Nonreciprocal twin-toroid ferrite phase shifter is designed, fabricated, and tested. ABCD matrix method is used to design the phase shifter and to compute its optimum dimen- sions. Quarter-wave two-section impedance matching transformers are utilized in order to match the impedance of the empty guide to that of the ferrite-loaded guide. Driving circuit controls the current needed to drive the phase shifter. Measured insertion loss and VSWR characteristics within the operaring band(9.1GHz ~ 9.5GHz) are less than 1.2dB and 1.15, respectively. After temperature compensation technique is appied to the phase shifter, the measured phase error of the phase shifter is less than $\pm4$ between $-10^{\circ}C\;and\;+60^{\circ}C$.

Strain imaging in a medical ultrasound imaging system can differentiate the cancer or tumor in a lesion that is stiffer than the surrounding tissue. In this paper, a strain imaging technique using quasistatic compression is implemented that estimates the displacement between pre- and postcompression ultrasound echoes and obtains strain by differentiating it in the spatial direction. Displacements are computed from the phase difference of complex baseband signals obtained using their autocorrelation, and errors associated with converting the phase difference into time or distance are compensated for by taking into the center frequency variation. Also, to reduce the effect of operator's hand motion, the displacements of all scanlines are normalized with the result that satisfactory strain image quality has been obtained. These techniques have been incorporated into implementing a medical ultrasound strain imaging system that operates in real time.

We carried out studies on InSAR techniques for time-series deformation monitoring using multi-temporal SAR. The PSInSAR method using permanent scatterer is much more complicate than the SBAS because it includes many non-linear equation due to the input of wrapped phase. It is conformed the PS algorithm is very sensitive to even PSC selection. On the other hand, the SBAS method using interferogram of small baseline subset is simple but sensitive to the accuracy of unwrapped phase. The SBAS is better method for expecting not significant unwrapping error while PSInSAR is more proper method for expecting local deformation within very limited area. We used 51 ERS-1/2 SAR data during 1992-2000 over Las Vegas, USA for the comparison between PSInSAR and SBAS. Both PSInSAR and SBAS show similar ground deformation value although local deformation seems to be detected in the PSInSAR method only.

This paper deals with a new 3-phase power quality disturbance generator. The proposed generator can provide phase jump as well as voltage sag, swell, outage, unbalance, and over and under voltage. The operating principle of the generator is described in each mode of disturbance. The magnitude of the phase jump is analysed and it is found that the magnitude is the function of the turn-ratios of the transformers consisting the generator. The scheme has simple structure compared with the conventional one, and the major components of the proposed scheme are SCR thyristor and transformer, which guarantees high reliability and cost-effective implementation of the generator. Furthermore, high efficiency can be obtained because there is no PWM switching of the semiconductor devices, and it is easy to control the system. Simulations are carried out to confirm the operation in each disturbance mode, and experiments has been done with 5kVA power rating. The usefulness of the proposed scheme is verified through simulation and experimental results. It is expected that the scheme can be applied to the performance test of the custom power devices such as UPS, DVR, DSTATCOM, and SSTS with cost-effective system.

This paper presents the performance of a Phase Shift Full Bridge (PSFB) converter with inductive load and a new current control scheme to improve dynamic response of output current with various inductive loads. Enhanced dynamic model is used which includes leakage inductance and inductive load. Effect of changing of inductive load was analyzed in detail. Proposed current control scheme is designed based on phase margin specifications. As a result, the proposed current control scheme helps to improve the dynamic response in comparison with the existing current control scheme. The performance of the designed controller is verified by a 500 A PSFB converter. The results will be utilized for high current applications with high inductive load such as superconducting devices.

In this paper, we have derived a continuum-based adjoint design sensitivity of general performance functionals with respect to Young' modulus and heat conduction coefficient for steady-state nonlinear thermoelastic problems. An adjoint equation for temperature and displacement fields is defined for the efficient computation of the coupled field design sensitivity. Through numerical examples, we investigated the mesh dependency of the topology optimization method in the thermoelastic problems. Also, comparing the dominant loading cases of thermal and mechanical ones, the loading dependency of topology design optimization in coupled multi-physics problems is investigated.

In this paper, a method is proposed for the recognition of hand-written Hangeul. This is peiformed by extraction of the concave structural segments by phase rotation. Character patterns can be decomposed into the fundamental concave structural segments which are also categorized into segment sects, and the closure and phase features of each segment in set is represented by logics. By rotating the logic pattern, the topological and phase features of segment are extracted for the reliable recognition of the character. It is also evaluated that this method applies to a wide variety of shape, position and declination of the character.
