본 논문에서는 CSRR구조의 대역제거특성을 이용하여 정지위성용 이중대역 원편파안테나를 설계하였다. 정지위성의 송신(1525~1559MHz)과 수신주파수(1626.5~1660.5MHz)사이에 대역저지 특성을 갖기위하여 사각 CSRR (Complementary split ring resonator)을 안테나의 그라운드면에 식각하였으며 패치안테나의 모서리 부분을 절삭하여 원편파 특성을 얻었다. 패치안테나의 공진주파수는 CSRR의 크기와 위치에 의해 달라지며 시뮬레이션과 측정을 통하여 원편파 특성을 확인하였다. 측정결과 송신과 수신 주파수대역에서 약 0.2dB와 1.5dB의 이득을 얻었다.

This paper presents a wideband and low-noise direct conversion front-end receiver supporting VHF and UHFbands simultaneously. The receiver iscomposed of a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a down conversion quadrature mixer, and a frequency divider by 2. The cascode configuration with the resistor feedback is exploited in the LNA to achieve a wide operating bandwidth. Four gainstep modesare employed using a switched resistor bank and a capacitor bank in the signal path to cope with wide dynamic input power range. The verticalbipolar junction transistors are used as the switching elements in the mixer to reduce 1/f noise corner frequency. The proposed front-end receiver fabricated in 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology shows very low minimum noise figureof 1.8 dB and third order input intercept pointof -12dBm inthe high-gain mode of 26.5 dBmeasured at 500 MHz.The proposed receiverconsumeslow current of 20 mA from a 1.8 V power supply.

Improving practicality of SLAM requires various sensors to be fused effectively in order to cope with uncertainty induced from both environment and sensors. In this case, combining sonar and vision sensors possesses numerous advantages of economical efficiency and complementary cooperation. Especially, it can remedy false data association and divergence problem of sonar sensors, and overcome low frequency SLAM update caused by computational burden and weakness in illumination changes of vision sensors. In this paper, we propose a SLAM method to join sonar sensors and stereo camera together. It consists of two schemes, extracting robust point and line features from sonar data and recognizing planar visual objects using multi-scale Harris corner detector and its SIFT descriptor from pre-constructed object database. And fusing sonar features and visual objects through EKF-SLAM can give correct data association via object recognition and high frequency update via sonar features. As a result, it can increase robustness and accuracy of SLAM in indoor environment. The performance of the proposed algorithm was verified by experiments in home -like environment.

MPEG 및 H.263과 같은 동화상 압축 방식에 의하여 고 압축된 영상이 복원되었을 때 블록화 현상, 코너 이상치 (coner outliers), 링잉 잡음이 발생한다. 블록화 현상은 8x8 블록의 코너 (corner) 점에서 발생하는 잡음이며, 링잉 잡음은 영상의 에지 주변에서 발생하는 잡음이다. 그 이유는 MPEG 및 H.263이 8x8 화소 블록의 DCT 계수를 양자화 (quantization)하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 및 H.263의 복원된 영상에서 발생하는 블록화 현상, 코니 이상치, 링잉 잡음을 줄이기 위해 기존의 저자들에 의하여 제안된 방법에 대한 주관적, 객관적 평가를 수행한다. 이 신호 적응형 후처리 방법은 압축된 데이터로부터 추출한 8x8 DCT 계수의 분포 정보와 움직임 벡터 정보를 이용하여 적응적으로 양자화 효과를 (quantization effect) 줄인다. 블록화 현상은 1차원 수평 및 수직 저대역 필터에 (low pass filter) 의하여 줄게 되고, 링잉 잡음은 2차원 신호 적응 필터 (signal-adaptive filter)에 의하여 줄게 된다. 신호 적응형 후처리 방법과 MPEG-4 VM (verification model)의 후처리 방법에 대한 MSSM (Modified Single Stimulus Method)을 이용한 주관적 \ulcorner질평가, 객관적 화질평가 (PSNR), 계산량 복잡도 (complexity)에 관한 비교연구가 컴퓨터 실험에 의하여 수행된다. 컴퓨터 실험을 위하여 MPEG-4에서 입력으로 사용하는 시험용 비데오 시퀀스를 이용하였다. 주관적인 화질 평가에서 두 방법은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 반면 객관적 평가와 계산량 복잡도 분석 측면에 있어서, 신호 적응형 후처리 방법이 MPEG-4 VM의 후처리 방법보다 우수한 성능을 보였다.

In order to reduce seismic hazard the characteristics of strong earthquakes are required. In the region where strong earthquakes do not happen frequently the stochastic simulation of strong motion is an alternative way to predict strong motions. this simulation required input parameters such as the quality factor the corner frequency the moment magnitude the stress drop and so on which can be obtained from analyses of records of small and intermediate earthquakes. Using those parameters obtained in the previous work the strong ground motions are predicted employing the stochastic method, . The results are compared to the two observed earthquakes-the Ulsan Offshore Earthquake and the Kyungju Earthquake. Although some deviations are found the predictions are similar to the observed data. Finally we computed attenuation equations for PGA PGV and ground accelerations for some frequencies using the results of predictions. These results can be used for earthquake engineering and more reliable results will come out as earthquake observations continue.

The quality factor and the seismic source parameters such as the $\chi$ corner frequency and the stress drop were estimated from the small-to-medium instrumental earthquake data in south Korea. The Q facter with 95% confidence level ranges from 1519 to 2158. The regression equation of $\chi$in terms of epicentral distance R, is obtained as $\chi$=0.006717+0.00015R. And the stress drop is estimated as 50 bar which is similar to the previous results carried out by independent researchers. Artificial ground motions were simulated using the estimated earthquake parameter values and compared with real earthquake, The simulated response spectrum is very similar to real one.

This study presents a dual-band polarization-reconfigurable antenna that comprises a large square patch with a pair of corner-cut edges and two small square patches with a shorting via. Two PIN diodes are located between the large square patch and two small square patches. Depending on the bias state applied to the two PIN diodes, each small patch may be disconnected or connected to the large square patch. As a result, the proposed antenna can provide polarization reconfigurability between two orthogonal linear polarizations. Further, the proposed antenna operates at 2.51 GHz and 2.71 GHz. From the measured results, the proposed antenna shows a 10 dB bandwidth of 2.39% (2.49-2.55 GHz) and 2.58% (2.68-2.75 GHz). In this work, the frequency ratio can be easily controlled by changing the size of the small patch.

한반도 동남부 지역에서 발생하고 관찰된 약진 또는 중진의 자료를 이영하여 이 지역의 Q값과 지진원의 특성인 모서리 주파수 (fc), 응력강하량(Δ$\delta$) 및 모멘크규모 (Mw)를 산정하였다. 가속도 스펙트럼의 경사와 관련된 x의 통계학적 분포로부터 추정한 Q의 95% 신뢰범위는 1656~2454 이다. 1998년 1월 18일 울산 앞바다 지진과 1997년 6월 26일 경주지진의 지진원 요소를 구한 결과 fc 는 각각 4.22Hz , 2.94Hz, Δ$\delta$는 각각 106.8 bar, 106.2 bar, Mw는 각각 3.9, 4.0으로 추정되었다. 제한된 자료수로 인하여 이들의 통계학적 성질을 충분히 규명하지는 못하였지만 다른 연구자들의 기존결과와 유사한 값을 보인다. 본 연구의 결과는 강진동 모사에 직접 이용이 가능하며, 이 지역에 위치한 원자력 발전소 내진 안전성 검토에도 이용될 수 있다.

The radiation of sound from a rectangular plate with a guided edge condition is investigated. By taking this particular boundary condition into account, simple analytical forms of the average radiation efficiency and radiation power based on the modal approach can be found, where the cross-modal terms can average out for all possible point excitation locations. Design variables of the plate such as thickness, aspect ratio, and damping that are closely related to the sound radiation are mainly discussed. The radiation power of the guided plate is found to be governed by the piston mode as well as the critical frequency. While both the radiation efficiency and the radiation power seem to be influenced by thickness and a large aspect ratio, damping loss factor seems less important to the radiation power. It is also shown that no clear corner and edge mode regions may be found for the guided case, unlike the pinned.

Evaluation of fatigue strength considering the springing effect of very large container ships is crucial in the design stage. In this study, we established a fatigue strength evaluation method considering a linear springing component in the frequency domain. Based on a three-dimensional global model, a fluid-structure interaction analysis was performed and the modal superposition method was applied to determine the hot spot stress at the hatch corner of very large container ships. Fatigue damage was directly estimated using the stress transfer function with a linear springing response. Furthermore, we proposed a new methodology to apply the springing effect to fatigue damage using hull girder loads. Subsequently, we estimated the fatigue damage contribution due to linear springing components along the ship length. Finally, we discussed the practical application of the proposed methods.
