Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry was applied to determine the palladium in $SnO_2$ employed for a gas sensor. Since $SnO_2$ is hardly decomposed into the solution, extensive studies were devoted to the development of decomposition methods which minimize the interference effect. The matrix effects on the background level and emission intensity of the element were studied and they were compensated by using matrix matched solution.

1997년에 발사된 해색센서 Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS)의 클로로필-a 자료는 많은 연구자들에게 전 지구 규모나 지역 규모에 대한 해양표층의 식물 플랑크톤 증식을 연구하는데 널리 활용되고 있다. 그런데 NASA로부터 제공되는 동해의 SeaWiFS Level-3 클로로필 자료에는 비정상적으로 높은 농도 값이 스펙클 형태로 분포한다. 본 연구에서는 1998년부터 2007까지 전구의 SeaWiFS 자료를 이용하여 SeaWiFS 클로로필-a 농도가 가지는 스펙클 오차의 분포 특성에 관해 조사하였다. 10년간의 월별 자료로부터 각 화소의 최댓값을 분석한 결과 정상적 농도 범위에서 벗어난 높은 농도 값이 스펙클 형태로 출현하였다. 이런 특성은 북반구에서 전구의 80% 이상 높게 나타났으며, 특히 $40-75^{\circ}N$의 중위도 영역에 집중분포하였다. 또한 스펙클들은 연안 가까이에서 매우 높게 나타난 반면 연안과 멀리 떨어진 외해에서도 $10-80mg/m^3$정도의 높은 값을 가지고 산발적으로 분포하였다. 스펙클들은 해마다 상당한 연 변동을 보였으며, 해역별로 크게 분포하는 시기가 다르게 나타났다. 북태평양에서는 봄철에 크게 나타난 반면 북대서양에서는 봄철과 가을철에 고르게 분포하였다. 2009년의 SeaWiFS 재처리 이후에 스펙클 오차 보정에 대한 처리가 이루어졌으며, 상당량 줄어든 분포를 보였으나 여전히 자료 안에서 매우 높은 농도로 분포하며 자료에 오차를 유발하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 전구에서 나타나는 스펙클 오차 분포 특성을 분석함으로 해색자료가 가지는 오차에 관한 문제점을 제기하였으며, 이를 통해 좀 더 신뢰도 있는 자료를 해양 연구에 사용해야함을 제시한다.

최근 센서 네트워크에 대한 연구가 활발한 가운데 센서 네트워크에서의 보안에 관한 중요성 또한 대두되고 있어, 센서 노드 및 센서 네트워크 상의 정보를 안전하게 관리하기 위한 암호 알고리즘의 구현이 필수적이다. 센서 노드 상에서 이용될 수 있는 암호로는 TinyECC 등의 공개키 암호와 AES와 같은 표준 블록 암호가 있으나, 속도 면에서 좀더 효율적일 것으로 기대되는 스트림 암호는 아직 표준화된 바가 없으며, 현재 eSTREAM 프로젝트에서 표준화가 진행 중에 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 센서 노드에 가장 적합한 스트림 암호를 찾기 위해서 eSTREAM의 2단계에 제출 되어있는 스트림 암호들 중 소프트웨어용 암호 7개를 구현하고 성능을 비교한다. 또한 참조 구현으로서 하드웨어용 스트림 암호 및 AES-CTR에 대한 실험 결과도 제시한다. 본 논문의 실험 결과에 따르면 위 스트림 암호 중 Dragon이 속도 측면에서 가장 효율적인 것으로 나타났으며, 초당 약 12.5KB의 암호화 성능을 보여 센서 노드에서 사용하기에 적합한 것으로 판단된다.

IoT 기기 및 드론의 사용자 인증 및 기기 인증을 위해 RSA, ECDSA 등의 여러 전자서명 기법이 기본적으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 양자 컴퓨터의 개발에 따라 Shor 알고리즘을 이용한 기존 암호 알고리즘의 공격이 가능해지고, 그에 따라 기존 암호 알고리즘의 보안성이 취약해지는 문제가 있다. 따라서 양자 내성 암호를 활용한 보안 체계의 필요성이 대두되고 있는 가운데, 본 논문에서는 양자 내성 암호인 다변수 이차식 기반의 전자서명 기법 중 Rainbow를 드론에 최적화하여 구현하기 위한 방안을 검토 및 분석하고자 한다. 그러나 기존의 Rainbow에서 사용하는 openssl 등의 오픈소스 암호 라이브러리는 PC에 맞춰 설계되었기 때문에 드론에서 난수를 생성할 때 적용이 어려운 점이 있다. 드론에는 각종 센서들이 내장되어 있으며, 센서 데이터들은 난수성을 보장하기에 용이하다. 따라서 드론의 각종 센서들을 시드로 활용하며, XOR 보정기를 통해 난수성을 해치지 않으면서 드론에서 난수를 생성할 수 있는 방안을 제안해 보고자 한다.

Since the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS)/Nimbus-7 was launched in 1978, a variety of studies have been conducted to retrieve ocean color variables from multi-satellites. Several algorithms and formulations have been suggested for estimating ocean color variables based on multi band data at different wavelengths. Chlorophyll-a (chl-a) concentration is one of the most important variables to understand low-level ecosystem in the ocean. To retrieve chl-a concentrations from the satellite observations, an appropriate algorithm depending on water properties is required for each satellite sensor. Most operational empirical algorithms in the global ocean have been developed based on the band-ratio approach, which has the disadvantage of being more adapted to the open ocean than to coastal areas. Alternative algorithms, including the semi-analytical approach, may complement the limits of band-ratio algorithms. As more sensors are planned by various space agencies to monitor the ocean surface, it is expected that continuous monitoring of oceanic ecosystems and environments should be conducted to contribute to the understanding of the oceanic biosphere and the impact of climate change. This study presents an overview of the past and present algorithms for the estimation of chl-a concentration based on multi-satellite data and also presents the prospects for ongoing and upcoming ocean color satellites.

Background: Gait analysis is an important measurement for health professionals to assess gait patterns related to functional limitations due to neurological or orthopedic conditions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability of the newly developed portable gait analysis system (PGAS). Design: Cross-sectional design. Test-retest study. Methods: The PGAS study was based on a wearable sensor, and measurement of gait kinematic parameters, such as gait velocity, cadence, step length and stride length, and joint angle (hip, knee, and ankle) in stance and swing phases. The results were compared with a motion capture system (MCS). Twenty healthy individuals were applied to the MCS and PGAS simultaneously during gait performance. Results: The test-retest reliability of the PGAS showed good repeatability in gait parameters with mean intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) ranging from 0.840 to 0.992, and joint angles in stance and swing phase from 0.907 to 0.988. The acceptable test-retest ICC was observed for the gait parameters (0.809 to 0.961), and joint angles (0.800 to 0.977). Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that the developed PGAS showed good grades of repeatability for gait kinematic data along with acceptable ICCs compared with the results from the MCS. The gait kinematic parameters in healthy subjects can be used as standard values for adopting this PGAS.

Machine learning is comprised of supervised learning, unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning as the type of data and processing mechanism. In this paper, as input and output are unclear and it is difficult to apply the concrete modeling mathematically, reinforcement learning method are applied for crawling robot in this paper. Especially, Q-Learning is the most effective learning technique in model free reinforcement learning. This paper presents a method to implement a crawling robot that is operated by finding the most optimal crawling method through trial and error in a dynamic environment using a Q-learning algorithm. The goal is to perform reinforcement learning to find the optimal two motor angle for the best performance, and finally to maintain the most mature and stable motion about EV3 Crawling robot. In this paper, for the production of the crawling robot, it was produced using Lego Mindstorms with two motors, an ultrasonic sensor, a brick and switches, and EV3 Classroom SW are used for this implementation. By repeating 3 times learning, total 60 data are acquired, and two motor angles vs. crawling distance graph are plotted for the more understanding. Applying the Q-learning reinforcement learning algorithm, it was confirmed that the crawling robot found the optimal motor angle and operated with trained learning, and learn to know the direction for the future research.

As rock bolts become one of the main support systems in tunnels and underground structures, the integrity of the rock bolts affects the safety of these types of structures. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of rock bolt integrity using Fourier and wavelet transforms of the guided ultrasonic waves. After five rock bolt specimens with various defect ratios are embedded into a large scale concrete block, guided waves are generated by a PZT (lead zirconate titanate) element and measured by an acoustic emission (AE) sensor. The captured signals are analyzed in the frequency domain using the Fourier transform, and in the time-frequency domain using the wavelet transform based on a Gabor wavelet. The spectrum obtained from the Fourier transform shows that a portion of high frequency contents increases with increase in the defect ratio. Peak values in the time-frequency domain represent the interval of travel time of each echo. The energy velocities of the guided waves increase with the defect ratio. This study shows that the spectrum ratio and the energy velocity may be indicators fur the evaluation of rock bolt integrity.

Rock bolts have been installed into rockmass as a main support system. In order to evaluate the rock bolt integrity using non-destructive technique, the transmission method of the guided ultrasonic wave has been successfully performed. For the transmission method, however, the source for the generation o# guided ultrasonic waves should be installed at the end of the steel bar during construction of the rock bolt in the field. The purpose of this study is to suggest a reflection method that the source and the receiver are installed on the head of the steel bar. The reflection method is compared with the transmission method using non-embedded rock bolts and rock bolts embedded in concrete block. In this experiment, the piezo disc element is used as the source and the AE sensor is used as the receiver. The wavelet transform is applied to determine the energy velocity. The experimental studies show that the reflection method produces almost identical value of the transmission method, and the energy velocity increases with the defect ratio. This study suggests that the reflection method of the guided ultrasonic wave may be a suitable method fur the rock bolt integrity evaluation in the field.

Tantalum pentoxide($Ta_{2}O_{5}$) thin films on p-type (100) silicon wafer were fabricated by RF reactive sputtering. Physical properties and structure of the specimens were examined by XRD and AES. From the C-V analysis, the dielectric constant of $Ta_{2}O_{5}$ films was in the range of 10-12 in the reactive gas atmosphere in which 10% of oxygen gas is mixed. The ratio of Ta : 0 was 1 : 2 and 1 : 2.49 by AES and RBS examination, respectively. The heat-treatment at $700^{\circ}C$ in $O_{2}$ ambient led to induce crystallization. When the heat-treatment temperature was $1000^{\circ}C$, the dielectric constant was 20.5 in $O_{2}$ ambient and 23 in $N_{2}$ ambient, respectively. The crystal structure of $Ta_{2}O_{5}$ film was pseudo hexagonal of ${\delta}-Ta_{2}O_{5}$. The flat band voltage shift(${\Delta}V_{FB}$) of the specimens and the leakage current density were decreased for higher oxygen mixing ratio. The maximum breakdown field was 2.4MV/cm at the oxygen mixing ratio of 10%. The $Ta_{2}O_{5}$ films will be applicable to hydrogen ion sensitive film and gate oxide material for memory device.
