산업 폐기물로서 전량 매립되고 있는 styrene monomer (SM) 공정에서 발생되는 산화철 폐촉매를 사용하여 NiZn-페라이트를 합성하였고, 그 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. 평균입경 0.5㎛로 미분쇄된 산화철 폐촉매에 NiO 및 ZnO를 혼합하여 900℃에서 하소한후 1230℃에서 5시간 동안 소결하여 스핀넬형 페라이트 소결체를 얻었다. Ni/sub x/Zn/ub 1-x/Fe₂O₄(x=0.36, 0.50, 0.66) 및 (Ni/sub 0.5/Zn/sub 0.5/)/sub 1-y/Fe/sub 2+y/O₄(y=-0.02, 0, 0.02) 조성에 대하여 초투자율을 측정하였다. S-parameter를 측정하여 반사 감쇄량을 계산하였다. Ni/sub 0.5/Zn/sub 0.5/fe₂O₄ 조성의 경우 밀도 5.38 g/㎤ kHz에서의 초투자율이 59인 특성을 얻었다. 산화철 폐촉매를 이용하여 X-band 주파수 영역에서 높은 전자파 흡수능을 갖는 전파흡수체를 제조할 수 있음을 확인하였다. Ni/sub 0.5/Zn/sub 0.5/Fe₂O₄ 조성에 대하여 1100℃에서 하소한 분말을 사용하여 실리콘 고무에 복합시킨 후 전파흡수능을 측정하였다. 폐촉매에는 산화철 이외에 CeO₂가 주된 첨가물로 함유되어 있어서 페라이트의 합성 후에도 2차상으로서 존재하였다. 출발 원료인 산화철 폐촉매에 존재하는 K₂O 및 CeO₂를 제거하기 위하여 산처리와 분산제를 이용한 CeO₂ 분리과정을 행하였다. 정제된 산화철 폐촉매에 NiO 및 ZnO를 혼합하여 900℃에서 하소하여 스핀넬형 페라이트를 합성하고 1325℃에서 5시간 소결하였다. 위와 마찬가지로 Ni/sub x/Zn/sub 1-x/Fe₂O₄(x=0.36, 0.50, 0.66)과 (Ni/sub 0.5/Zn/sub 0.5/)/sub 1-y/Fe/sub 2+y/O₄(y=-0.02, 0, 0.02) 조성에 대하여 자기적 특성을 조사하였다.화된 중성자빔으로 측정하였다 BPC-Si를 구부려 슬랩의 곡률반경을 변화시키면서 단색기-시료-검출기가 평행파 반평행배치일 때 Cu(111), (200), (220), (311), (331), (420)면의 회절선을 측정하여 각 조건에서 분해능과 강도를 평가하였다.료의 가시적 변화를 통해 illumination angle 1.25mrad(Dose rate : 334 × 10³ e/sup -//sec·n㎡)일 경우 약 3초 이내에 비정질화가 시작됨을 알 수 있었고 이는 약 1 × 10/sup 6/ e/sup -//sec·n㎡ 의 전자선량에 해당되며 이를 기준으로 각각의 illumination angle에 대한 임계전자선량을 평가할 수 있었다. 실질적으로 Cibbsite와 같은 무기수화물의 직접가열실험 시 전자빔 조사에 의해 야기되는 상전이 영향을 배제하고 실험을 수행하려면 illumination angle 0.2mrad (Dose rate : 8000 e/sup -//sec·n㎡)이하로 관찰하고 기록되어야 함을 본 자료로부터 알 수 있었다.운동횟수에 의한 영향으로써 운동시간을 1일 6시간으로 설정하여, 운동횟수를 결정하기 위하여 오전, 오후에 각 3시간씩 운동시키는 방법과 오전부터 6시간동안 운동시키는 두 방법을 이용하여 품질을 비교하였다. 각 조건에 따라 운동시킨 참돔의 수분함량을 나타낸 것으로, 2회(오전 3시간, 오후 3시간)에 나누어서 운동시키기 위한 육의 수분함량은 73.37±2.02%를 나타냈으며, 1회(6시간 운동)운동시키기 위한 육은 71.74±1.66%을 나타내었다. 각각의 운동조건에서 양식된 참돔은 사육초기에는 큰 변화가 없었으나, 사육 5일 이후에는 수분함량이 증가하여 15일에는 76.40±0.14, 75.62±0.98%의 수분함량을 2회와 1회 운동시킨 참돔의 육에서 각각 나타났다. 운동횟수에 따른 지질함량은 2회 운동시킨 참돔은 5.83±2.08, 1회 운

본 연구에서는 직류 전원(direct current; DC)을 이용한 스퍼터링과 고전력펄스 마그네트론 스퍼터링(high-power impulse magentron sputtering; HIPIMS)의 두 가지 방법과 빗각 증착을 적용하여 제조한 티타늄 질화물(TiN) 박막의 미세구조 변화가 물성에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. TiN 박막은 99.5%의 Ti 타겟을 사용하고, Ar가스와 $N_2$ 분위기에서 스테인리스(SUS304)와 초경(cdmented carbide; WC-10wt.%Co) 기판위에 코팅하였다. 기판은 알코올과 아세톤으로 초음파 세척을 실시한 후 진공용기에 장착하고 기본 진공도인 ${\sim}2.0{\times}10^{-5}Torr$ 까지 진공배기를 실시하였다. 기판과 타겟 간의 거리는 DC 스퍼터링은 10 cm, HIPIMS 스퍼터링은 8.5 cm 이었다. 진공용기의 압력이 기본 진공도까지 배기되면 Ar 가스를 ${\sim}10^{-2}Torr$로 주입한 후 기판에 라디오 주파수(radio frequency; RF) 전원으로 약 -800 V의 전압을 인가하여 글로우 방전을 발생시키고 약 30 분간 청정을 실시하였다. 기판의 청정이 끝난 후 기본 진공도까지 배기한 후 Ar와 $N_2$ 가스를 ${\sim}10^{-3}Torr$로 주입하여 TiN 코팅을 실시하였다. 빗각의 크기는 $45^{\circ}$와 $-45^{\circ}$이며, TiN 박막의 총 두께는 약 $2.5{\sim}4.0{\mu}m$ 로 유지하였다. 공정조건에 따라 TiN 박막의 주상정은 형태와 기울어진 각도가 다른 것을 확인하였다. DC 스퍼터링으로 제조된 TiN 박막은 기판홀더에 약 -100 V 의 bias 전압을 인가하면 인가하지 않은 박막에 비해 치밀한 박막의 성장과 경도 값도 증가하는 사실을 확인하였다. 또한 빗각을 적용하고 bias 전압을 인가하지 않은 시편에서 박리현상이 일어났다. HIPIMS로 제조한 TiN 박막은 bias 전압을 인가한 박막과 인가하지 않은 박막의 주상정 형상과 경도 값에 큰 차이가 없었으며, 박막의 박리현상은 모든 시편에서 일어나지 않았다. DC 스퍼터링으로 제조한 TiN 박막은 bias 전압을 인가하지 않으면 색상이 노란색이 아닌 갈색으로 나타났으며, HIPIMS으로 제조한 박막은 bias 전압 인가 유무에 상관없이 노란색 색상을 나타냈다. 앞서 설명한 DC 스퍼터링과 HIPIMS의 공정조건에 따라 나타난 박막의 경도, 색상, 물성변화 차이는 DC 스퍼터링보다 높은 HIPIMS의 이온화율에서 기인한 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구결과를 이용하면 다양한 형태의 박막 구조 제어가 가능하고 이러한 미세구조 제어를 통해서 박막의 물성도 제어가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The combination of the broadband property and the wide area coverage of satellite communications enables high speed transmission. Every user in the region under the satellite beam coverage can tranceiver and one can simultaneously communicate with multiple users. For these reasons, it is one of commendable telecommunication networks for information transfer. Since the satellite communications use open channels, it is likely to cause jamming with unwanted interference signals. In the thesis, APSK (Amplitude Phase Shift Keying) is employed, which is recommended for DVB-S2 due to high-speed transmission and excellent bandwidth efficiency. For obtaining reliable communication under the jamming environments, the communication satellite transponder rests on the polyphase filter bank structure, which enables switching among the subchannels and gain control on each subchannel, resulting in effectively eliminating jamming. Furthermore, the nulling scheme, one of the various anti-jamming approaches, is investigated, in which unwanted jamming signals are eliminated in the frequency domain after passing through the analysis part of the polyphase filter bank. The performance of the nulling scheme is evaluated for tone jamming and partial band jamming in terms of BER and EVM. The simulation results indicate that the nulling scheme improve the BER and EVM performance over the case without any anti-jamming approach.

In this paper, a compact circularly polarized metamaterial patch antenna using the -1 mode that is induced by the composit right-left handed(CRLH) transmission line is proposed. Basically, since the -1 mode is the same properties with the +1 mode of the conventional patch antenna, the circular polarization(CP) is realized. If two orthogonal -1 modes are excited with $90^{\circ}$ phase difference, the CP property can be obtained. In order to obtain two orthogonal modes and $90^{\circ}$ phase difference, 4 mushroom structures having the shape of triangle are employed and the inter-digital gaps are optimized, respectively. The fabricated antenna is based on RT/duroid5880 substrate and the total area of the 4 mushrooms is $0.161{\lambda}_0{\times}0.161{\lambda}_0$. It is confirmed that the center frequency of the proposed antenna is measured as 2.845 GHz and it operates from 2.830 GHz to 2.850 GHz. In addition, the antenna maintains the CP property from 2.842 GHz to 2.847 GHz at the peak gain and the measured radiation efficiency is 46 %.

In this paper, we investigated the shadow area of radio programs which are currently being broadcast via FM 102.5 MHz in Jeollabuk-do consisting of 6 cities and 8-guns. The field strength data of FM 102.5 MHz was used with criterion of shadow area. As a result, the field strength of the eastern mountainous area in Jeollabuk-do was very low. We also measured, compared and analyzed the field strength of 102.5 MHz(TBN-Jeonju), 100.7 MHz(KBS) and 99.1 MHz (MBC) in Jeollabuk-do. Based on the field strength data, we tried to find what correlation exists and how much influence is between difference of antenna output power and solution of shadow area. In result, enhancement of antenna output power is not solution in terms of reducing the shadow Area of 102.5 MHz(TBN-Jeonju). In addition, we measured, compared and analyzed the field strength of 102.5 MHz(TBN-Jeonju) and 106.9 MHz(EBS). In fact, the relay stations with 104.1 MHz, 104.9 MHz, 105.3 MHz and 107.5 MHz of EBS FM has a number of FM relay stations in the eastern mountainous area of Jeollabuk-do. As a result, we confirmed that EBS almost did not have shadow area in the eastern mountainous area of Jeollabuk-do based on the field strength data. As in the case of EBS and KBS, we suggest installing TBN-Jeonju FM relay station with the best solution to reducing the shadow area to extend the audible range of TBN-Jeonju.

This paper proposes a high-performance in-loop filter in HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding) encoder for Ultra HD video processing in real time. HEVC uses in-loop filter consisting of deblocking filter and SAO(Sample Adaptive Offset) to solve the problems of quantization error which causes image degradation. In the proposed in-loop filter encoder hardware architecture, the deblocking filter and SAO has a 2-level hybrid pipeline structure based on the $32{\times}32CTU$ to reduce the execution time. The deblocking filter is performed by 6-stage pipeline structure, and it supports minimization of memory access and simplification of reference memory structure using proposed efficient filtering order. Also The SAO is implemented by 2-statge pipeline for pixel classification and applying SAO parameters and it uses two three-layered parallel buffers to simplify pixel processing and reduce operation cycle. The proposed in-loop filter encoder architecture is designed by Verilog HDL, and implemented by 205K logic gates in TSMC 0.13um process. At 110MHz, the proposed in-loop filter encoder can support 4K Ultra HD video encoding at 30fps in realtime.

According to the last 5 year statistics of KGS, there occurred 22 under ground gas pipe accidents per year in Korea. And about 5 accidents per year were caused from the third party digging. IT recognition technique could reduce such underground gas accidents. Among IT recognition technique, RFID is most poplar. In the air, RFID were applied to various fields including the distribution industry, but underground condition, the research and application cases of RFID were little This research was undertaken to see the applicability of RFID to underground gas pipe safety. By use of 900 MHz RFID reader and commercial metal tag, the stable recognition distance was measured in the similar underground condition of LNG pipe. Stable recognition depth of RFID tag were measured to be 50, 45, 25 cm in the medium of soil, 5 cm-thick-concrete+soil, and water respectively. The measured distances were considered to be the meaningful distance to prevent the gas pipe accidents Also the efficient ways to input the required gas pipe data to the 24 byte metal tag were proposed. Application of RFID to underground LNG supply system will not only reduce the gas accidents due to third party digging but also improve the gas line maintenance efficiency.

Among the various geophysical approaches to identify the leakage of leachate with conductivity variation, conventional electrical resistivity survey has been mainly used at waste landfill. We adopted small-loop electromagnetic (EM) survey using multi-frequencies in parallel with electrical resistivity survey to delineate the leakage of leachate through the shallow soil layer at a waste landfill in Jeju Island, and also with self-potential monitoring to detect the streaming potential produced by the movement of leachate. There were no evidences of leakage from waste landfill according to the results of the electrical resistivity survey and SP monitoring, and it was also true from the results of water quality analysis at stream around waste landfill periodically. On the other hand, the results of one-dimensional inversion of spatially-filtered small-loop EM survey data showed the anomalous zone of low resistivity with depth both around and inner waste landfill.

Two implementation methods for SOVA (Soft Output Viterbi Algorithm)of Turbo decoder are applied and verfied. The first method is the combination of a trace back (TB) logic for the survivor state and a double trace back logic for the weight value in two-step SOVA. This architecure of two-setp SOVA decoder allows important savings in area and high-speed processing compared with that of one-step SOVA decoding using register exchange (RE) or trace-back (TB) method. Second method is adjusting the reliability value with a scaling factor between 0.25 and 0.33 in order to compensate for the distortion for a rate 1/3 and 8-state SOVA decoder with a 256-bit frame size. The proposed schemes contributed to higher SNR performance by 2dB at the BER 10E-4 than that of SOVA decoder without a scaling factor. In order to verify the suggested schemes, the SOVA decoder is testd using Xillinx XCV 1000E FPGA, which runs at 33.6MHz of the maximum speed with 845 latencies and it features 175K gates in the case of 256-bit frame size.

To increase wireless capacity, the concurrent use of multiple wireless interfaces on different frequency bands, called aggregation, can be considered. In this paper, we focus on aggregation of multiple Wi-Fi interfaces with packet-level traffic spreading between the interfaces. Two aggregation schemes, link bonding and multipath TCP (MPTCP), are tested and compared in a dualband Wi-Fi radio system with their Linux implementation. Various test conditions such as traffic types, network delay, locations, interface failures and configuration parameters are considered. Experimental results show that aggregation increases throughput performance significantly over the use of a single interface. Link bonding achieves lower throughput than MPTCP due to duplicate TCP acknowledgements (ACKs) resulting from packet reordering and filtering such duplicate ACKs out is considered as a possible solution. However, link bonding is fast responsive to links' status changes such as a link failure. It is shown that different combinations of interface weights for packet spread in link bonding result in different throughput performance, envisioning a spatio-temporal adaptation of the weights. We also develop a mathematical model of power consumption and compare the power efficiency of the schemes applying different power consumption profiles.
