This paper presents a low noise CMOS regulator for a low power capacitive sensor interface in a $0.5{\mu}m$ CMOS standard technology. Proposed LDO regulator circuit consist of a voltage reference block, an error amplifier and a new buffer between error amplifier and pass transistor for a good output stability. Conventional source follower buffer structure is simple, but has a narrow output swing and a low S/N ratio. In this paper, we use a 2-stage wide band OTA instead of source follower structure for a buffer. From SPICE simulation results, we got 0.8 % line regulation and 0.18 % load regulation.

본 논문에서는 고속 데이터 전송을 위한 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서 위상잡음 때문에 발생되는 ICI(Interchannel Interference)의 감쇄기법이 제안된다. 고차 변조방식으로 변조된 OFDM 시스템에서 3dB 대역폭이 넓은 위상잡음에 의하여 기존 CPE(Common Phase Error) 보상기법의 성능은 열화된다. 제안된 기법은 파일럿 부반송파와 이에 인접한 데이터 부반송파를 이용하여 유효한 ICI 계수를 추정한 후, 위상잡음에 의한 왜곡을 주파수 혹은 시간영역에서 보상한다. 또한, 효과적으로 유효한 ICI의 길이를 결정하기 위하여 위상잡음의 3dB 대역폭 추정기법이 제안된다. 제안된 위상잡음 억제 기법은 기존의 CPE 보상 방식에 비하여 비트 오류율 성능을 향상시킨다.

A transient short-hot-wire technique has been presented for simultaneous measurements of the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of fluids under the microgravity condition. Two-dimensional heat conduction equations for concentric cylinders with various radius ration and length-diameter ratio have been solved numerically by taking account of the heat capacity of the inner cylinder. A unique relation between the non-dimensional temperature of inner cylinder and Fourier number is obtained for a wide range of thermal properties of the fluids, because the relation if found to be almost independent of these properties. Then the characteristic could be utilized as a masterplot to evaluate both the thermal conductivity and diffusivity. In principle, this method is proved to have an error within 1% for both of these properties.

This paper presents two results on intersymbol interferences in baseband digital communication over an additive white Gaussian noise channel-the interferences due to mismatched square-root raised-cosine filters, in which the filters have different roll-off factors, and / or due to sampling-time jitter. The result for the mismatched filters is that even the jitter-free sampling causes intersymbol interference and it is negligibly small for a wide range of signal-to-noise ratio up to 10dB, for the roll-off factor ranging from 0.2 to 0.5, the mismatch loss being within 0.1dB from the optimum at around 10-6 .For jitter interference an approximation formula for the bit error probability is derived in case of the matched filters, which shows how the roll-off factors and the amount of jitter affect the system performance. The formula is reasonably accurate.

In this paper, performance of a hybrid direct-sequency/slow-frequency-hopped (DS/SFH) spread-spectrum (SS) system with coherent BPSK modulation is analyzed. The bit error probability is derived over a frequency=-selective rician fading channel in the presence of multiple tone jamming. The fading channel is modeled as the wide-sense stationary uncorrelated scattering (WSSUS) model. Numerical evaluations are presented for some combinations of system parameters. The performance of a hybrid DS/SFH SS system is shown to be inferior to that of a ure DS SS system at low jamming-to-signal power ratio (JSR). At high JSR, the performance of a pure DS SS system is shown to be the smae as the worst case performance of a hybrid DS/SFH SS system.

In this paper, We propose the selective detection scheme based on pulse repetition considering Bit Error Rate (BER) performance and complexity of noncoherent Ultra Wide Band (UWB) systems. To consider system complexity, the proposed scheme transmits the UWB signals by pulse repetition at the transmitter, like the conventional Pulse Repetition Coding (PRC). However, to effectively improve BER performance of the system the proposed scheme performs selective detection by estimating the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of the received pulse-repeated signal at the receiver. Hence, the proposed scheme effectively improves BER performance of the noncoherent UWB systems without increase of the system complexity, as compared to the conventional PRC algorithm.

Nowadays, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used for rehabilitation, repair and strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Also, recent advances in concrete technology have led to the production of high strength concrete, HSC. Such concrete due to its very high compression strength is less ductile; so in seismic areas, ductility is an important factor in design of HSC members (especially FRP strengthened members) under flexure. In this study, the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and multiple regression analysis are used to predict the curvature ductility factor of FRP strengthened reinforced HSC (RHSC) beams. Also, the effects of concrete strength, steel reinforcement ratio and externally reinforcement (FRP) stiffness on the complete moment-curvature behavior and the curvature ductility factor of the FRP strengthened RHSC beams are evaluated using the analytical approach. Results indicate that the predictions of ANFIS and multiple regression models for the curvature ductility factor are accurate to within -0.22% and 1.87% error for practical applications respectively. Finally, the effects of height to wide ratio (h/b) of the cross section on the proposed models are investigated.

We have determined the contents of monosaccharides in the hydrolysates of some yogurt and orange juice products by derivatizing monosaccharides with p-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (ABEE). The separation of the ABEE-derivatized monosaccharides was efficiently carried out by HPLC using a microcolumn packed with the Alltima $C_{18}$ stationary phase. The concentrations of monosaccharides were determined based on the measured peak area/height counts. ABEE derivatization of fructose and its detection have never been successfully carried out before this work. In this study, two peaks were observed in a fixed ratio for ABEE-fructose, and the ratio was maintained over a wide range of fructose concentration. In order to prove the validity of the above method, we compared the concentrations of glucose, galactose and fructose determined by ABEE derivatization and UVD (ultraviolet detector) chromatography with those determined by RID (refractive index detector) chromatography without derivatization. The determined concentrations of monosaccharides obtained from the two chromatographic methods were found close to each other within acceptable error ranges.

Not only the emission regulation of on-road vehicle engine, but also emission regulation of off-road engine have been reinforced. It is the reason of wide application of emission reduction technology for off-road engines. In this study, optimization of engine parameters (Injector hole number, Injection timing and EGR rate) for reduction of NOx and smoke emissions were conducted by using the analysis of sensitivity and S/N ratio of Taguchi method(DOE). As results, this paper shows optimum value of the parameters for NOx and smoke emission reduction. From the result of reproducibility verification, it is final that the prediction value of NOx and smoke has the error of below 10%. Consequently, the method and results of this study will be used for quantitative reference to EGR control mapping in next study.

This study proposes a novel, conditionally applied neural network technique to reduce the overall peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system while maintaining an acceptable bit error rate (BER) level. The main purpose of the proposed scheme is to adjust only those subcarriers whose peaks exceed a given threshold. In this respect, the developed C-ANN algorithm suppresses only the peaks of the targeted subcarriers by slightly shifting the locations of their corresponding frequency samples without affecting their phase orientations. In turn, this achieves a reasonable system performance by sustaining a tolerable BER. For practical reasons and to cover a wide range of application scenarios, the threshold for the subcarrier peaks was chosen to be proportional to the saturation level of the nonlinear power amplifier used to pass the generated OFDM blocks. Consequently, the optimal values of the factor controlling the peak threshold were obtained that satisfy both reasonable PAPR reduction and acceptable BER levels. Furthermore, the proposed system does not require a recovery process at the receiver, thus making the computational process less complex. The simulation results show that the proposed system model performed satisfactorily, attaining both low PAPR and BER for specific application settings using comparatively fewer computations.
