Generally, the propeller shaft rate (PSR) estimation algorithm for the classification of the sonar target has the following problems: it requires both accurate and efficient the fundamental finding method because it is essential and difficult to distinguish harmonic family from the frequency spectrum, and further, it requires an easy design procedure in terms of its structures and parameters. To solve these problems, an evolutionary PSR estimation algorithm using an expert knowledge and the evolution strategy, is proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm effectively solves the problems in the realtime system application.

After prolonged viewing of a moving pattern, a stationary pattern can appear to move in the opposite direction, a phenomenon known as motion aftereffect (MAE). Unlike the classical explanation MAE was not confined to an adapted region; instead it can spread to an adjacent region, which was not adapted previously. In order to examine the relative locus of the mechanism responsible for MAE spreading, a rotating harmonic spiral pattern was presented as an adapting stimulus within an annulus window, and then the duration of MAE was measured in both the adapted annulus region and the non-adapted inner region. Two different kinds of test patterns were used: the same and mirror images of the original adapting pattern. An interesting characteristic of a harmonic spiral is that the orientation of a contour at a given location is different from thar of its mirror image by 90 degrees, and consequently the adapting effect of local motion detector is not expected to occur in the mirror image. The results showed that MAE duration in an adapted region was longer in the same image condition than in its mirror image condition, while MAE duration in an non-adapted region was not found to be different between those two different image conditions. These results suggest that MAE spreading might be produced by the adaptation of global motion detectors, not by local motion detectors.

본 논문은 CDN(Coupling/Decoupling Network)을 이용한 전자파 전도 내성 시험의 측정 불확도를 연구하였다. 측정 불확도의 영향 인자를 추출하여 인자별 불확도를 산출하였다. 측정 불확도 인자는 인가 레벨 교정시 반복 측정, $150\sim50\Omega$ 아답터의 삽입 손실, 신호 발생기의 정확도, 파워미터의 정확도, 전력 증폭기의 하모닉, 전력 증폭기와 CDN의 부정합, CDN과 파워미터 사이의 부정합에 의한 불확도를 고려하였다. 불확도 산출 결과 확장 불확도는 95% 신뢰 구간에서 1.17 dB(k=)를 가지며, 정보기기의 경우 시험 전압 3 V에서 ${\pm}0.42V$의 오차 범위를 가지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 시험기기간의 부정합에 의한 불확도가 불확도 인자에서 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 전자파 전도 내성 시험의 경우 임피던스 매칭이 가장 중요한 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we propose a new sound localization algorithm for an active perception system. In an active perception system, an acquired sound is mixed with the sound of motors. So a sound localization algorithm for an active perception system requires a robustness for the noise and a computational efficiency. The proposed localization algorithm can achieve robustness and efficiency to use only sub-band channels that are contained harmonic structure of the target speech.

In real system application, the propeller shaft rate (PSR) estimation algorithm for the feature extraction of the sonar target operates with the following problems: it requires both accurate and efficient the fundamental finding method because it is essential and difficult to distinguish harmonic family composed of the fundamental and its harmonics from the multiple spectral lines in the frequency spectrum-based sonar target classification, and further, it requires an easy design procedure in terms of its structures and parameters. To solve these problems, an evolutionary PSR estimation algorithm using an expert knowledge and the evolution strategy, is proposed. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, a sonar target PSR estimation is performed. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm effectively solves the problems in the realtime system application.

Time-series data of Normal Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) obtained by the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) satellite imagery gives a waveform that reveals the characteristics of the phenology. The waveform can be decomposed into harmonics of various periods by the Fourier transformation. The resulting $n^{th}$ harmonics represent the amount of NDVI change in a period of a year divided by n. The values of each harmonics or their relative relation have been used to classify the vegetation species and to build a vegetation map. Here, we propose a method to estimate the annual amount of carbon absorbed on the forest from the $1^{st}$ harmonic NDVI value. The $1^{st}$ harmonic value represents the amount of growth of the leaves. By the allometric equation of trees, the growth of leaves can be considered to be proportional to the total amount of carbon absorption. We compared the $1^{st}$ harmonic NDVI values of the 6220 sample points with the reference data of the carbon absorption obtained by the field survey in the forest of South Korea. The $1^{st}$ harmonic values were roughly proportional to the amount of carbon absorption irrespective of the species and ages of the vegetation. The resulting proportionality constant between the carbon absorption and the $1^{st}$ harmonic value was 236 tCO2/5.29ha/year. The total amount of carbon dioxide absorption in the forest of South Korea over the last ten years has been estimated to be about 56 million ton, and this coincides with the previous reports obtained by other methods. Considering that the amount of the carbon absorption becomes a kind of currency like carbon credit, our method is very useful due to its generality.

This paper suggests an algorithm to improve the tracking performance for an underwater acoustic target using the feedback information of acoustic feature of a target. While conventional tracking algorithms use detected acoustic signals only, the proposed algorithm uses detected acoustic signals and target feature information as well. Since the proposed algorithm tracks only the selected measurements using target feature information, it prevents onset of unnecessary tracks and improves tracking performance for target of interest. Furthermore, it optimizes tracking parameters for the target of interest and guarantees robustness and consistency of the track. Some simulations are performed to demonstrate the improved tracking performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we have introduced a new way to design low phase noise PLL which can apply to the Ultra wideband as meeting performance requirements based on structure improvement, circuit supplement, upgraded design method. Before development of the PLL, we simulated spectrum power, phase noise, harmonic characteristic by using ADS(Advanced Designed System). And, we compared result between measurement and simulation. Finally, we confirm a satisfying result which meet performance requirements between required standard and measured value. It will be useful for transceiver of service which operate in Ultra wideband.
