  • 잡음환경에서의 음성인식 성능향상을 위하여 본 논문에서는 스펙트럼 차감법 이후에 남아 있는 잔여 잡음으로 인한 mismatch를 극복하는 수단으로 기존의 스펙트럼 차감법에서의 flooring factor를 사용하는 대신에 target 잡음레벨을 이용하여 잡음 마스킹을 적용하는 스펙트럼 차감법과 잡음 마스킹의 hybrid 방식을 사용한다. 이 방법은 낮은 SNR에서 개선되지 않는 기존의 잡음 마스킹이 가지는 약점을 극복하고 동시에 스펙트럼 차감버에서의 잔여 잡음 문제를 완화시킬 수 있었다. 특히 시간/주파수 영역 smoothing을 적용함으로써 스펙트럼 차감법과 잡음 마스킹의 hybrid 방식의 적용 이후에도 여전히 남아 있는 일부 잡음을 추가적으로 감소시켰으며, 더욱 향상된 인식성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

  • 필터와 검출기로 구성된 필터식 색채계의 분광감응도는 국제조명위원회(Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage, CIE)에서 정의한 등색함수와 일치해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 정확도가 높은 색채계에 적용할 수 있는 등색함수 $\bar{x},\;\bar{y}\;\bar{z}$에 대한 필터를 상용화된 색필터를 조합하여 제작할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 특히 등색함수 $\bar{x}$는 두 개의 투과대역을 가지고 있기 때문에 파장 영역이 다른 2 개의 필터로 분리하여 실현하였다. 설계에는 색필터의 두께를 곡선 맞춤변수로 두고 비선형 최소제곱법으로 필터의 품질지수 $f{_1}'$ 값을 최적화하는 프로그램을 개발하여 사용하였다. 그 결과 모든 필터의 $f{_1}'$ 값이 3 % 이하가 되도록 설계할 수 있었으며, $\bar{y}$ 등색함수 필터를 실제로 제작하여 $f{_1}'$ 측정값이 2.8 %임을 검증하였다. 또한 설계한 등색함수 필터로 색채계를 제작하여 LCD 평판 디스플레이의 색채 측정에 사용할 경우 발생하는 계통오차도 산출하였다.

  • In this paper, we analyze the Transition of Isc by natural solar spectrum of c-Si and a-Si PV module. Commonly, performance of photovoltaic (PV) module is estimated under the standard test condition (STC). That is, solar irradiance $1kW/m^2$, solar spectrum distribution: AM1 5G, module temperature $25^{\circ}C$ This means it rarely meets actual outdoor conditions. The solar spectrum always changes. So it is rare to fit the standard solar spectrum AM1 5G defined in ASTM G173-03 or IEC 60904-3. Thus spectral response of PV module is different depending on the material. so we estimated the variation of Isc at every minutes by comparing c-Si PV module with a-si PV module for outdoor conditions.

  • Interface recombination velocity in $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ As-GaAs and $Al_{0.85}$, G $a_{0.15}$ As-GaA $s_{1-y}$S $b_{y}$ heterojunction systems is studied as a function of lattice mismatch. The results are applied to the design of highly efficient III-V heterojunction solar cells. A horizontal liquid-phase epitaxial growth system was used to prepare p-p-p and p-p-n $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ As-GaA $s_{1-y}$S $b_{y}$-A $l_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ As double heterojunction test samples with specified values of x and y. Samples were grown at each composition, with different GaAs and GaAs Sb layer thicknesses. A method was developed to obtain the lattice mismatch and lattice constants in mixed single crystals grown on (100) and (111)B oriented GaAs substrates. In the AlGaAs system, elastic lattice deformation with effective Poisson ratios .mu.$_{eff}$ (100=0.312 and .mu.$_{eff}$ (111B) =0.190 was observed. The lattice constant $a_{0}$ (A $l_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ As)=5.6532+0.0084x.angs. was obtained at 300K which is in good Agreement with Vegard's law. In the GaAsSb system, although elastic lattice deformation was observed in (111) B-oriented crystals, misfit dislocations reduced the Poisson ratio to zero in (100)-oriented samples. When $a_{0}$ (GaSb)=6.0959 .angs. was assumed at 300K, both (100) and (111)B oriented GaAsSb layers deviated only slightly from Vegard's law. Both (100) and (111)B zero-mismatch $Al_{0.85}$ G $a_{0.15}$As-GaA $s_{1-y}$S $b_{y}$ layers were grown from melts with a weight ratio of $W_{sb}$ / $W_{Ga}$ =0.13 and a growth temperature of 840 to 820 .deg.C. The corresponding Sb compositions were y=0.015 and 0.024 on (100) and (111)B orientations, respectively. This occurs because of a fortuitous in the Sb distribution coefficient with orientation. Interface recombination velocity was estimated from the dependence of the effective minority carrier lifetime on double-heterojunction spacing, using either optical phase-shift or electroluminescence timedecay techniques. The recombination velocity at a (100) interface was reduced from (2 to 3)*10$^{4}$ for y=0 to (6 to 7)*10$^{3}$ cm/sec for lattice-matched $Al_{0.85}$G $a_{0.15}$As-GaA $s_{0.985}$S $b_{0.015}$ Although this reduction is slightly less than that expected from the exponential relationship between interface recombination velocity and lattice mismatch as found in the AlGaAs-GaAs system, solar cells constructed from such a combination of materials should have an excellent spectral response to photons with energies over the full range from 1.4 to 2.6 eV. Similar measurements on a (111) B oriented lattice-matched heterojunction produced some-what larger interface recombination velocities.ities.ities.s.

  • This paper investigates the damage identification of the concrete pile element through axial wave propagation technique using computational and experimental studies. Now-a-days, concrete pile foundations are often common in all engineering structures and their safety is significant for preventing the failure. Damage detection and estimation in a sub-structure is challenging as the visual picture of the sub-structure and its condition is not well known and the state of the structure or foundation can be inferred only through its static and dynamic response. The concept of wave propagation involves dynamic impedance and whenever a wave encounters a changing impedance (due to loss of stiffness), a reflecting wave is generated with the total strain energy forked as reflected as well as refracted portions. Among many frequency domain methods, the Spectral Finite Element method (SFEM) has been found suitable for analysis of wave propagation in real engineering structures as the formulation is based on dynamic equilibrium under harmonic steady state excitation. The feasibility of the axial wave propagation technique is studied through numerical simulations using Elementary rod theory and higher order Love rod theory under SFEM and ABAQUS dynamic explicit analysis with experimental validation exercise. Towards simulating the damage scenario in a pile element, dis-continuity (impedance mismatch) is induced by varying its cross-sectional area along its length. Both experimental and computational investigations are performed under pulse-echo and pitch-catch configuration methods. Analytical and experimental results are in good agreement.

  • Multi-Spectral Camera(MSC) on the KOMPSAT-2 satellite was developed and launched as a main payload to provide 1m of GSD(Ground Sampling Distance) for one(1) channel panchromatic imaging and 4m of GSD for four(4) channel multi-spectral imaging at 685km altitude covering l5km of swath width. Since the compression on MSC image chain was required to overcome the mismatch between input data rate and output date rate JPEG-like method was selected and analyzed to check the influence on the performance. In normal operation the MSC data is being acquired and transmitted with lossy compression ratio to cover whole image channel and full swath width in real-time. In the other hand the MSC performance have carefully been handled to avoid or minimize any degradation so that it was analyzed and restored in KGS(KOMPSAT Ground Station) during LEOP(Launch and Early Operation Phase). While KOMPSAT-2 had been developed, new compression method based upon wavelet for space application was introduced and available for next satellite. The study on improvement of image chain including new compression method is asked for next KOMPSAT which requires better GSD and larger swath width In this paper, satellite image chain which consists of on-board image chain and on-ground image chain including general MSC description is briefly described. The performance influences on the image chain between two on-board compression methods which are or will be used for KOMPSAT are analyzed. The differences on performance between two methods are compared and the better solution for the performance improvement of image chain on KOMPSAT is suggested.

  • This paper investigated the practical use for measuring the structural intensity (power flow per width of cross section) in a uniform semi-infinite beam in flexural vibration. The structural intensity is obtained as a vector at a measurement point, One-dimensional structural intensity can be obtained from 4-point cross spectral measurement, or 2-point measurement on the assumption of far field. The measurement errors due to finite difference approximation and phase mismatch of accelerometers are examined. For precise measurements, it would be better to make the value of k$\delta$(wave number x space between accelerometers) between 0.5 and 1.0. Formulation of the relation between bending waves in structures and structural intensity makes it possible to separate the wave components by which one can get a state of the vibration field. Experimental results are obtained from 2- and 4-point measurement performed at 200mm (near field) and 400mm (far field) apart from excitation point in random excitation. the results are compared with the theoretical values and measured values of input power spectrum in order to verify the accuracy of structural intensity method, 2-point method is suggested as the practical structural intensity method.

  • The global demand for energy has been increasing since past decades. Various technologies have been working to find a suitable alternative for the generation of sustainable energy. Photovoltaic technologies for solar energy conversion represent one of the significant routes for the green and renewable energy production. Despite of remarkable improvement in solar cell technologies, the generation of power is still suffering with lower energy conversion efficiency, high production cost, etc. The major problem in improving the PV efficiency is spectral mismatch between the incident solar spectrum and bandgap of a semiconductor material used in solar cell. Luminescent materials such as rare-earth doped phosphor materials having the quantum efficiency higher than unity can be helpful for photovoltaic applications. Quantum cutting phosphors are the most suitable candidates for the generation of two or more low-energy photons for the absorption of every incident high-energy photons. The phosphors which are capable of converting UV photon to visible and near-IR (NIR) photon are studied primarily for photovoltaic applications. In this review, we will survey various near IR quantum cutting phosphors with respective to their synthesis method, energy transfer mechanism, nature of activator, sensitizer and dopant materials incorporation and energy conversion efficiency considering their applications in photovoltaics.

  • Type-II 반도체 나노 구조는 그것의 band alignment 특성으로 인해 광학 소자에 다양한 응용성을 가진다. 특히, 대표적인 Type-II 반도체 나노 구조인 InSb/InAs 양자점의 경우, 약 3~5 ${\mu}m$의 mid-infrared 영역의 spectral range를 가지므로, 장파장을 요하는 소자에 유용하게 적용될 수 있다. 또한, Type-II 반도체 나노 구조의 밴드 구조를 staggered gap 혹은 broken gap 구조로 조절함으로써 infrared 영역 광소자의 전자 구조를 유용하게 바꾸어 적용할 수 있다. 최근, GaSb wafer 위에 InSb/InAsSb 양자점을 이용하여 cutoff wavelength를 6 ${\mu}m$까지 연장한 IR photodetector의 연구도 보고되고 있다. 하지만, GaSb wafer의 경우 그것의 비용 문제로 인해 산업적 적용이 쉽지 않다는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 GaAs wafer와 같은 비용 효율이 높은 wafer를 사용한 연구가 필요할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 Molecular Beam Epitaxy(MBE)를 이용하여 undoped InAs wafer 와 semi-insulating GaAs wafer 상에 InSb 양자 구조를 형성한 결과를 보고한다. InSb 양자 구조는 20층 이상의 다층으로 형성되었고, 두 가지 경우 모두 400${\AA}$ spacer를 사용하였다. 단, InAs wafer 위에 형성한 InSb 양자 구조의 경우 InAs spacer를, GaAs wafer 위에 형성한 양자 구조의 경우 InAsSb spacer를 사용하였다. GaAs wafer 위에 양자 구조를 형성한 경우, InSb 물질과의 큰 lattice mismatch 차이 완화 뿐 아니라, type-II 밴드 구조 형성을 위해 1 ${\mu}m$ AlSb 층과 1 ${\mu}m$ InAsSb 층을 GaAs wafer 위에 미리 형성해 주었다. 양자 구조 형성 방법도 두 종류 wafer 상에서 다르게 적용되었다. InAs wafer 상에는 주로 일반적인 S-K 형성 방식이 적용된 것에 반해, GaAs wafer 상에는 migration enhanced 방식에 의해 양자 구조가 형성되었다. 이처럼 각 웨이퍼에 대해 다른 성장 방식이 적용된 이유는 InAsSb matrix와 InSb 물질 간의 lattice mismatch 차이가 6%를 넘지 못하여 InAs matrix에 비해 원하는 양자 구조 형성이 쉽지 않기 때문이다. 두 가지 경우에 대해 AFM과 TEM 측정으로 그 구조적 특성이 관찰되었다. 또한 infrared 영역의 소자 적용 가능성을 보기 위해 광학적 특성 측정이 요구된다.

  • 본 논문에서는 여러 개의 마이크를 이용하여 잡음을 제거하는 방법인 공간 필터로 전처리된 신호를 입력으로 하는 음성 왜곡 가중 다채널 위너 필터 (Spatially Preprocessed Speech Distortion Weighted Multi-channel Wiener Filter: SP-SDW-MWF)에 대해 소개하고, 가중치를 결정하는 방법을 제안한다. SP-SDW-MWF는 마이크로폰 어레이를 이용한 잡음 제거 알고리즘으로서 마이크로폰 불일치와 같은 오차에 강인한 것으로 알려져 있다. SP-SDW-MWF는 필터 계수를 최적화할 때 음성 왜곡과 잡음 제거에 대한 기준으로 나누어 가중치를 두고 있다. 이러한 가중치를 결정하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 전력 스펙트럼 밀도 오차를 평가 척도로 사용하여 마이크로폰으로부터 입력된 음성 신호와 잡음의 전력 스펙트럼 밀도의 비 (a priori SNR)를 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험결과에서 나타난 바와 같이 a priori SNR에 따라 가변적인 가중치를 사용하는 것이 고정된 값을 가중치로 사용하는 것보다 향상된 성능을 보임을 알 수 있다.
