Image matching is widely applied in image application areas, such as remote sensing and GIS. In general, the initial set of matching points always includes outlier which affect the accuracy of image matching. The purpose of this paper is to develop a robust approach for outlier detection and removal in order to keep accuracy in image matching applications. In this paper we use three automatic outlier detection techniques of backward matching and affine transformation, and RANSAC(RANdom SAmple Consensus) algorithm. Moreover, we calculate overlapping apply and steps block-based processing for fast and efficient image matching in pre-processing steps. The suggested approach in this paper has been applied to real frame image pairs and the results have been analyzed in terms of the robustness and the efficiency.

In this paper, the 1/4 wavelength backward-wave directional coupler using coupled lines with finite metallization thickness is described. A mode-matching method, simple and fast approach to the quasi-static analysis, has been used to analyse this structure. The numerical results show that it is possible to overcome the disadvantages of weakly coupling, low directivity, and narrow strip distance non-realizable in the case of 1/4 wavelength backward-wave directional coupler with zero thickness conductor. It is also revealed that thicker metallization causes longer coupler length in the case of backward-wave symmetrical parallel coupled line directional coupler. The finite metallization thickness can be a new parameter for tight coupling in the design of backward-wave directional couplers, which enables us to design more accurate properties of monolithic microwave integrated circuits.

파장변환 소자는 최근에 급격히 발전하는 광네트웍을 구축하기 위하여 필수적인 소자로서 여러 가지 형태에 대한 연구개발이 진행되고 있다. 그중에서도, 최근에는 반도체 광증폭기로 형성된 방향성 결합기구조(semiconductor optical amplifier directional coupler)에서의 상호 이득 포화(XPM : cross-phase modulation)에 의한 파장변환에 대한 개념이 제안되고 가능성이 실험적으로 입증된 바 있다. 이런 구조의 파장변환 소자는 입력 광신호의 파워가 작을때는 위상 정합이 되어 반도체 광증폭기의 광모드가 완전히 결합되어 cross state로 변환된 파장의 광파워가 많이 출력되고, 신호 입력 파워가 증가함에 따라 결합이 감소하게 되어 Cross state에서의 출력 파워는 감소하게 된다. 이와 같은 소자는 입력 신호광과 변환된 신호광이 역방향으로 진행하는 경우 광필터가 필요없이 파장변환이 가능하고, 변환 후의 소광비가 향상되기 때문에 향후 다양한 형태로 응용될 가능성이 있으며, 적정 설계 및 성능 예측을 위해서는 시영역에서 모델링할 수 있는 방법론을 구축하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 연산자 분리 방법$^{(1)}$ 을 적용하여 상술한 파장변환기를 해석하기에 적당하도록 시영역 동적 모델을 구현하고, 파장변환 특성을 여러 가지 면에서 분석하여 보았다.

This paper describes synchronization concept and algorithm of the reverse DS-SS/TDMA control channel to handle satellite terminals which are distributed through the mission area. Military satellite control channel should have ECCM capabilities and handle more than several hundreds satcom terminals simultaneously. DS-SS/TDMA control channel can satisfy these demand but it spend much synchronization time. Proposed algorithm insert the preamble which is divided with several short sub bins prior to control data and use the parallel matched filtering searcher for each sub bin. As a result of the test, proposed algorithm can acquire most of control channel packet successfully within several milliseconds in severe jamming environment.

Recently, multiuser detection has been investigated as an interesting topic because of its capability of eliminating multiuser interference and resistance to the near-far problem. In this paper, we consider a quasi maximum likelihood detector in the reverse link system which used antenna arrays in quasi-synchronous channels. It is also shown that the proposed system can suppress the interuser interference without using the side information of the other users. It is also shown that the performance of the proposed system is superior to that of the conventional matched filter system.

In this paper, we proposed a U-shaped broadband RFID tag antenna with a parasitic element operating at UHF band. The proposed tag antenna consists of a U-shaped half wavelength dipole antenna and an inverse U-shaped parasitic element inside the U-shaped dipole antenna. In order to have good impedance matching, the commercial tag chip is attached to the lower center of the rectangular shaped feed. On the condition of VSWR<2, the tag antenna had the measured bandwidth of 4.96 % from 882 to 927 MHz and showed the gain deviation of less than 3.16 dB. On the condition of VSWR<5.8, the tag antenna satisfies the worldwide UHF RFID bandwidth and is showed the gain deviation of less than 5.07 dB. The minimum gain deviation characteristic appears near the center of bandwidth which minimizes variation of gain deviation characteristic with respect to the frequency.

Purpose: Metals induce metal artifact during CT-image for therapy planning, and it occurs images distortion, which affects the volumetric measurement and radiation calculation. In the case of using megavoltage computed tomography(MVCT), the volume of metals can be measured as similar to true volume due to minimal metal artifact outcome. In this study, radiation assessment was conducted by comparing teeth volume from images of kVCT and MVCT of head and neck cancer patients, then assigning to kVCT image to calculate radiation after obtaining the similar volume of true teeth volume from MVCT. Also, formal IR image was able to verify the accuracy of radiation calculation. Material and method: 5 head and neck cancer patients who had intensity-modulated radiation therapy from Radixact^® Series were of the subject in this study. Calculations of radiation when constraining true teeth volume out of kVCT image(A-CT) and when designated specific HU after teeth assigned using MVCT image were compared with formal IR image. Treatment planning was devised at the same constraints and mean dose was measured at the radiation assess points. The points were anterior of the teeth, between PTV and the teeth, the interior of PTV near the teeth, and the teeth where 5cm distance from PTV. Result: A difference of metals volume from kVCT and MVCT image was mean 3.49±2.61cc, maximum 7.43cc. PTV was limited to where the internal teeth were fully contained. The results of PTV dose evaluation showed that the average CI value of the kVCT treatment planning without the artifact correction was 0.86, and the average CI value of the kVCT with the artifact correction using MVCT image was 0.9. Conclusion: When the Treatment Planning was made without correction of metal artifacts, the dose of PTV was underestimated, indicating that dose uncertainty occurred. When the computerized treatment plan was made without correction of metal artifacts, the dose of PTV was underestimated, indicating that dose uncertainty occurred.
