The paper presents a new dynamic displacement measurement system. The developed displacement measurement system consists of a sensor module, a base module and a computation module. The sensor module, which contains a force-balanced accelerometer and low-price RTK-GNSS, measures the high-precision acceleration with sampling frequency of 100Hz, the low-precision displacement and velocity with sampling frequency of 10Hz. The measured data is transferred to the computation module through LAN cable, and precise displacement is estimated in real-time with 100Hz sampling frequency through a two stage Kalman filter. The field test was conducted at San Francisco-Oaklmand Bay bridge, CA, USA to verify the precision of the developed system, and it showed the RMSE was 1.68mm.

Six types of planar thermal converters from TC 1 to TC 6 were designed and fabricated for the purpose of being used as practical standards to alternating current. The respective voltage responses in air and in a vacuum of TC 6, which has the smallest thermal loss, were about 4.03mV/mW and about 6.38 mV/mW. Thermal time constant of TC 6, which has also the smallest heater thermal inertia, was about 8 ms. The respective variations of AC-DC voltage and current transfer errors from sample to sample, which were measured by FRDC(fast reversed DC) method, were about $\pm$0.41 ~$\pm$0.85 ppm and about $\pm$0.15~$\pm$1.16 ppm in the frequent range of 40 Hz~10 KHz with appling 1 V and 5 mA rms sine waves to the converters. All converters investigated exhibited sufficiently low AC-DC transfer errors to be used as practical standards.

SAR is an active imaging sensor emitting its own energy source and can be operated in all weather conditions. Thus SAR provides data which can not be obtained by an optical sensor. In this study, the potentials and problems of the techniques for DEM extraction from the SAR imagery were evaluated through theoretical researches and practical experiments. And then the accuracy was tested by RMS error between the digitized map contour and the results from this experiment. Here, two types of DEM extraction method were evaluated. One was an analytical photogrammetric technique, and the other was a SAR interferometric processing. From the experiment, we found that the photogrammetric technique is currently the most suitable method considering topographic conditions of Korea. In the SAR interferometry technique, we also conclude that the problems caused by decorrelations due to the temporal reasons and due to the scattering effects from vegetation should be solved.

The parameters of the modified BM and JONSWAP spectra are estimated using spectral data set off Namhangjin, located in the east coast of Korea, collected during high wave events. The parameters of the modified BM spectrum were estimated to be 1.04 and 0.27, which were similar to the conventional values of 1.098 and 0.30, but showed significant differences in statistical terms. On the other hand, the peak enhancement factor of JONSWAP spectrum was estimated to be 1.4, which was substantially small compared to the conventional value of 3.3. The RMSE differences from the fitted results of the two spectra were small, approximately 0.2. In the frequency range greater than the peak frequency, however, the spectral energy density showed relatively mild decrease with increase of the frequency, compared to the standard forms of the modified BM and JONSWAP spectra.

In this paper, we propose a new gaze detection method using 2-D facial images captured by a camera on top of the monitor. We consider only the facial rotation and translation and not the eyes' movements. The proposed method computes the gaze point caused by the facial rotation and the amount of the facial translation respectively, and by combining these two the final gaze point on a monitor screen can be obtained. We detected the gaze point caused by the facial rotation by using a neural network(a multi-layered perceptron) whose inputs are the 2-D geometric changes of the facial features' points and estimated the amount of the facial translation by image processing algorithms in real time. Experimental results show that the gaze point detection accuracy between the computed positions and the real ones is about 2.11 inches in RMS error when the distance between the user and a 19-inch monitor is about 50~70cm. The processing time is about 0.7 second with a Pentium PC(233MHz) and 320${\times}$240 pixel-size images.

For several years, although the demand of high accuracy kinematic positing using multiple bases has been increased, most of the commercial GPS processing softwares can provide the single-baseline solutions only. Thus, we studied the methods to improve the accuracy of the kinematic positioning using the network configuration based on the several single-baseline solutions. As discussed in this study, the positioning accuracy as well as the network stability is improved by introducing the geodetic network adjustment theories into the kinematic positioning application. Three different methods to remove the rank-deficiency, RLESS, BLIMPBE and SCLESS, are analyzed in this study. The 3D RMS error has been improved from 3.5cm(max) to 2.1cm using the network-based kinematic positioning, and it is desired to choose BLIMPBE and SCLESS depending on the accuracy of the base stations.

최근 기후변화에 따른 국지성 집중호우 및 돌발홍수 증가로 도심지역에 많은 침수 피해가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 내외수에 영향을 받는 도시 중소하천의 침수 저감을 위하여 침수 예측모형에 적용 가능한 수리학적 계산모형을 개발하는 것이다. 일반적으로 자연하천은 수지형 수계가 대부분이며, 도시 우수관로와 관계배수 시스템 등은 폐합형 수계에 포함되어 수지형 계산모형으로는 도시 중소하천의 유출 모의를 할 수 없다. 폐합형 수계의 계산모형은 수지형에 비해 복잡하지만, 적용대상 수계가 폐합형이 아닌 경우에도 합류점의 유입량을 처리하기가 편리하고, 역방향의 월류 흐름이 존재하는 감조하천에서의 월류 흐름 모의가 가능한 장점을 갖고 있어 도시 내배수 시스템은 물론 자연하천에도 적용 할 수 있다. 본 모형은 절점, 수로 및 계산점으로 구성되는데 동력학적 방법인 1차원 Saint-Venant의 연속 방정식과 운동량 방정식에 수치해법을 이용하여 구하고자 하는 시간과 지점의 수위와 유량을 계산할 수 있게 구성하였다. 수치해법으로는 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 유한차분법 중 안정성과 정확성이 우수한 것으로 평가된 Preissmann의 4점 음해법으로 차분방정식에 Newton-Raphson 방법을 사용하여 유량과 수위 보정치에 Double Sweep 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 유한차분법은 안정성 문제를 수반할 수 있기에 시간 증분이 작을수록 Courant 조건을 만족할 수 있다. 모형 비교 검증을 위하여 동력학적 방법을 적용한 대표적인 폐합형 수계모형인 EPA SWMM을 지원하는 CHI사의 PC-SWMM 프로그램을 이용하여 가상의 폐합 수계를 구축하였다. 일반적으로 상류지점의 경계조건은 하류로 추적될 입력 자료로써, 상류지점과 합류지점은 유입되는 유량값을 그리고 하류지점은 유출되는 수위값을 경계조건으로 입력하였다. 운동량방정식의 에너지 경사와 마찰경사 항에 포함된 조도계수는 변화량에 중요한 물리적 요소이지만, 고정 상수값인 0.03을 적용하여 검증에 용의하도록 하였다. 구축된 모형과 PC-SWWM을 통해 산출된 계산점별 수위와 유량에 RMS 오차를 비교한 결과 만족할만한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 향후 내외수를 연계에 침수예측모형에 적용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

In order for thermal degradationIn, excore nuclear flux monitoring system, as a monitoring and signal processing methodology of reactor power, monitors neutron pulses generated during nuclear fission as frequency status, and converts them into DC voltage, and then log values resultantly. The methods realy applied in the nuclear power plant are to construct combination of counters and flip-flops, or diodes and capacitors up to now. These methodes are reliable for relative high frequencies, while not credible for reasonable low frequencies or extreme low values. Therefore, we developed the circuit that converts frequencies into DC voltages, into and into log DC values in the wide range from low Hz to several hundred high kHz. We proved their validities through testing them using real data used in nuclear power plant and analyzed their results. And, these methods will be used to measure the neutron level of excore nuclear flux monitoring system in nuclear power plant.

This paper presents a beam-forming receiver with polyphase In-phase/Quadrature-phase (I/Q) network for airborne communication. In beam-forming receiver, the insertion loss (IL) difference between input path increases the receiver noise figure (NF). The major element for generating IL difference is the impedance variation of phase shifter. In order to maintain a constant IL in every phase, this paper propose a lossless polyphase I/Q network based beam-forming receiver. The proposed lossless polyphase I/Q network has low Q-factor and high impedance for drive back-end VGA (Variable gain amplifier) block with low insertion loss. The 2-stage VGA controls in-phase and quadrature-phase amplitude level for vector summation. The proposed beam-forming receiver prototype is fabricated in TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The prototype cover the $360^{\circ}$ with $5.6^{\circ}$ LSB. The average RMS phase error and amplitude error is approximately $1.6^{\circ}$ and 0.3dB.

Ortho images and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) have been applied in various fields. It is necessary to acquire Ground Control Points (GCPs) for processing high resolution satellite images. However surveying GCPs require many time and expense. This study was performed to investigate whether GCPs automatically extracted from ortho images and DTED Level 2 can be applied to sensor modeling for high resolution satellite images. We analyzed the performance of the sensor model established by GCPs extracted automatically. We acquired GCPs by matching satellite image against ortho images. We included the height acquired from DTED Level 2 data in these GCPs. The spatial resolution of the DTED Level 2 data is about 30m. Absolution accuracy of this data is below 18m above MSL. The spatial resolution of ortho image is 1m. We established sensor model from IKONOS images using GCPs extracted automatically and generated DEMs from the images. The accuracy of sensor modeling is about $4{\sim}5$ pixel. We also established sensor models using GCPs acquired based on GPS surveying and generated DEMs. Two DEMs were similar. The RMSE of height from the DEM by automatic GCPs and DTED Level 2 is about 9 m. So we think that GCPs by DTED Level 2 and ortho image can use for IKONOS sensor modeling.
