본 논문에서는, 유니버셜 입력 전압에서 높은 효율을 가지는 새로운 구조의 브리지리스 부스트 PFC 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안하는 컨버터는 두 개의 인덕터와 네 개의 GaN 스위치, 두 개의 다이오드와 SPDT 릴레이를 사용하여 입력 전압에 따라 토폴로지 변환이 가능하다. 로우라인 입력전압이 인가될 경우, 제안하는 컨버터는 기존의 인터리브드 토템폴 브리지리스 PFC 컨버터로 동작하는 반면, 하이라인 입력전압이 인가될 경우, 제안하는 컨버터는 하나의 부스트 컨버터로 동작하게 된다. 따라서 제안하는 컨버터는 유니버셜 입력전압에서 높은 효율을 가지며, 고효율을 요구하는 서버용 전원장치나 유니버셜 입력을 요구하는 기타 PFC 어플리케이션에 적용될 수 있다. 제안하는 컨버터는 유니버셜 라인 입력 ($90V_{AC}{\sim}265V_{AC}$), 400V / 1.6kW 출력의 프로토타입 컨버터를 통해 동작을 검증하였다.

This paper presents a microprocessor controlled digital ballast for HID lamps, which gives intelligent features such as a precise power control, optimum ignition voltage and detection of end of life. Average current mode PFC is employed for reducing EMI and a universal input. Direct spread spectrum is done by applying 1 KHz triangular wave for removing acoustic resonance. This frequency modulation of 1 KHz gives also low EMI level and no ripple on lamp current. The microprocessor controls the voltage of DC-bus, the voltage of ignition pulses, the power of output and the bandwidth of spread spectrum. A 250W digital ballast is implemented with an efficiency of 93％ and a maximum EMI level of 55 ㏈${\mu}$V.

초기 전자악기를 만드는 사람들은 자신들이 직접 만든 터치 장치를 사운드 조절에 이용하였다. 1982년에 첫 멀티터치 시스템이 개발되었고 21세기 초까지 많은 연구와 멀티터치 시스템의 성능 향상에도 불구하고 대중화의 길은 요원해 보였다. 그러나 2007년 애플의 아이폰을 시작으로 멀티터치 인터페이스는 큰 인기를 끌게 되었고 스마트폰을 통해서 대중들이 멀티터치 인터페이스의 특징을 보다 쉽게 체험 할 수 있게 되었다. 이러한 흐름 속에서 멀티터치 인터페이스는 자연스럽게 사람들의 주목을 받으며 다양한 가능성을 보이고 있지만 관련 콘텐츠의 부재와 개발 인프라의 부족으로 인해 대중화의 길로 다가서기에는 여전히 부족한 현실이다. 본 논문에서는 현재의 멀티터치 인터페이스의 문제점을 지적하고 멀티터치 인터페이스 시장의 활성화와 멀티 터치 관련 콘텐츠 제작자를 위한 범용 멀티터치 인터랙션 시스템을 제안한다. 실험을 통해 제안한 시스템의 효율성을 입증하고 나아가 멀티터치 콘텐츠 시장이 발전할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

In remote control of telerobotics equipment, the real-time visual feedback is necessary in order to facilitate real-time control. Because of the network congestion and the associated delays, the real-time image feedback is generally difficult in the public networks like internet. If the remote user is not able to receive the image feedback within a certain time, the work performance may tend to decrease, and it makes difficulties to control of the telerobotics equipment. In this paper, we propose an improved visual feedback scheme over the internet for telerobotics system. The size of a remote site image and its quality are adjusted for efficient transmission. The constructed system has a better real-time update characteristics, and shows a potential for the real-time visual control of the telerobotics system.

This paper describes the construction of a phase shifter with low loss and small volume. To construct it, we use the two graphene layers that are separated by a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and embedded in a silicon waveguide. The refractive index of the waveguide is adjusted by applying a bias voltage to the graphene sheet to create an optical phase shift. This waveguide is a compact device that only has a radius of 5 ㎛. It has a phase shift of 6π. In addition, the extinction ratio (ER) is 11.6 dB and the insertion loss (IL) is 0.031 dB. Due to its unique characteristics, this device has great potential in silicon on-chip optical interconnection and all-optical multiple-input multiple-output processing.

Since fires in uncontrolled environments pose serious risks to society and individuals, many researchers have been investigating technologies for early detection of fires that occur in everyday life. Recently, with the development of deep learning vision technology, research on fire detection models using neural network backbones such as Transformer and Convolution Natural Network has been actively conducted. Vision-based fire detection systems can solve many problems with physical sensor-based fire detection systems. This paper proposes a fire detection method using the latest YOLOv8, which improves the existing fire detection method. The proposed method develops a system that detects sparks and smoke from input images by training the Yolov8 model using a universal fire detection dataset. We also demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method through experiments by comparing it with existing methods.

기존 위상천이 풀브리지 컨버터는 입력전압 범위가 넓을 경우, 제어변수인 듀티의 변동이 크게 되어 큰 순환전류가 존재하고, 2차측 정류단 전압스트레스가 커지는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 위상천이 방식을 적용한 3-레그 인버터 타입의 절연형 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안회로는 턴 비의 변화로 입력전압에 상관없이 항상 최대 듀티로 동작하며, 1차측 전류 및 2차측 정류단 전압스트레스를 감소시킬 수 있다. 제안 회로의 타당성을 검증하기 위해, 입력 311V_DC/622V_DC, 출력 50V 6kW급 사양의 프로토타입 컨버터를 설계·제작하였고, 그 실험 결과를 발표한다.

This study investigated the performance of the child care policies implemented by the former government and analyzes some changes in child care policies by the new government in Korea. The criteria for evaluating child care policies of both governments were based on suggestions gleaned from OECD policy review papers on Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) in 2004 and 2006. As suggested by the OECD, the input of financial investment in public sectors, universal approaches to child care, measures of quality programs, efforts for improving the work environment of child care workers and selecting effective ways of providing financial support for child care were applied in order to evaluate the child care policies in Korea. A number of policy documents and literature published by both governments from 2003-2009 were reviewed in order to evaluate and compare the former child care policies with the more recent ones. The child care policies enacted by the former Korean government were characterized as the remarkable increases in financial investment to establish a child care infrastructure for quality programs and services, and efforts to enact universal approaches to child care, policy making based on scientific data on child care. These advances were tempered by the observation that despite all these improvements, both investment and expansion in the public child care sector were far below sufficient levels. In contrast, some changes in the child care policies by the new government were criticized in terms of weakening public child care, reinforcing private child care and it's conservative financial support system.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a code conversion method between ISO/IEC 10646 and the multi-byte code set. The Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set(UCS) provides codes for more than 65,000 characters, huge increase over ASCII's code capacity of 128 characters. It is applicable to the representation, transmission, interchange, processing, storage, input and presentation of the written form of the language throughout the world. Therefore, it is so important to guide on code conversion methods to their customers during customer systems are migrated to the environment which the UCS code system is used and/or the current code systems, i.e., ASCII PC code and EBCDIC host code, are used with the UCS together. Code conversion utility including the mapping table between the UCS and IBM new host code is shown for the purpose of the explanation of code conversion algorithm and its implementation in the system. The programs are successfully executed in the real system environments and so can be delivered to the customer during its migration stage from the UCS to the current IBM code system and vice versa.

Background: Primary health care (PHC) plays a major role to ensure the basic right and equal distribution of the essential health care services. This study presents comparative analyses of PHC in Korea and Uzbekistan, discusses the existing scenario and the challenges, and provides recommendations. Methods: This study reviewed secondary data from Korea's National Statistical Information Service and the State Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan on Statistic, regulatory legislation, research reports, and policy papers by research and international institutions. We focus on comparing input and outcome health data, PHC structure, and health expenditure. Results: Overall health status of the population in Korea is better than in Uzbekistan; both countries achieved more than 95% immunization coverage. The reforms implemented in both countries provide initial health care service delivery. However, there are several challenges such as the distribution of the staff between urban and rural areas and interest of the graduates on specialization rather than working in PHC system. Conclusion: PHC plays an important role in the provision of medical services to the population, addressing both health and social problems; it is the best tool for achieving universal coverage for basic health needs of the population. The community health practitioners in Korea and nurses in Uzbekistan plays main role in universal coverage through providing essential health care services. Continuous reform of the PHC system should be directed to strengthen the capacity of the PHC staff in health promotion knowledge and activities as well as to encourage population to improve their own health.
