In this paper, we proposed a novel crowbar circuit for high-speed discharge charge switching to solve discharge charge-time delay of supply voltage in the conventional crowbar circuit. The proposed circuit is designed to increase the charge-speed after high-speed discharge of supply voltage, thereby reducing the time exposed to radiation damage and, the normal operation time of electronic system after passing the pulse radiation. The simulation of the discharge charge-times before the implement of the hardware is conducted using Cadence's pspice tool, and DUT (Device Under Test) board is fabricated in the device level. The comparison measurement of the crowbar circuits is performed on the satellite-electronic device for 24V. As the result, we confirmed the high-speed function of the proposed circuit by improvement of the discharge-speed 96.8% and the charge-speed 27.3% as compared with the conventional circuit.

CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) is one of the well-known algorithms in blind acoustic channel equalization. Generally, CMA converges slowly and the speed of convergence is dependent on a step-size in the CMA procedure. Many researches have tried to speed up the convergence speed by applying a variable step-size to CMA, e.g. the orthogonal projection CMA and algebraic optimal step-size CMA. In this paper, we summarize these two algorithms, and we propose a new CMA with improved convergence performance. The improvement comes from the switching between the orthogonal projection CMA and algebraic optimal step-size CMA. In simulation results, we show the performance improvement in the time invariant channels as well as in time varying channel.

The objective of an echo canceller connected to any end of a communication line such as digital subscriber line (DSL) is to compensate the outgoing transmit signal in the receiving path that the hybrid circuit leaks. The echo canceller working in a full duplex environment is an adaptive system driven by the local signal. Conventional echo canceller that implement the least mean square (LMS) algorithm provides a low computational burden but poor convergence properties. The length of the echo canceller will directly affect both the degree of performance and the convergence speed of the adaptation process. To cancel long time-varying echoes, the number of tap coefficients of a conventional echo canceller must be large, which decreases the convergence speed of the adaptive filter. This paper proposes an alternative technique for the echo cancellation in a telecommunication channel. The new technique employs the bi-directional least mean square (LMS) algorithm for adaptively computing the optimal set of the coefficients of the echo canceller, which is composed of weighted combination of both feedforward and feedback algorithms. Finally, Simulation results as well as mathematical analysis demonstrates that the proposed echo canceller has faster convergence speed than the conventional LMS echo canceller with nearly equivalent complexity of computation.

In this study, image analysis and surface roughness measurements using an optical microscope are presented as a method to quantitatively evaluate the results of screen printing. Using this method, the squeegee speed, which is the printing process condition, and the printability of the electrode according to the screen mesh were evaluated. Increasing the squeegee speed in the printing process acts as a process element that increases the line width precision of the printed electrode and lowers the surface roughness of the printed surface. Furthermore, the edge roughness, which indicates the clarity of printing, was not significantly affected by the speed of the squeegee during printing. The print thickness increases in proportion to the squeegee speed, but is largely dependent on the screen thickness.

Conventionally in the industrial control, PlD controller has been used because of its robustness, and nonlinear characteristic of a system under control. Although the PlD controller produce suitable parameter of the each system and also variable of PlD controller should be changed according to environment, disturbance, load. In this paper, the convergence and learning accuracy of the back-propagation(BP) method in neural network are investigated by analyzing the reason for decelerating the convergence of BP method. and examining the rapid deceleration of the convergence when the learning is executed on the part of sigmoid activation function with the very small first derivative. The modified logistic activation function it proposed by defining the convergence factor based on the analysis and applied to the position and speed control of a DC-servo motor. This paper revealed for experimental, a neural network and a PD controller combined off-line system using developed the position and speed characteristics of a DC-servo motor.

This paper presents development of the transponder system which provides an accurate train position, especially for supporting 400km/h high speed train. Here, we analyzed an operating frequency band of the transponder system which can be interoperable with the Eurobalise system already installed in Korea railroad as to be used for the automatic train protection (ATP). By investigating the power frequency band and its data frequency band of the transponder system, we presents the adoptable frequency band for the developed transponder system. Additionally, through the real testbed using HEMU-430X, we evaluate its performance requirement and shows interoperable operation with the Eurobalise system.

As intelligent autonomous driving vehicle development has become a big topic around the world, accurate reference dynamics estimation has been more important than before. Current systems generally use speed and heading information sensed from a distant point as a vehicle reference dynamic, however, the dynamics between different points are not same especially during rotating motions. In order to estimate properly estimate the reference dynamics from the information such as velocity and heading sensed at a point distant from the reference point such as center of gravity, this study proposes estimating reference dynamics from any location in the vehicle by combining the Bicycle and Ackermann models. A test system was constructed by implementing multiple GNSS/INS equipment on an Robot Operating System (ROS) and an actual car. Angle and speed errors of 10° and 0.2 m/s have been reduced to 0.2° and 0.06 m/s after applying the suggested method.

In this paper, we analyze the modulation scheme for high speed transmission in visible light communication system, and study non-orthogonal multiplexing, dimming level and transmission power ratio. Conventional visible light communication has a disadvantage in that it is difficult to multi-transmit to increase the transmission speed. Multi-transmission technique is necessary for high-speed transmission at the transmitter. Since general visible light communication has a limitation in multiple transmission, various researches for high-speed transmission have been conducted. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a multiple modulation scheme for high-speed visible light communication using non-orthogonal multiplex transmission scheme and a future research direction.

Although the object detection accuracy with still images has been significantly improved with the advance of deep learning techniques, the object detection problem with video data remains as a challenging problem due to the real-time requirement and accuracy drop with occlusion. In this research, we propose a method in pig detection for video monitoring environment. First, we determine a motion, from a video data obtained from a tilted-down-view camera, based on the average size of each pig at each location with the training data, and extract key frames based on the motion information. For each key frame, we then apply YOLO, which is known to have a superior trade-off between accuracy and execution speed among many deep learning-based object detectors, in order to get pig's bounding boxes. Finally, we merge the bounding boxes between consecutive key frames in order to reduce false positive and negative cases. Based on the experiment results with a video data set obtained from a pig farm, we confirmed that the pigs could be detected with an accuracy of 97% at a processing speed of 37fps.
