Additional dentition images are needed because the dentitions are distorted in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) due to streak artifacts and non-uniformity of the x-ray beam. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of improving the dentition image of CBCT scan with intraoral scanner instead of plaster models. Maxilla images from plaster models, two intraoral scanners, and CBCT of 20 patients aged 12 to 18 were used in this study. With one of the intraoral scanners, the full arch was scanned by three segments and combined into a complete full arch. Virtual skull-dentition hybrid images from intraoral scanners were superimposed with the images from plaster models to evaluate the coordinate value difference and distance at reference points. The results showed that the coordinate value difference and distance were smallest with segmented intraoral scan, which showed only 2 ㎛ distance. Intraoral scan may provide good dentition images for virtual skull-dentition images.

In this paper, a novel ultrasonic propagation imaging system, called a full-field pulse-echo ultrasonic propagation imaging (FF PE UPI) system is introduced. The system nondestructively inspected targets with two-axis translation stage. The coincident laser beams for ultrasonic sensing and generation are scanned and pulse-echo mode laser ultrasounds are captured. This procedure makes it possible to generate full-field ultrasound in through-the-thickness direction as large as the scan area. Structural inspection results in the form of full-field ultrasonic wave propagation videos are introduced, which are painted sandwich control surfaces. In addition, the inspection results of FF PE UPI system are compared with conventional ultrasonic testing methods such as waterjet and portable C-scan.

A conventional phased array system can control an ultrasonic beam electronically by adjusting the excitation time delay of individual elements in a multi-element probe and produce an ultrasonic image. In Contrast, full matrix capture (FMC) is a data acquisition process that allows receiving ultrasonic signals from one single shot of the phased array transducer element through all the other elements and captures the complete dataset from every possible transmit-receive combination. This FMC data can be used to create the ultrasonic image in post processing. It is possible to produce not only images equivalent to conventional phased array image but also total focusing method (TFM) images with improved resolution and sharpness, which is virtually focused at any point in a region of interest. In this paper, the system that can perform FMC by using a conventional phased array instrument is developed, and a study was conducted on the imaging algorithms to reconstruct sector B-scan and TFM images from FMC dataset.

In this paper, we propose the efficient low power test methodology of NoC(Network-on chip) for the test of core-based systems that use this platform. To reduce the power consumption of transferring data through router channel, the scan vectors are partitioned into flits by channel width. The don't cares in unspecified scan vectors are mapped to binary values to minimize the switching rate between flits. Experimental results for full-scanned versions of ISCAS 89 benchmark circuits show that the proposed method leads to about 35% reduction in test power.

In this paper, we propose a fast partial distortion algorithm using normalized dithering matching scan to get uniform distribution of partial distortion which can reduce only unnecessary computation significantly. Our algorithm is based on normalized dithering order matching scan and calibration of threshold error using LOG value for each sub-block continuously for efficient elimination of unlike candidate blocks while keeping the same prediction quality compared with the full search algorithm. Our algorithm reduces about 60% of computations for block matching error compared with conventional PDE (partial distortion elimination) algorithm without any prediction quality, and our algorithm will be useful to real-time video coding applications using MPEG-4 AVC or MPEG-2.

We have studied the needs for developing plasma displays with 1080p quality and the possibilities to construct an affordable 42-inch full HD PDP. It seems impossible to get a prototype unless we overcome technical difficulties. First, we should find a way to innovatively improve luminous-efficacy and interconnection problems. At the same time, we should find a way to overcome image quality degradation in single scan.

As the performance of the spaceborne SAR has been dramatically enhanced and demonstrated through advanced missions such as TerraSAR and LRO(Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter), the need for highly sophisticated and efficient SAR processor is also highlighted. In Korea, the activity of SAR researches has been mainly concerned with SAR image applications and the current SAR raw data studies are mostly limited to stripmap mode cases. The first Korean spaceborne SAR is scheduled to be operational from 2010 and expected to deliver vast amount of SAR raw data acquired from multiple operational scenarios including ScanSAR mode. Hence there will be an increasing demand to implement ground processing systems that enable to analyze the acquired ScanSAR data and generate corresponding images. In this paper, we have developed an efficient ScanSAR processor that can be directly applied to spaceborne ScanSAR mode data. The SPECAN(Spectrum Analysis) algorithm is employed for this purpose and its performance is verified through RADARSAT-1 ScanSAR raw data taken over Korean peninsular. An efficient quick-look processing is carried out to produce a wide-swath SAR image and compared with the conventional RDA processing case.

In implant restorations, it is difficult for the patient to percept any symptoms. In addition, they are absent of shock absorbers, which can lead to mechanical failure if stress distribution is not considered. Since maxillary anterior multiple-implant restorations play a significant role in guiding the functional movement of the mandible by distributing lateral force, it is crucial to form appropriate occlusion. The use of the T-scan system is more advantageous in assessing 'dynamic occlusion', such as the change of occlusion over time, the amount of tooth contact during functional movement, and assessing the occlusion in the less-visible posterior teeth. The case is reported as it has satisfactory results in harmonious anterior guidance of a maxillary anterior multiple-implant restoration using T-scan analysis.

본 논문에서는 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간이 짧고 높은 고장 검출률(fault coverage)을 얻을 수 있는 새로운 부분스캔 설계 기술을 제안한다. 순차회로에서 테스트패턴 생성을 용이하게 하기 위하여 완전스캔 및 부분스캔 설계 기술이 널리 이용되고 있다. 스캔 설계로 인한 추가영역을 최소화 하고 최대의 고장 검출률을 목표로 하는 부분스캔 기술은 크게 구조분석과 테스트 가능도(testability)에 의한 설계 기술로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔은 짧은 시간에 스캔플립프롭을 선택할 수 있지만 고장 검출률은 낮다. 반면 테스트 가능도에 의한 부분스캔은 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔보다 스캔플립프롭의 선택 시간이 많이 걸리는 단점이 있지만 높은 고장 검출률을 나타낸다. 본 논문에서는 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔과 테스트 가능도에 의한 부분스캔 설계 기술의 장단점을 비교.분석하여 통합함으로써 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간을 단축하고 고장 검출률을 높일 수 있는 새로운 부분스캔 설계 기술을 제안한다. 실험결과 대부분의 ISCAS89 벤치마크 회로에서 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간은 현격히 감소하였고 비교적 높은 고장 검출률을 나타내었다.Abstract This paper provides a new partial scan design technique which not only reduces the time for selecting scan flip-flops but also improves fault coverage. To simplify the problem of the test pattern generation in the sequential circuits, full scan and partial scan design techniques have been widely adopted. The partial scan techniques which aim at minimizing the area overhead while maximizing the fault coverage, can be classified into the techniques based on structural analysis and testabilities. In case of the partial scan by structural analysis, it does not take much time to select scan flip-flops, but fault coverage is low. On the other hand, although the partial scan by testabilities generally results in high fault coverage, it requires more time to select scan flip-flops than the former method. In this paper, we analyzed and unified the strengths of the techniques by structural analysis and by testabilities. The new partial scan design technique not only reduces the time for selecting scan flip-flops but also improves fault coverage. Test results demonstrate the remarkable reduction of the time to select the scan flip-flops and high fault coverage in most ISCAS89 benchmark circuits.

Notch Antenna is a travelling wave type antenna and can provide multioctave operation in phased arrays that scan over wide angle. In this paper, we designed a wideband E-plane phased array antenna using E-plane waveguide simulator which has a bandwidth of 3 : 1 and a scan volume of $\pm$45$^{\circ}$ in E-plane. We compared impedance of single antenna and infinite array antenna using equivalent circuit modeling. We analyzed full structure of 1$\times$9 phased array antenna and we evaluated active reflection coefficient with variation of beam scan angle through mutual coupling coefficient acquired from simulation and investigated the variation of antenna gain with variation of active element pattern as beam scan angle is varied.
