  • 본 연구에서는 초분광영상을 이용한 표적탐지에 있어 배경 신호 특징에 포함되는 표적 신호가 탐지성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고, 분광각을 기준으로 표적과 유사한 분광반사 특성을 가지는 화소들을 배경 특징화 과정에서 제외함으로써 표적탐지 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 초분광 표적탐지를 위해 가장 흔히 이용되는 matched Filter와 adaptive cosine estimator 기법에 대해 실제 항공 초분광영상 자료와 여기에 인공표적을 삽입하여 생성한 모의 자료를 이용한 실험 결과, 배경 특징화를 위한 공분산행렬 계산 시 표적 스펙트럼과 유사도가 높은 표적 유사화소들을 제외함으로써 탐지 성능이 크게 향상될 수 있음이 확인되었다. 분광각외에 다양한 유사도 판정 기준들에 대한 적용성 연구와 함께, 제외되는 표적 유사화소들의 양이 최적으로 결정될 수 있는 방법에 대한 추가 연구가 이루어진다면 사용이 간편하고 성능이 우수한 초분광 표적탐지 기법으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • In the 2D local dimmable LED backlight system, each LED segment can be controlled separately. This can enhance the contrast ratio and reduce overall power consumption of LCDs. However, an artifact such as 'halo mura' can be observed around the bright object in the dark background. This is caused by the light leakage from the bright area into the dark one. Therefore, the 'halo mura' can be more easily observed in the oblique viewing direction. Thus, in this study, the perceivable degree of the halo mura is evaluated according to the level of the off-axis light leakage of LCDs. It is found that an acceptable degree of halo mura can be obtained in 2.0 cd/$m^2$ of the diagonal light leakage. In addition, the halo mura is unperceivable under 0.7 cd/$m^2$ of the diagonal light leakage which can be achieved with optimally compensated polarizers.

  • Background: To prevent small leakage accidents, a real-time and direct detection system for small leaks with a detection limit below that of existing systems, e.g. $0.5gpm{\cdot}hr^{-1}$, is required. In this study, a small-size beta detector, which can be installed inside the reactor containment (CT) building and detect small leaks directly, was suggested and its feasibility was evaluated using MCNPX simulation. Materials and Methods: A target nuclide was selected through analysis of radiation from radionuclides in the reactor coolant system (RCS) and the spectrum was obtained via a silicon detector simulated in MCNPX. A window was designed to reduce the background signal caused by other nuclides. The sensitivity of the detector was also estimated, and its shielding designed for installation inside the reactor CT. Results and Discussion: The beta and gamma spectrum of the silicon detector showed a negligible gamma signal but it also contained an undesired peak at 0.22 MeV due to other nuclides, not the $^{16}N$ target nuclide. Window to remove the peak was derived as 0.4 mm for beryllium. The sensitivity of silicon beta detector with a beryllium window of 1.7 mm thickness was derived as $5.172{\times}10^{-6}{\mu}Ci{\cdot}cc^{-1}$. In addition, the specification of the shielding was evaluated through simulations, and the results showed that the integrity of the silicon detector can be maintained with lead shielding of 3 cm (<15 kg). This is a very small amount compared to the specifications of the lead shielding (600 kg) required for installation of $^{16}N$ gamma detector in inside reactor CT, it was determined that beta detector would have a distinct advantage in terms of miniaturization. Conclusion: The feasibility of the beta detector was evaluated for installation inside the reactor CT to detect small leaks below $0.5gpm{\cdot}hr^{-1}$. In future, the design will be optimized on specific data.

  • Because existing reactant coolant system (RCS) leakage detection mechanisms are insensitive to small leaks, a real-time, direct detection system with a detection threshold below 0.5 gpm·hr-1 was studied. A beta-ray detection system using a silicon detector with good energy resolution for beta rays and a low gamma-ray response was proposed. The detection performance in the leakage condition was evaluated through experiments and simulations. The concentration of 16N in the coolant corresponding to a coolant leakage of 0.5 gpm was calculated using the analytic method and ORIGEN-ARP. Based on the concentration of 16N and the measurement of the silicon detector with 90Sr/90Y, the beta-ray count rate was estimated using MCNPX. To evaluate the effect of gamma rays inside the containment building, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was calculated. To evaluate the count rate ratio, the radiation field inside the containment building was simulated using MCNPX, and response evaluation experiments were performed using beta and gamma rays on the silicon detector. The expected beta-ray count rate at 0.5 gpm leakage was 7.26 × 105 counts/sec, and the signal-to-background count rate ratio exceeded 88 for a transport time of 10 s, demonstrating its suitability for operation inside a reactor containment building.

  • Background: We investigated the current characteristics of a thin-film Ag electrode on a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) diamond. The CVD diamond is widely recognized as a radiation detection material because of its high tolerance against high radiation, stable response to various dose rates, and good sensitivity. Additionally, thin-film Ag has been widely used as an electrode with high electrical conductivity. Materials and Methods: Considering these properties, the thin-film Ag electrode was deposited onto CVD diamonds with varied deposition thicknesses (${\fallingdotseq}50/98/152/257nm$); subsequently, the surface thickness, surface roughness, leakage current, and photo-current were characterized. Results and Discussion: The leakage current was found to be very low, and the photo-current output signal was observed as stable for a deposited film thickness of 98 nm; at this thickness, a uniform and constant surface roughness of the deposited thin-film Ag electrode were obtained. Conclusion: We found that a CVD diamond radiation detector with a thin-film Ag electrode deposition thickness close to 100 nm exhibited minimal leakage current and yielded a highly stable output signal.

  • Background : the technical modality of esophagogastric anastomosis plays an important part in the factors leading to anastomotic leakage and stricture. Objective : The objective of this study was to compare the leakage and stricture rates between the different anastomosis techniques. Materials and Methods : A retrospective study was undertaken in the patients with esophageal cancer who underwent a esophagectomy. Hand-sewn anastomosis was performed in one layer with interrupted sutures(Manual group). The stapler group was divided into two subgroups, such as PCEEA group and Endo-GIA group. Results : The differences of preoperative patient profiles between the groups were not significant. Overall mortality fates were 5% in manual group, 5% in PCEEA group and 11.5% in Endo-GIA group. Fewer anastomotic leakage occurred in manual group(5%) than in PCEEA group(10%) or in Endo-GIA group(15.4%). The postoperative stricture rate was higher in PCEEA group(35%) than in manual group(5%) or in Endo-GIA group(0%) Conclusion : Statistically, there were no significant differences in the anastomotic leakage and stricture rates between the hand-sewn and mechanical anastomosis. But the stricture rate was lower in the group using the linear stapling device and the leakage rate was lower in the hand-sewn group than the other groups.

  • 본 논문은 현재 유선방송 기술기준에서 CDMA 이동통신서비스 대역의 누설전자파 기준이 적절한지를 검증하고자 하였다. 먼저, CDMA 2000 1X 기지국 장비를 통한 실험결과로부터 CDMA 이동통신 시스템의 최대 허용 간섭 레벨은 -110dBm/1.23MHz인 것으로 분석되었다. 이를 토대로 이동통신기지국에 거의 영향을 주지 않을 케이블 방송 옥외 전송설비의 누설 간섭전력의 임계레벨과 누설전자파 세기를 산출하였다. 일반적으로 옥외에서 측정되는 외부시스템의 배경 간섭레벨인 -100~-80dBm/1.23MHz에 대해서 허용될 수 있는 케이블 방송 설비의 누설전자파 임계치는 현행 유선방송 기술기준을 만족시키지 못하였다. 이것은 현행 기술기준이 지나치게 최악의 경우를 상정하여 설정되었음을 의미하므로 이동통신사업자의 실제적인 기지국 조건을 적용하여 합리적인 기술기준을 마련하여야 할 것이다.

  • The epi-CoSi$_{2}$ layer was formed by alloying a Co(120$\AA$)/Ti(50$\AA$) bilayer. In addition, the ultra shallow p$^{+}$n junction of which depth is about not more than 40nm at the background concentration, 10$^{18}$atoms/cm$^{3}$ could be formed by annealing (RTA-II) the ion implanted epi-silicide. When the temperature of RTA-I is as low as possible and that of RTA-II is moderate, the p$^{+}$n junction that has low leakage current and stable epi-silicide layer could be obtained. That is, when th econdition of TRA-I was 900$^{\circ}C$/20sec and that of RTA-II was 900$^{\circ}C$/10sec, the reverse leakage current was as high as 11.3$\mu$A/cm$^{2}$ at -5V. The surface of CoSi$_{2}$ appeared considerably rough. However, when the conditon of RTA-I was 800$^{\circ}C$/20sec or 700$^{\circ}C$/20sec, the leakage currents were as low as 8.3nA/cm$^{2}$ and 9.3nA/cm$^{2}$, respectively and also the surfaces appeared very uniform.

  • Background: There is no established surgical procedure for the treatment of epiphrenic esophageal diverticulum. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of esophageal diverticulectomy using abdominal and thoracic approaches. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 30 patients who underwent esophageal diverticulectomy through the thoracic or abdominal approach for an epiphrenic diverticulum at a single center between 1996 and 2018. We compared clinical outcomes, including the postoperative length of stay, time from the operation to oral feeding, leakage rate, and reoperation rate between the 2 groups. Results: The median age was 56 years. Of the 30 patients, 18 (60%) underwent diverticulectomy via the thoracic approach and 12 (40%) underwent the abdominal approach. The median hospital stay was 10 days (range, 5-211 days) in the thoracic approach group and 9.5 days (range, 5-18 days) in the abdominal approach group. The median time from the operation until oral feeding was 6.5 days (range, 3-299 days) when the thoracic approach was used and 5 days (range, 1-11 days) when the abdominal approach was used. In the thoracic approach group, the leakage rate was 16.67% and the reoperation rate was 27.78%. However, there were no cases of leakage or reoperation in the abdominal approach group. Conclusion: The abdominal approach for esophageal diverticulectomy is a feasible and appropriate alternative to the thoracic approach.
