In this paper, in order to improve efficiency performance of power amplifiers, a mode changeable autotransformer is proposed. Efficiency performance at the low-power mode can be improved by adopting the mode changeable autotransformer. A dual-mode autotransfomrer CMOS power amplifier using a standard 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS process is designed in this work. Number of turns in a primary winding is re-configurated according to mode change between the high-power mode and the low-power mode. Thus, the efficiency performance of the power amplifier at each mode is optimized. EM and total circuit simulation results verify that low-power mode power added efficiency(PAE) at 24dBm output power is improved from 10.4% to 26.1% using the proposed multi-mode operation.

Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) controls as a type of unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) is growing rapidly and its flight controller stick disposition is required standardization. We should standardize RPA drone flight control disposition because the flight pilot of RPA is hard to be trained so the flight controller stick differences impairs safety and wastes time and effort of flight controller industry. So this study researches the on-going standardization of RPA drone flight control disposition in Korea and foreign countries. Also this paper analyzes and researches of expert about RPA drone flight controller function and application of flight control mode. I accomplished expert research about standardization plan of unmanned flight control mode and confirm the necessity. Nowadays mode1 and 2 are mostly used in Korea so I carried out preference investigation for two modes. There were 4 preferences choices of RPA drone control mode necessity (importance) and recommendation of standardization modes. They answered that necessity of standardization is important considering pilot training, flight safety and positive development of drone industry. The result of standardization mode preference is that they prefer mode 2 (drone maker 86%, training facilities and research facilities 58%, government bureau 60%). Overall preference result shows that mode 1 24%, mode 1&2 16%, mode 2 60%. So they preferred mode 2 by 60%. The differences between two modes are the direction of throttle and pitch. Direction of throttle and pitch operate opposite way. They prefer mode 2 because mode 2 has similarities of manned flight control mode. Significance of this study is that it showed the necessity of standardization and flight control preference in a quantitative way. It will help drone standardization in related industries and development direction near future.

In this paper, we present a compact triple-mode resonator. The resonator itself can provide three transmission poles and one transmission zero. The resonance condition of each mode is analyzed theoretically, and the transmission zero is generated by open stub. Using this proposed resonator, a compact three pole bandpass filter for 2.4 GHz WLAN application with one transmission zero is designed and fabricated. The fabricated triple-mode filter shows 3 dB bandwidth of 15.8 % with the center frequency 2.4 GHz and less then 1.17 dB in 2.4~2.5 GHz passband. The size of fabricated triple-mode filter including the feed lines is 15.9 mm${\times}$9.7 mm and very compact compared with previous reported triple-mode filter.

We have gone into details about the velocity calibration of sinusoidal mode for Mossbauer spectrometer. Since sinusoidal Mossbauer spectrometer has a ${\gamma}$-ray source that oscillates at the end of loudspeaker with the natural frequency. Doppler velocity is accurate and stable. From the analyzing Mossbauer spectra of $Fe_3O_4$ and U $Fe_3O_4$ (unbalanced $Fe_3O_4$), we have shown the power of correct velocity for sinusoidal mode.

This paper describes a new algorithm for encoding spectral shape and envelope in the generic mode of G.718 super-wide band (SWB). In the G.718 SWB coder, generic mode coding and sinusoidal enhancement are used for the quantization of modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT)-based parameters in the high frequency band. In the generic mode, the high frequency band is divided into sub-bands and for every sub-band the most similar match with the selected similarity criteria is searched from the coded and envelope normalized wideband content. In order to improve the quantization scheme in high frequency region of speech/audio signals, the modified generic mode by the improvement of the generic mode in G.718 SWB is proposed. In the proposed generic mode, perceptual vector quantization of spectral envelopes and the resolution increase for spectral copy are used. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated in terms of objective quality. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm increases the quality of sounds significantly.

The frictional behavior of bare steel sheet highly depends on surface roughness. It was investigated that the change of surface roughness of bare steel sheet due to deformation for each forming mode. The flat type friction test was done to check the effect of surface roughness change on frictional characteristics of bare steel sheet. As increasing the deformation, the Ra value was increased at stretching forming mode and drawing forming mode, however the change of Pc showed different trends. The Pc was decreased as increasing stretch deformation but increased at compression deformation. At drawing forming mode, the friction coefficient was increased as deformation was increased after initial big drop with drawing oil. As deformation was increased, the friction coefficient was decreased with drawing oil at stretching forming mode. The results show that the deformation changes the surface roughness and frictional characteristics of steel sheet but the effect depends on the forming mode.

In this paper, a motor control algorithm for performing a mode change without an integrated starter generator (ISG) is suggested for the automatic transmission-based hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). Dynamic models of the HEV powertrains such as engine, motor, and mode clutch are derived for the transient state during the mode change, and the HEV performance simulator is developed. Using the HEV performance bench tester, the characteristics of the mode clutch torque are measured and the motor torque required for the mode clutch synchronization is determined. Based on the dynamic models and the mode clutch torque, a motor torque control algorithm is presented for mode changes, and motor control without the ISG is investigated and compared with the existing ISG control.

A fast intra skip detection algorithm based on the ratedistortion (RD) cost for an inter frame (P-slices) is proposed for H.264/AVC video encoding. In the H.264/AVC coding standard, a robust rate-distortion optimization technique is used to select the best coding mode and reference frame for each macroblock (MB). There are three types of intra predictions according to profiles. These are $16{\times}16$ and $4{\times}4$ intra predictions for luminance and an $8{\times}8$ intra prediction for chroma. For the high profile, an $8{\times}8$ intra prediction has been added for luminance. The $4{\times}4$ prediction mode has 9 prediction directions with 4 directions for $16{\times}16$ and $8{\times}8$ luma, and $8{\times}8$ chrominance. In addition to the inter mode search procedure, an intra mode search causes a significant increase in the complexity and computational load for an inter frame. To reduce the computational load of the intra mode search at the inter frame, the RD costs of the neighborhood MBs for the current MB are used and we propose an adaptive thresholding scheme for the intra skip extraction. We verified the performance of the proposed scheme through comparative analysis of experimental results using joint model reference software. The overall encoding time was reduced up to 32% for the IPPP sequence type and 35% for the IBBPBBP sequence type.

This paper presents a novel balanced filter design based on a metamaterial structure applicable to differential-mode excitation. The metamaterial structure is based on a unit-cell which under a differential-mode excitation behaves like composite right/left-handed(CRLH) metamaterial with filter characteristics. In contrast, the metamaterial unit-cell is below cut-off under a common-mode excitation. Experimental results are used to verify the proposed metamaterial's differential-mode characteristics. The metamaterial is fabricated with a balanced filter design resulting in an operating frequency range of 960~1000 MHz with a insertion loss of 4.1 dB.

The wide viewing angle and fast response time characteristics of negative dielectric anisotropy nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using a novel vertical-alignment (VA) - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode on a homeotropic alignment layer were investigated. Good voltage-transmittance curves and low driving voltage using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode without a negative compensation film were obtained. The iso-viewing angle characteristics of NLC using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode without a negative compensation film can be achieved. The fast response time of 24.4 ms in NLC was successfully measured. The iso-viewing angle, fast response time, and low driving voltage characteristics using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode can be achieved.
