In this paper, the antenna which has a multiband operation (GSM850, EGSM, DCS1800, USPCS, W-CDMA) is proposed. This antenna was designed by the commercial software HFSS 3-D EM simulator, and it is organized by using a meander branch structure which has a via and lines on FR-4$(\varepsilon_r=4.4)$ substrate. Especially, it has a gap feeding structure which makes good operation at overall bandwidth. The designed antenna is manufactured by PCB processing, and measured by using a network analyzer and a test chamber. The manufactured antenna with the dimension of 8 mm width, 20 mm height and 3.2 mm thickness is able to applied as an internal antenna for multiband mobile phones.

In this paper, an integrated control system for removable welfare equipment disinfection is implemented. The integrated control system consisted of a hydrogen peroxide vapor supply control circuit, a sterilization chamber control circuit using low vacuum, and a washing control circuit using microbubble. A Smart-phone based remote control and monitoring system is implemented to monitor the operating status and communication status for the integrated control system. An experiment is set up to evaluate the performance of the integrated control system. The experiment result confirms that signal and operation status can transmit and receive within the control circuit. The integrated control system shows good performance in terms of sensor interface, communication state and control. In future research, the proposed control system should deploy to an actual system for trial test to prove its performance.

To ensure the performance of radon detectors, three passive radon detectors ($RadTrak^{(R)}$, $Radopot^{(R)}$, and $E-PERM^{(R)}$)have been reviewed. The difference ratios of RadTrak and Radopot tested in the radon standard chamber were -13.2% and -6.0%, respectively, which were in good accordance within 20% of the value measured by $AlphaGUARD^{(R)}$. To ensure the performance of the long term measurement, the 3 detectors were installed at the same position of approximately one hundred of dwellings for one year. The correlation curve between RadTrak and Radopot shows good agreement with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of 0.91. However, The correlation curve between E-PERM and Radopot shows bad agreement ($R^2$ = 0.021). In addition, the distribution map of annual mean indoor gamma dose rate measured with E-PERM was not in accordance with the distribution map of outdoor gamma dose rate measured by Portable Ion Chamber. According to the results, some requisites for the selection of the radon passive detectors in the large-scale indoor radon survey were discussed.

수문조사기기의 검정은 수문조사에 활용할 기기를 일관되고 표준화된 기준으로 검사하여 수문조사에 적합한 기기인지 확인하는 것이다. 이러한 검정은 국가수문자료의 신뢰도를 높이고 유지하는 기본적이고 중요한 업무이다. 검정대상기기는 강수량측정기기, 유속측정기기, 수위측정기기, 부유사측정기기, 토양수분측정기기, 증발산량측정기기로 총 6가지이며, 2009년부터 국토교통부 위탁사업으로 한국건설기술연구원(유량조사사업단)에서 수행하고 있다. 특히 유량조사사업단에서는 유속측정기기를 제외한 나머지 5개 수문조사기기에 대해 검정을 수행하고 있다. 연도별로 2009년부터 2015년까지 98대, 334대, 572대, 539대, 359대, 682대, 690대로 총 3,274대를 검정하였고, 관측기종별로 강수량 1,579대, 수위 1,589대 부유사 23대, 토양수분 33대, 증발산량 50대이다. 신청기관별로는 국토교통부(홍수통제소) 1,847대, 환경부(국립환경과학원) 4대, 한국건설기술연구원(유량조사사업단 포함) 81대, K-water 338대, 한국수력원자력(주) 91대, 일반업체 913대에 대한 검정을 실시하였다. 검정을 실시한 강수량측정기기 1,579대 중 보정없이 합격된 기기는 1,495대, 허용오차기준에 미달되어 보정 실시 후 합격한 기기는 76대이며, 불합격 처리된 기기는 8대이다. 수위측정기기는 합격이 1,586대, 기준에 미달되어 불합격된 기기가 2대로 나타났다. 강수량측정기기의 각 연도대비 통계분석 결과 보정률은 2009년 97대 중 8대(8.2%), 2010년 194대 중 3대(1.5%), 2011년 180대 중 24대(13.3%), 2012년 175대 중 17대(9.7%), 2013년 165대 중 15대(9.1%), 2014년 547대 중 8대(1.5%), 2015년 221대 중 9대(4.1%)로 다소 낮은 수치로 나타났다. 이처럼 보정률이 낮게 나타난 이유는 관할기관의 검정을 위한 유지관리 및 사업자의 사전검사 등을 통해 감소한 것으로 판단되며, 이와 같은 결과는 수문자료의 품질 및 신뢰도 향상으로 이어졌다. 그러나 여전히 선진국에 비해 수문조사기기 검정의 중요성에 대한 인프라 구축이 미흡한 실정이다. 수문조사기기 검정의 선진국이라 할 수 있는 미국의 경우 USGS에서 HIF(Hydrogical Istrumentation Facility)라는 별도 조직을 운영하여 관측기기의 렌탈, 수리, 교정 및 검정, 개발, 교육 등 이러한 작업을 일괄 수행하고 있고 조직 내 자체 시설로 수중펌프 시험소, 자연과 유사한 환경에서 테스트 하는 장소, 대형온도챔버 등을 갖추고 있으며, 이러한 시설을 이용하여 기기의 교정 및 검정, 연구 등을 현장과 비슷한 환경에서 다양한 실험을 통해 검정방법을 비교, 분석하는 것을 볼 수 있다. 현재 우리나라의 수문조사기기는 다양한 방법으로 현장에 설치되어 검정방법의 다양성이 요구된다. 향후 우리나라도 HIF와 같이 다양하고 선진화된 시설과 기술을 개선하고 다각적인 시험 과정을 통해 수준 높은 검정방법체계를 갖추려는 노력이 필요하다.

Purpose: Although the damage caused by abnormal temperatures is extensive, blow-up or black ice is typical in concrete structures. In this study, PCM with high phase change energy was mixed with concrete to reduce temperature damage to concrete pavement. Method: In order to reduce temperature damage to low temperatures and high temperatures, capsule-type PCM with phase change temperatures of 4.5℃ and 44℃ was replaced by 10%, 30%, and 50%, and thermal performance experiments and compressive strength experiments were conducted using thermocouples and variable chambers. Result: As a result of the thermal performance experiment, it was found that the incorporation of PCM improves temperature resistance by up to 25% or more, and increases thermal resistance at all temperatures with high specific heat when substituted in large amounts. As a result of the compression strength experiment, a substitution of 30% or more resulted in a decrease in the compression strength, and a large strength difference was shown based on the phase change temperature of the PCM. Conclusion: The incorporation of PCMs has been shown to increase the thermal performance of concrete, with the greatest increase in thermal performance near the phase change temperature of PCM. In addition, a small strength reduction of 10% to 20% occurs at the highest substitution rate of 50% substitution, so there is no significant problem with usability, and additional PCM substitution is expected to improve thermal performance.

This study was conducted to compare the quality of baby leaves grown under several temperature conditions and the storage properties of MA storage for romaine lettuce. It was grown for 5 weeks under an artificial light source (200 µmol·m^-2·s^-1) in a chamber at 21℃, 28℃, and 35℃. The growth and quality of red romaine lettuce that grown in different temperatures were investigated at the end of cultivation, and the oxygen, carbon dioxide, and ethylene concentrations in the 20,000 cc OTR film and perforated film packed with lettuces were measured for 36 and 12 days, respectively. The red romaine lettuce baby leaf was examined for color, chlorophyll, and visual quality at the end of storage. The maximum quantum yield of baby leaf grown in different temperatures at 7days before the harvest was higher at 21℃ and 28℃ growth temperature treatments. On harvest day, the leaf length measured was longest at 28℃, and the leaf width was wider at 21℃ and 28℃, and the number of leaves was similar to 5-6 at all cultivation temperatures. Leaf weight, root weight, and dry weight were found to be higher at 21℃, and tended to decrease as the cultivation temperature increased. The concentration of ethylene in the film of the MA storage treatments was maintained at 1~2 µL·L^-1 until the end of storage in all treatments regardless of the cultivation temperature. Oxygen concentration in the MA treatment used 20,000 OTR film was maintained at around 19.5%, and carbon dioxide concentration around 1% that was satisfied the CA conditions. Both Hunter a^* and b^* values were generally higher in the MA storage treatment at the end of storage day. The chlorophyll content was decreased as the cultivation temperature increased, and was lower in the MA storage treatment than in the perforated film treatment. Visual quality was 3 points or higher in the MA storage treatment at 21℃ growth treatment, and it was maintained marketability. As the above results, the growth of baby leaves of romaine lettuce was the best at 21℃ treatment, and the lower the cultivation temperature, the longer the shelf life. And it was possible to extend the shelf life by 3 times by showing excellent visual quality at the MA storage treatment that satisfies the carbon dioxide concentration of CA condition until the end of storage day.
