Usage of the inorganic floor finishing material can be advantageous to overcome some problems of traditional organic-based floor finishing material used for hazardous material storage facilities. A spark can be produced by physical impact between the flooring and the flooring disposal equipment while removing the existing flooring. In order to prevent a fire hazard, which may be caused the spark, it is feasible that a construction can be implemented without removing the existing flooring. Moreover, the top coating material containing an antistatic agent is effective to prevent secondary damage caused by static electricity after finishing the construction of the flooring. Therefore, the inorganic floor finishing material of the this study is expected to be beneficial for safety management and economical aspect for inspectors.

The flag State is primarily responsible for implementing international maritime conventions(IMO conventions) and national laws and other standards as far as its own vessels are concerned, on the other hand the port State exercise its rights for the safety and marine environment under international law especially UNCLOS within port and territorial sea. In particular, the port State may take appropriate measures including detention of ships identified as sub-standard vessels which are considered as port State's supplementary role aiming for implementing international and national and regulations. But in the course of implementing port state control, international disputes may happen between port state, coastal state and flag state in spite of making all possible efforts to avoid these disputes. This paper aims to consider legal grounds on port state control(PSC) in international conventions and national laws concerned and deals with contradictions between international and national law arising from exercising PSC by port state control officers(PSCOs).

ENS-2 simulator is the most widely-used simulator in the research of wired/wireless communication. Since an IEEE 802.11 module has been implemented in NS-2. much research using this module has been done for various MAC layer functions. The most important problem in terms of performance is the hidden terminal problem. To solve this problem, the solutions using a busy-tone such as BTMA, DBTMA, etc. have been proposed. In order to be able to use a busy-tone, channels using the frequency bandwidth except the frequency bandwidth of the data channel is required for the collision prevention, and a MAC layer has to be able to menage such multiple channels. In this research, we implement a module that can use a busy-tone in NS-2, implement a modified RI-BTMA by applying the implemented module, and verify its performance.

In this paper, we designed a digital codec of an RFID tag for EPC global generation 2 class 1. There are a large number of studies on RRD standard and anti-collision algorithm but few studies on the design of digital parts of the RFID tag itself. For this reason, we studied and designed the digital codec hardware for EPC global generation 2 class 1 tag. The purpose of this paper is not to improve former studies but to present the hardware architecture, an estimation of hardware size and power consumption of digital part of the RFID tag. Results are synthesized using Synopsys with a 0.35um standard cell library. The hardware size is estimated to be 111640 equivalent inverters and dynamic power is estimated to be 10.4uW. It can be improved through full-custom design, but we designed using a standard cell library because it is faster and more efficient in the verification and the estimation of the design.

This paper proposes 24 GHz power amplifier for automotive collision avoidance and surveillance short range radar using Samsung 65-nm CMOS process. The proposed circuit has a 2-stage differential power amplifier which includes common source structure and transformer for single to differential conversion, impedance matching, and power combining. The measurement results show 15.5 dB maximum voltage gain and 3.6 GHz 3 dB bandwidth. The measured maximum output power is 13.1 dBm, input $P1_{dB}$ is -4.72 dBm, output $P1_{dB}$ is 9.78 dBm, and maximum power efficiency is 17.7 %. The power amplifier consumes 74 mW DC power from 1.2 V supply voltage.

산업기술의 고도화에 따른 IT 산업의 급속한 발전으로 각종 전자, 정보통신기기에 대해 더욱 소형화 고성능화를 요구하고 있다. 이와 같은 경향에 따라 더욱 향상된 기능을 가지고 각종 소자 부품의 개발과 동시에 유독 물질 발생이 없는 청정생산기술 개발에 대한 요구가 끊임없이 제기 되어 왔다. 이러한 요구에 부응하여 기술들이 개발되고 있으며 그 중의 하나로 잉크젯 프린팅 기술이 연구되고 있다. 특히 Dod(Drop on Demand) 방식의 잉크젯은 가정용 프린터로 개발되어 널리 보급된 기술이지만, 이 기술을 PCB 제조기술에 전용하면 친환경 생산공정으로 부품 성장밀도를 증대 시킬 수 있다. 기존의 PCB 제조기술은 전극과 신호 패턴을 형성시키기 위하여 노광공정과 에칭공정을 반복적으로 사용하고 있는데, 노광공정에서 쓰이는 마스크와 유틸리티 설비 유지 비용의 문제가 대두되고 있다. 노즐로부터 분사된 잉크 액적들의 집합으로 기판위에 점/선/면의 인쇄이미지를 구현하게 된다. 그러므로 인쇄 해상도는 잉크액적 및 인쇄 방법, 기판과의 상호작용에 크게 의존하게 된다. 잉크 액적과 기판의 상호작용에 영향을 미치는 요소로는 잉크의 물리화학적 물성(밀도, 점도, 표면장력), 잉크 액적의 충돌 조건(액적 지름, 부피, 속도), 그리고 기판의 특성(친수/소수성, Porous/Nonporous, 표면조도 등)을 들 수 있겠다. 우선적으로 노즐을 통과해서 분사되는 액적의 크기에 따라 기판위에 형성되는 라인의 두께 및 폭이 결정된다. 떨어진 액적이 기판위에서 퍼지는 것을 UV 조사를 통한 가경화 과정을 통해서 최종적으로 라인의 투께 및 폭을 조절하려고 한다. 따라서 선폭 $75{\mu}m$의 일정한 미세 배선을 형성시키기 위해 액적 크기 조절과 탄착 resist 액적 표면의 UV 가경화 조건으로 구현하려고 한다. 또한 DPI(Dot Per Inch) 조절을 통한 인쇄로 탄착 resist의 두께 확보 후 에칭시 박리되는 현상을 억제 시키려 한다.

Multilateration systems are used to provide the position of aircraft in flight or on airport runways. In the multilateration systems, the interrogator is an important transmitter that used to interrogate the airplanes with appropriately scenario in surveillance airspace. Whisper-Shout interrogation sequence, which is one of the key functions of the interrogator, can control airport traffic density when intruder airplanes are coming into the surveillance airspace. Therefore collision chance between airplanes could be reduced and also get highly accurate location of incoming airplane in multilateration systems. In this paper, we developed the interrogator that allows it to transmit Mode A/C and Mode S interrogations which is similar to existing secondary surveillance radar. With appropriately controlled Whisper-Shout sequence in the interrogator, the multilateration systems can avoid synchronous garbling and FRUIT phenomenons caused by receiving multiple responses from a number of airplanes.

An optical network-on-chip(ONoC) architecture is emerging as a new paradigm for solving on-chip communication bottleneck. Recent studies on ONoC have been focusing on supporting the parallel transmission and avoiding path collisions using wavelength division multiplexing(WDM). However, since the maximum number of wavelengths, which a single waveguide can accommodate is limited by crosstalk and insertion loss. Therefore previous WDM studies based on incrementing the number of different wavelengths according to the number of nodes would be infeasible due to the implementation complexity. To solve such problems, we combined time division multiplexing(TDM) and wavelength-routed ONoC, along with an optimized channel allocation algorithm, which can minimize the number of extra wavelength channels and latency caused by combining TDM scheme.

We developed a surveillance tool for collision avoidance of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in urban areas. In our tool, users can visualize the safety distance on the actual 3D map of urban area. The estimated positions of UAVs are assumed to be obtained based on the long-term evolution (LTE) signals. The safety distance is defined to include two or more signals with bias. The safety distance calculation method used in this paper enables simulation similar to the actual urban areas where signals are frequently biased due to multipath. In the simulation, the parameters were set based on the measured values, and the change of the safety distance according to the number of faulty signals was simulated. As a result, increasing the number of faulty signals led to a longer safety distance as expected.

In this study, we propose a W-band frequency modulated continuous wave(FMCW) radar altimeter that can measure the altitude based on the frequency differences of transmitted and received signals. This W-band FMCW system is powered by an altitude control algorithm, which we propose to help prevent collisions of drones with obstacles in real deployment by measuring the relative altitude. It is shown that this algorithm enables the drone to be positioned within a 3 % error of altitude from the desired input height. The chip used in the W-band transmitter and receiver was fabricated using a 65-nm CMOS process, and a horn antenna was directly fed by incorporating an embedded waveguide feeder into the chip. The clutter spectra observed in terrains including soil, grass, and calm lake water were measured and compared, confirming the reflectivity characteristics of various surfaces of different water contents.
