SAR calculation method following the Mobi-Kids study protocol is analyzed and evaluation method of cumulative RF dose from mobile phones which have been used by a subject of case and control groups is proposed. An SAR database is built by calculating SAR distributions in 4 head models at different ages for representative phone models with the same conducted power. To obtain SAR distribution in a subject's head for a specific commercial phone which had/have been used by him/her, an SAR correction factor using SAR compliance test results is determined. Cumulative dose is calculated by considering mobile phone characteristics and use pattern such as call time and laterality(right and left).

In this research, the fuel cell system model capable of generating codes in real time was developed to construct of a HIL (Hardware-In-the-Loop) for a SOFC-powered ship. Moreover, the effects of the distribution of the exhaust gas flow rates in a stack, the flow rates of fuels and temperature of air supplied on the temperature characteristics of fuels supplied to the cathode and the anode, the output power of the stack and system efficiency are examined to minimize the temperature difference between fuels supplied to the stack used in a 500kW SOFC system using methane as a fuel. As a result, the temperatures of fuels supplied to the cathode and the anode maintain at 830K when the opening factor of three-way valve located at outlet of turbine is 0.839. Also the process for optimization of methane flow rate considering the fuel cell stack and system efficiency is required to increase the temperatures of fuels supplied to the stack.

Nuclear design characteristics of duplex burnable poison rod were evaluated based on 24 month cycle fuel for Korean Standard Nuclear Plant. A fuel assembly with duplex burnable poison rod was designed for an equivalent assembly to 16 gadolinia BPs. Duplex BP is composed of inner region of natural U-12wt%Gd$_2$O$_3$ and outer shell of 4.95wt%UO$_2$-2wt%Er$_2$O$_3$. In order to compare this duplex option, assemblies with 140 erbia pins were designed as an alternative option. The variation of k-infinitive, rod worth, pin peaking and MTC were compared. Duplex BP had the better neutronic performance than gadolinia BP in all parameters. However, Duplex BP was worse than erbia BP in the aspect of safety.

In this paper, we proposed the new bridge combination detection method for three dimensional piezoresistive silicon accelerometer, and the accelerometer with SOI structures was fabricated by bulk micromachining technology for using higher temperature than $200^{\circ}C$. The sensitivities of fabricated accelerometer for X, Y and Z-axis acceleration were about 8mV/V G, 8mV/V G and 40mV/V G. The nonlinearity of the output voltage was 1.6%FS and cross-axis sensitivity was within 4.6%. We confirmed that the three bridges detection method is very simple and the output characteristics of this accelerometer were similar to arithmetic circuit method accelerometer. The temperature characteristics of SOI structure accelerometer showed high operating temperature and good stability. And the temperature coefficient of offset voltage and sensitivity were $1033ppm^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and $1145ppm^{\circ}C$ respectively.

In this work, we investigated hydrogen content, bond structure, and electrical properties of a-Si:H films prepared by ECR plasma CVD as a function of pressure. In general, the photo sensitivity of a-Si:H films prepared by CVD method decreases as the deposition rate increases, but the photo sensitivity of a-Si:H films prepared by ECR plasma deposition method increases as the deposition rate increases. In the same condition of microwave power, the ratio of $SiH_4/H_2$, and pressure, though film thickness increases linearly with deposition time and hydrogen content in the film is constant, photo conductivity can be decreased because $SiH_2$ bond is made more than SiH bond in the short reaction time. According to increase pressure in the chamber, SiH bond in the film increase and optical energy gap decrease. So, photo conductivity can be increased. But photo sensitivity decreased as dark conductivity increase. It must be grown in the condition of low pressure and hydrogen gas for taking the a-Si:H film of high quality.

In this paper, we present a framework which enables users to interact naturally with hand gestures on a digital table. In general tabletop applications, one gesture is mapped to one function or command. Therefore, users should know these relations, and make predefined gestures as input. In contrast, users can make input gesture without cognitive load in our system. Instead of burdening users, the system possesses knowledge about gesture interaction, and infers proactively users' gestures and intentions. When users make a gesture on the digital surface, the system begins to analyze the gestures and designs the response according to users' intention.

This paper discusses the design of self-oscillating mixer type low noise down converter using the microwave field effect transistor. The mixer is consists of local oscillator in which high stability dielectric resonator and band pass filter to get rid of spurious oscillation at intermediate frequency stage. The microstrip antenna was integrated in the same substrate which generate 12.3GHz and low noise amplifier was also added after antenna using 3 stage of high electron mobility transistors. The output frequency from the local oscillator was chosen as 11.3GHz for the Ku-band application. The measured phase noise was -804dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset frequency, and the gain was 7～12dB in frequency range from 12.0GHz to 12.7GHz. The noise figure at intermediate frequency stage was 64H. The designed model shows less conversion loss than previous diode type mixer. The proposed mixer can be used in digital satellite broadcasting and communication system and expected to use in next generation low noise block design.

A biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor loaded with Candida sp. was designed and constructed for the quick measurement of the concentrations of biologically assimilable organic substances dissolved in water. The sensitivity of the sensor was higher for glucose, acetic acid, aspartic acid and glutamic acid than that for lactose, sucrose and lactic acid. The sensitivities of BOD sensors loaded with $Zn^{2+}$ tolerant and intact strains were almost identical while the sensitivity of sensor loaded with Cd$^{2+}$ tolerant strain was considerably lower. The sensitivities of the sensors loaded with intact or $Zn^{2+}$ tolerant strains did not change with the concentration of $Cd^{2+}$ in the aqueous solution while the sensitivity of the sensor loaded with $Cd^{2+}$ tolerant strain decreased slightly. The sensitivities of the sensors loaded with intact strain, $Zn^{2+}$ or $Cd^{2+}$ tolerant strains were not affected by the concentration of $Zn^{2+}$ in the aqueous solution.n.

This paper presents development of a small size LNA operating at 824 ∼ 849 MHz used for a receiver of a CELLULAR CDMA Base station and a transponder. Using resistive decoupling circuits, a signal at low frequency is dissipated by a resistor. This design method increases the stability of the LNA and is suitable for input stage matching. The LNA consists of low noise GaAs FET ATF-10136 and internally matched VNA-25. The LNA is fabricated with both the RF circuit and the self-bias circuits in aluminum housing. As a result, the characteristics of the LNA implemented here shows above 35dB in gain and below 0.9dB in noise figure, 18.6dBm P1dB power, a typical two tone IM3, -31.17dB with single carrier backed off 10dB from P1dB.

It is well known that the MDVR beamforming outperforms the conventional delay-sum beamformer in the sense of noise rejection and bearing resolution. However, the MDVR method requires long observation time to achieve high frequency resolution. The STMV method uses the steered covariance matrix of sensor data, so it has an ability to form an adaptive weight vector from a single time-series snapshot. But it uses the same weight vector across all frequencies. In this paper, we propose an SSMV method. The basic idea of the SSMV method is to decompose a full frequency band into several subbands to acquire a weight vector for each subband, individually. Also the wrap may be divided into several subarrays in order to reduce a computational load and the bandwidth of each subband. Simulations using real sea trial data show that the proposed SSMV method has good performance with short observation time.
