In the underwater acoustic communication channels, a multipath reflection becomes the cause of obstacle. To solve this problem, a rake receiver has been required for which one could take the time diversity. However, there is a concern about using incorrect path to recover signals with a high weighting value as underwater acoustic communication channels have severe time-variant property. In order to prevent these problem, a rake receiver is proposed which is based on BER(bit error rate) train sequence duration. The performance is evaluated through lake trials; there are three methods that are a proposed rake receiver, a conventional rake receiver, and a non-rake receiver. As a result, the number of bit errors in the proposed rake receiver, that of bit errors in the conventional rake receiver, and that of bit errors in the non-rake receiver is 8, 45, and 72, respectively.

유기물오염은 호수와 하천에서 가장 흔히 나타나는 오염의 형태이다. 개발도상국에서는 하수처리시설이나 생활용수처리시설에서 유기물이 처리되지 않아 수중의 유기물함량이 증가하여 피해가 나타난다. 물환경보전법에 따라 유기물질을 측정하는 지표에는 BOD, COD, TOC가 있다. 그 중 BOD, COD 측정은 절차가 복잡하고 오래 걸리며, 생물분해가 불가능하거나 유독물질이 존재하는 유기물질인 경우에는 낮은 결과 또는 측정이 불가능하다. 이러한 이유로 환경부에서는 TOC중심관리로 전환되고 있다. 대부분의 수질항목 측정의 경우 현장시료를 채취하여 실험실에서 분석하는 수분석을 이용한다. 하지만 수분석의 경우 인력이 많이 투입되고 분석수가 한정적이며, 정교한 과학 장치를 갖춘 전문 실험실을 필요로 한다. 반면에 TOC는 짧은 시간 내에 측정이 가능하고, 안정적인 산화로 유기물질 총량을 정확하게 측정이 가능하다. 또한 위해성 물질을 발생시키지 않는 친환경적 방법이라 환경오염 감시에 많이 활용된다. 본 연구에서 분광측정기 중 하나인 S-CAN을 통해 하천의 TOC분석을 진행하였다. 대상지는 안동에 위치한 하천실험센터와 금호강 진천천으로 S-CAN측정과 채취한 시료의 수분석 결과를 비교하였다. 이를 통해 TOC측정 및 기기에 대한 정확도분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 S-CAN을 활용한 TOC중심의 수질모니터링하여 수질의 특성을 탐구하고, TOC기초연구를 통한 유기물오염도 지표로서 해석할 수 있다. 수분석 자료를 활용한 정확도 비교를 통해 하천 TOC센서 측정 적용에 대한 기초자료 제공과 측정기기의 현장적용성을 판단 할 수 있다. TOC측정 및 분석을 통해 유기물질량을 실시간으로 정확하게 측정하게 되면 수질관리 효율성이 높아지고, 하천에 유입되는 유기물질량과 농도를 정확하게 파악하여 실효성 있는 정책 수립 및 효율적인 수질관리를 할 수 있다.

In this paper, the performance of joint equalizer and phase-locked loop in underwater communications is analyzed. In the channel where the Doppler frequency exists, it is difficult to recover the transmitted data only by the equalizer. To compensate for the Doppler frequency, the phase-locked loop is used. For removing the time-varying multipath and the Doppler frequency simultaneously, the equalizer and the phase-locked loop operate jointly. Also, if the initial Doppler frequency error obtained by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is compensated, the convergence speed of the joint equalizer and phase-locked loop can be improved. To verify the performance, lake and sea experiments were conducted. As a result, it was showed that the joint equalizer and phase-locked loop converges sufficiently in the preamble (known data) period regardless of whether the Doppler frequency is compensated or not. And, the bit error in random data period is not occurred. However, we can increase the convergence speed of the equalizer more than twice through the compensation of Doppler frequency.

한국건설기술연구원 하천실험센터는 이수, 치수, 환경을 조화시키는 하천기술을 개발하기 위하여 2009년 11월 경상북도 안동시 남후면 하아리 낙동강변에 준공되었으며 초당 8톤의 인공홍수발생이 가능한 3개의 실험수로와 유 출입수조, 다목적호수실험장, 저류지 및 연구동으로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구는 하천실험센터의 식생과 3가지 유형(본류형, 자연제방지류형, 인공제방지류형)의 인근 하천식생을 비교분석하여 하천실험센터의 현재 식생환경을 파악하고 차후 연구의 기초선 자료로 활용하기 위하여 수행되었다. 2011년 7월부터 9월 사이에 하천실험센터(급경사수로, 직선수로, 사행수로, 유출수조, 자연식생보존구간), 낙동강 본류, 상리천, 하아천에서 대표성을 갖는 장소 각각 1개 지소를 선정하여 식물상조사 및 식생단면조사를 진행하였으며 조사된 자료를 바탕으로 습생도, 교란도, 외래종율, 종다양성지수를 산출하였다. 또한 군집분석(Cluster Analysis)을 통하여 현재 하천실험센터의 식생환경이 타 조사지의 하천식생과 비교하여 어떤 유사성을 보이는지 확인하였다. 전체조사구간에서 총 108종류의 식물이 출현하였다. 3개의 실험수로는 수 습생식물의 종수가 일반하천의 수 습생식물의 종수보다 적었으며 반면에 육상식물의 종수는 더 많게 조사되었다. 또한 1 2년 식물의 경우 실험수로에서 더 많이 출현하였고 다년생초본과 목본은 소수였다. 하천실험센터의 자연식생보존구간의 경우 총 식물 종수 및 수 습생식물의 종수가 최대값을 나타내었고 식물상의 출현유무를 바탕으로 군집분석을 수행한 결과, 하천실험센터의 실험수로는 낙동강 본류, 상리천, 하아천과 유사도가 낮게 구분되었으며 자연식생보존구간은 낙동강 본류 및 상리천과 유사도가 높게 분류되었다. 하천실험센터의 실험수로는 준공당시 기존의 식생이 모두 제거된 상태에서 인위적으로 조성되었기 때문에 현재까지는 하천식생의 특징이 두드러지지 않으며 육상식생에 가까운 식생환경을 나타내고 있다. 자연식생보존구역의 경우 다양한 버드나무류와 초본류가 정착되어 있으며 타 대상지에 비하여 가장 뛰어난 생태성을 가지고 있다. 하천실험센터는 하천실험을 위한 장소이나 그 자체로 생태가치가 높으며 차후 생태연구, 홍보, 교육활동에 유용하게 활용할 수 있는 잠재력을 내포하고 있다.

Grazing rate (GR) and feces production (FP) of freshwater snail Cipangopaludina chinensis malleata on two hibernal diatom communities were examined in a laboratory. Snail with the similar size (4.2$\sim$5.8 cm) were collected from the Gunsan and Okgu district (Jeonbuk), transferred to the artificial management system in laboratory, and starved for 3 day before the experiment. The feeding experiments were conducted at various conditions such as passage of time (0, 1, 4 and 7 hr), snail density (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 ind. $L^{-1}$) and kinds of prey (cold lake and stream water). One prey used in this study is the water of Lake Ilgam, the other is that of Han river. Lake Ilgam water was dominated by Synedra ulna (69.1%) and Scenedesmus sp. (6.6%), while Han river was by Asterionella formosa (69.4%) and Diatoma vulgare (27.7%). With the increment of snail density and time, the Chl-a concentration of two experimental waters were clearly decreased. Chl-a of Han river rapidly was decreased after 1 hour of snail treatment, while that of Ilgam lake was decreased after 4 hour. On the passage of time, a highest GR (1.94 L $g^{-1}\;h^{-1}$) showed at 1 hr, and then, decreased gradually to 0.04 L $g^{-1}\;h^{-1}$ by 7 hr. The highest FP (0.11 mg $L^{-1}$) showed at 7 hr. These results indicate that native snail Cipangopaludina chinensis malleata may be applied as a potential bio-filter to control diatom blooms in the cold lake and stream.

Changes in total nitrogen (T.N.) and total phosphate (T.P.) content in environmental waste water upon the reaction of biological purifying reagents were measured and the reaction rate was evaluated. The purification capacity of two biological purifying reagents composed of vegetable Lactobacillus fermentum (V.L.F.), Saccharomyces cerevisiae(S.C), and Bacillus subtilis(B.S.) were evaluated and compared with that of commercial water purification system operating by local government. After 18days of reaction, the mixture of V.L.F. and S.C. showed dramatic decrease of T.N.(36.21% of the initial value). The mixture of V.L.F., S.C., and B.S. showed faster reaction rate to decrease T.P. compared with that of the mixture of V.L.F. and S.C. The reaction constant of mixture of V.L.F. and S.C. was estimated to be 0.178 $day^{-1}$ by the curve fitting of the data of changes in T.N. during the reaction.

The effects of the ecdysteroid agonist tebufenozide on the larvae of Chironomus flaviplumus and Chironomus riparius were tested in the laboratory. Employing a static exposure setup, chironomids were subjected to various tebufenozide concentrations. In the most treatments it reach-ed a statistically significant difference from the control condition. As the concentration of tebufenozide was increased, a relatively larger proportion of the observed mortality was associated with the metamorphosis and molting process. The larval mortality of C. riparius was high in C. flaviplumus during over 30 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$ treatments. In terms of development, the effects of tebufenozide were delayed growth stage in relatively lower concentration such as 10 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$ tebufenozide treatments. The rates of succeed adult through the molting process were various in treated concentrations or/and the species.

In this paper, we propose a frame synchronization algorithm for robust to the combined effects of large Doppler fluctuations and extended, time-varying multipath in the underwater acoustic communication. From the algorithm, we can recover a high timing error which is occurred from an acoustic propagation delay and uncertainty of oscillator between transmitter and receiver. In order to verify the performance of the synchronization algorithm, the lake trial results are used. The lake experiments are performed in a Gyeongcheonho located in Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. We can see that the start position of frame is adjusted after the frame synchronization while the receiver moving.

This paper presents constructing transmitter and receiver by using a direct sequence spread spectrum techniques to DPSK (Differential Phase-Shift Keying) scheme in underwater acoustic communication. Since DPSK signal can be demodulated if the receiver knows only the phase difference between the adjacent bits, DPSK receiver structure has the advantage of being simplified. In the conventional receiver, two adjacent symbols of transmitted signal before despread are passed to the transition correlator that detects data by comparing maximum correlation outputs. At this time, the error for maximum value of the correlator output may increase because of low SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) or high Doppler shift frequency according to the underwater channel. In this paper, we propose a method for accurate detection result using the width as well as the magnitude among outputs produced by the correlator. The performances of the proposed method was evaluated by simulation and lake trial data.
