Lg amplitude decrease $Q^{-1}$ is very important because the Lg phase is the largest seismic phase in Korea if hazardous earthquakes occurred at neighbor nations such as Japan and China. Since reliable $Q^{-1}$ from two station method can be obtained by long pair distance of stations or events, we used seismic stations both Korea and Japans recording Korean events. The obtained $Q^{-1}$ values, however, were anomalously high; these misguided values, inconsistent with tectonic activity of Korean Peninsula, seems to be related with high $Q^{-1}$ values of Japan region.

The purpose of this paper was to develop a nondestructive evaluation method of sintered material by ultrasonic method. The density distribution of sintered material becomes inhomogeneous partially because of the friction between the powder and the die during compaction. The inhomogeneity was investigated by measurement of the energy attenuation coefficient and the shift of the center frequency in the frequency spectrum of the ultrasonic reflection echo. The experimental results showed that the center frequency of reflection wave depended linearly on the density of sintered materials. However, the attenuation coefficient decreased inversely as the density increased. This study shows that the shift of the center frequency in the frequency spectrum of reflection wave can be used to a nondestructive evaluation of sintered materials.

In this study, we conducted a numerical simulation using Navier-Stokes Solver (HYMO-WASS-3D) in order to analyze wave attenuation under wave-current interaction found in existing hydraulic experiments. It showed that wave energy and wave height are reduced as the wave propagates in coexisting fields between waves and currents. And the wave attenuation became more serious as the velocity of current and thus turbulence intensity were increased at wave-current coexisting field. As well, the wave attenuation became more serious with lower wave height and shorter period when the wave propagates the same distance under interactions between waves and currents.

When an optical pulse propagates through the atmospheric channel, the atmospheric turbulence attenuates and spreads this pulse. This attenuation and broadening of pulse are occurred by the fluctuation in the arrival time of pulse at the optical receiver. This pulse broadening induces the intersymbol interference (ISI) between the adjacent pulses. finally, the adjacent pulses are overlapped and the bit rate and the repeaterless transmission length are limited by the ISI. In digital communication system, therefore, the pulse broadening is more important factor than the attenuation. In this paper, thus, we find the ISI in the atmospheric turbulence as the function of the structure constant for the refractive index fluctuation that presents the strength of turbulence using the temporal momentum function and present it by numerical analysis.

In this paper, we studied hierarchical channel coding scheme using unequal error protection method fur consecutively broadcastingservice under the rain attenuation of Ka band satellite broadcasting. Unlike time-sharing methods, which are design for different channel coding scheme in according to different modulation, unequal error protection method is made in such way that minimum distance between signals are different for importance of signals with same modulation. Consequently we proposed optimal method according to performance analysis.

A construction noise is the main reason for people's petition among the pollution. The purpose of this study is to develop the noise prediction program to see the level of the noise on the construction site more accurately. For this purpose, the database of the power level on the various equipments was made. The noise reduction by distance and the noise reduction by diffraction of barrier were mainly considered and calculated. The simple noise prediction program will provide the information about proper height and length of the potable barrier which satisfies noise criteria of the construction sites from a construction planning stage. To investigate the reliability of this program, the predicted data was compared with the measured data. An average of difference between measured data and predicted data is 1.3 dB(A) and a coefficient of correlation is about 0.95.

Laser light which modulated and transmitted through one-meter water bath and one-kilometer transmission distances in atmospheric media is detected by method of direct photo-detection. Also, it is analyzed as a square law detection and the experimental apparatus are designed and constructed. Consequently, in spite that the quantitative analysis remains, the availability of coherent optical communication is understood. The average attenuation with the conditions of weather is about -25dB, and the average attenuation coefficient of water is about 0.4(m-1).

군산의 C-Band 레이더로 호남지방의 에코관측에는 무리가 있으며, 그이유는 C-Band의 특성상 관측범위가 짧은 것도 있겠지만, 강수에코에 의한 감쇠가 심하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 호남지방에서 진도의 S-Band 레이더는 AWS값과 상당부분 일치함을 보였으며, 그 탐지거리 역시 C-Band인 군산레이더보다 길고 감쇠 역시 적었다. 그러나 무안 부근의 경우에서는 진도의 S-band 레이더가 감지하지 못하는 에코영상을 무안레이더가 감지하는 경우도 있었다. 무안의 X-Band 레이더는 진도의 S-Band레이더의 값과 대부분 유사한 결과 값을 보였으나, 근거리에 에코관측 시 진도레이더가 관측하지 못했거나 감지했더라도 그 강도에 있어서 조금 더 정확한 값을 보였다. 각 레이더의 관측특성을 고려하여 악기상과 돌발적인 기상현상을 관측한다면 단시간예보에의 활용과 보다 정확하게 예측하고 예보하는데 크게 기여하리라 판단된다.

When an optical pulse is propagated through the atmosphere space, it is attenuated and broadened by the effect of atmospheric turbulence. This pulse broadening is occurred by the fluctuation in the arrival time of pulse at an optical receiver. In digital optical communication, the attenuation is important factor but the pulse broadening is more important. In this paper, thus, we will find the broadening of pulse propagated through the turbulent atmosphere, present it as the function of the structure constant for the refractive index fluctuation, and simulate it to the turbulent strength and the transmission length.
