We have constructed a level-1 processor to generate brightness temperatures using the direct-broadcast data from the passive microwave radiometer onboard Aqua satellite. Although 50-minute half-orbit data, called a granule, are being routinely produced by global data centers, to our knowledge, this is the first attempt to process 10-minute long direct-broadcast (DB) data. We found that the processor designed for a granule needs modification to apply to the DB data. The modification includes the correction to path number, the selection of land mask and the manipulation of dummy scans. Pixel-to-pixel comparison with a reference indicates the difference in brightness temperature of about 0.2 K rms and less than 0.05 K mean. The difference comes from the different length of data between 50-minute granule and about 10-minute DB data. In detail, due to the short data length, DB data do not always have correct cold sky mirror count. The DB processing system is automated to enable the near-real time generation of brightness temperatures within 5 minutes after downlink. Through this work, we would be able to enhance the use of AMSR-E data, thus serving the objective of direct-broadcast.

We modified the processor designed for a granule to process the direct-broadcast data. After the modification, our brightness temperature product differs from the reference by 0.2K rms. Sea surface temperatures are retrieved to demonstrate the utility of AMSR-E.

We present a processing system for the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) sounding suite onboard Aqua satellite. With its unprecedented 2378 channels in IR bands, AIRS aims at achieving the sounding accuracy of radiosonde (1 K in 1-km layer for temperature and $10\%$ in 2-km layer for humidity). The core of the processor is the International MODIS/AIRS Processing Package (IMAPP) that performs the geometric and radiometric correction for generation of Level 1 brightness temperature and Level 2 geophysical parameters retrieval. The processor can produce automatically from received raw data to Level 2 geophysical parameters. As we process the direct-broadcast data almost for the first time among the AIRS direct-broadcast community, a special attention is paid to understand and verify the Level 2 products. This processor includes sub-systems, that is, the near real time validation system which made the comparison results with in-situ measurement data, and standard digital information system which carry out the data format conversion into GRIdded Binary II (GRIB II) standard format to promote active data communication between meteorological societies. This processing system is planned to encourage the application of geophysical parameters observed by AIRS to research the aqua cycle in the Korean peninsula.

Direct-conversion receiver(DCR) architecture has superior advantages in size, cost, and power over superheterodyne receiver architectures. However, the use of direct-conversion receiver architecture has been limited due to the direct-current offset noise. The ac coupling, which is used to overcome the direct-current offset noise, causes an inter-symbol interference(ISI), whose effects can be effectively mitigated using an equalizer. In this paper, the performance of a direct-conversion receiver with ac coupling in the presence of direct-current offset is analyzed via computer simulation. The simulation result shows that by using decision feedback equalizer with LMS(Least Mean Square) algorithm, signal-to-noise ratio loss of the direct-conversion receiver compared to the idea receiver can be reduced to less than 1㏈ for corner frequencies as large as 10% of the symbol rate.

In order to develop more stable seedling stand method in wet direct rice seeding culture, the effect of making the drainage ditches was studied in both methods of broadcast seeding on floody paddy surface and puddled-soil drill seeding. In a broadcast seeding on floody paddy surface, the ditching after seeding using a tractor or small ditch maker improved the seedling stand, and reduced the floating seedling and herbicide injury by accelerating the drainage. Suitable ditching time was at 2 days after seeding (DAS) for the tractor and at 3 DAS for the ditch maker. In the puddled-soil drill rice seeding culture, the ditching before seeding with a ditch maker at 3 days after draining effectively improved the seedling stand due to quick draining through well formed the seeding furrows. In the puddled-soil drill seeding, seedling stand number showed higher in both ditching plots synchronized with seeding compared with both only draining treatment at 1 DAS without ditching and the flooding plot condition for 6 DAS. And the suitable ditching depth was 6 cm, as considered the ditching status and drained status. These results suggest that the ditching in wet direct rice seeding is an resonable practice for improving the seedling stand through the accelerating drainage of field.

본 논에서는 In-Process COM Component 기반의 DirectShow를 분산환경에서 적용하기 위해 해결해야 할 문제점을 분석하고, 해결방법을 제시한다. Microsoft사에서 제공하는 DirectShow는 Multimedia 데이터 처리용 라이브러리와 이 라이브러리를 사용하는 응용프로그램을 용이하게 제작하기 위한 Framework이다. DirectShow의 라이브러리는 COM기술을 사용하여 제작되기 때문에 재사용 및 유지보수가 용이하다. 하지만, DirectShow는 주로 멀티미디어 데이터의 재생을 위한 기술로서 멀티미디어 서버와 같이 여러 Encoder와 다중화기와 같은 기능을 구현하는데 많은 문제점이 있다. 특히, multi-Protocol Encoder와 같이 계산양이 많은 작업을 해야 할 경우 분산환경을 사용해야 한 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크의 분리되어 있는 두개의 필터를 연결하기 위해 필터간의 메시지 교환을 대리하는 Proxy 필터를 설계/구현하였다. 이러한 Proxy 필터를 사용하면 기존의 필터를 수정하지 않고 사용할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. 특히 Binary로 배포된 필터와 연동하여 사용할 수 있다. 구현된Proxy 필터를 데이터 방송 서버에 활용함으로써 그 기능을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 Microsoft DirectShow기반의 DSM-CC Object Carousel과 Data Download 프로토콜을 위한 인코더의 설계 및 구현에 대해 기술한다. DirectShow는 Component Object Model (COM) 기술을 기반으로 하고 있다. 따라서, 작성된 코드의 재사용과 유지보수가 용이하고, 멀티미디어(Multimedia) 데이터를 편리하게 처리말 수 있는 기능을 제공한다. 또한, 개발자가 COM component를 쉽게 제작할 수 있는 방법을 제공한다 하지만, 스트리밍 오디오/비디오 등의 디코딩을 위주로 개발된 DirectShow기술이 데이터 방송 서버에서의 실시간 인코딩 작업에 사용할 때에는 문제점이 발생한다 Data Carousel 방식에서는 인로딩 도중에 Update를 지원해야 한다. 즉, Carousel데이터의 Update가 있을 경우, 스트리밍(Streaming) 하는 동안 Update된 데이터를 인코딩 하여야 한다. 이러한 상황은 DirectShow의 기본 상태로는 표현하기 어려우므로 기본 상태를 확장하여 별도의 사용자 정의 상태를 추가하였다. 또한, 두 작업을 동시에 수행하기에 적합한 스레드(thread) 모델과 Push/pull 버퍼 모델을 설계하였다. DirectShow를 이용하여 인코더를 구현함으로써 개발자는 개발시간과 비용을 절약 할 수 있고, 사용자에게는 인코더를 등록하고 실행하기 쉬운 환경과 인로딩 상태의 실시간 모니터링 기능을 제공한다.

We present a pre processing system for the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) sounding suite onboard Aqua satellite. With its unprecedented 2378 channels in IR bands, AIRS aims at achieving the sounding accuracy [s1]of a radiosonde (1 K in 1-km layer for temperature and 10% in 2-km layer for humidity). The core of the pre p rocessor is the International MODIS/AIRS Processing Package (IMAPP) that performs the geometric and radiometric correction to compute the Earth's radiance. Then we remove spurious data and retrieve the brightness temperature (Tb). Since we process the direct-broadcast data almost for the first time among the AIRS directbroadcast community, special attention is needed to understand and verify the products. This includes the pixel-to-pixel verification of the direct-broadcast product with reference to the fullorbit product, which shows the difference of less than $10^{-3}$ K in IR Tb.

This study was conducted to find out the feasibility in direct seeded rice cultivation on the reclaimed saline soil. Seedling emergence was tested under the different application rates of rice straw and seeding depth, and also under combined treatments soil moisture regimes and seeding depth on saline soils in a greenhouse. The comparison of seedling stand and yield performance of rice in rotary till after broadcast seeding and in non-plow after broadcast seeding were tested on a field that reclaimed saline soil. Seedling emergence ratio in application of rice straw(4 and 6 tons /ha) was higher than that in non-application of rice straw. Seedling emergence and plant height were remarkably increased with the shallow seeding depth in the application of rice straw(4 tons /ha). The seedling emergence under proper soil moisture condition(25%) was higher than that under excess soil moisture condition(35%). Under proper soil moisture condition, the plant height was increased with the shallowed seeding depth. The number of seedling stand per m$^2$ in non-plow after broadcast seeding was larger than that in rotary till after broadcast seeding. Panicle number per m$^2$ in non-plow after broadcast seeding was much larger than that in rotary till after broadcast seeding and the yield showed the same trends as panicle number.
