Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation of space signals is a basic problem in array signal processing. DOA estimation based on the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm can theoretically overcome the Rayleigh limit and achieve super resolution. However, owing to its inadequate real-time performance and accuracy in practical engineering applications, its applications are limited. To address this problem, in this study, a DOA estimation algorithm with high parallelism and precision based on an analysis of the characteristics of complex matrix eigenvalue decomposition and the coordinate rotation digital computer (CORDIC) algorithm is proposed. For parallel and single precision, floating-point numbers are used to construct an orthogonal identity matrix. Thus, the efficiency and accuracy of the algorithm are guaranteed. Furthermore, the accuracy and computation of the fixed-point algorithm, double-precision floating-point algorithm, and proposed algorithm are compared. Without increasing complexity, the proposed algorithm can achieve remarkably higher accuracy and efficiency than the fixed-point algorithm and double-precision floating-point calculations, respectively.

Industrial accidents differ considerably according to the industry and the scale of these industries. These industrial disasters have been analyzed in various ways. Therefore, a technique was developed to evaluate the disaster level among companies using the ANP method and the data derived from the disaster statistics over the past five years(2013~2017), as well as the safety information characteristics through questionnaires. The objective of the study was to determine the disaster level and safety level of a company. In this paper, six factors that are considered important for assessing the disaster level of the enterprise among the disaster statistics were selected. These factors included the industry type and size, age of employee, duration of treatment, duration of employment, and typical occurrence. Most companies use the accident rate for their disaster level to compare only with other companies. In this study, the weighting factors of the company were derived taking the characteristics of each company into consideration. Therefore, the disaster level of each company can be evaluated using the disaster statistics from each company and the derived weighting factors.

In comparison with ordinary or heavy-weight concrete, light-weight air void concrete has the good aspects in optimizing super tall structure systems for the process of design considering wind load and seismic load by lightening total dead load of buildings and reducing natural resources used. Light-weight air void concrete has excellent properties of heat and sound insulating due to its high amount porosity of air voids. So, it has been used as partition walls and the floor of Ondol which is the traditional Korean floor heating system. Under the condition of which the supply of light-weight aggregates are limited, the development of light-weight concrete using air voids is highly required in the aspects of reduced manufacturing prices and mass production. In this study, we investigated the physical properties and thermal behaviors of specimens that applied different mixing ratios of foaming agent to evaluate the possibility of use in the structural elements. We proposed the estimating equation for compressive strength of each mix having different ratio of foaming agent. We also confirmed that the density of cement matrix is decreased as the mixing amount of foaming agent increase up to 0.6% of foaming agent mixing ratio which was observed by SEM. Based on porosity and compressive strength of control mortar without foaming agent, we built the estimating equations of compressive strength for mortars with foaming agent. The upper limit of use in foaming agent is about 0.6% of the binder amount. Each air void is independent, and size of voids range from 50 to $100{\mu}m$.

Recently, as the size of display devices tends to increase and taking pictures with smart phones has become commonplace, the need for taking high-resolution pictures with smart phones is increasing. However, when the lens size of a camera is limited, such as in a smartphone, there is a physical limit to increasing the resolution of a photo. This paper is about a technique for increasing the resolution of a picture even when using a small-sized lens like a smartphone camera. It is to take multiple pictures while moving the smartphone, and to increase the resolution by combining these pictures into one picture. First of all, two pictures were taken while moving the smartphone horizontally for the 2D picture. Processes such as camera matrix estimation, and homograph inverse transformation were performed using OpenCV, and the resolution was improved by synthesizing one picture. It was confirmed that the resolution was improved in parts such as oblique lines or arcs on several test pictures.
