Although the cut-off probe, a precise measurement method for the electron density, is widely used in the industry, the physics on the wave spectrum of the cut-off is not understood yet, only cut-off point frequency containing the information of electron density has been analyzed well. This paper analyzes the microwave frequency spectrum of the cut-off probe to see the physics behind using both microwave field simulation (CST Microwave Studio) and simplified circuit simulation. The result shows that the circuit model well reproduces the cut-off wave spectrum especially in the low frequency regime where the wavelength of the driving frequency is larger than the characteristic length and reveals the physics of transmission characteristics with frequency as resonances between vacuum, plasma and sheath. Furthermore, by controlling the time domain in solver of the microwave simulator, the cut-off like transmission peaks above the cut-off frequency which has been believed as cavity effect is verified as chamber geometry effect. The result of this paper can be used as the basis for the improvement of cut-off probe.

In the mixed layer when the frequency approaches the cut-off frequency for the first mode of notmalmode theory, sound ceases to be trapped. Based on the data of surface sound velocities abtained during the period of 16 years in the Sea of Japan. A new cut-off frequency coefficient in the surface duct that will determine the miximum wave length for duct transimission of underwater sound has been calculated.

영상재구성에 있어 잡음(noise)을 제거하고 공간 분해능과 대조도 분해능을 향상시킬 수 있는 filter에서 cut off 주파수 level에 따라 영상의 질에 영향을 미치는 경향을 반폭치(FWHM : full width at half maximum)측정방법을 이용하여 비교하였다. 선택한 filter의 종류는 Band-limited, Sheep-logan, Sheep-logan Hanning, Generalized Hamming, Low pass cosine, Parazen, 그리고 Butterworth filter이다. SPECT 영상을 기록하기 위한 점선원(point source)으로 방사성의약품 $^{99m}TcO_4$을 이용하였으며 점선원에 대하여 각각의 filter에서 cut off 주파수 준위별로 영상을 기록하고 axial transverse, coronal sagittal... fh의 section image의 profile 곡선에서 반폭치을 측정하여 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 filter들에 있어서는 cut off level에 따라 X, Y, 그리고 Z축 방향으로의 평균 FWHM의 길이가 $9.16\;mm{\sim}18.14\;mm$까지 측정되었는데 cut off level 0.7에서 Generalized Hamming filter와 Band limited filter의 경우 9.16 mm로 반폭치의 길이가 제일 짧은 것으로 나타났다.

A fully differential RC calibrator for accurate cut-off frequency of a programmable channel selection filter is proposed. The proposed RC calibrator consists of an RC timer, clock generator, synchronous counter, digital comparator, and control block. To verify the proposed RC calibrator, a six-order Chebyshev programmable low-pass filter with adjustable 3 dB cut-off frequency, which is controlled by the proposed RC calibrator, was implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The channel selection filter with the proposed RC calibrator draws 1.8 mA from a 1.8 V supply voltage and the measured 3 dB cut-off frequencies of the channel selection LPF is controlled accurately by the RC calibrator.

It is investigated the cut-off frequency of Z-cut quartz microstrip low pass filter by the variation of applied electric field. Designed microstrip filter was simulated using the Ensemble v7.0(Ansoft). As a result of the experiment, the cut-off frequency showed 50 MHz shift when the applied electric field was 3 kV/cm.

This paper reports a filtered velocity feedback(FVF) controller, which is an alternative to direct velocity feedback(DVFB) controller. The instability problems due to high frequency response under DVFB can be alleviated by the suggested FVF controller. The FVF controller is designed to filter out the unstable high frequency response. The FVF controller and the dynamics of clamped beams under forces and moments are first formulated. The effects of the design parameters(cut-off frequency, gain, and damping ratio) on the stability and the performance are then investigated. The cut-off frequency should be selected not to affect the system stability. The magnitude of the open loop transfer function(OLTF) at the cut-off frequency should be small. As increasing the gain of the FVF controller, the magnitude of the OLTF is increased, so that the closed loop response can be reduced more. The enhancement of the OLTF at the cut-off frequency is reduced but the phase behavior around the cut-off frequency is distorted, as the damping ratio is increased. The control performance is finally estimated for the clamped beam. More than 10 dB reductions in velocity response can be achieved at the modal frequencies from the first to eighth modes.

A thermal-hydraulic system code is an essential tool for the design and safety analysis of a nuclear power plant, and its accuracy quantification is very important for the code assessment and applications. The fast Fourier transform-based method (FFTBM) by signal mirroring (FFTBM-SM) has been used to quantify the accuracy of a system code by using a comparison of the experimental data and the calculated results. The method is an improved version of the FFTBM, and it is known that the FFTBM-SM judges the code accuracy in a more consistent and unbiased way. However, in some applications, unrealistic results have been obtained. In this study, it was found that accuracy quantification by FFTBM-SM is dependent on the frequency spectrum of the fast Fourier transform of experimental and error signals. The primary objective of this study is to reduce the frequency dependency of FFTBM-SM evaluation. For this, it was proposed to reduce the cut off frequency, which was introduced to cut off spurious contributions, in FFTBM-SM. A method to determine an appropriate cut off frequency was also proposed. The FFTBM-SM with the modified cut off frequency showed a significant improvement of the accuracy quantification.

전산화단층촬영(CT)에 있어서 생기는 artifact를 제거하기 위해서 영상재구성 과정에 다양한 필터를 사용하고 있다. 이러한 artifact는 영상재구성 과정에 사용되는 수학적 오차와, 투영이미지와 실제 해부학적 구조간의 오차, 혹은 데이터 획득과정에서의 오차 등으로 인해 필연적으로 생길 수 밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 Hann필터를 사용하였을 때 CT 영상에서의 artifact 제거효과를 정량적으로 분석하였다. Cut-off 주파수가 0.1인 경우에서 0.2씩 증가시키며 0.9까지에 대한 다양한 cut-off 주파수의 Hann필터에 대한 artifact제거 효과에 대한 결과를 보였다. 재구성 영상에서의 artifact에 대한 정량적 분석을 위해서 white image에 대한 CT 영상의 Noise Power Spectrum을 비교하였다.

This paper presents the output filter design and the output characteristic analysis by cut-off frequency set up of the LCR filter on NPC multi-level inverter with trap-filter. The single-phase NPC three-level inverter operates at low switching frequency. The proposed LC trap filter is comprised of a conventional LCR output filter, by using LC trap filter the need for high damping resistor and low LC cut-off frequency is eliminated. Also. low damping resistor is increased the output filter system. The multilevel inverter system used NPC type inverter in proper system for high power application and controller is used DSP(TMS320C31). The effectiveness of proposed system confirmed the validity through SPICE simulation and experimental results.
