In this present the transient control of SBS chaos induced instability in Brillouin-active fiber systems is described. The inherent optical feedback by the backscattered Stokes wave in optical fiber systems leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. At weak power, the nature of the Brillouin instability can occur at before threshold. At strong power, the temporal evolution above threshold is periodic and at higher intensity can become chaotic. Multistable periodic states, makes transition to logic 'on' or 'off'. It can make theoretically potential large memory capacity.

In this paper, highly-efficient optical gating in a junction device based on vanadium dioxide($VO_2$) thin film grown by a sol-gel method was investigated as a gate terminal of a three-terminal device using infrared light with a wavelength of ~1554.6 nm. Due to the photoinduced phase transition, the threshold voltage of the $VO_2$ junction device, at which the device current abruptly jumps, could be tuned with a sensitivity of ~96.5 V/W by adjusting the optical power of the infrared light directly illuminating the device. Compared with the tuning efficiency of the previous device fabricated using $VO_2$ thin film deposited by a pulsed laser deposition method, the threshold voltage of this device could be tuned by ~76.8 % at an illumination power of ~39.8 mW resulting in a tuning efficiency of ~1.930 %/mW, which is ~4.9 times larger than the previous device.

The development of high voltage Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) have given new device advantage in the areas where they compete with conventional GTO (Gate Turnoff Thyristor) technology. The IGBT combines the advantages of a power MOSFET (Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) and a bipolar power transistor. The change of electrical characteristics for IGBT is mainly coming from the change of characteristics of MOSFET at the input gate and the PNP transistors at the output. The change of threshold voltage, which is one of the important design parameters, is brought by charge trapping at the gate oxide under the environment that radiation exists. The energy loss will be also studied as the inductance values are changed. In this paper, the electrical characteristics are simulated by SPICE, and compared for variation of inductance and threshold voltage based on IGBT.

In this paper, we consider a user centric clustering in order to guarantee the performance of the users in cell free multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) network. In the user centric clustering scheme, by using large scale fading coefficients of the connected access points (APs), each user decides own cluster with the APs having the higher the large scale fading coefficients than threshold value compared to the highest large scale fading coefficient. In the determined user centric clusters, the APs design the beamformers and power allocations in the distributed manner and the APs cooperatively transmit data to users by using beamformers and power allocations. In the simulation results, we verify the performance of user centric clustering in terms of the spectral efficiency and we also find the optimal threshold value in the given configuration.

The necessity of radiation dosimeter with precise measurement of radiation dose is increased and required in the field of spacecraft, radiotheraphy hospital, atomic plant facility, etc. where radiation exists. Until now, a low power commercial metal-oxide semiconductor(MOS) transistor has been tested as a gamma radiation dosimeter. The measurement error between the actual value and the measurement one can occur since the MOSFET(MOS field-effect transistor) dosimeter, which is now being used, has two gates with same width. The measurement value of dosimeter depends on the variation of threshold voltage, which can be affected by the environment such as temperature. In this paper, a radiation dosimeter having a pair of MOSFET is designed in the same silicon substrate, in which each of the MOSFETs is operable in a bias mode and a test mode. It can measure the radiation dose by the difference between the threshold voltages regardless of the variation of temperature.

To estimate sound direction of arrival with a pair of microphones, a method based on Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) estimation using the Cross Power Spectrum Phase (CPSP) function is largely used due to its simplicity and good performance. In this paper, we investigate CPSP maximum values for various SNRs and adverse environments, and propose a novel method to improve the estimation performance of sound direction of arrival. The proposed method applies a threshold to the CPSP values and increases the reliability of the estimated sound direction. Through computer simulation for various SNRs, we validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. When the threshold was set to 0.1, more than 90% of success rate of sound direction of arrival estimation has been achieved for directions of $10^{\circ}$, $40^{\circ}$, $70^{\circ}$ from the source location even with reverberation times of 0.1s.

This paper describes design of an algorithm for analyzing human activity using body-fixed 3-axis accelerometer in the small of the back. In the first step, we distinguish static and dynamic activity period using AC signal analysis. Then five postures were classified by applying the threshold in DC signal corresponding to the static activity period. Also, after comparison of average power and taking negative peak signal in the dynamic activity period, the four dynamic activities were classified by adaptive threshold method. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, the measured signals obtained from six subjects were applied to the proposed algorithm and the results were compared with the simultaneously measured video data. As a result, the activity classification rate of 95.7％ on average was obtained. Overall results show that the proposed classification algorithm has a possibility to be used to analyze the static and dynamic physical activity.
