An investigation was conducted to evaluate both the time required and the time allowed for persons to cross streets. Currently, the local municipality uses a standardized formula to determine the time allotted for 'WALK' signals to function allowing pedestrian traffic to cross thoroughfares. The formula to determine the 'Theoretical Time(in seconds)' is the width of the street(in meter) divided by 1.2m/s. The basis of the denominator is 'normal' walking speed. Initially, 3 locations were chosen to evaluate the time between the appearance of the 'WALK' signal and the appearance of the 'DON'T WALK'. The interval between the two signals was assumed to allow a person to begin crossing the street at the appearance of the 'WALK' signal and terminate their crossing at the appearance of the 'DON'T WALK' signal. Of the 3 locations, 2 locations(elementary?middle schools and general hospital areas), the duration of the 'WALK' signal were not properly set and therefore need more time for those who use these cross walks. Specific details regarding the crossing locations and validity of the standardized formula were also presented and discussed.

It is necessary to develop an LED traffic light lens having a snow removal function capable of clearly providing a traffic signal to the driver even when a traffic light is blurred due to heavy snow and wind in the winter season. This study is focused on the research and development of the traffic light lens in the process of developing the LED traffic light with the snow removal function. In the developed traffic light lens, instead of attaching the film heater, the coated nichrome wire was wound into a coil shape and inserted directly into the groove in the lens. The developed heater system facilitates the insertion of the heating wire with high elasticity into a curved lens and can provide a sufficient heat without deformation of the PC lens. The proposed traffic lights were tested in various external environments and the test results showed that complete snow removal is possible without tunnel effect.

Plant growth and development are coordinately orchestrated by environmental cues and phytohormones. Light acts as a key environmental factor for fundamental plant growth and physiology through photosensory phytochromes and underlying molecular mechanisms. Although phytochromes are known to possess serine/threonine protein kinase activities, whether they trigger a signal transduction pathway via an intracellular protein kinase network remains unknown. In analyses of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK, also called MKK) mutants, the mkk3 mutant has shown both a hypersensitive response in plant hormone gibberellin (GA) and a less sensitive response in red light signaling. Surprisingly, light-induced MAPK activation in wild-type (WT) seedlings and constitutive MAPK phosphorylation in dark-grown mkk3 mutant seedlings have also been found, respectively. Therefore, this study suggests that MKK3 acts in negative regulation in darkness and in light-induced MAPK activation during dark-light transition.

In this study, we applied transition-frequency modulation to prevent the flickering of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in visible light communication (VLC). In the VLC transmitter, rectangular waveforms with transition frequencies of four and two in each bit time were used for the high and low bits, respectively, in the non-return-to-zero data. In the VLC receiver, an RC-high-pass filter (HPF) was used to eliminate the interference of the 120 Hz noise light from the adjacent lighting lamps, and an SR-latch circuit was used to recover the transmitted signal using spikes from the output of the RC-HPF. This configuration is useful for constructing VLC systems that are flicker-free and resistant to adjacent noise light interference.

투과 매트릭스 방법을 이용하여 다중모드 광섬유 출력단에서 빛의 세기 분포를 제어하는 연구를 수행하였다. 공간 빛 변조기를 이용하여 원형으로 배치된 Hadamard 고유모드 위상분포를 실험적으로 구현하고, 네 가지 위상 값 변조 방법을 통하여 다중모드 광섬유의 투과 매트릭스를 실험적으로 도출하였다. 도출한 투과 매트릭스를 기반으로 광섬유에 입사하는 빛에 공간적인 위상 분포를 사전에 적용함으로써 광섬유 출력단의 원하는 위치에 빛을 집속하고자 하였다. 다중모드 광섬유 출력단 코어의 특정 위치에서 주변 배경 신호 대비 최대 359.6배 큰 세기로 빛을 집속할 수 있었으며 다중모드 광섬유 코어 영역 전반에 걸쳐 평균적으로 104.6배 향상된 값으로 빛을 집속할 수 있었다.

In the indirect optical bio-telemetry, high frequency response and low minimum detectable optical power can be achieved by using photodiode with small light receiving area which minimizes junction capacitance. But, on the other hand, S/N ratio becomes low because the optical signal current is small. To solve such a problem, we attach plato-convex lens in front of photo diode, The results of comput- er simulation and experiments suggest promotion of light receiving efficiency and possibility of multi- telemetry system through directivity of convex lens in one room.

PIN photodiode has been used in solid-state detector for x-ray detection as a photosensor of visible light from scintillator. Since the light from CWO is short wavelength having peak at 490nm, the light is absorbed within a very shallow layer near the surface of the photodiode before arriving at the depletion layer and does not contribute to the signal. In designing the PIN photodiode, it is important to make the p-layer as shallow as possible. (omitted)

The simulation of target-scattered echo with the moving sonar platform and target in 3-dimensional ocean environment is essential to validate and evaluate the performance of a sonar system. This paper presents the improved target signal simulation on the basis of the highlight(HL) model and its realtime algorithm. In order to simulate the scattering highlight, the highlight is represented as a directional scatterer. The realtime generation algorithm of the target signal is realized by use of DSP chip, TMS320C40, where the 40 channels are equally separated to form a parallel processing task in 4 processors. The presented realtime-version of target signal simulation can be used as a target signal simulator in the development of ACM(Acoustic Counter Measure) and advanced sonar signal processing techniques.

It is often desirable that manufacturers and users can convert the reference white of display into the preferred color temperature by controlling the color temperature that is one of representative color characteristics of a light source. Accordingly, this paper proposes an efficient method of color compensation for displaying the uncalibrated video signal in PDP-TV and is also shown to be successfully coupled with flexible color temperature conversion based on the signal processing technique.

The gas metal arc welding(GMAW) is regarded as one of the best candidate for welding automation in industrial joining application. It is important to monitor the weld quality for the high performance of weld automation. The measured analog signal is frequency analyzed by digital signal process method. In order to observe the welding phenomena and control welding condition, arc light, voltage, and current are measured at the same time. They are analyzed and compared with arc sound. for these experiments, a power source of constant voltage characteristics was used in the pure metal transfer mode.
