  • 선량 크리프는 임상적 오류 중 하나로 검사자의 미숙 또는 부주의에 기인하여 발생하는 현상으로 AAPM Task Group #116에 의하면 디지털 방식의 시스템에서 지속적인 발생이 보고되고 있다. 이러한 현시점에서 선량 크리프 현상을 최소화할 뿐만 아니라 재현성 향상이 가능한 자동노출제어장치의 요구가 증가하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제작이 쉬울 뿐만 아니라 고효율 반도체 센서에 대한 연구를 수행함으로써 선량 크리프 현상을 저감할 수 있는 자동노출제어장치의 센서에 대하여 고찰하고자 하였다. 연구 수행 결과, 제작된 I형 센서 및 PIN형 센서의 경우 Ref 센서와 비교하면 광학적 특성이 우수하여 음영효과가 적게 나타날 것으로 사료되고, 대체로 낮은 민감도 특성이 나타나지만, 조사 조건 변화에 따른 일정한 추세를 가짐으로써 정확한 피드백 신호를 자동노출제어장치에 제공할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 곤충을 비롯한 많은 생물은 매질의 진동을 감지할 수 있는 다양한 감각기관을 이용하여 외부 교란을 감지하고 서로 통신하며 생명 유지활동을 하고 있다. 가장 가까이 접하는 진동유동의 대표적인 예로는 인체의 호흡을 들 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로제조 공정을 통해 메소스케일 저항식 감지소자, 특히 외팔보 형상의 유연 감지소자를 이용한 유량측정법을 제안하고, 무선통신을 이용한 유동측정 시스템화 및 휴대화의 가능성을 고찰하였다. 탄성계수가 낮은 기질재료를 사용함으로써 온 습도에 영향을 받지 않는 건강 진단용 호흡센서로서의 가능성 및 확장성을 확인하였다. 또한 유동감지 센서의 측정 데이터를 분석한 결과, 정밀성과 신뢰성은 마이크로 컨트롤러의 분해능, 노이즈 제거기술에도 의존하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 시스템에서 패킷 간의 최소 전송소요 시간은 약 16 ms로 나타났다.

  • As the result of the rapid development of IT technology, an on-line diagnostic system using the field bus communication network coupled with a smart sensor module will be widely used at the nuclear power plant in the near future. The smart sensor system is very useful for the prompt understanding of abnormal state of the key equipments installed in the nuclear power plant. In this paper, it is assumed that a smart sensor system based on the fieldbus communication network for the surveillance and diagnostics of safety-critical equipments will be installed in the harsh-environment of the nuclear power plant. It means that the key components of fieldbus communication system including microprocessor, FPGA, and ASIC devices, are to be installed in the RPV (reactor pressure vessel) and the RCS (reactor coolant system) area, which is the area of a high dose-rate gamma irradiation fields. Gamma radiation constraints for the DBA (design basis accident) qualification of the RTD sensor installed in the harsh environment of nuclear power plant, are typically on the order of 4 kGy/h. In order to use a field bus communication network as an ad-hoc diagnostics sensor network in the vicinity of the RCS pump area of the nuclear power plant, the robust survivability of IT-based micro-electronic components in such intense gamma-radiation fields therefore should be verified. An intelligent CCD camera system, which are composed of advanced micro-electronics devices based on IT technology, have been gamma irradiated at the dose rate of about 4.2kGy/h during an hour UP to a total dose of 4kGy. The degradation performance of the gamma irradiated CCD camera system is explained.

  • We have developed a noncontact temperature sensor using a silver halide optical fiber. The infrared collimator and focus head are connected both ends of a silver halide optical fiber with SMA connectors and used to collimate radiations of a heat source and to focus them to infrared sensors such as a pyroelectric sensor and a thermopile sensor, respectively. The relation ships between the temperatures of a heat source and the output signals of the infrared sensors are determined to measure the surface temperature of a heat source. The measurable temperature range is from 25 to $60^{\circ}C$. It is expected that a noncontact temperature sensor using a silver halide optical fiber can be developed for medical usages such as temperature monitoring during hyperthermia, cryosurgery, laser surgery and diagnostic procedure based on the results of this study.

  • This letter presents Progression-Preserving Projection, a dimension reduction technique that finds a linear projection that maps a high-dimensional sensor dataset into a two- or three-dimensional subspace with a particularly useful property for visual exploration. As a demonstration of its effectiveness as a visual exploration and diagnostic means, we empirically evaluate the proposed technique over a dataset acquired from our own virtual-reality-enhanced ball-intercepting training system designed to promote the upper extremity movement skills of individuals recovering from stroke-related hemiparesis.

  • To minimize the financial loss due to power facility malfunction, on-line diagnostic techniques are required to grasp any abnormal state of facilities in the live line as well as devices to diagnose abnormal states of power facility in an easy and prompt manner. This study aims to develop a portable UV detecting system by means of UV sensors for easier and efficient inspection of the degradation state of power facility in a long distance. Accordingly, it includes a simulation of corona discharges that may occur due to degradation of power facility and detection of ultraviolet pulse generation depending on the corona discharge intensity and measuring distance in application of UV sensors. Additionally, the optimal algorithm is determined for its application to the system's degradation diagnosis program based on the measured experiment data.

  • This paper presents a robust fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control method for the control systems in closed-loop affected by unknown inputs or disturbances. The fault diagnostic scheme is based on the disturbance-decoupled state estimation using a 2-stage state observer for state, actuator bias and sensor bias. The estimated bias show the occurrence time, location and type of the faults directly. The estimated state is used for state feedback to achieve fault tolerant control against the faults. Simulation results show that the method has definite fault tolerant ability against actuator and sensor faults, moreover, the faults can be detected on-line, isolated and estimated simultaneously.
