FMI를 기반으로 하는 co-simulation의 마스터 알고리즘(MA)에서 시뮬레이션 결과의 정확도를 높이는 방법으로 zero crossing 포인트를 찾기 위한 Bisectional algorithm을 사용할 수 있다. 그러나 이 알고리즘은 많은 Rollback을 야기한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 제안하는 MA는 Bisection algorithm을 통해 zero crossing 포인트를 검출하면서도 반복되는 구간 그래프를 분석하여 그 값을 Markov chain을 적용하여 다음 구간을 예측하여 이를 step size에 적용한다. 시뮬레이션에서 실제 Rollback이 발생했을 때 그래프 형태별로 변화되는 step size를 배열로 저장하고, 이룰 다음 예측 구간에 적용함으로서 Rollback을 최소화하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존 알고리즘에 비해 최대 20% 이상의 시뮬레이션 시간이 감소되는 것을 확인하였다.

디지털 수신기의 타이밍 복원 방법 중, 영점교차검출을 이용하는 다양한 접근 방법이 알려져 있다. Gardner는 BPSK/QPSK 신호에 적합한 타이밍 복원 방법을 제안하였으나 이를 다중레벨 PAM 신호에 적용할 경우 자체잡음의 증가 때문에 다중레벨 PAM 신호에 사용하기 부적합하다. 본 논문에서는 Gardner 방법을 다중레벨 PAM신호에 적용하였을 경우 타이밍 지터의 증가로 인한 성능 저하 현상을 분석하고, 이를 해결하기 위한 타이밍 함수를 제안한다. 제안된 타이밍 함수는 다중레벨 PAM 신호가 천이할 때 영점을 교차하도록 주위의 신호를 사용하여 보정하였고 이에 의하여 타이밍 지터의 크기가 현저하게 감소되었다. 제안된 타이밍 함수의 이론적 성능 분석을 통해 타이밍 함수의 계수를 최적화하고, 전산 모의 실험에서 추가 대역폭(roll-off factor)과 SNR 등을 변화시키며 Gardner 방법과 제안된 방법의 성능을 비교한다.

The transient and synchronization behaviors of a TA (thermo acoustic) laser pair were investigated experimentally for various crossing angles and different separation distances between the laser openings. Sound waves generated by the lasers were measured and analyzed at or near the focusing point by means of microphones, SPL meters, and a commercial software called Signal-Express. The two TA lasers were acoustically coupled through the air mass between their openings, and the only mode-locking operation that could be achieved was the one that was nearly $180^{\circ}C$ out of phase. The time to achieve synchronization was found to be dependent upon the initial mistuning of the frequencies and the crossing angle between the laser axes. The synchronization process could also be accelerated by turning on the laser with the lower power input first.

Using a ray tracing simulation, we have investigated the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst phenomena of touch screen panels (TSPs) based on opaque metallic grids (square, hexagonal, and random grids). It is demonstrated that employing a random metal mesh is the most effective way to suppress the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst phenomena at the same time. At high crossing angles between metal mesh of TSPs and black matrix (BM) of displays, however, a random metal mesh brings in stronger moir${\acute{e}}$ phenomenon than a square metal mesh due to point defects. Though the square metal mesh suppresses the moir${\acute{e}}$ effect substantially at high crossing angles, yet it results in the strongest starburst patterns. We have also provided the simulation scheme that can capture the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst patterns observed experimentally and useful design guidelines for metal grids.

This paper presents a novel method for real-time malfunction detection of plasma etching process using EPD signal traces. First, many reference EPD signal traces are collected using monochromator and data acquisition system in normal etching processes. Critical points are defined by applying differentiation and zero-crossing method to the collected reference signal traces. Critical parameters such as intensity, slope, time, peak, overshoot, etc., determined by critical points, and frame attributes transformed signal-to symbol of reference signal traces are saved. Also, UCL(Upper Control Limit) and LCL(Lower Control Limit) are obtained by mean and standard deviation of critical parameters. Then, test EPD signal traces are collected in the actual processes, and frame attributes and critical parameters are obtained using the above mentioned method. Process malfunctions are detected in real-time by applying SPC(Statistical Process Control) method to critical parameters. the Real-time malfunction detection method presented in this paper was applied to actual processes and the results indicated that it was proved to be able to supplement disadvantages of existing quality control check inspecting or testing random-selected devices and detect process malfunctions correctly in real-time.

Grid synchronization is one of the key techniques for the grid-connected power converters used in distributed power generation systems. In order to achieve fast and accurate grid synchronization, a new phase locked loop (PLL) is proposed on the basis of the complex filter matrixes (CFM) orthogonal signal generator (OSG) crossing-decoupling method. By combining first-order complex filters with relation matrixes of positive and negative sequence voltage components, the OSG is designed to extract specific frequency orthogonal signals. Then, the OSG mathematical model is built in the frequency-domain and time-domain to analyze the spectral characteristics. Moreover, a crossing-decoupling method is suggested to decouple the fundamental voltage. From the eigenvalue analysis point of view, the stability and dynamic performance of the new PLL method is evaluated. Meanwhile, the digital implementation method is also provided. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by experiments under unbalanced and distorted grid voltage conditions.

Objective : This study was performed to determine the anatomical landmarks and optimal dissection points of the facial nerve (FN) and the hypoglossal nerve (HGN) in the submandibular region to provide guidance for hypoglossal-facial nerve anastomosis (HFNA). Methods : Twenty-nine specimens were obtained from 15 formalin-fixed adult cadavers. Distances were measured based on the mastoid process tip (MPT), common carotid artery bifurcation (CCAB), and the digastric muscle posterior belly (DMPB). Results : The shortest distance from the MPT to the stylomastoid foramen was $14.1{\pm}2.9$ mm. The distance from the MPT to the FN origin was $8.6{\pm}2.8$ mm anteriorly and $5.9{\pm}2.8$ mm superiorly. The distance from the CCAB to the crossing point of the HGN and the internal carotid artery was $18.5{\pm}6.7$ mm, and that to the crossing point of the HGN and the external carotid artery was $15.1{\pm}5.7$ mm. The distance from the CCAB to the HGN bifurcation was $26.6{\pm}7.5$ mm. The distance from the digastric groove to the HGN, which was found under the DMPB, was about $35.8{\pm}5.7$ mm. The distance from the digastric groove to the HGN, which was found under the DMPB, corresponded to about 65.5% of the whole length of the DMPB. Conclusion : This study provides useful information regarding the morphometric anatomy of the submandibular region, and the presented morphological data on the nerves and surrounding structures will aid in understanding the anatomical structures more accurately to prevent complications of HFNA.

The characteristics of flow around a single obstacle with fixed height and varied length and width are numerically investigated using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. As the obstacle length increases, flow distortion near the upwind side of the obstacle increases and the size of the recirculation zone behind the obstacle also increases. As the obstacle width increases, the size of the recirculation zone decreases, despite almost invariable flow distortion near the upwind side of the obstacle. Flow passing through an obstacle is separated, one part going around the obstacle and the other crossing over the obstacle. The size of the recirculation zone is determined by the distance between the obstacle and the point (reattachment point) at which both the flows converge. When the obstacle width is relatively large, flows are reattached at the obstacle surface and their recoveries occur. Resultant shortening of the paths of flows crossing over and going around decreases the size of the recirculation zone. To support this, the extent of flow distortion defined based on the change in wind direction is analyzed. The result shows that flow distortion is largest near the ground surface and decreases with height. An increase in obstacle length increases the frontal area fraction of flow distortion around the obstacle. In the cases of increasing the width, the frontal area fraction near the upwind side of the obstacle does not change much, but near the downwind side, it becomes larger as the width increases. The frontal area fraction is in a better correlation with the size of the recirculation zone than the building aspect ratios, suggesting that the frontal area fraction is a good indicator for explaining the variation in the size of the recirculation zone with the building aspect ratios.

A sensorless motor control scheme with conventional back-Electro Motive Force (EMF) sensing based on zero crossing point (ZCP) detection has been widely used in various applications. However, there are several problems with the conventional method for effectively driving sensorless brushless motors. For example, a phase mismatch of 30 degrees occurs between the ZCP and commutation time. Additionally, most of the motor speed/current controls are achieved based on a pulse width modulation (PWM) method, which generates significant noise that distracts the back-EMF sensing. Due to the PWM switching, the ZCP is not deterministic, and thus the efficiency of the motor is reduced because the phase transition points become uncertain. Moreover, the motor driving performance is degraded at a low speed range due to the effect of PWM noise. To solve these problems, an improved back-EMF detection method based on a differential line method is proposed in this paper. In addition, the proposed sensorless BLDC driver addresses the problems by using a variable voltage driver generated from a buck converter. The variable voltage driver does not generate the PWM switching noise. Consequently, the proposed sensorless motor driver improves 1) the signal-to-noise ratio of back-EMF, 2) the operation range of a BLDC motor, and 3) the torque characteristics. The proposed sensorless motor driver is verified through simulations and experiments.

이 논문에서는 인간 청각 시스템에 기반한 모음 개시 지점 (VOP) 탐지 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법을 통해 '지각의' 주파수 범위, 즉 선형 음향 주파수에서의 Mel Scale을 보여준 후 일련의 삼각 Mel-weighted Filter Bank를 만들어 인간의 청각 시스템에서 대역 필터링 기능을 시뮬레이션하였다. 이러한 비선형 임계 대역 Filter Bank는 데이터 차원수를 크게 감소시키고 비선형적으로 간격을 둔 Mel 스펙트럼에서 더욱 효과적으로 포먼트를 생성하기 위해 조파들의 영향을 제거해준다. Mel 스펙트럼의 첨두 에너지 합은 각 프레임의 특징으로 추출하고 에너지 진폭이 급격히 상승하기 시작할 때의 특성은 Gabor 윈도우를 사용하여 VOP로 탐지한다. 실험 결과를 통해서 다른 종류의 자음들과 연결된 12개의 모음들을 포함하는 한 단어 데이터베이스에 대한 제안된 방법의 평균 정확도는 단시간 에너지와 zero-crossing 비율에 기반을 둔 다른 모음 탐지 방법들보다 높은 72.73% 이상임을 확인하였다.
