A novel piezoelectric micropump using active check valves in place of conventional passive check valves in inlet and outlet has been proposed and investigated. It actively controls open/close motion of check valves using piezoelectric actuator for expansion/contraction of pump chamber. In this paper, bi-directional flow characteristics and load characteristics are experimentally investigated using an adequate timing control for valve closing motion with a prototype micropump fabricated with the effective size of $17{\times}8{\times}11mm^{3}$. From the experimental results, it is ascertained that optimal values of phase shift against voltage to drive pump chamber for realization of a miniaturized but powerful micropump, are $15^{\circ}$ in inlet check valve and $195^{\circ}$ in outlet. Based on the obtained results, a sheet-type active shuttle valve that has a unified valve-body for inlet and outlet check valves is proposed. A micropump with the effective size of $10{\times}10{\times}10mm^{3}$ is fabricated and basic characteristics are experimentally investigated.

This paper presents a new and robust technique for a coarse frequency offset estimation in OFDM systems. As an evaluation of the proposed algorithm, we apply it to Eureka 147 DAB system. The proposed coarse frequency offset estimation algorithm is based on the differential detection technique between adjacent subcarriers to eliminate the phase shift effects of symbol timing offset and fractional frequency offset. A coarse frequency offset is determined from the correlation output between a received interarrier differential phase reference symbol and several locally generated but frequency-shifted intercarrier differential phase reference symbols. The performance of our estimation algorithm is evaluated by means of computer simulation and is compared with those of previous proposed algorithms for DAB transmission modes I, II, III, and IV. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm generates extremely accurate estimates with low complexity irrespective of the symbol timing offset.

In this paper, various modulation techniques, including the legacy Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal modulation techniques, are introduced and the spectral characteristics and correlation characteristics of signals with various modulation techniques are analyzed based on numerical simulation. With the development of various GNSS services, the limited frequency band has become increasingly saturated, and issues of interoperability and compatibility have emerged in the new GNSS design. Since the efficient allocation of frequency resources is closely related to spectrum design, modulation techniques are one of the important signal design parameters of new signal design. Signal modulation techniques are closely related to various figure of merits (FoMs) as well as spectrum characteristic, and in some cases there is a complicated trade-off between FoMs. Thus, the FoMs associated with modulation technology should be analyzed and the best signal candidates should be chosen carefully via the trade-off analysis for FoMs. In this paper, we define the modulation technique based on Phase Shift Keying (PSK), Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) and Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) for the design of KPS signals, and the FoMs of signals in terms of spectrum and correlation function are evaluated. Signals with various modulation techniques are implemented through a numerical simulation, and the relevant FoMs are analyzed.

In this paper, we propose Time-Division-Multiplexing Tertiary Offset Carrier (TDMTOC), a novel GNSS modulation based on Tertiary Offset Carrier (TOC) modulation. The TDMTOC modulation multiplexes two three-level signals (i.e., -1, 0, and 1) while crossing over time, and is a type of TOC modulation designed specifically for signal multiplexing. The proposed modulation generates TDMTOC subcarriers of two different phases by simply combining two Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) subcarriers by addition or subtraction. TDMTOC has better correlation and spectral properties than conventional BPSK, BOC, and MBOC modulation techniques, and has good power and spectral efficiency since it can multiplex signals without power loss similar to time division multiplexing. To prove this, we introduce the multiplexing process of TDMTOC, and compare TDMTOC with Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), BOC, Composite BOC (CBOC), and Time Multiplexed BOC (TMBOC) that are currently serviced in GNSS by simulations of various aspects. Through the simulation results, we prove that TDMTOC has better correlation property than modulations currently used in GNSS, less intersystem interference due to its wide spectrum property, and robustness in multipath and noise channel environments.

Fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based parallel acquisition techniques with reduced computational complexity have been widely used for the acquisition of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) global positioning system (GPS) signals. In this paper, we propose a low computational FFT-based fine acquisition technique, for binary offset carrier (BOC) modulated BPSK signals, that depending on the subcarrier-to-code chip rate ratio (SCR) selectively utilizes the computationally efficient frequency-domain realization of the BPSK-like technique and two-dimensional compressed correlator (BOC-TDCC) technique in the first stage in order to achieve a fast coarse acquisition and accomplishes a fine acquisition in the second stage. It is analyzed and demonstrated that the proposed technique requires much smaller mean fine acquisition computation (MFAC) than the conventional FFT-based BOC acquisition techniques. The proposed technique is one of the first techniques that achieves a fast FFT-based fine acquisition of BOC signals with a slight loss of detection probability. Therefore, the proposed technique is beneficial for the receivers to make a quick position fix when there are plenty of strong (i.e., line-of-sight) GNSS satellites to be searched.

식물 플랑크톤의 인위적인 용승조건 하에서 생리적 적응 (shift-up)을 알아보기 위하여, 안정동위원소인 $^{15}N-KNO_3$를 이용하여 실험실에서 Dunaliella tertiolecta의 질산염 흡수 능력을 측정하였다. 그 결과 예상과는 달리 최대 질소비 질산염 흡수 속도 $(V_{NO3})$와 초기 질산염 농도 사이에는 유의성 있는 상관관계가 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 최대 질산염 운반 속도 $(\rho_{NO3})$와 $25\;{\mu}M$ 이하의 초기 질산염 농도 사이에는 강한 상관성이 나타났으며, 이는 배양 세포의 생리적인 상태에 의한 영향에도 기인한다. $\rho_{NO3}$의 증가는 주로 입자성 유기 질소 농도의 증가와 함께 부분적으로는 $V_{NO3}$의 증가에 기인한다. 식물 플랑크톤 개체군이 심하게 shift-down되었을 경우 질산염 흡수의 생리적 적응은 높은 초기 질산염 농도에서 주목할 만큼 저해되었다. 최대 $V_{NO3}$ 또는 $\rho_{NO3}$이 나타나는 시기는 초기 질산염 농도와 관련이 있다. 높은 초기 질산염 농도에서는 $V_{NO3}$와 $\rho_{NO3}$의 최대치가 낮은 초기 질산염 농도에서보다 $1\~2$일 정도 늦게 나타났다. 이는 Zimmerman et al. (1987)의 shift-up 모델에서의 예측과 상반되는 결과이다. Shift-up 과정은 명백히 내부적인 시간순서와 초기 질산염 농도에 의하여 조절되지만, $V_{NO3}$의 크기는 질산염 농도의 변화에 거의 영향을 받지 알았다.

본 논문에서는 Dual-Port 구조를 사용하는 Display IC용 내장형 1T-SRAM에 적합한 간단하고 효과적인 새로운 데이터라인 리던던시 회로(dataline redundancy circuit)를 제안하고 이를 0.18-um CMOS 1T-SRAM 공정을 이용하여 $320{\times}120{\times}18$-Bit Dual-port 1T-SRAM로 구현하여 검증하였다. 한 개의 인버터와 한 개의 낸드 게이트로 이루어진 시프트 로직 회로(shift logic circuit)를 이용해서 기존의 데이터라인 리던던시 회로 보다는 훨씬 간단하게 컨트롤 로직을 구현함으로써 한 개의 비트라인 페어(bit line pair)의 피치(pitch) 내에서 필요한 컨트롤 로직을 모두 구현할 수 있었다. 또한 시프트 로직 회로를 개선해서 worst case에서의 delay를 12.3ns에서 5.9ns로 52% 감소시켜서 워드라인 셋업 후에서 센스앰프 셋업까지의 시간 동안에 데이터라인 스위칭 작업을 완료할 수 있게 하여서 데이터라인 리던던시 회로의 타이밍 오버헤드(timing overhead)를 row cycle 시간에 의해 감추어지게 할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 제시된 데이터라인 리던던시 회로의 면적 오버헤드(area overhead)는 약 7.6%로 예측된다.

A Scanning Rayleigh Doppler lidar for wind profiling based on a non-polarized beam splitter cube optically contacted FPI is developed for wind measurement from high troposphere to low stratosphere in 5-35 km. Non-polarized beam splitter cube optically contacted to the FPI are used for a stable optical receiver. Zero Doppler shift correction is used to correct for laser or FPI frequency jitter and drift and the timing sequence is designed. Stability of the receiver for Doppler shift discrimination is validated by measuring the transmissions of FPI in different days and analyzed the response functions. The maximal relative wind deviation due to the stability of the optical receiver is about 4.1% and the standard deviation of wind velocity is 1.6% due to the stability. Wind measurement comparison experiments were carried out in Jiuquan ($39.741^{\circ}N$, $98.495^{\circ}E$), Gansu province of China in 2015, showing good agreement with radiosonde result data. Continuous wind field observation was performed from October 16th to November 12th and semi-continuous wind field of 19 nights are presented.

This paper proposes a new real-time 2-D convolver filter architecture wihtout using any multiplier. To meet the massive amount of computations for real-time image processing, several commercial 2-D convolver chips have many multipliers occupying large VLSI area. Te proposed architecture using only one shift-and-accumulator can reduce the chip size by more than 70% of commercial 2-D convolver filter chips and can meet the real-time image processing srequirement, i.e., the standard of CCIR601. In addition, the proposed chip can be used for not only 2-D image processing but also 1-D signal processing and has bood scalability for higher speed applications. We have simulated the architecture by using VHDL models and have performed logic synthesis. We used the samsung SOG cell library (KG60K) and verified completely function and timing simulations. The implemented filter chip consists of only 3,893 gates, operates at 125 MHz and can meet the real-time image processing requirement, that is, 720*480 pixels per frame and 30 frames per second (10.4 mpixels/second).
