In this paper, it is studied a novel SAW oscillator by applicating SAW delay characteristics, which can be variable its frequencies by consiting of two output IDT(Inter-Digital Transducer) without external filtering and resonating circuits. The results of experiments showed the temperature characteristics of AT-cut quartz which has been used as frequency-determing substrate of SAW oscillator was good. Though the variable frequencies range was narrow but the experiments showed the possibility to broaden its frequencies range by design of SAW device, and also confromed the stability of fundamental wave oscillating in high frequency range.

In this paper, we propose a variable step search fast motion estimation algorithm using local statistics of neighboring motion vectors. Using the degree of correlation between neighboring motion vectors, motion search range is adaptively adjusted to reduce unnecessary search points. Based on the adjusted search range, motion vector is obtained by variable search step. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has the capability to dramatically reduce the search points and computing cost for motion estimation, comparing to fast full spiral search motion estimation and other fast motion estimation.

In this paper, a new variable active inductor using a conventional grounded active inductor with feedback variable LC-resonator is proposed. The grounded active inductor is realized by the gyrator-C topology and the variable LC-resonator is realized by the low-Q spiral inductor and varactor. This variable LC-resonator can compensate the degradation of Q-factor due to parasitic capacitance of a transistor, and the frequency range with high Q-factor is adjustable by resonance frequency adjustment of LC-resonator. The fabricated variable active inductor with Magnachip $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process shows that high-Q frequency range can be adjusted according to varactor control voltage from 4.66 GHz to 5.45 GHz and Q-factor is higher than 50 in the operating frequency ranges. The measured inductance at 4.9GHz can be controlled from 4.12 nH to 5.97 nH by control voltage.

In speech signal processing, it is necessary to detect exactly the pitch. The algorithms of pitch extraction which have been proposed until now are difficult to detect pitches over wide range speech signals. Thus we propose a new algorithm which uses the G-peak extraction to do it. It is the method that finds the most MZI(maximum zero-crossing interval) at each frame and convolve it with speech signal ; this is the same with passing speech signals to variable LPF. Finally we obtained the pitch, improve the accuracy of pitch detection and extract it with the high speed.

The design method of signal delay line system using indirect frequency synthesizer is presented. The variable signal delay line system with 2[nsec] step of delay time at center frequency 60[MHz], bandwidth 500[KHz] and range 5.24-5.81[x10S0-6Tsec] is designed and fabricated. The results were met with good characteristics to be variable delay time of average 2.01[nsec] per step.

Heavy ion and proton therapy necessitate range weeks, which are time consuming. Three types of variable compensator, membrane type liquid variable compensator, are proposed by some of the authors to overcome the difficulties, by those arbitrarily thickness distribution of compensator obtained from treatment planning is created at the site of treatment. None of the ideas, however, is yet realized. In this research, we are trying to construct prototype membrane-type liquid variable compensator. This variable compensator partitions air and liquid with elasticity membrane and changes the surface of the elasticity membrane with the thread. The air and oil move through holes to and from the out of beam side of two boxes in which they are contained. The boxes are made of Plexiglas(PMMA), the thread which is made of nylon, the elasticity film which is made from latex for the moment.

This paper presents a neural network based variable structure control scheme for nonlinear systems. In this scheme, a set of local variable structure control laws are designed on the basis of the linear models about preselected representative points which cover the range of the system operation of interest. From the combination of the set of local variable structure control laws, neural networks infer the approximate control input in between the operating points. The neural network based variable structure control alleviates the effects of model uncertainties, which cannot be compensated by the control techniques using feedback linearization. It also relaxes the discontinuity in the system’s behavior that appears when the control schemes based on the family of the linear models are applied to nonlinear systems. Simulation results of a ball and beam system, to which feedback linearization cannot be applied, demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

For the measurement of mass flow rate at a wide range of operation conditions, it is required that the critical nozzle gas different diameters, since the mass flow rate through the critical nozzle depends on the nozzle supply conditions and the nozzle throat diameter. In the present study, both computational and experimental investigations are performed to explore the variable critical nozzle. Computational work using the 2-dimensional, axisymmetric, compressible Navier-Stokes equations are carried out to simulate the gas flow through variable critical nozzle. In experimnet, a cylinder with several different diameters is inserted into the critical nozzle to vary the nozzle throat diameter. Computational results are compared with the experimented ones. The computed results are in close agreement with experiment. It is found that the displacement and momentum thickness of variable critical nozzle are given as a function of Reynolds numbers. The discharge coefficient of the variable critical nozzle is predicted using an empirical equation.

This paper deals with extending the variable natural oscillation frequency range of an active integrated FET oscillator. In this paper, we conform experimentally that the variable range of the natural oscillation frequency is expanded about three times in the oscillator controlled by the varactor diode. When the frequency difference is given to the oscillators in the two element antenna system, phase difference appeared between the oscillators. The 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-element patch antenna arrays are composed for the beam scanning experiments. All the above patch antennas show good phased array characteristics. The range of the scanning angle is about $30^{\circ}$, and the radiation power is gradually increased from $50{\mu}W\;to\;200{\mu}W$. The radiation patterns we sharpened as the number of elements is increased.

Human uses sight, tactile sense to evaluate Total Hand Value(FUUAI) of textile fabrics. Tactile sense is important factor which decided the Total Hand Value of a textile fabric. When human feels the FUUAI, physical and physiological phenomena are occurred in finger. We first found out physical variable that is happened in fingertip when human is feeling the FUUAI. Such physical variable means characteristic of action tactual motion of finger such as moving range, tactile time, moved distance, speed of finger and applied force by finger. We study the relationship between action tactual motion and the ability in which the human distinguishes the textile fabric. As a result, we could know the characteristics of the tactual motion of fingertip to get high distinguishable ability. The characteristics were different in men and women respectively. In the case of man, touched time and moving range influenced to distinguish, and moving range, and the moving speed of finger influenced, in woman's case.
