  • Current black boxes have a problem of storing unnecessary imagery data recordings without data classification. For this reason, users have to erase videos every time. This method is inadequate for black boxes with limited memory capacity. In this paper, we design and implement a system that recognizes traffic accident situations and saves these recordings by classifying them according to weighted values. The system was made to save video recorded at a 30-sec interval of every event to black box folders by changing names based on weighted value data under the external environment in a 1:10 scale model car. Based on this, when the tests were performed as a major car accident while driving, the videos were created in w2 folder, and when the tests were performed as a minor car accident while stopped, the videos were created in w1 folder.

  • We are developing a portable multipurpose gamma counting and imaging probe that will be useful for many applications in nuclear medicine including radioimmunoguided surgery in the detection and treatment of malignant tumors. Any diagnostic information provided by CT, MRI, PET, SPECT or gamma camera imaging prior to surgery obviously is very important, but current techniques are limited in many instances. To overcome some of these limitations, the portable multipurpose gamma probe is being developed. The gamma probe consists of NaI(Tl) crystal with 1" dia $\times$ 0.5" thick and singlechannel photomultiplier tube (SC-PMT) for counting, and 3" dia $\times$ 0.375" and multichannel photomultiplier tube (MC-PMT) for imaging, nuclear instrument module (NIM), position circuits, interface, and PC. The energy resolution using Tc-99m was measured as 14% and the spatial resolution using 3mm dia green LED was measured as 2.9mm. These priliminary results indicate that the currently developing probe is very promising and could be very useful for many applications in nuclear medicine.

  • Among biometrics commercialized for security, iris recognition technology has the most excellent security for the probability of the match between individuals is the lowest. Current commercialized iris recognition technology has excellent recognition ability, but this technology has a fatal drawback. Without the user's active cooperation, it cannot recognize the iris correctly. To make up for this weakness, recent trend of iris recognition development mounts a non-volunteering, unconstrained method. According to this information, the objective of this research is developing a module that can identify people iris from a video acquired by high performance infrared camera in a range of 3m and in a involuntary way. For this, we import images from the video and find people's face and eye positions from the images using Haar classifier trained through Cascade training method. finally, we crop the iris by Hough circle transform and compare it with data from the database to identify people.

  • Degradation is commonly observed in field-aged PV modules due to corrosion of the photovoltaic ribbon. The reduced performance is caused by a loss of fill factor due to the high series resistance in the PV ribbon. This study aimed to mitigate the degradation by corrosion using five sacrificial anodes - Al, Zn and their alloys - to identify the most effective material to mitigate the corrosion of the PV ribbon. The corrosion behavior of the five sacrificial anode materials were examined by open circuit potential measurements, potentiodynamic polarization tests, and galvanic current density and potential measurements using a zero resistance ammeter. Immersion tests for 120 hours were also conducted using materials and damp heat test tests were performed for 1500 hours using 4 cell mini modules. The Al-3Mg and Al-3Zn-1Mg sacrificial anodes had a low corrosion rate and reduced drop in power, making then suitable for long-term use.

  • Power MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) are widely used in power electronics applications, such as BLDC (Brushless Direct Current) motor and power module, etc. For the conventional power MOSFET device structure, there exists a tradeoff relationship between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. In order to overcome the tradeoff relationship, a non-uniform super-junction (SJ) trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure for an optimal design is proposed in this paper. It is required that the specific on-resistance of non-uniform SJ TMOSFET is less than that of uniform SJ TMOSFET under the same breakdown voltage. The idea with a linearly graded doping profile is proposed to achieve a much better electric field distribution in the drift region. The structure modelling of a unit cell, the characteristic analyses for doping density, and potential distribution are simulated by using of the SILVACO TCAD 2D device simulator, Atlas. As a result, the non-uniform SJ TMOSFET shows the better performance than the uniform SJ TMOSFET in the specific on-resistance at the class of 100V.

  • This paper presents a S/C/X-band LNA MMIC with resistive feedback structure in 0.25 um GaN HEMT process. The GaN devices have advantages as a high output power device having high breakdown voltage, energy band gap and stability at high temperature. Since the receiver using the GaN device with high linearity can be implemented without a limiter, the noise figure of the receiver can be improved and the size of receiver module can be reduced. The proposed GaN LNA MMIC based on 0.25 um GaN HEMT device is achieved the gain of > 15 dB, the noise figure of < 3 dB, the input return loss of > 13 dB, and the output return loss of > 8 dB in the S/C/X-band. The current consumption of GaN LNA MMIC is 70 mA with the drain voltage 20 V and the gate voltage -3 V.

  • The military has been putting great efforts into applying data communication on existing voice communication systems being used in NCW(Network Centric Warfare). Data communication will be an effective choice in one of many effort to yield a minimum kill chain, comparing to legacy voice communications, when tactical units conduct their missions. However, the required budget will be enormous, in case of the replacement of a lot of legacy communication systems with new one. As a cost-effective alternative, the tactical data communication systems using the conventional radio systems instead of the development of new radio systems has been proposed. It is mandatory, though, to ensure QoS while maintaining data communication by making use of legacy radio systems already in use. This paper focuses on the performance issues experimented and analyzed for tactical data communication through the legacy radio systems as the first step towards guaranteed QoS. We have conducted various experiments such as the transmission error rate on certain tactical messages, performance evaluation of redundant transfers, the relationship between the transmission frame size and rate of error, the identification of error points in the transmission frame, and techniques to reduce the errors in both hopping and non-hopping modes. As a result of the performance experiments, The adaptive communication module which decides the redundant transmission or the Forward Error Correction(FEC) technique by analyzing channel status and current transmission status(hopping/non-hopping) of the legacy radio should be designed. the FEC technique in non-hopping, and the redundant transmission technique in hopping mode was recommended from the result of experiment with the frame size is 20bytes in non-hopping and 10Bytes frame size in hopping mode.

  • We propose an effective packet marking algorithm for video streaming in DiffServ network. Because legacy packet markers such as srTCM(single rate three color marker) cannot distinguish the importance of packet, these markers can cause quality degradation of streaming during the network congestion period. Recently proposed TMS (Two Marker System) [4] shows effectiveness in such scenario that video streaming service is struggling with other types of service traffic. However, if many video streaming services co-exist in DiffServ network and result in competition among themselves, then both legacy packet markers and even TMS cannot prevent drastic streaming quality degradation. To cope with this, we suggest A-TCPM (Adaptive time sliding window Three Color Marker) algorithm. In this algorithm, an A-TCPM module decides the color of a racket based upon the probability which is lead by current channel status and frame importance ratio. Simulation results show that proposed A-TCPM algorithm can enhance streaming service quality especially when overbooked video streaming sessions struggle with themselves.
