Full Dimension multiple input multiple output (FD-MIMO) architecture employs a planar array design at the Base Station (BS) to provide high order multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) via simultaneous data transmission to large number of users. With FD-MIMO, the BS can also adjust the beam direction in both elevation and azimuth direction to concentrate the energy on the user of interests while minimizing the interference leakage to co-scheduled users in the same cell or users in the neighboring cells. In a typical highly populated macrocell environment, modelling the elevation angular characteristics of three-dimensional (3D) channel is critical to understanding the performance limits of the FD-MIMO system. In this paper, we study the throughput performance of FD-MIMO system with varying elevation angular spread and inter-element spacing using a 3D spatial channel model. Our results show that for a typical urban scenario, horizontal beamforming with correlated antenna spacing achieves optimal performance but by restricting the spread of elevation angles of departure, elevation beamforming achieves high array gain with wide inter-element spacing. We also realize significant gains due to spatial array processing via modelling the elevation domain and varying the inter-element spacing for both the transmitter and receiver.

A micromachined fluidic structure for the introduction of liquid samples into a chip-based sensor array composed of individually addressable polymeric microbeads has been developed. The structure consists of a separately attached cover glass, a single silicon chip having micromachined channels and microbead storage cavities, and a glass carver. In our sensor array, transduction occurs via colorimetric and fluorescence changes to receptors and indicator molecules that are covalently attached to termination sites on the polymeric microbeads. Data streams are acquired for each of the individual microbeads using a CCD. One of the key parts of the structure is a passive fluid introduction system driven only by capillary force. The velocity of penetration of a horizontal capillary for the device having a rectangular cross section has been derived, and it is quite similar to the Washburn Equation calculated for a pipe with a circular cross section having uniform radius. The test results show that this system is useful in a ${\mu}$-TAS and biomedical applications.

망막 촬영 및 다채널 고속 영상 획득 시스템을 개발하였다. 망막 두께 측정은 망막을 3차원으로 촬영하고 고속으로 신호처리를 할 수 있는 시스템을 요구한다. 망막에 레이저를 투사한 후에 반사되어 돌아오는 레이저의 양을 array photo diode를 이용하여 감지하며 이를 3차원 영상화하여 망막의 두께를 측정할 수 있다. 망막에 레이저를 투사하는 장치, APD 광센서를 이용한 망막 영상화 장치, 다채널 고속 A/D 변환장치 및 PCI 인터페이스를 개발하였다. polygon mirror와 galvano mirror를 이용하여 HeNe 레이저 빔을 각각 수평방향과 수직방향으로 주사하여 이미지 평면을 만들어 망막에 투사하였다. APD 어레이 광센서를 이용하여 각 층별로 나타나는 망막영상을 획득하였으며, 이를 실시간으로 A/D 변환하여 PCI 버스를 통해 컴퓨터로 전송하였다.

In this paper, the compact waveguide slot array antenna for interferometric radar altimeter is proposed. The proposed antenna structure consist of corrugation structure which is applied between each channel to improve isolation, three-channel waveguide slot array antenna and feeder. In addition, to reduce the occurrence of phase ambiguity, the baseline spacing of the three-channel antenna is analyzed and the results are applied to the design. For compact design, reduced height and SMP connector structure are used and the dip brazing method which is the conjugation method after dipping to flux is used for the fabrication of the lightweight antenna. The measurement result of the proposed antenna shows less than 1.41 : 1 (VSWR) and 48.3 dBc (isolation). The antenna gain is higher than 20.2 dBi and the side lobe levels are lower than 18.8 dB (vertical plane) and 10.0 dB (horizontal plane).

Location Service는 주로 위성을 이용한 GPS 방법에 의해 이루어진다. 그러나 스마트안테나를 쓰는 차세대이동통신시스템에서는 신호도착방향(DOA: Direction Of Arrival) 추정기법을 써서 Location Service가 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 차세대이동통신시스템에서 Location Service를 위한 DOA 추정기법에 관해 연구하고 타당성을 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해 알아본다. 먼저, 직교하는 수직$.$수평 배열처리기를 써서 퍼진신호원의 DOA 추정문제를 다룬다. 수직배열처리기에서 수직 방향의 DOA를 추정한 다음 수평배열처리기에서 순차적으로 수평방향의 DOA를 추정한다. 다음으로, 3개의 스마트안테나를 이용하여 특정 신호원의 Location Service를 수행하는 과정을 컴퓨터 모의실험으로 보임으로서 제안된 DOA 추정기법이 차세대 이동통신시스템에서 Location Service를 위해 쓰일 수 있다는 타당성을 고찰한다.

Oyster fanning structures in tidal flats are well detected by SAR system. Each frame of these artificial structures is composed of two vertical and one horizontal wooden pole. We investigate characteristics of polarimetric features in the target structures. In this paper, the results of AIRSAR L-band POLSAR data and experiments in laboratory are discussed. The ratio of single bounce to double bounce scattering depends of vertical pole height, direction of horizontal pole to radar look direction, and incidence angle as well as sea surface condition. We have conducted laboratory experiments. According to target scale, Ku-band and targets downsized by scale of 10 are used. The results of the experiments are summarized as: i) total power of the backscattering is more affected by vertical poles than a horizontal pole; ii) and backscattering from a horizontal pole is sensitive to the relative radar look direction to target array. We conclude that water level can be effectively measured by using interferometric phase and backscattering intensity if vertical poles in the water are observed by L-band HH- or VV-polarization. Measurement of tide height can be further improved if double bounced components are separated from fully polarized SAR data.

A two-dimensional lens is required to reproduce both the horizontal and vertical parallax through an autostereoscopic 3D display. Among the two-dimensional lenses, a hexagonal micro lens array (MLA) having good optical efficiency is mainly used. However, the hexagonal MLA has complex geometric features. The first feature is that the lens cells are zigzagged in the vertical direction, which should be reflected in the view number calculation for each sub-pixel. The second feature is that the four sides of a hexagonal lens cell are tilted, requiring a more careful view index assignment to the lens cell. In this paper, we propose a sub-pixel multiplexing scheme suitable for the features of the hexagonal MLA. We also propose a view-overlay algorithm based on a two-dimensional lens and compare subjective image quality with existing view-selection through autostereoscopic 3D display implementation.

The objective of this work is to elucidate the details of two key factors dominating the droplet buring behavior in sprays : droplet-droplet interaction and convective flow. The combustion of a one-dimensional linear droplet array with a convective flow has been studied. A one-step, second order model was employed to simulate the chemical reaction in the combustion process. Results for droplet arrays burning at two Reynolds numbers, 50 and 100, two horizontal droplet spacings, 5 and 11 radii, and two vertical droplet spacing, 2 and 4 radii, were obtained. The results indicate the droplet burning behavior is affected by Reynolds number, droplet-droplet spacing, and the relative location of droplets in the array. Droplet-droplet interaction was found to be strong for arrays with smaller droplet spacing.

A new slot-coupled back-to-back microstrip array antenna is proposed for using in the IMT-2000 base station or repeater antenna. This antenna is composed of symmetrical SSAIP(Strip Slot, Air Inverted Patch) It has bidirectional radiation pattern in horizontal plane and 22.5$^{\circ}$main beam squint in vertical plane. The analysis is based on the cavity model and the design is achieved using Ensemble. Experimental results for the radiation pattern and the return loss have shown that the direction of the main beam is about 21$^{\circ}$and the impedance bandwidth is approximately 22.9% Thus the proposed antenna is able to operate over both uplink and downlink frequencies in IMT-2000.
