클래딩 지름이 다른 광섬유 브래그 격자를 용융 접착하여 스트레인과 온도를 분리하여 측정할 수 있는 센서를 구성하였다. 굵기차에 의해서 스트레인에 대한 각 브래그 파장 변화량은 서로 다르며, 동일한 모재(perform)에서 생산된 광섬유를 사용하였으므로 온도에 대한 파장 변화량은 같았다. 두 브래그 파장의 변화량을 측정하고 잘 정의된 행렬함수에 대입하여, 가해진 스트레인과 온도의 양을 분리하여, 계산할 수 있었다. 0-1500 .mu.strain, 20-100.deg. C 범위의 스트레인과 온도 변화를 가하면서 제작된 센서의 특성을 관측하였고, 브래그 파장 변화를 측정하여 계산한 결과, 온도계와 마이크로미터 값에 비하여 10% 이내의 측정오차를 얻을 수 있었다. 스트레인의 측정 정일도를 높이기 위해서 일정한 광경로차를 갖는 마하젠더 간섭계를 이용하여 두 격자의 상대 파장변화를 간섭 신호의 크기변화로 변환하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였으며, 시스템을 구축하여 실험한 결과로 온도에 무관하게 분광분석기에 비항 80배 이상 향상된 스트레인 측정 정밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.

In this paper, an energy-efficient 11.49-bit successive approximation register (SAR) capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC) for capacitive sensors with a figure of merit (FoM) of 31.6 pJ/conversion-step is presented. The CDC employs a SAR algorithm to obtain low power consumption and a simplified structure. The proposed circuit uses a capacitive sensing amplifier (CSA) and a dynamic latch comparator to achieve parasitic capacitance-insensitive operation. The CSA adopts a correlated double sampling (CDS) technique to reduce flicker (1/f) noise to achieve low-noise characteristics. The SAR algorithm is implemented in dual operating mode, using an 8-bit coarse programmable capacitor array in the capacitance-domain and an 8-bit R-2R digital-to-analog converter (DAC) in the charge-domain. The proposed CDC achieves a wide input capacitance range of 29.4 pF and a high resolution of 0.449 fF. The CDC is fabricated in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ 1P6M complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process with an active area of 0.55 mm2. The total power consumption of the CDC is $86.4{\mu}W$ with a 1.8-V supply. The SAR CDC achieves a measured 11.49-bit resolution within a conversion time of 1.025 ms and an energy-efficiency FoM of 31.6 pJ/step.

고온, 고압의 원자력 배관 누설 판별을 위해 음향방출기법(AE)을 이용한 누설감지 시스템인 ALMS 기법이 적용되고 있다. 이 시스템은 단지 AE 센서로 전해진 신호의 RMS값을 이용하여 누설의 유무만을 판단할 뿐, 누설 발생시 누설부의 크기나 형태를 평가하는 것에는 어려움이 있었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 AE센서와 가속도센서를 동시에 이용한 이중 센서 시스템을 제안하였다. 빠른 학습 속도와 정확성을 위해 Levenberg-Marquardt 학습 알고리즘을 이용한 인공신경회로망을 적용시키고, 이를 통해 신뢰성 있는 분석 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 배관내 압력과 누설부의 크기와 모양에 따른 실험신호들을 학습시키고 그 판별 정확성을 확인하였다. 추가적으로 배관 두께에 따라 발생하는 파(wave)의 종류와 특성이 달라지는 것을 이론과 실험을 통하여 알아보았다.

Four programs, i.e. TRMM, ADEOS2, ASTER, and ALOS are going on in Japanese Earth Observation programs. TRMM and ASTER are operating well, and TRMM operation will be continued to 2009. ADEOS2 was failed, but AMSR-E on Aqua is operating. ALOS (Advanced Land Observing Satellite) was successfully launched on $24^{th}$ Jan. 2006. ALOS carries three instruments, i.e., PRISM (Panchromatic Remote Sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping), AVNIR-2 (Advanced Visible and Near Infrared Radiometer), and PALSAR (Phased Array L band Synthetic Aperture Radar). PRISM is a 3 line panchromatic push broom scanner with 2.5m IFOV. AVNIR-2 is a 4 channel multi spectral scanner with 10m IFOV. PALSAR is a full polarimetric active phased array SAR. PALSAR has many observation modes including full polarimetric mode and scan SAR mode. After the unfortunate accident of ADEOS2, JAXA still have plans of Earth observation programs. Next generation satellites will be launched in 2008-2012 timeframe. They are GOSAT (Greenhouse Gas Observation Satellite), GCOM-W and GCOM-C (ADEOS-2 follow on), and GPM (Global Precipitation Mission) core satellite. GOSAT will carry 2 instruments, i.e. a green house gas sensor and a cloud/aerosol imager. The main sensor is a Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) and covers 0.76 to 15 ${\mu}m$ region with 0.2 to 0.5 $cm^{-1}$ resolution. GPM is a joint project with NASA and will carry two instruments. JAXA will develop DPR (Dual frequency Precipitation Radar) which is a follow on of PR on TRMM. Another project is EarthCare. It is a joint project with ESA and JAXA is going to provide CPR (Cloud Profiling Radar). Discussions on future Earth Observation programs have been started including discussions on ALOS F/O.

The cbb3 cytochrome c oxidase has the dual function as a terminal oxidase and oxygen sensor in the photosynthetic bacterium, Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The cbb3 oxidase forms a signal transduction pathway together with the PrrBA two-component system that controls photosynthesis gene expression in response to changes in oxygen tension in the environment. Under aerobic conditions the cbb3 oxidase generates an inhibitory signal, which shifts the equilibrium of PrrB kinase/phosphatase activities towards the phosphatase mode. Photosynthesis genes are thereby turned off under aerobic conditions. The catalytic subunit (CcoN) of the R. sphaeroides cbb3 oxidase contains five histidine residues (H2l4, B233, H303, H320, and H444) that are conserved in all CcoN subunits of the cbb3 oxidase, but not in the catalytic subunits of other members of copper-heme superfamily oxidases. H214A mutation of CcoN affected neither catalytic activity nor sensory (signaling) function of the cbb3 oxidase, whereas H320A mutation led to almost complete loss of both catalytic activity and sensory function of the cbb3 oxidase. H233V and H444A mutations brought about the partial loss of catalytic activity and sensory function of the cbb3 oxidase. Interestingly, the H303A mutant form of the cbb3 oxidase retains the catalytic function as a cytochrome c oxidase as compared to the wild-type oxidase, while it is defective in signaling function as an oxygen sensor. H303 appears to be implicated in either signal sensing or generation of the inhibitory signal to the PrrBA two-component system.

In this paper, a new architecture of operating software associated with the component-based method is proposed. The proposed architecture comprises 문 execution module and a decision-making module. In order to make effective development and maintenance, the execution module is divided into three components. The components are referred to as Symbol, Gateway, and Control, respectively: The symbol component is for the GUI environments and the standard interfaces; the gateway component is for the network communication and the structure of asynchronous processes; the control component is for the asynchronous processing and machine setting or operations. In order to verify the proposed architecture, and off-line version of operating software is made, and its steps are as follows; I) Make virtual execution modules for the manufacturing devices such as dual-arm robot, handling robot, CNC, and sensor; ii) Make decision-making module; iii) Integrate the modules and GUI using a well-known development tools such as Microsofts Visual Basic; iv) Execute the overall operating software to validate the proposed architecture. The proposed software architecture in this paper has the advantages such as independent development of each module, easy development of network communication, and distributed processing of resources, and so on.

The position of the rotor in a spherical motor is usually measured by encoders. When using a encoder, It is possible to measure the angle in a very high resolution. However it is limited to measure a single-DOF using one encoder. So it is required to use 3 encoders to measure a 3-DOF. In order to connect the encoder and the motor, an additional mechanic linkages. Because of these reasons, it is difficult to apply it in various systems. Where the friction and inertia is increased when operating the motor. It could cause a negative effect in dynamic characteristic. In this paper present dual-image sensing system capable of measuring 3-DOF motions in real time eliminating the mechanical linkages. In addition we offer methods of converting sensors outputs to rotation angle which is used in the controller.

In this paper proposed the solar tracking system to use a fuzzy based on PC in order to increase an output of the PV array. The solar tracking system operated two DC motors driving by signal of photo sensor. The control of dual axes is not an easy task due to nonlinear dynamics and unavailability of the parameters. The fuzzy control made a nonlinear dynamics to well perform and had a robust and highly efficient characteristic about a parameter variable as well as a nonlinear characteristic. In this paper designed a fuzzy controller for improving output of PV array and evaluated comparison with efficient of conventional PI controller. The data which were obtained by experiment were able to show a validity of the proposed controller.

For the measurement of liquid level in ship's cargo tank, ballast tank, fuel oil tank and fresh water tank, several types of gauge meter are used such as tubular type, magnetic float type, reflex type transparent type and welding pad type. Among them, magnetic float type gauge meter is environmental friendly device because it is free of power source and maintenance. The main obstacle of the device is relatively large error bound. In this paper, finite element method is used to design and analysis of the magnetic float type gauge meter. The operation of reed switch according to the magnetic field has been successfully described and agreed well with experimental measurement. The optimum geometry with combination of permanent magnet and reed switches are designed to achieve 98 % accuracy of fluid level.
