Hearing aids play an very important role in aural rehabilitation for hearing impaired person who could not be medically treated. Especially, hearing aids with dynamic range compression (level dependent frequency response: LDFR) method concentrated dynamic output range of receiver into the narrowing dynamic range of sensorineural hearing impaired person. Thus, if aided hearing threshold level is improved and uncomfortable loudness level rises, then the users of hearing aids are favored with extended dynamic range. This study aims to evaluate audiological benefits in dynamic range compression hearing aids. To achieve this, pure tone and speech audiometry were examined to 15 children and 3 adults with narrow dynamic range moderate-to-severe binaural sensorineural hearing loss.

The experimented rangefinder consist of sets of V/A-Code GPS and sets of L1 C/A-code & carrier phase receivers connected by two spread spectrum radio modems in order to measure relative range and bearing between two ship antennas by real time, comparing and analyzing accuracy of both GPS receivers at the fix point on the land by means of executing zero baseline test by C/A code and by carrier phase as well as measuring distance range 5m, 10m, 15m between each other receivers. The results from the measurement of relative range and bearing are as follows as ;1. According to the results from zero baseline test, the average error by C/A-code receiver is less than 0.1m, which proves theories from published books but when each GPS receivers track different satellites, the range accuracy error becomes up to 100m by means of S/A. Because of this sudden wide range error, rangefinder is not appropriate at relative range measurement without additional modification of the algorism of the GPS receiver itself.2. According to relative range measurement by Carrier Phase and zero baseline test at static condition, the range error is less than 3.5cm in case that it passes more than 5 minutes after GPS sets can track simultaneously more than 6 satellites. Its main reason is understood that the phase center of antenna is bigger than geodetic antenna.3. When range measurement of two receivers from 5m, to 10m to 15m, the each range error is 0.340m, 0.190m, 0.011m and each standard variation is 0.0973m, 0.0884m, 0.0790m. The range error and standard variation are in inverse proportion to distance between two receivers. 4. L1 Carrier Phase GPS generally needs 5 minutes to fix and during this ambiguity search, the relative range and bearing angle is shown to be various.

통신위성 (RF 탑재체 위성)은 고효율 및 고이득 반사경 안테나를 포함하는 통신 탑재체 시스템과 버스 시스템으로 구성되어 있어, 이들 시스템에 대한 RF 특성 검증시험은 발사 전에 이루어져야 한다. 일반적으로 통신위성용 안테나의 복사패턴은 원거리 조건을 충분히 만족할 수 있는 테스트 레인지에서 측정된다. 통신위성용 안테나의 복사패턴을 정밀하게 측정하기 위한 테스트 레인지는 급전점과 관측점 사이의 거리가 수십에서 수천 킬로미터까지 필요하다. 급전점과 관측점 사이의 거리가 먼경우, 외부의 복잡한 RF (radio frequency) 환경에 노출되어 정밀한 측정이 어렵게 되고, 기후의 변화에 따른 측정의 제약을 갖게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 고려하여 외부환경으로부터 영향을 받지 않는 안테나 테스트 레인지가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 현재 진행되고 있는 통신해양기상위성을 비롯하여 앞으로 개발하게 될 통신위성 시스템의 탑재 안테나 및 RF 성능시험을 수행하기 위한 안테나 테스트 레인지의 구성과 레인지 오차 및 평면파의 생성원리를 고찰하구 정밀측정에 부합되는 전파무향실의 설계와 이에 따른 성능 파라미터를 제시하고자 한다.

목 적 : 조영제는 CT모의치료시 정상조직과 악성종양을 구분하는데 뛰어난 대조도를 제공하기 때문에 CT모의치료에 널리 사용하고 있다. 하지만 조영제는 치료계획 CT에서 일시적으로 존재하기 때문에, 치료계획과 실제 치료 사이에는 Hounsfield Unit(HU)의 차이가 발생하게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 조영제 사용으로 인한 HU의 변화가 양성자 치료계획에 미치는 영향을 확인 하고자한다. 대상 및 방법 : 20명의 간암 환자에게서 Phase에 따른 HU값의 변화를 측정하였다, 그리고 5명의 양성자치료계획에서 HU변화에 따른 Range와 Spread-Out Bragg peak(SOBP)의 변화를 살펴보았다. Hand made water phantom을 이용하여 깊이와 HU의 변화에 따른 Range와 SOBP의 변화를 확인하였다. 결 과 : 20명 간암 환자의 HU 변화(Pre contrast, Arterial phase, Porta phase)는 간 조직에서 ($58{\pm}5.7$, $75{\pm}9.5$, $117{\pm}14.6$)이었으며 대동맥에서($40{\pm}6.1$, $279{\pm}49.0$, $154{\pm}22.8$)이었다. 5명의 간암 양성자치료계획에서 HU 변화에 따른 Range 변화는 평균 2.5 mm, SOBP 변화는 평균 1.4 mm 이었다. Hand made water phantom study에서는 HU가 증가함에 따라 Range는 감소되었고 SOBP는 줄어들었다. 결 론 : 양성자 치료계획에서 HU값의 변화는 양성자 Range와 SOBP를 변화시켰다. 실제 양성자 빔에서 HU 변화에 따른 Range와 SOBP의 변화에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료 된다.

An effective method for produce munitions effectiveness data is to calculate weapon effectiveness indices in the US military's Joint Munitions Effectiveness Manuals (JMEM) and take advantage of the damage evaluation model (GFSM) and weapon Effectiveness Evaluation Model (Matrix Evaluator). However, a study about the Range Safety that can be applied in the live firing exercises is very insufficient in the case of ROK military. The Range Safety program is an element of the US Army Safety Program, and is the program responsible for developing policies and guidance to ensure the safe operation of live-fire ranges. The methodology of Weapon Danger Zone (WDZ) program is based on a combination of weapon modeling/simulation data and actual impact data. Also, each WDZ incorporates a probability distribution function which provides the information necessary to perform a quantitative risk assessment to evaluate the relative risk of an identified profile. A study of method to establish for K-Range Safety data is to develop manuals (pamphlet) will be a standard to ensure the effective and safe fire training at the ROK military education and training and environmental conditions. For example, WDZs are generated with the WDZ tool as part of the RMTK (Range Managers Tool Kit) package. The WDZ tool is a Geographic Information System-based application that is available to operational planners and range safety manager of Army and Marine Corps in both desktop and web-based versions. K-Range Safety Program based on US data is reflected in the Korean terrain by operating environments and training doctrine etc, and the range safety data are made. Thus, verification process on modified variables data is required. K-Range Safety rather than being produced by a single program, is an package safety activities and measures through weapon danger zone tool, SRP (The Sustainable Range Program), manuals, doctrine, terrain, climate, military defence M&S, weapon system development/operational test evaluation and analysis to continuously improving range safety zone. Distribution of this K-range safety pamphlet is available to Army users in electronic media only and is intended for the standing army and army reserve. Also publication and distribution to authorized users for marine corps commands are indicated in the table of allowances for publications. Therefore, this study proposes an efficient K-Range Safety Manual producing to calculate the danger zones that can be applied to the ROK military's live fire training by introducing of US Army weapons danger zone program and Range Safety Manual

본 연구는 발화범위 프로파일(Speech Range Profile, SRP) 과제를 개발하고, 개발된 SRP 과제가 최대발화범위를 측정하기에 적합한지 살펴보기 위해 45명의 18-29세 정상음성군을 대상으로 음성범위 프로파일(Voice Range Profile, VRP) 과제와 비교하였다. 이를 위해 한국어의 모든 말소리와 문장 유형을 포함하는 14개 문장으로 구성된 "불이야"문단을 개발하였다. SRP와 VRP 간의 차이를 비교하기 위해 SRP 과제로는 새롭게 개발된 문단으로 문단읽기와 21-30까지 숫자세기를 사용하였고, VRP 과제는 /a/ 모음을 낮은 음도부터 높은 음도까지 활창하기와 축약된 VRP를 사용하였다. SRP와 VRP의 변수로 최고기본주파수($F0_{max}$), 최저기본주파수($F0_{min}$), 기본주파수범위($F0_{range}$), 최대음성강도($I_{max}$), 최소음성강도($I_{min}$) 및 음성강도범위($I_{range}$)를 측정한 후 과제 간 차이를 비교하였다. 그 결과, $F0_{max}$, $F0_{min}$, $F0_{range}$, $I_{max}$ 및 $I_{range}$는 모두 문단읽기의 SRP와 활창하기의 VRP 간에 차이가 없었고, $I_{min}$은 숫자세기의 SRP가 가장 낮은 평균값을 보였다. 즉 새롭게 개발된 SRP 과제인 "불이야" 문단은 정상 음성 산출 화자에서 모음만을 통해 측정된 VRP의 음역대와 유사한 수준의 음역대를 산출할 수 있음을 알 수 있다. 이에 오랜 시간이 소요되거나 중증도의 음성장애에서 측정이 어려울 수 있는 VRP를 대신하여 기능적 말산출 과제인 SRP를 적용함으로써 국내 임상환경에서 비교적 짧은 시간 내에 음성평가를 효과적으로 실시할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

We have surrounded undesired living noises in our life. One of biggest noises coming out of range hood during cooking in the kitchen. A range hood is one of the most important appliances in the kitchen because it ventilates polluted air out during cooking, and maintains air quality in the kitchen. But current kitchen range hoods bring up some issues; First, the range hoods consume massive amount of standby power not in use condition. Second, current models have designed manual fan operating system with sudden onset of noise with starting. In this paper, we propose an auto control system entire processes from air ventilation to noise reduction. Our system is consist of three parts (Eco-sensors pack, Main Controller and Active Noise Controller); Eco-sensors pack detects air pollution of kitchen areas and sends the detection values to Main Controller. Main Controller determines operation of range hood by detected values. Active Noise Controller is located inside of the range hood. It received starting signals from Main Controller which elicits degrees of polluted air condition and fan operating speed from 1 to 3. Once Active Noise Controller detected the signals, it runs a ventilating fan until new value from Main Controller becomes 0. while the range hood works, A noise cancellation algorithm inside of Active Noise Controller become activated to reduce levels of noise. As a result, the proposed system clearly shows reduction in power consumption include standby power and decreases in levels of noise.

This study was designed to establish working range for reoportable range in own laboratory in order to cover the upper and lower limits of the range in test method. We experimented ten times during 10 days for setting of reportable range with between run for method evaluation. It is generally assumed that the analytical method produces a linear response and that the test results between those upper and lower limits are then reportable. CLIA recommends that laboratories verify the reportable range of all moderate and high complexity tests. The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments(CLIA) and Laboratory Accreditation Program of the Korean Society for Laboratory Medicine states reportable range is only required for "modified" moderately complex tests. Linearity requirements have been eliminated from the CLIA regulations and from others accreditation agencies, many inspectors continue to feel that linearity studies are a part of good lab practice and should be encouraged. It is important to assess the useful reportable range of a laboratory method, i.e., the lowest and highest test results that are reliable and can be reported. Manufacturers make claims for the reportable range of their methods by stating the upper and lower limits of the range. Instrument manufacturers state an operating range and a reportable range. The commercial linearity material can be used to verify this range, if it adequately covers the stated linear interval. CLIA requirements for quality control, must demonstrate that, prior to reporting patient test results, it can obtain the performance specifications for accuracy, precision, and reportable range of patient test results, comparable to those established by the manufacturer. If applicable, the laboratory must also verify the reportable range of patient test results. The reportable range of patient test results is the range of test result values over which the laboratory can establish or verify the accuracy of the instrument, kit or test system measurement response. We need to define the usable reportable range of the method so that the experiments can be properly planned and valid data can be collected. The reportable range is usually defined as the range where the analytical response of the method is linear with respect to the concentration of the analyte being measured. In conclusion, experimental results on reportable range using concentrated control sample and zero calibrators covering from highest to lowest range were salicylate $8.8{\mu}g/dL$, phenytoin $0.67{\mu}g/dL$, phenobarbital $1.53{\mu}g/dL$, primidone $0.16{\mu}g/dL$, theophylline $0.2{\mu}g/dL$, vancomycine $1.3{\mu}g/dL$, valproic acid $3.2{\mu}g/dL$, digitoxin 0.17ng/dL, carbamazepine $0.36{\mu}g/dL$ and acetaminophen $0.7{\mu}g/dL$ at minimum level and salicylate $969.9{\mu}g/dL$, phenytoin $38.1{\mu}g/dL$, phenobarbital $60.4{\mu}g/dL$, primidone $24.57{\mu}g/dL$, theophylline $39.2{\mu}g/dL$, vancomycine $83.65{\mu}g/dL$, valproic acid $147.96{\mu}g/dL$, digitoxin 5.04ng/dL, carbamazepine $19.76{\mu}g/dL$, acetaminophen $300.92{\mu}g/dL$ at maximum level.

본 논문에서는 3대의 광대역 레이다에서 얻어지는 각각의 고 분해능 거리 프로파일(high resolution range profile: HRRP)을 이용하여 유도탄의 위치를 추정하는 방법에 대하여 제시한다. 레이다는 유도탄의 레이다유효반사면적(radar cross section: RCS)이 큰 표면에 반사되어 돌아오는 신호를 이용하여 거리를 측정한다. 하지만, 레이다에서 유도탄의 표면과 원점 사이의 거리 획득은 어렵다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 유도탄의 이동방향과 레이다의 추적 방향 사이의 각도를 알아내고, 유도탄의 표면에서 원점까지의 거리를 계산하여 레이다 측정 거리에 보상하였다. 따라서 3대의 레이다로부터 유도탄 원점까지의 총 거리를 계산하여 유도탄의 위치를 추정하였다. 전자기 수치해석 프로그램을 이용하여 유도탄 자세 변화에 따른 레이다의 거리 보상을 시뮬레이션 검증하고, 500 MHz 대역폭의 고 분해능 레이다에서 계측한 거리 프로파일을 이용하여 유도탄의 위치를 추정하였다.
