We consider a Step Life Testing which is deviced for a two-component serial system with the considerably long life time. In the modelling stage we discuss the bivariate exponential distribution suggested by Block and Basu as the bivariate survival function for the two-component system, and develope the cumulative exposure model introduced by Nelson so that it can be used under the bivariate function. We consider inference on the component life time when the components are at work in the system by combining the information from system life test and that from the component tests carried out separately under the controlled environment. In data analysis, maximum likelihood estimators are discussed with the initial value obtained by an weighted least square method. Finally we discuss the optimal time for changing the stress in the simple step stress life testing.

A fin channel with a fin width of 20 nm and a gradually increased source/drain extension regions are fabricated on a bulk silicon wafer by using a three-dimensional selective oxidation. The detailed process steps to fabricate the proposed fin channel are explained. We are demonstrating their preliminary characteristics and properties compared with those of the conventional fin field effect transistor device (FinFET) and the bulk FinFET device via three-dimensional device simulation. Compared to control devices, the three-dimensional selective oxidation fin channel MOSFET shows a higher linear transconductance, larger drive current, and lower series resistance with nearly the same scaling-down characteristics.

This paper addressed the spectrum of ultrasonic waves produced by arc and/or coronal discharge inside the switchboard. Portable ultrasound sensors are useful for detecting discharge phenomena, such as coronal means in electrical systems. However, a typical handheld ultrasound detector has a disadvantage of determining the type of problem by listening to the sound characteristics and predicting the results, as a result of the determination of whether a discharge is present. Therefore, a new method of analysis is required to distinguish ultrasonic characteristics. In this paper, we published an ultrasound analysis case study to visualize the sound of ultrasonic waves measured with ultrasonic sensors. From the results of the experiment, it was possible to detect coronal discharge and serial arc discharge without interference by the ultrasonic detection system.

Pervasive Multi-channel audio systems are being realized due to advances in digital technology. This paper proposes an efficient system that serially connects individual speakers with bidirectional digital communication capability by means of SoC design. In particular, each speaker can identify the bit stream assigned to the speaker and convert it into analog audio. Furthermore, the speaker can self-diagnose the speaker functionality by utilizing the designed capability to measure frequencies of various square wave test signals. The proposed system running on 200MHz clock yielded restoration of analog output signal with latency of only $500{\mu}s$ compared to directly driving the speakers in a traditional way.

석탄 가스화에서 유도된 합성가스는 합성반응 공정을 통하여 합성석유, 메탄올(& DME), 합성천연가스(SNG) 등의 다양한 화학원료를 제조할 수 있어 이의 활용이 점차적으로 확대될 것이다. 이 중 SNG 공정의 경우, 석탄가스화기에서 생산된 합성가스는 집진, 탈황, 수성가스전환($H_2$/CO 비를 조절), $CO_2$ 제거 등의 공정을 거쳐 메탄화 반응기로 유도되는데, 메탄화 반응에서 $CO_2$가 반응에 참여하면 탄소포집 및 저장(CCS)의 부담을 크게 줄일 수 있어 이에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 특히, 상업용으로 활용되고 있는 단열반응기를 직렬로 연결할 경우, 메탄화반응의 발열로 인한 반응기내의 온도 상승으로 $CO_2$가 생성되는데 이후의 2차 또는 3차의 단열반응기에서 $CO_2$ 수소화반응이 진행되면 최종 생성물인 메탄의 수율이 증가하며, 뿐만아니라 생성물 중 포함된 수소의 농도를 낮출 수 있는 장점을 가지게 된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Ni계 촉매를 사용하여 풍부한 $H_2$ 분위기에서 Fe를 첨가하여 이의 함량이 $CO_2$ 수소화반응의 탄소 전환율과 생성되는 메탄의 수율에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

In this paper, we present a design of PWM-controlled driving device for backlights in LED systems. The system can control either the brightness of the entire screen of backlights of LCD driven by LED or illumination or contrast of each partial segment of the entire screen. The PWM-controlled driving device includes the shift register that shifts the series data according to the clock signal prior to the generation of parallel data. It is also is comprised of a number of registers, a number of counters, a number of comparators, and a number of synchronizing gates (producing the PWM-controlled signals). The proposed device for backlights in LED systems can generate the PWM-controlled signal with a high degree of resolution without the increase of clock frequency. It also contains the PWM-controlled circuit that disperses and restrains the quantized noise.

The bar-shaped electrode is very popular in earth construction for its easy obtainments of the regulative grounding resistance values on power distribution systems in many countries. For these reason, a lots of researches are being proceeded on its deformation and materials. But the grounding construction has limit for improvement the grounding resistance characteristics not only by the improvement of the driven electrode, because that the grounding characteristics are very sensitive to soils(hard, soft). This study is about the construction methods on which the driven electrode can be serially or parallely connected using by hollow screw rod for obtaining the regulative grounding resistance values. The experimental results show that the grounding resistance values are reduced more than 30[%] comparing with the other construction methods under the same conditions(earth resistance, numbers of driven electrode, construction method of serial and parallel, chemicals for reducing grounding resistance, water).

This paper proposes an algorithm for transmit antenna selection in a multi-input multi-output(MIMO) spatial multiplexing system with per antenna rate control(PARC) and an ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) receiver. The active antenna subset is determined at the receiver and conveyed to the transmitter using feedback information on transmission rate per antenna. We propose a serial decision procedure consisting of a successive process that tests whether antenna selection gain exists when the antenna with the lowest pre-processing signal to interference and noise ratio(SINR) is discarded at each stage. Furthermore, we show that 'reverse detection ordering', whereby the signal with the lowest SINR is decoded at each stage of successive decoding, widens the disparities among fractions of the whole capacity allocated to each individual antenna and thus maximizes a gain of antenna selection. Numerical results show that the proposed reverse detection ordering based serial antenna selection approaches the closed-loop MIMO capacity and that it induces a negligible capacity loss compared with the heuristic selection strategy even with considerably reduced complexity.

An efficient method for the desist of active filters from doubly terminated lossless ladder type passive filters is presented. This technique is based on the linear transformation of network variables from the voltage-current domain to a new domain for the active realization of the passive networks. The method developed herein applies the linear transformation to a ladder building block which contains both a shunt and a series reactive arm, resulting in the minimization of the number of operational amplifiers required for the active realization. The validity and efficiency of this method are verified by the design of the 8th-order Chebyshev low-pass filter followed by the measurement of its frequency characteristics which fairly agree with the theoretic ones.
