In studies on an alternative insulating gas of $SF_6$ gas, the section of the alternative gas and an insulation technique to improve its low dielectric strength have been reported, but very few attempts have been made at the dependence of a gas pressure and a gap as well as the medium effect in the alternative gas. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dependence of the gas pressure and the gap at surface flashover voltage in dry air. The dependence is analyzed based on the medium effect. The medium effect by the gas pressure and the gap can be explained by surface roughness of a solid dielectric and an electrode as well as an electric field which decreases due to the correlation between the collision ionization coefficient and the gap, respectively. In addition, an insulation technique which can fabricate a compact eco-friendly gas insulated switchgear is proposed by the results of this paper.

This paper presents half wavelength partial H-plane filters with multiple attenuation poles using narrow H-plane slot of evanescent waveguide. The narrow H-plane slot operates as an admittance inverter o( the bandpass filter and, simultaneously, generates an attenuation pole at particular frequency. Therefore, proposed filters with attenuation poles are simply implemented without any additional coupling and extra modification of the structure. The number of attenuation poles of the filters equals to that of the H-plane slots. Moreover, proposed filters are compact waveguide filter since ones are embodied by partial H-plane waveguide which has 1/4 cross section of conventional waveguide. The third and fourth-order half wavelength filters having 4 and 5 attenuation poles, respectively, are designed in H-band and their frequency responses are confirmed by simulation and measurement.

Miniature heat pipe(MHP) with woven-wired wick was used to cool the CPU of a notebook PC. The pipe with circular cross-section was pressed and bent for packaging the MHP into a notebook PC with very limited compact packaging space. A cross-sectional area of the pipe is reduced about 30% as the MHP with 4mm diameter is pressed to 2mm thickness. In the present study a performance test has been performed in order to review varying of operating performance according to pressed thickness variation and heat dissipation capacity of MHP cooling module that is packaged on a notebook PC. New wick type was considered for overcoming low heat transfer limit when MHP is pressed to thin-plate. The limiting thickness or pressing is shown to be within the range of 2mm∼2.5mm through the performance test with varying the pressing thickness. When the wall thickness of 0.4mm is reduced to 0.25mm for minimizing conductive thermal resistance through the wall of heat pipe, heat transfer limit and thermal resistance of MHP were improved about 10%. In the meantime, it is shown that the thermal resistance and heat transfer limit for the MHP with central wick type are higher than those of MHP with existing wick types. The results of performance test for MHP cooling modules with woven-wired wick to cool a notebook PC shows the stability as cooling system since T(sub)j(Temperature of Processor Junction) satisfy a demand condition of 0∼100$\^{C}$ under 11.5W of CPU heat.

A tunable optical delay line is designed, fabricated, and characterized. The tunable delay line consists of four polymer-ring add/drop filters with delay waveguides between adjacent ones. The polymer waveguide is a buried structure, designed to be square with core width and height of $1.8{\mu}m$. The refractive indices of the core and cladding polymer are 1.48 and 1.37 respectively. The large index difference and small cross section of the waveguide enable us to realize a compact device using a small radius of curvature. Four pairs of electrodes are evaporated above the add/drop filters to provide heating currents for thermal tuning. In measurements we can identify variable time delays of 110, 225, and 330 ps in proportion to the number of delay lines.

Recently, the interest is increasing about the exposed concrete, accordingly, exposed concrete is expanding the use. However, concrete structures is difficult to apply the general concrete for exposed concrete, due to complex section and compact reinforcement, increasingly. Therefore, in this paper, for application of high fluidity concrete as exposed concrete, exposed high fluidity concrete using fly ash and lime stone powder was manufactured and observed quality property(fluidity properties, mechanical properties and Surface Properties) of exposed high fluidity concrete. The experiments are based on the OPC and LSP10, was evaluated Impact on the quality of concrete according to mixing ratio of FA(0, 10, 15 and 20). As a result, fluidity properties, mechanical properties and Surface Properties of exposed high fluidity concrete were satisfied to requirement conditions, fluidity and surface finishability was improved depending on mix of fly ash and limestone powder. Through this, we utilize of basic research data for development of high fluidity concrete for exposed concrete.

The radar signals are generally very sensitive to relative orientations between radar and target. Thus, the performance of a target recognition system significantly deteriorates as the region of aspect angles becomes broader. To address this difficulty, in this paper, we propose a method based on the multi-aspect information in order to improve the classification capability ever for a wide angular region. First, range profiles are used to extract feature vectors based on the central moments and principal component analysis(PCA). Then, a classifier with the use of multi-aspect information is applied to them, yielding an additional improvement of target recognition capability. There are two different strategies among the classifiers that can fuse the information from multi-aspect radar signals: independent methodology and dependent methodology. In this study, the performances of the two strategies are compared within the frame work of target recognition. The radar cross section(RCS) data of six aircraft models measured at compact range of Pohang University of Science and Technology are used to demonstrate and compare the performances of the two strategies.

The results of microstructure observations of the $Al_2O_3$ scale formed on a Fe-Cr-Al steel during high temperature oxidation in the $SO_2$ atmosphere are presented. Morphology of the scale has been studied by SEM and TEM techniques. Phase and chemical compositions have been studied by EDX and XRD techniques. The alumina oxide is a primary component of the scale. TEM observations showed that the scale was multilayer. The entire surface of the scale is covered with "whiskers", which look like very thin platelets and have random orientation. The cross section of a sample shows, that the "whiskers" are approximately $2{\mu}m$ high, however the compact scale layer on which they reside is $0.2{\mu}m$ thick. The scale layer was composed mainly of small equiaxial grains and a residual amount of small columnar grains. EDX analysis of the scale surface showed that the any sulfides were found in the formed outer and thin inner scale layer. A phase analysis of the scale formed revealed that it is composed mainly of the $\theta-Al_2O_3$ phase and a residual amount of $\alpha-Al_2O_3$.

In this paper, microstrip array antenna is proposed for the wireless communication of DSRC(dedicated short range communication) scheme at 5.8GHz, which works as a part of the Navigation terminal. The microstrip patches minimized from a rectangular microstrip antenna with a half wavelength are arrayed to be mounted on the narrow and long area in the top side of the navigation terminal. Besides, the array antenna can limit its own beamwidth to the driving lane and has better directivity. It is simulated to verify the validity of the proposed application. The prototype fabricated has a volume of $18{\times}40{\times}0.8mm^3$. From the measurement, it has circular polarization performance of 4dB axial ratio over 40MHz frequency band. In addition, antenna gain of 6.2dBi and 3dB beamwidth of $70^{\circ}$ at cross section of driving lane have been achieved.

This paper presents a compact and miniaturized power detector utilizing low temperature co-fired ceramics(LTCC) technology for the application in wireless handset system to monitor the transmitting power at the frequency of 824-849MHz. The proposed power detector is composed of detector diode, lumped components for matching network, and LTCC stripline coupler based on LTCC substrate technology. A 20dB LTCC stripline direction coupler is designed and implemented with many bending section in order to reduce the practically occupied area for miniaturization. A zero bias schottky diode is adopted for detector design because of its high speed operation with minimized loss. The measured performances of fabricated detector agree well with the predicted results with a good linearity within the effective input RF power range.

A miniaturized laser beam transmitter, in which a visible laser module at ${\lambda}$=650 nm is precisely stacked upon an infrared (IR) module at ${\lambda}$=905 nm, has been proposed and constructed to provide an IR collimated beam in conjunction with a collinear monitoring visible beam. In particular, the IR beam is selectively dispersed through a perforated sheet diffuser, so as to create a rapidly diverging close-range beam in addition to a highly defined long-range beam simultaneously. The complementary close-range beam plays a role in mitigating the blind region in the vicinity of the transmitter, which is inevitably missed by the main long-range beam, thereby uniformly extending the transmitter's effective trajectory that is sensed by a receiver. The proposed transmitter was designed through numerical simulations and then fabricated by incorporating a diffuser sheet, perforated with an aperture of 2 mm. For the manufactured transmitter, the IR long-range beam was observed to have divergences of ~2.3 and 1.6 mrad in the fast and slow axes, respectively, while the short-range beam yielded a divergence of ~24 mrad. The angular alignment between the long-range IR and visible beams was as accurate as ~0.5 mrad. According to an outdoor feasibility test involving a receiver, the combination of the IR long- and short-range beams was proven to achieve a nearly uniform trajectory over a distance ranging up to ~600 m, with an average detectable cross-section of ${\sim}60{\times}80cm^2$.
