  • The proportion and testing of portable radiation tests, which are limited at the request of the doctor, are gradually increasing only for patients in emergency situations and difficulties in moving. However, as there are many limiting factors compared to fixed devices, this study intends to measure and analyze the distortion of images according to the angle of the detector and the change in dose according to the position of the subject. For distortion experiments using a mobile radiation generator used in Hospital A, the SID was tilted by 110 cm, 14"×17" wireless FPD detector to 0°, -5°, -10°, -15°, -20°, and -35° to measure the change in area. The dose according to the location of the detector was analyzed on average by measuring the central dose at 110 cm of the SID and measuring the dose of 9 locations three times each. The analysis result of distortion by location according to the angle of the detector showed a statistically significant difference (f=58.74, p<0.000). Therefore, it can be seen that the angle of the detector and the tube is closely related to the distortion of the image. The difference in dose by location of the detector increased with respect to the center - pole, and decreased with the + pole. Tests using mobile radiation generators will require careful efforts by clinicians to position patients in the center of the detector for accurate diagnosis, and efforts will be made to level the angle between the mobile radiation generators and the detector.

  • NaI(Tl) scintillation materials are considered to be one of many materials that are used exclusively for γ-ray detection and spectroscopy. The gamma-ray spectrometer is not an easy-to-use device, and the accuracy of the numerical values must be carefully checked based on the rules of the calibration technique. Therefore, accurate information about the detection system and its effectiveness is of greater importance. The purpose of this study is to estimate, using an analytical-numerical formula (ANF), the purely geometric solid angle, geometric efficiency, and total efficiency of a cylindrical NaI(Tl) γ-ray detector with a side-through hole. This type of detector is ideal for scanning fuel rods and pipelines, as well as for performing radio-immunoassays. The study included the calculation of the complex solid angle, in combination with the use of various points like gamma sources, located axially and non-axially inside the through detector side hole, which can be applied in a hypothetical method for calibrating the facility. An extended γ-ray energy range, the detector, source dimensions, "source-to-detector" geometry inside the side-through hole, path lengths of γ-quanta photons crossing the facility, besides the photon average path length inside the detector medium itself, were studied and considered. This study is very important for an expanded future article where the radioactive point source can be replaced by a volume source located inside the side-trough hole of the detector, or by a radioactive pipeline passing through the well. The results provide a good and useful approach to a new generation of detectors that can be used for low-level radiation that needs to be measured efficiently.

  • A low power 6-bit flash ADC that uses an input voltage range detection algorithm is described. An input voltage level detector circuit has been designed to overcome the disadvantages of the flash ADC which consume most of the dynamic power dissipation due to comparators array. In this work, four digital input voltage range detectors are employed and each input voltage range detector generates the specific clock signal only if the input voltage falls between two adjacent reference voltages applied to the detector. The specific clock signal generated by the detector is applied to turn the corresponding latched comparators on and the rest of the comparators off. This ADC consumes 68.82 mW with a single power supply of 1.2V and achieves 4.3 effective number of bits for input frequency up to 1 MHz at 500 MS/s. Therefore it results in 4.6 pJ/step of Figure of Merit (FoM). The chip is fabricated in 0.13-um CMOS process.

  • We have developed an on-line ultrasonic detector to monitor partial discharge in an operating transformer. The ultrasonic sensor has 150[KHz] resonance frequency and contains a pre-amplifier with 60[㏈] gain. The on-line ultrasonic detector has 50~300[KHz] frequency band-pass filter to remove electrical and mechanical noises from the transformer. This detector has an ultrasonic signal discrimination algorithm which discriminates ultrasonic signals due to partial discharge in a transformer. A moving average method of ultrasonic signal number was employed to effectively monitor the increasing trend of the partial discharge. This paper describes an experience of partial discharge detection in a 154[㎸] operating transformer using an ultrasonic detector. With regards to gas analysis in oil, C2H2 gas was produced with a warning level in this transformer We detected ultrasonic signals on the transformer steel wall, and estimated the position of partial discharge. With further inspection, we found carbonized marks due to partial discharge on the supporting bolt which fastens the windings.

  • An iris image pattern positioning with preserved edge detector, ring zone and clock zone, frequency distribution and overlay matching is presented in this paper. Edge detector is required to be powerful and detail. That is proposed by overlaying Canny with LOG (CLOG). The two reference patterns are made from allocating each gray level on the clock zone and ring zone respectively. The normalized target image is overlaid with the clock zone reference pattern and the ring zone pattern to extract overlapped number, and make a matched frequency distribution to look through a symptom and position of human organ and tissue. The iterating experiments result in the ring and clock zone positioning evaluation.

  • 현재 국내의 각 지방자치 단체에서는 지능형 교통체계(ITS)사업이 활발히 시행되고 있다. 이중 많은 지역에서 효율적인 교통관리를 위하여 실시간 신호제어시스템을 구축하여 운영 중에 있으며, 지점검지기인 루프검지기를 설치하여 실시간으로 검지기정보를 수집하고 있다. 검지기에서 수집되어 신호제어에 이용되는 자료는 교통량, 점유시간/비점유시간, 포화도, 지점속도, 대기길이 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 신호제어시스템 검지기 정보가 링크소통상태를 파악하는 정보로 활용될 수 있는지를 분석 평가하였다. 평가를 위하여 대상구간의 통행시간을 실측하여 검지기 수집정보와의 상관관계를 다양하게 평가하였다. 분석 결과 고려된 변수들 중 대기길이가 구간통행시간과 가장 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 그리고 지점속도 자료를 이용하여 구간통행 정보를 추정한 결과, 오차율이 비교적 크게 나타나 실시간 신호제어시스템검지정보를 직접적으로 구간통행정보 추정에 사용하는 것은 적절치 않다고 판단된다. 그러나 COSMOS 검지기는 포화도와 대기길이와 같은 링크의 교통상황에 대해 설명하는 정보를 실시간으로 수집하기 때문에 이를 구간검지기의 보완용으로 사용될 수 있다고 판단된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 신호제어시스템에서 가공되는 포화도와 대기길이정보를 활용하여 정성적 소통정보인 혼잡도를 산출하는 방안을 제시하였다.

  • The electron beam machining provides very high resolution up to nanometer scale, hence the E-Beam writing technology is rapidly growing in MEMS and nano-engineering areas. For E-Beam machining, $2^{nd}$ electron detector is required to see a machined sample at the stage. The $2^{nd}$ electron detector is composed of scintillator and photomultiplier with signal amplifier and high voltage power supplier. Since a photomultiplier tube is an extremely high-sensitivity photodetector, the signal light level to be detected is very low and therefore particular care must be exercised in shielding external light. In this paper, the design methodology of $2^{nd}$ electron detector and the image noise removal method are introduced.

  • 본 연구는 계란 집하장의 선별기에 부착된 파각란 검출기와 혈란 검출기의 정확도를 산란계 주령과 검출기 레벨수준에 따라 검증하여 계란등급판정에서 이용가능성을 제시하고 궁극적으로 유통과정에서 고품질의 계란을 소비자에게 제공하기 위해 실시하였다. 총 36,000개의 계란을 산란계 주령별, 검출기의 레벨별로 축산물품질평가사가 매회 1,000개씩을 무작위 추출하여 선별기를 통과시킨 후, 파각란과 혈란, 그리고 정상란으로 선별된 계란들을 직접 인력 측정하여 정확도를 검사하였다. 주령에 따른 파각란검출기의 결과는 주령이 높은 40주령대 이상의 파각란이 30주령대 보다 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 또한 검출기 레벨이 높아질수록(민감도가 낮아질수록) 파각란 검출율은 떨어졌다. 그러나, 레벨별 차이로 선별한 파각란을 인력으로 확인한 결과 97% 이상의 파각 일치율을 보여 검출기능에 신뢰할 만한 결과를 보였다. 계란 중량별로는 특란, 왕란, 대란 및 중소란의 순서로 파각란 수가 많았다. 동일방법으로 실시한 혈란 검출기의 혈란 출현율은 0.005%로 미미하여 판단근거로는 부족하나, 검출된 계란을 할란하여 인력 측정한 결과 검출기로 선별된 계란은 모두 혈란이어서 100% 일치율을 보였다. 결론적으로 자동 파각란 검출기와 혈란 검출기는 신뢰할 만한 수준이며 계란등급판정에 이용할 수 있으리라 생각된다. 또한 현재 계란등급판정에서 파각율 허용범위는 1등급이 9%이하임을 감안할 때, 만일 파각란 검출기 4레벨을 통과한 계란이라면 소비자에게 도달할 때 파각란이 5.5% 이내로 관리되게 되어 보다 좋은 품질의 계란을 소비자에게 제공할 수 있다고 판단된다.
