A defect analysis program of the composite motor case was developed to apply the ultrasonic signal processing method on basis of the ultrasonic pulse-echo method and the defects of FRP delamination and FRP/Rubber disbond in the composite motor case could be quantitatively measured. The defects detected in the composite motor case were in agreement with the results measured with the computed tomography and video microscope. This paper was described about the development process of the defect analysis program to convert the ultrasonic test data into the C-Scan image.

In this paper we propose the digital information hiding technique by which we use the combination of random sequence and Hadamard matrix to hide multiple information. The prior work used only one random sequence multiplied by information signal to lower the energy level of information signal and thus it is difficult for a third party to detect the information signal or jam it. But because we have to use the orthogonal code for hiding key in order to hide multiple information in the same digital image, only the use of random sequence that are not uncorrelated has some problems in the information hiding scheme. Thus we present a new information hiding scheme that can be used in hiding multiple information by the use of random sequence that spreads the energy level of the data to be hidden and Hadamard matrix that makes the random sequence uncorrelated.

In this paper, temperature-induced optical phase shifts in single-mode fibers are studied both analytically and experimentally. Temperature sensor using single-mode fiber interferometer is designed and the temperature sensitivity of the sensor system is investigated. This fiber-optic temperature sensor which employs the Mach-Zehnder arrangement is a high sensitivity sensor of phase detection type. In this type, temperature changes are ob-served as a motion of an optical interference fringe pattern. In the measurements using interferometer, one of the important problems is to detect simultaneously the number and direction of fringe displacement resulting from physical perturbations (temperature, pressure, etc.). To realize this, the array detector using multi-mode fiber is designed. By this array detector the number and direction of fringe displacement is Ineasured very conveniently.

In this paper, we design the CA-CFAR processor using a root-square approximation approach and a fixed-point operation to improve hardware complexity and reduce computational effort. We also propose CA-CFAR processor with multi-window, which is capable of concurrent parallel processing. The proposed architecture is synthesized and implemented into the FPGA and the performance is compared with the conventional processor designed by root-square libarary licensed by FPGA corporation.

다중 채널 전극 위에 세포를 성장시켜 전극면을 통해 검출되는 신경 신호의 손실을 줄이고 주파수의 변형을 줄이기 위해서 전극과 전해질의 사이의 impedance를 줄이는 것이 바람직하다. 전하 이동을 증대시키기 위해서는 낮은 impedance가 요구되며 이를 위한 전극의 개선 방안으로 전극면이 증착될 기판의 표면을 거칠게 하여 결과적으로 전극면의 표면적을 넓히는 방법을 모색하였다. 기판으로 사용되는 glass(Pyrex#7740)의 구성 물질 중에서 4%를 차지하는 $N^+$ 이온을 황산 용액으로 표면 처리하여 제거함으로써 매끈한 표면을 거칠게 하여 표면적을 넓힐 수 있다. 기판으로 사용되는 glass (pyrex#7740) $1cm{\times}1cm{\times}0.05cm$를 50%, 95% 농도의 황산 용액 내에서 각각 30분, 60분 동안 상온에서 표면처리를 진행하였다. AFM을 이용하여 표면을 관찰한 결과 황산 용액 95%에서 30분간 표면 처리를 진행한 시편에서 최대 $4000{\AA}$정도의 조도를 얻었다. 이후 동일 시편에 대해 전극으로 사용될 Ti/Au를 각각 $500{\AA}/2500{\AA}$ 증착 후 사진식각 공정으로 MEA(Multi-channel electrode array)를 제작하여 impedance를 측정한 결과, 표면 처리 후 impedance가 70% 개선되었음을 측정하였다.

To demodulate the received OFDM signal, symbol timing detection which finds symbol start in the received sample stream is required in the system initialization. In this paper, we analyze the effect of symbol timing offset and propose a new symbol timing detection algorithm, which is using the guard interval. The proposed algorithm requires low computational process and small memory size, and dose not be affected by frequency offset and phase offset. In addition, We apply this algorithm to European digital TV broadcasting model based on OFDM to evaluate the performance in AWGN and multipath fading channel by the computer simulation.

This paper proposes the KB-Fano algorithm which has lower decoding complexity by applying modified Fano-like metric bias to the conventional K-best algorithm. Additionally, an efficient K-best decoding algorithm, named the KR-Fano scheme, is proposed by jointly combining the K-reduction and the KB-Fano schemes. Simulations show that the proposed algerian provides the remarkable improvement from the viewpoints of the BER performance and the decoding complexity as compared to the conventional K-best scheme.

Purpose: In maxillofacial surgery, proper preoperative diagnosis is very important in achieving good postoperative results. Although conventional CT scans are useful for visual representations of fractures, they cannot provide direct guidance for reconstructing facial bone fractures. However, the recent technology of multislice scanning has brought many clinical benefits to CT images. Direct correlations can be made between preoperative imaging data and operative planning. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the differences between conventional CT and multidetective three-dimensional CT(3D MDCT) measurements in craniofacial deformities. Methods: From January 2005 to November 2005, MDCT scans of 41 patients were evaluated by comparing them with conventional CT scans. The 3D MDCT images were assessed and reviewed by using a simple scoring system. Results: The 3D MDCT scans offered easy interpretation, facilitated surgical planning, and clarified postoperative results in malar complex fractures, mandibular fractures, and extensive maxillofacial fractures and cranioplasty. However, 3D MDCT images were not superior to conventional CT scans in the diagnosis of blowout fractures. Conclusion: In spite of its limitations, the 3D MDCT provided additional and more comprehensive information than the conventional CT for preoperative assessment of craniofacial deformities. Therefore, the 3D MDCT can be a useful tool for diagnosis and systematic treatment planning in craniofacial skeletal deformities.

In this paper, we propose an automatic prostate cancer detection method using position, signal intensity and texture feature based on SVM in multi-parametric MR images. First, to align the prostate on DWI and ADC map to T2wMR, the transformation parameters of DWI are estimated by normalized mutual information-based rigid registration. Then, to normalize the signal intensity range among inter-patient images, histogram stretching is performed. Second, to detect prostate cancer areas in T2wMR, SVM classification with position, signal intensity and texture features was performed on T2wMR, DWI and ADC map. Our feature classification using multi-parametric MR imaging can improve the prostate cancer detection rate on T2wMR.
