A new method, the external resistance method (ERM method), is proposed for accurate extraction of the gate bias-dependent effective channel carrier mobility (${\mu}_{eff}$) and separated parasitic source/drain resistances ($R_S$ and $R_D$) of n-channel MOSFET's. The proposed ERM method is applied to n-channel LDD MOSFETs with two different gate lengths ($W_m/L_m=30{\mu}m/0.6{\mu}m,\;30{\mu}m/1{\mu}m$) in the linear mode of current-voltage characteristics ($I_D-V_{GS},\;V_{DS}$). We also considered gate voltage dependence of separated $R_2$ and $R_D$ in the accurate modeling and extraction of effective channel carrier mobility. Good agreement of experimental data is observed in submicron n-channel LDD MOSFETs. Combining with capacitance-voltage characteristics, the ERM method is expected to be very useful for accurate and efficient extraction of ${\mu}_{eff},\;R_D,\;R_S$, and other characteristic parameters in both symmetric and asymmetric structure MOSFET's in which parasitic resistances are critical to the improvement of high speed performance and reliability.

This paper presents a built-in current sensor(BICS) that detects defects in CMOS integrated circuits using the current testing technique. This circuit employs a cross-coupled connected PMOS transistors, it is used as a current comparator. The proposed circuit has a negligible impact on the performance of the circuit under test (CUT) and high speed detection time. In addition, in the operation of the normal mode, the BlCS does not have dissipation of extra power, and it can be applied to the deep submicron process. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation on circuits with defects. The area overhead of a BlCS versus the entire chip is about 9.2%. The chip was fabricated with Hynix $0.35{\mu}m$ 2-poly 4-metal N-well CMOS standard technology.

Since the morden targets are of high speed and getting quiet in both active and passive mode, the necessities of developing advanced SONAR system capable of performing target motion analysis (TMA) and target classification are evident. In order to develop such a system, the scattering mechanism of complex bodies needs to be, some extent, fully understood and modeled. In this paper, MOving Spread Target(MOST) signal simulation model is presented and discussed. The model is based on the highlight distribution method, and simulates pulse elongation of spread target, doppler effect due to kinematics of the target as well as SONAR platform, and distribution target strength of each highlight point (HL) with directivity. The model can be used in developing and evaluating advanced SONAR system through system simulation, and can also be used in the development of target state estimation algorithm.

As a railway is receiving attention as an environment-friendly transportation mode, many high speed, inter-city and urban railway are constructed and remodeled in the world. With this trend, railway RAMS was included in the international standard IEC 62278 in 2002. RAMS activity in domestic market is also increased with this international trend. However, IEC 62278 does not describe the methodology of substantial contents like how reliability target is set although it can be used as an overall guideline when RAMS requirements are included in the purchase specification. That is because RAMS requirements should be set with the specific railway condition. It is required to fully understand the meaning of railway RAMS parameters and apply those correspond to the specific railway system and environment condition especially when a quantitative RAMS requirement is set. In this study, the meaning and characteristics of RAMS parameters applicable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement of rolling stock is described. And the basic concept of RAMS and the definition of failure that IEC 62278 describes is modified and suggested in order to make more suitable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement.

In H.264, 7 modes {16${\times}$16, 16${\times}$8, 8${\times}$16, 8${\times}$8, 8${\times}$4, 4${\times}$8, 4${\times}$4) are used to enhance the coding efficiency. The motion vector estimation with 7 modes may require huge computing time. In this paper, to speed up the motion vector estimation procedure while the high image quality remains, we propose a motion vector refinement scheme using the temporary motion vector generated with little computation. The proposed estimation process consists of three phases: Mode decision for a 16${\times}$16 macroblock, Composing a temporary motion vector, Refinement of the temporary motion vector. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method by computer simulation. In the results, the encoding time consumed by the proposed scheme has been reduced significantly while the encoded video quality remains unchanged.

The Fast Handover in Hierarchical Mobile IPv6(F-HMIPv6) scheme provides a seamless handover in mobile IP networks effectively. However, there is a problem that the mobile node can lose its connectivity to the previous access router because of a sudden degradation of the link quality during fast handover procedure. Additionally, in many cases, the mobile node does not have enough time to exchange messages during the fast handover procedure, especially in case of movement with high speed during handover. In this paper, we propose a modification to F-HMIPv6 that significantly reduces the time to exchange messages during fast handover procedure and thereby increases the probability which the F-HMIPv6 can perform the fast handover in predictive mode.

Since the power capacity needed for the propulsion of large ships is very large, a multiphase AC induction propulsion mode is generally adopted to meet the higher requirements of reliability, redundancy and maintainability. This paper gives a detailed description of the development of a 20MW fifteen-phase PWM driver for advanced fifteen-phase propulsion induction motors with a special third-harmonic injection in terms of the main circuit hardware, control system design, experiments, etc. The adoption of the modular design method for the main circuit hardware design can make the enclosed mechanical structure simple and maintainable. It can also avoid the larger switch stresses caused by the multiple turn on of the IGBTs in conventional large-capacity converter systems. The use of the distributed controller design method based on a high-speed fiber-optic ring net for the control system can overcome such disadvantages as the poor reliability and long maintenance times arising from the conventional centralized controller which is designed according to point-to-point communication. Finally, the performance of the 20MW PWM driver is verified by experimentation on a new fifteen-phase induction propulsion motor.

This paper illustrates the implementation of a scalable shared buffer asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch. The designed shared buffer ATM switch has a shared buffet of a pipelined memory which has the access time of 4 ns. The high-speed buffer access time supports a possibility of the implementation of a shared buffer ATM switch which has a large switching capacity. The designed switch architecture provides flexible switching performance and port size scalability with the independence of queue address control from buffer memory control. The switch size and the buffer size of the designed ATM switch can be reconfigured without serious circuit redesign. The designed prototype chip has a shared buffer of 128-cell and 4 ${\times}$ 4 switch size. It is integrated in 0.6um, double-metal, and single-poly CMOS technology. It has 80MHz operating frequency and supports 640Mbps per port.

Auto Pilot is the system which move automatically the vessel through locating operation mode to automatic after entering operating course using a electronic chart or plotter. And water jet is the a propulsion system that make a power to push the vessel through spouting the accelerated water which is absolbed by the hole in the bottom of vessel. The water jet receive the effect of the depth of water lowly, it's acceletion efficiency is higher under high speed and have an advantage on vibrating and floating sound, so it's demand is increasing as new propulsion system. However, the signal systems of auto Pilot and water jet are defferant, we need the system to communicate between each system. We propose the interface system which communicate between Auto pilot and water jet efficiently in this journal.

Auto Pilot is the system which move automatically the vessel through locating operation mode to automatic after entering operating course using a electronic chart or plotter. And water jet is the a propulsion system that make a power to push the vessel through spouting the accelerated water which is absorbed by the hole in the bottom of vessel. The water jet receive the effect of the depth of water lowly, it's acceleration efficiency is higher under high speed and have an advantage on vibrating and floating sound, so it's demand is increasing as new propulsion system. However, the signal systems of auto pilot and water jet are different, we need the system to interface between each system. We designed the interface that efficiently digital feed back control embedded module between auto pilot and water jet system in this paper.
