Objectives: For the traditional pulse diagnosis in Oriental Medicine, not only the pulse shape in time domain, but the width, length and depth of arterial pulse also should be measured. However, conventional pulse diagnostic systems have failed to measure the spatial parameters of the arterial pulse e.g. effective length of arterial pulse in the wrist. In fact, there are many ways to measure that kind of spatial features in arterial pulsation, but among them, the method using image sensor provides relatively cheap and simple way, therefore I tested feasibility of measuring 2-dimensional pressure distribution by imaging devices. Methods: Using widely used PC cameras and dotted balloons, the subtle oscillation of skin over the radial artery was recorded continuously, and then the displacement of every dot was calculated. Consequently, the time course of that displacements shows arterial pulse wave. Results: By the proposed method I could get pressure distribution map with 30Hz sampling rate, 21steps quantization resolution, and approximately 1mm spatial resolution. With reduced quantization resolution, $3cm{\times}4cm$ view angle could be achieved. Conclusion: Although this method has some limitations, it would be useful method for detecting 2-dimensional features of arterial pulse, and accordingly, this method provides a novel way to detect 'narrow pulse', 'wide pulse', 'long pulse', 'short pulse', and their derivatives.

This paper presents an optical sampling technique which can be used to overcome the limited bandwidth of a commercial electronic sampling oscilloscope for pulsed signal measurement. Employing an ultrafast laser with 0.1 ps pulse duration, 20 GHz electromagnetic pulses were generated through a fast photodiode. These pulses were transmitted through a microstrip line and sampled with an optically triggered electro-optic system. Two sampled 20 GHz pulses - measured independently over the transmission line with a non-contacting electro-optic method and conventional electronic one through a coaxial cable - were compared.

Recently, a research on obtaining a vital signal using a Doppler radar has been developed and is used as a technology applied to patients in bed. However, in the case of the measured pulse, the respiration signal is generated as noise, resulting in a problem of lowering accuracy. In this paper, we propose a bio-signal measurement algorithm based on the sampling point to improve the accuracy of the signal for measuring the pulse rate when measuring bio-signals using a Doppler radar. The proposed algorithm improves the accuracy of the measured bio-signal by removing noise generated when measuring biosignals based on two sampling points. Compared with actual medical equipment and existing bio-signal algorithms, it is more than 90% similar to medical equipment. In addition, it was confirmed that severe amplitude change was minimized compared to the existing algorithm.

Pulse count method is the classical reaction wheel speed detection method. In this study, we represent the pulse count method as mathematical equations. Instead of rotation speed, we model the reaction wheel rotation through rotation angle during sampling periods. We verified the effectiveness of the proposed model by comparing the pulse counts variation and averaging method effects from the model and previous research results. Then, we add tacho pulse non-uniformity to this verified model, and examine the errors of pulse count method. We express the measurement error increasement due to non-uniformity as mathematical equations, and also shows the requirement of moving average numbers to offset the measurement errors.

In this paper, an advanced torque control scheme of SRM using DITC(Direct Instantaneous Torque Control) and PWM(pulse width modulation) is presented. Different from conventional DITC method, proposed method uses one or two switching modes at every sampling time, instead of only one switching mode. The duty ratio of the phase switch is regulated according to the torque error and simple control rules of DITC. Moreover the sampling time of control can be extended, which allows implementation on low cost micro-controllers. A simple calculation of PWM can assure a constant switching frequency with an excellent control performance. The proposed control method is verified by the simulations and experimental results.

In this paper, we propose a signal processing board suitable for a semi-active laser tracking to detect an optical signal generated from the laser target designator by applying an analog trigger signal, the quadrant photodetector and a high speed ADC(analog-digital converter) sampling technique. We improved the stability by applying the averaging method to minimize the measurement error of a gaussian pulse. To evaluate the performances of the proposed methods, we implemented a prototype board and performed experiments. As a result, we implemented a frequency counter with an error 14.9ns in 50ms. PRF error code has a stability of less than 1.5% compared to the NATO standard. Applying the three point averaging method to ADC sampling, the stability of 28% in X-axis and 22% in Y-axis than one point sampling was improved.

This paper addresses the current measurement issue of all digital field oriented control of ac motors. The p paper focuses on the effect of low-pass filter and also on the sampling of the fundamental component of the m motor current. The low-pass filter, which suppresses the switching noise of the motor current, introduces v variable phase delay according to the current ripple frequency. It is shown that the current sampling error c consists of the fundamental component and high frL'quency ripple components. In this paper, the dependency of t this current sampling e$\pi$or on the reference voltage vector is investigated analytically and a sampling technique i is proposed to minimize the error. The work is based on the three phase symmetry pulse width modulation l inverter driving an induction machine. With this technique, the bandwidth of current regulator can be extended t to the limit given by the switching frequency of the inverter and more precise torque regulation is possible.

In the playback signal processing of a digital magnetic recording system, the major signal processing processes consist of pulse equalization. pulse detection, clock recovery, and data recovery. Equalizer which compensates interference occurrde between pulses recorded in high density on a magnetic media is realized by pulse slimming method, and pulse detection by a integrating detector. Clock recovery from the detector output was accomplished by using PLL. and data recovery to reduce noise effects was carried out by utilizing the three sampling clocks recovered in clock recovery process. In this paper these processes are implemented in hardware and its performance is evaluated by experimenting with a commercial DAT. It was found that the playback signal processor proposed is suitable to the practical high density magnetic recording system.

This paper proposes the advanced PWM method that can reduce common-mode voltage in three-phase PWM converter-inverter system. By the proper distribution of the zero-voltage vector of inverter, it is possible to cancel out a common-mode voltage pulse in a sampling period. Since the proposed PWM method maintains the effective-voltage vector, it does not affect the control performance of converter-inverter system. Without any extra hardware, overall common-mode voltage can be decreased by one-third compared with conventional PWM scheme.
