Passive sensors such as Laser Range Finder(LRF) and Forward Looking Infrared(FLIR) camera frequently used for tracking aircraft landing produce the measurements of elevation angle contaminated by large noise due to the exhaust plume disturbance. This results in poor tracking performance if the extended Kalman filter is used for estimation of the range and elevation which are corrupted by the non-Gaussian noise such as plume disturbance. In this paper, an adaptive estimation filter and the extended Kalman filter is combined to produce a combination-type filter. In this approach the adaptive filter is used for the plume-type disturbance noise and the extended Kalman filter is utilized for the measurement of Gaussian type. The proposed combination filter is effective for the trajectory estimation of landing aircraft under the influence of unknown bias and numerical simulations illustrate the performance of the proposed filter.

Ocean color remote sensing community currently uses the different solar irradiance spectra covering the visible and near-infrared in the calibration/validation and deriving products of ocean color instruments. These spectra derived from single and / or multiple measurements sets or models have significant discrepancies, primarily due to variation of the solar activity and uncertainties in the measurements from various instruments and their different calibration standards. Thus, it is prudent to examine model-to-model differences and select a standard reference spectrum that can be adopted in the future calibration and validation processes, particularly of the first Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) onboard its Communication Ocean and Meterological Satellite (COMS) planned to be launched in 2008. From an exhaustive survey that reveals a variety of solar spectra in the literature, only eight spectra are considered here seeing as reference in many remote sensing applications. Several criteria are designed to define the reference spectrum: i.e., minimum spectral range of 350-1200nm, based completely or mostly on direct measurements, possible update of data and less errors. A careful analysis of these spectra reveals that the Thuillier 2004 spectrum seems to be very identical compared to other spectra, primarily because it represents very high spectral resolution and the current state of the art in solar irradiance spectra of exceptionally low uncertainty ${\sim}0.1%.$ This study also suggests use of the Gueymard 2004 spectrum as an alternative for applications of multispectral/multipurpose satellite sensors covering the terrestrial regions of interest, where it provides spectral converge beyond 2400nm of the Thuillier 2004 spectrum. Since the solar-activity induced spectral variation is about less than 0.1% and a large portion of this variability occurs particularly in the ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is the region of less interest for the ocean color community, we disregard considering this variability in the analysis of solar irradiance spectra, although determine the solar constant 1366.1 $Wm^{-2}$ to be proposed for an improved approximation of the extraterrestrial solar spectrum in the visible and NIR region.

The "intelligent internet power outlets" realized in this study use Internet environment to connect electrical and electronic products to the Net as well as to enable remote monitoring and control. They also have temperature and light sensors, and even offer scheduling options by means of a universal calendar run by an inner real-time timer. Furthermore, they control 4 outlets handling 4 external input conditions and infrared remote control with easy-to-use functions for home automation control. The user interface is equipped with an embedded Web server and UDP protocol handler, and which also allows special control programs be used with the Web browser. Thus, installing this real-time power control function with optimal scheduling and various communication functions will provide you with energy-efficient power outlets outfitted with the increasingly popular "standby power" electric power efficiency.

To develop a methodology for absolute determination of the surface areal density of functional groups on organic and bio thin films, medium energy ion scattering (MEIS) spectroscopy was utilized to provide references for calibration of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) or Fourier transformation-infrared (FT-IR) intensities. By using the MEIS, XPS, and FT-IR techniques, we were able to analyze the organic thin film of a Ru dye compound ($C_{58}H_{86}O_8N_8S_2Ru$), which consists of one Ru atom and various stoichiometric functional groups. From the MEIS analysis, the absolute surface areal density of Ru atoms (or Ru dye molecules) was determined. The surface areal densities of stoichiometric functional groups in the Ru dye compound were used as references for the calibration of XPS and FT-IR intensities for each functional group. The complementary use of MEIS, XPS, and FT-IR to determine the absolute surface areal density of functional groups on organic and bio thin films will be useful for more reliable development of applications based on organic thin films in areas such as flexible displays, solar cells, organic sensors, biomaterials, and biochips.

In this work, the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was modified with small molecules including mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) and L-lysine for the development of highly sensitive lateral flow (LF) sensors. Uniformly sized AuNps were synthesized by a modified Turkevich-Frens method, showing an average size of $16.7{\pm}2.1nm$. Functionalized AuNPs were then characterized by transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The stable conjugation of AuNPs and antibodies was obtained at pH 7.07 and the antibody concentration of $10{\mu}g/mL$. The functionalized AuNP-based LF sensor exhibited lower detection limit of 10 ng/mL for hepatitis B surface antigens than that of using the bare AuNP-based LF sensor (100 ng/mL).

In this article, the preparation of hydrogels containing conducting polymer@lignin hybrids and their application to sensing materials were demonstrated using diverse techniques. A conducting polymer, polypyrrole (PPy) was polymerized on the surface of lignin and successful formation was analyzed with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Subsequently, PPy@lignin hybrids were mixed with a hydrogel matrix to obtain a conductive hydrogel. The feasibility of using the hydrogel as a sensing material was shown by obtaining reasonable sensing signals using various electrical measurements when adding solvents and solutions to the sensor system. The significance of sensor signals was confirmed with complementary experiments. This study shows that the hydrogel containing the PPy@lignin could be used for sensor applications.

We report the growth of HgCdTe by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE), using (211)B CdTe/Si substrates grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The surface morphology of these films is very smooth with hillock free. The etch pit densities (EPD) and full widths at half maximum (FWHM) of x-ray rocking curves exhibited that the crystalline quality of HgCdTe epilayer on MBE grown CdTe/Si was improved compare to HgCdTe on GaAs substrate. The Hall parameters of undoped HgCdTe layers on CdTe/Si showed n-type behavior with carrier concentration of $8{\times}10^{14}/cm^3$ at 77K. But HgCdTe on GaAs showed p-type conductivity due to in corporation of p-type impurities during GaAs substrate preparation. It is thought that these results are applicable for large area HgCdTe forcal plane arrays of $1024{\times}1024$ format and beyound.

In this study, calibration processes and methods of evaluating the radiometric quality of satellite images from the meteorological payload on the GEO-KOMPSAT-2A were described. MTF(Modulation Transfer Function), SNR(Signal-To-Noise Ratio), NEdT(Noise Equivalent Delta Temperature), and Dynamic Range, which are the major parameters for assessment of data radiometric quality of space-borne visible and infrared sensors, are focused. Key process of the quality check of the satellite data is the comparing the image radiometric performance parameters during the In-Oribit Test with those acquired from the ground tests. Validation plan of the image quality of the GEO-KOMPSAT-2A Meteorological Imager is addressed based on the analyses results of COMS MI data during the COMS In-Orbit Test period
