In this paper, we propose a video enhancement method using generative adversarial networks to remove raindrops and restore the background information on the removed region in the coastal wave video imagery distorted by raindrops during rainfall. Two experimental models are implemented: Pix2Pix network widely used for image-to-image translation and Attentive GAN, which is currently performing well for raindrop removal on a single images. The models are trained with a public dataset of paired natural images with and without raindrops and the trained models are evaluated their performance of raindrop removal and background information recovery of rainwater distortion of coastal wave video imagery. In order to improve the performance, we have acquired paired video dataset with and without raindrops at the real coast and conducted transfer learning to the pre-trained models with those new dataset. The performance of fine-tuned models is improved by comparing the results from pre-trained models. The performance is evaluated using the peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity index and the fine-tuned Pix2Pix network by transfer learning shows the best performance to reconstruct distorted coastal wave video imagery by raindrops.

The terrestrial DMB receivers and their application products need many tests such as normal reception, reception state for the noisy environment, reception state changes due to the changes of output power of the DMB signal, and reception state of various environment. Therefore, the real-time simulation system of the terrestrial DMB broadcasting system is a necessity to the terrestrial DMB research institutions. manufacturers, and other related organizations. In the paper, we design the DMB simulation system, which generates the real-time streams of terrestrial DMB broadcast signals and simulates the real DMB broadcasting signals. The system consists of T-DMB signal generator with PCI interface and simulation software for various functional components of program. The study reveals that the implementation of software-based T-DMB simulation system is possible with low cost. Through various experiments, we evaluate the performance of the simulation system, and we provide the future directions of research.

Construction of a tunnel induces rock masses damage around the tunnel. The degree of damage produced on rock masses will affect on the mechanical and hydraulic behaviors of the rock masses. In this paper, P wave velocity measured by cross-hole test was used to assess rock masses damage around the test tunnel. Initiation of source signal was carried out using mechanical impact at the source installed borehole. In consequence, the generated P wave signal was low noise and apparent wave form, which allows accurate pick-up of first arrival time. From the test, the region where rock damage is expected shows relatively low P wave velocity. In addition, with multiple points of P wave velocity measurement along each cross-hole, two dimensional P wave tomography was obtained. The tomography provides apparent view of the rock damage behind the tunnel. The measured P wave velocity was correlated with features of rock masses, porosity and Q value.

Shear wave velocity (or shear modulus) is very important in the evaluation of seismic performance of a fill dam under an earthquake. A shear wave velocity profile can be determined by surface wave method such as HWAW and SASW methods but this profile has uncertainty caused by spatial variation of material property in a fill dam. This uncertainty in shear wave velocity profile could be considered using a coefficient of variation of material property in the reliability based analysis. In this paper, the possible 600 shear wave velocity profiles in the core and rockfill zone of fill dam were generated by the random shear wave velocity profile generation method, proposed by Hwang and Park, based on the field shear wave velocity profiles determined by the HWAW and SASW methods. And, through the statistical analysis of generated shear wave velocity profiles in the fill dam, the coefficient of variation (COV) of shear wave velocity with depth were evaluated for the core and rock filled zone of fill dam in Korea.

The experiment of unsteady rip current generated at the successive ends of breaking wave crests of honeycomb pattern waves was conducted in a laboratory wave basin, and its time-varying evolution was observed by using ortho-rectified images. The present experiment utilized the generation of a quasi nodal line of the honeycomb-pattern waves formed by out-of-phase motion of two piston-type wavemakers arranged in the transverse direction, instead of the original honeycomb pattern waves which are generated when two wave trains propagate with slightly different wave directions. The velocities of rip current were measured by using the LSPIV (Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry) technique. As a result, the unsteady rip current was generated between successive ends of wave crests, and evolved with its shear fluctuations in this experiment. Also, the time series of LSPIV velocity of the unsteady rip current showd its short component due to waves and its long component due to wave-induced currents.

Conventional GrabCut algorithm is semi-automatic algorithm that user must be set rectangle window surrounds the object. This paper studied automatic object detection to solve these problem by detecting salient region based on Human Visual System. Saliency map is computed using Lab color space which is based on color opposing theory of 'red-green' and 'blue-yellow'. Then Saliency Points are computed from the boundaries of Low-Frequency region that are extracted from Saliency Map. Finally, Rectangle windows are obtained from coordinate value of Saliency Points and these windows are used in GrabCut algorithm to extract objects. Through various experiments, the proposed algorithm computing rectangle windows of salient region and extracting objects has been proved.

본 논문에서는 단일 반송파 MIMO 시스템 기반의 PN 시퀀스를 이용한 반송파 주파수 오차 추정 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 송신되는 각각의 PN 시퀀스들의 위상을 회전시켜 전송하여, 일부 PN 시퀀스들이 서로 상쇄되어 버리는 것을 방지한다. 수신한 PN 시퀀스와 수신기에서 자체 생성한 PN 시퀀스의 공액곱셈 연산을 통해 변조를 제거한 뒤, 다수의 자기 상관기를 이용한 ML 알고리듬 계열의 L&R[3]을 이용하여 반송파 주파수 오차를 추정한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해, 송신 및 수신 안테나가 두 개인 $2{\times}2$ MIMO 시스템에 제안하는 기법을 적용하고 L&R 알고리듬을 이용하여 AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) 채널에서의 분산 성능을 측정하였다. 그 결과 MIMO 시스템에서의 분산 성능이 SISO 시스템에서의 성능과거의 동일함을 보였다.

최근 국내에는 원활한 교통 흐름을 위해 연륙교, 연도교등 다수의 해상 교량을 보유함에 따라 통항 안전 관련 해상사고 발생 가능성이 증가하고 있다. 반송파 위상정보를 이용한 정밀측위기법을 선박항해에 적용하기 위해서는 항해시 교량 및 시설물 등의 영향으로 위성 신호세기가 미약해지는 환경에서도 정밀측위의 연속성을 유지해야한다. 그러나 반송파 위상 정보는 미약한 위성신호세기 환경에서 측정잡음이 급격히 증가하여 반송파 미지정수 검색 및 유지를 어렵게하고 이로 인해 정밀측위를 불가능하게 한다. 본 논문에서는 위성신호가 미약해지는 환경에서 정밀측위의 연속성을 유지하기 위하여 관성센서 정보를 이용하였다. 관성센서와 위성정보를 이용하여 해당위성의 ICP(Integrated Carrier Phase)를 추정한다. 추정한 ICP를 이용하여 반송파 위성을 재구성함으로써 끊김없이 반송파 미지정수를 유지하여 연속적이며 안정적인 측위결과를 생성한다.

본 논문에서는 광원 노출도를 이용한 저조도 영상 시인성 개선 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 저조도 영상의 저주파 성분과 고주파 성분을 각각 개선한 뒤 병합하여 시인성이 개선된 영상을 얻는다. 먼저, 영상에서 추출한 광원 노출도를 기반으로 저주파 성분을 저조도 영역과 고조도 영역으로 구분하고, 각 영역의 특징을 반영한 전달 함수의 독립적인 생성 및 적용을 통해 개선된 저주파 성분을 얻는다. 다음으로 저주파 성분의 개선 결과로부터 저주파 성분의 개선 정도와 텍스처 정도를 얻고, 이들 값을 이용하여 고주파 성분을 효과적으로 개선한다. 실험을 통하여 제안 기법이 기존 기법에 비하여 우수한 시인성 개선 결과를 보임을 확인한다.

Multi-channel DAQ system was developed to predict propagation characteristic of the shock wave generated by linear explosive. The system can generate shock wave from 1000 points per second using a pulsed laser and simultaneously obtain the shock wave signals using 15 chanel contact sensor. The system is expected to pridict the propagation characteristics of various linear explosive-induced pyroshock because it can be used with a user-defined time delay that corresponds to detonation speed of the linear explosive.
