CNUSAIL-1, to be launched into low-earth orbit, is a cubesat-class satellite equipped with a $2m{\times}2m$ solar sail. One of CNUSAIL's missions is to deploy its solar sail system, thereby deorbiting the satellite, at the end of the satellite's life. This paper presents the design results of the attitude control system for CNUSAIL-1, which maintains the normal vector of the sail by a 3-axis active attitude stabilization approach. The normal vector can be aligned in two orientations: i) along the anti-nadir direction, which minimizes the aerodynamic drag during the nadir-pointing mode, or ii) along the satellite velocity vector, which maximizes the drag during the deorbiting mode. The attitude control system also includes a B-dot controller for detumbling and an eigen-axis maneuver algorithm. The actuators for the attitude control are magnetic torquers and reaction wheels. The feasibility and performance of the design are verified in high-fidelity nonlinear simulations.

EB(Eigen-Beamforming) has widely been applied to MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems to form beams which maximize the effective signal-to-interference plus noise ratio(SINR) of the receiver using the singular value decomposition(SVD) of the MIMO channel. However, the signal detection performance for the mobile station near the cell boundary is severely degraded and the transmission efficiency decreases due to the influence of the interference signal from the adjacent cells. In this paper, we propose an adaptive interference mitigation method for the EB transmission, and evaluate the reception performance. In particular, a reception strategy which adaptively utilizes optimal combining(OC) and minimum mean-squared error for Intercell spatial demultiplexing(MMSE-lSD) is proposed, and the reception performance is investigated in terms of the effective SINR and system capacity. For the average system capacity, the proposed adaptive reception demonstrates the performance enhancement compared to the conventional EB reception using the receiver beamforming vector, and up to 2 bps/Hz performance gain is achieved for mobile station located at the cell edge.

Palmprint-based personal identification system, as a new member in the biometrics system family, has become an active research topic in recent years. Although lots of methods have been made, how to represent palmprint for effective classification is still an open problem and conducting researches. In this paper, the palmprint classification and recognition method based on PCA (Principal Components Analysis) using the dimension reduction of singular vector is proposed. And the 135dpi palmprint image which is obtained by the palmprint acquisition device is used for the effectual palmprint recognition system. The proposed system is consists of the palmprint acquisition device, DB generation algorithm and the palmprint recognition algorithm. The palmprint recognition step is limited 2 times. As a results GAR and FAR are 98.5% and 0.036%.

This paper presents a new technique that enhances the performance of the smart antenna system especially in signal environments of wide angular spread by adopting a weight vector obtained from two eigenvectors of theautocovariance matrix of the received data. While the conventional beamformingtechnique employs only one eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue, the proposed algorithm uses two eigenvectors corresponding to the largest and second largest eigenvalue in such a way that it can be robust enough to the signal environments of wide angular spread. An efficient adaptive procedure is shown to verify that the optimal weight vector consisting of the two eigenvectors is obtained with a reasonable complexity(3.5$N_2$+ 12N) and accuracy. it is also shown in this paper that the numerical results obtained from the proposed adaptive procedure well agree with those obtained from a commercial tool computing the eigen-function of MATLABTM.

Considering the planar structure and nonpolar properity of benzo(a)pyrene(B(a)p) and the planar heme part of cytochrome P-450, stacking interaction is probable. MO calculation on B(a)P and heme part of cytochrome P-450 were carried out to dertermine probable stacking interaction models. In this case, orbital interaction is most important. Accordingly, the stacking positions have high eigen vector in frontier orbital and boning type between two molecules. In this way, five probate models were selected and examined by MN2 and MO method. The most probable .stacking interaction model which is the 4, 5, 6 positions of B(a)P overlap carbon atom and pyrrole ring of ring of heme group was determined.

In this paper, we develope a defect inspection method for each buttons of keypad of cellular phones before they are assembled. The proposed algorithm consists of the similar color checking and its classification, font error detection, and scratch detection based on the segmentation of keypad area and font, translation and rotation processing sequentially. Especially, the proposed segmentation method approximate the pad region as B-spline function to deal with illumination change due to the shape of key button with the slant and curved surface followed by simple thresholding. And also, the rotational information is obtained by using eigen value and eigen vector very fast and effectively. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is good when it is applied to in-line process.

In this paper, we consider a linear precoding for the effective spectrum sharing in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cognitive radio system where a secondary user coexists with primary users. The secondary user employs the orthogonal space time block coding (OSTBC) at the transmitter. Assuming a flat fading channel and a maximum-likelihood receiver, the optimum precoder forces transmission referred to as eigen-beamforming. In this paper, to eliminate the interference, ZF criterion based eigen-beamforming is not only used but also the precoding weight is chosen to cancel the remaining interference. This weight is computed by vector's likelihood. Simulation results show stronger interference suppression capability, better SER performance, and higher capacity than the algorithm in [4].

This study focuses on the system identification of reinforced concrete bridges using vector autoregressive model (VAR). First, the time series output response from a bridge establishes the autoregressive (AR) models. AR models are one of the most accurate methods for stationary time series. Burg's algorithm estimates the autoregressive coefficients (ARCs) at p-lag by reducing the sum of the forward and the backward errors. The computed ARCs are assembled in the state system matrix and the eigen-system realization algorithm (ERA) computes: the eigenvector matrix that contains the vectors of the mode shapes, and the eigenvalue matrix that contains the associated natural frequencies. By taking advantage of the characteristic of the AR model with ERA (ARMERA), civil engineering can address problems related to damage detection. Operational modal analysis using ARMERA is applied to three experiments. One experiment is coupled with an artificial neural network algorithm and it can detect damage locations and extension. The neural network uses a specific number of ARCs as input and multiple submatrix scaling factors of the structural stiffness matrix as output to represent the damage.

This paper analyzes the straight line detection using the principal component analysis (PCA) and proposes its improved algorithm to which two new functions are added. The first function removes invalid pixels through the detected straight line and detects a line again. The second function detects lines from non-overlapped blocks, selects valid line candidates, and detects a valid line from pixels adjacent to each line candidate. The proposed algorithm detects a more accurate straight line with a low computation in comparison with the conventional algorithm in an image with somewhat refined lines.
