This study was performed to evaluate hepatoprotective effect of Daewhang-whangryunhaedok-Tang(DWT) on liver injured rats induced by $CCl_4$ and the acute oral toxicity of it in mice. The activities of serum transaminase(ALT/AST), alkaline phosphatase(ALP) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), the levels of serum total cholesterol(TC) and triglyceride(TG), change of liver enlargement, and inhibitory activities of lipid peroxidation, catalase and glutathione-S-transferase(GST) in liver microsome were determined in hepatotoxic rats induced by $CCl_4$ DWT DWT was significantly reduced the serum ALT, AST, ALP, LDH, TC and TG levels. And, the increase of lipid peroxidation, decrease of catalase and GST activities in the liver microsome of $CCl_4$-intoxicated rat were significantly improved by the treatment of DWT. Male and female mice were administered maximum dosages of 5,000 mg/kg b.w. of DWT. After single oral administration of DWT to mice, we observed them daily for 2 weeks. DWT did not induce any toxic signs in the mortalities, clinical signs, body weight changes, and gross necropsy findings of mice. Based on these results, it is concluded that DWT may have the hepatoprotective effect on $CCl_4$ induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Also, DWT may have no side effect and its $LD_{50}$ value may be over 5,000 mg/kg b.w. in mice.

The purpose of this study is to examine the ISO/DIS 11620 : 2007(library performance indicators) in terms of structures, objectives, and BSC, and to apply the selected performance indicators to the digital library services for the case of 'B' University in Korea. Standardization of library statistics and of qualify or performance measures for libraries is carried on within ISO in the frame of the TC46/SC8/WG4. While the first edition of ISO 11620 grouped the indicators as to service areas, the ISO/DIS 11620:2007 uses the structure of the balanced scorecard(BSC). For the study, 44 performance indicators are grouped into traditional, hybrid. and digital libraries according to the characteristics of them. Ten selected Performance indicators, which are classified into digital libraries, are verified for the applicability.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated High-Tc Superconducting (HTS) microstrip bandpass filters using Stepped Impedance Resonators(SIR) and studied on their characteristics. The $high-T_c$ superconducting $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ epitaxial films were deposited by Pulse Laser Deposition (PLD) system on MgO. The fabricated filters were designed so as to operate in Ku band with central frequency 17.25 GHz, bandwidth 2.896% and ripple 0.01 dB. These filters were composed of parallel coupled microstrip SIR of which impedance ratio (K) are 0.5, 1.5. In the measured response, HTS filters had showed insertion loss below -0.5 dB. For comparison with normal conducting filter, we fabricated the Au counterpart that consists of the resonators as K=1.5 in the same dimension and measured performance of the Au filter. In comparison, HTS filter designed optimally got superior response to gold conterpart.

The molding pressure is also one of the important parameters in the preparation of HTSC materials by the solid state reaction method. In the present study, changes in structural, electrical and microstructural proper-ties with the molding pressure in YiB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{70{\delta}}$ superconductors have been performed. The investigated molding pressures were 0.5*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, 1*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, 2*10$^{3}$ n/c $m^{2}$ and 4*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$. As the molding pressure increased, the anisotropy of the crystal structure decreased and the grains have been grown preferentially in a c-axis direction. Since the size of the grain becomes larger with the decrease of the porosity, denser textures are formed. The results indicated that the critical current density is improved resulting from the enhanced densification due to higher molding pressure. When the molding pressure was between 1*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$ and 2*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, while it did not affect the oxygen deficiency and Tc, the increase of the molding pressure affects remarkably on grain size and densification of the $Y_{1}$B $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$. When the molding pressure is larger than 2*10$^{3}$ N/c $m^{2}$, electrical proper-ties are independent on the molding pressure..

In this paper, we describe DSSS transceiver development robust to jamming signals as an investigation of ECCM transceiver for UAV uplink. The jamming margin is 15dB or greater with the development target of transceiver because the jamming margin is more important than the transmission rate of data and the spreading code can be changeable. The rake receiver is applied to combine multipath components and turbo code which the coding gain is 7.2dB as a FEC. In this paper, the whole structure, design method and functional test result about the designed modem are described and a conclusion is made.

In this paper, we proposed a compact arbitrary dual-band band-stop filter using CRLH transmission line. The proposed filter used CRLH transmission line as stub and it developed dual-band band-stop characteristics using non-linear phase response of CRLH transmission line. The size of proposed filter is compact. And it can control arbitrary dual stop band. In this paper, designed band-stop filter at GPS band and ISM band As result, the S(2,1) is about -30dB at GPS band and about -29dB at ISM band. The fabricated filter is very compact. Its dimension is 10mm*15mm.

This paper describes the design of a high performance microwave single pole double throw (SPDT) monolithic microwave integrated circuit switch using GaAs pHEMT process. The switch design proposes a novel coplanar waveguide (CPW) impedance transform network which results in the low insertion loss and high isolation by compensating for the FET parasitics to get the low on-resistance and low off-capacitance. The proposed switch has the measured isolation of better than 24 dB and insertion loss of less than 2.6 dB from 53 to 61 GHz. The chip is fabricated with the size of 2.2mm $\times$ 1.6 mm.

In this paper, the mobile-WiMAX (m-WiMAX) using the Smart antenna technique is implemented. Experiments are performed to compare Smart antenna system with conventional single antenna system. To implement the m-WiMAX smart antenna system there are many considerations, key issues of which are symbol time acquisition, beamforming, calibration. In the paper, symbol time acquisition, beamforming, calibration are implemented in WiMAX Smart antenna system and we verified that Smart antenna system is superior to single antenna system. The experimental results show 5.5 dB performance enhancement of implemented Smart antenna system in throughput compared with a single antenna system. The experimental result is almost same as theoretical result of 6 dB.

This paper shows variations on bandwidth for the 5-microstrip 4-port structure by cutting out part of 2nd and 4th line of 5 lines. In 2nd line case, the bandwidth to pass is decreased by 300MHz and one of two input ports operates in diplexer. Both of 2nd and 4th line cut takes each of two input ports as a diplexer. The bandwidth for 4th line case has almost same bandwidth for the unmodified structure, a bit wider than that of the 2nd line case. Especially the isolation between input and other out port in center frequency of stop band shows 41dB for port 1, 32dB for port 2.

In this paper we design MIMO antenna with high isolation between antennas by using an isolation aid for WLAN. Two dual-band PIFAs which operates IEEE 802.11n are arranged symmetrically along the central axis of antenna frame and ground plane. By inserting an isolation aid between two PIFAs the isolation is improved maximum 5dB and 7dB for 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band respectively. Total efficiency is above 60%. ECC is below 0.1.
