This paper describes a 150-Mb/s monolithic optical receiver for plastic optical fiber link using a standard CMOS technology. The receiver integrates a photodiode using an N-well/P-substrate junction, a pre amplifier, a post amplifier, and an output driver. The size, PN-junction type, and the number of metal fingers of the photodiode are optimized to meet the link requirements. The N-well/P-substrate photodiode has a 200-${\mu}m$ by 200-${\mu}m$ optical window, 0.1-A/W responsivity, 7.6-pF junction capacitance and 113-MHz bandwidth. The monolithic receiver can successfully convert 150-Mb/s optical signal into digital data through up to 30-m plastic optical fiber link with -10.4 dBm of optical sensitivity. The receiver occupies 0.56-$mm^2$ area including electrostatic discharge protection diodes and bonding pads. To reduce unnecessary power consumption when the light is not over threshold or not modulating, a simple light detector and a signal detector are introduced. In active mode, the receiver core consumes 5.8-mA DC currents at 150-Mb/s data rate from a single 3.3 V supply, while consumes only $120{\mu}W$ in the sleep mode.

Fire-alarm systems are safety equipment that facilitate rapid evacuation and early suppression in case of fire. It is highly desirable that fire-alarm systems have low false-alarm rates and are thus reliable. Until now, researchers have attempted to improve detector performance by applying new technologies such as IoT. To this end, IoT-based fire-detection systems have been developed. However, due to scarcity of large-scale operational data, researchers have barely studied malfunctioning in fire-alarm systems or attempted to reduce false-alarm rates in these systems. In this study, we analyzed false-alarm rates of smoke/temperature detectors and unwanted fire-alarm signal patterns at K institution, where Korea's largest IoT-based fire-detection system operates. After analyzing the fire alarm occurrences at the institution for five years, we inferred that the IoT-based fire-detection system showed lower false-alarm rates compared to the automatic fire-detection equipment. We analyzed the detection pattern by dividing it into two parts: normal operation and unwanted fire alarms. When a specific signal pattern was filtered out, the false-alarm rate was reduced to 66.9% in the smoke detector and to 46.9% in the temperature detector.

In this paper, A low-power MOS monolithic peak detector is presented. Designed for monolithic and low-power characteristics, this MOS peak detector can be integrated easily on the same chip as a module of large communication systems. The simulation results of this peak detector which was composed with four NMOSs and two capacitors show the power dissipation of 0.972㎽ and the good operations for 2㎓ operating pulse frequency. Therefore, it may be used as a functional block for various signal processing systems.

A readout circuit for Dual band IR detector was proposed and designed. Designed circuit provide to detector a stable diode bias and high injection efficiency using Buffered Direct Injection (BDI) input circuit. Then, amplifier in the unit cell is operated when cell is selected in order to minimize the power consumption. We could confirm through the simulation that designed circuit integrate and output simultaneously the signal generating from the dual band IR detector.

This paper describesl the point-detector arrays system to processes the field of signal and noise of the turbulent atmosphere or variance and covariance circuit. By using the aboves, the maximum output of direct-detection shows a little differences between experimental datas. As a whole the experimental data datas are agreed with the joint Gaussian theoretical curves.

This paper describes the measurement of pulse positioning (input time) to calculate a time of arrival (TOA) that takes from transmitting a signal from the target of multilateration (MLAT) system to receiving the signal at the receiver. In this regard, this paper analyzes performances of simple threshold method and level adjust system (LAS) method, which is one of the adaptive threshold detector (ATD) methods, among many methods to calculate pulse positioning of signal received at the receiver. To this end, Cramer-rao lower bound (CRLB) with regard to pulse positioning, which was measured when signals transmitted from a transponder mounted at the target were received at the receiver, was induced and then deviation sizes with regard to pulse positioning, which was measured with simple threshold and LAS methods through MATLAB simulations, were compared. Next, problems occurring according to a difference in amplitude of signals inputted to each receiver are described when pulse positioning is measured at multiple receivers located at a different distance from the target as is the case in the MLAT system. Furthermore, LAS method to resolve the problems is explained. Lastly, this study analyzes whether a pulse positioning error occurring due to the signal noise satisfies the requirement (6 nsec. or lower) recommended for the MLAT system when using these two methods.

Infrared seekers using reticles with a single detector have been widely used due to small size and low cost. However, the analysis of the error signals and the performance in multiple targets are performed either simplistically or not at all. In this paper, we present detector signals and processing results using image and signal processing techniques, especially performance analysis in multiple targets. The simulation results are essential to make the advanced signal processing part of retical seekers which can deal with various engagement scenarios.

In this paper, the electric properties of amophous selenium multilayer samples has been investigated. In order to develop the hybrid flat-panel digital· X-ray image detector, we measured and analyzed their performance parameters such as the X -ray sensitivity and dark-current for a amophous selenium multilayers X-ray detector with a phosphor layer, The hybrid digital X-ray image detector can be constructed by integrating a phosphor layer (or a scintillative layer) that convert X-ray to a light on a-Se photoconduction mulilayers that convert a light to electrical signal. As results, the dielectric materials such as parylene between the phosphor layer and the top electrode may reduce the dark-current of the samples. Amorphous selenium multilayers having dielectric layer(parylene) has characteristics of low dark-current, high X-ray sensitivity. So we can acquired a enhanced signal to noise ratio. In this paper offer the method can reduce the dark-current in the hybrid X-ray detector.
