imaged without overlapping each other in the flood image was 11 × 11.

  • In this study, a new design method is developed to optimize the structure of an underwater sparse array sensor. The purpose of this research is to design the structure of a sparse array that has the performance equivalent to a fully sampled array. The directional factor of a sparse planar array is derived as a function of the structural parameters of the array. With the derived equation, the structure of the sparse array sensor is designed to have the performance equivalent to that of the fully array sensor through structural optimization of the number and location of transmitting and receiving elements in the array. The designed sparse array sensor shows beam patterns very close to those of the fully array sensor in terms of PSLL (Peak Side Lobe Level) and MLBW (Main Lobe Beam Width), which confirms the effectiveness of the present optimal design method. Further, the validity of the analytic beam patterns is verified by comparing them with those from the FEA (Finite Element Analysis) of the optimized sparse array structure.

  • This paper described on the availability fo the underwater telemetering by the ulterasonic multi-beam system made as a trial to expand detectable range of the fish school. The ultrasonic multi-beam system consisted of four transducers which reconstructed with the existing net recorder. The experiment for the telemetering carried out in the set net fishing ground. The results obtained are summerized as follows: 1. The detectable distance of a target by the linear arrangement of four transducers increased according to the sea depth and the interval between transducers. 2. When the fish school in the entrance of set net was measured by linear arrangement of transducers it was entered in depth of 2.5~3.5m at near position of leader, and in depth of 3.5~4.5m at near position of door net. 3. The deviations of error between the actual position and the position by transducer in case of the target depth 1m, 1.5m, 2m were 5.9~27.1cm, 3.2~28.9cm, 3.5~25.8cm respectively, and 68.3% probability radius of them were 14.6cm, 17.7cm, 17.0cm respectively. 4. When the fish school in the fish court of set net was measured by plane arrangement of transducer it was entered toward the opposite direction of tide current. 5. The available distance of telemetering by the multi-beam transducer was 1.8km and the telemetering was possible to control everywhere in case of sea depth more than three meters.

  • In order to maximize the matching ratio between the scintillation pixel and the photosensor of the PET detector using a small number of photosensor, various arrays of scintillation pixels and four photosensors were used. The array of scintillation pixels consisted of six cases from 6 × 6 to 11 × 11. The distance between the photosensors was applied equally to all scintillation pixels, and the arrangement was expanded by reducing the size of scintillation pixel. DETECT2000 capable of light simulation was used to acquire flood images of the designed PET detectors. At the center of each scintillation pixel array, light generated through the interaction between extinction radiation and scintillation pixels was generated, and the light was detected through for four photosensors, and then a flood image was reconstructed. Through the reconstructed flood image, we found the largest arrangement in which all the scintillation pixels can be distinguished. As a result, it was possible to distinguish all the scintillation pixels in the flood image of 8 × 8 scintillation pixel array, and from the 9 × 9 scintillation pixel flood image, the two edge scintillation pixels overlapped and appeared in the image. At this time, the matching ratio between the scintillation pixel and the photosensor was 16:1. When a PET system is constructed using this detector, the number of photosensors used is reduced and the cost of the oveall system is expected to be reduced through the simplification of the signal processing circuit.

  • Planar array of acoustic transducer is normally used in a sonar system. Acoustic radiation makes beam pattern in underwater uses. The main source of the beam pattern is due to the transducer array. Therefore, estimation of the acoustic radiated power is necessary to predict the performance and efficiency of the transducer. As an example of the acoustic radiation power, nine acoustic transducers mounted to a rigid infinite baffle are considered in a theoretical model. Each piston's acoustic radiation consists of self- and mutual-radiation impedances. Total radiation impedances and acoustic radiation power of the transducers are extracted using on the theory of an equivalent electric circuit. The theoretical results reveal that acoustic radiation power of the transducer depends on the mutual coupling effects.

  • 평면 배열에서 원하는 빔패턴을 얻고자 할 때 각각의 소자들의 자체 방사특성 에 의해 다른 소자가 영향을 받게된다. 보통 이러한 영향은 빔패턴의 변화를 가져올 뿐만 아니라 소자의 성능을 저하시키게 된다. 이러한 간섭을 줄이기 위해서 배열 형태를 바꾸는 등의 구조적인 개선은 많이 시도되어 왔다 그러나 이러한 개선을 통하여 영향을 줄일 수는 있으나 보다 더 정확하게 원하는 사양의 빔을 설계하기 위해서는 최적화 기법을 통하여 이러한 영향을 보상해 주어 야 한다. 본 논문에서는 빔을 설계할 때 상호 간섭 영향을 포함시킨 빔설계 알고리듬을 소개한다. 이 알고리듬은 선형 최소자승법의 해를 기반으로 최적화를 수행하고 상호 간섭의 영향은 coupling coefficients matrix를 도입하였다. 이러한 방법으로 빔을 설계하게 되면 소자의 위치 등을 변화시키지 않으면서 원하는 사양의 빔을 설계 할 수 있게 된다.

  • In this paper, a nonlinear optimal design technique is presented to find an optimal beam pattern. With this technique, the beam width is minimized with respect to a given maximum allowable side-lobe level considering the self- and mutual radiation impedances of vibrators. The proposed method is applied to design a planar array consisting 37 vibrators which are symmetric in X, Y and $45^{circ}$ axes. The results show that significantly low side-lobe level maintaining a main beam width can be obtained using this method.

  • The 3D Hough transformation is the one of the most powerful and popular algorithm for extracting plane parameters from LiDAR data. However, there are some problems when extracting building roof plane using 3D Hough transformation. This paper explains possible problems and solution for extracting roof plane. The algorithm defines peak plane, exact plane, and LESS plane for extracting accurate plane parameters in the accumulator of the 3D Hough transformation. The peak plane is the plane which is represented by peak in the accumulator. The exact plane is the plane which is represented by the accumulator cell which is closest to the actual plane. The LESS plane can be calculated from all LiDAR points in the exact plane by using least-square adjustment. Test results show that proposed algorithm can extracts building roof plane very accurately.
