The demand for recognizing the color as well as the object shape is increasing to use the detailed information, because-the expense of color input/output devices become cheap. The research on the color correction should be researched for the exact color presentation and color reproduction of color input/output systems. In this paper, we researched on the color correction of color scanner. The characterization of color scanner is a two step process of gray-balancing and color transformation. The decoupling of the gray-balancing from the color transformation enables the portability of the scanner characterization. We used the least square methods for the line fitting and the Neural Network for the storage space and computation speed. The output of Neural Network is similar to the target value in three-dimensional tristimulus space. The proposed color correction method can be used for all scanners of a manufacturer's model because of the portability.

일반적으로 태양전지 및 반도체 공정에서 불순물 주입 과정인 도핑(Doping)공정은 크게 몇 가지 방법으로 구분해 볼 수 있다. 소성로(Furnace)를 이용하여 열을 통해 불순물을 웨이퍼 내부로 확산시키는 열확산 방법과 진공 챔버 내부에서 전자기장을 걸어 이온을 극도로 가속시켜 진행하는 이온 주입(Ion implantation)이나 이온 샤워(Ion shower)를 이용한 도핑 방법이 있다. 또한 최근 자외영역 파장의 레이저광을 조사하여 광화학 반응에 의해 도펀트 물질를 분해하는 동시에 조사 부분을 용해하여 불순물을 도포하는 기법인 레이져 도핑(Laser doping) 방법이 개발중이다. 그러나 레이져나 이온 도핑 공정기술은 고가의 복잡한 장비가 필요하여 매출 수익성 및 대량생산에 비효율적이며 이온 주입에 의한 박막의 손상을 치료하기 위한 후속 어닐링(Post-annealing) 과정이 요구되는 단점을 가지고 있고 열확산 도핑 방법은 정량적인 불순물 주입 제어가 어렵고 시간 대비 생산량의 한계가 있다. 반면 대기압 플라즈마로 도핑을 할 경우 기존에 진공개념을 벗어나 공정상에서 보다 저가의 생산을 가능케 할 뿐아니라 멀티 플라즈마 소스 개발로 이어진다면 시간적인 측면에서도 단연 단축시킬 수가 있어 보다 대량 생산 공정에 효과적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 새로운 도핑 방법인 대기압 플라즈마를 이용한 도핑 공정기술의 가능성을 제안하고자 도핑 공정 시 웨이퍼 내 전류 패스(Current path)에 대한 메카니즘을 연구하였다. 대기압 플라즈마 방전 시 전류가 웨이퍼 내부에 흐를 때 발생되는 열을 이용하여 도핑이 되는 형식이란 점을 가정하고 이 점에 대한 원리를 증명하고자 실험을 진행하였다. 실험 방식은 그라운드(Ground) 내 웨이퍼의 위치와 웨이퍼 내 방전 위치에 따라 적외선 화상(IR image: Infrared image) 화상을 서로 비교하였다. 적외선 화상은 실험 조건에 따라 화상 내 고온의 표식이 상이하게 변하는 경향성을 나타내었다. 이 고온의 표식이 전류 패스라는 점을 증명하고자 시뮬레이션을 통해 자기장의 전산모사를 한 결과 전류 패스의 수직 방향으로 자기장이 형성이 됨을 확인하였으며 이는 즉 웨이퍼 내부 전류 패스에 따라 도핑이 된다는 사실을 명백히 말해주는 것이며 전류 패스 제어의 가능성과 이에 따라 SE(Selective Emitter) 공정 분야 응용 가능성을 보여준다.

Crosslinked poly(glycerol-co-malate)s were synthesized from L-malic acid in Krebs cycle and glycerol. The synthesized polymer was identified by FT-IR spectroscopy. Swelling degrees of the copolymer hydrogels were increased with an increase in pH of the aqueous solution. Hydrolytic behaviors of the crosslinked copolymers were investigated in various pH buffer solutions at 37${\circ}C$. The Hydrolysis of the copolymers proceeded faster with increasing pH of the aqueous solution. Releasing behaviors of the model drug such as diclofenac monosodium salt were also measured in various pH aqueous solutions at 37${\circ}C$. The release concentration of diclofenac monosodium salt from the hydrogel systems was increased with increasing pH. These facts indicate that the unreacted carboxyl and hydroxyl groups in the copolymers are greatly affected by pH in the conditions.

This paper proposes an area-efficient pipeline FFT processor for MIMO-OFDM systems with four transmitting and four receiving antennas. Since the MIMO-OFDM system transmits multiple data streams, the complexity for the MIMO-OFDM system with a single-channel FFT processor increases linearly with the increase of the number of transmit channels. The proposed FFT processor is based on multi-channel structure, and therefore it can efficiently support multiple data streams. With the mixed radix algorithm, the number of non-trivial multiplications of the proposed FFT processor is decreased. The proposed FFT processor is synthesized with CMOS $0.18{\mu}m$ process and reduces the logic gates by 25% over a 4-channel Radix-4 multi-path delay commutator (R4MDC) FFT processor. Since the MIMO-OFDM FFT processor is one of the largest modules in the systems, the proposed FFT processor will be a vast contribution improvement to the low complexity design of MIMO-OFDM systems.

Dynamic responses were measured using long-term monitoring system for Uldolmok tidal current pilot power plant which is one of jacket-type offshore structures. Among the dynamic quantities, the tilt angle was chosen because the low frequency response components can be precisely measured by dynamic tiltmeter, and the natural frequencies and modal damping ratio were successfully identified using proposed LS-FDD (least squared frequency domain decomposition) method. And the effects of tidal height and tidal current velocity on the variation of natural frequencies and modal damping ratios were investigated in time and frequency domain. Also the non-parametric models were tested to model the relationship between tidal conditions and modal properties such as natural frequencies and damping ratios.

A competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was developed to detect and quantify levels of the fungicide metalaxyl in crops. Antiserum against metalaxyl was demonstrated in rabbits immunized with metalaxyl-human serum albumin(HSA) conjugate. Metalaxyl-protein conjugate was prepared by mixed anhydride and peptide coupling method with EDC. In this assay, metalaxyl-ovalbumin(OA) was $coated(8{\mu}g/ml)$ on the microtiter plate, which was incubated for 1 hr at $4^{\circ}C$ or 4 hr at $37^{\circ}C$ with diluted antiserum(1:2,000). The optimum volume ratio of antigen and antibody mixture was 0.5: 1, which was incubated for 1 hr at $20^{\circ}C$. The detection of metalaxyl bound on the surface of wells was determined by the reaction(30 min) of antirabbit Ig G-peroxidase conjugate with its substrate.

Recently, aegis of authentication and creator's copyright has become a matter of great concern by the diffusion of multimedia technique and the growth of the internet and the easily duplicated property of digital data. Consequently, many active researches have been made to protect copyright and to assure integrity by inserting watermark into the digital data. In this paper, watermark is repeated through the entire image and adapted to the content of the image. It is achieved by an underlying process of transforming the digital image to the frequency domain by wavelet transform, which has three (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) directions and Multi-resolution features, and then choosing frequency area inferior to the human perceptibility, and significant for invisible and robust watermark. Watermark is inserted by utilizing Human Visual System (HVS) feature in the wavelet transformed frequency domain. Especially, watermark inserted into the high frequency concentrated textual area makes itself invisible.

This paper proposes a virtual target overlay technique for a realistic training simulation which projects a virtual target on ground-based CCD images according to an appointed scenario. This method creates a realistic 3D model for instructors by using high resolution GeoTIFF (Geographic Tag Image File Format) satellite images and DTED(Digital Terrain Elevation Data), and it extracts road areas from the given CCD images for both instructors and trainees, Since there is much difference in observation position, resolution, and scale between satellite Images and ground-based sensor images, feature-based matching faces difficulty, Hence, we propose a moving synchronization technique that projects the targets on sensor images according to the moving paths marked on 3D satellite images. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with satellite and sensor images of Daejoen.

The failure analysis of scales deposited on automotive thermostat housing has been carried out. Observations using energy dispersive spectroscopy and electron probe micro analyzer indicate that the main components of scales are some of additives of coolant used. For a detailed investigation of organic matters pyrolysis-GC/MS is employed. The result shows that the main organic component is benzoic acid and furthermore, a small amount of acetophenone, benzene and phenyl group is detected. Based on the results of failure analysis performed, the scales on automotive thermostat housing appear due to the deposition of coolant components, followed by crevice corrosion, into gap between housing and rubber horse. New accelerated test methodology, which could mimic the scale formation and the crevice corrosion on thermostat housing, is developed considering the above results. In order to reproduce the real operating conditions, the accelerating factors, i.e. temperature and humidity, are changed and programmed. The reproducibility of the accelerated test proposed is confirmed after analyzing the scales obtained from the accelerated test.

This paper proposes an low-complexity soft-output multiple-input multiple-output (soft-MIMO) detection algorithm for achieving soft-output maximum-likelihood (soft-ML) performance under max-log approximation. The proposed algorithm is based on a parallel tree-search (PTS) applying a channel ordering by a sorted-QR decomposition (SQRD) with altered sort order. The empty-set problem that can occur in calculation of log-likelihood ratio (LLR) for each bit is solved by inserting additional nodes at each search level. Since only the closest node is inserted among nodes with opposite bit value to a selected node, the proposed node insertion scheme is very efficient in the perspective of computational complexity. The computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is approximately 37-74% of that of existing algorithms, and from simulation results for a $4{\times}4$ system, the proposed algorithm shows a performance degradation of less than 0.1dB.
