This study investigated the effects of thawing conditions on physiological activities and quality of peeled garlic. Peeled frozen garlic was analyzed after thawing at low temperature ($4^{\circ}C$), room temperature ($20^{\circ}C$), tap water ($20^{\circ}C$), radio frequency of 27.12 MHz, and 2.45 GHz in a microwave. As a result, the time required to thaw garlic to $0^{\circ}C$ by various thawing methods was shortest at2.45 GHz in a microwave, followed by $20^{\circ}C$ tap water, radio frequency of 27.12 MHz, $20^{\circ}C$, and $4^{\circ}C$. Microwave thawing was faster than other methods, but it resulted in significant non-uniformity of heating. The hardness of peeled garlic significantly decreased upon freeze-thawing, whereas it showed improved hardness upon radio-frequency thawing. Total color difference in garlic increased upon freeze-thawing, and it was not improved by various thawing methods. Antioxidant activities were determined for DPPH radical scavenging ability, SOD-like activity, and reducing power. Total phenolic compounds and flavonoids in garlic extract were measured as $3.222{\pm}0.214{\mu}g$ GAE/g and $0.149{\pm}0.03{\mu}g$ QE/g, respectively. The content of total phenolic compounds was significantly reduced by 2.45 GHz microwave thawing ($1.90{\pm}0.02{\mu}g$ GAE/g); however, flavonoid contents were slightly reduced under freezing and thawing conditions. The DPPH radical scavenging ability of garlic extracts was not affected by thawing methods; however, SOD-like activity and reducing power were slightly reduced by freeze-thawing. These results indicate that physiological activities were not improved by radio-frequency thawing; however, thawing time and maintain hardness were reduced compared with conventional thawing methods.

This paper describes the parasitic capacitance modeling according to the coil structure, section bobbin and winding method for hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance capable of the EMI attenuation of broad bands from lower frequency to higher frequency applied in the EMI attenuation filter of LED-TV SMPS. Especially, the hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance($C_p$) proposed in this paper can reduces the parasitic capacitance($C_p$) by adopting the winding methods of rectangular copper wire, compared to the conventional common mode choke coil with the winding method of automatic type. The first resonant frequency of the proposed hybrid choke coil has a tendency to increase as the parasitic capacitance is smaller and its impedance characteristics, especially in the high frequency bands, improves as the first resonant frequency increases. In the future, the proposed hybrid choke coil with reduced parasitic capacitance shows it can be actually utilized in not only LED-TV SMPS but also various applications such as LED Lighting, Note-PC Adapter, and so forth.

An experimental investigation of the characteristic of non-premixed lifted flames with nozzle hole-tone of high-frequency has been performed. Before the fuel was supplied to nozzle, the fuel was supplied through a burner cavity which was located under the nozzle. The fuel passed through the excitation cavity under the influence of the high-frequency affects the lifted flame characteristics. The measurements were performed in flow range that occurs lifted flame and blow out. When the high-frequency is generated from burner cavity, the lifted length became shorter, and noise reduced comparing to unexcitation case. Additionally, operating flow range was increased and diameter of flame base became smaller with high-frequency effect. Through this experiments, it's ascertained that the high-frequency excitation can be adopted with effective method for flame stability and noise reduction.

The main disadvantage of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is its sensitivity to carrier frequency offset and timing offset. This paper proposes a simple way of improving the performance of the integer frequency offset (IFO) estimator in OFDM-based digital video broadcasting (DVB) system. By modifying the conventional maximum likelihood (ML) estimator to have multi-stage estimation strategy, IFO estimator is derived. Simulations indicate that the proposed IFO estimator works robustly with reduced computational burden when compared to ML estimator.

The change of the discharge characteristics of the high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps is investigated over a power source frequency range of 60 Hz to 30, 000 Hz. As the frequency increases, the light and electrical characteristics of the HPS lamps are improved since the re-ignition is not needed due to the constant electron density, and the cathode fall is reduced. But at the certain frequency range, the arc instability called acoustic resonance occurs, and the arc tube is damaged. Regarding these characteristics and the kind of the illuminating system, a proper frequency is selected to operate the HPS lamps. And a new measuring system using a computer and the storage-scope is developed to avoid the error of the ordinary gauges at high frequency power.

For MHz-class high frequency inverter in wireless power transfer applications, the voltage/current surges can be occurred in power stage when driving on the inverter. And also, the high-frequency oscillations can be produced at a high switching frequency due to the parasitic elements. The voltage and current stresses of the switching devices lead to the switching losses. The efficiency of the high frequency inverter will be reduced. And the inverter circuit with the sudden voltage and current fluctuations also generates the noise such as the EMI. Zero voltage, zero current switching technique can be used to reduce the switching loss and the noise. The high power density and high efficiency can be obtained. In this paper, the high-frequency inverter for short-range wireless power transfer applications was discussed. The feasible inverter circuit is analyzed in the circuit operating characteristics and the results are verified by the simulation.

As a vehicle speed increases, more vibration energy is transmitted from chassis to a driver. Current isolation system for the driver's seat by damping control can reduce the transmitted vibration energy near resonance area. But in higher frequency region than natural frequency multiplied by $\sqrt{2}$, the vibration energy transmitted to the driver has a tendency to be increased. Therefore, the method by natural frequency reduction of the system is preferred to increase the effectiveness of the anti-vibration. However, the natural frequency could not be freely reduced due to the nature of the isolation system structure. A new passive suspension system to reduce the natural frequency is proposed. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show better vibration attenuation compared with the current isolation system.

The resonant frequency modulation of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ meander lines has been investigated as functions of optical pulse energy and temperature by using a network analyzer. The frequency-domain measurements are performed by controlling both the resonant frequency and the frequency width. The meander lines, configured in a microstrip geometry, are illuminated by optical pulses from an actively mode-locked Nd:YAG laser. The variation of the resonant frequency shows a quadratic dependence on the reduced optical pulse energy $P/P_c$, where $P_c$ is defined as the critical optical pulse energy at which resonance signal has disappeared. As for the dependence on temperature, the results are in good agreement with the previously reported data.

We compared two typical ensemble time scale algorithms; AT1 and Kalman filter. Four commercial atomic clocks composed of two hydrogen masers and two cesium atomic clocks provided measurement data to the algorithms. The allocation of relative weights to the clocks is important to generate a stable ensemble time. A 30 day-average-weight model, which was obtained from the average Allan variance of each clock, was applied to the AT1 algorithm. For the reduced Kalman filter (Kred) algorithm, we gave the same weights to the two hydrogen masers. We also compared the frequency stabilities of the outcome from the algorithms when the frequency offsets and/or the frequency drift offsets estimated by the algorithms were corrected or not corrected by the KRISS-made primary frequency standard, KRISS-F1. We found that the Kred algorithm is more effective to generate a stable ensemble time scale in the long-term, and the algorithm also generates much enhanced short-term stability when the frequency offset is used for the calculation of the Allan deviation instead of the phase offset.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to compare the similarities among Donguibogam(DO), Uihagibmun(UI), and Gyeongagjeonseo(GY) in order to examine whether the medical thoughts embedded in the texts can be compared in a quantitative way. Methods : Under an empirical assumption that medical thoughts can be reduced to the frequency of major key words within the text, we selected the fourteen words of the four categories that are commonly used to describe physiology and pathology in Korean medicine as key words. And the frequency of these key words was measured and compared with each other in the three important medical texts in Korea. Results : As a result of quantitative analysis based on ${\chi}^2$ statistic, the key words in the books were distributed most heterogeneously in DO and distributed most homogeneously in UI. In comparison of the similarity analyzed by the same method, DO and UI were significantly more similar than those of DO and UI. The results of the word frequency pattern and the similarities of the book contents(CBDF) show that DO is influenced by UI, and the differences between standardized residuals and homogeneity tells us that internal context of both books are constructed differently. Conclusions : These results support the results of traditional research by experts. With the above, we were able to confirm that medical thoughts can be reduced to the frequency of major key words within the text, and compared through the frequency of such key words.
