In this paper, two types of radar vehicle detectors compatible with currently being used ILD(Inductive Loop Detector) without any modification has been developed. With these vehicle detectors based on FMCW altimeter and Doppler speedometer techniques at 24 GHz, the length and speed of a vehicle can be detected. For signal processing part, we have used DAQ board and programmed with LabView. For compatibility with traffic information network connected with existing ILD's, traffic information has been sent to VDS by using RS-232C standard interface. This development has improved approximately 10% in accuracy in terms of the speed and length information compared with that of the installed ILD in the test field.

This work presents a design and control method for a flexible robot arm operated by a wire drive that follows human gestures. When moving the robot arm to a desired position, the necessary wire moving length is calculated and the motors are rotated accordingly to the length. A robotic arm is composed of a total of two module-formed mechanism similar to real human motion. Two wires are used as a closed loop in one module, and universal joints are attached to each disk to create up, down, left, and right movements. In order to control the motor, the anti-windup PID was applied to limit the sudden change usually caused by accumulated error in the integral control term. In addition, master/slave communication protocol and operation program for linking 6 motors to MYO sensor and IMU sensor output were developed at the same time. This makes it possible to receive the image information of the camera attached to the robot arm and simultaneously send the control command to the robot at high speed.

The shape of orthodontic retraction spring was varied and force system of each case was obtained using numerical analysis and verified with spring tester. The factors for obtaining biomechanically efficient spring under anatomic limitation were suggested as follows. 1. M/F ratio increases and L/D rate decreases as loop height increases. 2. M/F ratio increases and L/D rate decreases as incorporating more wire above minimum bending moment area. 3. M/F ratio decreases and L/D rate decrease as incorporating more wire below minimum bending moment area. 4. M/F ratio can not be greater than spring height no matter how much wire is incorporated at the apex of the loop. 5. Additional moment is necessary to obtain enough M/F ratio for translation under anatomical limitation. 6. Additional moment should be incorporated at every pah of the spring because M/F ratio and L/D rate decreases as horizontal spring length increases. 7. Material, cross section, and shape of the spring influence L/D rate, whereas M/F ratio is influenced by the shape of the spring independent from material and cross section.

In this paper, a broadband planar monopole antenna for multi-band services is proposed. The physical size of the proposed antenna is miniaturized by folding a rectangular loop. And a resonance point in the 3.9 GHz band is reduced by a coupling phenomenon with the central part of the T-shaped patch and the folded rectangular loop. In addition, the T-shaped patch is inserted to the rectangular shaped monopole antenna due to deriving the broadband frequency characteristics. The frequency characteristic is optimized by adjusting the gap and length of the folded rectangular loops and a transverse diameter of the T-shaped patch. The antenna dimensions including the ground plane are $40{\times}60{\times}1.6mm^3$. It is fabricated on the FR-4 substrate(${\epsilon}_r$=4.4) using a microstrip line of $50{\Omega}$ for impedance matching. In the measured result, the bandwidth corresponding to the VSWR of 2:1 is 162 MHz(815~977 MHz) and 2,530 MHz(1.43~3.96 GHz). For analyzing the human effect by the proposed antenna, 1 g and 10 g averaged SARs are simulated and measured. As the simulated results, 1 g-averaged SAR is 1.044 W/kg, and 10 g-averaged SAR is 0.718 W/kg. This result are satisfied by the SAR guidelines which are 1.6 W/kg(1 g-averaged) and 2.0 W/kg(10 g-averaged).

This paper deals with the cancellation performance of loop back interference signal in the case of multihop relay of 16-QAM received signal at the USN radio network. For this, it is necessary to the exchange of information with long distance located station by means of the relay function between the node in the USN environment. In the relay node, the loop-back interference signal which the retransmitting signal is feedback to the receiver side due to the antenna of transmitter and receiver are co-used or very colsely located or using the nonlinear device. Due to this signal, the performance of USN system are degraded which are using the limited resource of frequency and power. For improve this, it is necessary to applying the adaptive signal processing algorithm in order to cancellating the unwanted loop-back interference signal at the frontend of receiver in relaying node, we can get the better system and multi hop performance. In the adaptive signal processing, we considered the 16-QAM signal which has a good spectral efficiency, firstly, than, the QR-Array RLS algorithm was used that has a fairly good convergence property and the solving the finite length problem in the H/W implementation. Finaly, we confirmed that the good elimination performanc was confirmed by computer simulation in the learing cuved and received signal constellation compared to the conventional RLS.

The combustion instability in a model dump combustor with an exhaust nozzle and the possibility of combustion control using a loudspeaker to these instabilities were studied. By changing inlet velocity, combustor length and equivalence ratio, dynamic pressure signals and flame structures were simultaneously taken. Because inlet velocity and combustor length affect the life time of vortex in the dump combustor, the results showed that as the combustor length increased and the inlet velocity decreased, the instability frequency decreased and the maximum power spectral density of the dynamic pressure generally decreased. Also, instability frequency and maximum power spectral density of the dynamic pressure increased with the increment of equivalence ratio. From the data of close-loop control, the optimum time-delay control using a loudspeaker was confirmed to be able to reduce the vortex shedding induced from the mixed acoustic-convective mode combustion instability.

In this research, a model was developed for estimating the queue length of vehicles, based on occupancy time of each vehicle collected by loop detectors which were setup at the upstream of urban street. The estimation model suggestes a method which minimizes architectural effects of the street, such as existence of pedestrian crossing, for future applications to the field. The estimation model suggested in this research was established based on real traffic data collected at up-stream detectors in Kangnam Subway station, Seoul, and the formula of the model is based on Multi-Polynomial equations. Consequence of the experiments showed that the model can adequately and in real-time mode measure length of the queue which were constructed at the 80 to 90 meters away from the upstream detectors. The estimation accuracy of the model was verified in statistical analysis conducted by regressing analysis and test results in real traffic situation.

In this paper, we implement a buffer capable of handling short loops references to statistically lower the miss rate of variable-length instructions stored in the instruction buffer. MAU(Mark Appending Unit) takes the instructions as they are fetched from external memory, performs some initial decode operations and stores the results of the decode in the buffer for reducing multiple decodes when instructions are executed repeatedly such as in a loop. It includes a decision block of whether hit or not for effectively processing branch instructions Each module of the proposed architecture of processing variable-length instruction is described in VHDL structurally and behaviorally and whether it is working well or not is checked on V-System simulator of Model Technology Inc. We synthesized and simulated the architecture using an ASIC Synthesizer tool with 0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ 5-Volt CMOS COMPASS library. Operation speed is up to 140MHz. The architecture includes about 17,000 gates.

The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the effect of design parameter on the mass ratio of a central-driven ejector. The design parameters are the primary nozzle area and distance ratios, diffuser exit-area ratio and mixing-tube length ratio. The experimental setup was an open-loop continuous circulation system which has a movable nozzle ejector, an electric motor-pump, a water tank, a control panel and high-speed camera unit. We calculated the mass ratio using the measured primary and suction-flow rates with the experimental parameter of primary water-flow rate or pressure. The results showed that the mass ratio increased with the primary nozzle distance ratio and mixing tube length ratio, while the mass ratio decreased with the primary nozzle-area ratio and diffuser exit-area ratio.

Acquisition is to detect the presence of the GPS signal. Once the signal is detected, the estimated frequency and code phase are passed to a tracking loop to demodulate the navigation data. In order to detect the weak signal, multiple length of data integration is always needed. In this paper, we present five different acquisition approaches based on circular correlation and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), using coherent as well as non-coherent integration techniques for the multiple length of collected GPS satellite signal. Moreover a general approach of determining the acquisition threshold is introduced based on noise distribution which has been proved effective, and independent of the hardware. In the end of this paper, the processing speed and acquisition gain of each method are illustrated, compared, and analyzed. The results show that coherent approach is much more time consuming compared to noncoherent approaches, and in the case of multiple length of data integration from 2ms to 8ms, the processing times consumed by the fastest non-coherent acquisition method are only 25.87% to 1.52% in a single search, and 34.76% to 1.06% in a global search of those in the coherent acquisition. However, coherent acquisition also demonstrates its better performance in the acquisition gain, and in the case of 8ms of data integration it is 4.23 to 4.41 dB higher than that in the non-coherent approaches. Finally, an applicable scheme of combining coherent and non-coherent acquisition approaches in the development of a real-time Software GPS receiver in the University of Tokyo is provided.
