The use of membranes for MBRWG (Membrane Bioreactor for Waste Gas) treatment can provide highly selective separation of a waste gas stream followed by effective biological removal. MBRWG have several potential advantages, among which the most distinctive one is separation of gas and liquid phases at each side of membrane potentially allowing the optimal biomass control toward effective biodegradation of target gases as well as biofilm activation. This advantage becomes especially favorable for removal of hydrophobic toxic gases, such as xylene, by MBRWG systems, because the mass transfer, the toxicity, and thereby the biodegradation of hydrophobic gas treatment requires sensitive handling of liquid stream and water control near biofilm. Among various membranes for MBRWG treatment, PDMS-hollow fiber membranes provide the high gas mass transfer. Despite lower specific surface areas, capillary type membranes are also applied current MBRWG studies. In addition to the main application of membranes as biofilm supporter in MBRWG systems, there can be another application of membranes in a posterior process for removal of residual gases or dusts emitted from conventional biological waste gas treatment processes.

A weather radar as one of the remote sensing devices to analyze the weather phenomena receives the return echoes which consist of scattered electromagnetic wave signals from rain, cloud and dust particles, etc. These received Doppler weather spectra are analyzed to extract the various characteristic weather information. The mean wind velocity is one of the important weather parameters which can be obtained by a weather radar ed it may be useful in the prevention of weather hazards occurred by the abrupt shift of wind in small geographical scales such as microbursts. It is usually estimated by pulse pair method which is considered to be reliable and very efficient in the computational requirement. However, there are some problems in the accurate estimation of the mean velocity if Doppler spectra of weather signals appear to be asymmetric gaussian or multi-peak spectra. Therefore, in this paper, the problems in the mean estimation of asymmetric Doppler spectra are analyzed and the improved method is suggested.

An airborne radar is an essential aviation electronic system of the aircraft to perform various missions in all weather environments. This paper presents the design, development, and test results of the multi-mode pulsed Doppler radar system test model for helicopter-borne flight test. This radar system consists of 4 LRU units, which include ANTU(Antenna Unit), TRU(Tx Rx Unit), RSDU(Radar Signal & Data Processing Unit) and DISU(Display Unit). The developed technologies include the TACCAR processor, planar array antenna, TWTA transmitter, coherent I/Q detector, digital pulse compression, DSP based Doppler FFT filtering, adaptive CFAR, IMU, and tracking capability. The design performance of the developed radar system is verified through various helicopter-borne field tests including MTD (Moving Target Detector) capability for the Doppler compensation due to the moving platform motion.

It is necessary to estimate the Doppler spectrum for each range cell for the extraction of useful information from the return echoes in radar systems used for the remote sensing purpose such as detection of moving targets and weather surveillance. The signal amplitude in the beat frequency band is the important parameter in the detection and tracking of targets. However, strong clutter echoes do exist in most radar operation environments and the system phase noise spreads both the clutter and signal echoes of the target. In this paper, the effects of this system phase noise are analyzed concerning the clutter and the signal beat spectrum. It is shown that the separation capability of adjacent beat signal depends on the degree of spread in the clutter and beat signal caused by the radar system phase noise

In this paper, we propose the low sldelobe digital doppler filter bank design algorithm which is practically applicable to coherent radar equipment in complex air-defense system. Using the proposed algorithm, we can obtain a digital doppler filter bank of lower peak sidelobe level and higher clutter suppression capability. In this method, it is possible to achieve higher target-detectability without loss of Target SNR. The proposed algorithms are verified by simulations and experiments.

Telecommunication satellite consists of a bus system and an RF payload system with high efficiency and high gain reflector antennas. Antenna measurement and also RF system performance (antenna under test, payload and satellite level) have to be evaluated enough before launching in the far-field range or equivalent test range. Basically far-field range is required in a range from two hundred meters to several kilo meters, and it is highly constrained to the externa1 environment, like the RF and the whether environment So the compact antenna test range is developed and used efficiently without external environments as in-door facility. This paper describes the configuration of the compact antenna test range, the range error, and the physical concept of the plane wave illumination Also, it provides a overall design of the anechoic chamber and range parameter values to accommodate the precision measurements in antenna test range.

In many situations, radar targets are embedded in a clutter environment and clutter rejection is required. The clutter is unwanted radar echoes and may arise owing to reflections from ground and weather disturbances and statistical properties of the clutter vary with range and azimuth as well as time. That is, adaptive signal processing is required. In this paper, a clutter suppression algorithm based on the clutter whitening filter (WF) and doppler filter bank(DFB) is described which provides improved performance compared with conventional nonadaptive clutter suppression algorithm that is the cascaded moving target indicator (MTI) and (DFB). The clutter whitening filter algorithm is based on the Burg's maximum entropy method.

It is necessary to estimate the Doppler spectrum for each range cell for the extraction of useful information from the return echoes in radar systems used for the remote sending purpose. However, The conventional spectrum estimation method, FFT(Fast Fourier Transform), called the Doppler filter bank, causes the frequency resolution problem if the dwell time is relatively short. This short acquisition time also spreads the side lobe levels of return echoes further, resulting in difficulties for the discrimination of weak target signals included in relatively strong target echoes. Therefore, in this paper, the efficient Doppler spectrum estimation methods are compared and investigated through the parameter spectrum estimation in the time domain to overcome these problems.

Many short range weather radars with the low elevation search capability are needed for analysis and prediction of unusual weather changes or rainfall phenomena which occurs regionally. However, due to the characteristics of low elevation electromagnetic wave beam, it is highly probable that the received weather signals of these radars are contaminated by the ground and sea clutter. Since most of ground clutter appears around the very narrow low Doppler frequency region, it is somewhat easy to separate. However, the sea clutter removal is very difficult since it can occupy the broad Doppler frequency region according to weather conditions. Therefore, in this paper, the sea clutter removal capability is analyzed for a phased array weather radar which use vertical array elements for electronic elevation beam steering. Also, it is shown that the sea clutter removal can be achieved appropriately using the receiver beam forming technology in a phased array antenna.
