For any pattern matching based algorithm in WLAN environment, the characteristics of signal to noise ratio(SNR) to multiple access points(APs) are utilized to establish database in the training phase, and in the estimation phase, the actual two dimensional coordinates of mobile unit(MU) are estimated based on the comparison between the new recorded SNR and fingerprints stored in database. The system that uses the artificial neural network(ANN) falls in a local minima when it learns many nonlinear data, and its classification accuracy ratio becomes low. To make up for this risk, the SVM/ANN hybrid algorithm is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm is the method that ANN learns selectively after clustering the SNR data by SVM, then more improved performance estimation can be obtained than using ANN only and The proposed algorithm can make the higher classification accuracy by decreasing the nonlinearity of the massive data during the training procedure. Experimental results indicate that the proposed SVM/ANN hybrid algorithm generally outperforms ANN algorithm.

This letter presents a compact dual-mode tri-band bandpass filter by using a short-circuited stub-loaded stepped-impedance resonator (SIR) and a short-circuited stub-loaded uniform impedance resonator. Also, a hairpin SIR geometry is introduced to miniature the size of this filter while maintaining excellent performance. The use of a short-circuited stub at the central point of the hairpin SIR can generate two resonant modes in two passbands. Its equivalent circuit structure is analyzed by using the even-odd mode theory. For demonstration purposes, a tri-band filter for the applications of the Global Positioning System at 1.57 GHz, Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access at 3.5 GHz, and wireless local area networks at 5.2 GHz is designed, fabricated, and measured.

The distribution of tags is an important factor that affects the performance of radio-frequency identification (RFID). To study RFID performance, it is necessary to obtain RFID tags' coordinates. However, the positioning method of RFID technology has large errors, and is easily affected by the environment. Therefore, a new method using optical measurement is proposed to achieve RFID performance analysis. First, due to the possibility of blurring during image acquisition, the paper derives a new image prior to removing blurring. A nonlocal means-based method for image deconvolution is proposed. Experimental results show that the PSNR and SSIM indicators of our algorithm are better than those of a learning deep convolutional neural network and fast total variation. Second, an RFID dynamic testing system based on photoelectric sensing technology is designed. The reading distance of RFID and the three-dimensional coordinates of the tags are obtained. Finally, deep learning is used to model the RFID reading distance and tag distribution. The error is 3.02%, which is better than other algorithms such as a particle-swarm optimization back-propagation neural network, an extreme learning machine, and a deep neural network. The paper proposes the use of optical methods to measure and collect RFID data, and to analyze and predict RFID performance. This provides a new method for testing RFID performance.

Digital halftoning is the technique to obtain a bilevel-toned image from continuous-toned image. Among halftoning methods, the error diffusion method gives better subjective quality than other halftoning ones. But it also makes edges of objects blurred. To overcome the defect, we proposes the modified error diffusion to enhance the edges using the property that human vision perceives the local average luminance and doesn't perceive a little variation of the spatial variation. The proposed method computes a spatialactivity, which is the difference between a pixel luminance and the average of its $3{\times}3$ neighborhood pixels' Iuminance weighted according to the spatial positioning. The system also usesof edge enhancement (IEE), which is computed from the normalized spatial activitymultiplied by the average luminance. The IEE is added to the quantizer's input pixel and feeds into the halftoning quantizer. The quantizer produces the halftone image having the enhanced edge. The computer experimental results show that the proposed method produces clearer bilevel-toned images than conventional methodsand the edge of objects is preserved well. Also the performance of the preposed method is improved, compared with that of the conventional method by measuring the edge correlation and the local average accordance at some ranges of viewing distance.

This paper proposes a new time synchronization scheme for the Automatic Identification System(AIS). The proposed scheme utilizes a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator(TCXO) as a local reference clock, and consists of a Digitally Controlled Oscillator(DCO), a divider, a phase comparator, and register blocks. Primary time reference is IPPS from GPS receiver that is synchronized to Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). And if GPS is unavailable, other station's signal is utilized as secondary time reference. The phase comparator measures time difference between the 1PPS and the generated transmit clock. The measured time difference is compensated by controlling the DCO and the transmit clock is synchronized to the Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). The synchronized transmit clock(9600Hz) is divided into the transmitting time slot(37.5Hz). The proposed scheme is tested in an experimental AIS transponder set. The experimental result shows that the proposed module satisfies the timing specification of the AIS technical standard, ITU-R M.1371-1.

Astronomic surveying has been regarded as an important method for absolute positioning of geodetic datum in each countries under the local geodetic reference system. The purposes of this study are to determine astrogeodetic geoidal heights referred to Bessel ellipsoid and to determine deflection of the vertical and geoidal heights referred to GRS80 of World Geodetic System by astronomic surveying data which have been surveyed after 1970 in Korea. The results show that $\xi$ component of the deflection of the vertical distribute from -5.725" to 8.005" and $\eta$ component distribute from -14.917" to 6.2" and astrogeodrtic geoidal heights distribute from 23 m to 27 m in the study area. Also, we could see that GRS80 was more optimal ellipsoid than Bessel 1841 ellipsoid to Korea through comparing both astrogeotic geoidal heights referred to GRS80 and Bessel 1841 ellipsoid.

After fifteen years of development, Magnetic Resonance (MR) technology for human imaging and spectroscopy is reaching a refined state with FDA approved 3T clinical products from Siemens, GE, and Philips. Broker has cleared CE approval with a 4T system. Varian supports a 4T system platform as well. Shielded magnets are standard at 3T from GE, Oxford, Magnex, and IGC. A shielded 4T whole body magnet is available from Oxford. Stronger switched gradients and dynamic shim coils, desired at any field, areespecially useful at higher static magnetic fields B0. In addition to the higher currents required for higher resolution slice or volume selection afforded by higher SNR, whole body gradient coils will be driven at increasing slew rates to meet the needs of new cardiac applications and other requirements. For example 3T and 4T systems are now being equipped with 2kV, 500A gradient coils and amplifiers capable of generating 4G/cm in 200msec, over a 67+/-cm bore diameter. High field EPI applications require oscillation rates at 1 kHz and higher. To achieve a benchmark 0.2 ppm shim over a 30cm sphere in a high field magnet, at least four stages of shimming need to be considered. 1) A good high field magnet will be built to a homogeneity spec. falling in the range of 100 to 150 ppm over this 30cm spherical "sweet spot" 2) Most modern high field magnets will also have superconducting shim coils capable of finding 1.5 ppm by their adjustment during system installation. 3) Passive ferro-magnetic shimming combined with 4) active, high order room temperature shim coils (as many as five orders are now being recommended) will accomplish 0.2 ppm over the 30cm sphere, and 0.1 ppm over a human brain in even the highest field magnets for human studies. Safety concerns for strong, fast gradients at any B0 field include acoustic noise and peripheral nerve stimulation. One or more of the mechanical decoupling methods may lead to quieter gradients. Patient positioning relative to asymmetric or short gradient coils may limit peripheral nerve stimulation at higher slew rates. Gradient designs combining a short coil for local speed and strength with a longer coil for coverage are being developed for 3T systems. Local gradients give another approach to maximizing performance over a limited region while keeping within the physiologically imposed dB0/dt performance limits.

In this paper, a microstrip-fed multiband monopole antenna for GPS(Global positioning system)/WiMAX(:Worldwide interoperability for microwave access)/WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) for applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a microstrip-fed structure, and composed of two rectangular double rings and L strips pair and then designed in order to get triple band characteristics. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS). The proposed antenna is made of $27.0{\times}54.0{\times}1.0mm3$ and is fabricated on the permittivity 4.4 FR-4 substrate. The experiment results shown that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 300 MHz (1.325~1.625 GHz), 400 MHz (2.275~2.675 GHz), and 600 MHz (3.15~3.75 GHz) covering the GPS/WiMAX/WLAN bands. Also, the proposed antenna measured gain and radiation patterns characteristics for required operating bands.
