This paper introduces the MPEG-4 video frame-based bitrate control methodology using two dimensional history pool and a sliding window. Proposed method preferentially clusters the encoded results according to the image characteristics and stores those results into the 2 dimensional history pool. Among the stored results in the pool, the sliding window collects the encoded results whose characteristics are very similar to the image frame to be encoded. Feedback regression is finally carried out bated on the collected results. Therefore proposed method can actively adapt to the rapid varying image characteristics by reducing the occurrences of the extrapolations when determining the quantization steps. Proposed method has better performances than the MPEG-4 frame-based bitrate control algorithm by evaluating with the actually encoded bits per frame, encoded PSNR's, and frame skips.

Single-Carrier Frequency division multiplexing (SC-FDM) has been selected for the uplink transmission technique in 3GPP-LTE since it has an advantage of low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in user's perspective. The receiver typically uses a frequency domain equalizer, which, however, suffers from noise boost and/or residual ISI especially when the channel has deep nulls. In this paper, we propose using turbo equalizer to mitigate such a problem. We provide link level performance comparison and an insight into how many iteration is needed for reasonable performance and complexity.

비냉각 적외선 검출기는 산업용 군사용으로 최근 각광을 받고 있다. 이는 주야간 빛이 없는 곳에서도 사물의 열을 감지할 수 있어 인체감지 및 보안감시, 에너지 절감 등에 응용될 수 있는 핵심부품이다. 비냉각 적외선 검출기로는 재료의 저항의 변화를 감지하는 마이크로볼로미터형이 가장 많이 사용된다. 감지재료로는 비정질 실리콘(a-Si)과 산화바나듐(VOx)이 가장 많이 사용된다. VOx 박막은 일반적으로 RF sputtering 방법으로 증착이 되며, 저항이 낮고, 저항의 온도변화 계수(TCR)가 크며 신호 대 잡음 특성이 우수한 반면 산소(oxygen) phase가 다양하여 갓 증착된 상태의 박막은 재현성이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 V 타겟을 사용한 VOx 박막을 증착하는 방법을 개선하여 ZnO 나노박막을 중간에 삽입하여 저항 특성을 조절할 뿐만 아니라 열처리에 의해 TCR 값을 향상시키고, VO2 phase 가 주로 나타나는 박막 증착 및 공정 방법을 소개한다. RF sputtering 장비를 이용하여 산소와 아르곤 가스의 혼합비를 4.5로 하였으며, VOx 증착 시 플라즈마 Power는 150 W 로 하여 상온에서 증착하였다. 갓 증착된 VOx 다층박막의 XRD 스펙트럼은 V2O5 피크가 주된 상을 이루고 있었으며, 산소열처리에 의해 VO2 상이 주로 나타남을 알 수 있었다. TCR 값은 갓 증착된 샘플에서 -0.13%/K의 값을 얻었으며, $300^{\circ}C$에서 50분간 열처리 후 -3.37%/K 으로 급격히 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 저항은 열처리 후 약 100 kohm으로 낮아져 검출소자를 위한 조건에 적합한 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 산소열처리의 온도 및 시간에 따라 TCR 및 표면 거칠기 특성을 조사하였으며, 최적의 열처리 조건을 얻고자 하였다.

The higher the resolution of the image, the higher the satisfaction of the viewers of the image, and the super-resolution imaging has a considerable increase in research value among the fields of computer vision and image processing. In this study, the main features of low-resolution image LR are extracted mainly using deep learning super-resolution models. It learns and reconstructs the extracted features, and focuses on reconstruction-based algorithms that generate high-resolution image HR. In this paper, we investigate SRCNN and VDSR in a super-resolution algorithm model based on reconstruction. The structure and algorithm process of the SRCNN and VDSR model are briefly introduced, and the multi-channel and special form are also examined in the improved performance evaluation function, and understand the performance of each algorithm through experiments. In the experiment, an experiment was performed to compare the results of the SRCNN and VDSR models with the peak signal-to-noise ratio and image structure similarity, so that the results can be easily judged.

A 440MHz wireless and passive surface acoustic wave (SAW) based chemical sensor was developed on a $41^{\circ}YX\;LiNbO_3$ piezoelectric substrate for simultaneous measurement of $CO_2$ gas and relative humidity (RH) using a reflective delay line pattern as the sensor element. The reflective delay line is composed of an interdigital transducer (IDT) and several shorted grating reflectors. A Teflon AF 2400 and a hydrophilic $SiO_2$ layer were used as $CO_2$ and water vapor sensitive films. The coupling of mode (COM) modeling was conducted to determine optimal device parameters prior to fabrication. According to simulation results, the device was fabricated and then wirelessly measured using the network analyzer. The measured reflective coefficient $S_{11}$ in the time domain showed high signal/noise (S/N) ratio, small signal attenuation, and few spurious peaks. In the $CO_2$ and humidity testing, high sensitivity ($2^{\circ}/ppm$ for $CO_2$ detection and $7.45^{\circ}/%$RH for humidity sensing), good linearity and repeatability were observed in the $CO_2$ concentration ranges of $75{\sim}375ppm$ and humidity levels of $20{\sim}80%$RH. Temperature and humidity compensations were also investigated during the sensitivity evaluation process.

For efficiently designing neutron induced gamma spectroscopy sonde, Monte Carlo simulation is employed to understand a dominant location of thermal neutron and classify the formation elements from the energy peak of capture gamma spectrum. A pulsed neutron generator emitting 14 MeV neutron particles was used as a source, and flux of thermal neutron was calculated from the twelve detectors arranged at each 10 cm intervals from the source. Design for reducing borehole effects using shielding materials was also applied to numerical sonde model. Moreover, principal elements and quantities of numerical earth models were verified through the energy spectrum analysis of capture gamma detected from a gamma detector. These results can help to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio, and determine an optimal placement of capture gamma detectors of neutron induced gamma spectroscopy sonde.
