We investigate the OFDM-based wireless LAN systems operating in the 60 GHz frequency band as part of the fourth-generation (4G) systems. The 60 GHz band is of much interest since this is the band in which a massive amount of spectral space has been allocated worldwide for dense wireless local communications. This paper gives an overview of 60 GHz band channel characteristics and an effect on phase noise. The performance of OFDM system is severely degraded by the local oscillator phase noise, which causes both common phase error and inter-carrier interference. In this paper, we apply phase noise suppression (PNS) algorithm that is easy for implementation to OFDM based 60 GHz wireless LAN system and analyze the SER performance. In case of using the PNS algorithm, SER performance is improved about 6 dB, 7.5 dB, respectively in 16, 64-QAM.

Wave characteristics in the presence of energy damping are investigated using the linear shallow water equations. To get the phase and energy velocities, geometric optics approach is used and then these values are validated through numerical experiments. Energy damping affects wave height, phase and energy velocities which result in wave transformation. When the complex wavenumber is used by the Eulerian approach, it is found that the phase velocity decreases as the damping increases while the energy velocity increases showing higher values than the phase velocity. When the complex angular frequency is used by the Lagrangian approach, the energy-damping wave group is found to propagate in the energy velocity. The energy velocity is found to affect shoaling and refraction coefficient which is verified through numerical experiments for waves on a plane slope.

In this thesis, a two-dimensional active phased array antenna without phase shifter is studied for two-dimensional beam scanning. A designed two-dimensional oscillator-type active array antenna, radiation elements and the oscillator circuits were combined with via-hole and coupled by slot on the opposite ground plane. The operating characteristics are analyzed and experimentally demonstrated , The two-dimensional $4\times4$ elements were designed for the proper coupling strengths and coupling phases by adjusting the width, length and offset position of slot-lines. The fabricated active phased array antenna shows the beam shift characteristics capable of scanning from $-17^{\circ}$ to $18^{\circ}$ with respect to broadside in one dimension, from $-5^{\circ}$ to $10^{\circ}$ in two dimension. The experimental results show that it is possible to use the oscillator-type active phased array antenna as a two-dimensional planar array antenna.

적설은 자주는 아니지만 가끔 비교적 넓은 범위에 피해를 발생시킨다. 적설에 의한 피해를 예방하기 위해서는 피해를 유발하는 적설심을 미리 파악해 둘 필요가 있다. 하지만 관측하고 있는 적설심은 특정 관측지점으로 한정되어 피해를 유발하는 한계적설심을 파악하는데 어려움이 있다. 이를 극복하기 위한 일반적인 방법은 관측지점의 적설을 보간하여 공간적으로 확대하는 것이다. 하지만 이것은 매우 적은 자료를 가지고 넓은 영역을 통계적으로 추정해야하는 한계로 인해 피해 유발 한계적설심의 구명에 더 혼란을 주기도 한다. 이를 보완하기 위해서는 넓은 영역을 관측하는 위성영상을 활용할 수 있으며, 그 중에서도 합성개구레이더(Synthetic Aperture Radar; SAR)를 이용한 InSAR(Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) 기법은 이를 위해 적절한 방법일 수 있다. 영상의 간섭계는 두 개의 다른 시기에 측정된 합성개구레이더 영상의 위상차를 이용한 것으로 일반적으로 다른 조건들이 일치할 때 지형의 변화를 추적할 때 사용되곤 한다. 그런데 만약 두 시기 사이에 특별한 지형적인 변화를 일으키는 요인이 없고 단지 적설만이 존재한다면 두 영상의 위상차는 적설의 효과로 볼 수 있을 것이다. 적설이 전파의 전달경로를 다르게 만들어 위상차를 발생시키는 것으로 가정할 수 있다. 이때 발생하는 위상차는 적설심과 적설의 굴절률에 의해 다를 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 적설 전후에 수집된 인공위성 합성개구레이더 자료의 위상차를 분석한 간섭영상을 이용해 적설심의 공간분포를 추정하여 비교해 보고자 한다. 이를 위해 적설에 대한 투과가 가능한 C밴드 레이더를 사용하는 Sentinel-1의 영상을 사용하였다. 적설심의 공간분포는 실제 피해발생지역의 적설심을 보다 정확하게 추정하는데 기여할 수 있으며, 이것은 실제 피해유발적설심을 파악하는데 도움이 될 것이다.

We propose the separation algorithm to simultaneously measure two-dimensional refractive index distribution and thickness profile of transparent samples using three wavelengths. The optical system was based on the Mach-zehnder interferometer with LD (Laser Diode)-based multi-wavelength sources. A LCR (Liquid Crystal Retarder) was used to obtain interference images at four phase states and then the optical phase of the object is calculated by four-bucket algorithm. Experimental results with a glass rod are provided at the different wavelengths of 635nm, 660nm and 675nm. The refractive indices of the sample are distributed with accuracy of less than 0.0005 and the thickness profile of sample was cylindrical type. This result demonstrates that it is possible to separate refractive index distribution and thickness profile of samples in two dimensions using the proposed algorithm.

Feature identification is one of the largest issue in high spatial resolution satellite imagery. A popular method associated with this feature identification is image segmentation to produce image segments that are more likely to features interested. Here, it is, proposed that combination of edge extraction and region growing methods for image segments were used to improve the result of image segmentation. At the intial step, an image was segmented by edge detection method. The segments were assigned IDs, and polygon topology of segments were built. Based on the topology, the segments were tested their similarities with adjacent segments using multivariate analysis. The segments that have similar spectral characteristics were merged into a region. The test application shows that the segments composed of individual large, spectrally homogeneous structures, such as buildings and roads, were merged into more similar shape of structures.

최근 Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical(MOEMS)기술의 발달과 더불어 적응 광학(Adaptive optics)분야나 패턴 인식 분야에 적용 가능한 공간 빛 변조기의 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 적응 광학용 공간 빛 변조기는 대기의 turbulence에 의하여 왜곡된 빛의 위상을 파면 센서(wave sensor)와 실시간 제어기를 통해 보정하는 역할을 한다. 적응 광학 분야에서 상업적으로 사용되던 기존의 공간 빛 변조기는 전왜소자 배열(piezoelectric actuator array)에 의하여 지지되는 평면 거울을 사용하여 크기가 크고 전력 소비도 심하며 무엇보다도 가격이 비싸다는 단점이 있었다$^{(1)}$ . 그러나 MOEMS 기술의 적용으로 인해 공간 빛 변조기의 크기 및 무게 그리고 소비 전력이 줄어들었으며 반도체 공정을 통한 대량 생산으로 저가로 생산할 수 있게 되었다.

Group communication in a wireless mesh network is complicated due to dynamic intermediate mesh points, access control for communications between different administrative domains, and the absence of a centralized network controller. Especially, many-to-many multicasting in a dynamic mesh network can be modeled by a decentralized framework where several subgroup managers control their members independently and coordinate the inter-subgroup communication. In this study, we propose a topology-matching decentralized group key management scheme that allows service providers to update and deliver their group keys to valid members even if the members are located in other network domains. The group keys of multicast services are delivered in a distributed manner using the identity-based encryption scheme. Identity-based encryption facilitates the dynamic changes of the intermediate relaying nodes as well as the group members efficiently. The analysis result indicates that the proposed scheme has the advantages of low rekeying cost and storage overhead for a member and a data relaying node in many-to-many multicast environment. The proposed scheme is best suited to the settings of a large-scale dynamic mesh network where there is no central network controller and lots of service providers control the access to their group communications independently.

In order to investigate in-line ground motions caused by earthquakes, we examine the multicomponent complex trace analysis method (MCTAM) for the synthetic data and apply it to real earthquake data. An experimental result for synthetic data gives correct information on the arrival times, duration of individual phases, and approaching angles for body waves. Rayleigh waves are also easily identified with the MCTAM. A deep earthquake with magnitude of 7.3 was chosen to test various polarization attributes of ground motions. For P waves, instantaneous phase difference between the vertical and the in-line horizontal components ${\phi}(t)$, instantaneous reciprocal ellipticity ${\rho}(t)$, and approaching angle ${\tau}(t)$ are computed to be ${\pm}180^{\circ},\;0{\sim}0.25,\;and\;-30^{\circ}{\sim}-45^{\circ}$, respectively. For S waves, ${\phi}(t)$ tends to vary while ${\rho}(t)$ have values of $0{\sim}0.3\;and\;{\tau}(t)$ remains near vertical, respectively. A relatively low frequency signal registered just prior to the S wave event is interpreted as a P-wave phase based on its polarization characteristics. Velocities of P and S waves are computed to be 8.633 km/s and 4.762 km/s, and their raypath parameters 0.074 s/km and 0.197 s/km. Dynamic Poisson's ratio is obtained as 0.281 from the velocities of P and S waves.

In this paper, we studied effects of active-passive interface on the tuning characteristics of a multielectrode DBR laser. An abrupt interface distorts the threshold gain and the phase change in a multielectrode DBR laser, which results in narrowing of the continuous tuning range. On other hand, an interface with the gradual index change gives tuning characteristics which is very similar to that obtained by ignoring the interface.
