In this paper, the prototype of one-channel gamma-ray spectroscope for automatic radiopharmaceutical systhesis system was designed and characterized. The prototype employed CZT (CdZnTe) spear detector for gamma-ray detection and employed analog-type signal processing method. A radioactive sample Co-60 was used for measuring performance of the gamma-ray spectroscope and energy spectrum is gained with bandwidth of 1173keV. The analog board is made up of SF (shaping filter) and PHA (peak and hold amplifier) for shaping CZT output signal appropriately and ADC (analog to digital converter) and FPGA (field programmable gate array) for drawing gamma-ray spectrum by counting the digitalized gamma-ray signal data.

Due to the rapid growth of mobile communication services, many studies have been performed on the biological effects of EMF(Electromagnetic field) exposure. However, it is not easy to create the field uniformity in radio frequency. To overcome this difficulty, the electric field and SAR(Specific Absorption Rate) distribution is developed to measure the whole body exposure system. In this paper, we developed the whole body exposure system for in-vivo study utilizing reverberation chamber which has a high possibility of practical use by substituting previous the EMC chamber. The field uniformity in the test area of the designed reverberation chamber was satisfied by the simulation and measurement data. In animal study of the whole body exposure for a mouse, the results of FDTD simulation were compared with those of measurement to confirm SAR under the electromagnetic exposure. We analyze the electric field distribution in the interior of the reverberation chamber and treat these results in statistical manner. In the CDMA frequency band(PCS ＆ Cellular band), an average value of the whole body SAR and local peak value for a experimental mouse were presented for various input power.

POWER PC series are common to the Central Processing Unit for Military Single Board Computer. Among them, G4 group, which contains the 74xx series supported by Freescale manufacturer is mainly used in the Military applications. We focus on the Interface between memory and controller. PCB stacking method, component routing, impedance matching and harsh environment for Military spec are the main constraints for implementation. Also, we developed memory as a module for the consideration of Military environments. The overall type of SBC should be designed by the form of 6U VME or 3U VME. Therefore this study suggests the electrically optimum Interface matching, Artwork technology based on the signal cross over and PCB stacking method on the harsh environment.

This paper describes implementation of electonic seal (E-Seal) of a container based on ISO 18185 standard and development of monitoring systems checking E-Seal device and cargo states in the container for secure transportation from departure to destination. For lack of definition on confidentiality support in ISO 18185-4 standard, it is vulnerable to security attack such as sniffing. To cope with this, we developed encryption/decryption functions implementing RC5 and AES-128 standards and compared their performance. Experimental results showed that RC5 outperformed AES-128 in terms of time delay. In addition, RC5 had an advantage under the condition of large sized messages as well as CPUs with low performance. However, the portion of encryption/decryption processing time was less than 1 percent of response time including communication delay between E-Seal tags and readers. Hence, the performance difference between RC5 and AES-128 standards was trivial, which revealed that both specifications were allowable in developed systems.

According to recent report, global mobile data traffic is expected to increase by 11 times from 2016 to 2020. Moreover, this growth is expected to be driven mainly by mobile video traffic which is expected to account for about 70% of the total mobile data traffic. To cope with enormous mobile traffic, we need to understand video traffic's characteristic. Recently, the repetitive requests of some popular content such as popular YouTube videos cause a enormous network traffic overheads. If we constitute a network with the nodes capable of content caching based on the content popularity, we can reduce the network overheads by using the cached content for every request. Through device-to-device, multicast, and helpers, the video throughput can improve about 1.5~2 times and prefix caching reduces the playback delay by about 0.2~0.5 times than the conventional method. In this paper, we introduce some recent work on content popularity-based caching techniques in wireless networks.

There has been demand for many magnetic sensor applications, and to develop low-cost devices, it is critical to accurately understand the behavior of the magnetic field and the characteristics of magnetic sensors and target devices during initial development phase. The magnetic field has been known to have very complicated nonlinear data to calculate, so it has required expensive computing machines or research to accurately calculate the magnetic sensor values. However, this paper introduces a characteristic of a magnetic sensor called the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and proposes simple and sufficient approaches to develop a wearable joystick device using a magnetic sensor. Particularly, this paper introduces the design factors for how to properly develop a low-cost wearable joystick device using magnetic sensors after carefully considering the mechanism of a real joystick and the characteristics of magnetic sensors. As a result, user test results are provided to show how users can operate this new wearable joystick device.

The purpose of this study is the development and application of a high resolution ultrasonic wave imaging system to detect discontinuity plane in lab-scale rock models. This technique is based on received time series which capture the multiple reflections at interface. This study includes the fundamental aspects of ultrasonic wave propagation in rock mass, the selection of the optimal ultrasonic wave transducer, data gathering, a signal processing, imaging methods, and experiments. Experiments are carried out by the horizontal movement and rotation devices. Experimental studies show the discontinuity is well detected by the horizontal movement and rotation devices under water. Furthermore, the discontinuity and the cavity on the plaster block are identified by the rotation device. This study suggests that the new method may be an economical and effective tool for the detection of the discontinuity on rock mass.

Since the area of smart home has been attracting attention, researches have been conducted to control syntagmatically various electronic products with a single remote controller. Previous researches have developed a dedicated controller or an application that acts as a remote controller and controls electronic products by configuring control screen for each product. However, these approaches are not suitable for controlling various electronic products that should be controlled by configuring separate control screens for each product. In this paper, we propose a web-based remote control platform. We define universal user interfaces applicable to various devices by categorizing user interactions of electronic goods and implement them as APIs. By applying the APIs to IPTV and car navigation devices we show that it is possible to control them through only a web browser. We also propose a method to group multiple control requests in order to efficiently handle consecutive control requests and show the improved response time and data usage.

3D motion analysis system which is currently widely used for walking analysis has limitations due to both necessity of wide space for many cameras for measurement, high cost, and complicated preparation procedure, which results in low accessability in use and application for clinical diagnosis. To resolve this problem, we developed 3-dimensional wireless ambulatory measurement system based on inertial sensor which can be easily applicable for clinical diagnosis for lower extremity deformity and developed system was evaluated by applying for 10 elderly people with diabetes mellitus. Developed system was composed of wireless ambulatory measurement module that consists of inertial measurement unit (IMU) which measures the gait characteristics, microcontroller which collects and precesses the inertial data, bluetooth device which transfers the measured data to PC and Window's application for storing and processing and analyzing received data. This system will utilize not only to measure lower extremity (foot) problem conveniently in clinical medicine but also to analyze 3D motion of human in other areas as sports science, rehabilitation.
