Aligned multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were synthesized through the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons in a quartz tube reactor. In this study, we investigated the influence of reaction parameters such as gas flow rate, ferrocene-xylene ratio and partial pressure, and reaction time on the yield and structure of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes produced by the floating catalyst method. The MWNTs produced had diameters in the range of 20~l00 nm, length around $100{\mu}m$ and bulk density about $0.51g/cm^3$ at a pressure of l0000 psi. It was possible to produce MWNTs with much faster growth rate of $12{\mu}m/min$ than that reported previously by the increase of ferrocene-xylene partial pressure.

A combustion project was completed regarding the development of a high-flow-rate purge burner in cooperation with three city gas companies(Pusan, Taegu, Samchulli). The project, started in May 1991, aimed at purging the line-packed-gas safely and quickly before getting into gas pipe working or relocation. According to the results, the purging noise is less than 80dB due to silencer screen. multi-nozzle and outlet inserted tube employed. In addition, the developed burner shows an increased work efficiency of 40-50% more as compared to the performance of conventional purge equipments. The project result is regarded as the first high-flow-rate purge burner developed within Korea. contributing to shortening purge hours, safe field work and easiness of purge site selection.

A power-adjustable fully-integrated CMOS optical receiver with multi-rate clock-and-data recovery circuit is presented in standard 65-nm CMOS technology. With supply voltage scaling, key features of the optical receiver such as bandwidth, power efficiency, and optical sensitivity can be automatically optimized according to the bit rates. The prototype receiver has −23.7 dBm to −15.4 dBm of optical sensitivity for 10⁻⁹ bit error rate with constant conversion gain around all target bit rates from 1.62Gbps to 8.1 Gbps. Power efficiency is less than 9.3 pJ/bit over all operating ranges.

This study has been conducted to monitor the corrosion rate of cathodically protected structure and corrosion inhibited system using multi-line thin-film electrical resistance (TFER) sensor in various environments. The field test data of TFER sensor for the corrosion monitoring of cathodically protected underground pipeline in soil environments and of corrosion inhibited gas heaters were also presented. The sensor was found to be a powerful method to commit the sensitive pick-up of small corrosion rate which can be observed in the cathodically protected and corrosion inhibited systems.

In the underwater communications, the acoustic channel is in poor communication conditions, such as long propagation delay, narrow bandwidth, and high bit-error rate. For these bad acoustic channels, we propose an efficient automatic repeat request (ARQ) for multi-hop underwater network by using the concepts of concurrent bi-directional transmission, multiple sub-packets, and overhearing data packet instead of the acknowledgement signal. Our results show that the proposed ARQ significantly reduces the transmission latency especially in high BER compared with the existing Stop and Wait ARQ.

In this study, breakwater model which has several outlet pipes to discharge water is settled in the experimental open channel and mean velocity distributions of multi wall jet are measured. The length of zone of flow establishment of wall jet is shorter than that of free jet and decay rate of jet centerline longitudinal velocity along x is linear in $0.3{leq}x/I_p{leq}17$. The rate of vertical width and lateral width spreading of multi wall jet is respectively 0.0753, 0.157.

In this paper, a scheme to evaluate the number of users in a WCDMA supporting multi-rate traffic is presented through the calculations of Erlang capacity from a derived blocking probability. It is observed that voice-data Erlang capacities have an inverse linear relationship. When the $E_b/N_o$ decreases from 4 dB to 3 dB within the outage probability of 2 % and at the voice rate of 8 kbps, the results show an increase of 8 Erlang at the data rates of 15 kbps, 4 Erlang at 30 kbps, 2 Erlang at 60 kbps, and 1 Erlang at 120 kbps respectively and an increase of the Erlang capacities through a gradual decrease of the data rates from 960 kbps to 15 kbps. So this is useful for optimizing as a reference of design for the capacity in a WCDMA system.

본 논문은 H.264/AVC가 이전의 비디오 코덱에서 사용하는 8$\times$8 변환이 아닌 4$\times$4 변환을 도입하면서 인트라 및 인터 예측 성능을 높인 반면 공간적 압축도가 낮은 점을 개선하기 위한 다차원 변환 방법을 제안한다. 다차원 변환 방법은 H.264/AVC가 갖는 시간적 예측의 장점과 공간적 압축도를 동시에 충족시킬 수 있는 방법이다. 먼저 실험을 통해 다차원 DCT가 H.264/AVC의 2차원 정수 변환(Integer Transform)보다 에너지 압축율이 높다는 것을 보였다. 다차원 DCT를 위한 정수형 변환과 양자화기를 설계하였으며, H.264에서 사용하는 컨텍스트 기반 적응 가변 길이 코딩 (CAVLC)을 엔트로피 코더로 사용하여 다차원 부호화기를 설계하였다. 다차원 부호화기에는 다차원 변환에 따른 블록 주사 방식과 파라미터 갱신, 다차원 변환 모드 선택 등의 도구가 적용되었다. 실험 결과, 다차원 부호화기는 낮은 비트율에서 H.264/AVC와 유사한 압축 효율을 보였지만, 엔트로피와 0이 아닌 계수를 계산하여 비교한 통계적 성능 비교에서는 높은 성능을 보였다. 따라서, 다차원 부호화에 대한 추가적인 연구가 진행된다면 기존의 H.264/AVC의 성능을 보완할 수 있는 부호화 알고리즘으로서 발전할 수 있을 것이다.

The performance of oxygen combustion with $CO_2$ feeding was investigated in a pyrex tube furnace. The inverse type multi-hole burner was used for improving mixing and wide operating range. It introduced oxygen, fuel, and oxygen, respectively, from center tube to outer tubes. Oxygen combustion characteristics with excess oxygen ratio, oxygen feeding ratio, and $CO_2$ feeding flow rate were studied to optimize the operating condition and to apply the oxygen combustion with recirculation of flue gas to a real furnace. This paper presents results on the effect of $CO_2$ feeding flow rate on the structure of the flames and concentrations of NO and CO emissions. The visible flame length was shortest due to well mixing between fuel and oxygen when the oxygen feeding ratio was 0.25. The NO emission was reduced drastically regardless of excess oxygen ratio when the $CO_2$ feeding flow rate was larger than 15 lpm. The CO emission is varied by changing the $CO_2$ feeding flow rate but the CO emission characteristics is highly affected by excess oxygen ratio. When the excess oxygen ratio is below ${\lamda}=1.1$, the CO emission increased as the $CO_2$ feeding flow rate increased.

본 논문에서는 IMT(international mobile telecommunications)-2000 3GPP(3rd generation partnership project) 규격에 따른 전송률이 서로 다른 다수의 사용자 신호들을 효과적으로 처리할 수 있는 간단한 병렬형 간섭제거기를 제안한다. 제안한 방식은 다중 전송률 처리를 위하여 모든 사용자들에 공통적이며 전송률이 가장 낮은 제어채널의 한 심벌을 기준블록으로 설정하여 기준블록 단위마다 병렬로 간섭제거를 수행한다. 또한, 사용자간 비동기 환경에서 자신보다 짧은 지연을 갖는 간섭 사용자의 다음 기준블록에 의하여 발생하는 간섭을 미리 판정하고 재생하여 제거함으로써 간섭제거 성능을 개선할 수 있는 효과적인 사전 제거 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 사전 제거 기법을 사용한 다중 전송률 처리 병렬형 간섭제거기의 효율적인 구현을 위하여 샘플단위의 파이프라인을 도입하여 기준블록 주기로 판정하고, 이어서 샘플단위로 재생성하고 샘플단위로 간섭제거를 수행함으로써 최소의 하드웨어를 필요로 하는 파이프라인 구조를 제안한다. 모의실험을 통하여 저l안한 간섭제거기의 신호 대 잡음비 및 사용자 수에 따른 비트 오류율 성능을 분석한다.
