플라즈마를 제어하기 위해서는 플라즈마의 온도, 밀도, 에너지 분포등과 같은 플라즈마의 특성을 정확히 측정할 수 있어야한다. 핵융합발전에서는 플라즈마를 발생하기 위하여 플라즈마의 온도, 밀도 등 각종 변수들을 시공간적으로 계측, 분석할 수 있는 진달설비를 사용하고 있으며, 정확한 플라즈마 제어와 측정을 위한 새로운 진단기술을 개발하고 있다. 그리고 중요한 변수중에 하나인 플라즈마 이온온도를 측정하기 위해 중성입자 검출법이 잘 알려져 있다. 이 실험은 수소 중성입자가 토카막 내부의 플라즈마 이온과 충돌하면서 생성된 고속 중성입자의 에너지를 분석하는 실험이다. 본 연구의 실험방법은 수소 중성입자를 이온빔 장치에서 이온화 시킨 후 자체 제작한 가속기를 통하여 가속시켜 에너지 특성을 분석을 하는 것이다. 본 연구의 실험장치로 에너지 교정용 100 keV 이온빔 소스를 제작 하였고 이온빔 장치 내부에 수소기체를 주입하고 기체방전을 일으켜 플라즈마를 발생시켰다. 이온빔 외부에는 팬을 설치하고 전도성이 강한 물 대신 전도성이 약한 오일을 사용하여 냉각 하였다. 이온빔 장치와 결합될 이온 가속장치는 지름 300 mm, 두께 2 mm의 원형 구리판을 여러층으로 쌓아 전극으로 제작하였고 전극과 전극 사이에서 코로나 방전과 스파크를 방지하기 위해 전극 둘레에 코로나링을 설치 하였다. 또한 전극 사이마다 1G${\Omega}$의 저항을 설치한 후 고전압을 생성하여 이온 가속 효율을 증대시켰다. 진공시스템으로는 Alcatel사의 CFF100 터보분자 펌프와 우성진공사의 MVP24 진공로타리펌프를 결합하여 사용하였으며, 진공도측정은 Alcatel사의 ACS1000 장치를 사용하였다. 고진공후 고속 중성입자의 이온화와 에너지 측정을 위한 전하교환기를 설치하였다. 전하교환기로는 진공시스템을 별도로 설치하고 비용이 비교적 많이 드는 기체형 전하교환기 대신 소형화가 가능하고 유지보수가 좋은 고체형 전하교환기 제작하여 실험 하였다. 전하교환기에서 이온화된 고속 중성입자가 전기장이나 자장에 영향을 받았을때 에너지분포를 디텍터를 통해 측정하였다. 즉, 이온화된 중성입자의 에너지가 실리콘 다이오드를 통해 전압 펄스 신호로 변환되고 이차 증폭기를 통해 전압 펄스 신호들이 증폭한다. 에너지 측정을 위한 디텍터는 소형화가 가능하고 비용이 비교적 적게 드는 실리콘 다이오드를 설치하였다. 본 연구결과 중성입자 에너지 분석 장치가 실제 핵융합 장치의 플라즈마 이온온도와 특성 측정에 적용할 수 있으며, 앞으로 개발될 여러 형태의 응용 플라즈마 발생장치의 플라즈마 진단에 이용될 것으로 기대한다.

We have developed the UHF CW/FM proximity sensor system. The UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor is the system which recognizes the distance from the antenna to the target using the UHF band signal. To adjust sensing distance, we must change modulation frequency parameter or modulation index parameter. When we select the modulation frequency paramter for adjusting sensing distance, new modulation frequency generator and new band pass filter will be required. It is so inefficient that we choose modulation index parameters for adjusting sensing distance. In this paper, theoretical principles of the UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor are analyzed and doppler signals for the distance from the antenna to the target are measured as the modulation index($\beta$) being changed. Three systems of which moduation indices are 38, 50, and 61 are made. We concluded that the sensing distance will decrease as the modulation index($\beta$) increases. It is in accord with the theory of this UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor System.

Abruptly occurred obstacles on highway threaten driving safety. Radar draws the attention to the collision avoidance system because it can be fully operational in all weather, and day and night condition. This paper presents the design, implementation and performance test results of pulsed Doppler radar system for detection and warning of road obstacles. The system is designed to consider highway environment and detection capability about various fixed and moving obstacles. The system consists of 4 subsystems, which include antenna unit, transmitter and receiver unit, radar signal & data processing unit, and controller & display unit. The core technologies include clutter map based change detection for fixed obstacles detection, Doppler estimation for velocity detection of moving targets, and azimuth angle estimation method using monopulse for lane estimation and tracking. The design performance of the developed radar system is verified through experiments using a fixed reference target and moving vehicles in test highway.

Timestamp-Ordering Prltocol among trancaction scheduling alforithms can cause the priority teversion that a transaction with higher priority is processed after the teansaction the trancaction withe lower priority by assigning timestamp to transactions entering system and scheduling them based on the timestamp.To prevent this reversion,we suggest a data priority-based timestamp ordering prioity within the same timestamp group after grouping teansactions into constant time interval based on entering points.To evaluate the performance of this protocol,we compared the performance of this protocol with that of others after constructing the simulation environment with real time database system.We verified that the performance of proposed protocol is supweior to that of timestamp ordering protocol under the comdition of high load and high data conflicts.

When the disabled is operating a rehabilitation assisting system with a joystick by himself, unlike in the case of a normal person, tremor with joystick control or instant miscontrol can often occur. If these misoperations should be directly relayed to the system, shaking or malfunction of the mobile rehabilitation assisting system might be the result. The safety of the disabled is of prime concern. To solve this problem, that is, to prevent the miscontrol of the disabled operator and avoid crashes into his or her surroundings, we propose the force-reflection locomotion algorithm with the joystick. This method uses ultrasonic sensors to measure the distance between the object and mobile robot. Based on the reception of sensory data, the necessary torque is applied via the joystick to the attatched motor. To confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method, the subjects on the reflected force by the dynamic characteristics of the joystick and the reflected force by the distance information are tested Even though there are some differences in human dexterity, we confirmed the fact that the information from the obstacles was relayed to the operator via the joystick and resulted in an improved operational performance and safety level with regard to those obstacles.

과거 8년간의(1985-1992) 통계에 의하면 정면과 측면 충돌시 구속 시스텡의 하나인 Airbag장착 차량의 사망자 및 중상자 수가 현저히 감소하고 있는 것으로 나타나고있다. 그 러나 최근 소비자로 부터의 Airbag에 관한 불만을 보고 받고 있다. 즉 구속효과를 발휘함에 있어 부수적으로 인체 부상을 유발하고 있다는 것이다. 사망내지는 심각한 부상은 방지하고 있으나 경미한 부상은 오히려 증가하고 또한 신체가 적은 여성 운전자나 6세 이하의 어린이 에게는 심각한 부상의 우려가 있다는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 구속시스템의 총아인 Airbag 시스템의 심각한 부수적인 부상 보고를 입증하기 위하여 우리나라 어린이 6세 신체를 기준 으로하여 구속시스템을 착용하지 않았을 경우(실제로 많은 경우), seat belt만 착용시, Airbag만 작용시, 그리고 seat belt와 Airbag을 동시에 사용할 때를 컴퓨터 Simulation Package 이용 신체 dynamic을 모의실험 하였다. 실험결과, 기존에 알려진바와 같이 구속시스템을 사용하지 않았을 경우에 부상은 매우 컸다. 신체 사이즈가 작은 어린이 혹은 여성 운전자의 경우 Seat belt만을 사용한 경우는 Airbag만을 사용한 경우보다는 부상정도가 약간 경미하였으나 두 경우 모두 인체가 구속시스템의 구속 범위를 이탈하여 구속 시스템으로써의 역할을 충분히 하지 못하고 있었다. 특히 Seat belt와 Airbag을 동시에 사용하였을시에도 Airbag이 충분히 개선된 이후라도 신체 사이즈가 작은 경우에는 흉부부위에 의한 충격 흡수가 먼저 이루어지지 못하고, 머리에 먼저 Airbag이 접촉이 되어 충격 흡수 역할보다는 반동효과가 더 커서 머리 및 몸체가 뒤로 Rebound 하는 효과로 머리, 혹은 목의 신체 부상한계를 넘고 있어 큰 부상 내지는 사망에 이르고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 사료된다.의 결과는 자전거 에르고노미터의 결과가 트레드밀의 결과에 87.60%정도 나타났다.음을 관찰하였다. 특히 vitamin C와 E의 병용투여는 상승적으로 적용하여 간세포손상을 더욱 억제시킴을 알 수 있었다.mance and on TFP(Total Factor Productivity) growth which is a pure measure of firm performance. To utilize the advantage of panel data, FEM(Fixed Effect Model) and REM(Random Effect Model) were used. The empirical result shows that the entropy index as a measurement of inter-business relatedness is not significant but technological relatedness index is significant. OLS estimates on pooled data were considerably different from FEM or REM estimates on panel data. By introducing interaction effect among the three variables for business portfolio properties, we obtained three findings. First, only VI (Vertical integration) has a significant positive correlation with ROS. Second, when using TFP growth as an dependent variable, both TR(Technological Relatedness) and f[ are significant and positively rel

A real-time three-dimensional vision is a passive system, which would support various applications including collision avoidance, home networks. It is a good alternative of active systems, which are subject to interference in noisy environments. In this paper, we designed a SAD correlator with respect to resource usage for a real-time three-dimensional vision system. Regular structures, linear data flow and abundant parallelism make the correlation algorithm a good candidate for a reconfigurable hardware. We implemented two versions of SAD correlator in HDL and synthesized them to determine resource requirements and performance. From the experiment we show that the SAD correlator fits into reconfigurable hardware in marginal cost and can handle about 30 frames/sec with $640{\times}480$ images.

A marine accident is caused various legal liability such as compensation for damages on civil law, responsibility on the Criminal Code and administrative sanctions. The results occurred by any acts is not connected directly to the legal responsibility. As a prior condition for these legal liabilities, it is required the causation between the act caused and the occurrence of the effect. It is very difficult to find out the cause in marine accidents, because of trouble of a proof security, the place occurred, time difference between accident and investigation point of time etc.. However, finding out the correct cause is an element important to prevent similar accident and to determine the liability reverted. The logical concept of the causation is not limited, but there is early necessity to limit it in the liability reverted. Therefore, this study aims to suggest reasonable standard to determine liability reverted in marine accidents.

To support anti-collision between ship to ship and sea-search and sea-rescue work, ship automatic identification system(AIS) that can both send and receive messages between ship and VTS Traffic control have been adopted. And port control system can control traffic vessel service which is co-operated with AIS. For more efficient traffic vessel service, ship recognition and display system is required to cooperated with AIS. In this paper, we propose ship detection system which is co-operated with AIS by using background estimation based on image processing for on the sea or harbor image extracted from camera. We experiment with on the sea or harbor image extracted from real-time input image from camera. By computer simulation and real world test, the proposed system show more effective to ship monitoring.

New VHF band for use in VDE is determined by WRC-12 due to the overload of AIS VDL, and the system characteristics of the VDE is recommended as ITU-R M. 1842-1. CS-TDMA, a multiple access method of AIS class B, is recommended as that of the VDE. It is inefficient for CS-TDMA just applying the report interval used in AIS class B to transmit high speed data with higher payload in the aspect of efficiency. In this paper, a simulation is executed in order to determine adequate report interval according to the number of active ships that affects directly network traffic. To this end, the performance of CS-TDMA, which includes the number of received packets, reception success rate, channel utilization, and collision rate, is investigated via a simulation.
