When we are collecting traffic information on CCTV images, we have to install the detect zone in the image area during pan-tilt system is on duty. An automation of detect zone with pan-tilt system is not easy because of machine error. So the fisheye lens attached camera or convex mirror camera is needed for getting wide area images. In this situation some troubles are happened, that is a decreased system speed or image distortion. This distortion is caused by occlusion of angled ray as like trembled snapshot in digital camera. In this paper, we propose two methods of de-blurring to overcome distortion, the one is image segmentation by nonlinear diffusion equation and the other is deformation for some segmented area. As the results of doing de-blurring methods, the de-blurring image has 15 decibel increased PSNR and the detection rate of collecting traffic information is more than 5% increasing than in distorted images.

This paper is about a short survey on the recent research activities regarding health monitoring and management for liquid rocket engines. For this, we investigate the precedent techniques developed in advanced space-industry countries which are USA, EU, Russia, Japan and China. Particularly, we focus on the technologies applied in China, a recently joined to the advanced space-industry countries in this field. Then we discuss some important points to be considered to apply to the development of the Korea Space Launch Vehicle KSLV-II and other related projects.

The high intercept probability depends on optimization of the system, which consists of target detection, tracking system, missile system and so on. To reduce the complexity of global optimization of the system performance, simplification of the relative dependances of each sub-system is done and design parameters for DACS configuration are identified. The conceptual design process is addressed based on the requirement of the design parameters and new methodology is suggested for higher performance.

In recent years, research has been actively carried out to recognize and recognize objects based on a large amount of data. In this paper, we propose a system that extracts objects that are thought to be obstacles in road driving images and recognizes them by car, man, and motorcycle. The objects were extracted using Optical Flow in consideration of the direction and size of the moving objects. The extracted objects were recognized using Alexnet, one of CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) recognition models. For the experiment, various images on the road were collected and experimented with black box. The result of the experiment showed that the object extraction accuracy was 92% and the object recognition accuracy was 96%.

The TMS(Thermal Management System) heater in a fuel cell vehicle has been developed to prevent a decline of fuel cell durability and cold start durability. Main functions of the COD(Cathode Oxygen Depletion) heater are depletion of oxygen in a cathode as heat energy and consumption of electric power for rapid warming up of a fuel cell stack. This paper covers subjects including the design specification of a heater, heater controller for detection of overheat and reliability assessment including coolant pressure cycle test of a heater. To verify the design concept, burst pressure and deformation analysis of plastic housing were carried out. Also, temperature distribution analysis of heater surface and coolant inside of housing were carried out to verify the design concept. By designing the plastic housing instead of a steel housing, the 30% weight lightening and 50% cost reduction were attained. A module-based design of a TMS system including a heater or reducing the watt density of a heater is a problem to be solved in the near future work.

This study is proposed traffic signal operating system to find existing problems of loop system and complex with doplar system, which have strong linearity, resistence of weather effects and wide range to improve delay problems that used in vehicle detection method. This proposed method have simulated on Southern-Gwangju station to Enter of SeoChang take about 10km by using VISSIM tool and we found this proposed method is 15% through(또는 to) 30% more effective than continuous progress interlocking system or crossing progress interlocking system.

When doing maintenance works at the trackside of railway, the method which delivers information on approaching of train to maintenance workers through alarm devices such as the flag or indication light, etc., is being used by locating persons in charge of safety alarm in addition to the maintenance workers at fixed distances in the front and rear of the workplace. Workers maintaining at the trackside may collide with the train since they cannot recognize the approach of train although it approaches to the vicinity of maintenance workplace because of the sensory block phenomenon occurred due to their long hours of continued monotonous maintenance work. The clash or rear-end collision accidents between many maintenance trains called motor-cars can be occurred since there are cases where the signal systems for safe operation of motor-car such as track circuit etc. are blocked or not operated normally. We developed the new safety equipment for protection of trackside maintenance workers using radio frequency signals and bidirectional detection mechanism. The developed safety equipment must analyze the several operational mechanism for each different operation situations. In this paper the analysis results are represented.

Nowadays, most major automobile manufacturers are very interested, and actively involved, in developing driver alcohol detection system for safety (DADSS) that serves to prevent driving under the influence. DADSS measures the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) from the driver's breath and limits the ignition of the engine of the vehicle if the BAC exceeds the reference value. In this study, to optimize the sensor array of the DADSS, we selected sensors by using three different methods, configured the sensor arrays, and then compared their performance. The Wilks' lambda, stepwise elimination and filter method (using a principal component) were used as the sensor selection methods [2,3]. We compared the performance of the arrays, by using the selectivity and sensitivity as criteria, and Sammon mapping for the analysis of the cluster type of each gas. The sensor array configured by using the stepwise elimination method exhibited the highest sensitivity and selectivity and yielded the best visual result after Sammon mapping.

Recently, as Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and self-driving system become influential in the ground transportation system, automotive radar systems have been actively studied among the various radar systems to implement the vehicle collision detection system and distance measurement system between vehicles. Most of the automotive radars are Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar type which can calculate distance and velocity of target by estimating the frequency difference between the transmitted signal and received signal. Therefore, accurate frequency estimation is very important in the FMCW radar system. For this reason, to improve the measurement accuracy of the FMCW radar, Reverse Directional FRI (RD-FRI) Super-Resolution technique which has high frequency estimation accuracy is applied to the FMCW radar system. The feasibility of the proposed technique is evaluated with simulation results and compared with FFT and conventional Super-Resolution techniques. The simulation results show that the proposed technique estimates the frequency with high accuracy and the distance with centimeter accuracy.

도로상의 안개로 인한 시정감소는 교통사고를 유발하는 주된 원인이므로 전방의 운전자에게 도로의 시정거리를 미리 알려주어 안전운행을 유도하기 위한 안개경고시스템은 도로의 안전관리를 위해 매우 중요한 요소이다. 우리는 CCTV 카메라 영상에서 도로상에 통행중인 차량의 이동영역이 시정에 따라 달라진다는 점에 착안하여 이동영역을 추출하고 이를 이용하여 가시거리를 계산하는 시정 측정 장치를 개발하고 있으며, 주간, 야간 등 날씨의 변화에 덜 민감하면서도 효과적이고 정확한 이동영역의 추출은 시정측정을 위해 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 이동영역의 추출을 위해 영상대비를 이용하여 자동으로 임계치를 결정하는 방법을 제안하며, 결정된 임계치를 적용시킴으로써 프레임간의 차영상으로 부터 잡음이 효과적으로 제거될 수 있음을 보인다. 또한, 차영상을 일정시간 누적시키는 방법을 통해 효과적으로 차량의 이동영역이 추출 되는 것을 보이기 위해 실제 고속도로에서 촬영된 CCTV 영상을 이용하여 실험한 결과를 제시한다.
