Mammography is the most useful test for the early diagnosis of breast cancer. The MammoPad can be used for the purpose of reducing the pain felt by the patient due to the pressure of the breast. MammoPad cushion the pressure between the breasts and the equipment and reduce the patient's discomfort. A new material pad was fabricated to solve the problem of the H-pad which is currently in circulation. Quantitative evaluation of SNR and CNR and qualitative evaluation of imitation lesion using ACR Phantom were performed. In the quantitative evaluation, SNR and CNR of Non pad and Filter pad were not statistically significant.(p>0.05) In the qualitative evaluation, Fiber and Imitation lesion of H-pad and Filter pad were statistically significant(p<0.05), and all values of Calcification and Mass were not statistically significant. (p>0.05) In addition, Fiber, calcification, mass, and imitation lesion were not statistically significant in both Non pad and Filter pad.(p>0.05) Through this study, it was confirmed that the newly created Filter pad minimizes image quality degradation and can replace existing products.

Recently, demands on light weight, high strength, and low noise or vibration have led to the design of complicated structural systems. Although finite elements [1], mode synthesis [2], and statistical energy analysis [3] can be used to compute the dynamic response of such systems, the structural complexity has made the interpretation of the results of such analysis difficult. Many researchers in dynamic analysis have sought to further develop existing theories or develop alternate methods to obtain greater insight in the behavior of large massive primary systems (P systems) with connected light secondary systems (S systems). Some recent research includes work by Sackman and Kelly [4], Sackman et al.[5], Der Kiureghian et al.[6], and Igusa and Der Kiureghian [7-9] who have combined mode synthesis concepts, matrix algebraic theory, and perturbation methods for characterizing weakly-coupled structural systems. A major limitation of these works are that they are limited to lumped mass S systems. In this paper, the general ideas in the Refs.[4-9] are used to study continuous S systems and the method to reduce the complexity, studied in the works by Igusa, Achenbach, and Min [10,11], is developed into the frequency window method.

As CMOS technology continues to scale down, signal processing is favorably done in the digital domain, which requires Analog-to-Digital (A/D) Converter to be integrated on-chip. This paper presents a design methodology of 12-bit 1-MS/s Rail-to-Rail fully differential SAR ADC using Deep N-well Switch based on binary search algorithm. Proposed A/D Converter has the following architecture and techniques. Firstly, chip size and power consumption is reduced due to split capacitor array architecture and charge recycling method. Secondly, fully differential architecture is used to reduce noise between the digital part and converters. Finally, to reduce the mismatch effect and noise error, the circuit is designed to be available for Rail-to-Rail input range using simple Deep N-well switch. The A/D Converter fabricated in a TSMC 0.18um 1P6M CMOS technology and has a Signal-to-Noise-and-Distortion-Ratio(SNDR) of 69 dB and Free-Dynamic-Range (SFDR) of 73 dB. The occupied active area is $0.6mm^2$.

In this study, an E-band low-noise amplifier (LNA) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) has been designed using silicon-germanium 130-nm bipolar complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology to suppress unwanted signal gain outside operating frequencies and improve the signal gain and noise figures at operating frequencies. The proposed impedance-controllable filter has series (R_s) and parallel (R_p) resistors instead of a conventional inductor-capacitor (L-C) filter without any resistor in an interstage matching circuit. Using the impedance-controllable filter instead of the conventional L-C filter, the unwanted high signal gains of the designed E-band LNA at frequencies of 54 GHz to 57 GHz are suppressed by 8 dB to 12 dB from 24 dB to 26 dB to 12 dB to 18 dB. The small-signal gain S₂₁ at the operating frequencies of 70 GHz to 95 GHz are only decreased by 1.4 dB to 2.4 dB from 21.6 dB to 25.4 dB to 19.2 dB to 24.0 dB. The fabricated E-band LNA MMIC with the proposed filter has a measured S₂₁ of 16 dB to 21 dB, input matching (S₁₁) of -14 dB to -5 dB, and output matching (S₂₂) of -19 dB to -4 dB at E-band operating frequencies of 70 GHz to 95 GHz.

Ultrasonic surgical devices are routinely used for surgical procedures. The incision and coagulation of tissue generate a temperature of $40^{\circ}C-150^{\circ}C$ and depend on the controllable output power level of the surgical device. Recently, research on the classification of grasped tissues to automatically control the power level was published. However, this research did not consider the specific characteristics of the surgical device, tissue denaturalization, and so on. Therefore, this research proposes a robust algorithm that simulates noise to resemble real situations and classifies tissue using conventional classifier algorithms. In this research, the bioimpedance spectrum for six tissues (liver, large intestine, kidney, lung, muscle, and fat) is measured, and five classifier algorithms are used. A signal-to-noise ratio of additive white Gaussian noise diversifies the testing sets, and as a result, each classifier's performance exhibits a difference. The k-nearest neighbors algorithm shows the highest classification rate of 92.09% (p < 0.01) and a standard deviation of 1.92%, which confirms high reproducibility.

Newly developed control methodology applied to dynamic system under random disturbance is investigated and its performance is verified experimentall. Flexible cantilever beam sticked with piezofilm sensor and piezoceramic actuator is modelled in physical domain. Dynamic moment equation for the system is derived via Ito's stochastic differential equation and F-P-K equation. Also system's characteristics in stochastic domain is analyzed simultaneously. LQG controller is designed and used in physical and stochastic domain as wall. It is shown experimentally that randomly excited beam on the base is controlled effectively by designed LQG controller in physical domain. By comparing the result with that of LQG controller designed in stochastic domain, it is shown that new control method, what we called $\ulcorner$Heo-stochastic controller design technique$\lrcorner$, has better performance than conventional ones as a controller.

본 논문은 symmetric balance incomplete block design(BIBD) code의 BER=$10^{-9}$을 만족하는 spectral efficiency를 구하였다. 이 계산 결과 effective power가 큰 경우 ($P_{sr}=-10$ dBm)는 m=2로 고정시키고 q값을 변화시키는 ideal BIBD code구성이 효율적이었다. 이와 반대로 effective power가 작은 경우 ($P_{sr}=-25$ dBm)는 ideal BIBD code 구성 보다는 q > 2인 값을 취하고 m값을 변화시키는 설계가 더 효율적임을 알 수 있었다.

Experimental study on the control of randomly disturbing system is conducted. External and internal disturbances are imposed to the system in combined manner. A vertical propeller system exposed horizontal weak turbulent air flow is chosen as an experimental model. The aim of the control system is to maintain the angular position of vertical propeller in parallel to air flow. Trajectory Tracking Stochastic Controller (TTSC) is designed to ensure system's stability while following system command. The Trajectory Tracking Stochastic Controller is composed of two controller, one is stochastic controller to suppress internal random noise and the other one is trajectory-tracking controller to follow the command having random noise. The proposed hybrid controller, TTSC, shows remarkable performance in pitch control of vertical propeller system in wind-tunnel test

The automated ECG diagnostic systems in hospital have a low P-wave detection capacity in case of some diseases like conduction block. The purpose of this study is to improve the P-wave detection ca- pacity using wavelet transform. The first procedure is to remove baseline drift by subtracting the median filtered signal from the original signal. The second procedure is to cancel ECG's QRS-T complex from median filtered signal to get P-wave candidate. Before we subtracted the templete from QRS-T complex, we estimated the best matching between templete and QRS-T complex to minimize the error. Then, wavelet transform was applied to confirm P-wave. In particular, haiti wavelet was used to magnify P-wave that consisted of low frequency components and to reject high frequency noise of QRS-T complex cancelled signal. Finally, p-wave was discriminated and confirmed by threshold value. By using this method, We can got the around 95.1% P-wave detection. It was compared with contextual information.
