The analytical conditions including surface state, moisture effect, and device condition were investigated for applying Short Wave Infrared(SWIR) spectroscopy to the field survey. Among the three surface state of samples (exposed surface, cutting face and powder), both spectra from the exposed surface and cutting face are almost identical whereas spectral variation was detected in powder sample. Over 24-hours-dryring of the wet sample at room temperature, the samples show a similar spectrum with that of dry condition. The result suggests that outcrop samples mighty be dried for 24 ~ 48 hours depending on the wetness of outcrop. The bright minerals could produce stable spectra with 10 times measurements as default value of the device under SWIR spectroscopy but the dark minerals would require about 10 seconds, which corresponds to 100 times measurements to get the reliable spectra. The position and shape 2,160 ~ 2,330 nm and/or other spectral features of hydrothermal alteration minerals by SWIR spectroscopy could be used for a classification of hydrothermal alteration zone in the field. Absorption peaks in 2,160 ~ 2180 nm are useful for identifying (advanced) argillic zone by spectral characteristics of kaoline, dickite, pyrophyllite, and alunite. Absorption peaks in 2,180 ~ 2,230 nm are able to define muscovite, sericite, and smectite, which are key alteration minerals in phyllic zone. Absorption peaks in 2,230 ~ 2,270 nm can be used to recognize prophylitic zone where chlorite and epidote occur. Absorption peaks of other principle minerals such as talc, serpentine, amphibole, and carbonate group are mainly detected within the wave length of 2,270 ~ 2,330 nm. This result indicates that the spectra of these minerals need to be carefully interpreted.

We assessed the feasibility of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) applied for the spectral processing to enhance the estimation performance quality of soil organic matters using visible-near infrared spectra and mapped their distribution via block Kriging model. Continuum-removal and $1^{st}$ derivative transform as well as Haar and Daubechies DWT were used to enhance spectral variation in terms of soil organic matter contents and those spectra were put into the PLSR (Partial Least Squares Regression) model. Estimation results using raw reflectance and transformed spectra showed similar quality with $R^2$ > 0.6 and RPD> 1.5. These values mean the approximation prediction on soil organic matter contents. The poor performance of estimation using DWT spectra might be caused by coarser approximation of DWT which not enough to express spectral variation based on soil organic matter contents. The distribution maps of soil organic matter were drawn via a spatial information model, Kriging. Organic contents of soil samples made Gaussian distribution centered at around 20 g $kg^{-1}$ and the values in the map were distributed with similar patterns. The estimated organic matter contents had similar distribution to the measured values even though some parts of estimated value map showed slightly higher. If the estimation quality is improved more, estimation model and mapping using spectroscopy may be applied in global soil mapping, soil classification, and remote sensing data analysis as a rapid and cost-effective method.

This paper proposes FMT(Filtered Multi-Tone)-based digital radio implementation algorithms and the results obtained by various field tests especially in terms of transmitter characteristics. In this study, we predefined frame structure and protocols used for the CSTDMA(Carrier Sensing Time Division Multiple Access) scheme, designed digital filters and RF front end to fulfill the system characteristics such as the spectral mask and processing delays given by the Recommendation ITU-R M.1842-1. The proposed system supports exchange of data for e-Navigation with the usage of wider channel of 50-100kHz bandwidth, Turbo coding and FMT modulation. Furthermore, the common Ethernet protocol makes connection to local WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) on board the ship for other data services.

Recently, many researchers have shown an increased interest in colloidal quantum dots (QDs) due to their unique physical and optical properties of size control for energy band gap, narrow emission with small full width at half maxima (FWHM), broad spectral photo response from ultraviolet to infrared, and flexible solution processing. QDs can be widely used in the field of optoelectronic and biological applications and, in particular, colloidal QDs based light emitting diodes (QDLEDs) have attracted considerable attention as an emerging technology for next generation displays and solid state lighting. A few methods have been proposed to fabricate white color QDLEDs. However, the fabrication of white color QDLEDs using single QD is very challenging. Recently, hybrid nanocomposites consisting of CdTe/ZnO heterostructures were reported by Zhimin Yuan et al.[1] Here, we demonstrate a novel but facile technique for the synthesis of CdTe/ZnO/G.O(graphene oxide) quasi-core-shell-shell quantum dots that are applied in the white color LED devices. Our best device achieves a maximum luminance of 484.2 cd/m2 and CIE coordinates (0.35, 0.28).

We show for the first time the optical properties of the selectively oxidized vertical cavity laser (VCL) - depleted optical thyristor (DOT), which has not only a low threshold current, but also a high sensitivity to the optical input light. In order to analyze their switching characteristics, nonlinear s-shaped current-voltage characteristics are calculated and the reverse full-depletion voltages (Vneg's) are obtained as function of semiconductor parameters by using a finite difference method (FDM). The selectively oxidized PnpN VCL-DOT clearly shows the nonlinear s-shaped current-voltage and lasing characteristics. A switching voltage of 5.24 V, a holding voltage of 1.50 V, a spectral response at 854.5 nm, and a very low threshold current of 0.65 mA is measured, making these devices attractive for optical processing applications.

Multicarrier code division multiple access(MC-CDMA) system that combines multicarrier modulation with CDMA offers robustness to frequency selective fading and can support higher rate data transmission with higher spectral efficiency. A new asynchronous MC-CDMA system to implement multiple data rate communications is proposed in this paper. In a W-CDMA downlink the orthogonal variable spreading factor(OVSF) code is used for variable spreading factor for various multimedia traffic. Proposed system utilizes the OVSF code that generated by generation property for spreading. The proposed MC-CDMA system use different lengths of OVSF code as a spreading code according to their data rate. The groupwise processing is accomplished by code grouping in OVSF code generation tree. For the analysis of average BER performance, numerical method and computer simulation were used. We also compare the system performance with that of a single rate MC-CDMA system used orthogonal code as a spreading code.

This study focuses on the radiometric normalization, which is one of the pre-processing steps to apply the change detection technique fur hyperspectral images. The PIFs which had radiometric consistency under the time interval were automatically extracted by applying spectral angle, and used as sample pixels for linear regression of the radiometric normalization. We also dealt with the problem about the number of PIFs for linear regression with iteratively quantitative methods. The results were assessed in comparison with image regression, histogram matching, and FLAASH. In conclusion, we show that linear regression method with PIFs can carry out the efficient result for radiometric normalization.

Since traditional linear feature extraction methods are unable to handle nonlinear characteristics often exhibited in hyperspectral imagery, nonlinear feature extraction, also known as manifold learning, is receiving increased attention in hyperspectral remote sensing society as well as other community. A most widely used manifold Isomap is generally promising good results in classification and spectral unmixing tasks, but significantly high computational overhead is problematic, especially for large scale remotely sensed data. A small subset of distinguishing points, referred to as landmarks, is proposed as a solution. This study proposes a new robust and controllable landmark selection method based on the maximum volume of the simplex spanned by landmarks. The experiments are conducted to compare classification accuracies with standard deviation according to sampling methods, the number of landmarks, and processing time. The proposed method could employ both classification accuracy and computational efficiency.

Three terpenoids were isolated from the leaves of Chrysanthemum coronarium L. by silica gel chromatography and recrystalization. The structure of compounds 1, 2, and 3, using various spectroscopic data, were identified as to be terpenoid derivatives of dihydrotulipinolide, loliolide, and $5{\alpha},8{\alpha}-peroxyergosterol$, respectively. The presence of these 3 is the first time reported in this plant. The cytotoxic activity of $5{\alpha},8{\alpha}-peroxyergosterol$ showed strong activities against human cancer cell lines such as A549, PC-3, and HCT 116.

Combing through entire video files for the purpose of recognizing and retrieving matching movies requires much time and memory space. Instead, most current similar movie-matching methods choose to analyze only a part of each movie's video-image information. Yet, these methods still share a critical problem of erroneously recognizing as being different matching videos that have been altered only in resolution or converted merely with a different codecs. This paper proposes an audio-information-based search algorithm by which similar movies can be identified. The proposed method prepares and searches through a database of movie's spectral peak information that remains relatively steady even with changes in the bit-rate, codecs, or sample-rate. The method showed a 92.1% search success rate, given a set of 1,000 video files whose audio-bit-rate had been altered or were purposefully written in a different codec.
