In this paper, the dependence of the Kalman filter-based emitter location algorithm on the initial estimate is investigated. Given all the LOB data, the initial estimate of the emitter location is obtained from the linear LSE algorithm with the former LOB data. Using the initial estimate, the Kalman filter algorithm is applied with the remaining LOB data to update the initial estimate. It is shown that as the number of data used in the calculation of the initial estimate increases, the accuracy of the final estimate is improved and the total computational complexity of obtaining the initial estimate and the final estimate increases. In addition, the dependence of the performance of the Kalman filter algorithm on the predefined constant is illustrated.

Objectives : Teaching the standardized acupuncture point locations and improving the accuracy of acupoint locations through objective evaluation is a very important part of Korean medicine education. The aim of this study is to develop a dummy system for evaluation and support of teaching acupoint location in meridian and acupoints classes and to introduce the developed system. Methods : We established a protocol for the development of the system. The protocol included definition of usage purpose, definition of its essential performance, and set of scope. The system compares the amount of light at the target acupoint with the amount of light at the other sites to determine whether the target acupoint is properly specificated. Results : A prototype of the system was built according to the protocol and consists of light emitter, dummy, control/operation, input part and output part. The light emitter projects laser beam passing through the skin of the dummy. Light sensors were attached inside the acupoints of the dummy. Three types of light sensors were selected depending on the location of the acupoints. The arithmetic, input, and output parts were constructed using Arduino and Raspberry pi boards. The developed system was applied in class. Conclusions : It is thought that the dummy system for evaluation and support of teaching acupoint location can be used as a training model in order to help teach standardized acupoint locations and objective evaluation.

현대 전자전 지원 시스템에서는 TDOA (time difference of arrival)나 FDOA (frequency difference of arrival)와 같은 비도래각 정보를 이용하여 미상 신호원의 위치를 추정하는 정밀 위치추정 기법의 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 기존의 단일 TDOA 기반 기법에 관한 연구는 위치추정 알고리즘뿐만 아니라 측정 정확도 향상에 대해 다양한 진척이 이루어졌으며, 최근에는 TDOA와 FDOA 정보를 동시에 사용하여 적은 수신단 수로 보다 많은 정보를 획득할 수 있고 신호원의 속도 추정이 가능한 복합 위치추정 시스템에 관한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 이러한 과정에서 TDOA/FDOA 복합 위치추정 시스템이 기존 단일 TDOA 시스템을 대체할 수 있는 추정 성능을 갖기 위해 요구되는 FDOA 측정 정확도와 성능분석 과정이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 CRLB (Cramer-Lao lower bound)의 분석을 통해 TDOA/FDOA 위치추정 시스템이 단일 TDOA 위치추정 시스템에 비해 향상된 추정 정확도를 갖기 위해 요구되는 FDOA 측정 정확도의 기준과 이에 따른 기여도를 분석하고, Gauss-Newton 알고리즘을 이용하여 분석 결과를 검증한다.

순시(instantaneous) TDOA (time difference of arrival)와 FDOA (frequency difference of arrival)를 이용한 위치추정 방법은 추가적인 측정값 획득을 통해 정확도 향상을 도모할 수 있으며, 이를 위해서는 동시에 운용되는 수신단의 수를 증가하여야 한다. 하지만 전자전 환경에서 수신단 수의 증가는 아군의 피탐확률(probability of intercept) 상승으로 인한 전력 손실을 야기할 수 있고, 수신단 간의 데이터 링크 및 시각동기화와 같은 과정에 대한 추가적인 고려가 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이격된 2개의 이동 수신단만을 운용하여 연속적으로 다수의 TDOA와 FDOA 정보를 측정하고, 이를 이용하여 고정 신호원의 위치를 추정하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 경우 매 측정 순간마다 독립된 수신단 쌍(pair)이 추가되므로 각 수신단 조합은 서로 다른 기준 수신단을 가지게 된다. 그러므로 모든 수신단 쌍이 동일한 기준 수신단을 공유해야하는 QCLS (quadratic correction least squares) 방법을 적용할 수 없다. 이러한 이유로 본 논문에서는 비선형 LS 최적해를 반복계산을 통해 얻어내는 Gauss-Newton 기법을 적용한다. 또한 모의실험을 통해 획득된 TDOA와 FDOA의 수가 증가함에 따른 위치추정 결과의 RMSE (root mean square error)값과 CRLB (Cramer-Rao lower bound)를 비교하고, CEP (circular error probable) 평면을 도시하여 2차원 공간상에서의 기대 추정 성능을 분석한다.

In an effort to clarify the wetted patterns of sandy loam soil under trickle irrigation conditions, the distance of wetted zone, infiltration capacity and soil wetted patterns, etc. were measured by gypsum block as soil moisture sensor located every 5 cm vertically and horizontaly in the soil bin under the such conditions as a). irrigation rates set to 2, 4, 6, 8 liters per hour b). total amount of water applied fixed to 14.62 liters per soil bin c) the hearing force of soil measured by plate penetrometer ranging from 1.04 to 1.22kg/cm$_2$ The results can be summarized as follows ; 1. The wetted distance in horizontal direction(H), the wetted distance in vertical direction(D), the horizontal infiltration capacity (iH) and the vertical infiltration capacity(in)could by explained as a function of time t. 2. The horizontal wetted distance (H) is explained by an exponetial function H= a$.$ t where b was found ranging from 021 to 026 under surface trickle irrigation, which was considered a lotlower than the classical value of 0.5 and these measurements were indifferent to the increasing irrigation rates. 3. As for the surface trickle irrigation where horizontal infiltration capacity(iH) is explained as iH = A $.$ t h, the coefficient A increases with respect to irrigation rates within the limits of 0.89~1.34. 4. In terms of surface trickle irrigation of the ratio of Dm Which is maximum vertical wetted distance to Hm, which is maximum horizontal wetted distance, found to be within range of 1.0 to 1.21. It was also noted that the value of Dm decreses when irrigation rates increases while the value of Hm changes the opposite direction. 5. The optimum location of sensors from emitter for surface trickle irrigation should he inside of hemisphere whose lateral radius is 28~30cm long and vertical radius is 10~12cm long. The distance between emitters should be within 60cm long. 6. In the study of vertical wetted distance( D) where D= a $.$ tb, the exponential coefficient b ranged from 0.61 to 0.75 in surface trickle irrigation, and from 0A9 to 0.68 for subsurface trickle irrigation. These measurements showed an increasing tendency to with respect to irrigation rates. 7. In case of vertical infiltration capacity( in), where iD= A $.$ t 1-h, the coefficient A for surface trickle irrigation found to be within range of 0.16 to 0.19 and did not show any relationships with varying degree of irrigation rates. However, the coefficient was varying from 0.09 to 0.22 and showed a tendency to increase vis-a-vis irrigation rates for subsurface trickle irrigation, in contrast. 8. In the observation of subsurface trickle irrigation, it was found that Dm/Hm ratio was within 1.52 to 1.91 and showed a decreasing tendency with respect to increasing rates of irrigation. 9. The location of sensors for subsurface trickle irrigation follows same pattern as above, with vertical distance from emitter being 10~17cm long and horizontal 22~25cm long. The location of emitter should be 50 cm. 10.The relationship between VS which is the volume of wetted soil and Q which is the total amount of water when soil is reached field capacity could be explained as VS= 2.914Q0.91and the irrigation rates showed no impacts on the above relationship.

This paper is concerned with tasking and guidance of networked airborne sensors to achieve fault-tolerant sensing. The sensors are coordinated to locate hostile transmitters by intercepting and processing their signals. Faults occur when some sensor-carrying vehicles engaged in target location missions are lost. Faults effectively change the network architecture and therefore degrade the network performance. The first objective of the paper is to optimally allocate a finite number of sensors to targets to maximize the network life and availability. To that end allocation policies are solved from relevant Markov decision problems. The sensors allocated to a target must continue to adjust their trajectories until the estimate of the target location reaches a prescribed accuracy. The second objective of the paper is to establish a criterion for vehicle guidance for which fault-tolerant sensing is achieved by incorporating the knowledge of vehicle loss probability, and by allowing network reconfiguration in the event of loss of vehicles. Superior sensing performance in terms of location accuracy is demonstrated under the established criterion.

In the direction and location finding field of application, AOA, TDOA and FDOA, etc. are used to improve the performance of geolocation. But, these methods cause some limitations such as the calibrations for phase and amplitude matching and precise time synchronization among receiving channels. In this paper, We suggest a method for generating FDOA using rotating antenna and the geolocation of stationary emitter using two receivers in one platform for minimizing the limitations. We present performance of simulation results and test results of the FDOA geolocation system. The direction finding errors of the system are less than $0.1^{\circ}$ rms and the distance errors are less than 3 % compared with the practical distance.
