Owing to the difficulties associated with conducting millimeter-wave (mmWave) field measurements, especially in high-speed train (HST) environments, most propagation channels for mmWave HST have been studied using methods based on simulation rather than measurement. In this study, considering a linear cell layout in which base stations are installed along a railway, measurements were performed at 28 GHz with a speed up to 170 km/h in two prevalent HST scenarios: viaduct and tunnel scenarios. By observing the channel impulse responses, we could identify single- and double-bounced multipath components (MPCs) caused by railway static structures such as overhead line equipment. These MPCs affect the delay spread and Doppler characteristics significantly. Moreover, we observed distinct path loss behaviors for the two scenarios, although both are considered line-of-sight (LoS) scenarios. In the tunnel scenario, the path loss exponent (PLE) is 1.3 owing to the waveguide effect, which indicates that the path loss is almost constant with respect to distance. However, the LoS PLE in the viaduct scenario is 2.46, which is slightly higher than the free-space loss.

The problem of classifying a non-line-of-sight (NLOS) signal in a multipath channel is important to improve global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning accuracy in urban areas. Conventional deep learning-based NLOS signal classifiers use GNSS satellite measurements such as the carrier-to-noise-density ratio (CN_0), pseudorange, and elevation angle as inputs. However, there is a computational inefficiency with use of these measurements and the NLOS signal features expressed by the measurements are limited. In this paper, we propose a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based NLOS signal classifier that receives successive Auto-correlation function (ACF) outputs according to a time-series, which is the most primitive output of GNSS signal processing. We compared the proposed classifier to other DL-based NLOS signal classifiers such as a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) to show the superiority of the proposed classifier. The results show the proposed classifier does not require the navigation data extraction stage to classify the NLOS signals, and it has been verified that it has the best detection performance among all compared classifiers, with an accuracy of up to 97%.

In order to improve the performance of temperature field measurements by CT-TDLAS (Computer Tomography Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy), a new reconstruction algorithm, named two-ratios-of-three-peaks method is proposed in this paper. Further, two methods for selecting appropriate initial values of the iterative calculation of CT-TDLAS are proposed. One is MLOS (multiplicative line of sight) method and the other one is ALOS (additive line of sight) method. Two-ratios-of-three-peaks (2R3P) algorithm combined with MART (multiplicative algebraic reconstruction technique) is finally developed for the enhancements of reconstructive calculations. The results have been compared with those obtained by the conventional one-ratio-of-two-peaks (1R2P) algorithm. In order to evaluate the performance of this algorithm, numerical test has been performed using phantom Gaussian temperature distributions with $11{\times}11$ square mesh. The performance of the constructed algorithm has been demonstrated by comparing the results obtained in actual burner experiments with those obtained by thermocouples. It has been verified that 2R3P algorithm with MART and MLOS showed best performance than that of 1R2P algorithm.

Field Line of sight Automated Radiance Exposure (FLARE) 시스템을 이용하여 다목적위성3호/3A호의 절대복사 검보정 연구를 수행하였다. FLARE는 미국의 Labshphere사에 의해 개발된 시스템으로 SPecular Array Radiometric Calibration (SPARC) 개념을 적용한 것이다. FLARE는 거울처럼 반사하는 거울 타겟을 사용하여 산란되는 복사에너지의 원인 요소들을 최소화시킨 단순한 복사보정 방법을 제공한다. FLARE 시스템이 장착된 사이트를 통과하는 다목적위성3호/3A호를 이용한 영상자료 획득을 위해 2021년 7월 5일부터 7월 15일 사이에 필드캠페인을 진행하였다. 기상 상황 때문에 여러 번의 관측 자료 가운데 2개의 다목적위성3호 관측자료만이 유효한 샘플 영상으로 확인되었다. FLARE 시스템과 다목적위성3호 관측 자료를 바탕으로 절대복사 검보정 계수를 산출하였다. 7월 7일과 7월 13일 획득된 2개의 FLARE 관측 자료를 통해 계산된 결과는 근적외 채널을 제외하고 1% 이내의 매우 유사한 결과를 보여 주었다. 2021년 8월 획득된 다목적위성3호/3A호 자료를 추가하여 분석한 결과, 현재의 메타 데이터에 할당된 위성들의 이득값들과는 상당한 차이를 보였다. 제한된 획득자료로 인해 FLARE 시스템을 실제 운영 중인 다목적위성3호/3A호에 대한 절대복사 검보정 계수 산출 용도로 사용하기 위해서는 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

To investigate schemes of secret key generation from Ultra-wideband (UWB) channel, we study a statistical characterization of UWB outdoor channel for a campus playground scenario based on extensive measurements. Moreover, an efficient secret key generation mechanism exploiting multipath relative delay is developed, and verification of this algorithm is conducted in UWB Line-of-sight (LOS) outdoor channels. For the first time, we compare key-mismatch probability of UWB indoor and outdoor environments. Simulation results demonstrate that the number of multipath proportionally affects key generation rate and key-mismatch probability. In comparison to the conventional method using received signal strength (RSS) as a common random source, our mechanism achieves better performance in terms of common secret bit generation. Simultaneously, security analysis indicates that the proposed scheme can still guarantee security even in the sparse outdoor physical environment free of many reflectors.

The operation of a Doppler wind LIDAR in a mobile environment is very sensitive to shocks and vibrations, which can cause critical failures such as misalignment of the optical path and damage to optical components. To be able to stabilize the LIDAR and to perform wind field measurements in motion, a shock absorption and vibration isolation system was designed and implemented. The performance of the vehicle-mounted Doppler wind LIDAR was tested in motion, first in a circular test route with a diameter of about 30 m and later in regular expressway traffic. The vibration isolation efficiency of the system was found to be higher than 82% in the main vibration area and shock dynamic deflection was smaller than maximal deflection of the isolator. The stability of the laser locking frequency in the same mobile environment before and after the vibration isolation system installation was also found to be greatly improved. The reliability of the vibration isolation system was confirmed by good results of the analysis of the LIDAR data, in particular the plane position indicator of the line of sight velocity and the wind profile.

Convolution Fourier transformation tomographically reconstructs the spatially resolved spray injection rate from direct measuring cells. Asymmetric sprays generated from a twin-hole air shroud injector are tested with 12 equiangular projections of measurements. For each projection angle, line of sight integrated injection rate was measured at 35 positions with equal spacing measuring cells of 3 mm in width, 100 mm in length, 55 mm in depth and 0.5 mm thickness of separating wall. Interpolated data between the projection angles effectively increase the number of projections, which significantly enhances the signal-to-noise level in the reconstructed data. This modified convolution Fourier transformation scheme predicts well the structure of asymmetric sprays. Comparative study has been made between sprays with and without air shrouding. Tomograhpic reconstruction of injection rate from direct measuring cells obtained can be used to estimate the accuracy of volume fraction of spray from the LDPA tomographic reconstruction.

The implementation of modern guidance law derived from optimal control theory requires accurate current states of target, for example, position, velocity and acceleration etc. But there is no sensors that measure the target states directly. So they are estimated from measurable data. For atmospheric missile engagement, direct application of the modern guidance laws may result In deterioration of Intercept performance because of poor observability associated with angles only-measurements by passive seeker and homing geometry. In this paper, a trajectory modulation method called "adaptive Intermittent maneuvers" is added to the modern guidance law, so the observability is enhanced and, consequently, improved the intercept performance. The estimation algorithm called "modified gain pseudo-measurement filter" is used for tracking filter. It is assumed that the passive seeker measure the angles between line of sight and Inertial frame. The Monte-Carlo simulation for realistic air-to-air Intercept scenario are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of intermittent maneuvers.ermittent maneuvers.
