In this study, the accuracy of three dimensional location was improved by self calibration bundle method with additional parameter, which is to correct systematic error through detection and elimination of the gross error from updated reference variance for observation values in photogram-metry. In this study, with the result of comparing accuracy of each method, correcting systematic error is more effective after gross error detection and when observation values are contained more than two gross error the point with maximum correlation value is detected by masking effect of least square adjustment.

Complex permittivity of dry sand is measured by using an open-ended coaxial probe, which was self-designed and manufactured. As a simple calibration scheme of the probe, the phase difference between the measured and the calculated reflection coefficients of pure water is subtracted from the phase of the measured reflection coefficient for dry sand. And then the complex permittivity of dry sand is reconstructed by applying its measured reflection coefficient into an improved imaginary transmission-line model. The accuracy of our measurement scheme is verified by showing that its reconstructed complex permittivity approaches the precise value of dry sand.

In this paper, we propose a near-field range estimation method for a uniform linear array that can calibrate bearing estimation error which give a bad influence on a range estimation process. When a range is fixed, the bearing error is calibrated to maximize the beamformer output by the proposed algorithm based on the gradient method. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can compensate the bearing error which is less than the mainlobe beamwidth so that reduce the range estimation error as similar as the case of no bearing error.

Modern integrated circuits (ICs) are becoming an integrated parts of analog, digital, and radio frequency (RF) circuits. Testing these RF circuits on a chip is an important task, not only for fabrication quality control but also for tuning RF circuit elements to fit multi-standard wireless systems. In this paper, RF test circuits suitable for embedded testing are introduced: RF power detectors, power control circuits, directional couplers, and six-port reflectometers. Various types of embedded RF power detectors are reviewed. The conventional approach and our approach for the RF power control circuits are compared. Also, embedded tunable active directional couplers are presented. Then, six-port reflectometers for embedded RF testing are introduced including a 77-GHz six-port reflectometer circuit in a 130 nm process. This circuit demonstrates successful calibrated reflection coefficient simulation results for 37 well distributed samples in a Smith chart. The details including the theory, calibration, circuit design techniques, and simulations of the 77-GHz six-port reflectometer are presented in this paper.

A testing inspection is one of the important in the industry, owing to determine the reliability and directivity of testing inspection results. Therefore, the quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) work which performed by personnel not directly in the inventory compilation development, in testing inspection must be thoroughly considered. Some agencies for environmental test inspection, they sometimes misunderstood that the QA/QC was ended with proficiency testing performance and on-site assessment by a director. Thus, results were often calculated without QA/QC work by self manual when conducting test. The objective of this study was to improve reliability of testing and inspection agency through the QA/QC case study which basically performed to raising reliability of testing and inspection agency. In this study, it increased reliability of result by verifying calibration curve (IC, ICV, CCV), blank, accuracy (LCS, MS) and precision as QA/QC performance, while performing investigation of soil contamination in mining areas. This study suggests that reliability establishing method of test result and management method of analysis process, through the QA/QC instance of testing agency.

Purpose: By investigating oral health knowledge and oral health behavior of orthodontic patients, we intend to identify factors that affect their satisfaction with orthodontic treatment and use them as fundamental data for improving the satisfaction of orthodontic patients. Methods: Busan from February 1st to March 31st, 2021. Dental disease in Gyeongsangnam-do. A self-contained survey was conducted on patients undergoing orthodontic treatment in the clinic. A total of 185 copies were analyzed. Using the lBM SPSS Statistics 21 program, multiple regression analysis was conducted by setting oral health knowledge and oral health behavior as independent variables to determine factors affecting remedial treatment satisfaction. Results: The satisfaction level of orthodontic treatment was 1.53 points higher than 'understanding the cost of orthodontic treatment' and 'smooth relationship with related staff while receiving orthodontic treatment' was low at 1.23. The average calibration satisfaction was 1.34. Factors affecting remedial treatment satisfaction were shown in the order of oral health behavior (p<0.000), educational experience (p<0.010), gender (p<0.015) and oral health knowledge (p<0.020). Conclusions: Through the above results, it is necessary to develop programs to improve oral health knowledge through customized individual oral health education by enhancing individual oral health behaviors of individuals.

In this study, the daily-based reference evapotranspiration was evaluated with Hargreaves equation at the 23 meteorological stations for the time period of 1997-2006. The Hargreaves coefficient was self-calibrated to give the best fit with Penman-Monteith evapotranspiration, being regarded as a reference. On the basis of the estimated parameter set, a generalized regression was conducted to estimate the Hargreaves evapotranspiration by just using temperature data. This study will contribute to water resources planning, irrigation schedule, and environmental management.

This paper proposes a CMOS readout circuit for uncooled micro-bolometer arrays adopting a four-point step calibration technique. The proposed readout circuit employing an 11b analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a 7b digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and an automatic gain control circuit (AGC) extracts minute infrared (IR) signals from the large output signals of uncooled micro-bolometer arrays including DC bias currents, inter-pixel process variations, and self-heating effects. Die area and Power consumption of the ADC are minimized with merged-capacitor switching (MCS) technique adopted. The current mirror with high linearity is proposed at the output stage of the DAC to calibrate inter-pixel process variations and self-heating effects. The prototype is fabricated on a double-poly double-metal 1.2 um CMOS process and the measured power consumption is 110 ㎽ from a 4.5 V supply. The measured differential nonlinearity (DNL) and integrat nonlinearity (INL) of the 11b ADC show $\pm$0.9 LSB and $\pm$1.8 LSB, while the DNL and INL of the 7b DAC show $\pm$0.1 LSB and $\pm$0.1 LSB.

A microfluidic system has been developed using biomaterial for the measurement of cupric ion concentration. The cell-membrane-mimicking bilayer lipid membrane(BLM)-coated silver electrode was used for the sensing of cupric ion concentration. The silver-supported BLM could increase its stability. A silver-supported bilayer lipid membrane(s-BLM) was easily obtained using its self-assembling characteristics by immersing silver wire into lipid(phosphatidylcholine; PC) solution and then dipping into aqueous KCl solution. These s-BLMs were used to determine the relationship between $Cu^{2+}$ concentration and current crossing s-BLM. Their relationship showed high linearity and reproducibility. The calibration curve was constructed to express the relationship between $Cu^{2+}$ concentration and current in the $Cu^{2+}$ concentration range of 10 and $130{\mu}M$. This calibration curve was used to measure $Cu^{2+}$ concentration in an unknown sample. Microfluidic system with s-BLM was made of PDMS(polydimethyl siloxane) using typical soft photolithography and molding technique. This integrated system has various functions such as activation of the silver surface without cutting silver wire, coating of BLM on silver surface, injection of KCl buffer solution, injection of $Cu^{2+}$ sample and measurement of $Cu^{2+}$ concentration in the sample.
