Phase noise spectrum distributions of signal generators for next-generation VSAT satellite system based on DVB-RCS2 were analyzed in this paper. The forward link of VSAT system utilizes the APSK higher-order modulation methods based on the DVB-S2 ACM, the modulation methods of the return link utilizes the higher-order PSK and QAM based on the DVB-RCS2. In digital satellite system using the higher-order modulation techniques, the phase noise have an effect on transmission performance, the transmission performance is dominantly degraded by the phase noise of signal generators in the transmission system. The phase noise spectrum distribution of signal generators are analyzed by considering the ACM conditions that adopts the modulation techniques and data rates due to satellite transmission environment. The proper phase noise spectrum distribution for next-generation VSAT system based on DVB-RCS2 are proposed from the analyzed phase noise spectrum characteristics.

This study compared the sound spectrums of pyeonjong remains and pyeonjong replica to investigate tuning ways of bells. pyeonjong remains, exhibited at King Sejong Memorial Museum and pyeonjong replica, played at the National Center for Korean Traditional Performance Arts were analyzed. To get mode frequencies and mode shapes, pyeonjong replicas' sound spectrums were analyzed and modal analyses by TV holography were performed. Also pyeonjong remains' sound spectrum were analyzed. Nominal frequencies on the pyeonjong replica and remains showed differences in a range between 9.8 cent and 203 cent. Two facts were inferred as causes of the differences, the tuning conditions of pyeonjong remains were not good and C4 in western tempered scale was preferred as the sound standard of Kukak, whangjong. Relative ratio of higher mode frequencies to the nominal frequencies were calculated to figure out tonal differences between two pyeonjongs. The differences in relative ratio of higher mode frequencies except (3,0)a and (3,0)b modes were significants as well as beyond the just noticeable difference. These results implied that the tonal differences between two pyeonjongs could exist. More pyeonjong remains are needed to be investigated to confirm this result in addition to the analyses of alloy components and bell structure of pyeonjong remains and replica.

The hydropneumatic suspension units, which have applied to the tracked vehicles, have the spring and damping function in the unit. The nonlinear characteristics such as roadwheel rotation effects, gas behavior changes, hydraulic damping characteristics, hysterisis, and frictional forces have been ignored or simplified to analyze the mathematical models in many areas. This study describes the dynamic characteristics and the nonlinear behaviors of hydropneumatic suspension unit considering the nonlinear effects such as the nonlinear spring and nonlinear damping through the simulation and the experiment. The utility of nonlinear analysis through the higher-order spectral analysis is also presented.

Various parameters are used to measure anesthetic depth during surgery using brain waves, and in actual clinical use, the linear analysis SEF is widely used. However, with recent studies showing that biological signals including EEG, contain nonlinear properties interest in nonlinear analysis of brain signals is increasing and parameters based on these are being developed. In this study, we are going to develop a parameter that can measure EEG using the nonlinear analysis method and extract noise that can be mixed with external electronic equipment and EEG instrumentation by comparing it with the data from the bispectrum analysis of static waves.

본 연구는 인간에 있어서 가장 간단한 의사라고 여겨지는 긍정과 부정 응답에 대해 나타나는 뇌파의 변화를 잘 반영하는 특징을 찾아내고자 하기 위한 것이다. 고차 통계적 방법(high order statical analysis)인 바이스펙트럼(bispectrum)은 뇌파의 다른 부위와 다른 주파수 사이의 비선형위상커플링(non-linear phase coupling)을 잘 반영하므로, 이를 이용하여 긍정이나 부정을 선택할 때 나타나는 뇌파를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 반응 전 1.25초∼0.5초 에 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 긍정과 부정 응답에 대한 뇌파의 주파수와 부위를 찾아 신경회로망의 입력으로 사용하여 긍정과 부정 응답에 대해 분별하였다. 2번의 뇌파실험에서 각각 실험 데이터에 대해서는 긍/부정 차이가 존재하지만 공통적인 특징이 나타나지는 않았다.

The Thomsen-Haskell method was used to determine sensitivities of the Rayleigh-wave phase velocities and spectral amplitude of vertical ground motion to insertion of a single velocity-anomaly layer into overburden underlain by a basement. The reference model comprised a 9-m thick overburden with shear-wave velocity (${\nu}_s$ of 300 m/s above a half-space with ${\nu}_s$ = 1000 m/s. The inserted layer, with a velocity of 150, 225, 375, or 450 m/s and a thickness of 1, 2, or 3 m, was placed at depths increasing from the surface in increments of 1 m. Phase velocities were computed for frequencies of 4 to 30 Hz. For inserted layer models, we placed an anomalous layer with thickness of 1 ~ 3 m, shear-wave velocity of 150 ~ 450 m/s, and at depths of 0 ~ 8 m in the overburden. The frequency range of 8 ~ 20 Hz were the most sensitive to the difference of $C_R$ between the inserted and reference models (${\Delta}C_R$) for h = 1 m and the frequency range got wide as h increased. For all of the models, the spectral amplitudes of the fundamental mode exceeded those of the $1^{st}$-higher mode except at frequencies just above the low-frequency cutoff of the $1^{st}$-higher mode.

Polymerizations of higher $\alpha$-olefins were carried out in toluene by using highly isospecific catalyst, rac-(EBI)M(NMe$_2$)$_2$ (EBI=1,2-ethylenebis-(1-indenyl); M=Zr(rac-1); M=Hf(rac-2)) In the presence of Al(i-Bu)$_3$/[Ph$_3$C][B($C_{6}F_{5}$)$_4$]. The polymerization of high $\alpha$-olefin showed high activity and similar polymerization behavior. The polymerization activity was affected by both monomer size and lateral size of polymer chain. The conversion of monomer to polymer decreases with the increased lateral size in the order of 1-pentene>1-hexene>1-octene>1-decene. The same dependences of melting behavior and intrinsic viscosity of polyolefin on lateral size were observed according to the results obtained by differential scanning calorimetry and intrinsic viscosity. All poly($\alpha$-olefin)s showed very high isotacticity (triad) and the isotacticity increases in the order of poly(1-pentene)$^1H$ NMR and Raman spectra analysis showed that chain transfer to cocatalyst, which generates saturated methyl groups, Is a main chain termination. The $\beta$-hydride eliminations, which generate unsaturated vinylidene, tri-substituted, and vinylene end group. are found to be minor chain terminations.

Purpose : High-resolution spiral-scan imaging is performed at 3 Tesla MRI system. Since the gradient waveforms for the spiral-scan imaging have lower slopes than those for the Echo Planar Imaging (EPI), they can be implemented with the gradient systems having lower slew rates. The spiral-scan imaging also involves less eddy currents due to the smooth gradient waveforms. The spiral-scan imaging method does not suffer from high specific absorption rate (SAR), which is one of the main obstacles in high field imaging for rf echo-based fast imaging methods such as fast spin echo techniques. Thus, the spiral-scan imaging has a great potential for the high-speed imaging in high magnetic fields. In this paper, we presented various high-resolution images obtained by the spiral-scan methods at 3T MRI system for various applications. Materials and Methods : High-resolution spiral-scan imaging technique is implemented at 3T whole body MRI system. An efficient and fast higher-order shimming technique is developed to reduce the inhomogeneity, and the single-shot and interleaved spiral-scan imaging methods are developed. Spin-echo and gradient-echo based spiral-scan imaging methods are implemented, and image contrast and signal-tonoise ratio are controlled by the echo time, repetition time, and the rf flip angles. Results : Spiral-scan images having various resolutions are obtained at 3T MRI system. Since the absolute magnitude of the inhomogeneity is increasing in higher magnetic fields, higher order shimming to reduce the inhomogeneity becomes more important. A fast shimming technique in which axial, sagittal, and coronal sectional inhomogeneity maps are obtained in one scan is developed, and the shimming method based on the analysis of spherical harmonics of the inhomogeneity map is applied. For phantom and invivo head imaging, image matrix size of about $100{\times}100$ is obtained by a single-shot spiral-scan imaging, and a matrix size of $256{\times}256$ is obtained by the interleaved spiral-scan imaging with the number of interleaves of from 6 to 12. Conclusion : High field imaging becomes increasingly important due to the improved signal-to-noise ratio, larger spectral separation, and the higher BOLD-based contrast. The increasing SAR is, however, a limiting factor in high field imaging. Since the spiral-scan imaging has a very low SAR, and lower hardware requirements for the implementation of the technique compared to EPI, it is suitable for a rapid imaging in high fields. In this paper, the spiral-scan imaging with various resolutions from $100{\times}100$ to $256{\times}256$ by controlling the number of interleaves are developed for the high-speed imaging in high magnetic fields.

We have examined the applicability of f-k analysis to the GPR direct wave measurement for water content to characterize vadose zone condition. When the vadose zone consists of a dry surface layer over wet substratum, we obtained f-k spectra where most of the energy is bounded by the air and dry soil velocities. In this case, dry soil velocity was successfully estimated by using high frequency data. On the other hands, when wet soil overlies dry substratum, the f-k spectra show a contrasting response where most of the energy travels with the velocity bounded by dry and wet soil velocities. In this case, the radar waves are trapped and guided within wet soil layer, exhibiting velocity dispersion. By adopting modal propagation theory, we could formulae a simple inversion code to find two layer's dielectric constants as well as layer thickness. By inverting the velocity dispersion curve obtained from f-k spectra of synthetic modeling data, we could obtain good estimates of dielectric constants of each layer as well as first layer thickness. Moreover, we could obtain more accurate results by including the higher mode data. We expect this method will be useful to get the quantitative property of real subsurface when the field condition is similar.
