This paper presents some important research result comparisons for multi function RF modules which use amplifier or frequency multiplier. By using multiplier, multi function module can be realized amply in comparison to multi band module which has separate block for each frequency band. Some com paring analysis among the switching method between separate amplifier and multiplier, the structure using frequency selective reflector, and the module using the defected ground structure. The multi function module which operates as amplifier or multiplier with input frequency is developed and input frequency suppression and output harmonics suppression can be improve d by using defected ground structure.

Among the factors that must be taken into account when using thermal imaging cameras that are expanding their application to various fields, a basic study was conducted focusing on temperature on the effect of solar radiation on the photographed thermal image. Through all experiments, in order to use an image taken with a thermal imaging camera for an object installed or located outdoors, a separate temperature correction according to the size of solar radiation or a separate device to block the effect of solar radiation must be additionally installed. Since the temperature of the same object may vary in the thermal image taken indoors or outdoors, it is necessary to calibrate it through comparison with other temperatures as a reference point. In the case of measuring the temperature of a glossy surface such as metal indoors with a thermal imaging camera, it was confirmed that an environment that can remove the light reflection effect by the glossy surface must be constructed and photographed.

Background: Epidural steroid injection is an established treatment modality for intervertebral disc prolapse to radiculopathy. In cases where two levels of radiculopathy are present, two separate injections are warranted. Herein, we present our experience of management of such cases with a single epidural injection of local anaesthetic, tramadol and methylprednisolone, and table tilt for management of both radiculopathies. Methods: 50 patients of either sex aged between 35-65 years presenting with features of cervical and lumbar radiculopathic pain were included and were subjected to single lumbar epidural injection of local anaesthetic, tramadol and methylprednisolone, in the lateral position. The table was then tilted in the trendelberg position with a tilt of 25 degrees, and patients were maintained for 10 minuted before being turned supine. All patients were administered 3 such injections with an interval of 2 weeks between subsequent injections, and pain relief was assessed with a visual analogue scale. Immediate complications after the block were assessed. Results: Immediate and post procedural complications observed were nausea and vomiting (20%), painful injection site (4%), hypotension (10%) and high block (4%). Pain relief was assessed after the three injections by three grades: 37 (74%) had complete resolution of symptoms; 18% had partial relief and 8% did not benefit from the procedure. Conclusions: This technique may be used as an alternative technique for pain relief in patients with unilateral cervical and lumbar radiculopathies.

PURPOSES: This study aims to analyze the impact of the implementation of a school zone traffic safety improvement project on the number of accidents involving children in these zones. METHODS : To analyze the correlation between school zone traffic safety features of roads in the zone and the number of accidents involving children, we developed an occurrence probability model of traffic accidents involving children by using a binary logistic regression model with SPSS 23.0 software. Two separate models were developed for two zones: interior block and arterial road. RESULTS :The model depicted that in the case of the interior block, shorter sidewalk width, speed bump, and an elevated crosswalk were key factors affecting the occurrence of accidents involving children. In the case of arterial roads exceeding a width of 12 m, the speed limit, roadside barriers, and red paving of road surfaces were found to be the key factors. CONCLUSIONS:The results of this study can serve as the elementary research data to help improve the effectiveness of school zone traffic safety improvement projects and school zone road repair projects in future.

Because of increasing complexity in maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding of four of higher antenna scenario, Partial Interference Cancellation (PIC) group decoding could be the perfect solution to reduce the decoding complexity occurs in ML decoding. In this paper, we separate the symbols the users in the layered basis and find the equivalent channel matrix. Based on the equivalent channel matrix we provide the grouping scheme. In our paper, we construct a block wise transmission technique which will achieve the desired code rate and reduce the complexity and provide less transmission time. Finally we show the different grouping performance.

In this study, we propose an algorithm of the method of recovering quickly find the location of the error encountered during separate operations in the functional structure of complex digital circuits by mimicking the self-healing function of the cell. By the digital circuit was divided by 9 function block unit of function, proposes a method that It can quickly detect and recover the error position. It was the detection and recovery algorithms for the error location in the digital circuit of a complicated structure and could extended the number of function block for the $3{\times}3$ matrix structure on the digital circuit.

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive stereo object tracking system that can be used when the back ground image is complex and the cameras are not fixed . In this method, we used the Block Matching Algorithm to separate the tracking object form the background image and then the optical JTC system is used to obtain the convergence-controlling and pa/tilt-controlling values fro the left and right cameras. the experimental results are found to track the object robustly & adaptively for the object tracking in various background images, and the possibility of real-time implementation of the proposed system by using the optical JTC is also suggested.

In this paper, we present an efficient architecture of a versatile Reed-Solomon (RS) decoder which can be programmed to decode RS codes continuously with my message length k as well as any block length n. This unique feature eliminates the need of inserting zeros for decoding shortened RS codes. Also, the values of the parameters n and k, hence the error-correcting capability t can be altered at every codeword block. The decoder permits 3-step pipelined processing based on the modified Euclid's algorithm (MEA). Since each step can be driven by a separate clock, the decoder can operate just as 2-step pipeline processing by employing the faster clock in step 2 and/or step 3. Also, the decoder can be used even in the case that the input clock is different from the output clock. Each step is designed to have a structure suitable for decoding RS codes with varying block length. A new architecture for the MEA is designed for variable values of the t. The operating length of the shift registers in the MEA block is shortened by one, and it can be varied according to the different values of the t. To maintain the throughput rate with less circuitry, the MEA block uses both the recursive technique and the over-clocking technique. The decoder can decodes codeword received not only in a burst mode, but also in a continuous mode. It can be used in a wide range of applications because of its versatility. The adaptive RS decoder over GF($2^8$) having the error-correcting capability of upto 10 has been designed in VHDL, and successfully synthesized in an FPGA chip.
