The hologram of an object contains the information of the object's depth distribution as well as the depth location of the object. However these pieces of information are blended together as a form of fringe pattern. This makes it hard to extract the depth location of the object directly from the hologram. In this paper, I propose a numerical method which separates the depth location information from the single-sideband hologram by gaussian low-pass filtering. The depth location of the object is extracted by numerical analysis of the filtered hologram. The hologram at the object's depth location is recovered by the extracted depth location.

This paper describes an advanced measuring method and precise evaluation of the ground resistance for the grounding system of energized substations and power equipments. A grounding system of substations consists of all interconnected grounding connections of grounded conductors, neutral ground wires, underground conductors of distribution lines, cable shields, grounding terminals of equipments, and etc. It is very difficult to measure the accurate ground resistance of the grounding terminals of equipments, and etc. It is very difficult to measure the accurate ground resistance of the grounding system of high voltage energized substations because of harmonic components caused by switched power supplies or overloads. The conventional fall-of-potential method may be subject to big error if stray ground currents and potentials are present. In this work, to improve the precision in measurements of the ground resistance by eliminating the effects of harmonic components and stray currents and potentials, the investigations of the ground resistance measurement by using a low pass filter in a model energized grounding system were conducted. The accuracy of ground resistance mesurements was evaluated as a function of the ratio of the test signal to noise (S/N). The errors due to the proposed ground resistance measurement method were decreased with increasing S/N and were less than 5[%] as S/N is 10. The proposed ground resistance measurement method appears to be considerably more accurate than the conventional fall-of -potential method. It is allows cancellation of the parasitic resistance of energized grounding systems, to employ the measurement method that allows cancellation of the parasitic effects due to other circulating ground currents and ground potential rises in practical situations.

The reconstructed images from highly compressed MPEG or H.263 data have noticeable image degradations, such as blocking artifacts near the block boundaries, corner outliers at cross points of blocks, and ringing noise near image edges, because the MPEG or H.263 quantizes the transformed coefficients of 8$\times$8 pixel blocks. A post-processing algorithm has been proposed by authors to reduce quantization effects, such as blocking artifacts, corner outliers, and ringing noise, in MPEG-decompressed images. Our signal-adaptive post-processing algorithm reduces the quantization effects adaptively by using both spatial frequency and temporal information extracted from the compressed data. The blocking artifacts are reduced by one-dimensional (1-D) horizontal and vertical low pass filtering (LPF), and the ringing noise is reduced by two-dimensional (2-D) signal-adaptive filtering (SAF). A comparison study of the subjective quality evaluation using modified single stimulus method (MSSM), the objective quality evaluation (PSNR) and the computation complexity analysis between the signal-adaptive post-processing algorithm and the MPEG-4 VM (Verification Model) post-processing algorithm is performed by computer simulation with several MPEG-4 image sequences. According to the comparison study, the subjective image qualities of both algorithms are similar, whereas the PSNR and the comparison complexity analysis of the signal-adaptive post-processing algorithm shows better performance than the VM post-processing algorithm.

The high-pass transportation information system directly collects section information by using probe cars and therefore can offer more reliable information to drivers. However, because the running condition and features of probe cars and statistical processing methods affect the reliability of the information and particularly because the section travel time is greatly influenced by whether there has been delay by signals on urban roads or not, there can be much deviation among the collected individual probe data. Accordingly, researches in multilateral directions are necessary in order to enhance the credibility of the section information. Yet, the precedent studies related to high-pass information provision have been conducted on the highway sections with the feature of continuous flow, which has a limit to be applied to the urban roads with the transportational feature of an interrupted flow. Therefore, this research aims at analyzing the features of high-pass transportation data on urban roads and finding a proper processing method. When the characteristics of the high-pass data on urban roads collected from RSE were analyzed by using a time-space diagram, the collected data was proved to have a certain pattern according to the arriving cars' waiting for signals with the period of the signaling cycle of the finish node. Moreover, the number of waiting for signals and the time of waiting caused the deviation in the collected data, and it was bigger in traffic jam. The analysis result showed that it was because the increased number of waiting for signals in traffic jam caused the deviation to be offset partially. The analysis result shows that it is appropriate to use the mean of this collected data of high-pass on urban roads as its representative value to reflect the transportational features by waiting for signals, and the standard of judgment of delay and congestion needs to be changed depending on the features of signals and roads. The results of this research are expected to be the foundation stone to improve the reliability of high-pass information on urban roads.

Data is represented by file structure in Computer System. But the file size is to be larger, it is hard to control and transmit. Therefore, in recent years, many researchers have developed new algorithms for the data compression. And now, we introduce a new Dynamic Compression Technique, making up for the weaknesses of huffman's. The huffman compression technique has two weaknesses. The first, it needs two steps of reading, one for acquiring character frequency and the other for real compression. The second, low compression rate caused by storing tree information. These weaknesses can be solved by our new Dynamic Relocatable Method, reducing the reading pass by relocating data file to dynamic form, and then storing tree information from pipeline structure.

We established the laser oscillator using Nd:YAG crystal grown at Ssang Yong company in Korea and investigated the characteristics of oscillation, Q-switching and wave front of output beam. We measured the single pass gain by controlling the threshold input energy with two output couplers of different output reflectances. Moreover, we compared the gain measured by different output couplers with the gain directly measured by the laser amplifier. The peak power of Q-switching, the pulse width, and the single pass gain coefficient at the threshold energy were 1.5 MW, 30ns, and 0.0958 cm-$^1$ respectively and they were compared with those of the commercial Nd:YAG crystal. Our crystal was proved to be as good as the commercial crystal.

We present a high speed pitch estimation algorithm that is based on peak detection and average magnitude difference function (AMDF). A few pitch candidates are first estimated from the low-pass filtered (800 Hz) speech by a peak detection algorithm. AMDF values of the pitch candidatestare then calculated, and the pitch candidate that yields the minimum AMDF value is chosen as the desired pitch period. The new method requires far less computation time than other pitch estimation algorithms, while it yields fairly accurate results.

The Hilbert transform performs a role to transform band pass signals into low pass signals in wireless communication systems. The operation of Hilbert transform is based on a convolution process which is required adding and multiplying calculations. When the Hilbert transform is designed and hardware-implemented at gate level, the adding and multiplying operation requires a high power consumption and a occupation of wide area on a chip. So the results of adding and multiplying operation cause to degrade the performance of implemented system. In this paper, the new Hilbert transformer is proposed, which has a low hardware complexity by application of MAG(Minimum Adder Graph) algorithm. The proposed Hilbert transformer was simulated in ISE environment of Xilinx and showed the reduction of hardware complexity comparing with the number of gate in the conventional Hilbert transformer.

This paper proposed the band pass filter(BPF) with feeding structure using $\pi$-type transmission line by means of transforming the input/output coupled-lines of the half wavelength parallel coupled-line BPF into K-inverter, then substituting $\pi$-type transmission line equivalence for K-inverter. The proposed method supplies solution with what the half wavelength parallel coupled-line BPF's input/output coupled-lines are realized. Also it can quite reduce efforts and time needed to optimize filter performance when is compared to reported method using tapped line structure because formulas is very simple and accurate. On the basic of the proposed method, the BPF with feeding structure using $\pi$-type transmission line has been designed and fabricated. The validity of proposed method was proven by the measured result.

Grain refinement is the only strengthening mechanism that improves both strength and toughness. Controlled rolling and accelerated cooling techniques have been known to be effective method to improve the mechanical properties by controlling the recrystallization and/or grain coarsening during processing. Repeat phase transformation $(\gamma/\alpha)$ by repeat heat treating is another way of grain refinement. In this study, a combined effect of controlled rolling and repeat heat treating was investigated. To study the effects of Mo addition and process parameters, Mo alloyed low carbon steels were prepared and thermomechanical controlled processes were simulated in the Gleeble system. The Mo addition resulted in an increasement of the grain coarsening temperature and suppress austenite recrystallization. The optimum condition for the refinement of austenite was obtained when the controlled rolling was performed twice with the same heat treatment condition, and reduction ratio of second pass was higher than that of first pass.
