  • This paper is aimed at developing an location tracking system of mobile station based on currently available mobile communication network or mobile Phone and PCS(Personal Communication System). When the location tracking of mobile stations is in services, Emergency-119, all of crime investigation, effective urban traffic management and the safety protection of Alzheimer's patients can be available. In order to track the location of the mobile and base station, assumption in this paper is to use the statistic characteristics of LOS when modeling the standard noise in case that radio path is LNOS environment. The standard variation of the standard noise is $\pm150$. First, location is estimated by the positioning algorithms of TOA and TDOA and compared each other. Second, after canceling the standard noise by Kalman filter, location is estimated by the above two positioning algorithms. Finally, the location by the Kalman filter and two positioning algorithms is estimated by smoothing method. As a result, 2 dimensional average location error is imvoved by 51.2m in TOA and 34.8m in TDOA when Kalman filer and two positioning algorithms are used, compared with the two positioning algorithm used. And there is 3 more meter improvement after smoothing than Kalman filer and two positioning algorithms used.

  • Quantitative analytical conditions for chromium using solvent extraction followed by atomic absorption spectrometry was studied. Trioctylamine(TOA) in tertiary amine or Trioctylmethylammoniumchloride(TOMAC) in quaternary ammonium salt, both containing octyl group was used as an anion exchangers. Absorbance were measured for the different kinds of acid added and as changing the concentration of acid by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer. The maximum absorbance was obtained at the concentrations of HCl, 0.1M to 0.3M for TOA and 0.03M to 0.1M for TOMAC. Mole ratios over 1:1 of TOA or TOMAC dissolved in MIBK solution to chromium in sample shows optimum extraction efficiency while HCl was added to the MIBK. As a result of scrutinizing the extraction process, the methods employed in this experiment turned out to be better extraction efficiency for chromium, compared to similar extraction methods.

  • The main objective of this study is systemization of the technique of ROC quantification and optimization of baseline design by applying CE principle to the acquisition process of a weapon system. QFD and TOA techniques can be employed to a good working example of the conceptual design of a future main battle tank. In this paper, Product Planning Phase, the first phase of four QFD phases, is deployed in terms of eight steps including customer requirements and final product control characteristics. TOA is carried out considering only combat weight. In order to perform combat weight analysis and performance TOA, Preliminary Configuration Synthesis Methodology is used. Preliminary Configuration Synthesis Methodology employs the method of least squares and described linear equations of weight interrelation equation for each component of tank. As a result of QFD based upon the ROC, it was cleared that armor piercing power, main armament, type of ammunition, cruising range, combat weight, armor protection, power loading, threat detection and cost are primary factors influencing design and that combat weight is the most dominant one. The results of TOA based on the combat weight constraint show that 5100 lb reduction was required to satisfy the ROC. The baseline design of a future main battle tank is illustrated with assumption that all phases of QFD are employed to development and production process of subsystems, components, and parts of main battle tank. TOA is applied in iterative process between initial baseline design and ROC. The detailed design of each component is illustrated for a future main battle tank.

  • Solution polymerization behaviors of L-lactide using single and mixed aluminium catalyst systems were studied. Triisobutylaluminium (TIBA) was a reference catalyst for mixing. For the $Al(O-i-Pr)_3$/TIBA catalytic systems, the molecular weight of the resulting polylactide (PLA) decreased as the composition of $Al(O-i-Pr)_3$ increased. The higher molecular weight shoulder was revealed in their GPC curve. At TIBA of 80 mol% a bimodal GPC curve was shown. The conversion in the trimethylaluminium (TMA)/TIBA catalysts system decreased as the composition of TMA in the mixed catalyst increased. The conversion in the trioctylaluminium (TOA)/TIBA catalysts system decreased as the composition of TOA in the mixed catalyst increased. The unimodal molecular weight distribution was observed with the TOA/TIBA catalyst systems. The Al compounds-mixed catalyst could produce a higher molecular weight shoulder in the GPC curve.

  • A vicarious calibration method was developed for the OSMI sensor calibration. Employing measured aerosol optical thickness by a sunphotometer and a sky radiometer and water leaving radiance by ship measurements as inputs, TOA (top of the atmosphere) radiance at each OSMI band was simulated in conjunction with a radiative transfer model (Rstar5b) by Nakajima and Tanaka (1988). As a case of examining the accuracy of this method, we simulated TOA radiance based on water leaving radiance measured at NASA/MOBY site and aerosol optical thickness estimated nearby at Lanai, and compared simulated results with SeaWiFS-estimated TOA radiances. The difference falls within about $\pm$5%, suggesting that OMSI sensor can be calibrated with the suggested accuracy. In order to apply this method for the OSMI sensor calibration, ground-based sun photometry and ship measurements were carried out off the east coast of Korean peninsula on May 31, 2000. Simulations of TOA radiance by using these measured data as input to the radiative transfer model show that there are substantial differences between simulated and OSMI-estimated radiances. Such a discrepancy appears to be mainly due to the cloud contamination because satellite image indicates optically thin clouds over the experimental area. Nevertheless results suggest that sensor calibration can be achieved within 5% uncertainty range if there are ground-based measurements of aerosol optical thickness, and water leaving radiances under clear-sky and optically thin atmospheric conditions.

  • In this paper, a new algorithm for the calculation of the range between an LTE base station (BS) and a user equipment (UE) using time-of-arrival (TOA) measurements of LTE signals is proposed. First, the cell identity (cell ID) of the received signal is acquired using the primary synchronization signal (PSS) and secondary synchronization signal (SSS) to identify the BS transmitted the signal. The proposed algorithm exploits the cell-specific reference signal (CRS), the reference sequence inserted in commercial LTE signals, to estimate the time delay using 2D cross-correlation. The obtained TOA estimations can be used to calculate the range employed from the known BS location. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated with the experiment performed using real LTE signals transmitted from the commercial BS.

  • In this study we measured a differential ASF to improve the accuracy of time synchronization with the signal transmitted from Pohang 9930M Loran station. We obtained the differential ASF which is calculated from a difference of the TOA measurements between KRISS and Chungnam National University(CNU), and KRISS and National Maritime PNT Office respectively. The TOA measurement at KRISS was measured by UTC(KRIS) reference clock and other sites were measured by atomic clocks respectively. The time variations of differential ASF measurements at CNU and National Maritime PNT Office were within $0.1{\mu}s$ and $0.05{\mu}s$ respectively. And we found the time variations of $0.1{\mu}s$ depending on the surrounding radio-wave environments from the differential ASF measurements of 60 minute moving averages. We can improve the accuracy of time synchronization of the local clock to within 10 ns by compensating the differential ASF through removing the common component of ASF. And we measured the absolute ASF between the Pohang transmit station and KRISS by the measurement technique of absolute time delay using a cesium atomic clock. The average ASF between two points is about $3.5{\mu}s$.
