본 논문에서는 분할 링 공진기(SRR; split-ring resonator)를 이용한 소형 코플래너 도파관(CPW; coplanar waveguide)급전 슬롯 안테나에 대한 설계 방법을 연구하였다. 제안된 슬롯 안테나는 슬롯의 길이를 줄이기 위해 사각형 모양의 SRR 도체가 슬롯 내에 장하되었다. SRR 도체와 슬롯 사이의 간격, SRR 도체의 폭의 변화에 따른 입력 반사계수 특성을 분석하여 최적의 설계 변수를 도출하였다. 2.45 GHz 대역에서 최적화된 소형 슬롯 안테나를 FR4 기판 상에 $36mm{\times}30mm$ 크기로 제작하였다. 제안된 소형 안테나는 기존의 사각형 슬롯 안테나에 비해 안테나의 길이를 14.3%로 줄여 소형화하였다. 실험 결과, 전압 정재파비(VSWR; voltage standing wave) < 2인 대역이 2.4-2.49 GHz으로 2.45 GHz 대역에서 동작하는 것을 확인하였다.

색채는 빛을 통해 인간이 시각적으로 느끼는 감각으로, 사람이 인지할 수 있는 색채인 유채색(chromatic color area)과 무채색(achromatic color area)으로 구분할 수 있다. 유채색은 색상, 명도, 채도의 속성이 존재하지만 무채색은 유채색의 속성 중 명도는 있지만 색상과 채도의 성격을 갖지 않는다. 따라서 인간의 시각에 기초하여 인간이 색채를 인지할 수 있는 영역과 인지하지 못하는 영역을 분리하는 것은 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 영상의 유채영역인 색상영역과 무채영역인 비색상영역을 분리하는 함수를 도출한다. 먼저 입력된 RGB 컬러공간의 입력영상을 인간의 시각을 고려한 HSI 컬러공간으로 변환하여 이진영상을 구한 후 색상 영역(ROC: Region of chromatic)과 비색상 영역(ROA:Region of achromatic)으로 분류하기 위한 함수를 도출한다. 일반영상에서 ROC와 ROA의 영역을 분리하기는 어려우므로 색상영역과 비색상영역을 도출하기 위해 색상값의 변화가 크지 않고 명암과 채도가 변화하는 그레디언트 영상을 생성하여 함수를 도출한다. 성능평가는 실험영상과 일반영상의 결과영상을 비숙련가 50인에게 주관적 화질평가를 실시하였으며 제안방법은 기존의 방법에 비해 27.5~32.96%가 개선되었다.

This paper presents a new resonant converter to achieve the soft switching of power devices. Two full-bridge converters are connected in series to clamp the voltage stress of power switches at V_in/2. Thus, power MOSFETs with a 500V voltage rating can be used for 800V input voltage applications. Two flying capacitors are connected on the AC side of the two full-bridge converters to automatically balance the two split input capacitor voltages in every switching cycle. Two resonant tanks are used in the proposed converter to share the load current and to reduce the current stress of the passive and active components. If the switching frequency is less than the series resonant frequency of the resonant tanks, the power MOSFETs can be turned on under zero voltage switching, and the rectifier diodes can be turned off under zero current switching. The switching losses on the power MOSFETs are reduced and the reverse recovery loss is improved. Experiments with a 1.5kW prototype are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed converter.

This paper describes real time implementation of subband sound localization system on a floating-point DSP TI TMS320C31. The system determines two dimensional location of an active speaker in a closed room environment with real noise presents. The system consists of an two microphone array connected to TI DSP hosted by PC. The implemented sound localization algorithm is Subband CPSP which is an improved version of traditional CPSP (Cross-Power Spectrum Phase) method. The algorithm first split the input speech signal into arbitrary number of subband using subband filter banks and calculate the CPSP in each subband. It then averages out the CPSP results on each subband and compute a source location estimate. The proposed algorithm has an advantage over CPSP such that it minimize the overall estimation error in source location by limiting the specific band dominant noise to that subband. As a result, it makes possible to set up a robust real time sound localization system. For real time simulation, the input speech is captured using two microphone and digitized by the DSP at sampling rate 8192 hz, 16 bit/sample. The source location is then estimated at once per second to satisfy real-time computational constraints. The performance of the proposed system is confirmed by several real time simulation of the speech at a distance of 1m, 2m, 3m with various speech source locations and it shows over 5% accuracy improvement for the source location estimation.

In this paper, a wind turbine with power splitting transmission, which is realized through a novel three-shaft planetary, is presented. The input shaft of the transmission is driven by the rotor of the wind turbine, the output shaft is connected to the grid via the main generator (asynchronous generator), and the third shaft is driven by a control motor with variable speed. The dynamic models of the sub systems of this wind turbine, e.g. the rotor aerodynamics, the drive train dynamics and the power generation unit dynamics, were given and linearized at an operating point. These sub models were integrated in a multidisciplinary dynamic model, which is suitable for control syntheses to optimize the utilization of wind energy and to reduce the excessive dynamic loads. The important dynamic behaviours were investigated and a wind turbine with a soft main shaft was recommend.

Analysis of brake characteristics has progressed rapidly in recent years, as computer techniques have developed. However, there are many problems in predicting braking characteristics, due to the numerous design variables of the brake system. Therefore, a synthetic braking performance analysis is required for all brake system parts such as master cylinder, booster, control valve and split system. In this paper, a program which can analyze braking performance such as force distribution, braking efficiency, pedal force and pedal travel, is presented. The preprocessor of the program helps users prepare input files through a dialog box. An additional postprocessor makes the graph presentation of solved results. Also, a simple example problem is applied to show the usefulness of the presented program.

This paper presents an efficient fast motion estimation algorithm and image segmentation method for low bit-rate coding. First, with region split information, the algorithm splits the image having homogeneous and semantic regions like face and semantic regions in image. Then, in these regions, We find the motion vector using adaptive search window adjustment. Additionally, with this new segment based fast motion estimation, we reduce blocking artifacts by intensively coding our interesting region(face or arm) in input image. The simulation results show the improvement in coding performance and image quality.

Continuously variable transmission(CVT) mechanisms considered here combine the functions of a K-H-V type differential gear unit and a V-belt type continuously variable unit(CVU). As combining the functions of a K-H-V type differential gear unit and a V-belt type CVU, 24 different mechanisms are presented. Some useful theoretical formula related to speed ratio, power flow and efficiency are derived and analyzed. These mechanisms have many advantages which are the decrease of CVT size, the increase of overall efficiency, the extension of speed ratio range, and the generation of geared neutral.

In this paper, attempts have been made to compare the subjective performance of sub-band coding (SBC) techniques incorporating four representative modulation transfer functions (MTF's) of th human visual system(HVS): Sakrison, Nill, Ngan, and Rao. In SBC, the frequency band of input signal is split into 16 equal sub-bands. In addition, 28 sub-band splitting schemd which splits more sub-bands in low spatial frequency is considered to compare the 4 MTF's effectively. In encoding of each sub-band, the weight of each sub-band obtained from the MTF of HVS is applied to bit allocation process which minimize the weighted mean square error (WMSE). The differential pulse code modulation(DPCM) coder is used to encode the lowest sub-band and the pulse code modulation(PCM) coder is used for the rest of sub-bands. It is found that the images incorporating the MTF of Rao yields the best results in subjective criteria, followed by Ngan, Nill, Sakrison, and the images not employing the HVS.
