Although there have been lack of studies using X-band SAR data particularly for forestry application as compared to C-, and L-band SAR data, it has a potential to distinguish tree species because most signals are backscattered on the top of canopy. This study aimed to compare signal characteristics of multi-band SAR data including X-band for classifying tree species. The data used for the study are SIR-C/X-SAR data (X-, C-, L-band) obtained on Oct. 3, 1994 over the forest area near Seoul, S. Korea. Thirty ground sample plots were collected per each tree species. Initial comparison of backscattering coefficients among three SAR bands shows that X-band data showed better separation of tree species than C- and L-band SAR data irrespective of polarization. The weak penetrating in canopy layer might be possible source of information for X-band data to be useful for the classification of forest species and cover type mapping.

In this paper, Analyzed Performance of TH/UWB(Time Hopping/Ultra Wideband after Impulse Radio) system in interference environment by existing system that use same frequency band. In case interference fraction ratio is below 0.1, consider and analyzed in case influence through interference in IR system that is shared in 3.1 - 10.6 GHz band hereafter as case that use very small and narrow band than IR system such as 80 MHz bandwidth of ISM band or 802.1la's use bandwidth 20 MHz in 5 GHz band. According to result, we could know that Performance change according to possession band width of interference shows greatly than size of interference electric power. Also, interference fraction ratio is big (more than 0.1) narrowband interference in partial band interference environment, could get Performance improvement of big width increasing pulse repetition number. But, could know that do not influence hardly in system performance when interference fraction ratio is small (below 0.1) narrowband interference. Therefore, may receive the best system performance and transfer efficiency by set the most suitable pulse repetition number according to bandwidth fraction ratio of interference through correct interference fraction ratio estimation and apply proper interference suppression techniques.

This paper reports treatment effect by Thera-Band for two cases of Frozen shoulder. The purpose of study was to introduce treatment effect by Thera-Band for frozen shoulder. Case 1 Total amount of an increase of range of motion of shoulder joint were about 55 degrees in flexion, 60 degrees in abduction and 50 degrees in external rotation and the majority of those improvements were accomplished during three weeks of treatment by Thera-Band. Case 2 Range of motion of shoulder joint were accomplished Normal Range of Motion during one week of treatment by Thera-Band.

DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting)는 기존 아날로 그 방식 AM과 FM 라디오 방송의 한계와 문제점을 극복하고 CD 수준 음질의 오디오를 포함한 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하는 차세대 라디오 방송이다. DAB는 전송 주파수 대역에 따라 기존의 FM/AM 대역과 다른 새로운 대역을 사용하는 Out-of-Band 방식과 기존의 FM/AM 대역을 사용하는 In-Band 방식으로 분류할 수 있다. Out-of-Band 방식으로는 유럽의 Eureka-147과 일본의 협대역 ISDB-T(Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Terrestrial) 방식이 있으며, In-Band 방식은 미국의 USADR(USA Digital Radio)사와 LDR(Lucent Digital Radio)사가 개발하고 있는 IBOC(In-Band On Channel) 방식과 국내 한국전자통신연구원(ETRI)에서 개발 중인 IBAC(In-Band Adjacent Channel) 방식이 있다. 본 고에서는 DAB의 전송 주파수 대역에 따른 방식별 특성을 고찰하고 유럽, 일본, 미국과 국내에서 상용화 서비스 또는 개발되고 있는 DAB 시스템의 기술동향을 분석 한다.

The study discussed the link analysis for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea with respect to the transmission schemes based on the DVB-S2 standard. To analyze the effect of the rain fading to the link budget, we estimated the rain attenuation from the measured rainfall intensity in Korea. We analyzed the link budget for the Ka band transponders of Koreasat-3, and DirecTV BSS-99W, and showed the possible link availability with the DVB-S2 transmission schemes for each transponder. Based on the link analysis of the available satellites with the Ka band transponders, we suggested the required EIRP for the satellite which will be employed for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea.

In this paper, we show the design of a rotary joint transition for the X-band channel in a rotatable microwave communication system. The transition seems complicated to make a channel between two coaxial cables through a cylindrical waveguide. To make a broad-band performance in the X-band with low insertion loss and return loss given the constraint on the length and radius of this complicated-looking cylindrical structure, Genetic Algorithm optimization is adopted to check the validity of an intensive parametric study in the design. The structure is fabricated and tested to show how valid the design method is as well as good frequency responses.

The broadband power detector for direct- onversion Six-port output circuit was designed and implementaed in this paper. The power detector should linearly operated to produce the linear amplitude and phase signal fer input RF signal in required broadband. So, the power detector should be designed under conditions of matching circuit with low VSWR. The designed power detectors, which were implemented in L-band with 50 ohm matching and Ku-band with matching circuit and isolator, respectively, were evaluated in the performances.

The algorithm of multiple channel signal processing requires the flexibility of variable frequency band, efficient allocation of transmission power, and flexible frequency band reallocation to satisfy various service types which requires different transmission rates and frequency band. There are three methods including per-channel approach, multiple tree approach, and block approach performing frequency band reallocation method by channelization and dechannelization in the multiple-channel signal. This paper proposes an improved per-channel approach for converting the frequency band of multiple carrier signals efficiently. The proposed algorithm performs decimation and interpolation using CIC(cascaded integrator comb filter), half-band filter, and FIR filter. In addition, it performs filtering of each sub-channel, and reallocates channel band through FIR low-pass filter in the multiple-channel signal. The computer simulation result shows that the perfect reconstruction of output signal and the flexible frequency band reallocation is performed efficiently by the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a multi-band antenna for wearable devices using metal frame coupling. The proposed antenna has a $45mm{\times}35mm$ antenna using metal frame and a ground dual coupling structure. The proposed multi-band antenna in this paper is optimized for small devices such as wearable devices. By using the metal frame as a part of the antenna, the volume of the antenna is reduced and satisfies under VSWR 3:1 impedance bandwidth of 70 MHz (870 ~ 940 MHz) in low frequency band, 280 MHz (1600 ~ 1880 MHz) and 280 MHz (1900 ~ 2170 MHz) in high frequency band. It also verified the applicability of wearable devices by measuring wireless performance indicators such as TRP/TIS.

On the study of the characteristics and life cycle of mesoscale convective band in type of airmass that occurred in the Honam area from June to September for only 4 years in the period of 2009~2012, 10 examples based on the amount of rainfall with AWS 24 hours/60 minutes rainfalls, Mt. Osung radar 1.5 km CAPPI/X-SECT images and KLAPS data for convective band with heavy rainfall event were selected. There were analyzed and classified by using the convective band with heavy rainfall occurred along the convergence line of sea wind in the form of individual multi-cellular cell and moving direction of convective band appeared in a variety of patterns; toward southwestern (2 cases), northeastern (4 cases), congesting (2 cases), and changing its moving direction (2 cases). The case study dated of the 17th Aug. 2012 was chosen and implemented by sequentially different evolution of its shape along the convergence line of sea wind cell and moving direction of convective band as equivalent potential temperatures at the lower layer have increased to the upper layer 500 hPa, that the individual cells were developed vertically and horizontally through their merger, but owing to divergence caused by weakened rainfall and descending air current, the growth of new cell was inhibited resulting in dissipation of convective cells.
