For a connected graph G of order $n$, an ordered set $S=\{u_1,u_2,{\cdots},u_k\}$ of vertices in G is a linear edge geodetic set of G if for each edge $e=xy$ in G, there exists an index $i$, $1{\leq}i$ < $k$ such that e lie on a $u_i-u_{i+1}$ geodesic in G, and a linear edge geodetic set of minimum cardinality is the linear edge geodetic number $leg(G)$ of G. A graph G is called a linear edge geodetic graph if it has a linear edge geodetic set. The linear edge geodetic numbers of certain standard graphs are obtained. Let $g_l(G)$ and $eg(G)$ denote the linear geodetic number and the edge geodetic number, respectively of a graph G. For positive integers $r$, $d$ and $k{\geq}2$ with $r$ < $d{\leq}2r$, there exists a connected linear edge geodetic graph with rad $G=r$, diam $G=d$, and $g_l(G)=leg(G)=k$. It is shown that for each pair $a$, $b$ of integers with $3{\leq}a{\leq}b$, there is a connected linear edge geodetic graph G with $eg(G)=a$ and $leg(G)=b$.

디지털 자기 기록 저장기기에서 채널 밀도가 증가하면 심각한 인접심볼 간섭과 비선형 왜곡이 야기된다. 본 논문에서는 심각한 비선형 인접심볼 간섭과 비선형 왜곡을 극복하기 위한 방법으로 기존의 등화기 대신 NLTE(neural linear transversal equalizer)를 등화기로 사용하고 검출기로는 터보 코드를 사용한 NLTE/TC 구조를 제안한다. 채널 밀도 S=2.5에서 부분 삭제가 0.7 정도 존재할 때, 코드율이 8/9일 때는 $10^{-5}$의 비트 에러율을 18dB 이후에서 만족하며, 코드율이 16/17일 때는 20dB 이후에서 만족함을 알 수 있었다. 채널 밀도 S=3에서 부분 삭제가 0.6 정도 존재할 때 코드율이 8/9일 때는 $10^{-5}$의 비트 에러율을 22dB 이후에서 만족하고, 코드율이 16/17일 때는 24dB 이후에서 만족함을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a new method for predicting the 1 dB gain compression point of cascaded N amplifiers is proposed. With the proposed method, the transfer function of each amplifier is derived from scalar data available from the manufacturers data sheet and all transfer functions are producted with scalar in order to also derive the overall transfer function of the subsystem under the assumption that the input and output port of each amplifier are matched. Therefore, the 1 dB gain compression point of the subsystem can be predicted or estimated, reversely, utilizing the overall transfer function obtained with the proposed method. The proposed method can be used irrespective of the number of scalar data but, in this paper, it is analyzed only with two scalar data (linear power gain and 1 dB gain compression point) and three scalar data(linear power gain, 1 dB and 0.5 dB gain compression points). With two sample amplifiers operated in Ku-band, the predicted results by the proposed and previous method, respectively, and the experimental results are together presented in order to confirm its utility.

It is important to get clinical ultrasonic images of good quality for accurate diagnosis. In this study, it observed the change of ultrasonic images against setting frequency, dynamic range(DR) and type of probes on ultrasonic scanner. In the experiment it evaluated image of LCS (Low Contrast Sensitivity) targets(-15, -6, -3, +3, +6, +15 dB) of a standard ultrasonic test phantoms(539,551, ATS, USA) similar to solid and cystic lesions. Its imaged from convex (C3-7IM) and linear probe (L5-12IM) on SA-9900 (Medison Ltd, Korea) scanner. The images obtained altering the setting parameters which are frequency(gen, pen, res, harmonic) mode and DR($40{\sim}100\;dB$). The quality of images evaluated compare with the nominal LCS value of target and measured LCS value. The results show that there was no significant changing of quality images altering DR 40, 60, 80, 100 dB against frequency in Convex probe but the image being the highest in LCS target at DR 60 dB, harmonic of frequency mode in the -15 dB target close to cystic lesion. In Linear probe, DR 40 dB, harmonic mode at -15 dB LCS target close to nominal value. It discussed necessity of evaluation about ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) from the psychological viewpoint and limit of evaluation from quantified images.

A 40 nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor carrier-aggregated drive amplifier with high linearity is presented for sub-GHz Internet of Things applications. The proposed drive amplifier consists of two high linear amplifiers, which are composed of five differential cascode cells. Carrier aggregation can be achieved by switching on both the driver amplifiers simultaneously and combining the two independent signals in the current mode. The common gate bias of the cascode cells is selected to maximize the output 1 dB compression point (P1dB) to support high-linear wideband applications, and is used for the local supply voltage of digital circuitry for gain control. The proposed circuit achieved an output P1dB of 10.7 dBm with over 22.8 dBm of output 3rd-order intercept point up to 0.9 GHz and demonstrated a 55 dBc adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) for the 802.11af with -5 dBm channel power. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of the wideband carrier-aggregated drive amplifier that achieves the highest ACLR performance.

In this paper. We tested and fabricated the error amplifier for the 15 Watt linear power amplifier for the IMT-2000 baseband station. The error amplifier was comprised of subtractor for detecting intermodulation distortion, variable attenuator for control amplitude, variable phase shifter for control phase, low power amplifier and high power amplifier. This component was designed on the RO4350 substrate and integrated the aluminum case with active biasing circuit. For suppression of spurious, the through capacitance was used. The characteristics of error amplifier measured up to 45 dB gain, $\pm$0.66 dB gain flatness and -15 dB input return loss. Results of application to the 15 Watt feedforward Linear Power Amplifier, the error amplifier improved with 27 dB cancellation from 34 dBc to 61 dBc IM$_3$.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has increased worldwide. Although a low serum vitamin D level is known to be associated with the risk of CVD, the mechanism is not well understood yet. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D₃ (25[OH]D) with homocysteine and apolipoprotein B (ApoB). SUBJECTS/METHODS: Of 777 subjects recruited from one health promotion center for routine heath exam from January 2010 to December 2016, 518 subjects were included in this study. Serum 25(OH)D, serum homocysteine, and other metabolic parameters including ApoB were analyzed. Simple and partial correlations were carried out after adjustments. Simple linear regression analysis was used for precise correlation of parameters. Multivariate regression analysis was done to know which factor (serum homocysteine or ApoB) was more related to serum 25(OH)D after adjustments. Finally, logarithms of homocysteine concentrations according to tertiles of serum 25(OH)D were compared. RESULTS: After sex and age adjustments, serum 25(OH)D showed negative correlations with serum homocysteine (r' = -0.114) and ApoB (r' = -0.098). In simple linear regression analysis, serum 25(OH)D showed a significant negative correlation with ApoB (P = 0.035). However, in multivariate regression analysis, serum 25(OH)D was significantly associated with serum homocysteine after adjustments (P = 0.022). In addition, serum homocysteine concentration was significantly high in the lowest 25(OH)D group (P = 0.046). CONCLUSION: Serum 25(OH)D concentration showed a stronger negative association with serum homocysteine than with ApoB.

In this paper, the design of a CMOS exponential V-I converter (EVIC,) based on Taylor's concept, is presented. The composite NMOS transistor is used for realizing the exponential characteristics. In a 0.25 $\mu$m CMOS process, the simulations show more than 20 dB output current range and 15 dB linear range with the linearity error less than $\pm$ 0.5 dB. The power dissipation is less than 0.3 mW with $\pm$ 1.5 V supply voltage. The proposed EVIC can be used for the design of an extremely low­voltage and low-power variable gain amplifier (VGA) and automatic gain control (AGC).
