This research aimed (1) to study and analyze the ability of current information retrieval (IR) systems based on views of information behavior (IB), and (2) to propose a conceptual framework for an IB model based on the collaboration between the system and user, with the intent of developing an IR system that can apply intelligent techniques to enhance system efficiency. The methods in this study consisted of (1) document analysis which included studying the characteristics and efficiencies of the current IR systems and studying the IB models in the digital environment, and (2) implementation of the Delphi technique through an indepth interview method with experts. The research results were presented in three main parts. First, the IB model was categorized into eight stages, different from traditional IB, in the digital environment, which can correspond to all behaviors and be applied to with an IR system. Second, insufficient functions and log file storage hinder the system from effectively understanding and accommodating user behavior in the digital environment. Last, the proposed conceptual framework illustrated that there are stages that can add intelligent techniques to the IR system based on the collaboration perspective between the user and system to boost the users' cognitive ability and make the IR system more user-friendly. Importantly, the conceptual framework for the IB model based on the collaboration perspective between the user and system for IR assisted the ability of information systems to learn, recognize, and comprehend human IB according to individual characteristics, leading to enhancement of interaction between the system and users.

We describe a common optical system that merges a LADAR system, which generates a point cloud, and a more traditional imaging system operating in the LWIR, which generates image data. The optimum diameter of the entrance pupil was determined by analysis of detection ranges of the LADAR sensor, and the result was applied to design a common optical system using LADAR sensors and LWIR sensors; the performance of these sensors was then evaluated. The minimum detectable signal of the $128{\times}128-pixel$ LADAR detector was calculated as 20.5 nW. The detection range of the LADAR optical system was calculated to be 1,000 m, and according to the results, the optimum diameter of the entrance pupil was determined to be 15.7 cm. The modulation transfer function (MTF) in relation to the diffraction limit of the designed common optical system was analyzed and, according to the results, the MTF of the LADAR optical system was 98.8% at the spatial frequency of 5 cycles per millimeter, while that of the LWIR optical system was 92.4% at the spatial frequency of 29 cycles per millimeter. The detection, recognition, and identification distances of the LWIR optical system were determined to be 5.12, 2.82, and 1.96 km, respectively.

본 논문에서는 국내 ETC(Electronic Toll Collection)인 한국도로공사의 하이패스 시스템의 보급에 힘입어 2008년 현재까지 약 125만대가 보급되어 있는 IR(Infrared)/RF(Radio Frequency)-DSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication)를 BIS(Bus Information System) 혹은 UTIS(Urban Traffic Information System)와 같은 보다 향상되고, 많은 차량 단말(OBE; On Board Equipment)을 제어해야 하는 시스템에 사용하기 위한 척도로써 IR/RF-DSRC의 전송 효율에 관한 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 평가하고, 각 시스템의 장단점을 찾아보고자 한다. 특히 DSRC는 짝은 통신 영역에서 높은 이동도를 갖는 개체에게 고속의 데이터를 전송하여야 한다는 점에서 일반적인 통신 시스템에 비해 MAC(Media Access Control)의 속성이 가장 중하다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 매체 접근성의 관점에서 IR/RF-DSRC, 두 시스템의 성능을 분석하고자 한다.

This paper proposes a line laser thermography scanning (LLTS) system for multiple crack evaluation on a concrete structure, as the core technology for unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted crack inspection. The LLTS system consists of a line shape continuous-wave laser source, an infrared (IR) camera, a control computer and a scanning jig. The line laser generates thermal waves on a target concrete structure, and the IR camera simultaneously measures the corresponding thermal responses. By spatially scanning the LLTS system along a target concrete structure, multiple cracks even in a large scale concrete structure can be effectively visualized and evaluated. Since raw IR data obtained by scanning the LLTS system, however, includes timely- and spatially-varying IR images due to the limited field of view (FOV) of the LLTS system, a novel time-spatial-integrated (TSI) coordinate transform algorithm is developed for precise crack evaluation in a static condition. The proposed system has the following technical advantages: (1) the thermal wave propagation is effectively induced on a concrete structure with low thermal conductivity of approximately 0.8 W/m K; (2) the limited FOV issues can be solved by the TSI coordinate transform; and (3) multiple cracks are able to be visualized and evaluated by normalizing the responses based on phase mapping and spatial derivative processes. The proposed LLTS system is experimentally validated using a concrete specimen with various cracks. The experimental results reveal that the LLTS system successfully visualizes and evaluates multiple cracks without false alarms.

For the fabrication of high efficient bifunctional electrocatalyst of oxygen electrode for PEM URFC (Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Unitized Regenerative Fuel Cell), which is a promising energy storage and conversion system using hydrogen as the energy medium, several bifunctional electrocatalysts were prepared and tested in a single cell URFC system. The catalysts for oxygen electrode revealed fuel cell performance in the order of Pt black > PtIr > PtRuOx > PtRu ~ PtRuIr > PtIrOx, whereas water electrolysis performance in the order of PtIr ~ PtIrOx > PtRu > PtRuIr > PtRuOx ~ Pt black. Considering both reaction modes PtIr was the most effective elctrocatalyst for oxygen electrode of present PEM URFC system. In addition, the water electrolysis performance was significantly improved when Ir or IrOx was added to Pt black just 1 wt.% without the decrease of fuel cell performance. Based on the catalyst screening and the optimization of catalyst composition and loading, the optimum catalyst electrodes for PEM URFC were $1.0mg/cm^2$ of Pt black as hydrogen electrode and $2.0mg/cm^2$ of PtIr (99:1) as oxygen electrode.

To develop a high-resolution electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) payload to be mounted on a high-speed and performance fighter aircraft in an external POD for acquiring daytime and nighttime image information on tactical targets, simulations, including flight environments and maneuvers, should be performed. Such simulations are pertinent to predicting the performance of several variables, such as aerodynamic force and inertia load acting on the payload. This paper describes the development of a flight data acquisition and analysis system based on flight simulation software (SW) for mission simulation of super-maneuverability fighter equipped with EO/IR payload. The effectiveness of the system is verified through comparison with actual flight data. The proposed flight data acquisition and analysis system based on FlightGear can be used as an M&S tool for system performance analysis in the development of the EO/IR payload.

본 논문에서는 간단한 형태의 적분기와 1-비트 ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter)로 구성된 AFE (Analog Front End)를 사용하는 Noncoherent IR-UWB (Impulse Radio-Ultra Wide Band) 레인징 (Ranging) 시스템을 제시하고, 레인징 성능에 영향을 주는 AFE 특성에 대해 정의한다. 이 레인징 시스템에서 적분기는 단순히 수신된 신호의 에너지만을 축적하며, 다중 비트 ADC를 필요로 하는 Coherent IR-UWB 시스템과는 달리 1-비트 ADC를 사용하게 되므로, 시스템 구현 측면에서 현실적이고 매우 용이하다고 할 수 있다. 반면, Noncoherent 방식의 특성상 수신 신호를 단순히 제곱하여 적분하게 되므로, 잡음과 다중경로 페이딩 등의 채널 특성에 따라 레인징 정밀도는 큰 영향을 받게 된다. 그러나 이러한 현실적인 중요성에도 불구하고, 현재까지의 IR-UWB 레인징 시스템 연구에서는 AFE 특성 변화에 따른 성능 분석에 관한 결과는 거의 제시되지 않고 있다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 Noncoherent IR-UWB 레인징 시스템을 사용하는 경우 다양한 무선 채널 환경에서 AFE 특성 변화에 따른 레인징 성능을 분석한다. 또한 이를 통해 실제 UWB 하드웨어를 설계할 경우 규격 설정에 고려해야 할 파라미터들을 제시한다.

For future space IR missions, such as SPICA, it is crucial to establish an experimental method for evaluating the performance of mid-IR detectors. In particular, the wavelength dependence of the sensitivity is important but difficult to be measured properly. We are now preparing a testing system for mid-IR Si:As/Si:Sb detectors on SPICA. We have designed a cryogenic optical system in which IR signal light from a pinhole is collimated, passed through an optical filter, and focused onto a detector. With this system, we can measure the photoresponse of the detector for various IR light using optical filters with different wavelength properties. We have fabricated aluminum mirrors which are adopted to minimize thermal distortion effects and evaluated the surface figure errors. The total wavefront error of the optical system is $1.3{\mu}m$ RMS, which is small enough for the target wavelengths ($20-37{\mu}m$) of SPICA. The point spread function measured at a room temperature is consistent with that predicted by the simulation. We report the optical performance of the system at cryogenic temperatures.
