This paper proposes a new LDMOSFET structure with a trenched sinker for high-power RF amplifiers. Using a low-temperature, deep-trench technology, we succeeded in drastically shrinking the sinker area to one-third the size of the conventional diffusion-type structure. The RF performance of the proposed device with a channel width of 5 mm showed a small signal gain of 16.5 dB and a maximum peak power of 32 dBm with a power-added efficiency of 25% at 2 GHz. Furthermore, the trench sinker, which was applied to the guard ring to suppress coupling between inductors, showed an excellent blocking performance below -40 dB at a frequency of up to 20 GHz. These results confirm that the proposed trenched sinker should be an effective technology both as a compact sinker for RF power devices and as a guard ring against coupling.

In this study, the influence of electromagnetic wave effected on human body of light sensing was classified. Subjects of the eye was stimulated by the rays of LED and the measured electrical signals(EEG, EOG and ERG) in human body were compared and analyzed in the case of exposed at electromagnetic wave or not. The result show that when the subjects were not exposed at electromagnetic wave, the ratio of a wave has a large percentage in the EEG signal and the ratio of $\beta$ wave has come to good.

An algorithm for the reduction of blocking artifacts is pro-posed. Instead of filtering the pixels by a digital filter, the proposed algorithm considers the compressed image as continuous-time ,signal and replaces it by a pre-designed lowpass filter outputs. The algorithm shows better performance than the conventional methods in low activity region, and comparable or a little worse objective performance in high activity region. Hence, by applying the proposed algorithm to the low activity region and the conventional ones to the high activity region, the objective and subjective performances are improved in most cases.

This paper presents a new numerical algorithm suitable for defining recloser reclaims time and blocking automatic reclosing during permanent faults on overhead lines. It is based on terminal voltage input data processing. The decision if it is safe or not to reclose is determined from the voltage signal of faulted and tripped line phase using Total Harmonic Distortion factor calculated by Discrete Fourier Transform. The algorithm was successfully tested using signals recorded on the real power system. The tests demonstrate the ability of presented algorithm to determine the secondary arc extinction time and to block unsuccessful automatic reclosing of HV lines with permanent fault.

We present an intelligent optical switching structure based on our lambda-group model along with a working scheme that can provide a distinctive approach for dividing complicated traffic into specific tunnels for better optical performance and grooming efficiency. Both the results and figures from our experiments show that the particular channel partition not only helps in reducing ports significantly, but also improves the average signal-to-noise ratio of the wavelength channel and the blocking performance for dynamic connection requests.

In this paper, for phase lock loop(PLL) synthesizer, we introduce a novel but simple and low cost frequency modulation(FM) circuit of a flat peak frequency deviation for modulation signal from high to very low frequency penetrating into the loop-bandwidth of PLL. The FM circuit was basically designed to compensate an amount of feedback of the loop filter in PLL. The circuit also includes the capability of the adjustment of peak frequency deviation and blocking the interference with the loop filter. The designed circuit was successfully implemented and showed the flat frequency deviation as expected in the design.

This paper proposes a current differential relaying algorithm for power transformers using the third difference function of a differential current. The algorithm observes the instants when the wave-shape of the differential current is changed due to the change of the magnetization inductance. If the value of the third difference is bigger than the threshold, the output of a current differential relay is blocked for a cycle. In the cases of magnetic inrush and overexcitation, the blocking signal is maintained: however, for internal faults, reset in a cycle. The test results clearly show that the algorithm successfully distinguishes internal faults from magnetizing inrush.

In this paper, a reliable control system structured with dual CPU modules and dual I/O modules is implemented as a means of achieving a highly reliable fault tolerant control system. For this, faults in the system modules are first examined, and a fault detection technique consisting of self diagnostic, comparison process, and exception processing is applied. Self diagnostic is used to locate which components in the modules have been failed, while comparison process is to cmpare control outputs computed by both CPU modules and protect the plant from malfunction by blocking failed control outputsin advance. Finally exception processing is used to determine the faults that are not detected immediately by the self diagnostic and comparison process, e.g. bus error processing when acknowledge signal for data transfer is not activeted in the I/O modules. Also reliability analysis is conducted for the discrete time Markov model with dual structure. It is shown quantitatively that the reliability is improved in the control system with dual structure in comparison with a system with single module structure.

The video coding for very low bit rate has recently received considerable attention, but conventional block based transform coding schemes suffer from the blocking effect for the constraints of bit rates. In this paper, we present a video coding sysem suing multi-resolution motion estimation/compensation with variable size block(VMRME/C) and multi-resolution vector quantization(MRVQ) in wavelet transform domain for very low bit rate coding. It is shown that the presented scheme has better performance in the peak signal-to-nose ratio(RSNR) by 0.2-0.6 dB as well as subjective quality than that of conventional block based transform video coding techniques(especially, H. 263 which is DCT based video coding).
