In this paper, the synthesis of distributed impedance transformers is presented that is essential for power divider design, whereby a broadband power divider is designed. Transfer functions of distributed transformers are synthesized with Chebyshev approximation, and their element values are calculated for various minimum insertion losses(MIL) and ripples. Desired performance of transformers is obtained by optimizing MIL's and ripples of a transfer function. As an application example, a four-way power divider is designed that operates over 2 to 8GHz frequency range. Experimental results are shown to approach the design performance, so transformer design by distributed network synthesis proves to be useful to power divider design.

The conventional fractal decoding was required a vast amount computational complexity. Since every range blocks was implemented to IFS(iterated function system). In order to improve this, it has been suggested to that each range block was classified to iterated and non-iterated regions. If IFS region is contractive, then it can be performed a fast decoding. In this paper, a searched region of the domain in the encoding is limited to the range region that is similar with the domain block, and IFS region is a minimum. So, it can be performed a fast decoding by reducing the computational complexity for IFS in fractal image decoding.

In order to secure safe meals, the hazards of microorganisms associated with food poisoning accident should be monitored and controlled in real situations. It is necessary to determined the correlation between existing common bacteria number (aerobic plate count; APC) and RLU (relative light unit) in cookware. In this paper, we investigate the correlation between ATP (RUL) and APC (CFU) by using three types of transform (inverse, square root, log transforms) of raw data in two steps. Among these transforms, the log transform at the first step has been found to be optimal for the data of cutting board, knife, soup bowl (stainless), and tray (carbon). The square root-inverse and the square root-square root transform at the second step have been shown to be optimal respectively for the cup and for the soup bowl (carbon) data.

Current earthquake alert notification for immediate post-earthquake procedures for the critical facilities is exclusively dependent on the ground-motion intensity measures observed at the seismic station located within the site. This practice is prune to false notification due to a noise and problems of missing and poor quality records of the seismic station. The credibility of the earthquake alert notification can be enhanced by utilizing the multiple transformed records of the nearby seismic stations at other sites interconnected to the same earthquake monitoring system by a network. The time-domain transformation of the site-response between the seismic stations is implemented by convoluting the nearby records with a pair of forward and inverse FIR filters designed for the site response relative to a seismic basement. The transformed records from the nearby seismic stations can be used to estimate the ground-motion intensity measures missing at the site or to evaluate the data quality along with other various possible applications in the area of geoscience and earthquake engineering.

초음파 수신 신호의 공진주파수 변화를 이용한 온도 측정법에서 협대역 변환기를 사용한 초음파 온도측정이 가능함을 보여준다. 그리고 이를 위하여 공진주파수 변화와 온도변화간의 비례상수를 변화시켰다. 기존의 측정법은 온도변화와 기본주파수 변화와의 관계를 비례상수로 정의하였기 때문에, 최소한 3개 이상의 하모닉을 포함하는 광대역 변환기가 필요하였다. 하지만 협대역 변환기를 이용한 온도측정법에서는 비례상수를 주파수 변화비와 온도변화간의 관계로 나타내기 때문에 한 성분의 하모닉만을 측정하여도 온도측정이 가능하게 된다.

L자형 루프를 이용하여 주파수대역이 6-18 GHz인 동축-이중릿지도파관 변환기를 상용 소프트웨어인 HFSS를 이용하여 설계한 후 제작하였다. L자형 루프는 동축-구형도파관 변환기에 이미 이용되고 있는 구조로써, 이를 동축-이중릿지도파관 변환기에 적용한 것이다. 제작 후 측정결과 대역폭이 6-18 GHz로 3:1 이상을 만족하며, 최대 삽입손실이 -1.52 dB 이었다.

과장 변환기는 WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) 시스템에서 wavelength relocation을 가능하게 하여 시스템의 유연성과 효율성을 향상시킨다는 측면에서 매우 중요한 기능을 갖는다. WDM 시스템의 채널의 수가 점차 증가함에 따라 채널의 간격이 100 GHz에 이르고 있으며 향후 더욱 조밀해 질것이다. 이러한 DWDM (Dense WDM)시스템에서 사용될 수 있는 파장변환기는 100 GHz단위의 파장변환 기능과 광대역 가변 변위가 필수적이다. (중략)

In video coding at high compression rate, factal compression schemes in spatial domain have outstanding blocking artifacts and compression schemes in wavelet transform domain have rinfing artifacts at edges. In order to compensate these disadvantages, we propose a fractal video coding in wavelet transrorm domain which leads to clear edges without blocking atrifacts even at high bompression rate. The proposed method performs variable block sized motion estimation by using correlation among different subbands. Then the wavelet coefficients which are not enoded dffectively by the motion estimation are compressed by inter-frame fractal coding which predicts fine scale subbands hierarchically from the next coarser scale subbands. Computer sumulations with sev-eral test images wequences show that the proposed method shows better performance than the conventional video coding methods using fractal and wavelet.

In this paper, we propose a super-resolution algorithm using an adaptive weighted interpolation(AWI) and discrete wavelet transform(DWT). In general, super-resolution algorithms for single-image, probability based operations have been used for searching high-frequency components. Consequently, the complexity of the algorithm is increased and it causes the increase of processing time. In the proposed algorithm, we first find high-frequency sub-bands by using DWT. Then we apply an AWI to the obtained high-frequency sub-bands to make them have the same size as the input image. Now, the interpolated high-frequency sub-bands and input image are properly combined and perform the inverse DWT. For the experiments, we use the down-sampled version of the original image($512{\times}512$) as a test image($256{\times}256$). Through experiment, we confirm the improved efficiency of the proposed algorithm comparing with interpolation algorithms and also save the processing time comparing with the probability based algorithms even with the similar performance.

In this paper, we propose a new method which estimates and encrypts significant component of digital image such as digital cinema using discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT). After analyzing the characteristics of images in spatial and frequency domain, the required information for ciphering an image was extracted. Based on this information an ciphering method was proposed with wavelet transform and packetization of subbands. The proposed algorithm can encrypt images in various robust from selecting transform-level and energy threshold. From analyzing the encryption effect numerically and visually, the optimized parameter for encryption is presented. Without additional analyzing process, one can encrypt efficiently digital image using the proposed parameter. Although only 0.18% among total data is encrypted, the reconstructed image dose not identified. The paketization information of subbands and the cipher key can be used for the entire secret key.
