A simple analytic model for the planar junctions with multiple foating field limiting rings(FLR) is presented which yields analytic expressions for the breakdown voltage and optimum ring spacings. the normalized potential of each ring is derived as a function of the normalized depletion width and the ring spacing. Based on the assumption that the breakdwon occurs simulataneously at cylindrical junctions of FLR structure where the peak sruface electric fields are equal, the optimum ring spacings are determined. The resutls are in good agreement with the simulations obtained from two dimensional device simulation program MEDICI and with the experimental data reported. The normalized experessions allow a calculation of breakdown voltage and optimum spacing over a broad range of junction depth and background doping levels.

Microphone array is designed to measure the equivalent source height of vehicle noise. The equivalent source position is defined for an arbirary distribution of acoustic sources above a perfectly reflecting plane and a microphone array for its measurement is developed. The normalized errors of the measured equivalent source heights are defined including the effects of background noise, the geometric near field, and source size. Normalized errors of the measured source heights obtained by a nemerical simulation for each parameter lead to optimization of the microphone spacing and to the design of an array which gives the equivalent source height as a function of frequency. The performance of the designed array is verified using the stationary loudspeaker experiments.

Subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) system is considered one of the most effective methods for water application. A 2-year field study was conducted to investigate the effect of SDI systems with various dripline spacing (0.7 or 1.4 m) and position (under furrow or ridge) on soybean (Glycine max L.) production at a sandy-loam soil in Miryang, South Korea. For 2016-2017, average grain yield in SDI irrigated plots, $3.16Mg\;ha^{-1}$, was statistically greater than rainfed irrigated plot ($2.63Mg\;ha^{-1}$). Soybean grain yield averaged $3.25Mg\;ha^{-1}$ for the 0.7 m dripline spacing and $3.07Mg\;ha^{-1}$ for the 1.4 m spacing for the two-year period compared to a rainfed irrigated average of $2.63Mg\;ha^{-1}$ for the same period. Soybean treated with SDI system had significantly greater values of normalized difference vegetation index and stomatal conductance, indicating that soybean plants in SDI plots had greater photosynthetic and stomatal activity due to the higher water availability in soil. Irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) was greatest in the plot of 0.7 m spacing installed under ridge position than any other plot across growing season. Average soil water content in plots with 0.7 m dripline spacing was $0.21m^3\;m^{-3}$ at 5 cm depth layer, which was 45% greater compared to the plots with 1.4 m spacing, even though the gross irrigation amounts were greater in 1.4 m spacing plots. It is concluded that wide dripline spacing (1.4 m) is probably the more economical installation design for SDI system compared to 0.7 m spacing in this study soil because the initial cost for dripline may be reduced with wide spacing design, even though the IWUE is greater in the plot of 0.7 m dripline spacing.

Thermoacoustic power generation by a spiral heater in the Rijke tube was analyzed numerically. In the analysis, variables were normalized by the angular frequency of the sound and the thermal diffusivity of the air. The effect of the heater wire diameter d, the spacing between wires P-d, and the air-current velocity $U_0$, upon the power generation was obtained and discussed. When the spacing is broad enough, the normalized velocity is $U_0{\approx}0.8$ and the diameter is $d{\approx}4$ for the maximum power generation. With decrease of the spacing, however, the power generation increases more than 5 times and becomes maximum around $d{\approx}2$, $P-d{\approx}3$. And the velocity $U_0{\approx}0.8$ for the maximum power generation is almost independent of the wire spacing.

Influence of the grating half-period fluctuation on the normalized coupling coefficient has been studied by an effective index transfer matrix method in quarter wavelength shifted(QWS) DFB lasers. The laser facets are assumed to be perfectly antireflection coated, and the period fluctuation is modeled by two correlated Gaussian random variables. In the presence of the random fluctuation in the grating period, effective normalized coupling coefficient is reduced because the in-phase feedback strength Is weakened. We have shown that the normalized coupling coefficient determined from the side mode spacing is less than the effective coupling coefficient, and the normalized coupling coefficient determined from the mode spacing or spontaneous emission spectrum does not properly represent the feedback strength of the grating.

In this paper, we present an improvement of a closed-form formula for mutual impedance computation. Depending on the center-to-center spacing between two rectangular microstrip patch antennas, the mutual impedance formula is separated into two parts. The formula based on synthetic asymptote and variable separation is utilized for spacings of more than 0.5 ${\lambda}_0$. When the spacing is less than 0.5 ${\lambda}_0$, an approximate formula is proposed to improve the computation for closely spaced elements. Simulation results are compared to computational results of mutual impedances and mutual coupling coefficients as functions of normalized center-to-center spacing in both E- and H-plane coupling configurations. A good agreement between simulation and computation is achieved.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of linear search and bit reversal search algorithms based on the single-dwell serial search for rapid UWB (Ultra Wide Band) signal acquisition in typical indoor wireless channel environments. Simulation results according to bin spacing and frame interval in IEEE 802.15 Task Group 3a UWB indoor wireless channels show that bit reversal search algorithm achieves much smaller normalized mean acquisition time than linear search algorithm. In particular, it is found that the normalized mean acquisition time of the bit reversal search according to the range of searching termination interval closely matches the ideal case. In addition, we observe that the acquisition performance of bit reversal search algorithm becomes much better as bin spacing gets finer.

Local heat transfer characteristics inside a hard disk driver(HDD) are investigated in this study. The investigation is considered between disks co-rotating in a cylindrical enclosure. The gap spacing, rotating speed and head-arm positions are mainly considered to understand the flow and heat transfer in the co-rotating disks. The naphthalene sublimation technique is used to determine local heat/mass transfer coefficients on the rotating disk. Flow patterns inside the co-rotating disks are investigated using a Laser Doppler Anemometer (LDA) and also analyzed numerically. The results show that the heat transfer coefficients on the disk changed little with the gap spacing between disks. Heat transfer rates in the outer region increases with increasing rotating Renolds number, but the values normalized by that on a free rotating disk give a similar pattern for the tested cases. The head-arm inserted between the rotating disks destroys the inner region resulting in enhancement of heat transfer in that region.

A novel concept for the analysis of planar devices with a field limiting ring(FLR) is presented which allows analytic expressions in a normalized form for the potential distributions of FLR structure. Based on the method of image charges the main and ring junctions with identical cylindrical edges are kept to be two different equipotential surfaces. The potential relations between main and ring junction of the FLR structure are compared with 2-dimensional device simulation program. MEDICI. A good accordance is found. Comparisions with experimental data reported for the optimum ring spacing and the relative improvement of the breakdowm voltages in the FLR sturcture show the validity of the concept. The normalized expressions allow a universal application regardless to the junction depths and background doping levels.

In this paper, we analyzed the orthogonal MC DS-CDMA system and no-overlapping MC DS-CDMA System, which were divided by the normalized spacing between adjacent subcarrier over Nakagami-m fading channels. In order to reduce the number of selective paths occurring in the MC system, the Hybrid SCMRC technique was applied, which was compared with the case when the MRC technique was used. As a result of simulations, it was found that the Hybrid SC/MRC method could be replaced by the MRC method and if the number of subcarriers was increased when the given bandwidth was fixed, the interval between subcarriers increased and bigger bandwidths were required. an, the number or subcarriers should be selected in consideration or given bandwidth.
