In this paper, we propose a vision system using a field programmable gate array(FPGA) and a smart vision chip. The output of the vision chip is varied by illumination conditions. This chip is suitable as a surveillance system in a dynamic environment. However, because the output swing of a smart vision chip is too small to definitely confirm the warning signal with the FPGA, a modification was needed for a reliable signal. The proposed system is based on a transmission control protocol/internet protocol(TCP/IP) that enables monitoring from a remote place. The warning signal indicates that some objects are too near.

This paper describes the design, fabrication and experiments of surface-micromachined aluminum micromirror array with hidden pin-joints. Instead of the conventional elastic spring components as connection between mirror plate and supporting structure, we used pin-joint composed of pin and staples to support the mirror plate. The placement of pin-joint under the mirror plate makes large active surface area possible. These flexureless micromirrors are driven by electrostatic force. As the mirror plate has discrete deflection angles, the device can be ap;lied to adaptive optics and digitally-operating optical applications. Four-level metal structural layers and semi-cured photoresist sacrificial layers were used in the fabrication process and sacrificial layers were removed by oxygen plasma ashing. Static characteristics of fabricated samples were measured and compared with modeling results.

We designed and fabricated a vision chip for edge detection with a $160{\times}120$ pixel array by using 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The designed vision chip is based on a retinal structure with a resistive network to improve the speed of operation. To improve the quality of final edge images, we applied a saturating resistive circuit to the resistive network. The light-adaptation mechanism of the edge detection circuit was quantitatively analyzed using a simple model of the saturating resistive element. To verify improvement, we compared the simulation results of the proposed circuit to the results of previous circuits.

This paper presents an effective robust predictive control scheme for the active power filter (APF) using a smith-predictor based current regulator, which show superior features when compared to proportional-integral (PI) controllers in terms of an enhanced closed-loop bandwidth and an improved current tracking accuracy. A moving average filter (MAF) is implemented using a field programmable gate array (FPGA) for signal pre-processing to eliminate the switching ripple contamination. An adaptive linear neural network (ADALINE) is used for individual harmonic estimation to achieve selective compensation purpose. The effectiveness and validity of the devised control algorithm are confirmed by extensive simulation and experimental results.

본 논문에서는 도심지 이동 통신에서 SINR 성능을 향상시키기 위해 기존의 배열 안테나에 최소 평균 자승(LMS) 알고리즘을 적용하여 실제 배열 출력과 이상적 출력간의 최소 평균 오차(MSE)를 최소화하고 안테나의 배열로부터 가중치를 결합한 신호에 의해 방향성을 적절히 제어하여 간섭신호를 효과적으로 제거한다. 배열 출력 신호 대 간섭에 추가된 잡음비(SINR) 성능 분석에 적합한 삼차원적 분석을 사용하여 적응 배열 원소를 사용한 성능과 모노폴 안테나 원소에서 배열의 성능을 비교한다. 또한, SINR 패턴 각 비(PAR)를 사용하여 적응 배열 원소 방위, 내부 원소간의 간격들 그리고 입사 신호 방향들과 같은 다른 배열 매개 변수들에서 배열 성능을 계산하고 SINR 패턴의 양적 평가를 한다. 결과로서, 적응 배열 원소가 가정된 신호 환경에 있어 4상파형(quarterwave) 모노폴(monopole) 안테나 배열보다 더 바람직하다.

본 논문은 가변 조정계수를 이용한 적응형 MPPT 제어 기법을 제안한다. MPPT 제어 루프가 소신호 모델링을 통해 구성되며, PV array 의 동작점에 상관없이 MPPT 제어의 성능을 일정하게 유지하기 위한 가변 조정계수가 결정된다. 가변 조정계수는 오차에 대한 근사화된 곡선맞춤 다항식을 통해 결정되며, 이를 통해 사용자가 원하는 MPPT 의 동특성과 안정성을 전 MPPT 영역에 걸쳐 확보할 수 있다. 제안된 MPPT 기법의 타당성은 3KW 급 시스템에 대한 실험을 통해 검증한다.

Several studies made for wireless mesh networks aim to optimize the capacity for wireless networks. Aside from protocol improvements, researches were also done on the physical layer particularly on modulation techniques and antenna efficiency schemes. This paper is concerned with the capacity improvements derived from using spatial diversity with smart adaptive array antennas. The use of spatial diversity, which has been widely proposed for use in cellular networks in order to lessen frequency re-use, can be used in mesh networks both to minimize co-channel interference (CCI) and enable multiple transmissions. This paper aims to study the capacity region and bounds in using smart antennas for single-channel multi-radio systems in relation to the number of spatial diversity or sectors as defined by the beam angle $\beta$.

시스톨릭 어레이는 DNN training 등 인공지능 연산의 대부분을 차지하는 행렬 곱셈을 수행하기 위한 하드웨어 구조로 많이 사용되지만, sparsity 가 높은 행렬을 연산할 때 불필요한 동작으로 인해 효율성이 크게 떨어진다. 본 논문에서 제안된 유동적 시스톨릭 어레이는 matrix condensing, weight switching, 그리고 direct output path 의 방법과 구조를 통해 sparsity 가 높은 행렬 곱셈의 수행 사이클을 줄일 수 있다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존 시스톨릭 어레이와 유동적 시스톨릭 어레이의 성능을 비교하였으며 8×8, 16×16, 32×32 의 크기를 가진 행렬을 동일 크기의 시스톨릭 어레이로 연산하였을 때 필요 사이클 수를 최대 12 사이클 절감할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.

Parallel imaging technique can provide several advantages for a multitude of MRI applications. Especially, in SENSE technique, sensitivity maps were always required in order to determine the reconstruction matrix, therefore, a number of difference approaches using sensitivity information from coils have been demonstrated to improve of image quality. Moreover, many filtering methods were proposed such as adaptive matched filter and nonlinear diffusion technique to optimize the suppression of background noise and to improve of image quality. In this study, we performed SENSE reconstruction using computer simulations to confirm the most suitable method for the feasibility of filtering effect and according to changing order of polynomial fit that were applied on variation of spatial resolution of sensitivity map. The image was obtained at 0.32T(Magfinder II, Genpia, Korea) MRI system using spin-echo pulse sequence(TR/TE = 500/20 ms, FOV = 300 mm, matrix = $128{\times}128$, thickness = 8 mm). For the simulation, obtained image was multiplied with four linear-array coil sensitivities which were formed of 2D-gaussian distribution and the image was complex white gaussian noise was added. Image processing was separated to apply two methods which were polynomial fitting and filtering according to spatial resolution of sensitivity map and each coil image was subsampled corresponding to reduction factor(r-factor) of 2 and 4. The results were compared to mean value of geomety factor(g-factor) and artifact power(AP) according to r-factor 2 and 4. Our results were represented while changing of spatial resolution of sensitivity map and r-factor, polynomial fit methods were represented the better results compared with general filtering methods. Although our result had limitation of computer simulation study instead of applying to experiment and coil geometric array such as linear, our method may be useful for determination of optimal sensitivity map in a linear coil array.
