The constraints necessary guarantee using the comparison of these extrinsic parameters, which each Rotation matrix and Translation Vector must be equal to the either, except the X-axis Translation Vector. Thus, we can not yet calculate the 3D-range measurement in the end of camera calibration. To minimize this disadvantage, the Epipolar Rectification has been proposed in the literature. This paper aims to present the development of Epipolar Rectification to calibrate Stereo cameras. The required computation of the transformation mapping between points in 3D-space is based on calculating the image point that appears on new image plane by using calibrated parameters. This computation is assumed from the rotating the old ones around their optical center until focal planes becomes coplanar, thereby containing the baseline, and the Z-axis of both camera coordinate to be parallel together. The optical center positions of the new extrinsic parameters are the same as the old camera, whereas the new orientation differs from the old ones by the suitable rotations. The intrinsic parameters are the same for both cameras. So that, after completed calibration process, immediately can calculate the 3D-range measurement. And the rectification determines a transformation of each image plane such that pairs of conjugate Epipolar lines become collinear and parallel to one of the image axis. From the experimental results verify the proposed technique are agreed with the expected specifications.

Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the dosimetric and clinical feasibility of volumetric modulated arc based hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (RapidArc) treatment for large acoustic schwannoma (AS >10cc). Materials and Methods: Ten AS patients were immobilized using BrainLab mask. They were subject to multimodality imaging (magnetic resonance and computed tomography) to contour target and organs at risk (brainstem and cochlea). Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) based stereotactic plans were optimized in Eclipse (V11) treatment planning system (TPS) using progressive resolution optimizer-III and final dose calculations were performed using analytical anisotropic algorithm with 1.5 mm grid resolution. All AS presented in this study were treated with VMAT based HSRT to a total dose of 25Gy in 5 fractions (5fractions/week). VMAT plan contains 2-4 non-coplanar arcs. Treatment planning was performed to achieve at least 99% of PTV volume (D99) receives 100% of prescription dose (25Gy), while dose to OAR's were kept below the tolerance limits. Dose-volume histograms (DVH) were analyzed to assess plan quality. Treatments were delivered using upgraded 6 MV un-flattened photon beam (FFF) from Clinac-iX machine. Extensive pretreatment quality assurance measurements were carried out to report on quality of delivery. Point dosimetry was performed using three different detectors, which includes CC13 ion-chamber, Exradin A14 ion-chamber and Exradin W1 plastic scintillator detector (PSD) which have measuring volume of $0.13cm^3$, $0.009cm^3$ and $0.002cm^3$ respectively. Results: Average PTV volume of AS was 11.3cc (${\pm}4.8$), and located in eloquent areas. VMAT plans provided complete PTV coverage with average conformity index of 1.06 (${\pm}0.05$). OAR's dose were kept below tolerance limit recommend by American Association of Physicist in Medicine task group-101(brainstem $V_{0.5cc}$ < 23Gy, cochlea maximum < 25Gy and Optic pathway <25Gy). PSD resulted in superior dosimetric accuracy compared with other two detectors (p=0.021 for PSD.

본 논문에서는 마이크로 스트립으로 급전되는 quasi-Yagi 안테나(QYA)의 이득과 대역폭 개선방법에 대해 연구하였다. QYA의 광대역 특성은 평면 기판 상에 코플래너 스트립으로 급전되는 평면 다이폴 투사기와 그에 근접하는 기생 도파기로부터 얻을 수 있다. 도파기와 접지면 반사기를 추가하여 대역 내 안정된 이득분포를 갖도록 한다. 단락 종단된 마이크로 스트립 선로와 슬롯 선로로 구성된 안테나 내장형 밸런에 의해 QYA를 급전하며, 급전위치를 조절하여 광대역 임피던스 정합을 얻는다. 1.75-2.7 GHz 대역을 포함하고 이득이 4.5 dBi 이상인 QYA를 설계하고 FR4 기판(비유전율 4.4, 두께 1.6mm)상에 제작하였다. 실험결과 제작된 안테나는 대역폭 59.7%(1.55-2.87 GHz), 안정된 이득(4.7-6.5 dBi), 10 dB 이상의 전후방비 등의 우수한 특성을 보였다. 실험결과와 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과가 잘 일치하여 본 연구의 타당성을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 이동 통신용 기지국 안테나로 사용할 수 있는 직렬 급전된 두 개의 다이폴 배열(STDA) 안테나의 대역폭 향상에 관해 연구하였다. 제안된 STDA 안테나는 두 개의 서로 다른 길이의 스트립 다이폴 안테나가 코플래너스트립라인 급전선으로 바로 연결되어 있다. 두 다이폴 사이의 간격과 두 번째 다이폴의 길이를 조정함으로써 대역폭을 증가시킬 수 있다. 또한, 급전부를 최소화하기 위해 단락이 종단된 마이크로스트립라인과 슬롯라인으로 구성된 내장 밸런을 사용하였으며, 급전위치를 조정하여 광대역 임피던스 정합을 얻을 수 있었다. 제안된 구조로 현재 운용되는 이동 통신 주파수를 모두 포함하는 1.75-2.7 GHz 대역에서 이득이 5dBi 이상인 안테나를 설계하고 FR4 기판(비유전율 4.4, 두께 0.8 mm)상에 제작하여 특성을 실험하였다. 제작된 안테나는 VSWR<2 기준으로 임피던스 대역폭이 49%(1.7-2.8 GHz)이고 5.5 dBi 이상의 이득을 가지며, 12 dB 이상의 전후방비를 가진다.
