Defense Systems Test Center in ADD supports increasingly various missile test requirements such as higher altitude event, multi target operation and low-altitude, high velocity target tracking. In this paper, we have proposed the development of instrumentation radar tracking status simulator based on virtual reality. This simulator can predict the tracking status and risk of failure using several modeling algorithms. It consists of target model, radar model, environment model and several algorithms includes the multipath interference effects. Simulation results show that the predict tracking status and signal are similar to the test results of the live flight test. This simulator predicts and analyze all of the status and critical parameters such as the optimal site location, servo response, optimal flight trajectory, LOS(Line of Sight). This simulator provides the mission plan with a powerful M&S tool to rehearse and analyze instrumentation tracking radar measurement plan for live flight test at DSTC(Defense Systems Test Center).

Objective: To examine the effects of sodium intake on the correlations between the saltsensitive gene ${\alpha}$-adducin 1 (ADD1) and inflammatory cytokines in Korean childhood obesity. Methods: A total of 2,070 students aged 8-9 years old participated in this study. The anthropometrics, serum biochemistry profile, inflammatory cytokines, and three-day dietary assessment were analyzed according to sex, obesity degree, and ADD1 polymorphism. Results: The obesity prevalence was higher in boys (15.6%) than in girls (11.9%). Boys also showed higher values in anthropometrics; lipid, glucose, and insulin profiles; total calorie intakes, as well as those of sodium and calcium compared with those of the girls. The more obese were boys and girls, the higher were the anthropometrics and the blood levels (total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood sugar, and insulin), but the lower was high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The obese boys had significantly higher sodium and Na/K intakes, while the obese girls had higher visfatin level and Na/K intake. In addition, an increase in the risk factors for blood pressure and obesity in ADD1 variants was identified. Serum tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$($TNF-{\alpha}$) significantly increased with increasing sodium intake in the ADD1 W allele carriers, regardless of sex. The presence of obesity with the ADD1 W allele induced inflammatory accelerators such as $TNF-{\alpha}$ or C-reactive protein(CRP) with higher sodium intake. Conclusion: Obese children with an ADD1w allele can experience a more complex form of obesity than non-obese when exposed to an obesity-inducing environment and need to be controlled sodium intake in the diet.

Gene polymorphisms that are associated with sodium homeostasis in the body, such as $\alpha-adducin$ (ADDI, Gly460Trp), angiotensinogen (AGT, Met235Thr), and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE, Ins/Del) may increase the risk for the development of hypertension. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the relationship between the singular and combined effects of ADD1, AGT, ACE genotypes, and blood pressure in elderly population. Moreover, we examined the interaction of sodium intake and polymorphisms of aforementioned genes and their effects on blood pressure. Among one hundred and nine female subjects, aged 60 and over (mean 75.9 yr), the major alleles for ADD1, AGT, and ACE polymorphisms in the studied population were Gly (66.1%), Thr (64.2%), Ins (83.5%), respectively. Analysis on the combined effects of genetic variation showed that subjects who were both ADD1 Trp/Trp and ACE Del/Del homozygotes had significantly higher systolic blood pressure (p=0.01). Similarly, ACE Del/Del homozygotes who had AGT Met allele had significantly higher diastolic blood pressure (p<0.001). However, in single-gene analyses, no association was found between any specific genotype and blood pressure. In subjects with low sodium intake, ADD1 Trp/Trp homozygotes had significantly higher systolic blood pressure than subjects who had ADD1 Gly allele (138 mmHg vs. 127 mmHg, p=0.03). There was no difference in blood pressure between ADD1 Trp/Trp and ADD1 Gly/Gly or Gly/Trp, in subjects with high sodium intake. In summary, this study shows that interactions between the ADD1, AGT and ACE genes influence systolic and diastolic blood pressure in elderly subjects, and dietary sodium intake can modulate the effects of ADD1 Gly460Trp polymorphisms on systolic blood pres sure.

In this paper, we have proposed a fuel metering unit of ai breathing engine. The proposed valve system consists of a constant pressure drop valve and a metering valve, which are controlled by servovalve. We carried out nonlinear and linear analysis, computer simulation and experimentation to find effects of some factors on system performance. Analysis and experimental results show a good agreement. It is also shown that the system stability is affected by pressure drop of metering valve and inlet pressure of injectors.

This paper presents a new method of measuring the ground's gradient using LNS(land navigation system) navigation data. When a vehicle equipped with LNS arrives at any place, LNS provides its navigation data which contain the information on vehicle's motion. We developed some formulas which can explain correlation between the vehicle's motion and ground's gradient. The proposed method using those formulas is shown to be accurate and convenient.

In this paper, we have experimentally studied on phase characteristics of airborne radome for ELINT directional finding system, because it is difficult to find theoretical solutions for phase error of the radome. Especially, we described the millimeter wave band radome that was fabricated with cyanate-ester material and its thickness was 2mm. We presented the phase error about millimeter band radome. That phase error is about 30 degrees for parallel and perpendicular polarization in the K-Ka band. That is reasonable value for the ELINT directional finding system.

This paper describes about the analysis of firing rebounding force exerted on the launching system supporting structure. The measured high pressure data at the launching tube is used as external force. The maximum firing rebounding force was occurred when the snubber of inner structure contacts the surface of wall in launching tube.

This study describes an SDINS/GPS/ZUPT integration algorithm for land navigation systems. The SDINS error can be decoupled in two parts. The first part is the the Schuler component which does not depend on object motion parameters, and the other is the Non-Schuler part which depends on the product of object acceleration and azimuth error. Azimuth error causes SDINS error in proportion to the traversed distance. The proposed system consists of a GPS/SDINS integration system and an SDINS/ZUPT integration system, which are both realized by an indirect feedforward Kalman filter. The main difference between the two is whether the estimate includes the Non-Schuler error or not, which is decided by the measurement type. Consequently, subtracting GPS/SDINS outputs from SDINS/ZUPT outputs provide the Non-Schuler error information which can be applied to improving azimuth accuracy. Simulation results using the raw data obtained from a van test attest that the proposed SDINS/GPS/ZUPT system is capable of providing azimuth improvement.

This paper presents UGV localization using multi-sensor fusion based on federated filter in outdoor environments. The conventional GPS/INS integrated system does not guarantee the robustness of localization because GPS is vulnerable to external disturbances. In many environments, however, vision system is very efficient because there are many features compared to the open space and these features can provide much information for UGV localization. Thus, this paper uses the scene matching and pose estimation based vision navigation, magnetic compass and odometer to cope with the GPS-denied environments. NR-mode federated filter is used for system safety. The experiment results with a predefined path demonstrate enhancement of the robustness and accuracy of localization in outdoor environments.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of improving texture and flavor of Dasik made of pine pollen with waxy rice flour and Angelica gigas leaf powder addition. Pine pollen Dasik was not affected in shape, flavor, texture, taste, melting degree and unpleasant flavor by add of 10％ rice flour. Flavor, texture and melting degree were little bit affected by add of 30％ rice flour but all items got worse with same amount of rice flour addition. Add of Angeleica leaf powder by 10％ improved a little the texture while flavor was decreased.
