Due to the increasing demand for spectrum resources, cognitive radio networks and dynamic spectrum access draw a lot of research into efficiently utilizing limited spectrum resources. To set up cluster-based CR ad-hoc common channels, conventional methods require a relatively long time to successfully exchange the initialization messages. In this paper, we propose a fast and reliable common channel initialization protocol for CR ad-hoc networks. In the proposed method, the cluster head sequentially broadcasts a system activation signal through its available channels with a predetermined correlation pattern. To detect the cluster head's broadcasting channels and to join the cluster, each member node implements fast Fourier transform (FFT) and computes autocorrelation of an FFT bin sequence for each available channel of the member node. This is compared to the predetermined reference pattern. The join request and channel decision procedures are also presented in this paper. In a simulation study, the performance of the proposed method is evaluated.

The wave-cutoff tool is a new diagnostic method to measure electron density and electron temperature. Most of the plasma diagnostic tools have the disadvantage that their application to processing plasma where toxic and reactive gases are used gives rise to many problems such as contamination, perturbation, precision of measurement, and so on. We can minimize these problems by using the wave-cutoff method. Here, we will present the results obtained through the development of the wave-cutoff diagnostic method. The frequency spectrum characteristics of the wave-cutoff probe will be obtained experimentally and analyzed through the microwave field simulation by using the CST-MW studio simulator. The plasma parameters are measured with the wave-cutoff method in various discharge conditions and its results will be compared with the results of Langmuir probe. Another disadvantage is that other diagnostic methods spend a long time (~ a few seconds) to measure plasma parameters. In this presentation, a fast measurement method will be also introduced. The wave-cutoff probe system consists of two antennas and a network analyzer. The network analyzer provides the transmission spectrum and the reflection spectrum by frequency sweeping. The plasma parameters such as electron density and electron temperature are obtained through these spectra. The frequency sweeping time, the time resolution of the wave-cutoff method, is about 1 second. A short pulse with a broad band spectrum of a few GHz is used with an oscilloscope to acquire the spectra data in a short time. The data acquisition time can be reduced with this method. Here, the plasma parameter measurement methods, Langmuir probe, pulsed wave-cutoff method and frequency sweeping wave-cutoff method, are compared. The measurement results are well matched. The real time resolution is less than 1 ?sec. The pulsed wave-cutoff technique is found to be very useful in the transient plasmas such as pulsed plasma and tokamak edge plasma.

In this paper, we propose a robust music audio fingerprinting system for automatic music retrieval. The fingerprint feature is extracted from the long-term dynamic modulation spectrum (LDMS) estimation in the perceptual compressed domain. The major advantage of this feature is its significant robustness against severe background noise from the street and cars. Further the fast searching is performed by looking up hash table with 32-bit hash values. The hash value bits are quantized from the logarithmic scale modulation frequency coefficients. Experiments illustrate that the LDMS fingerprint has advantages of high scalability, robustness and small fingerprint size. Moreover, the performance is improved remarkably under the severe recording-noise conditions compared with other power spectrum-based robust fingerprints.

The polycrystalline epr spectrum of ${\alpha}-1,\;2-[PV(IV)VW_{10}O_{40}]^{6-}$ doped into host crystals and its solution spectrum are reported. The solution spectrum consists of fifteen lines, indicating that the unpaired electron is hopping fast between the two vanadium atoms. The polycrystalline spectrum, which consists of three sets of fifteen lines, was analyzed as a spectrum of an I = 7 system and the epr parameters were determined. The spectrum cannot be interpreted by assuming that each line appears at the average magnetic field of two hyperfine lines expected for two uncoupled vanadium atoms.

A design study was performed to improve the limit aseismic performance (LSP) of a primary heat transport system (PHTS) pump. This pump is part of the primary equipment of a prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR). The LSP is the maximum allowable seismic load that still ensures structural integrity. To calculate the LSP of the PHTS pump, a structural analysis model of the pump was developed and its dynamic characteristics were obtained by modal analysis. The floor response spectrum (FRS) initiated from a safety shutdown earthquake (SSE), 0.3 g, was applied to the support points of the PHTS pump, and then the seismic induced stresses were calculated. The structural integrity was evaluated according to the ASME code, and the LSP of the PHTS pump was calculated from the evaluation results. Based on the results of the modal analysis and LSP of the PHTS pump, design parameters affecting the LSP were selected. Then, ways to improve the LSP were proposed from sensitivity analysis of the selected design variables.

In this work, we propose an airborne cognitive radio system that searches a new spectrum band to avoid a communication interruption due to the interference from many radar signals. We develop a method of fast spectrum sensing based on an effective frequency by recognizing the interfering radar as well as geographical information. This effective frequency is calculated by the free-space path loss between a base station and a fighter with the speed parameter. From our analysis, it is verified that the maximum frequency searching time is reduced by half by using our method.

In this paper, a fast synchronization system using SAW TDL matched filter and SAW recirculation loop not only for acquisition but also tracking in the direct sequence spread spectrum communication receiver in case of low SNR was designed and its characteristics were investigated. When signal of 16dB SNR was inputed at the receiver, the PN code of the receiver could be synchronized from the extracted signal for synchronization through SAW TDL matched filter and SAM recirculation loop for 30 recirculations. And the average synchronization time of this system was calculated. From the results, we found that this synchronization system could achieve faster synchronization of PN codes in the receiver under the circumstances of low SNR than that of using only matched filter.

As demand for paper cups markedly increases, this has brought about a requirement to develop fast paper cup forming machines. However, the fast manufacturing speed of these machines causes faults to occur more frequently in the final product. To reduce the possibility of producing faulty products, it is necessary to develop technologies to monitor the manufacturing process and diagnose the machine status. In this research, we selected the main driving axis of the forming machine for fault diagnosis. We searched the states of rotational elements related to the driving axis and suggested a fault diagnostic system based on spectrum analysis consisting of a real-time data acquisition device, accelerometers, and a diagnosis algorithm. To evaluate the developed fault diagnostic system, we performed experiments using a test station which resembles the actual paper cup forming machine. As a result, we were able to confirm that the proposed system was sufficiently feasible to diagnose any abnormalities in the operation of the paper cup forming machine.
