In this paper, we evaluate the performance of frame synchronization words of pilot bit patterns which are used for the channel estimation and frame synchronization confirmation in W-CDMA(Wide band Code Division Multiple Access) system. W-CDMA system also uses compressed mode to make measurements from another frequency without a full dual receiver terminal. It is confirmed by using computer simulation that the proposed frame synchronization words also maintain the frame synchronization property in the compressed mode by using the complementary mapping relationship of preferred pair ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) curves with probability of detection and false alarm are used to analized the performance of the proposed frame synchronization words by using the various detection metrics such as LLRT(Log Likelyhood Ratio Test), GLRT(Generalied Likelyhood Ratio Test), soft and hard correlation tests in AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels. It is expected that the research results fer the performance of pilot bit patterns of this paper can be useful reference for the design and implementation of frame synchronization in 3rd generation W-CDMA system.

This paper introduces development process and results of HF & UHF band(13.56 MHz, 920 MHz) tag antennas using a single-side printing method on a PE film. The size of tag antenna is designed in the area of $80mm{\times}50mm$, little bit smaller than a credit card. The UHF tag antenna, $76mm{\times}44mm$, is located at the outside of the card size tag antenna, and the HF tag antenna, $40 mm{\times}42 mm$, is located at the center of the UHF tag antenna. The UHF and HF tag antennas are designed with consideration of coupling effects. The single-side printing method with a jumper structure without using a via is used to make a loop antenna of HF tag antenna. The reading range of UHF tag antenna is about 6m, and the reading of HF tag antenna is about 5 cm. The designed tag antennas have long enough reading ranges for both bands. The tag is applicable to logistics and authentification.

We design a displaced-axis Gregorian dual antenna in the form of a metal reflectarray antenna for millimeter wave region, W-band. Unlike a reflectarray composed of printed patch antennas on a dielectric substrate, metallic rectangular waveguide unit-cells are proposed to avoid the loss of substrate and take an advantage of ease of typical metal machining fabrication. In this paper, the radiation characteristics of constructed metal reflectarray antennas show ultra high-gain antenna over 50 dBi at a target frequency in W-band. The experimental measurements are conducted in millimeter-wave compact range antenna measurement system.

In this paper, we propose a novel reconfigurable antenna that can change the electrical shape of the matching network using RF switches of PIN diodes. The designed antenna operates at two different modes that are Mode 1 (HSDPA band, 2.1~2.2 GHz) and Mode 2(WiBro WiFi band, 2.3~2.5 GHz). The antenna is built on both sides of a polyarcylate substrate. The measured reflection coefficient shows a matching bandwidth of 547 MHz($S_{11}$ <-3 dB, 2.035~2.582 GHz) for Mode 1 and 600 MHz($S_{11}$ <-3 dB, 2.2~2.8 GHz) for Mode 2, and it shows average vertical gains of -4.4 dBi and -4.5 dBi in x-y plane, respectively.

최근 서울, 부산, 울산 등에서 도시 돌발홍수가 빈번히 발생하고 있고 이에 따른 인명 손실 및 재산 피해가 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 그러나 집중 호우의 대부분은 저고도 대기에서 생성 및 발달되며, 소멸까지의 시간은 2-3 시간에 불과하여 기존의 우리나라 수문기상 관측시스템은 이러한 유형의 강우량 예측에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 기상, 재난 관련 정부 기관들이 저고도 수문기상 관측을 위한 도시형 X-밴드 레이더 네트워크 구축을 계획하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 그보다 선행하여 돌발성 수문기상 재해연구를 위해 한국건설기술연구원에서 도입한 X-band 이중 편파 레이더 시스템을 이용하여 보다 간단하고 정확한 재난 감시 및 예경보 시스템을 개발하는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 추정된 정량적 강수량을 모니터링 하여 도시 지역의 돌발홍수를 자동으로 경고하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 Google 어스 플랫폼을 사용하여 정확한 3D QPE-GIS 매칭 기법을 개발함으로써, 심각한 수문기상 현상이 발생하는 정확한 위치를 추적하고 직관적인 경보서비스를 가능케 한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 경보시스템은 레이더 데이터 분석도구, 위험결정 도구 및 위험경고 표시 도구의 세 가지 기술로 구성된다. 제안된 돌발홍수 경보시스템은, 시뮬레이션을 통해 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 정량적 강수량이 계산되며, GIS 상에서 레이더 반사도 및 강우강도가 3차원 이미지 형태로 표시된다. 그런 다음 Google 어스에서 3D 큐브 블록으로 대표되는 강수량이 동시에 누적표출 되도록 설계되었다. 또한 분석된 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 지역별 누적 강수량을 업데이트 및 모니터링하고 기 설정된 돌발홍수 발생 한계치(trigger)에 도달하면 홍수경보 메시지를 표시한다. 향후, 제안된 경보시스템에 대한 기술적 도구를 개선하면서 대규모 수문기상 레이더 네트워크로 광범위한 강우를 모니터링하면 전국적인 돌발홍수 경보시스템으로 확대가 가능하다.

The Fourier transform arteriography (FTA) exploits the periodic variation of arterial flow velociety of arterial flow velocity in stnchronized with cardiac cycles. This technique is intrinsically unique compared to other modern techniques. This technique separates the arteries from the veins using the pulsatile arterial flow without using the presaturation RF pulses. Therefore, it has less RF deposition and is free from the dark band artifacts that can arise from retrograde flow and curved arteries. Furthermore, it is free from the artifacts induced by eddy currents. However, there are some drawbacks such as a single projection view and the saturation of arteries at the end of an imaging slab. These drawbacks are circumvented by applying recently developed techniques. The fast gradient switching capability of modern MRI systems enabled us to incorporate dual projection views into the conventional FTA sequence without increasing the repetition time. In addition, signals from the distal arteries were enhanced by use of a ramped RF pulse and therefore the distal arteries were less saturated. By use of the FTA sequence with dual projection views and the ramped RF pulse, we acquired the sagittal and coronal projection views of femoral arteriograms simultaneously with more enhanced signals of distal arteries than the conventional FTA.

Frequency adjustable D-CRLH(dual-composite right/left handed) transmission lines, which solve the problem of design complexity and uncontrolled frequency of the existing structures, are proposed in this paper. The first design(type I), consisting of defected ground structure(DGS), island pattern in DGS, fixed stub and varactor diodes, controls $C_L$ in the parallel resonant circuit, while the second structure(type 2) composed of fixed DGS, shunt stub and diode adjusts $C_R$ in the series resonant circuit. The dual band frequency points which correspond to the meaningful electrical length of +/-90 degree in the RH/LH region are adjustable according to the bias voltage. The measurement shows that the LH frequency point which has -90 degree of electrical length are adjusted over $4.22{\sim}5.39\;GHz$ and $4.21{\sim}5.05\;GHz$ for type 1 and type 2, respectively, under $1{\sim}12\;V$ of bias voltage. In addition, the frequency Woo where RH turns over LH is controled over $3.26{\sim}4.22\;GHz$ for type 2 with the same bias condition.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for power device applications due to its wide band gap (3.26 eV for 4H-SiC), high critical electric field and excellent thermal conductivity. The Schottky barrier diode is the representative high-power device that is currently available commercially. A field plate edge-terminated 4H-SiC was fabricated using a lift-off process for opening the Schottky contacts. In this case, Ni/Ti dual-metal contacts were unintentionally formed at the edge of the Schottky contacts and resulted in the degradation of the electrical properties of the diodes. The breakdown voltage and Schottky barrier height (SBH, ${\Phi}_B$) was 107 V and 0.67 eV, respectively. To form homogeneous single-metal Ni/4H-SiC Schottky contacts, a deposition and etching method was employed, and the electrical properties of the diodes were improved. The modified SBDs showed enhanced electrical properties, as witnessed by a breakdown voltage of 635 V, a Schottky barrier height of ${\Phi}_B$=1.48 eV, an ideality factor of n=1.04 (close to one), a forward voltage drop of $V_F$=1.6 V, a specific on resistance of $R_{on}=2.1m{\Omega}-cm^2$ and a power loss of $P_L=79.6Wcm^{-2}$.

In this paper, we propose 1×2 array antenna with dual linear polarization characteristics for mmWave band operation. The proposed antenna is designed two microstirp feeding structure and FR-4 substrate, which is thickness 0.4 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.3. The size of 1×2 array antenna is 2.33 mm×2.33 mm, and total size of array antenna is 13.0 mm×6.90 mm. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 1.13 GHz (28.52~29.65 GHz) for port 1 and 1.08 GHz (28.45~29.53 GHz) for port 2 were obtained based on the impedance bandwidth. Cross polarization ratios are obtained from 7.68 dBi to 16.90 dBi in case of vertical polarization, and from 7.46 dBi to 15.97 dBi in case of horizontal polarization for input port 1, respectively. Also, cross polarization ratios are obtained from 8.59 dBi to 13.72 dBi in case of vertical polarization and from 9.03 dB to 14.0 dB in case of horizontal polarization for input port 2, respectively.
