In this study, we analyzed two types of echolocation calls used by the parti-coloured bat, Vespertilio sinensis. Bats were captured in the Naejangsan National Park in October 2013. Call sounds of hand-released bats were recorded at the location of capture within the National Park. We analyzed pulse duration (PD), pulse interval (PI), peak frequency (PF), maximum frequency ($F_{MAX}$), minimum frequency ($F_{MIN}$), and bandwidth (BW). V. sinensis emitted the different types of the echolocation calls depending on the surrounding environment. Frequency modulated-constant frequency (FM-CF) signal of audible range was emitted when they flew in the uncluttered space over the canopy. However, when flying in the cluttered space below the canopy, they only emitted FM signal. FM-CF signal is in the audible range (e.g., low frequency), and FM signal has a harmonic broadband frequency range of two. There were significant differences in PD, PI, PF, FMAX, FMIN, and BW between the calls emitted over and below the canopy. Considering the functional characteristics of FM and CF signals, we conclude that the foraging activity of V. sinensis was observed below the canopy, and recommend the use of FM signal and broadband as echolocation signals.

환경특성에 따른 집박쥐(Pipistrellus abramus)의 반향정위 변화를 분석하기 위하여 2009년 4월부터 8월까지 경상북도 경주시 천북면 일원의 주간 휴식장소를 대상으로 실시하였다. 환경특성 유형은 일몰 후 출현순간, 출현 후 이동, 논 경작지, 산림 가장자리, 개방공간, 주택단지 등 6개 유형으로 구분하여 비교하였다. 분석결과 환경특성에 따른 차이 및 서식지간 이동과 먹이포획을 위한 비행 사이에서는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 외부 환경으로의 출현 순간에서는 짧은 시간의 FM 시그널만 확인되었으며, 개방 공간에서는 긴 시간의 CF 시그널 형태의 음을 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 외 환경특성에서는 펄스의 형태적인 차이는 있었지만 FM과 CF 시그널을 혼합하여 이용하는 것으로 확인되었다. 먹이포획을 위한 비행과 서식지간 이동을 위한 비행에서는 펄스의 지속시간을 제외한 펄스 간격, 최고 진동수, 개시부와 종결부 진동수에서는 두 가지 비행패턴 사이에서 유의적인 차이가 확인되었다. 출현순간을 제외하고 서식지간 이동을 위한 비행시에는 곤충의 반향을 감지하여 곤충의 탐색에 적합한 협대역의 FM 시그널과 긴 펄스 지속시간을 가지는 형태를 보였으며, 먹이포획을 위한 비행에서는 폭넓은 탐색과 정확한 위치파악을 위한 광대역의 FM 시그널과 짧은 시간의 펄스 지속시간을 갖는 것으로 확인되었다.

In this paper, we suggest a method for discretized frequency modulations of ultrasonic signals. A continuous sweep of frequency modulation signals can be modelled with fine levels of discretization. If the ultrasound signals are modulated with monotonically decreasing frequencies, then the cross-correlation between an emitted signal and received signal can be used to identify the distance of multiple target objects. For the discretized frequency synthesis, CF ultrasounds with different frequencies are serially ordered. The auto-correlation test with the signal shows effective results for distance estimation. The discretized frequency syntheses have better distance resolution than CF ultrasound signals and the resolution depends on the number of the combined ultrasound frequencies.

Herein, we present a compact transversal bandpass filter (BPF) with an extremely wide upper stopband and multiple transmission zeros (TZ). Three signal transmission paths with shorted stubs and open-coupled lines allow signal transmission from input port to output port. Two resonant modes can be excited simultaneously and managed easily for bandpass response. Eleven TZs are achieved via transmission path cancelation; an extremely wide upper stopband with an attenuation level better than -12 dB is achieved up to 11.7 f0, where f0 is the center frequency (CF). In addition, bandwidth and CF can be controlled by adjusting electrical lengths. For proof of concept, a wideband BPF centered at 1.04 GHz with 3 dB fractional bandwidths of 49.2% was designed, fabricated, and evaluated. The overall circuit measures 0.045λg × 0.117λg; good agreement was observed between the measured and simulated results.

탄소나노튜브(CNT)의 물성은 고분자재료의 기계적, 전도성, 열적 물성을 향상시켜주기 때문에 많은 분야에서 소재개발을 진행 중이다. 본 연구에서는 사전에 CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 제조하여 나노입자에 대한 분산도와 나노복합재료 생산성을 높일 수 있는 기초 재료를 제조하였다. 제조된 CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 이용하여 손상 감지용 CNT 나노복합재료를 제조하여 균열에 대한 손상감지능과 균열 보강효과에 대한 영향을 연구하였다. CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 이용하여 제조된 CNT 1 wt% 나노복합재는 일반 CNT 파우더를 이용하여 CNT 1 wt% 나노복합재료를 제조하였을 경우보다 인장과 굴곡물성이 높음을 확인하였다. CF30wt%/PP에 인위적인 균열을 제조하고, 균열부위에 CNT 나노복합재료를 보강하여 균열 및 파괴 발생 감지능을 균열크기에 따라 전기저항 측정법과 인장물성평가를 통해 분석하였다. CNT 나노복합재료를 균열 부위에 보강하여 CF30wt%/PP의 인장물성을 분석하였을 경우, 균열보강효과가 있었다. 균열크기가 증가함에 따라 CNT 나노복합재료의 보강효과의 증가되었다. 이는 CNT 나노복합재료와 CF30wt%/PP간의 접착면 증가로 균열전파를 지연하기 때문이다. CNT 나노복합재료의 손상감지능에 대해서는 전기저항 평가법으로 분석하였으며, 접착면에서의 분리로 인해 CNT 나노복합재료에 충격이 가해져 높은 전기저항 증가구간을 확인하였다. 손상감지용 CNT 나노복합재료의 균열방지효과와 손상감지에 대한 전기저항 평가법의 가능성을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a new and simple input prediction method for robust servo system. A robust tracking control system for optical disk drives was proposed recently based on both Coprime Factorization (CF) and Zero Phase Error Tracking (ZPET) control. The CF control system can be designed simply and systematically. Moreover, this system has not only stability but also robustness to parameter uncertainties and disturbance rejection capability. Since optical disk tracking servo system can detect only tracking error, it was proposed that the reference input signal for ZPET could be estimated from tracking errors. In this paper, we propose a new control structure for the ZPET controller. It requires less memory than the previously proposed method for the reference signal generation. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed method is effective.

This paper proposes a new and simple input prediction method for robust servo system. A robust tracking control system for optical disk drives to reject disk runout was recently proposed based on both Coprime Factorization(CF) and Zero Phase Error Tracking(ZPET) control. The CF control system can be designed simply and systematically. Moreover, this system has not only stability but also robustness to parameter uncertainties and disturbance rejection capability. Since optical disk tracking servo systems can detect only racking error, it was proposed that the reference input signal for ZPET could be estimated from tracking errors. In this paper, we propose a new control structure for the ZPET controller. It requires less memory than the previously proposed method for the reference signal generation. Therefore, it is very effective in runout control. Furthermore, this method can be applied to defective optical disk like surface defects on disk. Numerical simulation and experimental result show the proposed method effective.

Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) signal planned for future Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) provided better positioning accuracy and smaller multipath error than GPS C/A signal. However, due to the multiple side peaks in the auto-correlation function (ACF) of the BOC modulated signals, a receiver may false lock onto one of the side peaks in the tracking mode. This false lock would then result in a fatal tracking error. In this paper, we propose an unambiguous tracking method for composite BOC (CBOC) signals to mitigate this problem. It aims to reduce the side peaks of the ACF of CBOC modulated signals. It is based on the combination of traditional CBOC correlation function (CF) and reference CF of unmodulated pseudo- random noise code (PRN code). First, we present that cross-correlation function (CCF) with unmodulated PRN code is close to the secondary peaks of the traditional CBOC. Then, we obtain an unambiguous correlation function by subtracting traditional CBOC ACF from these CFs. Finally, the tracking performance for the CBOC signals is examined, and it is shown that the proposed method has better performance than the traditional unambiguous tracking method in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel.

One of the major issues in inertial and magnetic measurement unit (IMMU)-based 3D orientation estimation is compensation for magnetic disturbances in magnetometer signals, as the magnetic disturbance is a major cause of inaccurate yaw estimation. In the proposed approach, a kinematic constraint is used to provide a measurement equation in addition to the accelerometer and magnetometer signals to mitigate the disturbance effect on the orientation estimation. Although a Kalman filter (KF) is the most popular framework for IMMU-based orientation estimation, a complementary filter (CF) has its own advantages over KF in terms of mathematical simplicity and ease of implementation. Accordingly, this paper introduces a quaternion-based CF with a constraint-combined correction equation. Furthermore, the weight of the constraint relative to the magnetometer signal is adjusted to adapt to magnetic environments to optimally deal with the magnetic disturbance. In the results of our validation experiments, the average and maximum of yaw errors were $1.17^{\circ}$ and $1.65^{\circ}$ from the proposed CF, respectively, and $8.88^{\circ}$ and $14.73^{\circ}$ from the conventional CF, respectively, showing the superiority of the proposed approach.
