본 논문에서는 생체 신호 처리를 위한 14비트 이상의 고 해상도를 갖는 A/D 변환기 설계를 위하여 공급 전압이 1.8V인 CMOS 델타-시그마 변조기를 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 4차 델타 시그마 변환기는 타임 인터리빙 기술을 이용하여 회로를 시간에 따라 재구성해 연산증폭기를 재사용하는 구조를 통해 차수에 따라 4개의 연산증폭기가 필요한 회로를 2개의 연산증폭기 만으로 구동 시켰다. 또한 스위치드 커패시터 적분기 구조상의 특징인 샘플링 시간과 적분 시간의 동작에 따라 샘플링 커패시터의 크기를 조절함으로서 저항 성분으로부터 발생하는 열잡음인 KT/C 잡음을 감소시킬 수 있는 회로를 제안하였다. 제안한 델타-시그마 변조기는 Magna 0.18um CMOS n-well 1 폴리 6메탈 공정을 이용하여 제작되었으며 제작된 칩의 측정 결과 전력소모는 1.8V 전원 전압에서 $828{\mu}W$이고 샘플링 및 입력 주파수가 256KHz, 1KHz일 때 최대 SNDR은 75.7dB, DR은 81.3dB로 측정되었다. KT/C 잡음 저감 회로가 적용되지 않은 회로에서는 최대 SNDR이 72.1dB 로 측정되어 KT/C 잡음 저감 회로가 적용되었을 때 약 3dB정도의 성능 향상을 나타내었다. 회로의 FOM은 41pJ/step과 142dB로 계산되었다.

본 논문에서는 주파수 옵셋, 도플러 확산, 오실레이터 페이즈 노이즈에 의한 간섭현상, 즉 왜곡에 관해서 정리하고 다양한 채널환경에서 이에 따른 OFDM 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다. 이러한 왜곡들은 마치 부가성 백색 잡음처럼 각 부반송파간의 간섭을 유발하기 때문에 OFDM 시스템의 성능은 떨어지게 된다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 OFDM 방식을 적용한 이동통신 시스템에서의 왜곡에 따른 성능분석을 위하여 다양한 채널환경 하에서 지정된 SNR을 유지하기 위한 주파수 옵셋과 도플러 주파수 한계치, 오실레이터 페이즈 노이즈에 의한 시스템의 성능저하 특성들을 분석하였다.

Electric machines for office automation device such as printer and scanner have been required the low noise and vibration performance. Many researches about the low noise and vibration of polygon mirror scanner motor have been also progressed. The noise and vibration of polygon mirror scanner motor can be classified by aerodynamic, structural and electromagnetic. Electromagnetic noise and vibration can be occurred by high cogging torque and nonsinusoidal back EMF. To improve the cogging torque and back EMF characteristic, we apply unequal air-gap. To analyse characteristic of a polygon mirror scanner motor, two dimensional finite element method is used. To minimize the cogging torque of a polygon mirror motor, Kriging based on latin hypercube sampling (LHS) is utilized. As a result, the cogging torque and torque ripple improved while maintaining the back EMF and average torque.

Such method had the limit which did not evaluated characteristic of sound of occurrence and the place of origin. This study was peformed to establish an engineering remedy of the work-place noise. The subject was a vibration control process of the place of business in Pusan. A simulation program applied for an engineering improvement of the work-place noise. The results were as follows: 1. An noise occurrence level of the work-place before improvement was $88^{\sim}97dB(A)$, We applied an improvement method to be established and were expected to $80^{\sim}l19dB(A)$, 2. The level of the noise-distribution to appear in the place of origin of the work-place before improvement was $90^{\sim}93dB(A)$ but, We executed the simulation after applied an engineering remedy and predicted $80^{\sim}85dB(A)$.

3차원 비디오 전송에 있어서, 렌더링에 사용되는 깊이 맵은 압축 효율을 위하여 일반적으로 낮은 해상도로 다운샘플링 되어 전송된다. 이때, 다운샘플링 과정에서 발생하는 오류는 디코딩 후의 적절한 업샘플링 기법을 통하여 효과적으로 복구할 수 있다. 하지만 기존의 연구들은 이러한 오류를 줄이기 위하여 여러 업샘플링 기법에 대해서만 초점이 맞춰져 있었다. 본 논문에서는 사람의 인지적인 화질을 보다 제고시키기 위하여 동적인 객체와 정적인 배경에 서로 다른 다운샘플링 비율을 적용시키는 새로운 하이브리드 깊이 맵 다운샘플링 기법을 제안한다. 실험적인 결과는 제안하는 방법이 시각적인 품질과 PSNR 측면에서의 이득이 있음을 보여준다. 또한 제안하는 방법은 여러 업샘플링 기법들과 호환이 가능하다.

This paper provides the design techniques of a successive approximation register (SAR) type 12b analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for distributed maximum power point tracking (DMPPT) control in a photovoltaic system. Both a top-plate sampling technique and a $V_{CM}$-based switching technique are applied to the 12b capacitor digital-to-analog converter (CDAC). With these techniques, we can implement a 12b SAR ADC with a 10b capacitor array digital-to-analog converter (DAC). To enhance the accuracy of the ADC, a single-to-differential converted DAC is exploited with the dual sampling technique during top-plate sampling. Simulation results show that the proposed ADC can achieve a signal-to-noise plus distortion ratio (SNDR) of 70.8dB, a spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) of 83.3dB and an effective number of bits (ENOB) of 11.5b with bipolar CMOS LDMOD (BCDMOS) $0.35{\mu}m$ technology. Total power consumption is 115uW under a supply voltage of 3.3V at a sampling frequency of 1.25MHz. And the figure of merit (FoM) is 32.68fJ/conversion-step.

Personal and static sampling for formaldehyde, wood dust and noise monitoring, in accordance to the equipment running on the day, were carried out throughout wood panel manufacturing process. Even though the exposure level of formaldehyde and wood dust were below than exposure criteria, but the personal protective equipment(PPE) for those should be worn to everyone in the process because of its potential characteristics like carcinogenicity. Also a few local air extraction system above the cutting, grinding sections and organic blending room should be required. Most of the exposures of noise exposure were exceeded permitted exposure criteria, in case of Hopper operators, exposed to maximally 94dB(A) as LAeq 8hr, therefore active controls like PPE, monitoring, isolation etc. are necessary. The main sources of noise were caused on compressed air of the machinery, radio sound and operation noise like running machines, conveying, cutting, sawing, moving vehicles, storing and so on. For the comparison of control criteria in each country, the permitted exposure standards for above hazardous materials and noise in Korea, ACGIH and Australia were discussed. We have recognized that the Korean criteria should be discussed urgently to give the right information to employee and modified, if it is necessary.

The location template matching (LTM) method is a technique of identifying an impact location on a structure, and is often applied to structural health monitoring and large scale human-computer interface (HCI) systems. The LTM method utilizes a certain measure of similarity between two time signals. The correlation coefficient is most widely used for this purpose, and the group delay based method is recently proposed to improve the accuracy of finding the best matching pair of signals. In practice, one of key essential consideration for implementing the LTM method is to guarantee that a sufficient number of vibration modes must be contained in the measured signal, and yet the lower sampling rate is needed for a real-time implementation. In this paper, the properties of correlation coefficient and group delay with respect to the number of vibration modes are investigated. A few important results are obtained through extensive computer simulations and experiments. If the number of vibration modes contained in the measured signal is more than four it is sufficient for the correlation based LTM method, while the group delay based LTM method requires smaller number of vibration modes.

A digital readout IC for capacitive sensors is presented. Digital capacitance readout circuits suffer from static capacitance of sensors, especially single-ended sensors, and require large passive elements to cancel such DC offset signal. For this reason, to maximize a dynamic range with a small die area, the proposed circuit features digital filters having a coarse and fine compensation steps. Moreover, by employing switched-capacitor circuit for the front-end, correlated double sampling (CDS) technique can be adopted to minimize low-frequency device noise. The proposed circuit targeted 8-kHz signal bandwidth and oversampling ratio (OSR) of 64, thus a $3^{rd}$-order ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ modulator operating at 1 MH was used for pulse-density-modulated (PDM) output. The proposed IC was designed in a 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS mixed-mode process, and occupied $0.86{\times}1.33mm^2$. The measurement results shows suppressed DC power under about -30 dBFS with minimized device flicker noise.
