In this paper, we have described and simulated the effect analysis and correction of phase errors in the SAR rawdata induced by satellite attitude errors such as drift, jitter. This simulation is based on the FSA(Frequency Scaling Algorithm) for high resolution image formation of the Spotlight SAR. Phase errors produce the degradation of SAR image quality such as loss of resolution, geometric distortion, loss of contrast, spurious targets, and decrease in SNR. To resolve this problem, this paper presents method for correction of phase errors using the PGA(Phase Gradient Algorithm) in connection with the FSA. Several results of the phase errors correction are presented for Spotlight SAR rawdata.

관성항법 시스템은 항체의 위치, 속도 및 자세정보를 거의 연속적으로 제공할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 그러나 시간의 경과함에 따라 초기오차가 누적되어 발산하게 되는 단점이 있다. 이로 인하여 실제 적용시에는 매우 고가의 정밀한 자이로와 가속도계가 필요하다. 반면 DGPS는 오차의 누적이나 증가없이 장기간 동안 안정적으로 위치정보를 제공하지만 낮은 데이터 전송률과 도심지역과 칼은 곳에서는 신호의 차단이나 전파방해에 영향을 받는 단점이 있다. 이와 같이 상호보완적인 DGPS와 INS 정보를 통합하여 고 정밀의 속도, 위치 및 자세데이터를 제공할 수 있다. 본 논문은 저가의 IMU의 노이즈와 바이어스를 웨이브렛의 soft thresholding 기법을 이용하여 잡음을 제거하여 성능향상을 시도하였다. 통합알고리즘의 필터는 IS차로 구현하였으며 관측치는 DGPS의 위치정보를 이용하였다.

Thermal vibration characteristics of a thin walled composite beam attached on spacecraft are investigated in this paper. The composite beam is assumed to have a thin CUS(circumferentially uniform stiffness) wall and modeled with several composite materials which are already space qualified such as T300/Epoxy, YS90AEpoxy. Steady state angle and peak to peak error in spacecraft attitude angle and tip displacement of composite beams are evaluated as a performance index for thermal vibration characteristics. Evaluation results shows that composite beam made out of YS90A has nearly 2 times better than T300 in terms of peak to peak attitude error angle.

In this paper, we propose an improved method of plane tracking in developing AR games for smartphones using magnetic field sensor. The previous method based on ARCore is a VIO method using a mixture of SLAM and IMU of smartphones. The disadvantages of accelerometers and gyroscopes in IMUs cause errors in tracking the plane. We propose an improved method of planar tracking by adding the magnetic field sensor as well as the existing IMU sensors. Experimental results shows that our method reduces the error of the smartphone posture estimation.

The rotational inertial navigation system can provide more accurate navigation information by mounting an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) on the gimbal and rotating the gimbal regularly to cancel out the errors of the IMU. However, when an attitude change occurs due to waves, the attitude error is not removed to 0 at the end of one cycle of the rotation procedure and causes a large position error. In this paper, considering this problem, we propose a method of stabilizing the external gimbal by rotating it based on the roll information of the vehicle. Based on simulation, the impact of waves is analyzed and the performance of external gimbal stabilization is verified.

무인 헬리콥터의 자세 정보를 계측할 수 있는 액체형 균형센서의 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 액체형 균형센서는 시간경과에 따른 누적오차가 없으므로 헬리콥터에 장착하면 장시간동안 균형을 유지시킬 수 있다. 제작된 균형센서의 각 전극에서 측정된 전압으로부터 기울어진 각도를 추정하기 위해 균형센서를 전기적으로 해석하고 측정된 전압과 각도사이의 환산모델을 유도하였다. 구해진 환산모델의 정확성을 실험을 통하여 입증하였다.

제스처 인식은 로봇의 활용에 유용한 기능이지만 많은 계산 량이 요구되므로 보급형 u-로봇에는 탑재되기 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서 u-로봇에서 일차적인 영상처리를 수행하고, 핵심 데이터만 u-로봇서버에 전송하여 다양한 응용을 수행하는 분산시스템을 구성할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 스테레오 영상칩을 탑재한 ASIC과 임베디드 시스템을 활용하여 사용자의 상체 자세를 검출할 수 있는 알고리즘을 개발하고 성능을 검증하였다. 개발된 시스템은 사용자의 다양한 상체자세를 최대 30fps까지 실시간으로 검출할 수 있으며 80%전후의 검출률과 10cm전후의 손과 팔꿈치의 위치오차를 보였다.

At present, megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) is the only method used to correct the position of tomotherapy patients. MVCT produces extra radiation, in addition to the radiation used for treatment, and repositioning also takes up much of the total treatment time. To address these issues, we suggest the use of a video image-guided setup (VIGS) system for correcting the position of tomotherapy patients. We developed an in-house program to correct the exact position of patients using two orthogonal images obtained from two video cameras installed at $90^{\circ}$ and fastened inside the tomotherapy gantry. The system is programmed to make automatic registration possible with the use of edge detection of the user-defined region of interest (ROI). A head-and-neck patient is then simulated using a humanoid phantom. After taking the computed tomography (CT) image, tomotherapy planning is performed. To mimic a clinical treatment course, we used an immobilization device to position the phantom on the tomotherapy couch and, using MVCT, corrected its position to match the one captured when the treatment was planned. Video images of the corrected position were used as reference images for the VIGS system. First, the position was repeatedly corrected 10 times using MVCT, and based on the saved reference video image, the patient position was then corrected 10 times using the VIGS method. Thereafter, the results of the two correction methods were compared. The results demonstrated that patient positioning using a video-imaging method ($41.7{\pm}11.2$ seconds) significantly reduces the overall time of the MVCT method ($420{\pm}6$ seconds) (p<0.05). However, there was no meaningful difference in accuracy between the two methods (x=0.11 mm, y=0.27 mm, z=0.58 mm, p>0.05). Because VIGS provides a more accurate result and reduces the required time, compared with the MVCT method, it is expected to manage the overall tomotherapy treatment process more efficiently.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of different sitting postures on range of motion, strength and proprioceptive sense of neck. Fifteen healthy university students participated in the study. Depending on upright sitting position and slump sitting position, range of motion and joint position sense were measured by using Dualer IQ. Also, the maximum isometric strength and force sense were measured by using linear force. As a result, we found that the maximum angle of neck extension and the maximum isometric strength at flexion were significantly higher in upright posture than in slump posture. Also, the maximum angle of neck flexion and the maximum isometric strength at extension were higher in slump posture than in upright posture. According to the result, proper proprioception can have an beneficial effect on postural revision of neck and body by providing the information that cognize the position of head through and sustain upright posture.

Since SBRT takes up to 1 hour from 30 minutes to treatment fraction once or three to five times, there is a possibility of setup error during treatment. To reduce these set-up errors and give accurate doses, we intend to evaluate the usefulness of pre-treatment and post-treatment error values by imaging CBCT again to determine postural movement due to pre-treatment coordinate values using pre-treatment CBCT. On average, the range of systematic errors was 0.032 to 0.17 on the X and Y,Z axes, confirming that there was very little change in movement even after treatment. Tumor centripetal changes (±SD) due to respiratory tuning were 0.11 (±0.12) cm, 0.27 (±0.15) cm, and 0.21 cm (±0.31 cm) in the X, Y and Z directions. The tumor edges ±SD were 0.21 (±0.18) cm, 0.30 (±0.23) cm, and 0.19 cm (±0.26) cm in the X, Y and Z directions. The (±SD) of tumor-corrected displacements were 0.03 (±0.16) cm, 0.05 (±0.26) cm, and 0.02 (±0.23) cm in RL, AP, and SI directions, respectively. The range of the 3D vector value was 0.11 to 0-.18 cm on average when comparing pre-treatment and CBCT, and it was confirmed that the corrected set-up error was within 0.3 cm. Therefore, it was confirmed that there were some changes in values depending on some older patients, condition on the day of treatment, and body type, but they were within the significance range.
