Parameters including the seismic sources and the elastic wave propagation characteristics were analysed using the observed ground motions from 3 Kyoungju region earthquakes. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was applied to invert all the variables non-linearly and simultaneously with S wave energy In frequency domain. Average stress drop of 3 events and local attenuation parameter ${\kappa}$ were estimated to about 48-bar and 0.0312 respectively. Regional attenuation parameter, Qo and ${\eta}$, were also estimated to be about 417 and 0.83. ${\kappa}$ values are much higher than that of EUS, even though smaller than that of WUS. All these values resultant from this study show that there are differences in some parameters of other studios due to differences in the governing equation. of acceleration motions

Mode superposition method(MSM) is the most commonly used for solving linear response problems of structural dynamics. The major advantage of MSM is that usually a small number of lower mode is sufficient to analysis the response. However, the convergence is slow and many modes would be needed to give an accurate MSM in large structure with many degrees of freedom. The inaccuracies of MSM are caused by mode truncation in the solution. These demerits can be overcome by use of the mode acceleration method(MAM). Example analyses are carried out in simple beam subjected to harmonic loadings and compared the convergence of the joint displacements by the two methods. For relatively low frequency loadings, a good results was obtained by the lowest one mode in MAM, so the method is more economic in numerical analysis on an accurate solution.

In this paper, we have designed and fabricated a new type power divider to be efficient to a size and electrical performance by folding each quarter-wavelength 70.7 Ω section into a tightly-coupled "meander-line" and inserting a slit. In this type, because of coupling, the electrical phase of quarter -wavelength line and the performance change. For this reason, with the inductive slit and the tuning of quarter-wavelength line length, we have compensated for those. The inductance value of the inserted slit is decided by its width and depth, therefore, we could improve the electrical performance through optimization of inductance. Input and output return losses of the designed power divider were -34.2 dB, -34.3 dB respectively, and isolation was -36.7 dB at 1.75 GHz. Besides, a new design approach reduced occupied substrate area by 3:1 approximately.

We designed asynchronous event logic library with 0.25um CMOS technology and interface chip for heterogeneous system with high-speed asynchronous FIFO operating at 1.6GHz. Optimized asynchronous standard cell layouts and Verilog models are designed for top-down design methodology. A Method for mitigating a design bottleneck when it comes to tolerate clock skew is described. This communication scheme using clock control circuits, which is used for the free of synchronization failures, is analyzed and implemented. With clock control circuit and FIFO, high-speed communication between synchronous modules operating at different clock frequencies or with asynchronous modules is performed. The core size of implemented high-speed 32bit-interface chip for heterogeneous system is about $1.1mm{\times}1.1mm$.

This paper proposes a new optic link structure applicable to broad-band wireless access microcellularsystem servicing in the millimeter wave frequency band. The proposed structure utilizes photonic mixing by exploiting the nonlinear property of EOMs, which leads to the frequency up-conversion at the CS and thus, electrical mixing at a BS is not required. Moreover, via transmitting an additional optical millimeter wave carrier into the Bs, the dispenses with an active optic source, which miniaturizes the BS. We analyze CNR, IM3/C in the downlink and SFDR in the uplink. Through simulation using the typical parameter values we also show the feasibility of the proposed system based on the requirements in the current microcellular system.

GPS signal is vulnerable to intentional and unintentional interferences since it has a very weak signal power and its structure is well-known. Among the interference rejecting techniques, the ATF is being generally used as a pre-correlation technique. However, it does not have a design parameter relating to the notch width, resulting in the spectral loss around frequency of the interference. The IIR notch filter has a design parameter relating to the notch width and can generate a sharp notch for the CW interference. In this paper, an adaptive IIR notch filter is proposed and the performance is evaluated using software signal generator and real measurements.

When there are numerous wireless communication systems co-existing in the limited available frequency resource, an unexpected time delay can be caused during the system switching. So, in order to reduce this time delay, a mode selection method is required. In this paper, we propose a mode selection method to minimize the time delay for multi-system wireless communication systems. For the sake of efficiency, the mode selection method is designed by analyzing the preamble characteristics of different standards. Instead of performing a full search, we propose the preamble partial search to reduce the time delay to a minimum. Simulated with Matlab in an additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) environment with a signal to noise ratio(SNR) of 10dB and bit error rate(BER) of $10^{-6}$, we evaluated and showed the performance improvement gained by using our proposed mode selection method.

In this paper, we have designed a microwave level meter based on the FM-CW radar theory using a YIG-tuned oscillator (YTO). YTO has an excellent frequency linearity, so a linearizer circuit is not necessary for the level meter. It is shown that interference signals reflected from nearby obstacles can be removed by using a digital band-pass filter. An FIR band-pass filter is designed using the Kaiser window. The distance measurement has been performed in the outdoor test field. The measurement data have been obtained for the range of 1~40m with 1m step, and the results show that the standard deviation of the measured data is 2.33 cm. The level meter manufactured in this study can be applied usefully in the industrial facilities which are not accessible easily, for example, to measure the level of molten metal in the iron and steel company.

Ground station in lunar mission is responsible to receive telemetry signal including sensor data from lunar orbiter and/or lander. At preliminary stage of developing this ground station, receiving performance such as antenna size and noise temperature should be designed on the basis of link budget analysis. When the antenna of ground station is pointing to the moon to communicate with lunar orbiter and/or lander, noise level is supposed to be increasing due to the lunar flux density. It means that the moon is working as a noise source to degrade receiving performance when antenna is pointing to the moon. Antenna noise temperature contributed by the moon was firstly calculated and secondary validated by using test configuration in this paper. Consequently, it was shown that antenna noise temperature caused by the moon was quietly matched with measured one and G/T degradation of receiving system in lunar mission can be calculated depending on antenna size and frequency.

The infrared camera is difficult to satisfy the RE-102 specification of Mil-Std-461. Especially, in the case of UAV electronics, shielded cable is not used, so it is difficult to meet the electromagnetic compatibility standard. In the RE-102 test of the IR camera for UAV, radiated noise exceeding 30 dBuV/m was observed in the range of 50 MHz to 200 MHz. As a result of pcb em scan, peak noise which caused by the harmonic frequency of the digital control signal clock was observed. Radiated noise was reduced by up to 22.9 dBuV/m by applying the spread spectrum clock generator(SSCG) with 3 % down spreading method to the camera control clock.
