홍삼은 외부형태 및 내부조직품질에 의하여 등급이 분류되고, 3등급이하의 홍삼은 본삼으로 판매하지 않는다. 또한 등급에 따라 가격차이가 매우 큼으로 저급홍삼에 고급홍삼이 혼입되면 경제적 손실이 발생하고, 고급 등급의 홍삼에 하위등급의 홍삼이 혼입되면 클레임이 발생된다. 현재 슬${\hat{e}}{\ddot{u}}$을 이용한 육안검사는 검사자에 따라 기준이 통일되기 어렵고, 오차를 일으킬 가능성이 있어 홍삼의 비 파괴내부조직검사의 가능성을 조사하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 홍삼시료의 수분함량은 $10{\sim}13%$에서 MR image를 획득 후 절단하여 MR image가 실제 절단면과 일치하는지 비교 관찰하였다. 홍삼 내부조직의 단면을 보기 위하여 동일한 조건의 Spin echo pulse sequence에서 시간, slice thickness, 온도별로 MR image를 얻었다. 홍삼은 수분함량이 낮기 때문에 MR 신호가 매우 미약하여 single point image(SPI) 측정방법으로는 약 30분 이상 시간이 소요되었다. 그러나 spin echo pulse sequence에서 내부조직을 구분할 수 있는 적당한 시간은 TE(Echo Time) 2.23 ms, TR(Repetition Time) 150 ms에서 약 9초 동안 측정으로 내부조직판별이 가능하였다. Slice thickness를 3, 5, 10 mm로 변화를 주어 측정한 결과 10 mm로 하였을 때 9초 이내에 내부조직 판별이 충분히 가능한 image를 얻을 수 있었다. 55로 약 30분간 시료를 가온 후 얻은 image가 상온에서 얻은 것보다 더 선명하였다. 이러한 원인은 온도를 가함으로서 수분의 활성이 높아져 MR 신호가 더 강해지는 것으로 생각된다. 이로서 짧은 시간에 홍삼의 MR Image를 획득하여 내부조직 특성을 비교 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 방법은 홍삼의 내부조직 평가에 활용가능성이 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper describes a Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) modulator and demodulator and the experimented underwater data ommunication equipment to transfer the analog echo signal in real-time from an underwater vehicle to the mother ship. The system consists of an echo signal transfer unit equipped to the vehicle and an ultrasonic receiver equipped on the ship. The former includes an ultrasonic transceiver unit of 180kHz for echo detection and a continuous wave transmitter of 50kHz with a FSK modulator for echo transmission to the ship. The latter includes an ultrasonic receiver of 50kHz and the FSK demodulator. The results of experiment are as follows. 1. The characteristics of the FSK modulating and demodulating circuits designed with the use of C-MOS IC 4046 was good and confirmed its usefulness in underwater data communication system.2. The prototype ultrasonic transceiver unit shows profitable driving power while the pulse duration was short less than 3 msec, but it was found that the driving power is not sufficient while the long pulse duration or continuous wave is used. The gain of the ultrasonic receiver was 80 dB and the receiving bandwidth 700Hz (at - 3 dB point).3. It was found that the system designed by the author has some possibility to use in underwater echo transfer.4. At the FSK modulator, the widths of voltage and frequency which represent linearity were 3.5 V, 1600Hz, respectively, at the FSK demodulator 2.6 V, 700Hz, respectively.

The summer polar lower thermosphere (90-100 km) has an interesting connection to meteors, adjacent to the mesopause region attaining the lowest temperature in summer. Meteors supply condensation nuclei for charged ice particles causing polar mesospheric summer echoes (PMSE). We report the observation of meteor trail with nearly horizontal transit at high speed (20-50 km/s), and at last with re-enhanced echo power followed by diffusive echoes. Changes in phase difference between radar receivers aligned in meridional and zonal directions are used to determine variations in horizontal displacements and speeds with respect to time by taking advantage of radar interferometric analysis. The actual transit of echo target is observed along the straight pathway vertically and horizontally extended as much as a distance of at least 24 km and at most 29 km. The meteor trail initially has a signature similar to 'head echoes', with travel speeds from 20 - 50 km/s. It subsequently transforms into a different type of echo target including specular echo and then finally the power reenhanced. The reenhancement of echo power is followed by fume-like diffusive echoes, indicating sudden release of plasma as like explosive process probably involved. We discuss a possible role of meteor-triggered secondary plasma trail, such as fireball embedded with electrical discharge that continuously varies the power and transit speed.

A majority of infrastructures has been deteriorated over time. Therefore, it is very important to verify the quality of construction, and the level of structural deterioration in existing structures, to ensure their safety and functionality. Many researchers have studied non-destructive testing (NDT) methods to identify structural problems in existing structures. The impact echo technique is one of the widely used NDT techniques. The impact echo technique has several inherent problems, including the difficulties in P-wave velocity evaluation due to inhomogeneous concrete properties, deterioration of evaluation accuracy where multiple reflection boundaries exist, and the influence of the receiver location in evaluating the thickness of the tested structures. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to propose an enhanced impact echo technique that can reduce the aforementioned problems and develop a Virtual Instrument for the application via a thickness evaluation technique which has same technical background to find deterioration in concrete structures. In the proposed impact echo technique, transfer function from dual channel system analysis is used, and coherence is improved to achieve reliable data. Also an averaged signal -ensemble- is used to achieve more reliable results. From the analysis of transfer function, the thickness is effectively identified.

자기공명 영상의 의학적 이용에서 T2이완시간의 화소별 영상화(T2 이완 영상)는 병변의 정량적 진단도구로서 제안된 바 있다. NMR의 물리/화학적 이용에서 T2 이완시간의 측정으로서 CPMG(Carr-Pucell-Meiboom-Gill) 펄스열이 가장 효과적으로 인정되고, 쓰이고 있으나, 선형자계를 가하는 MR 영상화 장비에서는 측정된 다른 TE의 영상들을 이용한 T2 이완시간의 영상화 자체에 대한 복잡한 계산을 영상기기에서 수행에 문제가 있고, 일반적으로 최대 4개의 CPMG 에코를 영상화하는 펄스열이 제공되어 있다. 좀더 정확한 T2 이완영상화를 위하여 적어도 8개의 다른 반향시간 TE를 가진 영상들을 필용로 하므로, MR 영상화 장비사에서 제공된 펄스열을 이용하면, 적어도 두번 이상의 영상화를 하여야한다. 이는 TR을 2500msec로 할 때 적어도 15분 정도의 시간이 걸리며, 이 동안 환자의 약간의 움직임, 특히 각 4개 단위의 영상화 사이에 움직임에 의한 임의적 잡음이 계산될 T2 영상에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이 연구에서는 시뮬레이션에 의하여 1, 5, 10% 의 이론적인 임의 잡음을 포함한 영상들을 이용하여 잡음이 T2 영상의 작성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 그리고 4개 에코 펄스열을 이용하여 세 번의 영상화로 12개의 영상을 얻고, 이들로부터 4개, 8개의 다른 TE를 가진 영상들을 선택하여 T2 영상을 계산하였다. 그리고 이 연구에서 개발된 8에코 CPMG펄스열로 한 번에 얻은 8개의 영상을 이용한 T2 이완 영상과 결과를 비교하였다. 잡음이 클수록 실제치보다 T2가 길었고, 8-에코 펄스열은 영상화하는 동안에 환자의 움직임을 줄여서 더 정확한 T2 이완 영상을 만들수 있었다.

AI speakers which are wireless speakers with smart features have released from many manufacturers and adopted by many customers. Though smart features including voice recognition, controlling connected devices and providing information are embedded in many mobile phones, AI speakers are sitting in home and has a role of the central en-tertainment and information provider. Many surveys have investigated the important factors to adopt AI speakers and influ-encing factors on satisfaction. Though most surveys on AI speakers are cross sectional, we can track customer attitude toward AI speakers longitudinally by analyzing customer reviews on AI speakers. However, there is not much research on the change of customer attitude toward AI speaker. Therefore, in this study, we try to grasp how the attitude of AI speaker changes with time by applying text mining-based analysis. We collected the customer reviews on Amazon Echo which has the highest share of AI speakers in the global market from Amazon.com. Since Amazon Echo already have two generations, we can analyze the characteristics of reviews and compare the attitude ac-cording to the adoption time. We identified all sub topics of customer reviews and specified the topics for smart features. And we analyzed how the share of topics varied with time and analyzed diverse meta data for comparisons. The proportions of the topics for general satisfaction and satisfaction on music were increasing while the proportions of the topics for music quality, speakers and wireless speakers were decreasing over time. Though the proportions of topics for smart fea-tures were similar according to time, the share of the topics in positive reviews and importance metrics were reduced in the 2nd generation of Amazon Echo. Even though smart features were mentioned similarly in the reviews, the influential effect on satisfac-tion were reduced over time and especially in the 2nd generation of Amazon Echo.

A MBES (multibeam echo sounder) survey around Yokji Island, Korea, was conducted to find an effective method for removing error data. Two post-processing software programs, PDS2000 (RESON) and HIPS (CARIS), were used to remove the error data using an interactive editing method and the CUBE algorithm filter. The post-processing with the PDS2000 and HIPS programs, using the interactive editing method, took 120 and 168 hours, respectively, and there was little difference in the seafloor images. The processing time of the PDS2000 and HIPS programs using the CUBE algorithm filter was 36 and 60 hours, respectively. Nevertheless, there was little difference in the seafloor images because of differences in the factor parameters in each of the post-processing programs. Therefore, post-processing using CUBE filtering can save time in data processing and provide consistent results, excluding the subjective decisions of the operator. This method is more effective than other methods for rejecting erroneous multibeam echo sounder data.
