We report an experimental demonstration of 40 Gbps all-optical 3R regeneration with all-optical clock recovery based on InP semiconductor devices. We also obtain alloptical non-return-to-zero to return-to-zero (NRZ-to-RZ) format conversion using the recovered clock signal at 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps. It leads to a good performance using a Mach-Zehnder interferometric wavelength converter and a self-pulsating laser diode (LD). The self-pulsating LD serves a recovered clock, which has an rms timing jitter as low as sub-picosecond. In the case of 3R regeneration of RZ data, we achieve a 1.0 dB power penalty at $10^{-9}$ BER after demultiplexing 40 Gbps to 10 Gbps with an eletroabsorption modulator. The regenerated 3R data shows stable error-free operation with no BER floor for all channels. The combination of these functional devices provides all-optical 3R regeneration with NRZ-to-RZ conversion.

As 4.0 industry has been developed, research on a self-driving car technology and related parts of an automobile has been highly investigated recently. Particularly, a TAS(Torque Angle Sensor) module on steering wheel system has been considered as a key technology because of its precise angle, torque detection and high speed signal processing. The environmental assessment is generally required on the TAS module to examine high resolution of angle/torque detection. In the case of existing TAS module, angle detection errors has been occurred by back-lash on main and sub gear in addition to complicated structure caused by gears. In this paper, a structure of the TAS module, which minimizes the numbers of components and angle detection errors on the module compared with the existing TAS module, for vehicle steering system based on a Multi-track Encoder has been proposed. Also, angle detection signal processing board, and key technology of the TAS module were fabricated and evaluated. As a result of the experiments, we confirmed an excellent performance of the fabricated signal processing board for angle detection and an applicability of the fabricated angle detection board on the TAS module of vehicles by the environmental assessment an automobile standard.

ZnO 바리스터는 정전기 및 순간적인 surge로부터 전자기기 및 전자회로 등을 보호하기 위해 개발된 전자 세라믹스 소재이다. 최근 전자기기 등의 고속통신 추세에 따라 ZnO 바리스터는 높은 비선형 특성과 함께 보다 낮은 유전율 및 유전손실 특성이 특별히 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현재 양산되고 있는 Bi-계와 Pr-계 ZnO 바리스터가 아닌 새로운 조성계를 이용하여 Y 첨가량(0.1~3.0 at%)에 따른 ZnO 바리스터의 전기적 특성과 유전 특성을 살펴보았다. 시편은 일반적인 세라믹 공정에 따라 제조하여 $1200^{\circ}C$에서 3 시간 공기 중에서 소결하였으며, 소결 및 전기적 특성과 유전 특성(밀도, 미세구조, I-V 특성, 유전율, 유전손실, ZnO grain 비저항)은 FE-SEM, Keithley237, Agilent 4294a 및 Agilent 4991a 장비를 사용하여 Y 함량에 따른 ZnO 바리스터의 특성 변화를 고찰하였다. 그 결과, Y이 2.0 at% 첨가한 계의 바리스터 특성이 가장 우수하였다. 보다 구체적으로 살펴보면 다음과 같다. Y 함량이 증가함에 따라 상대밀도는 94~96%로 증가하였으며, 평균입경은 증가하였다. 또한 유전율은 580~215 (at 1 MHz)로 Y 함량이 증가할수록 낮아졌다. 이를 통하여 새로운 바리스터 조성계에서 Y의 첨가 효과에 대하여 논하였다.

In this study, we demonstrated Fourier-domain/swept-source optical coherence tomography (FD/SS-OCT) at a center wavelength of 800 nm for in vivo human retinal imaging. A wavelength-swept source was constructed with a semiconductor optical amplifier, a fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter, isolators, and a fiber coupler in a ring cavity. Our swept source produced a laser output with a tuning range of 42 nm (779 to 821 nm) and an average power of 3.9 mW. The wavelength-swept speed in this configuration with bidirectionality is 2,000 axial scans per second. In addition, we suggested a modified zero-crossing method to achieve equal sample spacing in the wavenumber (k) domain and to increase the image depth range. FD/SS-OCT has a sensitivity of ~89.7 dB and an axial resolution of 10.4 ${\mu}m$ in air. When a retinal image with 2,000 A-lines/frame is obtained, an acquisition speed of 2.0 fps is achieved.

Broadcasting telecommunication convergence service means a service where broadcasting and telecommunication converge. Recently with the advancement of technology, broadcasting telecommunication convergence service has been evolving to provide multimedia contents through various devices including wired and wireless network environment. Up to now, IPTV and smartphone-based convergence services have been dominant, but more developed and evolved technology and media will appear in the future. In order to derive the next generation broadcasting telecommunication convergence service supporting model, this study derives an evaluation model of broadcasting telecommunication convergence service and presents a case of evaluation of 30 demonstration projects supported by the Korean government from 2010 to 2014. In this study, we derive an evaluation model and evaluate the demonstration projects by reflecting the position of the main stake holders of service such as users, experts, and related organizational institutions, away from the existing simple service evaluation method. Expert questionnaire used AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, and the evaluation results were divided into upper and lower groups to provide key implications by a gap analysis. From this analysis this study suggests guidelines for next generation broadcasting telecommunication service support projects. The next generation broadcasting convergence service business should be based on open platform type in terms of service type. In terms of service media, it should be centered on open devices such as smart phones and smart TVs. In terms of types of business responsibilities, it should be led by public organizations and it is necessary to increase the fund matching ratio by at least 62% when the private sector participates.

In the new era of the 4th industrial revolution, new jobs using the latest technologies such as big data, cloud, IoT, and AI are increasing. In the field of various industries, talents who can converge IT and industrial fields are needed, but such convergence-type talents are insufficient. This study analyzed the effects of IT convergence startup education on the learning effect and educational performance of trainees preparing for re-employment. A survey was conducted with 160 trainees preparing for reemployment. Frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using the analysis tool SPSS 22.0 program. As a result of the study, first, in the IT convergence startup education of trainees who are preparing for re-employment, it was found that the sub-factors such as education content, instructor, and member satisfaction had a positive effect on the learning effect. Second, in the IT convergence start-up education for employment trainees, it was found that the sub-factors such as education contents, instructors, and the satisfaction of learning members had a significant effect on educational performance. It is expected that this study will serve as a basic data for preparing a start-up support system to revitalize start-ups in the IT convergence field.

A connected component analysis from a binary image is a popular character segmentation method but occasionally fails to segment the characters owing to image noise and uneven illumination. A multimethod binarization scheme that incorporates two or more binary images is a novel solution, but selection of binarization methods has never been analyzed before. This paper reveals the best combination of binarization methods and parameters and presents an in-depth analysis of the multimethod binarization scheme for better character segmentation. We carry out an extensive quantitative evaluation, which shows a significant improvement over conventional single-method binarization methods. Experiment results of six binarization methods and their combinations with different test images are presented.
