  • In recent years, drones have been used to measure aircraft flights data and weather information. Related applications include the measure for low-altitude atmospheric data, the measure for atmospheric fine dust, and the measure for air pollution. However, the mounting position of the atmospheric measurement sensor should be mounted by considering the effects of propeller flow, the EMI effects, and the changes in the weight of the drone. Among these, the upper flow of the propeller affects the wind speed and direction, so the optimal position should be selected. This study deals with the proper height of the atmospheric data measurement sensor. Through the flow analysis, we study the flow characteristics of around a drone and suggest the proper sensor mounting height.

  • This paper is a study of the water sensor using a coaxial cavity resonator. This water sensor uses the resonant frequency variation of the coaxial cavity resonator when there is a water drop of the used coaxial cavity resonator. And we made resonant frequencies by controlling the input voltage of the oscillator which will be mainly resonated in the coaxial cavity resonator. First, we made the coaxial cavity resonator by simulating the resonator structure with the proposed size and we expect the resonant frequency from the simulation and then we decide the VCO from the result. Second, we made the water drop detecting sensor circuit and measured the water sensor. We decided the size of the resonator as inner conductor 5mm, outer conductor 14mm, the height of resonator 9.5mm, and the height of the glass 6mm from the simulated result. The simulated resonant frequencies are 3.09GHz and we made the VCO frequency ranges from 2.56GHz to 3.2GHz. The measured resonant frequency is 2.97GHz and the return loss is under -8. 4 dB at the center frequency. When the water is dropped on the glass of the resonator, the voltage has changed from 690mV to 145mV. It shows the proposed water sensor can detect the water by the resonant frequency variation of the resonator.

  • This paper is to develop jumping ring system with three sensor arrays and to control levitated ring using dynamic neural mode. Placing an aluminum ring on the core and switching on an AC source causes the ring to jump in the air due to induced currents. The educational system is composed of 40th optical sensor array, encode circuit, 89C51 microprocessor and control board. The control board consists of power IC, and phase controller. Real time process is present to obtain a height of levitated ring for three different sensor arrays. Based on the educational system and the proposed dynamic neural mode, the height of levitation of the ring is controlled by reference signals. This paper focuses on real system controls using the dynamic neural mode with on line learning algorithm.

  • In this study, experiments were conducted to investigate the correspondence between the output voltage of the photoelectric sensor and the frost height under heating and defrosting capacity test condition (dry bulb temperature $2^{\circ}C$, wet bulb temperature $1^{\circ}C$) described at KS C 9306, where a real heat exchanger was used as a test rig instead of a large-scale model. A digital microscope and a photoelectric sensor unit consisting of an emitter and a transistor (receiver) were installed in the front of it. A linear correlation is proposed to predict the frost height based on 150 experimental data, approximately 54% of the measured data are consistent with the predicted frost heights within a relative deviation of ${\pm}10%$, it yields good agreement with 90% of the measured data when the frost height larger than 0.3mm with in a relative deviation of ${\pm}10%$. Compared with Xiao's correlation, the slope namely, the change of frost height in accordance with the change of output voltage is consistent within the error of 2.3%. But vertical intercept shows big difference with Xiao's correlation, because it was developed with a large scale model instead of a real heat exchanger.

  • Despite the Wave observations data is very important information to human life at sea, the technology development and research for wave equipments are lacking. In this study, the wave observation system using GPS was evaluated the quality of wave observation data by comparing of long-term observations. The result of the comparison of the acceleration sensor (Hippy-40) and GPS sensor (Mose-1000), the correlation coefficient of the significant wave height and significant wave periods is 0.997 and 0.990 respectively. Also in case of BIAS, the significant wave height is 0.014 m, the significant wave period is -0.212 sec. It makes no significant differences whether the acceleration sensor (Hippy-40) and GPS sensor (Mose-1000). These results of the wave observation data using GPS quality will be evaluated as very good.

  • Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) has been attracting lots of interest in recent years for smart surveillance systems. WSN-based surveillance systems need to figure out the occurrence or existence of events or objects and to find out where the events have occurred or the objects are present. In our surveillance system, it is needed to give an alarm only when the detected object is human (not pets or rodents) for reducing false alarms and improving the system reliability. In this paper, we propose a height prediction mechanism to determine if the detected object is human using Heron's formula. Finally, we verify the performance of our proposed mechanism through various experiments.

  • The objective of this research was to establish the estimation method of growth information on potato using Multi-Spectral Image Sensor (MSIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS). And growth estimation map for determining a prescription map over the entire field was generated. To determine the growth model, 10 ground-truth points of areas of $4m^2$ each were selected and investigated. The growth information included stem number, crop height and SPAD value. In addition, images information involving the ground-truth points were also taken by an unmanned helicopter, and reflectance value of Green, Red, and NIR bands were calculated with image processing. Then, growth status of potato was modeled by multi-regression analysis using these reflectance value of Green, Red, and NIR. As a result, potato growth information could be detected by analyzing Green, Red, and NIR images. Stem number, crop height and SPAD value could be estimated with $R^2$ values of 0.600, 0.657 and 0.747 respectively. The generated GIS map would describe variability of the potato growth in a whole field.

  • MR transfer behaviors of the permanent magnet biased spin valve MR sensors with SyAF (synthetic antiferromagnet) layers were studied by micromagnetics modeling. For narrow track MR heads, various height to width ratios were considered together with strength of permanent magnets which stabilities the free layed As the MR sensor width is reduced to $0.12 \mu{m}$, sensor height less than 0.09 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ is needed to show good linearity and the Mr.t of permanent magnets smaller than 0.2 memu/$cm^2$ is sufficient for the domain stabilization. The conditions for single domain behavior of the free layer were also investigated through optimizing the biasing strength of permanent magneto the shield gap and the aspect ratio of MR sensor.

  • In this study, a new concept of a flow sensor is developed using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD). Current of DBD generated between two electrodes is changed with varying flow rates. Therefore, it is possible to measure the flow rate by correlating generated DBD current with flow rates. The effects of flow rate, frequency, channel height, diameter of electrodes and distance between electrodes on the performance of the flow sensor using DBD are experimentally investigated.
