This paper proposes a new position detection method for train speed control using the PDOA(Phase Difference of Arrival). This method aims to apply to AGT(Automated Guide way Transit) systems, operated with driverless. So it is absolutely required to range, calculate and decide a train position precisely. This system consists of VRS (Vehicle Radio Set) and WRS(Wayside Radio Set). The VRS transmits a wireless signal to the WRS, the controller calculate a straight line with the PDOA. Next step calculate an exact position using track DB. This paper includes the concept, configuration, analysis and results of this method.

This paper introduces the high-resolution channel estimation technique which are used to estimate the first arrival multipath delay component. The proposed technique yields the precise estimate of the first time arrival which is directly related to the performance of TDOA-based position location. The proposed technique utilizes the transformed auto-correlation function of received common pilot signal in frequency domain, its samples compose the hermitian Toeplitz matrix at sequel. Then the time delay components could be estimated with precision by the analysis of eigen-structure of corresponding matrix. In this paper, obeying the modified CODIT model, the performance of the PR-IPDL(Pseudo Random-Idle Period Downlink) and TA-IPDL(Time Aligned-Idle Period Downlink considered as 3GPP position location technique will be exploited systematically through the computer simulations with applying the proposed technique.

Using the microearthquake data acquired from 1995 to 1996 through the seismic network operated by the Korea Institute of Geology, Mining & Materials (KIGAM), the three P-wave velocity models proposed by Lee (1979), Kim·Kim (1983) and Kim·Jung (1985) concerning the structure of the southeastern part of the Korean peninsula were examined in terms of the least square errors of the P-wave arrival times. The three models do not differ significantly in arrival time residuals except that the Lee's model gives slightly deeper focuses than the others. The layering of the crust of the peninsula is not clear as yet and to be studied by more earthquake and explosion data in the future.

In the conventional AOA(angle-of-arrival) positioning utilizing reverse-link wireless channel, each sensor should be equipped with an array antenna to measure the incident angle of signal transmitting from a tag. To perform the complicated signal processing for angle measurements, sensor size and its power consumption will be large. In some applications like mobile robot location, there exists no strict restriction in tag size or in power consumption. Rather, it is desirable that the sensor would be as small as possible. This paper presents a new AOA positioning method utilizing forward-link channel. Under the assumption that the mobile robot is operating on the flat surface, the measurement model for FLAOA(tiJrward-link AOA) is derived first. Two kinds of position estimation algorithms using FLAOA measurements are proposed; Gauss-Newton method and closed-fonn solution method. With the proposed methods, we can ohtain the attitude of robot as well as its position. Positioning performance of proposed methods is compared by computer simulation. Simulation results show that the closed-form solution method using FLAOA measurements is suitable for indoor robot positioning.

Now days, It is based on GIS and GPS, it can search for the shortest path and estimation of arrival time by using the internet and cell phone to driver. But, even though good car navigation system does not create which is the shortest path when there average vehicle speed is 10 -20 Km. Therefore In order to reduce vehicle waiting time and average vehicle speed, we suggest optimal green time algorithm using fuzzy adaptive control, where there are different traffic intersection length and lane. In this paper, it will be able to forecast the optimal traffic information, estimation of destination arrival time, under construction road, and dangerous road using internet.

Caustic ingestion can produce a progressive and devastating injury to the esophagus and stomach, In the acute stage, perforation and necrosis may occur. Long-term complications include esophageal stricture, antral stenosis and the development of esophageal cancer. Endoscopy should be performed as soon as possible in all cases to evaluate the extent and severity of damage, unless there is evidence of perforation. Endoscopy is the diagnostic procedure of choice. However, when the endoscopy cannot be passed through due to esophageal stricture, upper GI barium studies may be useful as a follow-up measure and in the evaluation of complications. A 44-year-old man visited our hospital complaining frequent vomiting 1 hour after ingestion of unknown amount of hydrochloric acid. At the time of arrival, the patient's oral cavity was slightly swollen and erythematous. On the endoscopic examination fourteen hour after the caustic ingestion, marked swelling of the arytenoids and circumferential ulceration with brown and black pigmentation at the upper esophagus were observed. Four weeks after the caustic injury, upper esophageal narrowing was observed and then the scope could not be advanced to the stomach. Upper GI barium study performed at that time revealed diffuse luminal narrowing of the esophagus and concentric luminal narrowing from prepyloric antrum to pylorus with disturbance of barium passage. At a week after the Upper GI study, through endoscopic examination after bougie dilatation of the esophagus, barium impaction in the stomach and the pylorus was noticed.

화력발전소 S/Y(switchyard)의 362 kV GIS에 대한 부분방전 정밀측정을 수행하였다. 2005년 부터 화력발전소 S/Y GIS의 고장예방을 위해 설치 운전승인 UHF 부분방전 상시감시시스템에서 상당히 큰 부분 방전신호가 지속적으로 감지되었다. 상시감시시스템에서 방전신호의 원인을 부유전극으로 추정하였으며, 이에 해당 사업소에서 감지된 방전신호의 노이즈 여부 및 방전 발생위치 추정을 위한 기술지원을 요청하였다. 이에 따라 전력연구원은 방전신호를 정밀 측정한 후 PRPD(phase resolved partial discharge) 분석을 통해 부유전극이 GIS 내부에 존재함을 확인하였으며, TOA(time of arrival)법에 의해 제 1 발전기 step-up 변압기부터 인근 가스절연모선 사이에 결함이 존재하는 것으로 추정하였다. 전력연구원의 측정결과를 바탕으로 발전소측에서 해당 개소를 분해 점검한 결과 가스절연모선의 중앙도체를 지지하는 supporting insulator 금구류의 접촉불량에 의한 부유전극 결함을 발견하고 보수하였다. 보수후 상시감시시스템에서 방전신호가 검출되지 않음에 따라 방전원인이 제거되었음을 확인하였다.

Accurate and reliable tracking of train is essential for the train control system. The fixed block system which utilizes track circuit has been used widely for the detection of train position. As an alternative, the moving block system has the advantage over the fixed block system since it enables shorter headway and easier maintenance. This paper presents a new technique for the train tracking system which uses radio signal for the train position detection. The proposed algorithm uses the phase difference of arrival of radio signal for the detection of train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

In last decades, several linearization methods for the AOA measurements have been proposed, for example, Gauss-Newton method and closed-form solution. Gauss-Newton method can achieve high accuracy, but the convergence of the iterative process is not always ensured if the initial guess is not accurate enough. Closed-form solution provides a non-iterative solution and it is less computational. It does not suffer from convergence problem, but estimation error is somewhat larger. This paper proposes a self-tuning weighted least square AOA algorithm that is a modified version of the conventional closed-form solution. In order to estimate the error covariance matrix as a weight, two-step estimation technique is used. Simulation results show that the proposed method has smaller positioning error compared to the existing methods.

In this paper, we propose a method and condition of locating the position of an object in one dimension by using the phase difference of arrival(PDOA), To get a phase difference, the comparator of a wayside radio station(WRS) compares the reference signal with the received signal, Therefore, we can locate the position of a moving object. Finally, by using the simulation of a computer we analyze their values.
