The purpose of this study is to observe the brain activity patterns during visual oddball tasks with two difficulty levels by the analysis of high-density event-related potential (ERP). Along with conventional statistical analysis of averaged ERP waveforms, we applied independent component analysis (ICA) for the individual, single-trial analysis and verified its effectiveness. We could identify multiple ERP components such as early visual components (P1, N1), and two components which seem to be important task-related components and showed difficulty-dependent variability (P2, P300). The P2 was found around central region at $180{\sim}220ms$, and the P300 was found globally at $300{\sim}500ms$ poststimulus. As the task became difficult, the P2 amplitude increased, and the P300 amplitude decreased. After single-trial ERPs were decomposed into multiple independent components (ICs), several ICs resulting from P2 and P300 sources were identified. These ICs were projected onto scalp electrodes and the projected ICs were statistically compared according to two task difficulties. For most subjects, the results obtained from single-trial/individual analysis using ICA gave the tendencies of amplitude change that are similar to the averaged ERP analysis for most subjects. The temporal pattern and number of ICs corresponding to ${\mu}$ rhythm was not dependent on the task difficulty. It seems that the motor response was not affected by the task difficulty.

The radio communications by SSB and VHF transceivers are still used very efficiently in coast stations and military base stations. The communication system by the conventional SSB and VHF transceivers between a coast station and a terminal is an one-to-one system. In this dissertation, however, the conventional one-to-one system is expanded to one-to-multiple systems. Then, frequencies can be used effectively for distress, urgency, safety traffic, and military communications. An ICS has been proposed and added, in this dissertation, to the conventional SSB and VHF communication systems, which can realize one-to- several terminal communications. The line switching system by the ICS is to be remote-controlled by ASK modulated PTT signals and audio signals. An ICS can change a connection between terminal and transceiver through a circuit switching system at any time. For this purpose, the author has researched and developed a ASK transmission system, ICS system, control algorithm, multiprocessor system, and moni-toring system. As a conclusion, the developed line switching control systems and equipments can be used effectively for maritime communication, military communication, fishery communication, etc.

It is essential to develop an estimation and cancellation algorithm for feedback signals in designing the interference cancellation systems (ICS) as a solution to extending the coverage of the TDD LTE networks. Unlike the radio access of FDD LTE networks, TDD networks utilize the same frequency band in downlink and uplink for radio access. For this reason, downlink and uplink are repeated in time and thus the estimation of the feedback signals in uplink and downlink, respectively, is periodically paused to cause performance degradation. In this study, the reciprocity of downlink and uplink is examined through experiments and exploiting the same frequency band in uplink and downlink, an efficient channel estimation and elimination algorithm is proposed since the algorithm utilizes the same structure for both downlink and uplink.

Industrial control systems (ICS) are increasingly targeted by security incidents as attackers' knowledge of ICS characteristics grows and their connectivity to information technology expands. Vulnerabilities related to ICS are growing rapidly, but patching all vulnerabilities in a timely manner is challenging. The common vulnerability assessment system used to patch vulnerabilities has limitations as it does not consider weaponization after discovery. To address this, this study defines criteria for classifying attacker skill levels based on open information including operating technology and vulnerability information in ICS. The study also proposes a method to evaluate vulnerability severity that reflects actual risk and urgency by incorporating the corresponding attribute in the existing severity score calculation. Case studies based on actual accidents involving vulnerabilities were conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the evaluation method in the ICS environment.

본 논문에서는 현재 상용화 되어있는 WCDMA용 ICS (Interference Cancellation System) 중계기의 성능 개선을 위한 개선된 LMS 알고리즘을 연구하였다. ICS 중계기의 수신으로 입력되는 신호는 수신 신호와 궤환되어 입력되는 신호로 구성된다. 이렇게 입력되는 궤환 신호를 LMS와 같은 적응형 채널 추정 알고리즘을 통해 제거하는 기술이 ICS 중계기의 핵심 요소이다. 중계기의 저비용 및 단순화를 위해서는 기존에 사용되어온 적응형 채널 추정 알고리즘의 단순화가 필요하다. 실험을 통해 기존 NLMS 알고리즘 및 계산 복잡도 감소를 위해 수정된 LMS 알고리즘을 MSE (Mean Square Error) 기준에서 성능 비교를 하였다.

The detection of face in color images is important for many multimedia applications. It is the first step for face recognition and ran be used for classifying specific shots. In this paper describes a new method to detect faces in color images based on the skin color and hair color. In the first step of the processing, regions of the human skin color and head color are extracted and those regions are found by their color information. Then we converted binary scale from the image. Then we are connected regions in a binary image by label. In the next step we are found regions of interesting by their region information and some conditions.

In this work, we show that the excessive lattice heating problem due to parasitic pnp transistor action in the diode electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device in the diode input protection circuit, which is favorably used in CMOS RF ICs, can be solved by adopting a symmetrical cathode structure. To explain how the recipe works, we construct an equivalent circuit for input human-body model (HBM) test environment of a CMOS chip equipped with the diode protection circuit, and execute mixed-mode transient simulations utilizing a 2-dimensional device simulator. We attempt an in-depth comparison study by varying device structures to suggest valuable design guidelines in designing the protection diodes connected to the $V_{DD}$ and $V_{SS}$ buses. Even though this work is based on mixed-mode simulations utilizing device and circuit simulators, the analysis given in this work clearly explain the mechanism involved, which cannot be done by measurements.

A slew-rate control method of LCD driver ICs is introduced to increase uniformity between adjacent driver ICs and reduce power consumption. The slew rate of every voltage follower is calibrated by a feedback algorithm during the non-displaying period. Under normal operation mode, the slew rate is dynamically controlled for improving power efficiency. Experimental results show that the power consumption is reduced by 16% with a white pattern and by 10% with a black pattern, and display defects are successfully eliminated.

In this paper, we propose a robust indirect adaptive fuzzy state feedback regulator based on Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model. The proposed adaptive fuzzy regulator is less sensitive to singularity than the conventional one based on the feedback linearization method. Furthermore, the proposed control method is applicable to not only plants with a perfect model but also plants with an imperfect model, which causes uncertainties. We verify the global stability of the proposed method by using Lyapunov method. In order to support the achievement, the application of the proposed adaptive fuzzy regulator to the control of a nonlinear system under the external disturbance is presented and the performance was verified by some simulation result.

A composite adaptive dual fuzzy controller combining the approximate mathematical model, linguistic model description, linguistic control rules and identification modeling error into a single adaptive fuzzy controller is developed for a nonlinear system. It ensures the system output tracks the desired reference value and excites the plant sufficiently for accelerating the parameter estimation process so that the control performances are greatly improved. Using the Lyapunov synthesis approach, proposed controller is analyzed and simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.
