Infrared thermography uses infrared energy radiated from any objects above absolute zero temperature, and the range of its application has been constantly broadened. As one of the active test techniques detecting radiant energy generated when energy is applied to an object, ultrasound infrared thermography is a method of detecting defects through hot spots occurring at a defect area when 15~100 kHz of ultrasound is excited to an object. This technique is effective in detecting a wide range affected by ultrasound and vibration in real time. Especially, it is really effective when a defect area is minute. Therefore, this study conducted thermography through lock-in signal processing when an actual defect exists inside the austenite STS304 seamless pipe, which simulates thermal fatigue cracks in a nuclear power plant pipe. With ultrasound excited, this study could detect defects on the rear of a pipe by using an aluminium reflector. Besides, by regulating the angle of the aluminium reflector, this study could detect both front and rear defects as a single infrared thermography image.

A Ka-band microstrip array antenna for wide-range detection of moving targets is analyzed through a photonicassisted reactive-near-field characterization technique. The antenna array employs a 3-dB-tapered feed network to suppress the sidelobe level while retaining a wide azimuth beamwidth for a wide detection range. The relative nearelectric field patterns of the array and its 3-dB-tapered feed lines have been measured using an electro-optic fieldmapping technique for minimally invasive millimeter-wave sensing. A number of typical limitations on the technique, involving bandwidth, low signal-modulation depth, and high laser-induced noise in high-frequency applications, have been overcome by suppressing the carrier portion of the optical interrogation beam.

본 논문에서는 저가형 구조에 이용 가능한 X-band 대역의 push-push형 VCO를 제안하였다. 제작된 push-push형 발진기는 부가적인 바렉터 다이오드를 사용하지 않고, 컬렉터 바이어스를 가변하여 X-band에서 넓은 주파수 가변을 얻었다. 측정 결과 컬렉터 바이어스 전압을 $4\~9V$ 가변하였을 때 $10.9\cal{GHz}\~11.8\cal{GHz}$의 $900\cal{MHz}$의 주파수 가변, $-30\;\cal{dBc}$ 이하의 우수한 $f_0$ 억압 특성, $-115\;\cal{dBc/Hz}\;@\;1\;\cal{MHz}$의 위상 잡음 특성을 가졌다.

최근 레벨계는 산업현장의 안전 및 유지관리와 연관되어 넓은 측정범위가 요구되는 추세이다. 일반적으로 레벨계의 측정범위를 확보하기 위해 측정환경을 개선하여 잡음을 감소시키거나 신호처리를 통해 신호의 왜곡을 보상하게 된다. FMCW 레이다 레벨계의 잡음과 신호의 왜곡은 레벨계의 근거리 특성에 영향을 주어 최소탐지거리가 감소되는 결과를 갖게 한다. 본 논문에서는 레벨계의 근거리 영역의 잡음을 제거하기 위해 window 함수와 비트 스펙트럼의 특성을 고려한 Equalizer 필터를 적용하여 최소탐지거리 성능을 개선하며 탐지가 상대적으로 어려운 레벨계 근거리의 측정 신뢰도를 높이고 탐지영역내의 측정 범위를 향상 시키고자 한다.

An improved method to measure the dynamic viscoelastic properties of elastomers is proposed. The method is based on the analysis of forced oscillation of a cylindrical sample loaded with inertial mass. No special equipment or instrumentation other than the ordinary vibration measurement apparatus is required. Typical measurement of the viscoelastic properties of a silicone rubber $Silastic^{(R)}$ S2 were measured over the wide frequency range from 10 Hz to 3 kHz under the action of wide region of deformation from $10^{-4}%$ to 5%. It was shown that modulus of elasticity and loss tangent fall on the single curves when the ratio of load mass to sample mass changed from 1 to 20.

In this study, a read-out integrated circuit (ROIC) that can be applied to a colorimetry-based optical sensor for analyzing total phosphorus and total nitrogen was developed and characterized. The proposed ROIC minimizes the effect on temperature fluctuation, improves sensitivity, and extends the dynamic range by utilizing a dual optical path and feedback control circuit. Using a dual optical path makes it possible to calibrate the output signal of the optical sensor automatically, along with the temperature fluctuation. The calibrated voltage is fed back into the measurement stage; thus, the output current of the measurement is adaptively controlled. As a result, the sensitivity and dynamic range of the proposed ROIC are improved. Finally, a total-phosphorus analysis was conducted by utilizing the ROIC. The ROIC was found to operate stably over a wide temperature range.

We measured the permittivity and electromagnetic wave propagation velocity of used insulation oil with wide frequency range including ultra-high frequency by time domain reflectometry. The permittivity or propagation velocity is essential for locating discharge faults of oil filled power transformer. We derived 2.21 as a permittivity and $2.03{\times}10^8 m/s$ as a velocity from the measurement of pulse travelling time along a coaxial line filled with used insulation oil or air. The permittivity measurement system we designed shows high measurement accuracy and the convenience for field use.

A three dimensional body scanner for anthropomentric measurement has been developed. In this study, the slit laser beam projection method followed by digital image processing was used to provide accurate spatial data with the typical optical triangulation method to overcome the many difficulties in traditional in accurate and time-consuming tactic measurement method using rulers and gauges. Compared with other commercialized scanners. this system can obtain a relatively wide range of data at a much lower cost by the specially designed scanning process such as the simultaneous acquisition of vertical and horizontal body cross-section profiles.

A wide-area protection intelligent technique has been used to improve a reliability in power systems and to prevent a blackout. Nowadays, voltage and current phasor estimation has been executed by GPS-based synchronized PMU, which has become an important way of wide-area blackout protection for the prevention of expending faults in power systems. As this technique has the difficulties in collecting and sharing of information, there have been used a FNET method for the wide-area intelligent protection. This technique is very useful for the prediction of the inception fault and for the prevention of fault propagation with accurate monitoring frequency and frequency deviation. It consists of FDRs and IMS. It is well known that FNET can detect the dynamic behavior of system and obtain the real-time frequency information. Therefore, FDRs must adopt a optimal frequency estimation method that is robust to noise and fault. In this paper, we present comparative studies for the frequency estimation method using IRDWT(improved recursive discrete wavelet transform), for the frequency estimation method using FRDWT(fast recursive discrete wavelet transform). we used the Republic of Korea 345kV power system modeling data by EMTP-RV. The user-defined arbitrary waveforms were used in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed two kinds of RDWT. Also, the frequency variation data in various range, both large range and small range, were used for simulation. The simulation results showed that the proposed frequency estimation technique using FRDWT can be the optimal frequency measurement method applied to FDRs.
