Acoustic surveys using a scientific echosounder and trawl surveys were concurrently carried out in between Geoje and Tongyeong of the South Sea by season. The anchovy schools were identified by trawling in each station and used for frequency response analysis. Frequency responses of anchovy schools by season and species composition ratio were examined using multi-frequencies (18, 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz). The frequency response r(f), is one of the acoustic characteristics which means the volume back-scattering strength ratio between a reference frequency and other frequencies. In spring, the r(f) of anchovy schools decreased with increased frequency, with the exception of 120kHz. While, in winter, the r(f) continuously decreased inversely proportional to the increase in frequency. Frequency response of anchovy schools presented a distinctive difference between spring and winter, however it did not different in spife of different species composition ratios in schools.

A new technique for improving the efficiency of single-phase high-frequency boost converter is proposed. This converter includes an additional low-frequency boost converter which is connected to the main high-frequency switching device in parallel. The additional converter is controlled at lower frequency. Most of the current flows in the low-frequency switch and so, high-frequency switching loss is greatly reduced accordingly. Both switching device are controlled by a simple method; each controller consists of a comparator, a frequency generator and an error amplifier. The converter works cooperatively in high efficiency and acts as if it were a conventional high-frequency boost converter with one switching device, The proposed method is verified by simulation and experiment. This paper describes the converter configuration and design, and discusses the steady-state performance concerning the switching loss reduction and efficiency improvement.

We suggest a cast Alnico magnet as a new microwave absorber. The proposed Alnico microwave absorber shows advanced microwave absorption properties of 24 dB at 13.3 GHz for the thicknesses of 1 mm We also investigated the effects of the carbon, which qjfects strongly to microwave absorption in Alnico magnet microwave absorbers. Central frequency shifts toward lower frequency with increasing Alnico content which is related to the frequency to show tan 8 > 1. Also, we investigated the sample thickness dependence on the microwave absorption properties.

In this paper, we analyzed the frequency spectrum of radiated electromagnetic pulses generated by series arc- and corona- discharges as a basic study to develop an on-line diagnostic technique for power facilities installed inside closed-switchboards. To simulate series arc and corona discharges, five types of electrode system which consists of needle and plane electrodes were arranged. The experiment was carried out in an electromagnetic shielding room, and the measurement system consists of an ultra log antenna and an EMI receiver. From the experimental results, the frequency spectrum exists in ranges from 30 MHz to 2 GHz for a series arc discharge and 30 MHz to 1.2 GHz depending on defects for a corona discharge. The peak frequency of the series arc- and corona- discharges were 100 MHz to 160 MHz and 40 MHz to 80 MHz, respectively.

1990년대 말부터 IMO(International Maritime Organization)의 SOLAS(Safety of Life at Sea) 조약에 따라 300톤 이상의 모든 선박에 GMDSS(Global Maritime Distress & Safety System)를 탑재함으로써 전 세계 어디에서나 선박의 조난 및 안전 통신을 위한 육 해상 통합시스템의 기틀이 마련되었다. 최근에는 GMDSS의 현대화와 e-Navigation 개발전략에 따라 해상통신 기술의 디지털화와 음성에서 데이터 통신으로의 큰 변화가 예상된다. 이에 GMDSS 중심의 해상통신 기술현황을 위성, MF(Medium Frequency), HF(High Frequency), VHF(Very High Frequency) 등 다양한 통신 기술에 따라 설명하고 e-Navigation 개발전략에 따라 해상통신 기술의 발전 방향을 살펴보도록 한다.

This paper addresses on the International technical trends, standards, and development status of terrestrial radionavigation system to provide more accurate and fail-safe Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Information available in maritime navigation environment. We analyze the performance result of pilot service in enhanced Long range navigation (eLoran) testbed environment using Low Frequency (LF) signal, and describe the development status of Ranging-Mode (R-Mode) system using Medium Frequency (MF) and Very High Frequency (VHF) to meet the Harbor Entrances and Approaches (HEA) requirement of International Maritime Organization (IMO) within 10m position accuracy. Furthermore, we present an architecture for integrated service of satellite-terrestrial navigation system and future maritime applicable fields. As the core information infrastructure of future navigation for 4th industrial revolution, this paper will be contributed to determining the direction of present and future to provide fail-safe PNT service with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) based on the technical enhancement of terrestrial integrated navigation system.

In this letter, the effect of quality factor on center frequency deviation in miniaturized coupled line bandpass filter (BPF) with diagonally end-shorted at their opposite sides and lumped capacitors is theoretically analyzed. The miniaturized BPF of a two-stage structure with two types of quality factors in standard CMOS process was designed and manufactured at 5.5 GHz. The die area of BPF was $1.44{\times}0.41\;mm^2$. The measured center frequency of BPF with a quality factor of 4.9 was deviated from 5.5 GHz to 4.7 GHz. The one with 14.8 was shifted to 5GHz. The theoretical and measured results validate that quality factor influences the center frequency shift of BPF.

In order to assess risk as a basic step for securing safety, it requires to select risk factors and determine the frequency and the severity of the consequence of each risk factor. This research adopted common risk factors among well-known maritime risk assessment models, and proposed objective criteria to gauge the risk level of each risk factor. The starting points of risk evolution were chosen for criteria according to related studies and seafarers' experience. The rate of risk appearance over the criteria is named as the incidence of risk factor. Therefore, the total risk level is expressed as the combination of incidence of each risk factor and severity. This quantitative method would be applied to measuring and comparing the risk level of target maritime zones, and it would also be useful to survey which risk factor be focused for reducing the total risk of a certain maritime zone.

R-Mode is terrestrial based Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) backup radio navigation technology which used existing maritime information service infrastructure. It has advantages on reduce the cost and reutilize the frequency resource. In this paper, we propose a method to develop a medium-frequency (MF) band R-Mode transmitting station by utilizing the currently operating Differential GNSS (DGNSS) reference station infrastructure. To this end, the considerations for co-operating the DGNSS reference station and the MF R-Mode transmitting station are analyzed. In this process, we also analyze what is necessary to configure the communication system as a navigation system for range measurement. Based on the analysis result, MF R-Mode transmitting station system is designed and architecture is proposed. The developed system is installed in the field, and the performance evaluation results is presented.
