In this paper, an efficient hardware architecture is proposed for $32{\times}32$ inverse transform HEVC decoder. HEVC is a new image compression standard to deal with much larger image sizes compared with conventional image codecs, such as 4k, 8k images. To process huge image data effectively, it adopts various new block structures. Theses blocks consists of $4{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, $16{\times}16$, and $32{\times}32$ block. This paper suggests an effective structures to process $32{\times}32$ inverse transform. This structure of inverse transform adopts the decomposed $16{\times}16$ matrixes of $32{\times}32$ matrix, and simplified the operations by implementing multiplying with shifters and adders. Additionally the operations frequency is downed by using multicycle paths. Also this structure can be easily adopted to a multi-size transform or a forward transform block in HEVC codec.

The computing environment has changed rapidly to enable large-scale finite element models to be analyzed at the PC or workstation level, such as multi-core CPU, optimal math kernel library implementing BLAS and LAPACK, and popularization of direct sparse solvers. In this paper, the design considerations on a parallel finite element code for shared memory based multi-core CPU system are proposed; (1) the use of optimized numerical libraries, (2) the use of latest direct sparse solvers, (3) parallelism using OpenMP for computing element stiffness matrices, and (4) assembly techniques using triplets, which is a type of sparse matrix storage. In addition, the parallelization effect is examined on the time-consuming works through a large scale finite element model.

We have extracted the material parameters such as absorption coefficients of GaN, $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}N$, and Schottky contact metal Ni of Schottky Diode UV-A and B detectors using a transfer matrix method (TMM). The ratios of the absorbed light to the total incident amount at the depletion regions of GaN and $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}N$ have been calculated in order to obtain the spectral responsivity. Absorption coefficients of the materials have been obtained by fitting the simulated data with measured data. The depletion layer thickness has been obtanied by capacitance-voltage measurement. The results pave the way for the optimum design of UV Schottky detectors. Since the absorption coefficient of the Ni electrode is very high, its thickness is a major factor that determines the responsivity. It is possible to attain improved UV detectors using thinnest possible Ni electrodes and wide depletion regions of GaN and $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}N$.

This paper proposes the hardware architecture of high performance multi-mode 2D forward transform for HEVC which has same number of cycles for processing any type of four TUs and yield high throughput. In order to make the original image which has high pixel and high resolution into highly compressed image effectively, the transform technique of HEVC supports 4 kinds of pixel units, TUs and it finds the optimal mode after performs each transform computation. As the proposed transform engine uses the common computation operator which is produced by analyzing the relationship among transform matrix coefficients, it can process every 4 kinds of TU mode matrix operation with 35cycles equally. The proposed transform block was designed by Verilog HDL and synthesized by using TSMC 0.18um CMOS processing technology. From the results of logic synthesis, the maximum operating frequency was 400MHz and total gate count was 214k gates which has the throughput of 10-Gpels/cycle with the $4k(3840{\times}2160)@30fps$ image.

This paper propose the robust stability algorithm for controlling a hybrid magnetic bearing system. The control object in the magnetic bearing system enables the rotor to rotate without any physical contact by using magnetic force. Generally, the system dynamics of the magnetic bearing system has severe nonlinearity and uncertainty so that it is not easy to obtain the control objective. For solving these problems, we propose the fuzzy modelling and robust control algorithm for hybrind magnetic bearing system. The sufficient conditions for robust controller are obtained in terms of solutions to linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Simulation results for HMB are demonstrated to visualize the feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we investigated the performance of directional and omnidirectional precoding schemes when transmitting to improve downlink performance in massive MIMO. Omnidirectional precoding was used to broadcast a common signal, such as a synchronization or control signal, to all users. The main purpose of omnidirectional precoding is to design the precoding matrix so that the signal transmitted in the downlink is the same in all directions and emitted with maximum energy. We propose a flexible omnidirectional precoding method for full-dimensional massive MIMO that can set the spatial coverage range to less than 120 degrees. The constraints of omnidirectionality of all antennas, equal transmit power, and maximum transmit rate are used to design the encoding matrix of the proposed method. The performance was evaluated in terms of spatial coverage by considering changing the spatial coverage of the antenna array by changing the distance between neighboring antennas in the antenna array.

본 논문에서는 비선형구조물의 위상최적화를 위하여 개발된 요소 연결 매개법 (Element Connectivity Parameterization Method)을 이용하여 기하비선형 구조물의 고유진동수(Eigenfrequency)를 최적화하는 연구를 소개한다. 기존의 밀도를 기반으로 한 위상최적화기법은 비선형 구조물의 위상최적화를 수행할 때 약한 탄성계수를 가지는 요소가 대변형을 일으켜 전체 강성행렬(Tangent Stiffness Matrix)이 양정정성(Positive definiteness)를 잃어버리는 문제점이 있어서 위상최적화를 수행하기 어렵다. 이 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 최근에 요소 연결 매개법(Element Connectivity Parameterization Method)이 개발되었다. 이 요소 연결 매개법은 요소의 강성을 설계하는 것이 아니라 요소의 연결성을 설계하는 기법으로 이를 이용하여 비선형 구조물의 위상최적화를 효과적으로 수행할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 요소 연결 매개법을 동적인 문제에 적용하기 위한 연구를 수행하며 이를 이용하여 비선형 구조물의 고유진동수를 최적화 하는 위상최적화 문제에 적용하였다. 비선형 수치 예제를 통하여 기하 비선형 구조물의 고유진동수를 최대화를 통하여 기하 비선형 구조물의 강성최대화 문제와 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
