Planar graded index optical waveguides have been formed by Ag$^{+}$ ion exchange in the BK7 optical glass. The experimental results of diffusion and modal characteristics of Ag$^{+}$-Na$^{+}$ exchanged BK7 glass waveguides are presented. Measurements of the mode indices have been measured. We found the relations between the process and device parameters such as the diffusion depth and the square root of the diffusion time, diffusion coefficient and diffusion temperature, and diffusion ion concentration and surface index change. A theoretical gaussian function refractive index profile matched best with the measured data for all the guided modes. The empirical relations between the process and the device parameters are derived and subsequently used to formulate a systematic procedure for fabricating singlemode and multimode waveguides.uides.

This paper proposes an exercise recommendation system for treating obesity that provides systematic recommendations for exercise and diet. Five body indices are considered as indicators for recommend exercise and diet. The system also informs users of prohibited foods using health data including blood pressure, blood sugar, and total cholesterol. To maximize the utility of the system, it displays recommendations for both indoor and outdoor activities. The system is equipped with multimode sensors, including a three-axis accelerometer, a laser, a pressure sensor, and a wrist-mounted sensor. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the system, field tests are carried out with three participants over 20 days, which show that the proposed system is effective in treating obesity.

This paper deals with a novel shunt circuit, which is capable of suppressing multimode vibration amplitudes by using a pair of piezoceramic patches. In order to describe the characteristic behaviors of a piezoelectric damper connected with a series and a parallel resistor-negative capacitor branch circuit, the stiffness ratio and loss factor with respect to the non-dimensional frequency are considered. The mechanism of the shunt damper is also described by considering a shunt voltage constrained by shunt impedance. To obtain a guideline model of the piezo/beam system with a negative capacitive shunting, the governing equations of motion are derived through the Hamilton's principle and a piezo sensor equation as well as a shunt-damping matrix is developed. The theoretical analysis shows that the piezo/beam system combined with a series and a parallel resistor-negative capacitor branch circuit developed in this study can significantly reduce the multiple-mode vibration amplitudes over the whole structural frequency range.

In this paper, the Fourier Transform is employed to solve the coupled differential equations of modal power and three equations of the mode coupling coeficient are dierived using the phasor form trial soluation. The theory of the mode coupling coefficient contains a few theories proposed by earlier authers. Also it is seen that in case the optical source is modulated by a sinusoidal function, this theory is applied as well. In experiment, the mode coupling coefficient is determinded for a multimode graded-index fiber by using the optical source, which modulated by a sinusoidal function.

The beam splitter is important in optical communication systems. in this work, thc quasi-state based on four-mode interference in thc MMI coupler is proposed, and so, device length is shorten to be 1/5 of general designed length. We designed thc polarization splitter based on thc concept of quasi-state. Thc analysis has been accomplished by thc effective index method(EIM) and thc mode propagation analysis(MPA) for given structure.

MM(multimode) PWM(pulse width modulation) Suitable for high performance and harmonic effects minimization of VSI (voltabge source invertetr)-IM (induction motor)drive system is proposed. The approximated optimal, suboptimal and optimal PWM are implemented in the low frequency range, while square wave operation is realized in the hibh frequency range. The pulse width Modulator is capable of generating control signals to a transistorized inverter operating at about 1KHz. All functions except digital comparison have been implemented in softyware making the scheme economical, flexible and reliable. Pulse width modulator is built and tested experimentally. In order to confirm the effectiveness and the reliability of the theoretical proposition, this scheme is applied to 1Hp, Three phase IM. As results, it is concluded that the scheme of MM PWM is superior to other conventional switching scheme through the discussions or analysis carried out on the items such as line-to-line voltage, current and spectrum of current harmonic components observed at the output terminal of inverter, noise level of motor.

DC억압능력이 없거나 부족한 코드에 만족할 만한 DC억압능력을 갖도록 하는 방법은 DC 제어 비트의 사용, Dual Code의 사용, Multimode Code의 사용 등이 있다. 어떤 방법이든 부가 비트가 사용되지만, 그 중에서 멀티모드 변조코드는 우수한 DC억압능력과 높은 코드효율을 갖고 있음에도 불구하고 복잡한 하드웨어와 높은 에러 전파율을 갖는 단점도 있다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 멀티모드 변조코드의 특징은 데이터열의 다중화를 위해 의사 스크램블 기법을, 다중화된 데이터열의 변조를 위해서는 DC-free RLL 변조코드를 사용한다. 의사 스크램블에 의한 데이터열의 다중화는 데이터를 복조할 때 에러전파 확률을 떨어뜨리는 효과가 있고 다중화된 데이터열의 변조를 위한 DC-free RLL 변조코드의 사용은 DC억압능력을 향상시키고 하드웨어가 훨씬 간단해진다.

In this study, a Lamb-wave based damage detection approach is proposed for damage localization in plate. A sensor network consisting of three PZT wafer type actuators/sensors is used to generate and detect Lamb waves. To minimize the complication resulted from the multimode and dispersive characteristics of Lamb waves, the fundamental symmetric Lamb mode, $S_0$ is selectively generated through designing the excitation frequency of the narrowband input signal. A damage localization algorithm based upon the configuration of the PZT sensor network is developed. Time-frequency analysis method is applied to purify the raw signal and extract damage features. Experimental result obtained from aluminum plate verified the proposed damage localization approach.

Light losses in optical fibers are investigated by a fiber optic OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometry) sensor system to develop fiber optic probes for structural strain measurement. The sensing fibers are manufactured 3 kinds of fibers: one is single mode fiber, and second is multimode fiber, and the third is low-cladding-index fiber. Fiber bending tests are performed to determine the strain sensitivity according to the strain of gage length of optical fibers. In the result of this experiments, the strain sensitivity of the single mode fiber was shown the highest value than others. The fiber optic strain probe was manufactured to verify the feasibility of the structural strain measurement. In this test, the fiber optic strain probe of the OTDR sensor could be easily made by the single mode fiber.
