This paper presents the architecture design, implement, experimental validation of a bistatic backscatter wireless communication system in Wi-Fi network. The operating principle is to communicate a tag's data by detecting the power level of the power modulated Wi-Fi packets to be reflected or absorbed by backscatter tag, in interconnecting with Wi-Fi device and Wi-Fi AP. This system is able to provide the identification and sensor data of tag on the internet connectivity without requiring extra device for reading data, because this uses an existing Wi-Fi AP infrastructure. The backscatter tag consists of Wi-Fi energy harvesting part and a backscatter transmitter/a power-detecting receiver part. This tag can operate by harvesting and generating energy from Wi-Fi signal power. Wi-Fi device decodes information of the tag data by recognizing the power level of the backscattered Wi-Fi packets. Wi-Fi device receives the backscattered Wi-Fi packets and generates the tag's data pattern in the time-series of channel state information (CSI) values. We believe that this system can be achieved wireless connectivity for ultra- low-power IoT and wearable device.

반도체 센서(p-MOSFET)가 이온화 방사선에 노출되면 산화층내에 전자-정공이 생성되고, 이들 중에서 이동도가 낮은 정공은 이동중 산화층내에 트랩(trap)되어 센서의 출력 특성을 변화시킨다. 본 논문에서는 p-MOSFET를 방사선 누적선량 모니터링 센서로 활용하기 위해 국산 및 일산의 상용 p-MOSFET를 Co-60 $\gamma$선원을 갖춘 고준위 조사시설에서 조사한 후 출력특성의 변화를 분석하였다. 방사선 조사실험 결과 p-MOSFET는 조사된 누적 방사선량에 비례하여 문턱전압(threshold voltage, $V_T$)이 변화됨과 이 변화에는 선형적 특성을 지님을 알 수 있었다. 본 논문의 결과를 통하여 저가의 상용 p-MOSFET를 이용한 우수한 성능의 방사선 누적선량 모니터링 센서를 개발할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Optical Fourier-domain reflectometry (OFDR) sensors have been widely used to measure distances with high resolution and speed in a noncontact state. In the electroplating process of a printed circuit board, it is critically important to monitor the copper-plating thickness, as small deviations can lead to defects, such as an open or short circuit. In this paper we employ a phase-based OFDR sensor for in situ relative distance sensing of a sample with nanometer-scale resolution, during electroplating. We also develop an optical-path difference (OPD)-regulated sensing probe that can maintain a preset distance from the sample. This function can markedly facilitate practical measurements in two aspects: Optimal distance setting for high signal-to-noise ratio OFDR sensing, and protection of a fragile probe tip via vertical evasion movement. In a sample with a centimeter-scale structure, a conventional OFDR sensor will probably either bump into the sample or practically out of the detection range of the sensing probe. To address this limitation, a novel OPD-regulated OFDR system is designed by combining the OFDR sensing probe and linear piezo motors with feedback-loop control. By using multiple OFDR sensors, it is possible to effectively monitor copper-plating thickness in situ and uniformize it at various positions.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 다중경로 라우팅 방안은 종단 간 데이터 전달의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위한 연구주제 중 하나이다. 최근에는 다중경로의 강건함과 효율성을 위해서 경로의 분리와 관리를 위한 연구가 다수 진행 되었다. 그러나 이전의 연구들은 무선 통신 환경을 고려하지 않은 다중경로의 분리 방법을 이용하고 있다. 게다가, 그들은 불규칙 네트워크 환경에서 노드나 통신 실패로 인해 발생하는 경로 실패를 관리하는 방법이 없거나 추가경로를 생성하는 간단한 방법을 통해 다중경로를 유지한다. 이를 보완하기 위해서, 네트워크 오류지역을 우회 전송하고 경로를 재구성하는 다중경로 유지 방안이 제안되었지만, 중앙 집중적이고 정적인 경로 관리 방법을 이용하기 때문에, 경로 재구성 과정에서 데이터 전달의 중단이나 링크의 단절, 그리고 많은 경로 재구성 비용 등이 요구되는 문제가 있다. 이런 제약과 문제들은 데이터 전달의 신뢰성 저하와 긴급 데이터의 보고 실패로 이뤄질 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 불규칙적이고 제한적인 무선 센서 네트워크 환경을 고려하여 유연한 분리형 다중경로를 구축하는 방법과 효율적으로 다중경로를 유지할 수 있도록 경로의 우선순위 규칙을 적용한 지역 결정 기반의 다중경로 관리 방법을 제안한다. 그리고 제안 방법의 성능을 평가하기 위해서 시뮬레이션을 수행한다.

광섬유가 지니는 패러데이 효과를 이용하여 전류의 세기를 측정하는 광전류 센서 소자를 설계 및 제작하였다. 센서 소자의 동작 안정성을 향상시키기 위하여 편광회전 반사 간섭계와 사분 파장 위상 간섭계 구조를 도입하였다. 이 복잡한 구조를 구성하는 다양한 광소자들은 하나의 폴리머 광집적회로로 구성하여 작은 크기로 제작되었다. 본 구조를 이용하면 외부에서 별도의 바이어스 피드백 제어가 필요 없는 상태에서 전류를 측정하는 센싱 동작을 수행할 수 있다. 또한 온도변화나 외부진동으로 인한 광센서 특성 변화를 제거하여 안정적인 특성을 유지하는 광전류센서를 구현할 수 있다. 그러나 패러데이 효과를 결정짓는 베르데상수는 온도에 따라 미소한 값의 변화를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이 변화로 인한 광전류센서의 온도의존성을 극복하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 편광회전 반사 간섭계의 부품인 광섬유 사분 파장판의 길이를 최적값으로부터 벗어나는 상태로 맞추어 줌으로써 베르데 상수의 온도의존성에 의해 나타나는 광전류센서의 스케일 팩터 변화를 보상해줄 수 있었다. 온도변화를 보상한 광전류센서는 주변 온도를 상온에서 85℃로 올리는 동안, 센서 측정 신호의 온도 의존성이 0.2% 이내로 유지되는 것을 확인했다.

The electronic nose (e-nose) has been used in food industry and quality controls in plastic packaging. Recently it finds its applications in medical diagnosis, specifically on detection of diabetes, pulmonary or gastrointestinal problem, or infections by examining odors in the breath or tissues with its odor characterizing ability. Moreover, the use of portable e-nose enables the on-site measurements and analysis of vapors without extra gas-sampling units. This is expected to widen the application of the e-nose in various fields including point-of-care-test or e-health. In this study, a PDA-based portable e-nose was developed using micro-machined gas sensor array and miniaturized electronic interfaces. The rich capacities of the PDA in its computing power and various interfaces are expected to provide the rapid and application specific development of the diagnostic devices, and easy connection to other facilities through information technology (IT) infra. For performance verification of the developed portable e-nose system, Six different vapors were measured using the system. Seven different carbon-black polymer composites were used for the sensor array. The results showed the reproducibility of the measured data and the distinguishable patterns between the vapor species. Additionally, the application of two typical pattern recognition algorithms verified the possibility of the automatic vapor recognition from the portable measurements. These validated the portable e-nose based on PDA developed in this study.

In this work, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) was demonstrated for 10-GHz band motion detecting sensors. The VCO MMIC was fabricated using a $2-{\mu}m$ InGap/GaAs HBT process, and the tuning of the oscillation frequency is achieved by changing the internal capacitance in the HBT, instead of using extra varactor diodes. The implemented VCO MMIC has a micro size of $500{\mu}m{\times}500{\mu}m$, and demonstrates the value of inserting the VCO into a single chip transceiver. The experimental results showed that the frequency tuning characteristic was above 30 MHz, with the excellent output flatness characteristic of ${\pm}0.2dBm$ over the tuning bandwidth. And, the VCO MMIC exhibited a phase noise characteristic of -92.64 dBc/Hz and -118.28 dBc/Hz at the 100 kHz and 1 MHz offset frequencies from the carrier, respectively. The measured values were consistent with the design values, and exhibited good performance.

In this paper, a new structure that can do fault detection and location of digial logic circuits more efficiently using current testing techniques is proposed. In the conventional method, observation point for steady state power supply current was only one, but in the proposed method more fault classes are divided for fault detection and location through the ovservation of steady state power supply current at two points. Also, it is shown that this structure can be easily applied in detection of stuck-open fault which is not easy to do testing with conventional current testing techniques. In the presented mehtod, an extra trasnistor is used, and current path is made compulsorily in the CMOS circuits in which no current path can be established in steady state, then it can be known that stuck-open tault is in the MOS transistor on the considering current path, if this path disappears due to stuck-open fault. The validity and the effectiveness is shwon, thorugh the SPICE simulation of circuits with fault and the current path search experiment using current path search program based on transistor short model wirtten in C language on SUN sparc workstation.
