  • At COMS SOC, 13m antenna system will serve to transmit command and receive telemetry in S-Band for COMS operation. In addition, Sensor Data and LRIT/HRIT in L-Band will be received and LRIT/HRIT in S-Band will be transmitted through this antenna system. In many cases, G/T is used as barometer to estimate the receiving capability of antenna system. To estimate G/T, this paper presents two approaches, one is analysis based on the specification of antenna and RF equipment while the other is measurement by using Sun. From the results, G/T was proven as more than 20dB/K and it means that the required G/T, 19dB/K is verified successfully.

  • Objectives : The aim of this study was to introduce the concept of health inequalities, and to discuss the underlying assumptions and ethical backgrounds associated with the issue, as well as the theoretical and practical implications of health inequalities. Methods : Based on a review of the literature, we summarize the concepts of health inequalities and inequities and discuss the underlying assumptions and ethical backgrounds associated with these issues from the view of social justice theory. We then discuss the theoretical and practical implications of health inequalities. Results : Health inequality involves ethical considerations, such as judgments on fairness, and it could provide a sensitive barometer to reflect the fairness of social arrangements. Discussion on health inequalities could deepen our understanding of the social etiology of health and provide a basis for the development of comprehensive and integrative social policies. Conclusions : Health equity is not a social goal in and of itself, but should be considered as a part of a broader effort to seek social justice.

  • In order to introduce the touch to engineering and industries, it must be preceded to dstablish a quantitative barometer of the feeling. for this purpose, we developed a tactile measuring system to measure physical properties of texture, such as surface roughness, friction coefficient and compliance. The tactile measuring system uses a LASER type displacement sensor, which is a non-contacting system, in measuring the surface roughness. By considering that human tactile system is a contacting mechanism, this non-contacting method needs to be modified. As a precedent research of that, we compared the contacting and non-contacting method in this paper. Surface roughness of ten cloths were measured by using the measuring system, then compared to the test results using the Kawabata evaluation system(KES), which uses a contacting method in measuring the surface roughness.

  • The Dismantlement and Construction of the buildings have the characteristic of floating change with repetition within a Time Schedule which has fixed resources, that is, Manpower, Materials and Equipments, and involve many disaster factors in performing each processes. But as these factors are variable, a work supervisor should be able to understand data analysed distinctive factors of each activities systematically, organizationally, and scientifically, and diagrammatic information media so that he can control any complex and situation beyond forecast. Thus this study is intended to be a barometer of weighing if the existing process schedule has taken security into consideration by making the characteristics of organization and action of Work package per process in a building field with more factors like these into a network system and is intended to minimize construction disasters by systematizing this into a Transformational Network.

  • 본 논문은 실내 환경에서 스마트 워치(smart watch)를 이용하여 사용자의 원시 데이터를 수집, 가공하고, 이를 통해 사용자의 다양한 복합 동작을 인식하는 방법을 제안한다. 사용자의 동작을 인식하는 방법들은 다양하다. 특히 최근 웨어러블 기기(wearable device)들이 각광받으면서 웨어러블 기기를 이용하여 인체 동작이나 활동 상태 등의 생체신호를 인식하려는 다양한 시도가 일어나고 있다. 하지만 동작이나 활동 상태에 관한 많은 연구들이 센서를 허리에 부착하는 등의 특정한 상황만을 상정하거나 위성항법장치(GPS, global positioning system)에 의존한 실외 환경에 국한되어 있는데, 이는 대부분의 시간을 가정과 직장, 이동 수단 등의 실내 환경에서 소비하는 현대인들의 시간 소비 패턴과는 거리가 있다. 본 연구에서는 스마트 워치의 가속도계(accelerometer), 각속도계(gyroscope), 심박계(heart bit), 압력계(barometer) 등 다양한 센서를 통해 원시데이터를 수집, 가공하여 사용자의 앉기, 서기, 오르막이나 내리막의 걷고 뛰기, 계단의 오르내리기 등 실내에서 일어날 수 있는 복합 동작을 인식하는 방법을 제안한다.

  • Recently, the advanced development of smart devices has increased the interest in health-care, and many people are paying more attentions to disease prevention than disease treatment. Among these prevention methods, the bare body movement has received much attention, and especially walking exercise is attracting much attention because it is enjoyable without any restrictions on place and time. Walking exercise is generally divided into two types: walking on the ground and climbing the stairs. Walking up the stairs consumes much more calories compared to walking on the ground. These walking exercises have the advantage that they can be easily performed by male and female without special equipments or economic considerations. However, there is a lack of applications and systems that accurately determine such walking and stair walking and measure momentum according to stair walking. In this paper, we designed and implemented a real-time walking status analysis system using smartwatch's, pedometer, smartphone's barometer and beacons.

  • Accuracy assessment of tide models in polar ocean has to be performed to accurately analyze tidal response of glaciers by using Double-Differential Interferometric SAR (DDInSAR) technique. In this study, we used 120 DDInSAR images generated from 16 one-day tandem COSMO-SkyMed DInSAR pairs obtained for 2 years and in situ tide height for 11 days measured by a pressure type wave recorder to assess the accuracy of tide models such as TPXO7.1, FES2004, CATS2008a and Ross_Inv in Terra Nova Bay, East Antarctica. Firstly, we compared the double-differential tide height (${\Delta}\dot{T}$) for Campbell Glacier Tongue extracted from the DDInSAR images with that predicted by the tide models. Tide height (T) from in situ measurement was compared to that of the tide models. We also compared 24-hours difference of tide height ($\dot{T}$) from in situ tide height with that from the tide models. The root mean square error (RMSE) of ${\Delta}\dot{T}$, T and $\dot{T}$ decreased after the inverse barometer effect (IBE)-correction of the tide models, from which we confirmed that the IBE of tide models should be corrected requisitely. The RMSE of $\dot{T}$ and ${\Delta}\dot{T}$ were smaller than that of T. This was because $\dot{T}$ is the difference of tide height during temporal baseline of the DInSAR pairs (24 hours), in which the errors from mean sea level of the tide models and in situ tide, and the tide constituents of $S_2$, $K_2$, $K_1$ and $P_1$ used in the tide models were canceled. This confirmed that $\dot{T}$ and ${\Delta}\dot{T}$ predicted by the IBE-corrected tide models can be used in DDInSAR technique. It was difficult to select an optimum tide model for DDInSAR in Terra Nova Bay by using in situ tide height measured in a short period. However, we could confirm that Ross_Inv is the optimum tide model as it showed the smallest RMSE of 4.1 cm by accuracy assessment using the DDInSAR images.

  • Periodical calibrations of radiation detectors are important for accurate quality assurance of therapeutic linac. The measuring instruments such as ion-chamber, thermometer, barometer, and survey meter should be calibrated periodically. Period of calibration for these instruments is suggested 6 month to one year in Korea and two years in other countries nowadays. Therefore, the determination of reasonable period for calibration is needed. In this study, we plan to utilize the results of these survey; frequent in use, how to use and stability of instruments, to determine the optimized period of calibration for the instruments in the departments of radiation oncology in Korea based on the ILAC-G24. The SurveyMonkey web-based survey tool was used and the objects of survey were 18 department of radiation oncology in university hospitals, and 15 departments were answered. The 64 questionnaires which supposed to be answered in 50 minutes were classified as the information of candidates, the thermometer, the barometer, the surveymeter, and the ion-chamber. The thermometers and the barometers were not under periodical calibration for more than half of candidates. The periods of calibration of surveymeters were 6 month to 1 year. We expect that the calibration period can be determined based on these survey results.
