Remote-sensing optical payloads, especially hyperspectral imagers, have particular issues with stray light because they often encounter high-contrast target/background conditions, such as sun glint. While developing an optical payload, we usually apply several stray-light analysis methods, including forward and backward analyses, separately or in combination, to support lens design and optomechanical design. In addition, we often characterize the stray-light response over a full field to support calibration, or when developing an algorithm to correct stray-light errors. For this purpose, we usually use forward analysis across the entire field, but this requires a tremendous amount of computational time. In this paper, we propose a sequence of forward-backward-forward analyses to more effectively investigate the through-field response of stray light, utilizing the combined advantages of the individual methods. The application is an airborne hyperspectral imager for creating hyperspectral maps from 900 to 1700 nm in a 5-nm-continuous band. With the proposed method, we have investigated the through-field response of stray light to an effective accuracy of 0.1°, while reducing computation time to 1/17^th of that for a conventional, forward-only stray-light analysis.

A mercury sphygmomanometer (MS) has been the gold standard for pediatric blood pressure (BP) measurements, and diagnosing hypertension is critical. However, because of environmental issues, other alternatives are needed. Noninvasive BP measurement devices are largely divided into auscultatory and oscillometric types. The aneroid sphygmomanometer, the currently used auscultatory method, is inferior to MS in terms of limitations such as validation and regular calibration and difficult to apply to infants, in whom Korotkoff sounds are not audible. The oscillometric method uses an automatic device that eliminates errors caused by human observers and has the advantage of being easy to use; however, owing to its measurement accuracy issues, the development of an international validation protocol for children is important. The hybrid method, which combines the auscultatory and electronic methods, solves some of these problems by eliminating the observer bias of terminal digit preference while maintaining measurement accuracy; however, the auscultatory method remains limited. As the age-related characteristics of the pediatric group are heterogeneous, it is necessary to reconsider the appropriate BP measurement method suitable for this indication. In addition, the mobile application-based BP measurement market is growing rapidly with the development of smartphone applications. Although more research is still needed on their accuracy, many experts expect that mobile application-based BP measurement will effectively reduce medical costs due to increased ease of access and early BP management.

Purpose: In this study, pollutants generated in industrial areas were measured using a Portable Air Quality Measurement System(PAQMS). This study intends to examine in detail improvement measures and operational capabilities to operate a more efficient PAQMS. Research design, data and methodology: This study compares and analyzes the measurement values of the PAQMS and the measurement values of the national air quality measurement network. It is intended to develop a PAQMS corresponding to the data of the national measurement network by minimizing the errors that occur during comparative measurement and analysis and supplementing and improving the problems that occur during the current equipment calibration. Results: A PAQMS is an essential equipment for faster and more accurate measurement and analysis of pollutants in case of untimely measurement and civil complaints due to Micro Climate(local weather and environmental influences). Currently, there are many atmospheric measurement equipment in Korea, but only equipment for each item is produced and sold. Currently, these devices on the market must satisfy various conditions such as stable power, temperature, and humidity to calculate accurate measurement values. Conclusions: Therefore, there is no equipment that satisfies the conditions for performing detailed measurement in the field where accurate measurement is required. In this study, these field work conditions and contents for stable measurement were mentioned in the text.

In order to secure the safety of increasing offshore activities such as offshore wind farm maintenance and fishing, IMPACT, a mid-term marine weather forecasting system, was established by predicting marine weather up to 7 days in advance. Forecast data from the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency (KHOA), which provides the most reliable marine meteorological service in Korea, was used, but wind speed and wave height forecast errors increased as the leading forecast period increased, so improvement of the accuracy of the model results was needed. The Model Output Statistics (MOS) method, a post-correction method using statistical machine learning, was applied to improve the prediction accuracy of wave height, which is an important factor in forecasting the risk of marine activities. Compared with the observed data, the wave height prediction results by the model before correction for 6 to 7 days ahead showed an RMSE of 0.692 m and R of 0.591, and there was a tendency to underestimate high waves. After correction with the MOS technique, RMSE was 0.554 m and R was 0.732, confirming that accuracy was significantly improved.

본 논문은 엔진 다운사이징의 관점에서 널리 사용되는 터보과급기 로터의 관성모멘트 측정에 관한 연구이다. Trifilar 방법을 이용하여 관성모멘트를 측정하기 위한 장치를 설계 제작한 후, 장치를 검증하기 위하여 교정로터의 관성모멘트를 측정하였다. 측정의 변동계수는 0.43%, CAD 도면의 관성모멘트와 비교하여 0.75% 오차를 보여 개발된 측정장치가 로터의 관성모멘트 측정에 적합함을 확인하였다. 소형 터보과급기의 터빈 로터와 압축기 휠 각 2개에 대한 관성모멘트 측정을 수행하여 1.0% 미만의 변동계수를 보여 정밀한 측정이 가능함을 보였다. 그러나 CAD 도면의 관성모멘트와 비교한 오차는 터빈 로터는 2.76%와 1.30%로 양호하였으나, 압축기 휠의 경우 27.6%와 24.4%로 상당히 크게 나타났다. 연구에 사용된 압축기 휠은 질량이 소형으로 상대적으로 공기저항이 크고 정확한 주기 측정의 어려움으로 큰 오차를 보였다. 따라서 터빈 로터와 압축기 휠을 결합한 상태에서 측정한 값에서 터빈 로터의 관성모멘트를 빼는 간접 방법으로 측정을 수행하였다. 이때 압축기 휠의 관성모멘트 측정에서 1.2% 미만의 변동계수를 보이고 오차는 5.68%, 7.88%의 값을 보였다.

토양의 용적수분 함량을 현장에서 측정할 수 있어 토양 내 물 이동이나 관개관리에 효과적으로 이용할 수 있는 6종의 토양수분 센서에 대한 검정을 실시했다. TDR형태의 센서가 2종으로 토양단면측정용인 TRIME과 탐침형태인 Mini-TRASE이었으며, 4종은 FDR 형태의 센서로 토양단면 측정용인 EasyAG, EnviroSCAN, PR-1과 탐침형태의 WET-1 센서였다. 코어로 측정한 용적수분함량과 비교한 결과 TRIME은 1차 선형식의 관계에서 코어측정값과 약 2.4%의 오차를 나타냈고, Mini-TRASE는 코어 용적 수분함량과 약 1.4%의 오차를 나타냈으며, 이 오차는 실험에 사용했던 7종의 센서들 중에서 가장 작은 값이었다. EasyAG는 SF로 분석했을 때는 코어측정값과 약 2.6%의 오차를 나타냈고, 센서로 측정한 토양 수분 함량을 코어수분함량과 직접적으로 비교했을 때도 역시 약 2.6%의 오차를 나타냈다. EnviroSCAN은 SF로 분석했을 때는 코어측정값과 약 2.8%의 오차를 나타냈고, 센서로 측정한 토양수분 함량을 코어수분 함량과 직접적으로 비교했을 때는 2.6%의 오차를 나타냈다. WET-1은 센서로 측정한 값과 코어로 실측한 값 사이에 약 2.0%의 오차가 있음을 보여주고 있으며, 이것은 검정에 사용했던 FDR 센서들 중에서는 가장 작은 값이었다. PR-1은 측정시 access 튜브 내에서 방향을 조금씩 바꿀 때마다 측정값이 달리 나오는 경우가 많아 수분함량 측정횟수가 많지 않았으나 실측값과 약 4.7%의 오차를 보였다. 결론적으로 센서의 정확성을 검정하기 위해 사용된 6종의 센서 중 PR-1은 현장 측정에 문제가 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

삼차원 형상 측정 기술은 다양한 산업에서 활용하고 있는 기술이다. 그 중, 광 삼각법에 기초한 광학식 삼차원 형상 측정 기술들은 매일 공장에서 오랜 시간 동안 대량의 삼차원 형상 측정을 하고, 미세한 측정 또한 요구되는 반도체 생산품 검사 분야에서 주로 사용된다. 이러한 광 삼각법 기반의 삼차원 측정 장비들의 구성 요소인 광원과 구동 회로는 장시간 작동하게 되면 발열이 나타나게 되고 장시간 작동하며 주변의 온도가 일정하지 않은 상황에 노출되기도 하여 온도로 인한 측정 오차가 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 장시간 반복해서 사용하는 PMP(Phase Measuring Profilometry) 형상 측정법에서의 열 변위 보정에 관한 방법을 제안하였다. PMP 형상 측정법 기반의 삼차원 형상 측정 장치를 구현하여 10시간에 걸쳐 물체의 높이와 주변 온도를 측정하는 실험을 진행하였고, 측정된 온도와 높이 값을 이용하여 단순 선형 회귀 분석을 하여 회귀직선을 얻었다. 이 회귀직선을 이용하여 온도에 따른 높이 측정값의 오차를 보정하게 되면 정상적인 측정값에서의 오차 값이 139.88 um(Micrometer) 에서 13.12 um로 보정되는 것을 확인하였다.

'천리안 해양위성 2호(2nd Geostationary Ocean Color Imager: GOCI-II)는 천리안 해양위성 1호(GOCI)의 후속위성으로 1개의 근자외 채널(380 nm), 8개의 가시광 채널(412, 443, 490, 510, 555, 620, 660, 680 nm), 3개의 근적외 채널(709, 745, 865 nm)의 총 12개 파장대에서 다분광 관측을 하며, 1시간 간격의 시간 해상도로 한반도 주변 동북아 해양, 1일 간격으로 반구(full disk)영역의 해양 환경 자료를 생산한다. 해색 자료처리의 첫 단계로 대기 상층 복사휘도에서 해수표면 반사도를 계산하는 대기보정을 수행하며, GOCI-II의 표준 대기보정은 GOCI 대기보정 방법에 이론적인 기반을 두고 있으며, GOCI-II에 새로 추가된 밴드 중 620, 709 nm를 이용하여 탁도가 높은 해역에서의 대기보정 성능을 향상시켰다. 본 연구에서는 GOCI-II 지상국 시스템에 구현 되어있는 대기보정 알고리즘을 우선 소개하고, 현장 측정 원격반사도 자료를 이용하여 초기단계 검증을 수행하였다. 검증은 1차적으로 대양에서 수집된 현장 자료와의 비교를 통해 수행하였으며 여기서의 대기보정 정확도는 대양 대기보정 정확도 요구범위인 청색 파장대 오차율 5% 이내의 범위를 만족시켰다. 그러나 연안의 해양관측타워에 설치된 무인 관측장비인 AERONET-OC로 수집된 원격반사도 자료를 이용한 추가적인 검증결과에서는 대양과 달리 높은 오차율을 보여주었다. 연안에서의 대기보정 정확도는 추후 추가적인 근적외 파장대 대리교정을 통해 보완이 가능할 것으로 보이며, 지속적인 검보정 활동을 통해 수집된 현장자료들을 이용할 경우 연안뿐 아니라 전체적인 대기보정 성능 향상이 가능할 것으로 기대된다. 이후 검보정 활동을 통해 개선된 대기보정은 주기적으로 GOCI-II 지상국 시스템에 반영하여 재처리 및 재 배포를 수행할 예정이다.

Rapid cost-effective methods of measuring wood quality are extremely important to tree improvement programs where it is necessary to test large numbers of trees. Non-destructive sampling of a forest can be achieved by using increment cores generally removed at breast height. At CSIRO Forestry and Forest Products methods for the rapid, non-destructive measurement of wood properties and wood chemistry based on increment core samples have been developed. In this paper the application of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to the prediction of a range solid wood properties, including density, longitudinal modulus of elasticity (E$\sub$L/) and microfibril angle (MFA), is described. Experiments conducted on individual species (Eucalyptus delegatensis and Pinus radiata), the two species combined and a number of mixed species from several genera are reported. NIR spectra were obtained from the radial/longitudinal face of each sample and used to develop calibrations for the measured physical properties. When the individual species were used the relationships between laboratory determined data and NIR fitted data were good in all cases. Coefficients of determination (R$^2$) ranging from 0.77 for MFA to 0.93 for stick density were obtained for E. delegatensis and R$^2$ ranging from 0.68 for MFA to 0.94 for strip density were obtained for P. radiata. The calibration statistics for the combined E. delegatensis and P. radiata samples were similar to those found for the individual species. As these results indicated that it might be possible to produce general calibrations based on samples from a number of species of a single genus or samples from a number of different genera, a wide range of species was subsequently tested. Good relationships were obtained for both density and E$\sub$L/. These calibrations had R$^2$ that were slightly lower than those determined using individual species and standard errors that were higher. The mixed species calibrations, when applied to the E. delegatensis and P. radiata sample sets, provided good estimates of density (stick and strip) and E$\sub$L/. The results demonstrated that a mixed species calibration, that encompasses wide variation in terms of, wood anatomy, chemistry and physical properties, could be used to rank trees. Experiments reported in this paper demonstrate that solid wood properties can be estimated by NIR spectroscopy. The method offers a rapid and non-destructive alternative to traditional methods of analysis and is applicable to large-scale non-destructive forest resource assessment, and to tree breeding and silvicultural programs.

Rapid on-site sensing of nitrate-nitrogen and potassium ions in hydroponic solution would increase the efficiency of nutrient use for greenhouse crops cultivated in closed hydroponic systems while reducing the potential for environmental pollution in water and soil. Ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) are a promising approach because of their small size, rapid response, and the ability to directly measure the analyte. The capabilities of the ISEs for sensing nitrate and potassium in hydroponic solution can be affected by the presence of other ions such as calcium, magnesium, sulfate, sodium, and chloride in the solution itself. This study was conducted to investigate the applicability of two ISEs consisting of TDDA-NPOE and valinomycin-DOS PVC membranes for quantitative determinations of $NO_3$-N and K in hydroponic solution. Nine hydroponic solutions were prepared by diluting highly concentrated paprika hydroponic solution to provide a concentration range of 3 to 400 mg/L for $NO_3$-N and K. Two of the calibration curves relating membrane response and nutrient concentration provided coefficients of determination ($R^2$) > 0.98 and standard errors of calibration (SEC) of < 3.79 mV. The use of the direct potentiometry method, in conjunction with an one-point EMF compensation technique, was feasible for measuring $NO_3$-N and K in paprika hydroponic solution due to almost 1:1 relationships and high coefficients of determination ($R^2$ > 0.97) between the levels of $NO_3$-N and K obtained with the ion-selective electrodes and standard instruments. However, even though there were strong linear relationships ($R^2$ > 0.94) between the $NO_3$-N and K concentrations determined by the Gran's plot-based multiple standard addition method and by standard instruments, hydroponic $NO_3$-N concentrations measured with the ISEs, on average, were about 10% higher than those obtained with the automated analyzer whereas the K ISE predicted about 59% lower K than did the ICP spectrometer, probably due to no compensation for a difference between actual and expected concentrations of standard solutions directly prepared.
