The column-type sensing element in building and mechanical construction parts was designed as three forces and three moments sensor by attaching strain gages approximately. Compared to conventional multi-component sensor, the designed sensor can solve the problem about low stiffness and high cost. The radius of the column was designed analytically and compared with finite element analysis. The coupling errors between components were minimized by using addition and subtraction procedure of signals. The fabricated sensor was tested by using a deadweight force standard machine and a six-component force calibration machine in Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science(KRISS). The calibration showed that the multi-component force/moment sensor had coupling error less than 19.8 % between $F_x$ and $M_y$ components, and 9.0 % in case of other components.

SAW device is widely used as filters, sensors, actuators in various technologies. And capacitive sensor is tremendously used to measure pressure, gap, etc. The application of SAW device as signal conditioner of capacitive sensor reduces noise level and enables high precision measurement. The response increase of SAW based capacitive sensor is produced just before the two capacitive electrode contacts by the existence of parasitic resistance of capacitive electrode. In this paper, we analyze the effects of parasitic resistance and propose the calibrating method using lumped component and execute the high precision gap measurement using calibrated system. And xx nm resolution and yy ${\mu}m$ stroke was attained.

In this study, a beta monitoring sensor was developed as a part of basic research for quantitative beta monitoring underwater, and its performance was evaluated using a calibration source. A beta detection sensor was manufactured by using SiPM(silicon photomultiplier) and $CaF_2$:Eu, YAG:Ce, YAP:Ce scintillator. A large-area light guide was introduced to improve beta-ray detection efficiency. As calibration sources, the Beta source $^{90}Sr$, which is the main fission product of a nuclear accident, and the gamma source $^{137}Cs$ are used. In the performance evaluation, it is confirmed that scintillator $CaF_2:Eu$ gives the highest beta-ray detection response. Compared to gamma ray, beta-ray detection responsivity and detection efficiency are verified. Therefore, this study is expected to contribute to basic research in the development of an underwater beta-ray monitoring system.

With a newly designed capacitive torque sensor a multipurpose magnetometer for measuring basic magnetic characteristics such as hyteresis loops, magnetic anisotropy and magnetostriction was built. In order to calibrate the capacitive torque sensor, we measured the output voltages of the sensor by applying the torques due to the electromagnetic and gravitational forces. Experimental results of the several calibration method for the capacitive torque sensor showed good agreement within 3 %.

In nuclear power plants (NPPs), periodic sensor calibrations are required to assure that sensors are operating correctly. By checking the sensor's operating status at every fuel outage, faulty sensors may remain undetected for periods of up to 24 months. Moreover, typically, only a few faulty sensors are found to be calibrated. For the safe operation of NPP and the reduction of unnecessary calibration, on-line instrument calibration monitoring is needed. In this study, principal component-based auto-associative support vector regression (PCSVR) using response surface methodology (RSM) is proposed for the sensor signal validation of NPPs. This paper describes the design of a PCSVR-based sensor validation system for a power generation system. RSM is employed to determine the optimal values of SVR hyperparameters and is compared to the genetic algorithm (GA). The proposed PCSVR model is confirmed with the actual plant data of Kori Nuclear Power Plant Unit 3 and is compared with the Auto-Associative support vector regression (AASVR) and the auto-associative neural network (AANN) model. The auto-sensitivity of AASVR is improved by around six times by using a PCA, resulting in good detection of sensor drift. Compared to AANN, accuracy and cross-sensitivity are better while the auto-sensitivity is almost the same. Meanwhile, the proposed RSM for the optimization of the PCSVR algorithm performs even better in terms of accuracy, auto-sensitivity, and averaged maximum error, except in averaged RMS error, and this method is much more time efficient compared to the conventional GA method.

극저온시스템에서는 측정하려는 온도의 범위, 온도센서의 형상 및 정확도 등을 고려하여 온도센서를 선택하여 사용한다. 이 중 온도센서의 정확도는 실험 신뢰성의 매우 중요한 요소이다. 극저온용 온도센서의 교정을 위해서 2단 극저온냉동기를 이용하여 시스템을 개발하였다. 극저온냉동기의 1단부에 열 차폐층을 설치하고 MLI(Multiple layer insulation)을 이용하여 외부로 부터의 열 침입을 최소화 하였다. 그리고 시간과 비용의 절약을 위해 동시에 다수의 온도센서를 교정하기 위한 센서홀더를 개발하여 20개 이상의 센서를 동시에 교정할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 히터를 사용하여 온도조절을 통해 다양한 온도에서의 온도교정이 가능하도록 하였다. 본 논문에서는 온도센서 교정시스템의 설계 및 제작 그리고 대표적인 온도 교정 실험 결과를 소개한다.

본 논문에서는, 미지 위치의 원거리 능동음원을 이용하여 해저고정형 선배열 센서에 대한 3차원 배열형상추정 기법을 제안하였다. 본 연구는 센서에 도달하는 음파가 평면파라는 가정 하에 기준센서와 나머지 센서간의 음파도달 시간지연, 센서위치 및 입사각과의 선형방정식의 해를 반복적 최소자승법에 의해 구함으로서 센서위치 추정이 가능하다. 제안된 기법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실제 해상실험을 수행하였으며, 이론적 분석을 통하여 음원 위치 분포에 따른 성능 및 시간지연 오차에 따른 센서위치 추정 성능을 분석하였다.

This paper presents an averaging current adjustment technique for reducing the pixel resistance variation in a bolometer-type uncooled infrared image sensor. Each unit pixel was composed of an active pixel, a reference pixel for the averaging current adjustment technique, and a calibration circuit. The reference pixel was integrated with a polysilicon resistor using a standard complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process, and the active pixel was applied from outside of the chip. The averaging current adjustment technique was designed by using the reference pixel. The entire circuit was implemented on a chip that was composed of a reference pixel array for the averaging current adjustment technique, a calibration circuit, and readout circuits. The proposed reference pixel array for the averaging current adjustment technique, calibration circuit, and readout circuit were designed and fabricated by a $0.35-{\mu}m$ standard CMOS process.

This paper describes an algorithm that improves 3D reconstruction result using a multi-sensor fusion disparity map. We can project LRF (Laser Range Finder) 3D points onto image pixel coordinatesusing extrinsic calibration matrixes of a camera-LRF (${\Phi}$, ${\Delta}$) and a camera calibration matrix (K). The LRF disparity map can be generated by interpolating projected LRF points. In the stereo reconstruction, we can compensate invalid points caused by repeated pattern and textureless region using the LRF disparity map. The result disparity map of compensation process is the multi-sensor fusion disparity map. We can refine the multi-sensor 3D reconstruction based on stereo vision and LRF using the multi-sensor fusion disparity map. The refinement algorithm of multi-sensor based 3D reconstruction is specified in four subsections dealing with virtual LRF stereo image generation, LRF disparity map generation, multi-sensor fusion disparity map generation, and 3D reconstruction process. It has been tested by synchronized stereo image pair and LRF 3D scan data.
