For the research of solar EUV (extreme ultraviolet) radiation, we have designed a small-sifted engineering model of solar EUV telescope, which is suitable for a Korean satellite. The EUV sole. telescope was designed to observe the sun at $584.3AA$(He I) and $629.7AA$(OV) The optical system is an f/8 Ritchey-Chr rien, and the effective diameter and focal length are 80mm and 640mm, respectively. The He I and 0V filters are loaded in a filter wheel. In the detection part, the MCP (Microchannel Plate) type is Z-stack, and the channel-to-diameter radio is 40:1. MCP and CCD are connected by fiber optic taper. A commercial optical design software is used for the analysis of the optical system design.

A self-biased CMOS current reference is described which provides supply and temperature independent bias current. The supply independency is obtained by subtracting two bias currents which have the same supply dependency. Unlike the conventional self-bias CMOS current reference, excellent supply independency can be obtained even with the minimum channel length devices and thus smaller area implementation becomes possible. The supply independent bias current is then applied to a temperature compensating circuit and as a result supply and temperature independent bias current is obtained. The current reference has been implemented in a $0.25{\mu}m$ standard CMOS technology. The active silicon area is only $45{\mu}m{\times}45{\mu}m$. The simulated temperature coefficient is 64ppm/$^{\circ}C$ in temperature range between $0^{\circ}C$ and $120^{\circ}C$. Supply voltage can be as low as 1.3V and the supply dependency of the current reference is measured to be smaller than 4500ppm/V. While providing $10.25{\mu}A$ output current, the current reference consumes $160{\mu}W$.

In this paper, we analyzed the performance improvement of the DS-CDMA/dPSK cellular mobile communication system with CCI canceller and RAKE receiver techniques in mobile radio channel which is characterized by AWGN, Multi-user interference (mUI) and frequency-selective rayleigh fading. System capacity i.e., number of user per cell has been derived and the evaluated results are shown in figuraes as a function of PN code sequence length, number of RAKE receiver tap, BER and E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$. The voice activity factor is assumed to be 3/8 the number of sectors in a cell 3 and MUI is modeled as gaussian process. From the results, the capacity of the DS-CDMA/DPSK cellular mobile communication system is improved by adopting CCI canceller. When we adopt the RAKE receiver to mitigate the multipath fading, the error performance is improved and the amount of improvement is proportional ot the number of taps L in the case that each tap contains a signal component and the better of improvement can be obtained, the smaller of the SNR difference in each tap. The system capacity is more increased when the CCI canceller and the RAKE receiver is used in cascade.

In the current flow visualization studies, the role of non-Newtonian characteristics (such as shearra to dependent viscosity and viscoelasticity ) on flow behavior across the sudden ex- pansion step in a circular pipe as a model for blood flow experiments is investigated over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The expansion ratios tested are 2.000 and 2.667 and the range of the Reynolds number covered in the current flow visualization tests are 10~35, 000 based on the inlet. diameter. The reattachment longuEs for the viscoelastic fluids in the lami- nar flow regime are found to be much shorter than those for the Newtonian fluid. In addition it decreases significantly with increasing concentration of viscoelastic fluids at the same Reynolds number. However, in the turbulent flow regime, the reattachment length for the viscoelastic fluids Is two or three times longer than those for water, and gradually increases with increasing concentration of viscoelastic solutions, resulting In 25 and 28 step-height dis- tances for 500 and 1, 000 lpm ployacrylamide solutions, respectively. This may be due to the fact that the elasticity in pobacrylamide solutions suppresses the eddy motion and controls separation and reattachment behavior in the sudden expansion pips flow.

This work designs an eighteen-channel bidirectional Intensity Modulation with Direct Detection (IM/DD) Wavelength Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) system. The proposed system meets the requirement of the ITU-T 5G fronthaul link suggested design in G-series Recommendations-Supplement 66. The newly designed system, with a 25Gb/s/λ data rate (450Gbps as a system capacity), has been tested and simulated using OptiSystem V.19 software. The system has been evaluated by the BER with respect to variable the optical span and CW laser power. Based on the ITU-T recommendations, the simulation results demonstrate that this system might be used as an F1 and as an Fx 5G fronthaul link for functional split choices starting from options 1 to 7a. These options are required under 25Gbps/λ for each upstream and downstream link direction. Furthermore, the proposed system utilized a bidirectional single-mode optical fiber within short optical spans of up to 10 km. The proposed system is characterized by a low-cost, simple, DSP-free and amplifier-free system with a reasonable system capacity.

Current mismatch in a charge pump causes degradation in spectral purity of the phase locked loops(PLLs), such as reference spurs. The current mismatch can be reduced by increasing the output resistance of the charge pump, as in a cascoded output stage. However as the supply voltage is lowered, it is hard to stack transistors. In this paper, a new method for reducing the current mismatch is proposed. The proposed method is based on a feed-forward compensation for the channel length modulation effect of the output stage. The new method has been demonstrated through simulations on typical $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS circuits.

To improve the number of simultaneous transmissions of machine-to-machine traffic in a spread spectrum ALOHA channel, we propose a new spreading technique called doubly truncated cyclic code shift keying (DTCCSK). By truncating the codeset of cyclic code shift keying, DTCCSK freely adjusts the spreading factor and the symbol length. As a result, DTCCSK exhibits both a high spectral efficiency of M-ary signaling and low implementation complexity of a direct sequence.

This study investigated a compact regenerative evaporative cooler (REC). To achieve practical applications of an REC, it is very important to consider the compactness as well as the cooling performance. Therefore, a prototype of the REC was designed and fabricated to improve the compactness by reducing the length through the insertion of fins in both the dry and wet channels. The REC prototype was tested in terms of performance evaluation under various operating conditions. An analytical model was also developed to analyze the effects of the axial conduction through the solid body of the REC, the wetness of the surface in the wet channel, and the thermal capacity of the evaporation water flow. The model was validated by comparing the results of a simulation with experimental data. The numerical simulation was based on the model to analyze the performance of the REC and to suggest methods to improve the cooling performance of the REC. Finally, the performance of the present REC was compared to that obtained in previous experimental studies. The results showed that the REC prototype in the present study is the most compact and achieves the highest cooling performance.

Vortical structures in the near-wake region of a cubic obstacle are studied using numerical simulation. We consider flow between two parallel plates with a cube mounted on one of the plates. In the turbulent near-wake region of the flow, coherent structures such as hairpin vortices are found. Quasi-periodic behavior of the hairpin vortices is noticed; its dimensionless frequency at Re=1,000 is about 0.82 which is consistent with the result of Elavarasan of et al.'s experiment [Fluid Dyn. Research, 2000, 27] although their geometry is somewhat different from on. In the case of Re=3,500, the dimensionless frequency of the hairpin vortex is about 1.60. It is observed that the translating speed of the head of the hairpin vortex is lower than the streamwise mean velocity at that location. In the vicinity of the lower plate downstream of the cube, various length scales are identified thus less coherent. However, it is noticed that the vortical structures become gradually elongated downstream of the new reattachment.

An active stimulating device (ASD) consisting of a net panel or ropes fluttering in the turbulence inside the cod end was effective in driving fish near the cod end to reduce juvenile by-catch. The fluttering characteristics of the rope and net panel were examined by video observations and analyzed for fluttering amplitude and period in a water channel and in field experiments with a bottom trawl. The amplitude ratio of the fluttering ropes or nets in the tank test increased with the fluttering index as the diameter of the twine, mesh size, flexibility, and flow velocity changed, whereas the period decreased with the above factors. In bottom trawl experiments, the range of mean depth difference in the fluttering net panel was 12-17% of the length of the fluttering net, and the period of depth difference or three-dimensional (3D) tilt was revealed, with shorter ones ranging from 2 to 6 s. The amplitude as depth difference and period from field measurements were similar to those of nets in tank experiments and also to the period of 3D flow velocity inside the cod end. These results could be used to design an ASD that could be used for to the cod end of actual towed fishing gear to reduce juvenile by-catch.
