It is absolutely necessary to measure the inlet pressure and temperature of a turbine or a compressor to evaluate the performance of it. And to measure the representative-averaged pressure and temperature of turbine inlet flow, rake is normally used. Rake has several elements for temperature and pressure and several rakes are installed at the inlet to average the radial and circumferential distribution of inlet flow. However the rakes cause unexpected losses and flow distortion at the turbine inlet which make the measured rake data different from true inlet value. So the evaluation of a turbine or a compressor performance becomes not accurate. This study suggest a correlation method which measure the loss by inlet rake and incorporates it in evaluating the performance of turbomachinery.

In the underwater acoustic communication channels, a multipath reflection becomes the cause of obstacle. To solve this problem, a rake receiver has been required for which one could take the time diversity. However, there is a concern about using incorrect path to recover signals with a high weighting value as underwater acoustic communication channels have severe time-variant property. In order to prevent these problem, a rake receiver is proposed which is based on BER(bit error rate) train sequence duration. The performance is evaluated through lake trials; there are three methods that are a proposed rake receiver, a conventional rake receiver, and a non-rake receiver. As a result, the number of bit errors in the proposed rake receiver, that of bit errors in the conventional rake receiver, and that of bit errors in the non-rake receiver is 8, 45, and 72, respectively.

The effects of strake incidence-angle on the vortex characteristics and the wing-surface pressure distribution for a double-delta wing with strake were investigated experimentally. The strake incidence-angle of negative sign(strake is pitched down from the main-wing upper-surface) increased the suction pressure of the wing-upper surface, which was the same effect of increase of angle of attack. This change of the suction pressure was caused by the closer movement of the vortex cores to the wing upper surface rather than the increase of the vortex strength.

본 논문은 레이크 수신기의 성능 개선에 관한 것으로 다중 경로 페이딩에 의한 시간 지연으로 나타나는 자기 간섭이 제거된 DS-CDMA/QPSK 신호의 성능을 분석하였다. 자기 간섭 제거를 위해 새로운 레이크 수신기를 제안하고 제안된 수신기의 시스템 성능은 차량 이동통신 환경, 실내 이동통신 환경과 실외에서 실내로 이동중인 환경으로 구분하여 레일리 페이딩 환경에서 분석하였다 제안된 레이크 수신기는 적용한 DS-CDMA 시스템의 합성 수신 SNR 증가로 오율 성능이 개선되었으며 시뮬레이션 구현으로 성능 개선을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper presents the WCDMA(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) system using the rake receiver over multipath fading and wireless mobile communication environments. The interference between the propagation paths in a multipath fading causes a serious degradation in the wireless mobile communication environments. In order to derive the path interference and reduce the fading effect the rake receiver is used. As a result, the WCDMA system using the rake receiver gives a better performance than the convention WCDMA system over a multipath fading and wireless mobile communication environments.

프로펠러 캐비테이션은 선체진동 및 수중소음에 악영향을 끼치는 주요한 원인중의 하나로 생각되어왔다. 그러나 근래 선박의 고속화와 프로펠러 하중의 증가로 캐비테이션이 전혀 없는 프로펠러의 설계개념 적용은 사실상 불가능하다. 고스큐 프로펠러는 기존의 프로펠러와 비교하여 수중소음과 저주파 압력 펄스를 약하게 하는데 유리한 것으로 인식되고 있다. 변동압력에 대하여 프로펠러 스큐와 레이크의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 체계적인 실험을 캐비테이션 터널에서 수행하였으며 본 논문에서는 여러 가지 스큐와 레이크 분포를 갖는 모형 프로펠러에 대한 캐비테이션 관찰시험과 변동압력 계측결과에 대하여 논의하고 토론하였다. 연구 결과 고스큐는 균일류 및 불균일류에서 공히 변동압력 경감에 효ㄱ과가 있음이 확인되었는데 이는 아마도 날개에서의 캐비테이션 안정성에 의한 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 레이크는 날개에서의 캐비티 크기나 거동에 큰 영향을 주지 못하였으며, 변동압력이 또한 거의 같은 수준으로 나타나는 결과를 가져왔다.

In this paper, we analyze and simulate the performance of RAKE receiver for ultra wide band (UWB) systems in indoor multipath radio channel. Pulse position modulation-time hopping (PPM-TH) signal is considered. And we also consider three types of RAKE receivers, which are ideal RAKE, selective RAKE, and partial RAKE receivers. The indoor channel is modeled as the modified Saleh and Valenzuela (SV) model which has been proposed as a UWB channel model by the IEEE group, IEEE 802.15.SG3a.

The effects of strake planform shapes on the vortex formation, interaction, and breakdown characteristics of double-delta wings were investigated through pressure measurements of upper wing surface and off-surface flow visualization. Three different shapes of strakes were attached to a delta wing respectively to form double-delta wing configurations and tested in a medium-sized subsonic wind tunnel. The results of the pressure measurements indicated that the strake planform having a higher sweep angle generated more concentrated vortex systems at upstream locations, which, however, tended to diffuse and break down much faster at the downstream locations. It was also found from the off-surface visualization results that the cause for the vortex concentration was due to the acceleration of coiling and merging processes between the wing and strake vortices.

1958년 어느날 하버드대 대학원생 프랭크 드레이크는 세계최초의 전파망원경을 황소자리의 플레이아테스 별떼를 겨냥하고 있었따. 이윽고 수신장치에는 초당8개의 필스로 된 신호가 들어와다. 외계지능이 보낸 신호로 알고 크게 들뜬 이 신출내기 천문학자는 "인류는 우주에서 외로운 존재가 아니다"라는 생각에서 한순간 두려운 가운데도 기뻐서 어쩔줄을 몰랐다. 그러나 얼마 뒤 망원경을 플레이아테스에서 떼었을때도 수신기에는 여전히 같은 신호가 들어왔다. 결국 이 신호는 가까운 곳을 지나는 항공기에서 온 것이라고 추정하게 되었으나 이런 사건을 계기로 드레이크는 '외계지능탐사'에 평생을 걸게된다.

In this paper, we considered the received signal of the wideband CDMA systems using turbo code in the multipath channel environments, and analyze the performance of the system. This study is to analyze the performance for the variable system bandwidth according to the number of branches of rake receiver by passing the received signal through a rake receiver with a turbo code in Rayleigh fading channel environments. For the design of receiver in wideband CDMA systems, we presented the efficient parameters for the number of iterative decoding and the number of branches of rake receiver.
