Lasers for optical broadband communication systems should have excellent frequency selectivity and modal stability. DFB lasers have low lasing frequency shift during high speed current modulation. In this paper, when a refractive index grating and a gain grating are simultaneously present in a DFB laser having a wavelength of 1.55 ㎛, the dielectric film is coated so that reflection does not occur on the right mirror surface, so that ρ_r=0. For the first mode, which requires a minimum gain at the threshold, the beam distribution of the oscillation mode in the longitudinal direction and the radiated power ratio P_l/P_r were analyzed and compared for the cases of the phase of ρ_l=π and π/2. If the phase of ρ_l=π, in order to obtain a low threshold current and high frequency stability, κL should be greater than 8. In the case of the phase of ρ_l=π/2, for low threshold current, κL is necessary to be 1.0, where the oscillation frequency coincides with the lattice frequency. DFB lasers with an anti-reflection coated mirror have excellent mode selectivity than 1.55um DFB lasers with two mirror facets

Proton therapy facility, which is recently installed at National Cancer Center in Korea, generally produces a large amount of radiation near cyclotron due to the secondary particles and radioisotopes caused by collision between proton and nearby materials during the acceleration. Although the level of radiation by radioisotope decreases in length of time, radiation exposure problem still exists since workers are easily exposed by a low level of radiation for a long time due to their job assignment for maintenance or repair of the proton facility. In this paper, the working environment near cyclotron, where the highest radiation exposure is expected, was studied by measuring the degree of radiation and its duration for an appropriate level of protective action guide. To do this, we measured the radiation change in the graphite based energy degrader, the efficiency of transmitted beam and relative activation degree of the transmission beam line. The results showed that while the level of radiation exposure around cyclotron and beam line during the operation is much higher than the other radiation therapy facilities, the radiation exposure rate per year is under the limit recommended by the law showing 1~3 mSv/year.

목적 : 일반적으로 세기조절방사선치료 조사면의 작은 조각 크기에 대해, 이상적인 플루언스 지도 혹은 치료계획장치로부터의 최적화된 결과에 가까운 선량분포에서 더 좋은 leaf sequence를 얻을 수 있다. 한편, 치료중 장기의 움직임이 가장 작은 조각 크기의 선택을 방해하는 문제는 항상 존재한다. 게다가, 전통적인 정지 조사면과 달리 표적이 움직이는 동안 조사면 자체도 움직이므로 움직이는 표적에 대한 세기조절방사선치료의 경우에서 적절한 표적 마진에 관한 질문이 제기되어왔다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 조각 크기에 대한 치료중 표적 움직임의 효과를 연구하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 세기조절방사선치료 플루언스 지도에 대해, 다양한 크기 - 0.5$\times$0.5, 1.0$\times$1.0, $1.5\times$1.5, 2.0$\times$2.0, 3.0$\times$3.0, 4.0$\times$4.0, 5.0$\times$5.0 $ extrm{cm}^2$ - 의 정사각형 패턴들을 설계하였고, Leaf sequence 는 step-and-shoot 빔 전달 방법을 이용하였다. 인접 조각들 사이의 세기 비율은 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0로 하였고, 표적 움직임은 범위가 0.5-2.0 cm인 사인곡선 형태로 가정하였다. 움직임 묘사를 위해 동적 leaf 의 움직임이 표적의 움직임 을 반영하도록 계산되었고 움직임의 효과를 분석하기 위해 필름선량측정을 수행하였다. 결과 : 인접 조각의 세기 비율은 모든 경우에서 저하되었고, 호흡 진폭의 반보다 작은 조각 크기에 대한 선량분포는 임상적으로 유의할만큼 저하된 세기 지도를 보였다. 조각에 대해 방사선 조사시간의 두 호흡주기이상에 대해서는, 표적 마진 주위의 선량분포가 통상적인 정지 조사면에서와 같았다. 결론 : 플루언스 지도에서 세기조절방사선치료 조각의 최소 크기는 치료중 장기 움직임을 고려한 후 선택되어야 한다. 조각에 대한 방사선 조사시간의 두 호흡주기이상에 대해서는, 표적 마진을 기존의 정지 조사면과 같게 정의할 수 있었다.

As a part of the 21st Century Frontier Projects, Korea is building a proton linear accelerator complex. Using the discrete choice conjoint analysis method, this study evaluates the complex. Multinomial logit model is employed as an econometric model and Hicks' compensating variation is adopted as a welfare measure. The results show that an average willingness-to-pay (WTP) of a would-be user measured by the compensating variation is estimated by 1.93 million Korean won per hour for the specification of the complex being built.

Geant4 is compatible with the Windows operating system in C++ language use, enabling interface functions that link DICOM or software. It was simulated to address the basic structure of the simulation using Geant4/Gate code and to specifically verify the density composition and lung cancer process in the human phantom. It was visualized using the Gate Graphic System, i.e. openGL, Ray Tracer: Ray Tracing by Geant4 Tracing, and using Geant4/Gate code, lung cancer is modeled in the human phantom area in 3D, 4D to verify the simulation progress. Therefore, as a large number of new functions are added to the Gate Code, it is easy to implement accurate human structure and moving organs.

We propose a new method for tuning of center wavelength in photorefractive filter using $LiNbO_3$ crystal doped with 0.015Wt.% Fe. through the filter bandwidth property analysis using the geometrical method, a new wavelength selectivity theory was presented. In this scheme, the tuning of the center wavelength can be achieved by the real time incident angle control of the received heam, which was gotten by the spatial light modulator. So, tuning time depend on the response time of the SLM and results in the high speed turing. Because the use of thermally fixed grating in our filter, it has uniform diffraction property to the all filtering wavelength. Designed tunable filter has 4nm bandwidth and composed of the three channel with 10nm space. From the optical experiment, we get the 4.5nm, 4.25nm, 4nm bandwidth and 1530.5nm, 1540.5nm, 1549.5nm center wavelength respectively.

In this paper, we assume the uplink multiuser MIMO system based on FDD. Considering the implementation of practical system, Antenna selection and Transmit Beamforming scheme are suggested. System model of both two schemes are introduced and the scheduling algorithm which approaches the optimal performance with affordable computational complexity is proposed for each transmission scheme. Simulation results show that the sum-rate of the proposed low complexity scheduler approaches the performance of brute-force scheduler which is believed to be the optimal scheme.

AESA radar is able to instantaneously and adaptively position and control the beam, and such adaptive beam pointing of AESA radar enables to remarkably improve the multi-mission capability. For this reason, Radar Resource Management(RRM) becomes new challenging issue. RRM is a technique efficiently allocating finite resources, such as energy and time to each task in an optimal and intelligent way. Especially radar beam scheduling is the most critical component for the success of RRM. In this paper, we proposed a rule-based scheduling algorithm and Simulated Annealing(SA) based scheduling algorithm, which are alternatively selected and applied to beam scheduler according radar load status in real-time. The performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated on the multi-function radar scenario. As a result, we showed that our proposed algorithm can process a lot of beams at the right time with real time capability, compared with applying only rule-based scheduling algorithm. Additionally, we showed that the proposed algorithm can save scheduling time remarkably, compared with applying only SA-based scheduling algorithm.

We have implemented a planar integrated optics for the fractional Fourier transform (FRT) which has recently been developed as a generalized form of the conventional Fourier transform. FRT optical systems provide versatile tools for analyzing signals and designing hardwares, but require high accuracy and stability in the arrangement of optical components because of their shift-variant characteristic. The planar optical FRT setup composed of free-space optical components integrated on a single glass block makes the FRT of 2-dimensional(2-D) input patterns through the 3-D glass-space. Therefore, taking advantage of the compactness, easy alignment and thermal/mechanical stability, the planar optics can provide a useful approach to realizing an optical fractional correlation system in a practical way. In the experiment, we have obtained accurate FRT results by using the planar integrated optics with 4 different fractional orders of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0.

Antenna arrays at base-stations can be used to transmit and receive information selectively in space by reducing the interference effects. In this paper, a new model of locally scattered signals in the vicinity of mobiles is proposed, and under this model the weights of the beamformer are obtained. Computer simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme shows an excellent performance and works well even in the urban environment where there exist many multipath propagations with wide angular spread.
