In this paper, we demonstrate a Non-Foster matching method for an electrically small antenna to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of communication link. For the experiment, we used a general FM antenna whose resonance frequency is about 52-57 MHz and a floating type Linvill negative impedance converter(NIC)-based circuit as a Non-Foster matching element. By implementing the Non-Foster circuit to cover FM band, we can achieve a wide bandwidth matching covers 40-200 MHz. Our measurement shows 3-7 dB improvement of SNR for the same bandwidth though there are several spikes which means no improvement of SNR in the band.

Ring/dot-type step-down piezoelectric transformer was manufactured by using Pb[(Mn$\sub$1/3/Sb$\sub$2/3)$\sub$0.05/Zr$\sub$0.475/Ti$\sub$0.475/]O$_3$ ceramics, which have excellent high-power piezoelectric properties. The characteristics of step-down piezoelectric transformer as a function of load resistance at output terminal was examined. Voltage gain was greatly dependent on drive frequency and load resistance, and showed maximum voltage gain at the resonance frequency. The output voltage was linearly increased as the input voltage increased. Voltage gain of the step-down piezoelectric transformer with respect to input voltage was very stable when the load resistance was in the range of 50-500 $\Omega$ .

The aim of the study is to scrutinize the relationship between the area of resonance and center frequency with varying thickness by analyzing the characteristics of 2-port resonator. This was done through ideal design using Leach model equivalent model modified Mason model equivalent circuit for the application of bandpass filter high-frequency band with resonator Moreover, through the design of ladder-type BPF, we were able to observe changes in bandwidth, resonation, out-of-band rejection depending on the number and area of resonator.

This paper proposes a novel PWM technique for a three phase current fad type converters. A minor loop compensation method is introduced to compensate leading current and to minimize input line current (Iu) distortion resulting from the resonance between AC filter capacitor and source inductance of power system. This PWM converter has excellent characterics as next. The control system is simply designed, and the operation with unity power factor can be easily obtained by automatic compensating the leading current of the filter circuit. Also. the three phase sinusoidal input current can be obtained.

Nowadays, diesel power plant using low speed two stroke diesel engine is widely used in islands and restricted areas. Considerations were given to its benefit of high thermal efficiency, reliability and durability compared to the other prime movers. However, various types of engine vibration affect neighboring buildings to their structural vibration. For this, diesel power plant are held liable for the troubles caused by these vibration. These are mainly due to the X- and H-type engine vibrations which we excited by the X- and H- guide force moment. Authors have identified a structural vibration of new pattern called ‘T-mode vibration’ due to the torsional vibration of shafting system. In this paper, T-mode vibration is analyzed through an experimental method based on the global vibration measurement.

This report describes a case of diffuse neurofibroma[DNF] that presented with spontaneous intratumoral hemorrhage. A 31-year-old man with cutaneous manifestations typical of neurofibromatosis type 1[NF1] was referred to hospital with a progressively expanding scalp swelling. Magnetic resonance imaging[MRI] showed an acute hematoma surrounded by a dense mass on the parietooccipital scalp. Plain skull radiographs and a computed tomography[CT] scan revealed bony defects in the occipital bone around the lambdoid suture and the skull base, including the sphenoid and petrous bones. The tumor extended to the upper cervical region and infiltrated through the fascia of the musculature. The tumor and adjacent soft tissue were highly vascular, which made surgical resection difficult. We describe the clinical, radiological and pathological features of this patient md discuss the surgical methods used to avoid a life-threatening hemorrhage during surgery.

Unipoled piezoelectric transformers were designed with different input and output area ratios. The voltage step-up ratio increased proportionally with increasing the input area. The piezoelectric transformers operated in each transformer's resonance vibration mode. In this paper, ANSYS(FEM program) was used for analysing piezoelectric transformers. We compared with analysis and experimental results. The voltage step-up ratio showed maximum value in output area of small size. Output characteristics of piezoelectric transformers with various size were simulated. The result of analysis showed $2\sim7$ times higher voltage step-up ratio than a experiment result.

This paper presents a new sustain driver employing energy recovery function to minimize power losses transpired during the operation of plasma display panel. The proposed circuit uses the resonance between the equivalent capacitance of panel and an external inductor to provide/recover energy to/from the panel. The proposed circuit can save the system cost compared with the conventional one, and has high-performance in energy recovery. To verify the validity of the proposed circuit, we implemented experiments based on 7.5 inch AC-PDP.

$^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR spectra for pyridine, ${\beta}$-and ${\gamma}$-picoline, pyrazine, and 4,4'-bipyridyl complexed with paramagnetic undecatungstocobalto(II)silicate and undecatungstonickelo(II)silicate anions are reported. For these complexes the ligand exchange is slow on the NMR time scale and the pure resonance lines have been observed at room temperature. The isotropic shifts in nickel complexes can be interpreted in terms of contact shifts by ${\sigma}$-electron delocalization. Both contact and pseudocontact shifts contribute to the isotropic shifts in cobalt complexes. The contact shifts, which are obtained by subtracting the pseudocontact shifts from the isotropic shifts, require both ${\sigma}$-and ${\pi}$-electron delocalization from the cobalt ion. Slow ligand exchange has also allowed us to identify the species formed when bidentate ligands react with the heteropolyanions. Pyrazine forms a 1 : 1 complex, while 4,4'-bipyridyl forms both 1 : 1 and dumbbell-shaped 1 : 2 complexes.

ZnGa2O4: Mn phosphors were prepared by a new chemical process, and their photoluminescence and electron paramagnetic resonance characteristics were investigated. The chemical method showed a low temperature formation of phosphors and a rod-type shape of particles. The strong ultraviolet emission was observed in the undoped ZnGa2O4 phosphor, while strong green emission in the Mn2+-activated ZnGa2O4 phosphor. The green emission intensity of the phosphor prepared by the chemical method was much stronger than that prepared by the conventional method. This difference with preparation methods was interpreted as due to the difference in the distribution of Mn2+ in the host lattice. From EPR results, it was explained that the line intensity of the undoped ZnGa2O4 is associated with the electrical conductivity of this material and the concentration quenching of green luminescence of ZnGa2O4: Mn at higher Mn2+ concentration is attributed to the coupling by exchange interaction between Mn2+ ions.
