In order to ensure reliability the high-level automated driving such as Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) and universal robot taxi provided by autonomous driving systems, the operation with high integrity must be generated within the defined Operation Design Domain (ODD). For this, the position and posture accuracy requirements of autonomous driving systems based on the safety driving requirements for autonomous vehicles and domestic road geometry standard are necessarily demanded. This paper presents localization requirements for safe road driving of autonomous ground vehicles based on the requirements of the positioning system installed on autonomous vehicle systems, the domestic road geometry standard and the dimensions of the vehicle to be designed. Based on this, 4 Protection Levels (PLs) such as longitudinal, lateral, vertical PLs, and attitude PL are calculated. The calculated results reveal that the PLs are more strict to urban roads than highways. The defined requirements can be used as a basis for guaranteeing the minimum reliability of the designed autonomous driving system on roads.

As part of an evaluation for an in-vessel severe accident management strategy, a coolant injection into the reactor vessel under depressurization of the reactor coolant system (RCS) has been evaluated in detail using the SCDAP/RELAP5 computer code. A high-pressure sequence of a small break loss of coolant accident (SBLOCA) has been analyzed in the Optimized Power Reactor (OPR) 1000. The SCDAP/RELAP5 results have shown that safety injection timing and capacity with RCS depressurization timing and capacity are very effective on the reactor vessel failure during a severe accident. Only one train operation of the high pressure safety injection (HPSI) for 30,000 seconds with RCS depressurization prevents failure of the reactor vessel. In this case, the operation of only the low pressure safety injection (LPSI) without a HPSI does not prevent failure of the reactor vessel.

In this paper, results of a jammer detection and localization system operation are given. The system consists of receiver stations, a central tracking station, and a monitoring station and it was developed by our institute in 2014. Through real-time tests, it is confirmed that the developed system has an ability to estimate the location of interference sources with an accuracy of 50 m (CEP) even they was 10 km away. After verification, this system was installed in Incheon International Airport and operating results are being monitored by the airport and our institute continuously. In this year, there were some events that jamming signals were received from North Korea, so the data were analyzed and given here.

CANDU spent fuel is to be disposed of at repository finally rather than recycled because of its low fissile nuclide concentration. But the difficult situation of finding a repository site can not help introducing a interim storage in the short term. It is required to find an optimum timing of geological disposal of CANDU spent fuels related to the interim storage operation period. The major factors for determining the disposal starting time are considered as safety, economics, and public acceptance. Safety factor is compared in terms of the decay heat and non-proliferation. Economics factor is compared from the point of the operation cost, and public acceptance factor is reviewed from the point of retrievability and inter-generation ethics. This paper recommended the best solution for the disposal starting time by analyzing the above factors. It is concluded that the optimum timing for the CANDU spent fuel disposal is around 2041 and that the sooner disposal time, the better from the point of technical and safety aspects.

In this study, we experiment by making and designing of compression ignition diesel engine witch has air cooling, 2-cylinder and 2-strokes. Also, we make controller witch can control injection timing and period by arbitrary manual operation for change of injection timing. We also study experimentally in change about pressure and power of combustion chamber by increasing density of air which comes into cylinder because of increasing scavenging pressure. Through this, we confirmed that output change and scavenging pressure can develop performance of the engine by scavenging efficiency of a chamber and development of volume efficiency.

Adaptive valve timing control is one of the promising techniques to accomplish the optimized mixture formation and combustion depending on the load and speed, which is needed to meet the future challenges in reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. The behavior and the effect of adaptive valve timing control system has been investigated by computer simulation, which simulates the gas dynamics in engines. Improved fuel economy can be achieved by reduction of pumping loss under low and mid load conditions. EIVC(Early Intake Valve Closing) strategy turns out to be superior to LIVC(Late Intake Valve Closing) strategy in reducing fuel consumption. Deterioration of combustion quality can be overcome by introducing LIVO(Late Intake Valve Opening) strategy, which increases turbulent intensity in cylinders. Furthermore, LIVO can reduce HC emission by decreasing the required amount of fuel to be injected during cold start.

This paper presents the $3^{rd}$ 4bit sigma delta modulator with the block and timing diagrams of DWA(Data Weighted Averaging) to optimize a operating time. In the modulator, the proposed DWA structure has a stable operation and timing margin so as to remove three latches and another clock. Because the modulator with proposed DWA structure improve timing margin about 23%. It can increase sampling frequency up to 244MHz. Through the MATLAB modeling, the optimized coefficients are obtained to design the modulator. The fully differential SC integrators, DAC, switch, quantizer, and DWA are designed by considering the nonideal characteristics. The designed $3^{rd}$ order 4bit modulator has a power consumption of 40mW and SNR(signal to noise ratio) of 77.2dB under 1.2V supply and 64MHz sampling frequency.

The frequency accuracy and phase alignment is necessary for ensuring the quality of service (QoS) for applications such as voice, real-time video, wireless hand-off, and data over a converged access medium at the telecom network. As telecom networks evolve from circuit to packet switching, proper synchronization algorithm should be meditated for IP networks to achieve performance quality comparable to that of legacy circuit-switched networks. The Time of Packet (ToP) specified in IEEE 1588 is able to synchronize distributed clocks with an accuracy of less than one microsecond in packet networks. But, The ToP can be affected by impairments of a network such as packet delay variation. This paper proposes the efficient method to minimize the expectable delay variation when ToP synchronizes the distributed clocks. The simulation results are presented to demonstrate the improved performance case when the efficient ToP transmit algorithm is applied.

The traditional engine valve train in a combustion engine is the mechanically driven camshaft system that provides one-fixed valve timing. The variable valve timing (VVT), however, is highly required to achieve the significant improvement in fuel economy. To achieve VVT in combustion engine, the solenoid type of actuator had been developed in past years, but it requires current in all operation period, the starting is difficult and the efficiency is low. In this paper, a new linear actuator using permanent magnet (PM) is proposed and verified its feasibility by finite element (FE) analysis.

A thermal-hydraulic analysis is conducted on the loss-of-coolant-accident (LOCA) during shutdown operation of YGN Units 3/4. Based on the review of plant-specific characteristics of YGN Units 3/4 in design and operation, a set of analysis cases is determined, and predicted by the RELAP5/MOD3.2 code during LOCA in the hot-standby mode. The evaluated thermal-hydraulic phenomena are blowdown, break flow, inventory distribution, natural circulation, and core thermal response. The difference in thermal-hydraulic behavior of LOCA at shutolown condition from that of LOCA at full power is identified as depressurization rate, the delay in peak natural circulation timing and the loop seal clearing (LSC) timing. In addition, the effect of high pressure safety injection (HPSI) on plant response is also evaluated. The break spectrum analysis shows that the critical break size can be between 1% to 2% of cold leg area, and that the available operator action time for the Sl actuation and the margin in the peak clad temperature (PCT) could be reduced when considering uncertainties of the present RELAP5 calculation.
