컴퓨팅, 통신, 그리고 미세 전자기계 기술의 최근 발달로 인하여 무선 센서 네트워크 응용들이 군사용으로부터 물체 추적, 화재 탐지, 그리고 차량 센서 네트워크와 같은 많은 상업적인 분야로 확산되고 있다. 어떤 응용들에서는 WSNs를 구성하고 있는 센서 노드들이 모니터링 지역에서 생산한 버스티한 데이터를 최종 목적지인 싱크 노드까지 제한된 시간 내에 전달해야 하는 경우가 있다. 본 논문에서는 제한된 시간 내에 버스티 패킷을 전달해야 하는 응용에 적합한 BTF-MAC을 제안한다. BTF-MAC 프로토콜은 동기식 듀티 사이클 MAC 프로토콜이며, 슬롯 예약 및 데이터 트래픽에 적응적으로 동작 구간을 확대하는 메커니즘을 가진다. 성능 분석 결과 BTF-MAC 프로토콜이 관련 프로토콜인 DW-MAC이나 SR-MAC 등에 비해 에너지 소모나 전송지연 비교에서 훨씬 우수한 결과를 보여준다.

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are too compact to be resolved by any existing optical telescope facility, making it difficult to understand their structure and the emission processes responsible for their huge energy output. However, variability, one of their characteristic properties, provides a tool to probe the inner regions of AGN. Blazars are the best candidates for such a study, and hence a considerable amount of effort is being made to investigate variability in these sources across the electromagnetic spectrum. Here, using the Mt. Abu infrared observatory (MIRO) blazar monitoring program, we present intra-night, inter-night, and long term aspects of the variability in S5 0716+71, 3C66A, and OJ 287. These stars show significant variability on short (a few tens of mins, to a few hours, to a few days) to long term (months to years) timescales. Based on the light travel time argument, the shortest variability timescales (micro-variability) provide upper limits to the size of the emission region. While S5 0716 shows a very high duty cycle of variability (> 80 %), 3C66A shows a much lower intra day variability (IDV) duty cycle (< 20 %). All three show rapid variations within 2.5 to 3.5 hr, which, perhaps, are generated near the vicinity of black holes. Assuming this, estimates of the masses of the black holes are made at ~10⁹, 8×10⁸, and 2.7×10⁹ M_⨀ for S5 0716+71, 3C66A, and OJ 287, respectively. Multi-wavelength light-curves for the blazar PKS 1510-089 are discussed to infer the emission processes responsible for the recent flaring episodes in this source.

본 논문은 게이티드 링 발진기를 이용한 UWB(Ultar-wideband) 임펄스 생성기 구조에 관한 내용이다. 기존 구조에서 필요로 하던 수 GHz의 발진기 및 PLL 회로를 게이티드 링 발진기로 대체하여 회로의 복잡도와 전력 낭비를 줄였다. 제안하는 방식은 링 발진기의 Head switch에 인가되는 Enable 신호의 길이를 조정함으로써 필요한 구간에만 발진기를 동작시키고 임펄스를 생성함으로써 출력 없이 쉬는 시간 동안 낭비되는 전력을 줄였다. 그리고 카운터를 통한 Pulse shaping 방법을 통해 사이드 로브의 발생을 억제하고 주파수 대역 변경을 위해 중심 주파수 변경시 대역폭 변화를 막을 수 있었다. 설계된 UWB 임펄스 생성기는 디지털 비트를 조정함으로써 6.0GHz에서 8.8GHz의 중심 주파수를 변경할 수 있으며 또한 사용 대역폭을 약 1.5GHz로 유지할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

An experimental study was conducted on the wear and friction responses in sliding tests of a micro-textured surface on laser pattern (LP) steel as reduction gear material in electric guided vehicle. In this research, the friction characteristics of laser pattern steel under different micro texture density conditions were investigated. The friction tests were carried out at sliding speeds of 0.06 m/s to 0.34 m/s and at normal loads of 2 to 10 N. Photolithography method was used to create the dimples for surface texturing purpose. Four different specimens having different dimple densities of 10%, 12.5%, 15%, and 20% were observed respectively. In this research, friction conditions as shown in Stribeck curve were investigated. Furthermore, the microscopic surface was observed using scanning electron microscope. It was found that the dimple density had a significant role on the friction characteristics of laser pattern steel conditioned as reduction gear material in an agricultural vehicle. The duty number showed that the friction condition was hydrodynamic regime. The best performance was obtained from 12.5% dimple density with lowest friction coefficient achieved at 0.018771 under the velocity of 0.34 m/s and 10N load.

This paper describes the design, fabrication and characteristics of a piezoelectric valve using MCA(Multilayer ceramic actuator). The MCA valve, which has the buckling effect, consists of three separate structures; MCA, a valve actuator die and an a seat die. The design of the actuator die was done by FEM modeling and displacement measurement, respectively. The valve seat die with 6 trenches was made, and the actuator die, which is driven to MCA under optimized conditions, was also fabricated. After Si-wafer direct bonding between the seat die and the actuator die, MCA was also anodic bonded to the seat/actuator die structure. PDMS sealing pad was fabricated to minimize a leak-rate. It was also bonded to seat die and SUS package. The MCA valve shows a flow rate of 9.13 sccm at a supplied voltage of 100 V with a 50 % duty cycle, maximum non-linearity was 2.24 % FS and leak rate was $3.03{\times}10^{-8}pa$. $m^3/cm^2$.

This paper presents bisymmetric dual iron core lineal motor stage for heavy-duty high precision applications such as large area micro-grooving machines or high precision roll die machines. In this stage, two iron core linear motors are installed in laterally symmetric way to cancel out the attractive forces. Main focus was given to analyzing the effect of cogging force and moment for two different layouts, which are symmetric and half-pitch shifted ones. Experimental results showed that the symmetric layout is more adequate for high precision applications because of its clear moment cancellation effect. It was also verified that the effect of the residual cogging moment can be suppressed further by increasing the bearing stiffness. One problem of the symmetric layout is added cogging force which hinders smooth motion, but its effect was relatively small compared with that of moment cancellation.

A concern about micro grid connection system is elevated. The reason is that carbon dioxide emission is regionally restricted to prevent the drain of fossil fuel, high oil prices and global warming. The existing photovoltaic DC-DC converter is operated by the full-bridge method. However, the configuration is complicated because a phase shift method is required to raise an efficiency. A photovoltaic DC-DC converter connected with second layered half-bridge converter and boost converter is proposed in this paper. This proposed DC-DC converter is easy to control and has an advantage of reducing the size. Finally, the validity of the proposed converter is verified by the experimentation.

A steering control system based on CAN(Controller Area Network) for autonomous tractor was developed to reduce duty of a central processing computer and to improve performance of steering control in terms of reduced control interval and error. The steering control system consisted of a SCU (Steering Control Unit), an EHPS system, and a potentiometer. The SCU consisted of an MCU (Micro Controller unit), an A/D converter, and a DC-DC converter, and a PID controller was used to control steering angle. The steering control system was communicated with the computer by CAN-bus. Each actuator and implement was connected to a multi-function board interfacing with the computer through a USB cable. Without CAN, control interval of the autonomous tractor was 1.5 seconds. When the CAN-based steering control system was combined with the autonomous tractor, however, control interval of the integrated system was reduced to those less than 0.05 seconds. When the autonomous tractor was operated with 1.5-s and 0.05-s control cycles at a 0.63-m/s travelling speed, the trajectories were close to straight lines for both of the control cycles. For a 1.34-m/s traveling speed, tractor trajectory was close to sine wave with a 1.5-s control cycle, but was straight line with a 0.05-s control cycle.
