This paper has suggested a technique for measuring VSWR at 1.8 GHz band for various modulated signals. By using directional coupler the power of incident and reflected wave is measured, and in order to minimize the size and cost of the measuring circuit, a SPDT(Single Pole Double Throw) switch is adopted to realize the circuit with just one detector and one A/D(Analog to Digital) converter. MCU(Micro Control Unit) is used to calculate the voltage reflection coefficient and VSWR, and the measured VSWR error has improved by approximately 0.2 with applying a simple bubble sorting algorithm to reduce the measurement error, the MCU process time and load.

본 논문에서는 뇌졸중 환자의 독립적인 재활운동이 가능할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 뇌졸중은 뇌기능의 부분적 또는 전체적으로 급속히 발생한 장애가 상당 기간 이상 지속되는 상태를 의미한다. 이러한 뇌졸중은 상지 운동을 통해 대뇌 운동피질을 활성화하여 재활 할 수 있어, 의학 분야에서는 운동기구를 이용하여 뇌졸중 환자의 재활을 돕고 있다. 하지만 병원이 아닌 가정에서 운동을 하기에는 운동기구에 비용, 작업치료사의 부재와 같은 환경적인 측면으로 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가정에서 환자가 독립적인 운동을 할 수 있게 MCU와 Android Application을 이용하여 의료진이 환자의 옆에 없더라도 운동이 가능하고 가이드를 제공하는 스마트한 재활운동기기를 개발하였다. 또한 기존의 재활운동기기는 단순히 운동만 할 수 있었다면, 본 연구에서는 Android Application에서 게임을 제공함으로써 보다 즐겁게 운동이 가능하여 재활의지 증가를 기대해볼 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 환자의 운동 데이터가 실시간으로 저장되어 병원에서 의료진이 환자의 운동 상태를 파악할 수 있도록 구성함으로 써 향후 뇌졸중 환자의 재활연구분야에 도움이 될 것이라 생각한다.

This paper presents the development of a ROM writer for shmoo test of a flash memory integrated into the MCU(Micro Controller Unit). A shmoo test is a graphical display of the response of a component or system varying over a range of conditions and inputs. Often used to represent the results of the testing of complex electronic systems such as computers or integrated circuits such as DRAMs, ASICs or microprocessors. A shmoo test and data write time(32k) of the development ROM writer is 6.4 seconds, which was improved by about 20% compared to the rate of the currently used ROM writer.

In this paper, we implemented LED beam forming communication system controlled by stepping motor. ATMega1284 was used as a MCU of main control board which has two main external IO, one is RS232 for connection with PC, the other is PORT for connection with motor driving board. Stepping motor rotated 360 degree when provided 160 clock and its rotation radius was increased by Archimedian Spiral. So LED can provide its light anywhere in the space and its beam forming was controlled by PC connected with RS232 of main control board. The action of beam forming was verified via actual HW/SW implementation.

Until now, the implementation of servo motor control units which is being applied in various industrial ares such as industrial system, office equipment, home appliance and robotics, used the MCU and DSC(or DSP). However, MCU and DSC have limitations of not being able to maximize control efficiency of the motor and the flexibility. Thus, in this paper, we propose and implemented the designing method for development of servo motor control IP based on FPGA which have a structure to make the best motor control efficiency and flexibility of control,

The use of digital systems in radiation science has been increased last years in the different knowledge areas, as a detectors, spectrometry, spectroscopy, simulation, etc. This manuscript presents the design and implementation of a low-cost, fully portable multi-channel analyzer for nuclear spectrometry (in situ). The development is based on a 32-bit microcontroller with ARM Cortex-M7, this design is able to digitize and analyze pulses from a radiation detector without the need to transform the input signal with some filter, obtains the maximum height of each of the digitized pulses, segmenting the information into channels to form a histogram and visualizing the LCD screen incorporated in the system. A continuous digitization methodology was used, which is in charge of the DMA and an ADC with a resolution of 12 bits at a speed of 3.6 MSPS. The system has a compact design and can open and save spectra in an SD memory built into the system. The MCA in MCU was tested with a NaI(Tl) Scintillation radiation detector, which allowed us to determine that the spectra obtained are similar compared to commercial MCA's. The results obtained show that the MCA in MCU is efficient for nuclear spectrometry, in addition to being very economical and low power consumption.

In this paper, we propose the design of lighting control algorithm for intelligent LED lighting system. The proposed lighting control algorithm transmitted to MCU through a data bus the environmental information detected from respectively sensor node. The MCU control software was designed to determine the level maintained to depending on the set control method by comparing the results that calculated the dimming level using a signal value. Also, it was designed to be lighting by cross-performed periodically the rotation and reverse method by created fully symmetrical pattern using the control algorithm to LED lighting device. In this paper, the proposed lighting control algorithm improved the reliability of the data sent by designed the system that can be controlled lighting to stable, and it was maintained the event delivery ratio of 91%. Also, the lighting device was decreased the luminous intensity of 32%, the power consumption of 49%, and heat generation of 32%. As a result, it were could be improved the energy efficiency that the life-cycle of LED has been increased 50%.

This paper presents a study regarding a systemic structure that forms a link between heterogeneous terminals and the WebRTC (Web real-time communication) based video-conferencing systems. This system consists of a WebRTC-based terminal, a signal server for the relaying of the necessary signals for media negotiations, an MCU provides an interworking interface for the heterogeneous terminal, and the heterogeneous terminals that interwork with the MCU. This technology enables the interoperability between the WebRTC-based video-conferencing solutions and the legacy devices. In addition to reducing the replacement costs regarding new-technology-based solutions, the existing legacy equipment enables the use of multiparty-conference, thereby increasing the use ability of the conferencing systems.

In this thesis, an automatic door lock system using a dual tone multiple frequency(DTMF) signal generated as pushing the key button of mobile phone is proposed and implemented. This system consists of a transmitter module and a receiver module for processing the DTMF signal of mobile phone. The DTMF signal of mobile phone connected with ear-phone jack enter into the input terminal of DTMF receiver and those are encoded by a code-converter with 4-bits binary format in the DTMF receiver. The encoded output signals are transmitted to the amplitude shift keying(ASK) modulator of transmitter module and the modulated ASK signals which are converted into radio frequency(RF) signals propagate in a free space. The RF signals passed through a free space are demodulated by the ASK demodulator of receiver module and the demodulated ASK signals are sent to a micro-controller unit(MCU). The output signals processed by the MCU are compared with the secreted identification number which is prerecorded in a microprocessor and are transferred to a power relay. If the result is the same, the automatic door lock system opens a door. In the opposite case, it maintains closing the door. The implemented automatic door lock system operates well in mobile environments.
