We focus on a sounding signal design for single-input single-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SISO-OFDM) systems. We show that the frequency spectrum of an optimum sounding signal has a constant magnitude across the frequency band for the cases with or without Doppler effects. Simulation results show that the designed optimum sounding signal outperforms random sounding signals and that the performance of a maximal-length shift register sequence is indistinguishable from that of the optimum sounding signal.

In this paper, we propose the channel sounding scheme which improves the reliability and performance of communication link and mitigate the fading effect of channel in MTMO-OFDM system having correlation between Tx and Rx antennas. And we estimate the channel propagation characteristics of channels between the transmitter and receiver with CS scheme by measuring the channel propagation characteristics using sounding signal. Multi agent system models can be used to analyze the path of the system within any time frame. Further, using this proposed method, we can increase the channel capacity by simple calculation in receiver and transmitter and allocate the optimal power by channel information in transmitter. Also, the increment of channel capacity using the prorposed method is induced as the number of antenna is increased. So, we can anticipate the performance improvement with the presented scheme in more complicated Tx and Rx antenna system.

We develop the system realization of whale sound reconstruction by inverse MFCC algorithm with the weighted L2-norm minimization techniques. The output products from this research will contribute to the whale tourism and multimedia content industry by combining whale sound contents with the prototype of 3D printing. First of all, we develop the softwares for generating whale sounds and install them into Raspberry Pi hardware and fasten them inside a 3D printed whale. The languages used in the development of this system are the C++ for whale-sounding classification, MATLAB and Python for whale-sounding playback algorithm, and Rhino 6 for 3D printing.

The test result of the X-ray observation system is presented which have been developed at Korea Astronomy Observatory for 3 years(1995 -1997). The instrument, which is composed of detector and signal processing parts, is designed for the future observations of compact X-ray sources. The performance of the instrument was tested by mounting on the two-stage Korean Sounding Rocket, which was launched from Taean rocket flight center on June 11 at 10:00 KST 1998. Telemetry data was received from individual parts of the instrument for 32 and 55.7 sec, respectively, since the launch of the rocket. In this paper, the result of the data analysis based on the received telemetry data and discussion about the performance of the instrument is reported.

According to the ubiquitous usage of smartphone, so many smartphone applications have been developed, and especially data communications and position measurement technologies without additional equipments have been developed using acoustic signal. But there is a limitation to select the frequency of the acoustic signal due to the smartphone hardware, and there is non-linearity in the electronic circuits in a sound generation devices, the audible sound generated from the speaker is not avoidable. And it causes critical difficulty to the commercial system deployment. In this paper, a simulation technique to calculate the power of the audible acoustic signal by human is applied to several types of acoustic signals to evaluate the loudness. These could be referred when the acoustic communications or positioning systems are designed, for the purposed of inaudible sounding to human.

The King Sejong's Striking water-clock was named for its distictive day and night time announcing system. Its time announcing system generates acoustic and visual signals for the twelve double hour, and combinations of two different acoustic signals for the five night watches, The mechanism of this signal generation system is triggered by a copper ball which is mechanically digitized time keeping signal, and is generated from the water clock. The time announcing system consisted four parts: 1) the mechanical amplifier which changes small copper to heavy steel ball, 2) day time announcing system, 3) night time announcing system, 4) sounding mechanism. The time announcing system of King Seong's Striking Clepsidra is remotely related to the Arabic clock system, however, it does have world-widely distictive mechanisms of its era, such as mechanical amplifier, self-weight rachet mechanism, and resetable mechanical computer etc.

This study presents an analysis of the human body channel as an electric signal path using body impulse response (BIR). The human body communications (HBC) has recently emerged as an effective signal transmission method to create wireless body area networks (WBAN). We provide body channel characteristics based on measured BIR in a proper experimental environment for the HBC using capacitive coupling with a customized channel sounding device, which can be applied as a guideline for the HBC system design. The frequency response of the BIR, extracted by a customized signal processing for the measure signals, shows the channel path loss (CPS) between 0 MHz and 100 MHz with an average CPS of approximately 46.8 dB. In addition, the relative noise power distributions can provide estimations on the signal to noise ratio at the HBC receiver in terms of capacitor and resistor values in the measured frequency band and the frequency band lower than 3 MHz considering the baseband signal detection.

KSR-III(Korea Sounding Rocket - III), which is being developed by Space Technology R&D Division of KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) will be launched in late 2002. It is a three-stage, liquid propellant rocket which can reach 250 km altitude and will carry out observation of ozone layer and scientific experiments, such as microgravity experiment, and atmospheric measurement. KSR-III is believed to be an intermediate to the launch vehicle capable of carrying a satellite to its orbit. Space Test Department of KARI performed GVT(Ground Vibration Test) fer KSR-III EM at Rocket Test Building of KARI. GVT is very important for predicting the behavior of rocket in its operation, developing flight control program and performing aerodynamic analysis. This paper gives an introduction of rocket GVT configuration and information on test procedures, techniques and results of It. In this test. to simulate free-free condition, test object hung in the air laterally by 4 bungee cords specially devised. For the excitation of test object, pure random signal by two electromagnetic shakers was used and total 22 frequency response functions were achieved. Polyreference parameter estimation was performed to identify the modal parameters with MIMO(Multi-Input-Multi-Output) method. As the result of the test, low frequency mode shapes and modal parameters below 60Hz were identified

It is required to design the RF link with sufficiently stable signal margin to minimize bit errors and improve the quality of received data in the telemetry system modulated digitally like PCM/FM. In case of the vehicle flying at a high speed, the variation of the gain pattern between transmitting and receiving antenna and the fee space loss due to flight distance cause the fluctuation of link. In this paper, KSR(Korea Sounding Rocket)- III, the first domestic liquid rocket which was successfully launched in Nov. 2002 is introduced. The SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) variation of the telemetry signal which was measured at S-band ground station, the one which was simulated considering the flight trajectory, and the attitude variation such as roll, pitch and yaw are compared, analyzed, and agree very well. In addition, two virtual flying situations are simulated and evaluated-only one antenna is equipped in one case, and rocket is roll-free in the other.
