초전형 센서의 특성 평가 방법에는 여러 가지 방법들이 존재하며, 이에 대한 표준화된 특성 평가방법의 개발이 필요로 한다. 측정 평가의 방법이나 조건 등에 따라서 평가 결과가 크게 변할 수 있는 사항들이며, 따라서 국내 뿐 아니라 대외적으로 다른 나라의 제품들과 신뢰성을 가지고 경쟁을 하기 위해서는 평가항목이나 평가방법의 표준화가 절실하게 요구된다. 초전형 적외선 센서를 평가하는 항목에는 기본적으로 입력에 대한 출력신호의 크기를 평가하는 감도(responsivity), 잡음과 관련되어 센서가 검출할 수 있는 최소의 신호를 나타내는 NEP(Noise Equivalent Power)와 이것을 센서의 감지 면적으로 정규화 시킨 검출능(detectivity), 응답 속도를 나타내는 시정수(time constant)가 있으며 이러한 항목들이 표준화의 대상이 된다. 본 실험에서는 기존의 상용화된 센서들을 가지고 초전형 적외선 센서의 특성을 측정 하였다. 특성을 측정할 때 다른 요인들 보다 노이즈로 인한 영향이 상당히 크므로 측정시 노이즈 발생 문제를 해결하는 방법으로 본 논문에서는 센서 측정에 사용되는 증폭 회로에서 노이즈를 해결하려고 하였다. 우리는 증폭 회로구성에서 노이즈를 제거하기 위해서 신호입력단과 전압 압력에 잡음제거 필터로 R, C를 사용하였다. 회로설계로 제작된 증폭회로와 측정 장치를 가지고 측정을 한 결과 센서의 감도는 $3.0mV_{p-p}$, 응답시간은 20ms정도의 값으로 가장 일반적인(typical) 값을 보인다.

Charge-coupled device(CCD) array detectors are widely used in real time modulation transfer function(MTF) measurement systems. This paper presents the characteristics of two-dimensional CCDs used in a real time MTF measurement system for copy lenses. The MTF characteristics of a copy lens measured by this equipment show different results according to the direction of shift register, shutter speed and the amplifier gain of CCDs. An object generator is fabricated to reduce the variation of MTF values for the irradiance nonuniformity in on-axis and off-axis image plane and this MTF equipment is calibrated by using a standard lens.

In this paper the overstrength factors, ductility factors, and response modification factors of ordinary concentric braced frames designed in accordance with a current seismic design code are determined by performing pushover analysis. According to the analysis results, the overstrength and the response modification factors turn out to be larger than the values regulated in the codes in most model structures. However if the braces are reinforced by BRB or zipper columns, the overstrength factors and response modification factors turn out to increase significantly.

In the two-way relay channel, the relay employ Amplify-and-Forward (AF) or Decode-and-Forward (DF) protocol, and broadcast the network-coded signal to both user. In the system, DF protocol provides maximum throughput at low signal to noise ratio(SNR). On the other hand, at high SNR, AF protocol provides maximum throughput. The paper propose active transmission scheme which employ Amplify-and-Forward or Decode-and-Forward protocol based on received SNR at the relay over Two-way relay channel. The optimal threshold is investigated numerically for switching the protocol. Through numerical results, we confirm that the proposed scheme outperforms conventional schemes over two-way relay channel.

Digital microwave wideband receiver including linear amplifier, analog-to-digital converter(ADC) and digital signal processor is able to analyze its performance using sensitivity and dynamic range of system. Determination of gain, third-order intermodulation products and ADC characteristics and design criteria for the linear amplifier chain is essential problem for sensitive and dynamic range. Also, if there are two signals with frequencies very close, digital signal processor must be able to separate the two signals. In this paper, we measured dynamic range as gain was changed and determined gain value for the proper sensitivity and dynamic range and high resolution spectrum estimation was used to separate two close signals.

This paper introduces a thermal compensation circuit with improved compensation characteristic for amplifiers to provide stable output power regardless environmental temperature. The proposed thermal compensation circuit is composed of two branchline couplers having two diodes between them. And, the thermistor whose resistance varies significantly with temperature inversely and a operational amplifiers, so called as OP-amp, control the diodes in the compensations circuit to realize more effective thermal compendation characteristic compared with conventional circuit.

P-N 접합에 의해 절연된 게이트를 통해 전류 통로를 제어하는 접합형 전계효과 트랜지스터(Junction Field Effect Transistors; JFETs)는, 입력 임피던스가 크고, 온도에 덜 민감하며, 제조가 간편하여 집적회로(IC) 제조가 용이하고, 동작의 해석이 단순하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 특히 JFET는 선형적인 전류의 증폭 특성을 가지고 있으며, 잡음이작기 때문에, 감도가 우수한 음향 센서의 증폭회로, 선형성이 우수한 증폭회로, 입력 계측 증폭 회로 등에 주로 사용되고 있다. 기존에 사용되는 JFET 소자는 구조와 제조 공정에 따라서, 컷 오프 전압($V_{cut-off}$)과 드레인-소스 포화 전류($I_{DSS}$)의 변화가 심하게 발생하여, 소자의 전기적 특성 제어가 어렵고, 소자의 수율이 낮다는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 게이트 전압에 의해 채널이 형성되는 채널 층의 상하부에 각각 $Si_xGe_{1-x}$로 이루어진 상부 및 하부 확산 저지층을 삽입한 JFET 소자 형성하여, 게이트 접합부의 접합 영역 확산을 저지하고, 상기 게이트 접합부가 계면에서 날카로운 농도 구배를 갖도록 함으로써, 공정 변화에 따른 전기적 특성의 편차가 작아지는 JFET 소자 구조를 만들어 전기적 특성을 개선하였다. JFET은 채널층에 삽입된 $Si_xGe_{1-x}$ 층의 두께, Ge 함유량 및 n채널층의 두께를 변화하였을 때, off 상태의 게이트-소스 전압이 감소한 반면에 드레인-소스 포화 전류($I_{DSS}$)와 컨덕턴스(gm) 값이 증가하였다. 삽입된 $Si_xGe_{1-x}$층이 Boron이 밖으로 확산되는 현상이 감소하여 채널이 좁아지는 현상을 막아 소자의 전기적 특성을 개선함으로써 제조공정의 변화에 관계없이 컷오프 전압을 정확하고 안정되게 제어할 수 있고 이를 통해 소자의 수율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, we has designed and implemented Up-converter for K-band with high IMD3 performance using balanced power amplifier. It is consisted of PA module and, Local Oscillator module with reject Filter, mixer module and If block, and Up-converter has a local loop path to decide whether it operate or not and has the sensing port to inspect output power level. According to the power budget of designed Up-converter, K-band balanced power amplifier was fabricated by commercial MMIC. Measurement results of up-converter show about 40dB Gain, PldB of 29dBm and OIP3 was 38.25dBm, that is good performance compared to power budgets. We has adjusted gate voltage of MMIC to control more than 30 dB gain. This up-converter was used in transceiver for PTP and PTMP, and applied to digital communication system that use QAM and QPSK modulation.

To reduce the vulnerability of torsional irregular buildings caused by seismic loads, the torsional amplification factor was introduced by the seismic code. This factor has been applied differently in a variety of seismic codes. In this study, the final static eccentricity, and the lateral and torsional stiffness ratios of buildings designed with different design eccentricities were compared. The increment of the torsional amplification factor resulted in a decrement of the final static eccentricity of the building. However, after reaching the maximum value of this factor, the final static eccentricity of the building increased again. The final static eccentricity of the building designed by multiplying the sum of the inherent and accidental eccentricity by the torsional amplification factor was zero or had a minus value, depending to the position of the vertical element.

In this study, the model test of a reservoir was performed through a dynamic analysis method by using the data obtained from seismometers. Besides, we analyzed the behavior of the seismic acceleration amplification by reservoir height. To test the model, the data measured by the seismometers were applied at the foundation of the reservoir as input data, and the results from the analysis were compared with the data measured at the dam crest. The analysis results manifest that the peak values and the trend of the seismic wave obtained from the numerical analysis are in good agreement with the measured data. Also, the acceleration amplification ratio was proportional to the reservoir height and the magnitude of the earthquake. Through this study, the dynamic analysis method, which is based on the cyclic elastoplastic constitutive equation, can be considered as an appropriate technique to analyse the seismic behavior by the application of the data obtained from the seismometers installed in the reservoir. Also, the applicability of the seismometers can be enhanced through this technique in the future.
