A novel fast locking dual-loop integer-N phase locked loop(PLL) with adaptive bandwidth scheme is presented. When the PLL is out-of-lock, bandwidth becomes much wider than 1/10 of channel spacing with the wide bandwidth loop. When the PLL is near in-lock, bandwidth becomes narrower than 1/10 of channel spacing with the narrow bandwidth loop. The proposed PLL is designed based on a $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process with a 3.3V supply voltage. Simulation results show the fast look time of $50{\mu}s$ for an 80MHz frequency jump in a 200KHz channel spacing PLL with almost 14 times wider bandwidth than the channel spacing.

In this study, vortex induced vibrations of a cylinder mounted on a flexible rod are analyzed. This simple configuration represents the key element of new conception bladeless wind turbine (Whitlock 2015). In this study the structure oscillations equation coupled to the wake oscillation equation for this configuration are solved using analytical perturbation method, for the first time. An analytical expression that predicts the lock-in phenomena range of wind speed is derived. The discretized equations of motion are also solved using RKF45 numerical method. The equations of motion are discretized by Galerkin method. Free vibration mode shape of the structure taking into account the discontinuity of the cross section are used as comparison function. Numerical results are compared to the analytical results, and they show a satisfying agreement. The effect of system parameters on the oscillations of structure and wake as well as on the lock-in domain are presented. Moreover, it is shown that the values of wind speed triggering the start and the stop of the lock-in phenomenon, for increasing wind speed are different from those values obtained during the reverse process, i.e., when the wind speed decreases.

In the gyrocompass system, the use of the fiber optic gyroscope(FOG) makes this traditional system considerably attractive because it has strong points in terms of weight, power, warming-up time, and cost. In this paper, a novel digital north-finding method based upon an FOG, which can be applied to the gyrocompass system, is proposed. The analytical model for the earth signal of the FOG is described, and the earth signals passed through lock-in amplifiers are modeled. Additionally, a north-finding algorithm using two lock-in amplifier outputs is developed, and the proposed method is organized by the developed algorithm. Simulation results are included to verify the performance of the proposed method.

This paper presents a fully digital delay locked loop (DLL) that can acquire lock in four clock cycles with a resolution of a 1/4 NAND-delay. The proposed DLL with a multi-dither-free phase detector acquires the initial lock in four clock cycles with 1/2 NAND-delay. Then, it utilizes a multi-dither-free phase detector, a region accumulator, and phase blenders, to improve the resolution to a 1/4 NAND-delay. The region accumulator which continuously steers the control registers and the phase blender, adaptively controls the tracking bandwidth depending on the amount of jitter, and effectively suppresses the dithering jitter. Fabricated in a 65 nm CMOS process, the proposed DLL occupies $0.0432mm^2$, and consumes 3.7 mW from a 1.2-V supply at 2 GHz.

In this paper, the performance of stepped serial search scheme and matched filter scheme for code acqusition in FH / CDMA are evaluated under land mobile radio communication channel environments. And delay lock loop scheme is used as code tracking system. As the results for code acquisition system, it is shown that the performance of stepped searial scheme is superior to matched filter scheme, because system complexity is reduced and system performance is improved by increasing the hopping frequency not to substitute for special hardware. Also, it is shown that its performance is improved under Rayleigh/ Rician fading environments. As the results for code tracking system, it is found that mean hold time is increased due to the increase of the number of lock state and hopping frequency, M.

A fast-lock multiplying delay-locked loop (MDLL)-based digital clock frequency multiplier with an anti-harmonic lock capability is presented. The proposed digital frequency multiplier utilizes a new most-significant bit (MSB)-interval search algorithm to achieve fast-locking time without harmonic lock problems. The proposed digital MDLL frequency multiplier is designed in a 65nm CMOS process, and the operating output frequency range is from 1 GHz to 3 GHz. The digital MDLL provides a programmable fractional-ratio frequency multiplication ratios of N/M, where N = 1, 4, 5, 8, 10 and M = 1, 2, 3, respectively. The proposed MDLL consumes 3.52 mW at 1GHz and achieves a peak-to-peak (p-p) output clock jitter of 14.07 ps.

The Purpose of this study was to seek determinant factors through analysis of 65 snatch skill kinematic factors of Athletics participated in 2001 Asian weightlifting competetion. The conclusion were as follows ; 1. In order to enhance snatch skill, when barbell move on knee position, One should be flex knee joint to 105-110 degree, and In pull motion, One should be move powerful extension of knee and hip joint. 2. In last pull motion, One try to make more lock out motion than extra extention motion of hip joint 3. In order to enhance snatch skill, It is inportant that elevate barbell highly by last pull motion through powerful knee extention, poweful hip flextion and One should be make lock out motion fast in the same time. 4. In order to enhance snatch skill, anterior-posterior movement width of shoulder joint should be small. 5. In order to enhance snatch skill, Hip joint should be move vertically on start and lock out phase, but In pull phase, extension motion of hip joint shoulde be performed more largely and powerfully.

We investigated the quench characteristics of a superconducting element, two superconducting elements in order to increase the current capacity of flux lock type SFCL. The flux-lock type SFCL consisted of the transformer with a primary winding and a secondary winding connected in parallel, and the superconducting element was connected with secondary winding in series. The applied voltage at that time was 160 ${\sqrt{3}}$. We found that the parallel connection between the superconducting elements increased the power capacity and let quench characteristics improve through their mutual linkage.

Presented in this paper is a new experimental technique to measure material properties of lock plate of gas turbine plants by using ultrasonic guided wave. In comparison with the mechanical destructive testings, material characterization of the Inconel x-750 was nondestructively carried out in a more efficient manner to discriminate the change in elastic moduli and the poisson's ratio attributed to the variation of heat treatment condition. The proposed technique shows a satisfactory feasibility via the comparative experiments with the imported lock plate specimens. It is also expected that the guided wave technique can cover a longer and wider range as a new cost-&-time-saving inspection tool due to the interaction with a greater part of specimen, compared to a conventional local point-by-point scheme.

Modem anti-ship missiles employ complex and sophisticated guidance laws to hit the target and enhance their survivability by executing additional maneuvers. However, such maneuvers may cause the target to move out of the missile seeker's Field-Of-View (FOV). Maintaining seeker lock-on during an engagement is a critical factor for missile guidance. In this paper, a guidance law switching logic that maintains seeker lock-on and a simple guidance law that keeps the target look angle of the seeker constant is proposed. The proposed method can be used for the terminal homing phase, and can be switched from any kind of guidance laws if a proper switching condition is satisfied. The minimum and maximum flight time calculation method in consideration of the missile maneuver limit and the FOV of the seeker is also provided.
