In this paper, a new image watermarking algorithm is proposed which can hide specific information of an ID card's owner in photo image for preventing ID's photo forgery. Proposed algorithm uses the image segmentation and the correlation peak position modulation of spread spectrum. The watermark embedded in photo ensures not only robustness against printing and scanning but also sufficient information capacity hiding unique number such as social security numbers in small-sized photo. Another advantage of proposed method is extracting accurate information with error tolerance within some rotation range by using $2^h{\times}2^w$ unit sample space not instead $1{\times}1$ pixels for insertion and extraction of information. 40 bits information can be embedded and extracted at $256{\times}256$ sized ID photo with BER value of 0 % when the test condition is 300dpi scanner and photo printer with 22 photos. In conclusion, proposed algorithm shows the robustness for noise and rotational errors occured during printing and scanning.

This paper presents and compares several techniques that detect the symbol rate of unknown received signal. Symbol rate is detected from the power spectral density of the circuits such as the delay and multiplier circuit, the square law circuit, and analytic signal, etc. As a result of discrete Fourier transform of the output signals of these circuits, a lot of spectral lines and some peaks appear in frequency domain and the position of first peak is corresponding to the symbol rate. If a spectral line on the frequency that is not located in symbol rate is larger than the first peak, the symbol rate is erroneously detected. Thus, the ratio between the value of first peak and the highest side spectral line is used for the measure of the performance of symbol rate detector. For the MPSK modulation, the analytic signal method shows better performance than the delay and multiplier and square law circuits when the received signal power is lager than -20dB. It is also noted that the delay and multiplier circuit is not able to detect the symbol rate for the QAM modulation.

파장 분할 방식의 광섬유 격자 센서의 멀티플렉싱 능력을 향상시키기 위하여 이중 격자의 파장 간격 변조로 구분되는 다중 광섬유 격자 센서 시스템을 제안하였으며, 서로 다른 파장 간격을 가지는 센서의 상태와 위치를 정확히 구별할 수 있는 방법을 연구하고 씨뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다. 또한 변형력 하에서 광섬유격자 센서들간의 스펙트럼 중첩으로 불명확한 브래그 피크를 최급 강하법(steepest descent method) 알고리즘을 사용하여 약 3 pm이내의 표준편차로 결정할 수 있었다.

We demonstrate a distributed fiber sensor system based on spatially-selective Brillouin scattering, using a single laser diode as a light source whose optical frequency is directly modulated by the injection current. The pump and the counter-propagating probe lights, which are sinusoidally frequency-modulated, are superposed in the fiber so that stimulated Brillouin scattering takes places only at a specific location along the fiber. Brillouin gain peak position is controlled by varying the modulation frequency. Distributions of Brillouin shift frequency are measured for the case of concatenated optical fibers of two different kinds and also for the case of temperature distribution. The temperature coefficient of the Brillouin shift frequency is measured to be $1.33MHz/^{\circ}C$.
