A high speed data link capability is one of the critical factors in determining the performance of the spaceborne SAR system with high resolution. It is due to the strict requirement for the real-time data transmission from a series of massive raw image data of spaceborne SAR to the ground station in a limited time of mission. In this paper, based on the data link model characterized by the spaceborne small SAR system, the high rate multi-channel data link module is designed including link storage, link processor, transmitter, and wide-angle antenna. The design results are presented with the performance analysis on the data link budget as well as the multi-mode data rate in association with the SAR imaging mode of operation from high resolution to the wide swath.

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have facilitated substantial improvement in single-image super-resolution (SR) by enabling the generation of photo-realistic images. However, the high memory requirements of GAN-based SRs (mainly generators) lead to reduced performance and increased energy consumption, making it difficult to implement them onto resource-constricted devices. In this study, we propose an efficient and compressed architecture for the SR-GAN (generator) model using the model compression technique Knowledge Distillation. Our approach involves the transmission of knowledge from a heavy network to a lightweight one, which reduces the storage requirement of the model by 58% with also an increase in their performance. Experimental results on various benchmarks indicate that our proposed compressed model enhances performance with an increase in PSNR, SSIM, and image quality respectively for x4 super-resolution tasks.

TEM(투과전자현미경, Transmission Electron Microscop)은 결정재료뿐 아니라 비정질 재료까지도 원자단위의 구조를 연구하는데 매우 유용한 도구이다. 특히 200kV의 가속전압 투과전자현미경에 FEG(Field Emission Gun) 전자총이 장착되기 시작하면서 TEM은 비정질 구조 연구에 하나의 핵심적인 도구로서의 역할이 크게 기대되는 장비가 되었다. 본 연구에서는 TEM의 microanalysis accessary인 EELS(Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy)technique을 주로 이용하던 기존의 방법대신 고 분해능(HRTEM(High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy)의 image로부터 비정질 정량묘사의 유일한 도구인 원자분포함수(RDF(Radial Distribution Function))로의 Reconstruction을 Simulation을 이용하여 시도하였다. 비정질 HRTEM image의 정량분석을 통하여 이 분야에서의 TEM의 한계를 이해하기 위하여 몇 모델을 제시하고 사용하였다. 또한 비정질 구조를 정량적으로 묘사하는 도구인 원자분포함수를 알아보고 비정질재료를 보다 물리적으로 모델링하기 위하여 가능한 모델 제시 후 첫 단계로서 HRTEM image에서 원자분포함수를 이끌어내기 위한 모델링을 수행하고 비정질 게르마늄(a-Ge) film에 대하여 실제로 적용하여 보았다. 마지막으로 실험적인 접근으로 200kV FE-TEm (poingt resolution 0.14nm) 으로 비정질 Ge의 image를 solw Scan CCD를 이용한 Elastic image를 Through Focus로 얻었으며 수치적인 정량비교를 역격자 공간에서 출발한 가장 물리적인 구조 모델을 이용하여 수행하였다. 모든 정량비교는 image의 Fourier 변환인 Diffractogram으로 하였다. 결론적으로, 많은 복잡한 수치 처리과정을 거쳐야 하지만 HRTEM의 image로부터 구조에 대한 정보(RDF)는 명확하게 얻을 수 있었다.

Nowadays it is necessary to replace electrical wires with another intelligent connection method because the consumers, who have much experience with mobile smart devices, are expecting easier and smarter connectivity in their home electronics such as wireless linking. In this paper a bidirectional CEC control scheme is newly proposed to expand the controllability from one to two way in a millimeter band image transmission system because two degree of freedom controllability presents more intelligent convenience in HDMI interface systems. Experimental study shows the feasibility of the proposed system as an advanced image transmission solution in millimeter band including an intelligent 2 DOF CEC interface with the performance result of 3.0 Gbps transmission band for 1080p full-HD image steaming.

Advances in wireless communication and hardware technology have made it possible to manufacture high-performance tiny sensor nodes. More recently, the availability of inexpensive cameras modules that are able to capture multimedia data from the environment has fostered the development of Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks(WMSNs). WMSN supplements the a advanced technique that senses, transmits, and processes the multimedia contents upon the text based traditional wireless sensor network. Since the amount of data which the multimedia contents have, is significantly larger than that of text based data, multimedia contents require lots of computing power and high network bandwidth. To process the multimedia contents on the wireless sensor node which has very limited computing power and energy, a technique for WMSN should take account of computing resource and efficient transmission. In the paper, we propose a new image compression technique YWCE for efficient compression and transmission of image data in WMSN. YWCE introduces 4 type of technique for motion estimation and compensation based on the Resolution Scalability of Wavelet. Experimental result shows that YWCE has high compression performance with different set of 4 type.

The microstructure of intermixed $Zn_{1-x}Fe_xSe$ layers in the (ZnSe/FeSe) superstrates grown on (00l) GaAs substrates has been investigated by high -resolution transmission electron microscopy and computer simulations of lattice images. Computer image simulations have been performed by the multislice method under various sample thicknesses and defocusing conditions. The simulated lattice images were compared with the experimental lattice images. Also, CuAu-I type ordering was often observed in the intermixed $Zn_{1-x}Fe_xSe$ alloys. This CuAu-I type ordered structure consists of alternating ZnSe and FeSe monolayers along the <100> and <110> directions.

The downlink data rates of the space-born payloads such as high-resolution optical cameras, synthetic aperture radars (SAR) and hyper-spectral sensors are being rapidly increased. For example, the image transmission rates of KOMPSAT-2 MSC(Multi-Spectral Camera) is 320Mbps even if on-board image compression scheme is used.[1] In the near future, the data rates are expected to be a level 500${\sim}$600Mbps because the required resolution will be higher and the swath width will be increased. This paper describes many techniques they enable 500Mbps data receiving and archiving system.

Recent cryo-electron microscopy (EM) studies reported the structure of various types of proteins at high resolution which is sufficient to visualize the intermolecular interaction at near atomic level. There are two main factors that cause the advances in cryo-EM; the development of image processing techniques, such as single particle analysis, and the improved electron detection devices. Although the atomic structures of small and asymmetric proteins are not yet to be determined by cryo-EM, this striking improvement implies the bright prospect of the application in biomedical studies. This study reviews the recently published studies reported high resolution structures using improved imaging analysis techniques and electron detectors. Furthermore, we will discuss about the future aspects of cryo-EM application.

The crystallographic characteristics of the $(Bi, La)_4$$Ti_3$$O_{12}$ thin film, which is considered as an applicable dielectrics in the ferroelectric RAM device due to a low crystallization temperature and a good fatigue property, were investigated at the atomic scale by high resolution transmission electron microscopy and the high resolution Z-contrast technique. The analysis showed that a (00c) preferred orientation and a crystallization of the film were enhanced with the diffraction intensity increase of the (006) and (008) plane as the annealing temperature increased. It indicated a change of the atomic arrangement in the (00c) plane. Stacking faults on the (00c) plane were also observed. Through the comparison of the high-resolution Z-contrast image and the $Bi_4$$Ti_3$$O_{12}$ atomic model, it was evaluated that the intensity of the Bi atom was different according to the atomic plane, and it was attributed to a substitution of La atom for Bi at the specific atom position.
