안테나 단에서 직접 수신 신호의 디지털화가 이루어지고 그 해당 신호의 처리는 고속 디지털 신호처리기 내에서 소프트웨어로 수행되는 방식을 SWR(Software Radio)이라 한다. 그러나 현재의 기술 수준을 감안하여 보다 현실적인 SDR(Software Defined Radio) 정의가 필요하게 되었다. SDR이란 수신신호의 디지털화가 안테나 이하의 임의의 단(IF단)에서 이루어지는 무선으로 정의된다. 물론 A/D변환기등의 기술이 더욱 발전되면 궁극적으로는 SWR로 진화될 것이다. 그러면 SDR은 왜 필요한 것일까? 현재 사용중인 이동통신 단말기의 단점은 어느 한 표준 또는 방식에 종속되어 언제 어디서나 임의의 시스템에 접속되어 사용하기에는 많은 기술 종속적인 문제 및 제약을 내포하며, 사용방식에 따른 시스템의 유연성이 없고, 상용 서비스 도중에 발생되는 단말기 문제의 해결(recall service)이 어렵고, 많은 기술료를 지불해야 한다는 것이다. 부연하면 CDMA 셀룰라의 경우 퀄컴 등의 특정한 회사에 의해 기술이 폐쇠되어, 정보의 흐름이 자유스럽지 못할 뿐더러, 이로 인해 기술진화가 보다 빠르게 진행되지 못하고, 전세계적으로 많은 새로운 우수 제품의 출연에 제약이 가해진다는 것이다. 따라서 SDR(Software Defined Radion)을 도입, 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어를 개방형 구조(open architecture)로 개발한다면 정보의 흐름을 자유롭게 할 수 있고, 이로 인하여 세계적으로 다양한 신제품의 개발이 촉진되고 결과적으로 전세계 시장이 커지게 되는 일석이조의 효과를 얻을 수 있게 된다. 또한 이 같은 개방형 단말기 개발의 필요성은 최근 시장동향으로 볼 때, 기존의 단말기 회사 입장에서는 새로운 수익 모델이 필요한 시점이고, 또한 2002년경에 판매되는 단말기의 80%정도는 멀티모드타입 단말기일 것으로 예측되는 점, 그리고 금년말까지 100개 회사 이상이 SDR 포럼 멤버로 가입할 것으로 예측되는 점, 무선 인터넷 폭발적인 성장으로 복합 멀티미디어 단말기 시대가 다가오는 점 등으로 미루어 볼 때, 고객의 서비스 가치선택에 역점을 둔 기술을 중시해야 한다는 점에서 더욱 설득력을 지닌다. 따라서 이 같은 목적과 3세대 이동통신 및 인터넷 사용자의 증가, 반도체기술의 발전에 힘입어, 과거 군용 시스템에서 이용되던 SWR 기술을 상용시스템 특히 3세대 이동통신에 적용하려는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. '96년 SDR 포럼이 결성되었는데, 목적은 휴대형 장치(hand-held devices), 기지국(base stations), 차량형 장치(mobile stations)를 포함하는 다중모드(multi-mode), 다중대역(multi-band) SDR을 위한 개방형 구조의 표준을 정하기 위함이다. 이 같이 public forum에 의한 표준(open architecture standard)이 정해지면 그 다음은 이를 어떻게 구현할 것인가가 문제가 될 것이다. 본고에서는 먼저 SDR 단말기 요구사항을 살펴보고, 이 요구사항들을 만족하는 SDR 단말기 구조, SDR 계층참조 모델, 그리고 기존의 단말기 구조와 SDR 계층참조 모델의 연관관계에 대해 살펴보고, 크게 두가지 종류의 단말기 즉 사용 SDR 단말기와 군용 SDR 단말기에 대해 살펴보고, 설계 절차 및 현재 시점에서 단말기 구현을 위해 해결해야 하는 기술적 과제를 살펴보고 결론을 언급한다.

The extreme heat watch and warnings (EHWW) which is constructed as a part of the climate change adaptation took effect in the summer of 2008, but active response actions failed to be taken because of low perception among citizens. Therefore, a survey investigation targeting citizens residing in Busan and the Gyeongnam province was conducted in order to know the perception regarding EHWW issued by the Korea Meteorological Administration, to identify the main media through which information is acquired, and to propose an improvement measures which may enhance the usefulness and the degree of satisfaction of weather information. The results are as follows; The perception regarding EHWW was not very high as it remained at 59.8% in terms of percentile. Although the statistical significance was not fulfilled in the categories of gender or occupation, significant differences did exist among age groups. The main medium through which citizens acquired information regarding EHWW was the television, which was followed in order by the internet, acquaintances, short message service (SMS), radio, newspapers, the 131 weather hotline, and other media. The usefulness of EHWW was somewhat high (67.2%), and female students were found to utilize the information to a higher degree than male students. The statistics on the level of satisfaction regarding the weather information (65.4%) revealed that most respondents were satisfied. Housewives, professional, and the elder age groups exhibited great satisfaction, leading to the conclusions that the level of perception and interest regarding to the special weather reports (SWR) have an impact on satisfaction of SWR.

In this paper, a triple-band multiplexer using a microstrip transmission line was designed and fabricated to make use of a low power portable base station. This multiplexer was used in the triple-band including the cellular, WCDMA and LTE mobile frequency band, and designed to have an insertion loss of 0.8 dB, low SWR of 1.5 in the passband and a band rejection of 15 dB in the stopband. From the measured results obtained by a confidence test for the fabricated multiplexer samples, the maximum insertion loss and SWR of the fabricated multiplexer samples in all passbands of 824-894MHz, 1920-2170 MHz and 2500-2600 MHz were below 0.71 dB and 1.38, and the attenuations in the stopbands were better than 15 dB. Therefore, the triple-band multiplexer has good performance and satisfies the design specifications.

The swine is one of the most widespread mammalian throughout the whole world. Presently, many studies concerning microsatellites in swine, especially domestic pigs, have been carried out in order to investigate general diversity patterns among either populations or breeds. Until now, a lot of time and effort spend into a single PCR method. But simple and more rapid multiplex PCR methods have been developed. The purpose of this study is to develop a robust set of microsatellites markers (MS marker) for traceability and individual identification. Using multiplex-PCR method with 23 MS marker divided 2 set, various alleles occurring to 5 swine breed (Berkshire, Landrace, Yorkshire, Duroc and Korea native pig) used markers to determine allele frequency and heterozygosity. MS marker found 4 alleles at SW403, S0227, SWR414, SW1041 and SW1377. The most were found 10 alleles at SW1920. Heterozygosity represented the lowest value of 0.102 at SWR414 and highest value of 0.861 at SW1920. So, it was recognized appropriate allele frequency for individual identification in swine. Using multiplex-PCR method, MS markers used to determine individual identification biomarker and breed-specific marker for faster, more accurate and lower analysis cost. Based on this result, a scientific basis was established to the existing pedigree data by applying genetics additionally. Swine traceability is expected to be very useful system and be conducted nationwide in future.

This paper presents the impact of couple stress lubricant on performance of slot-entry hydrostatic/hybrid journal symmetric/asymmetric bearings. Reynolds Equation using Finite Element Technique has been solved for the flow of couple stress and Newtonian lubricants in bearings. The results have been computed for concentric design pressure ratio(${\beta}^{\ast}=0.5$), slot width ratio (SWR = 0.25) and chosen parameters of couple stress lubricant ${\bar{l}}=5$, 10, 15. It is observed that numerically simulated outcomes for slot-entry journal bearings, considering the influence of couple stress lubricant indicate a substantial improvement in the performance of the bearing.

The pole antenna of vehicles for AM/FM radio broadcasting receptions has many probems, such as damageable mechanical system and noise etc. It is considered that noise is composed of the structural vibration noise and the air flow induced aerodynamic noise. Also we find out that the setting process of a printed on-glass automobile antenna has many difficulties. Recently, the above mentioned problems can be reduced by employing enhanced wiper antenna which utilizes the windshied wiper arm. The new system is a passive antenna. In this study, experiments for the characteristics of a wiper antenna by measuring the SWR, radiation pattern and received powe have been carried out. The experimental results show that the efficiency of the wiper antenna has better performance than any other antenna.

In this paper, we consider the problem of estimation of average radar cross section (RCS) for Swerling 1 fluctuation model, based on the maximum likelihood (ML) estimation method. In a mathematical development we take into account the event that target strength is lower than detection threshold, or the target is not detected. Our ML estimation for the SWR uses the score function that is the joint probability-pdf of the events and random variables. The solution to the ML estimation reduces to an expression in the from of a contraction mapping. The computational efficiency of the contraction mapping theorem is significant in computing the ML estimation as compared with other root-finding algorithms fur most radar tracking conditions.

″H″ type resonator has the advantage for the miniaturization of high-T7 superconducting (HTS) microstrip antenna in comparison with the conventional microstrip antenna such as rectangular type or circular type. In this paper we designed miniaturized HTS antennas using this "H"-type resonator and reported the characteristics of our antennas including return loss, bandwidth, radiation patterns, efficiency and so on. To fabricate the "H" type antenna, HTS YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) thin films were deposited on MgO substrates using rf-magnetron sputtering. For comparison between normal conducting antennas and superconducting antennas, the gold antennas with the same dimension were also fabricated. An aperture coupling was used for impedance matching between 50 $\Omega$ feed line and HTS radiating patch. The ″H" type superconducting antenna showed the performance of 1.38 in SWR, 26 % in efficiency, and 13.8 dB in the return loss superior to the normal conducting counterpart.
