Based on intrinsic and scattering quality factor ($Q_i^{-1}$ and$Q_s^{-1}$) obtained from the seismic data of the southeastern Korean Peninsula, the expected coda quality factor (${Q_{Cexp}}^{-1}$) was theoretically calculated using multiple scattering model, and was compared with other quality factors such as $Q_i^{-1}$, $Q_s^{-1}$, and observed $Q_C^{-1}$ obtained by single scattering model. While the ${Q_{Cexp}}^{-1}$ values are typically comparable to the $Q_i^{-1}$ values, the $Q_C^{-1}$ values are different from the ${Q_{Cexp}}^{-1}$ values except for the higher frequency. Future works require to consider depth-dependent attenuation.

Effects of cavity material on the Q-factor measurement of microwave dielectric materials were studied by HFSS simulation and the measurements using metal cavity. $TE_{01\delta}$ mode resonant frequency was determined from the electric and magnetic field patterns and the loaded Q-factor was calculated from 3dB bandwidth of $S_{21}$ spectrum. When the cavity metal materials were Cu, SUS and Au cavity, the level of Q-factor was similar. However, Q-factor was significantly decreased when the cavity metal material was CuO. The Q-factor measurements of dielectric resonator by network analyzer using various metal cavity exhibits consistent behavior.

We analyzed spectral attenuation of coda waves and estimated coda Q values in the crust of the Korean peninsula. 574 NS-component seismograms registered by the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) and Korea Institute of Geology, Mining and Materials (KIGAM) seismic networks with epicentral distances less than 100 km and sampling rate greater than 80 Hz were selected for this study. We estimated coda Q values using the single isotropic scattering model at center frequencies of 1.5, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 Hz with 20 s time window starting from double of the S-wave arrival times. Estimated coda Q value at 1 Hz ($Q_0$) and n value range 50 to 250 and 0.5 to 1.0, respectively, and they are well correlated with the regional geology in the Korean peninsula. The $Q_0$ values in western Korea agree well with those of eastern China.

In Q-algorithm of EPCglobal Class-1 Gen-2 RFID system, the initial value of $Q_{fp}$, which is the slot-count parameter, is not defined in the standard. And the values of weight C, which is the parameter for incrementing or decrementing the slot-count size, are not determined. Therefore, if the number of tags is small and we let the initial $Q_{fp}$ be large, the number of empty slot will be large. On the other hand, if we let the initial $Q_{fp}$ be small in spite of many tags, almost all the slots will be collided. Also, if the reader selects an inappropriate weight, there are a lot of empty or collided slots. As a result, the performance will be declined because the frame size does not converge to the optimal point quickly during the query round. In this paper, we propose a scheme to allocate the optimal initial $Q_{fp}$ through the tag number estimation and select the weight based on the slot-count size of current query round.

강우가 지표면 아래로 침투할 때 초기에는 투수층이 불포화 상태이어서 부압이 작용하면서 침투할 것이다. Richards 식(Richards, 1931)을 써서 불포화 투수층의 침투를 모의할 수 있다. 강우가 지속되는 동안 하상 아래 어느 구간은 포화 상태가 되어 Richards 식을 더 이상 사용할 수 없다. 하지만 현재까지의 연구는 Richards 식을 사용하여 침투를 모의하는 오류를 범하고 있다. 강우에 의한 침투를 예측할 때 지표면에서의 침투율 q_b 가 필요한 데 현존하는 연구에서는 Horton 식(Horton, 1941)을 사용하여 초기 침투율 f_o 와 장시간 후 침투율 f_c 와 시간에 따라 지수함수로 감소하는 계수 k 의 3가지 계수값을 실험이나 현장 관측값에서 찾아서 쓰고 있다. 그런데, 이 계수값은 강우강도 r_i 가 클수록 침투율 q 가 커지는 물리 현상을 반영하지 못하는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서 먼저 포화 투수층에서의 침투를 모의하는 식을 개발하였다. 지표면 아래에서 불포화 투수층에는 Richards식을 사용하고 포화 투수층에는 개발한 식을 사용하여 침투를 모의하였다. 또한 지표면에서의 침투율 q_b 를 구하는 공식을 개발하였다. 하상에서의 침투율의 최대값은 $q_{bmax}=-{\lambda}{\sqrt{2g(s-b)}}$ 일 것이다. 여기서 λ 는 투수층의 공극율, s 는 유출수면의 위치, b 는 지표면의 위치이다. 지표면에서의 침투율의 최소값 q_bmin 은 지표면 바로 아래 지점에서의 침투율일 것이다. 지표면에서의 침투율 q_b 로 q_bmax 와 q_bmin 사이의 적절한 값을 선택한다. 강우강도를 r_i 라고 하면 지표면 위 유출수의 연속방정식은 다음과 같다: $s-b={\int}(r_i-{\mid}q_b{\mid})dt$. 즉, 유출수면의 위치 s 는 강우강도 r_i 가 클수록 또는 지표면에서의 유출율의 크기 |q_b| 가 작을수록 크다. 또한 지표면에서의 침투율 q_b 와 지표면 아래에서의 침투율 q 는 s - b 가 클수록 크다. 따라서, 강우강도 r_i 가 클수록 침투율 q_b, q 가 큰 현상이 잘 반영되었다. 강우-침투-유출 모형실험을 수행하여 강우강도에 따라 침투율과 유출량이 다른 현상을 관측하여 수치실험 결과와 비교·검증하였다.

In Gen-2 Q-algorithm, the initial value of $Q_{fp}$, which is the slot-count parameter, is not defined in the standard. In this case, if we let the initial $Q_{fp}$ be large, the number of empty slot will be large during the initial query round. On the other hand, if the initial $Q_{fp}$ is small, almost all the slots will be collided. As a result, it is anticipated that the performance will be declined because the frame size does not converge to the optimal point quickly during the query round. In this paper, we analyze how the performances of Gen-2 Q-algorithm will be affected by the initial slot-count size.

By applying analytic method to the uniform model, the intrinsic and scattering quality factor ($Q_i^{-1}$ and $Q_s^{-1}$) was separated for the southeastern part of Korean Peninsula. The Multiple Lapse Time Window Analysis method was used to fit theoretical values with observations obtained 759 earthquake data. While previous study for the Korean Peninsula showed very low $Q_i^{-1}$ and $Q_s^{-1}$ reflecting inactive seismicity, southeastern Korea exhibited relatively high $Q_i^{-1}$ and $Q_s^{-1}$ values interpreted as higher seismicity than the other region in the peninsula.

The Yangsan fault in the southeastern Korea has been receiving increasing attention in its seismic activity. In this fault region, by using the extended coda-normalization method for 707 seismograms of local earthquakes, were obtained 0.009f$^{-1.05}$ and 0.004f$^{-0.70}$ for fitting values of Q$_p^{-1}$ and Q$_s^{-1}$, respectively. These results indicate that Q$_p^{-1}$ and Q$_s^{-1}$ in the southeastern Korea is the lowest level in the world although the exponent values agree well with those in the other areas. The low Q-1 is not related to the movement of the Yangsan fault but to the tectonically inactive status like a shield area.

Today, because a quality factor of the inductor fabricated on silicon substrate for RFIC is under 12, the realization of inductor haying high-Q is essential. In this paper, two inductors having improved Q-factor are proposed and fabricated using a bondwire on silicon substrate. Also for the PGS is applied to the same inductors, four inductors are fabricated finally The bondwire Inductors have the relatively low conductor loss due to wide cross-section area and they can reduce the parastic capacitance very much because they are located in the air. Simulation and measurement results show that the proposed inductors have much more improved Q-factor, 15, than a conventional spiral inductor at 1.5 GHz. Because of the use of an automatic bonding machine, we can fabricate the high - Q inductors very easily, repeatedly.

In order to assess the atmospheric dispersion for the accidental releases of nuclear power plants, in calculating X/Q values in the XOQAR and PAVAN codes which are based on Reg. Guide 1.145, the X/Q and frequency values are plotted on log-normal paper. Starting with the highest X/Q value of this plot, the codes compare the slope of the line drawn from this point to every other point within an increment containing ten X/Q values. If there are fewer than ten values, only the number available are used. The coefficients that produce the line with the least negative slope are saved. The end point of this line is used as the next starting point, from which slopes to the points within the next increment, containing ten X/Q values, are compared. The X/Q values corresponding to the cumulative frequency values 0.5%, 5% or 50% are calculated to search for the $0{\sim}2$ hour X/Q value that tends to be a very conservative value. In this work, a fuzzy logic inference method is used for nonlinear interpolation of the X/Q values versus the cumulative frequency. The fuzzy logic inference method is known to be a food technique for nonlinear interpolation. The proposed method was applied to a potential accidential radioactive release of the Yonggwang nuclear power plant, which gives more realistic X/Q values.
