Radiation generating devices must be properly shielded for their safe application. Although institutes such as US National Bureau of Standards and National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) have provided guidelines for shielding X-ray tube of various purposes, industry people tend to rely on 'Half Value Layer (HVL) method' which requires relatively simple calculation compared to the case of those guidelines. The method is based on the fact that the intensity, dose, and air kerma of narrow beam incident on shielding wall decreases by about half as the beam penetrates the HVL thickness of the wall. One can adjust shielding wall thickness to satisfy outside wall dose or air kerma requirements with this calculation. However, this may not always be the case because 1) The strict definition of HVL deals with only Intensity, 2) The situation is different when the beam is not 'narrow'; the beam quality inside the wall is distorted and related changes on outside wall dose or air kerma such as buildup effect occurs. Therefore, sometimes more careful research should be done in order to verify the effect of shielding specific radiation generating device. High energy X-ray tubes which is operated at the voltage above 400 kV that are used for 'heavy' nondestructive inspection is an example. People have less experience in running and shielding such device than in the case of widely-used low energy X-ray tubes operated at the voltage below 300 kV. In this study, Air Kerma value per week, outside concrete shielding wall of various thickness surrounding 450 kVp X-ray tube were calculated using MCNP simulation with the aid of Geometry Splitting method which is a famous Variance Reduction technique. The comparison between simulated result, HVL method result, and NCRP Report 147 safety goal $0.02mGy\;wk^{-1}$ on Air Kerma for the place where the public are free to pass showed that concrete wall of thickness 80 cm is needed to achieve the safety goal. Essentially same result was obtained from the application of HVL method except that it suggest the need of additional 5 cm concrete wall thickness. Therefore, employing the result from HVL method calculation as an conservative upper limit of concrete shielding wall thickness was found to be useful; It would be easy, economic, and reasonable way to set shielding wall thickness.

고용량 $^{131}I$ 치료는 분화갑상선암으로 인한 갑상선전절제술을 받은 환자에게 보편적으로 시행되어 왔다. 고용량 $^{131}I$ 치료를 하는 경우 환자로부터 일반인이 받게 되는 피폭선량을 선량한도 이내로 제한하기 위해 환자를 일정 기간 동안 격리하여야 한다. 유효반감기는 환자로부터 가족들이 얼마나 피폭되는지 계산하거나 격리기간을 결정하는데 중요한 값이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 NM670 SPECT/CT를 이용해 고용량 $^{131}I$ 치료환자의 유효붕괴상수, 유효반감기, 격리기간을 도출하였다. 본 연구를 통해 고용량 $^{131}I$ 치료환자의 유효반감기를 도출하였고, 체내에 잔류 방사능량이 퇴원기준인 1.2 GBq 에 도달하는 시간을 확인하였다. 또한 치료선량별 유효반감기를 비교하였을 때 유의한 차이가 없었으나, 격리기간은 치료선량이 커질수록 격리기간이 길어지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 전처치 유형별 유효반감기를 비교하였을 때 rhTSH 환자군과 THW 환자군의 유효반감기가 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 격리기간은 rhTSH 환자군이 THW 환자군 보다 짧게 나타났다. 이는 치료선량의 차이로 인해 격리기간이 짧아진 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 현행 의료보험체계(rhTSH 사용 시 3.7 GBq 이하에서 보험적용)가 유지된다면, 전처치 유형별로 구분하여 현행 격리기간(2박 3일)보다 더 이른 시간에 환자를 퇴원시킬 수 있을 것이다.

본 논문은 전력소모와 면적을 줄인 지연된 피드-포워드 경로를 갖는 3차 SDM 구조를 제안하였다. 제안한 SDM은 기존의 적분기 2개로 구현된 3차 SDM(Sigma-Delta Modulator) 구조를 개선하였다. 제안된 구조에서는 기존 구조의 둘째 단에 지연된 피드-포워드 경로를 삽입함으로써 첫째 단의 계수 값을 2배로 증가시킬 수 있어 기존구조에 비하여 첫째 단 적분기 커패시터($C_I$)를 1/2로 감소시킬 수 있다. 그러므로 첫째 단 적분기의 부하 커패시턴스가 1/2로 작아지기 때문에 첫째 단 연산증폭기의 출력전류는 51%, 첫째 단의 커패시터 면적은 48% 감소되어 제안한 구조는 전력과 면적을 최적화 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 구조를 이용하여 설계된 3차 SC SDM은 $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정에서 공급전압 1.8V, 입력신호 1Vpp/1KHz, 신호대역폭 24KHz, 샘플링 주파수 2.8224MHz 조건으로 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그 결과 SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) 88.9dB, ENOB(Effective Number of Bits) 14비트이고 SDM의 전체 전력소모는 $180{\mu}W$이다.

In order to investigate the feasibility of transmucosal delivery of the model peptide, LHRH, metabolism of LHRH and inhibition effect of medium chain fatty acid salts were studied in rabbit mucosal homogenate. LHRH incubated in homogenates of rectal(RE), nasal(NA) and vaginal(VA) mucosa were assayed by HPLC. Five to six degradation products of LHRH were deterted and the degradation of LHRH$(500\;{\mu}g/ml)$ followed the first order kinetics. The main degradation products were found as $LHRH^{1-5}(M-I)$, $LHRH^{1-3}(M-II)$ and $LHRH^{1-6}(M-III)$ by the method of amino acid analysis. The half-lives of LHRH in the mucosal homogenates were found to be less than 20 min at protein concentration of 2.5 mg/ml with the order of VA>NA>RE mucosal homogenate. Medium chain fatty acid salts such as sodium caprylate $(C_8)$, sodium caprate $(C_{10})$ and sodium laurate $(C_{12})$ at the concentration of $0.5%{\sim}1.0%$ inhibit the proteolysis of LHRH significantly. The addition of sodium laurate(0.5%) into the NA and VA mucosal homogenates protected LHRH completely from the degradation.

In this paper, we investigated possible optical parameters causing deviation of experimentally observed output spectra from theoretically predicted results in a high-order fiber comb filter based on a polarization-diversity loop configuration. They include wavelength dependency of half-wave plates (HWPs) inserted in the filter for wavelength switching and the modal birefringence of single-mode fibers (SMFs) with which optical components comprising the filter are connected. In order to consider the effect of the modal birefringence of the SMF on a filter performance, it is modeled as a low birefringence fiber with an arbitrary orientation angle and birefringence. It is found from the simulation results that the modal birefringence of SMFs strongly affects the spectral characteristics of the filter and decreases the extinction ratio of the filter, compared with the wavelength dependency of HWPs. In particular, it is also confirmed that the spectral deviation and asymmetric distortions of side-lobes in narrow band transmission spectra result mainly from the modal birefringence of SMFs.

In this paper, we propose a Lyot-type optical fiber comb filter based on a polarization-diversity loop structure (PDLS), which has flat-top pass bands and multiwavelength switching capability. Generally, the PDLS can remove the dependency of the filter on input polarization. The proposed filter is composed of a polarization beam splitter, two half-wave plates (HWPs), and two polarization-maintaining fiber loops concatenated with a $60^{\circ}$ offset between their principal axes. By controlling two HWPs, it can operate in a flat-top band mode or a lossy flat-top band mode with an inherent insertion loss of ~3.49dB. In particular, flat-top bands can be interleaved in both modes, which cannot be realized in a Lyot-Sagnac comb filter based on a fiber coupler. Compared with Solc-type high-order comb filters with the same order, the proposed filter shows sharper transition between pass and stop bands.

As flying robots are becoming popular, there are increased needs to use themforsuch purposes as parcel delivery, serving in restaurants, and stage performances. To control flying robots such as quad copters, localization is essential. In order to properly position flying robots, many techniques are in development, including IR (infra-red)-based systemswhich catch markers on a flying robot in order that it can position itself. However, this technique demonstrates only short coverage. Furthermore, localization from inertial sensors diverges as time passes. For this reason, this paper suggests a TWR (two-way ranging) based positioning technique. Despite the weaknesses in currently available TWR system, this paper suggests a self-positioning and outlier detection technique in order to provide reliable position information with a faster update rate. The self-positioning system sends a shorter message which reduces wireless traffic. By detecting and removing outlier measurements, a positioning result with better accuracy is acquired. Finally, this paper shows that the suggesting system detects outlierssequentially from less than half the number of anchors in localization system according to the degree of outlier in measurement and the noise level. By performing an outlier algorithm, better positioning accuracy is acquired as shown in the experimental result.
