In this paper, we deal with performance evaluation of visual path following using 2D and 3D information. Visual path follow first teaches driving path by selecting milestone images then follows the same route by comparing the milestone image and current image. We follow the visual path following algorithm of [8] and [10]. In [8], a robot navigated with 2D image information only. But in [10], local 3D geometries are reconstructed between the milestone images in order to achieve fast feature prediction which allows the recovery from tracking failures. Experimental results including diverse indoor cases show performance of each algorithm.

This paper presents the novel design of circular polarized Ka-band horn array antenna. The element antenna of the arrya is composed of two parts, microstrip patch and square horn, and the microstrip patch is fed by corner truncated microstrip patch for circular polarization. The patch antenna has the role of a feeder and polarizer of the horn, thus the whole size of the horn antennae can be considerably reduced. The $1{\times}8$ horn array was designed and fabricated by the spacing of $0.9{\lambda}_0$ among the element horn. The element horn has typical gain of 8dBi and axial-ratio bandwidth of 4.9% at 3dB, and the minimum gain and axial-ratio bandwithd of the array is 14dBi and 8.2%.

This study investigated sediment oxygen consumption rates and geochemical characteristics of sediment in hypoxic area of the Gamak Bay based on the chamber experiments and geochemical analyses. The organic carbon contents of surface sediment in the Gamak Bay showed that the inner bay area has higher organic carbon content than those of the outer bay. They toward the outer bay, contents dropped off. The vertical profiles of calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$) content at piston core sediment assumed that the hypoxia have been frequently occurred during past century in the northern inner bay. The benthic chamber experiments were conducted in February, May, August and November 2010, 2011 in the hypoxic area of the Gamak Bay. In the sediment incubation experiment with chamber at site C3 in the northern inner bay and site C17 in the southern outer bay, the sediment oxygen consumption rate ranged from $3.98mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ to $12.43mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ and $3.28mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ to $8.18mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$, respectively. When the oxygen was completely depleted, the toxic hydrogen sulfide was released with $1.38mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ and $1.3mmol\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$, respectively.

A common drain feedback CMOS wideband LNA with current bleeding and input inductive series-peaking techniques is presented in this paper. DC coupling is adopted between cascode and feedback amplifiers, so that the gain and NF of the LNA can be dynamically controlled by adjusting the bleeding current. The fabricated LNA shows the bandwidth of 2.5 GHz. The high gain mode shows 17.5 dB gain with $1.7{\sim}2.8\;dB$ NF and consumes 27 mW power and the low gain mode has 14 dB gain with $2.7{\sim}4.0\;dB$ NF and dissipates 1.8 mW from 1.8 V supply.

Phytochemical studies on the whole extract of Sedum hybridum L., a Mongolian medicinal plant, has been undertaken to isolate active principles responsible for its anti-oxidative and antibacterial activities. Eighteen known compounds, i.e. (1) quercetin, (2) kaempferol, (3) herbacetin-8-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranoside, (4) myricetin, (5) gossypetin-8-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranoside, (6) gallic acid, (7) 2,4,6-tri-O-galloyl-D-glucopyranose, (8) 6-O-galloylarbutin, (9) myricetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranoside, (10) quercetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranoside, (11) caffeic acid, (12) ethylgallate, (13) (-) epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate, (14) palmitic acid, (15) stearic acid, (16) stearic acid ethyl ether, (17) ${\beta}$-sitosterol and (18) ${\beta}$-sitosteryl-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranose have been isolated and their molecular structures identified by spectroscopic analysis. Thirteen substances including seven flavonol components (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9 and 10), five gallic acid derivatives (6, 7, 8, 12 and 13) and caffeic acid (11) exhibited significant, dose-dependent, DPPH radical scavenging activity. Galloyl esters 12 and 13 were revealed to be main active principles for the antibacterial property of the extract of Sedum hybridum L.

When we apply the LDPC code for high density optical storage channel, it is necessary to make an algorithm that the modulation code decoder must feed the LDPC decoder soft-valued information because LDPC decoder exploits soft values using the soft input. Therefore, we propose the soft-input soft-output run-length limited 17PP decoding algorithm and compare performance of LDPC codes. Consequently, we found that the proposed soft-input soft-output decoding algorithm using 17PP is 0.8dB better than the soft-input soft-output decoding algorithm using (1, 7) RLL.

Local heat transfer coefficients were measured on semi-cylinders on which a circular water jet impinged in crossflow. The ratio of the semi-cylinder's diameter and the nozzle outlet diameter were varied parametrically, as were the Reynolds number and the supplementary water heights. The measurements showed that the circumferential distribution of the heat transfer coefficient peaked at the stagnation point. For a fixed supplementary water height, the peak heat transfer coefficient was not depend on the curvature of test specimen(d/D). Optimum height of supplementary water which brought about the augmentation of heat transfer at the stagnation point was S/D=1. The Nusselt number decreased as the circumferential distance or angle increased. The circumferential distribution of dimensionless heat transfer (Nu/Nus) was independent of d/D ($d/D{\geq}8.33$), but for the d/D<8.33, it was depended on d/D. At a fixed angle of specimen, dimensionless heat transfer (Nu/Nus) decreased as the ratio d/D increased. The extent of the decrease between d/D=6.67 and 8.33 was markedly greater than that between d/D=8.33 and 10, or d/D=10 and 11.67.

In this paper, we have designed a 2 stage MMIC power amplifier which has flat gains of in-band and reasonable out-band cutoff characteristics using 0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ MESFET libra교 of ETRI. For the 1st stave, we obtaind P$_{1dB}$ of 9.2 dBm and gain 10.8 dB using 6 finger D-MESFET and P$_{1dB}$ of 18.4 dBm and gain of 10.8 dB using 14 finger D-MESFET for the 2nd stage, which is power matched using LIBRA's embedded TUNER. Also in-band gain flatness and out-band cutoff characteristics are obtained by attaching LC tank in the output matching circuit. The designed 2 stage MMIC power amplifier has bandwidth of 0.95～2.8 GHz, gain of 20 dB and P$_{1dB}$of 17.2 dBm. Especially gain flatness of $\pm$0.8dB was obtained in 1.8～2.5 GHz frequency ranges. And chip size is 1.4$\times$1.4 mm..4 mm.

D-Xylose isomerase produced by Lactococcus sp. JK-8, isolated from kimchi, was purified 17-fold of homogeneity, and its physicochemical properties were determined. Although the N-terminal amino acid sequence of D-xylose isomerase was analysed to Ala-Tyr-Phe-Asn-Asp-Ile-Ala-Pro-Ile-Lys, it was not similar to that of Lactobacillus enzyme. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 180 kDa by gel filtration, 45 kDa by SDS-PAGE and the enzyme was homotetramer. The optimum pH of the enzyme was around 7 and stable between pH 6 and 8. The optimum reaction temperature was 7$0^{\circ}C$ and stable up to 7$0^{\circ}C$ in the presence of 1 mM $Mn^{2+}$. Like other D-xylose isomerases, this enzyme required divalent cation, such as $Mg^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, or $Mn^{2+}$ for the activity and thermostability. $Mn^{2+}$was the best activator. Substrate specificity studies showed that this enzyme was highly active on D-xylose. The enzyme had an isoelectric point of 4.8, and fm values for D-xylose was 5.9 mM.
