  • Recently, infrared (IR) spectrometers have been required in various fields such as environment, safety, mobile, automotive, and military. This IR dispersive sensor detection method of substances is widely used. In this study, we fabricated a silicon (Si) prism-based near infrared (NIR) spectrometer utilizing micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) technology. Si prism-based NIR spectrometer utilizing MEMS technology consists of upper, middle, and lower substrates. The upper substrate passes through the incident IR ray selectively. The middle substrate, acting as a prism, disperses and separates the incident IR beam. The lower substrate has an amorphous Si (a-Si)-based bolometer array to detect the IR spectrum. The fabricated Si prism-based NIR spectrometer utilizing MEMS technology has the advantage of a simple structure, easy fabrication steps, and a wide NIR region operating range.

  • This paper presents a standardization method for designing wire harness systems, based on the control types and functional blocks, for use in commercial vehicles. With a rapid increase in the installation of systems with added new features, it is very important to develop a reliable wire harness design in a short time by standardizing wire harness designs and reusing the standard design. Because the function of a system, particularly, for commercial vehicles, varies significantly on the basis of the requirements, regulations, and options, it is not effective to establish one standard design for one system. In addition, a system with the same function may differ in terms of the input conditions and output loads on the basis of the installed vehicle types, and it is not practical to standardize a harness design targeting an entire system. In this study, the wire harness designs of a system were classified into six categories based on the control types of the system: switch driven, control of a switch, control of an electronic control unit, unit driven, control of a unit, and connector operation. Then, a wire harness design of each system was divided into three blocks according to their functions: the control, drive, and monitoring blocks. The standard wire harness designs were made for each functional block of each control type. The advantage of this proposed method is that an effective and practical design can be obtained, which covers the diversities in the same system for different grades of commercial vehicles with a reduction in the number of wire harness supplements.

  • Ultra wideband radars attract considerable attention as a short range automotive radar because of its high range resolution. Radar signal reflected from a target often contains unwanted echoes called as clutter, so the detection of target is difficult due to clutter echoes. Therefore, it is important to investigate the radar detector for better detecting from the reflected signals. In this paper, the optimal detector is obtained for various mean and variance value in log-normal clutter environment. The types of non-coherent detectors used are square law detector, linear detector, and logarithmic detector. The performances of detectors are compared in log normal clutter environment and the suitable detector is determined for automotive short range radar application.

  • A non-contact type magnetic signal monitoring equipment for automotive electric devices is proposed in this paper. There are many kinds of actuators in the car like solenoid, relay, motor, injector, etc which are operated by magnetic energy. It is difficult to find out whether the actuators operate well or not because the terminals of the actuators are combined to the connectors. In this paper a non-contact type magnetic signal monitoring equipment using Hall effect sensor is proposed to measure the magnetic signal of the actuators very easily to find out the actuators' operating status. The simulation and experimental results show that the developed equipment is very useful and has good performance.

  • The estimation of the remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is important for intelligent battery management system (BMS). Data mining technology is becoming increasingly mature, and the RUL estimation of Li-ion batteries based on data-driven prognostics is more accurate with the arrival of the era of big data. However, the support vector machine (SVM), which is applied to predict the RUL of Li-ion batteries, uses the traditional single-radial basis kernel function. This type of classifier has weak generalization ability, and it easily shows the problem of data migration, which results in inaccurate prediction of the RUL of Li-ion batteries. In this study, a novel multi-kernel SVM (MSVM) based on polynomial kernel and radial basis kernel function is proposed. Moreover, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to search the kernel parameters, penalty factor, and weight coefficient of the MSVM model. Finally, this paper utilizes the NASA battery dataset to form the observed data sequence for regression prediction. Results show that the improved algorithm not only has better prediction accuracy and stronger generalization ability but also decreases training time and computational complexity.

  • This study compares supply chain integration practices of high performing manufacturing plants in Korea and those in the U.S., Japan, and six European countries. Data were drawn from the High Performance Manufacturing(HPM) Round 3, a joint data-collection effort on manufacturing and supply chain management. Specifically, in the automotive, electronics, and machinery industries, we selected twenty Korean plants with high performance reputation and chose the same number of non-Korean plants(HPM top 20), based upon their competitive manufacturing capability index and customer satisfaction index. The Korean plants do not significantly differ from HPM top 20 plants in that internal value creation activities are coordinated and integrated at the corporate level and between plants. The Korean plants, however, demonstrated more integration with suppliers than with customers, and only the two of them were classified as 'outward facing', which pursues greater integration with both customers and suppliers. Unbalanced and lower integration with customers of the Korean plants was attributed to the lower than expected manufacturing capability and customer satisfaction. Implications for supply chain professionals were discussed.

  • We proposed a novel electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) cell-embedded antenna structure for reducing the interference that radiates at the antenna edge in wireless access in vehicular environment (WAVE) communication systems for vehicle-to-everything communications. To suppress the radiation of surface waves from the ground plane and vehicle, EBG cells were inserted between micropatch arrays. A simulation was also performed to determine the optimum EBG cell structure located above the ground plane in a conformal linear microstrip patch array antenna. The characteristics such as return loss, peak gain, and radiation patterns obtained using the fabricated EBG cell-embedded antenna were superior to those obtained without the EBG cells. A return loss of 35.14 dB, peak gain of 10.15 dBi at 80°, and improvement of 2.037 dB max at the field of view in the radiation beam patterns were obtained using the proposed WAVE antenna.
