B.P.F.(Blade Passing Frequency) levels were measured with the cut-off clearance changes. The velocity inside the scroll, pressure fluctuation at cut-off region, and the scroll surface pressure distribution along the scroll from the cut-off to outlet were measured. With a certain cut-off clearance the improvement of efficiency and attenuation of B.P.F. noise level could be achieved. The measured results of pressure fluctuation and scroll surface pressure distribution showed that the secondary flow inside the scroll increased B.P.F. noise level at the cut-off region as the cut-off clearance got wide.

In this paper, we attempted a qualitative understanding of mutual injection locking without rigorous mathematics, and analyzed the proposed mutual injection locked light source. Also, a low-cost WDM-PON light source based on mutual injection locking using two unpolarized Fabry-Perot Laser Diodes (F-P LDs), was implemented. The RIN (Relative Intensity Noise) characteristic for the wavelength change of the F-P LD was measured, and when the variable wavelength range was 2.07 nm, it showed a RIN of at least -110 dB/Hz.

A Q-band pHEMT image-rejection low-noise amplifier (IR-LNA) is presented using inter-stage tunable resonators. The inter-stage L-C resonators can maximize an image rejection by functioning as inter-stage matching circuits at an operating frequency ($F_{OP}$) and short circuits at an image frequency ($F_{IM}$). In addition, it also brings more wideband image rejection than conventional notch filters. Moreover, tunable varactors in L-C resonators not only compensate for the mismatch of an image frequency induced by the process variation or model error but can also change the image frequency according to a required RF frequency. The implemented pHEMT IR-LNA shows 54.3 dB maximum image rejection ratio (IRR). By changing the varactor bias, the image frequency shifts from 27 GHz to 37 GHz with over 40 dB IRR, a 19.1 dB to 17.6 dB peak gain, and 3.2 dB to 4.3 dB noise figure. To the best of the authors' knowledge, it shows the highest IRR and $F_{IM}/F_{OP}$ of the reported millimeter/quasi-millimeter wave IR-LNAs.

Purpose Recently PET/CT image's attenuation correction is used CTAC(Computed Tomgraphy Attenuation Correction). it can quantitative evaluation by SUV(Standard Uptake Value). This study's purpose is to evaluate SUV and to find proper CT kernel using CTAC with applied various CT kernel to PET/CT construction. Materials and Methods Biograph mCT 64 was used for the equipment. We were performed on 20 patients who had examed at our hospital from february through March 2017. Using NEMA IEC Body Phantom, The data was reconstructed PET/CT images with CTAC appiled various CT kernel. ANOVA was used to evaluated the significant difference in the result. Results The result of measuring the radioactivity concentration of Phantom was B45F 96% and B80F 6.58% against B08F CT kernel, each respectively. the SUVmax increased to B45F 0.86% and B80F 6.54% against B08F CT kernel, In case of patient's parts data, the Lung SUVmax increased to B45F 1.6% and B80F 6.6%, Liver SUVmax increased to B45F 0.7% and B80F 4.7%, and Bone SUVmax increased to B45F 1.3% and B80F 6.2%, respectively. As for parts of patient's about Standard Deviation(SD), the Lung SD increased to B45F 4.2% and B80F 15.4%, Liver SD increased to B45F 2.1% and B80F 11%, and Bone SD increased to B45F 2.3% and B80F 14.7%, respectively. There was no significant difference discovered in three CT kernel (P >.05). Conclusion When using increased noise CT kernel for PET/CT reconstruction, It tends to change both SUVmax and SD in ROI(region of interest), Due to the increase the CT kernel number, Sharp noise increased in ROI. so SUVmax and SD were highly measured, but there was no statistically significant difference. Therefore Using CT kernel of low variation of SD occur less variation of SUV.

In this paper, a wavelength tunable light source based on mutually injected locking with two F-P LDs, has been constructed and then analyzed for wavelength shift and RIN (Relative Intensity noise) according to temperature. We have measured maximum about 2 nm for the wavelength shift and minimum -110dB/hz for the RIN. Also, the RIN and beating noise in eye patterns are increased by changing temperature high.

Low frequency heavy-weight impact noise is the most irritating noise in Korean high-rise reinforced concrete apartment buildings. This low frequency noise is generated by foot traffic due to the fact that Koreans do not wear shoes at home. The transmission of the noise is facilitated by a load bearing wall structural system without beams and columns which is used in these buildings. In order to control low frequency heavy-weight impact noise, floating floors using isolation materials such as glass-wool mat and poly-urethane mat are used. However, it was difficult to control low frequency heavy-weight impact sound using isolation material. In this study, reinforcement of concrete slab using beams and plate was conducted. Using the FEM analysis, the effect of concrete slab reinforcement using FRP(fiber-glass reinforced plastic) on the bang machine impact vibration acceleration level and sound were conducted at the standard floor impact sound test building. The $3{\sim}4dB$ floor impact vibration acceleration level and impact sound pressure level were reduced and the natural frequency of slabs were changed.

In this paper, the Si vertical Hall devices ale fabricated by using standard bipolar process and investigated in terms of the opeating and noise properties. The sensitivity of device with P+ isolation dam(type B) has been increased up to about 1.2 times compared to that device without the dam also noise has been increased. With the condition of f=I[KHz], band-width 1[Hz], the resolution of magnetic-field detection were about $0.97[{\mu}T]$/ type B and $1.25[{\mu}T]$/ type A, respectively, thus we must consider correlation the low noise or good resolution and high sensitivity in the situation for device geometry design or even for the materials.

o.25${\mu}m$ T-shaped gate P-HEMT is fabricated and used for design of X0band three stage monolithic microwave integrated circuit(MMIC) low noise amplifier(LNA). The fabricated P-HEMT exhibits an extrinsis transconductance of 400mS/mm and a drain current of 400mA/mm. The RF and noise characteristics show that the current gain cut off frequency is 65GHz and minimum noise figure(NFmin) of 0.7dB with an associated gain of 14.8dB at 9GHz. In the design of the three stage LNA, we have used the inductive series feedback circuit topology with the short stub. The effects of series feedback to the noise figure, the gain, and the stability have been investigated to find the optimal short stub length. The designed three staage LNA showed a gain of above 33dB, a noise figure of under 1.2dB, and ainput/output return loss of under 15dB and 14dB, respectively. The results show that the fabricated P-HEMT is very suitable for a X-band LNA with high gain.

In this paper, we describe the cause of TDMA noise and distinction method of TDMA noise source in a GSM mobile phone. The causes of TDMA noise are composed of RF(Radio Frequency) energy coupling and low frequency energy coupling by burst ripple. We propose the distinction method of TDMA noise source from output(TDMA noise measurement) and frequency response of a system(audio path). Especially we propose a method of insertion loss($S_{21}$) analysis and the improvement method for RF energy coupling. Capacitor(40 pF) is a solution to reduce RF energy coupling and therefore TDMA noise was reduced by 10 dB.

In this paper, a W-band single-chip receiver MMIC for FMCW(Frequency-modulated continuous-wave) radar is presented using $0.15{\mu}m$ GaAs pHEMT technology. The receiver MMIC consists of a 4-stage low noise amplifier(LNA), a down-converting mixer and a 3-stage LO buffer amplifier. The LNA is designed to exhibit a low noise figure and high linearity. A resistive mixer is adopted as a down-converting mixer in order to obtain high linearity and low noise performance at low IF. An additional LO buffer amplifier is also demonstrated to reduce the required LO power of the W-band mixer. The fabricated W-band single-chip receiver MMIC shows an excellent performance such as a conversion gain of 6.2 dB, a noise figure of 5.0 dB and input 1-dB compression point($P_{1dB,in}$) of -12.8 dBm, at the RF frequency of $f_0$ GHz, LO input power of -1 dBm and IF frequency of 100 MHz.
