This paper describes a microwave direction finding technology which is used for RF signal acquisition and monitoring systems. This paper suggests a direction finding method which use a combination of the amplitude-comparison technology and the phase-comparison technology. The amplitude-comparison technology uses the amplitude difference of the RF signals received from the array antennas of direction finding system and removes the ambiguity of wave incident bearing. The phase-comparison technology uses the phase difference of the RF signals received from the same nay antennas and makes a good direction finding accuracy. The suggested direction finding technology is designed to place 8 array antennas in a $45^{\circ}$ distance around the circle for $360^{\circ}$ azimuth angle. Also it is designed to use the phase difference of the received signals ken two nearby antennas to measure the signal incident direction accurately and to use the amplitude difference to remove the ambiguity of wave incident bearing. The simulation and measurement results are under $0.5^{\circ}$ bearing error in $2.0\~6.0$ GHz when SNR is 30 dB.

The purpose of this study was to examine the putter head movement during the putting strokes. Highly skilled 5 golfers(less than 3 handicaps) and 5 novice golfers(having no golf experience) participated in this study. A target distance was 3 m. Movements of the putter head were recorded at 60 Hz with two video cameras(1/500 shutter speed). The results showed that the angle of the clubface of expert golfers was almost 1 degree, but the novice golfers were more than 6 degrees. Expert golfers moved their hands faster than the head movement, therefore the clubface was not opened during impact. However, the novice golfers moved their hands slower than the head movement, therefore the clubface was opened during impact. The ratio of input and output angles of total movement was 1:3-4, however, the ratio of input and output angles of impact zone was 1:2. The angle of normal vector of expert golfers was less than the angle of normal vector of novice golfers.

본 논문에서는 표적 추적 시스템에서 센서 어레이에 입사되는 표적신호에 대한 센서 출력 신호간의 지연시간 추정(TDE:Time Delay Estimation)을 위해 백색상호 상관법(CSP:Cross-Power Spectrum Phase Analysis)을 이용한다. 그러나 음파의 다중경로 전달특성 및 배경잡음의 영향으로 인해 CSP계수는 많은 클러터(Clutter)를 포함하게 되고 결국 방위 추정 오차의 요인이 된다. 따라서 센서 어레이 중심좌표를 기준으로 대칭 배열된 센서쌍(Pair)에 대한 CSP계수를 동기가산 하여 실제 표적 방향 이외의 방향정보를 제거하는 방법을 제안한다. 시간에 따라 각도를 변침하는 표적에 대한 표적기동분석 (BOTMA:Bearings Only Target Motion Analysis)을 위해 매 관측시간마다 동기가산을 행한 CSP결과를 누적하여 방위각 궤적을 형성하였을 때 시간 Window에 따라 약간의 차이는 있지만 약 10dB의 궤적 추적 성능을 확인하였다.

The failure at the head section of rubble-mound detached breakwaters is more important than other failure modes. because this initial failures will occur the failure of the trunk section and lead to the instability of the structure. The three-dimensional failure modes are discussed using the experimental data with multi-directional waves considering the failure modes occurring around the head of the rubble-mound detached breakwater. The spacial characteristics of failure mode around the rubble-mound structures can be summarized as follows: 1) It was clarified that the failure modes at the round head of a detached breakwater are classified as failure by plunging breaker on the slope, failure by direct incident wave force and failure by scouring at the toe of the detached breakwater. 2) The failure mode was found in the lower wave height than the design wave by the breaker depth effects. It is clarified that the structure monitored was safely designed for the design wave but the failure was occurred by the reason of breaker waves and scouring processes at the toe 3) It was observed that scouring at the toe developed in the region where steady stream due to vorticity was generated and the spatial variation of scour at the toe of the round head was predominated by incident wave direction.

The aim of this thesis research is to develop equipment measuring refractive state in order to measure the general ocular function using PC-based Foucault Test(Knife Edge Test). The Image of light generated from the reflection of incident light in retina thru Knife Edge Test was photographed using a CCD camera. The resulting image was then analyzed to measure the size of pupil by measuring the diameter of reflected image. The reflection state was judged from the orientation of reflected image and the degree of abnormal reflection was confirmed by measuring the size of second image of reflection. The aberration value was calculated from the magnitude of spherical aberration obtained by comparing the brightness of second reflected image appeared in the opposite direction to the reflected image.

The problem for parameters estimation of the received signals impinging on array sensors has long been of great research interest in a great variety of applications, such as radar, sonar, and land mobile communications systems. Conventional subspace-based algorithms, such as MUSIC and ESPRIT, require an extensive computation of inverse matrix and eigen-decomposition. In this paper, we propose a new parameters estimation algorithm via nonlinear minimization, which is simplified computationally and estimates signal parameters simultaneously.

A numerical simulation has been performed on the generation of the coastal cliff which lies as the distinct boundary between the beach and the hinterland. As a result of storm surge, it is known that the steeper the initial beach slope, the larger the generation of the coastal cliff. The rise of water level added the mean water level accelerates the generation of the coastal cliff. In addition, the longshore distribution of the incident wave height is one factor that bring about the generation of the non-uniform coastal cliff in longshore direction. Therefore this study will be able to use for expecting the formation and erosion of coastal cliff in sand beach.

Acousto-optical wavelength tunable optical filters in LiNbO$_3$ have been demonstrated using taperd directional weighted coupling acoustic waveguides and Ti double diffusion technique. Conversion efficiency in excess of 61%, 86% and sidelobe intensity of -14.29㏈, -14.99㏈ were measured at a wavelength of 1551.1nm RF frequency of 173.58MHz and RF power of 35㎽ for both TE and TM input polarizations, respectivelv. A spectral width of ~l.8nm and linear tuning late of 8.6nm/MHz were demonstrated. A 2.82$mutextrm{s}$ switching time has been measured. With two channels with 2.5nmseparation, channel cross-talk was lower than -l4㏈ for single wavelength filtering due to sidelobe.

A rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on effective dielectric method (EDM) is introduced and developed to analyze the polarization beam-splitting of optical rib-type directional coupler with three guiding layers. Furthermore, to confirm the validity of approach proposed in this paper, we compare our results with those ones of BeamPROP, which is a commercial software package used widely. Consequently, the numerical results reveal that the hybrid modes incident into a guiding channel of rib-type coupler are split well through upper and lower guiding channels in a polarization length.
