Moire artifact는 미세병변과 주파수 대역이 중첩되기 때문에 moire artifact를 제거하는 Image processing software를 사용할 경우 미세 병변의 손실을 가져올 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 SD(Sprague Dawley) Rat에 microcalcification과 microfracture와 같은 미세병변을 임의로 형성하여 영상화하고, reference 영상과 grid suppression software를 사용한 영상, optimizied grid 영상을 비교 분석하였다. 영상은 두 명의 영상의학과 전문의가 컨소시엄을 형성하여 판독하였고, 판독 결과 값은 McNemar's test 이용하여 평가하였다. 73개의 microcalcifications 중 Grid suppression후 13 cases에서, optimized grid를 사용한 영상은 3 cases에서 영상의 손실이 확인되어 Grid suppression후의 영상이 통계적으로 유의하게 영상 손실을 발생하고 있음을 보여주고 있다(p=0.021). 총 53개의 fracture line은 Grid suppression을 시행한 후 영상에서 19 cases가 영상의 손실을 보였고, optimized grid를 사용한 영상에서는 영상손실이 없는 것으로 판독되었다. 따라서 미세병변을 진단하는 영상에 있어 moire artifact를 제거하기 위한 grid suppression software 사용은 신중하게 고려되어야 할 것이다.

Quantitative analysis was performed to confirm that moire artifact was removed without loss of image when using grid suppression software in the diagnosis of micro lesions. we showed that grid suppression images can be morphologically different from original images as they are significantly lower than those of the optimized grid in the similarity analysis with reference images in mammographic phantom images. We were confirmed that images of microcalcification with smaller signal than noise were lost because the pixel values of all lesions increased significantly after the grid suppression, The change in contrast using the NORMI 13 X-ray test phantom was reduced to 30% of the reference image, This result was significantly lower than the 90% when using the optimized grid. In conclusion, the use of grid suppression software in clinical images should be carefully considered because of the possibility of misdiagnosis due to micro lesion loss and morphological changes.

고정 인프라 없이 차량 노드 간 자체적으로 구성되는 차량 애드?혹 네트워크, VANET은 사고 예방과 교통량 통제로 그 사용 목적과 필요성이 분명하게 나타난다. VANET 환경에 적합한 위치 정보 기반 라우팅 기법은 소스 노드가 목적지 노드의 위치 정보를 가지고 있다는 전제를 바탕으로 하여, 위치 정보 제공을 위한 위치 정보 서비스(Location service)가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 위치 정보 서비스에서의 접근성 문제 및 노드 간 형평성 유지에 관한 문제를 해결하기 위해 최적경로 설정을 위한 그리드 기반 위치 정보 서비스 스팟(Grid-based Location service spot, GLSS) 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법에서 지역을 구성하는 각 그리드에 일정 범위가 LSS로 설정되어, 해당 그리드의 모든 노드들은 위치 정보 등록 및 요청 메시지를 LSS로 Geocast 전송을 하게 된다. 위치 정보 요청 메지시는 LSS 간 확산을 통해 응답 메시지 발신 노드는 그리드 간 최적 경로를 통해 전달을 수행하여 신뢰성 있는 전송을 보장한다. 본 논문에서는 도로 환경과 지형 지물을 고려하여 각 그리드의 LSS를 경유하는 최적 경로 기법과 GPSR을 비교하여 성능 평가를 수행하였다.

We studied the effect of the silver grid size on graphene transparent conducting films for flexible organic solar cells (OSCs). The silver grid was used an assistant layer of the graphene to reduce the sheet resistance of substrates. Silver grid with various graphene sizes for optimizing transmittance and sheet resistance of substrates were fabricated on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates to form the hybrid films. The optimized grid geometry on the single layer graphene (SLG) was the grid dimension $200{\mu}m{\times}200{\mu}m{\times}50nm{\times}2{\mu}m$ (length ${\times}$ width ${\times}$ height ${\times}$ linewidth), where the sheet resistance was $55.73{\Omega}/square$ with the average transmittance of ~ 92.83 % at 550 nm. The properties of the OSCs fabricated using SLG with optimized silver grids on PET substrates show a short circuit current of $10.9mA/cm^2$, an open circuit voltage of 0.58 V, a fill factor of 60.8 %, and a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 3.9 %. The PCE was improved about 91% than that of the OSCs using the SLG without the silver grid. These results demonstrate that the optimized grid geometry to the based on the graphene transparent electrodes contribute to improving the performance of OSCs.

A considerable amount of research material discussing designs and properties of High Temperature Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (HTS FCL) is available. However, a shortage of research concerning positioning of HTS FCL in power grid is felt. In this paper a feasibility study of HTS FCL positioning in Smart Grid through simulation analysis is carried out. A complete power network (including generation, transmission and distribution) is modeled in Simulink / SimPowerSystems. A generalized HTS FCL is also designed by integrating Simulink and SimPowerSystem blocks. The distribution network of the model has a wind turbine attached to it forming a micro grid. Three phase fault have been simulated along with placing FCL models at key points of the distribution grid. It is observed that distribution grid, having distributed generation sources attached to it, must not have a single FCL located at the substation level. Optimized HTS FCL location regarding the best fault current contribution from wind turbine has been determined through simulation analysis.

The conventional LCL filter design method of the utility interactive inverter considers only harmonics attenuation of the current injected to the grid. However, in case of utility-interactive inverter with critical load the voltage quality of the critical load should also be considered for LCL filter design. Also, considering cost and volume of LCL filters. it is important to have minimum values of inductance and capacitance as far as the harmonic standards are satisfied. In this paper a LCL filter design method is proposed to satisfy not only the harmonic standards of the grid current during the grid-connected mode but the voltage quality of the critical load during grid-connected mode and stand-alone mode. With the proposed method optimized values of LCL filters could be obtained by applying weighting factor to voltage ripple across the critical load, inductor volume, amount of reactive current and system bandwidth.

This paper proposes a design method of LCL-filter for a grid-connected three-phase inverter using a discontinuous PWM (DPWM) method. When using a DPWM method, many harmonic voltages are generated in the inverter output compared to a continuous PWM (CPWM) method. Therefore, an optimized grid-connected filter design is required for a DPWM method. The proposed design method provides generalized formula to design accurate LCL-filter without trial and error procedures. An inverter side inductance is designed by analyzing the current ripple injected to the grid. The Optimized parameters of LCL-filter can be designed by analyzing the total harmonic distortion (THD) and the ripple attenuation factor of the output current. The proposed LCL filter design method is demonstrated by simulation and experimental results.

Parallel implementation and performance assessment of the grid assembly in a structured chimera grid approach is studied. The grid assembly process, involving hole cutting and searching donor, is parallelized on the PC cluster. A message passing programming model based on the MPI library is implemented using the single program multiple data(SPMD) paradigm. The coarse-grained communication is optimized with the minimized memory allocation because that the parallel grid assembly can access the decomposed geometry data in other processors by only message passing in the distributed memory system such as a PC cluster. The grid assembly workload is based on the static load balancing tied to flow solver. A goal of this work is a development of parallelized grid assembly that is suited for handling multiple moving body problems with large grid size.

A bidirectional dc-dc converter is used in battery energy storage systems owing to the growing requirements of a charging and discharging mode of battery. The magnetic coupling of output or input inductors in parallel-connected multi modules of a bidirectional dc-dc converter is often utilized to reduce the peak-to-peak ripple size of the inductor current. This study proposes a novel design guideline to achieve minimal ripple size of the inductor current under bidirectional power flow. The newly proposed design guideline of optimized coupling factor is applicable to the buck and boost operation modes of a bidirectional dc-dc converter. Therefore, the coupling factor value of the coupled inductor does not have to be optimized separately for buck and boost operation modes. This new observation is explained using the theoretical model of coupled inductor and confirmed through simulation and experimental test.

탄화규소(Silicon Carbide) 기반의 1200 V급 Merged Pin Schottky(MPS) 다이오드의 구조를 2D-atlas simulation tool을 사용하여 최적화 및 설계하였다. 최적화된 항복전압과 온-저항 값을 얻기 위해 본 소자에서 중요한 파라미터인 P-Grid의 도핑농도와 에피층의 도핑농도를 각각 $2{\sim}10{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$, $2{\sim}10{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$으로 변화시키면서 소자의 전기적 특성을 분석하였으며, 그 후 P-Grid의 Space값을 $1{\sim}5{\mu}m$로 설계하여 이에 따른 항복전압과 온-저항의 값을 확인하였다. 항복전압과 온-저항은 서로 trade-off 관계에 있기 때문에 각 변수에서 도출된 값들을 Baliga's Figure Of Merit (BFOM)식에 대입하여 비교하였다. 그 결과 고전압 소자에 적용 가능한 1200 V급 4H-SiC MPS다이오드를 최적화 및 설계를 도출하였다.
