The differential fast neutron spectra above 0.5 Mev at particular spatial positions in tile reactor(TRIGA MARK-II) core has been determined experimentally using several threshold activation detectors. The series expansion technique utilizing the concept of least squares optimization was used to obtain an approximate solution to the set of integral equations which are defined by the experimentally determined activation data. The influence of use of different weighting functions in the solution was analyzed in each measurement. To carry out the necessary mathematical calculations, a computer code for the UNIVAC 1106 digital computer has been prepared. Good agreement was achieved between the differential fast neutron spectra determined in this work and the computed flux determined independently using space-independent multigroup transport theory.

In this paper, we designed a demodulator using proposed synchronization techniques and algorithms for high-speed ATM satellite burst modem, and analyzed various performance in the AWGN channel. In addition, as the preamble progressed, each synchronization process can be analyzed by using the mean and variance characteristics, and the convergence state and operation state using convergence probability can also be determined. In conclusion, we analyzed the Cell Loss Ratio(CLR) by integrating the burst acquisition with Unique Word(UW) detector performance, and verified that proposed TDMA receiver satisfied the generally required CLR performance adequately.

A novel sensing system for standing and moving human body using PIR(pyroelectric infrared) sensor was development. The system consists of power supply, interface circuit of PIR sensor, small stepping motor, and digital control. The detecting principle for stop human body is detecting the human body when the stepping motor sticking the PIR sensor and the fresnel lens has rotated by 180 degree at six second and has stopped the motor for no detecting signal of human body. We developed control algorism for proposed the detection system. The experimentation shows that the detector system had detected length and angle were 6m and 30 degree against as standing and moving human body with $37^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to verify the usefulness of X-ray simulator which uses a visible light source for further study. We developed a small experimental equipment which is composed of three main components - source, localizer and detector. Cartesian coordinate was set in 3D space, and the position of target was assumed the origin of the coordinate. The light from the source passes directly through the target, and projection image is formed on the screen, which can be taken with the digital camera. Since projection images were acquired behind the screen, they were flipped over right and left. By examining the characters of visual light source and equipments, it could be concluded that developed system was useful for experimental purpose.

A new type of digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) that employs a multilevel quantified timing error detector (TED) is proposed and analyzed under the assumption of negligible quantizing effect and no noise. Since the timing error is quantized uniformly, the TED has a linear characteristic. From the linear characteristic of TED, a first order difference equation describing the behavior of the loop is derived. Using the system equation, the loop is analyzed mathematically for phase step and frequency step input. Desired locking condition for the loop to be locked and the lock range for the DPLL's to achieve exact locking independently of initial conditions are ob-tained. And these analyses are confirmed by timing error plane plots and computer simulation.

The layout of electrical power distribution networks never involved communications aspects. As a result their transmission properties severly complicate the use as data links. Futhermore bandwidth as well as transmission power is restricted. Nevertheless, power distribution net works represent a most attractive medium for digital communication purposes due to an ever increasing demand, e.g., for environment management of buildings, office automation, and remote meter reading or security monitoring. In this paper, a power line modem which is capable of transmitting and receiving data at 1200 bps using OOK-BASK through 220V AC power lines is implemented. The receiver includes noncoherent detector and performs soft decision. The OLM circuits can be simplified by use of microprocessor. The PLM also satisfies CENELEC, European standards, and can be applied to home automation system.

Increasing numbers of photovoltaic arrays are being connected to the power utility through the power conditioning systems (PCS). This has raised potential problems of network protection. If, due to the action of the PCS, the local network voltage and frequency remain within regulatory limits when the utility is disconnected, then islanding is said to occur. In this paper, the representative methods to prevent the islanding are described and a PSIM-based model and analysis of the reactive power variation (RPV) method are presented. A novel phase detector using the all-pass filter and digital phase locked loop (DPLL) is proposed especially for the single-phase PCS. Finally, this paper provides the simulation and experimental results with a single-phase 3kW prototype PCS. Islanding test method of IEEE Std. 929-2000 was performed for verification.

During normal machine operation, partial discharge(PD) measurements were performed with turbine generator analyzer(TGA) in two high voltage motors. Two 6.6kV motors were installed with 80pF capacitive couplers at the terminal box. The PD patterns were displayed two dimensional and three dimensional. TGA summarizes each plot with two quantifies such as the normalized quantity number(NQN) and the peak PD magnitude(Qm). Off-line PD measurements were conducted on one 4.16kV motor. The motor was energized to 2.4kV, 3.0kV, 3.5kV and 4.16kV, respectively. The PD levels in pC were measured with a conventional digital PD detector. The comparison of positive to negative PD indicates whether the defect elements of PD are within the insulation or on the insulation surface. Discharge at conductor surface was discovered in No. 1 motor. Internal discharges were generated in phase A, B and C of No. 2 motor, Slot discharges occurred in three phases of No. 3 motor.

The key to model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) algorithms for transmission computed tomography lies in the ability to accurately model the data formation process from the emitted photons produced in the transmission source to the measured photons at the detector. Therefore, accurately modeling the system matrix that accounts for the data formation process is a prerequisite for MBIR-based algorithms. In this work we compared quantitative performance of the three representative ray-driven methods for calculating the system matrix; the ray-tracing method (RTM), the distance-driven method (DDM), and the strip-area based method (SAM). We implemented the ordered-subsets separable surrogates (OS-SPS) algorithm using the three different models and performed simulation studies using a digital phantom. Our experimental results show that, in spite of the more advanced features in the SAM and DDM, the traditional RTM implemented in the OS-SPS algorithm with an edge-preserving regularizer out-performs the SAM and DDM in restoring complex edges in the underlying object. The performance of the RTM in smooth regions was also comparable to that of the SAM or DDM.

In this paper, phase noise analysis result for 2.4 GHz PLL(phase locked loop) using SPD(sample phase detector) is proposed. It can be used for high performance frequency synthesizer's LO(local oscillator) to extend output frequency range or for LO of offset PLL to reduce a division rate or for clock signal of DDS(direct digital synthesizer). Before manufacturing, theoretical estimation of PLL's phase noise performance should be performed. In order to calculate phase noise of PLL using SPD, Leeson model is used for modeling phase noise of VCO(voltage controlled oscillator) and OCXO(ovened crystal oscillator). After theoretically analyzing phase noise of PLL, optimized loop filter bandwidth was determined. And then, phase noise of designed loop filter was calculated to find suitable OP-Amp. Also, the calculated result of phase noise was compared with the measured one. The measured phase noise of PLL was -130 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz.
