In this paper, we propose a dual-mode frequency tripler using push-push and stacked FET structures. The proposed circuit can operate either in frequency multiplier mode or in amplifier mode. In the frequency multiplier mode, push-push frequency multiplication is achieved by allowing input signals with particular phase shifts. In the amplifier mode, the device operates as a distributed amplifier to obtain high gain. Also both modes were designed using stacked FET structure. The designed circuit showed frequency tripled output power of 9.7 dBm at 2.4 GHz with the input at 800 MHz. On the other hand, in the amplifier mode, the device showed 8.9 dB of gain to generate 19.5 dBm at 800 MHz.

In IEEE 802.11b wireless network, the access point(AP) sends beacons periodically to manage stations when they are running in low power mode. Stations contend for the transmission medium after they receive a beacon and continuously check its state until it becomes available. Thus the energy consumption of each station increases as the load of wireless network. In this paper, we propose a method to reduce energy consumption controlling virtual bitmap in wireless network with multiple stations. The problems of low power mode in IEEE 802.11b wireless interface are described and a new method to reduce energy consumption is proposed. The proposed method is simulated with the network simulator, ns2, and compared with the low power mode of the IEEE 802.11b. The result measured in terms of station's wakeup time shows some enhancement in energy consumption when multiple stations are communicating through the AP in wireless network.

We propose a novel still image compression system, which is superior in its function than the JPEG2000 system developed by David Taubman. The system shows 40 : 1 high compression ratio using $2\times2$ bitmatrix subblock coding. The $2\times2$ bitmatrix subblock is constructed in the bitplanes by organizing the bits into subblocks composing of $2\times2$matrices. The arithmetic coding performs the high compression by the bitmatrices in the subblock. The input of the system consists of a segmentation mode and a ROI(Region Of Interest) mode. In segmentation mode, the input image is segmented into a foreground consisting of letters and a background consisting of the remaining region. In ROI mode, the input image is represented by the region of interest window. The high compression ratio shows that the proposed system is competent among the JPEG2000 products currently in the market. This system also uses gray coding to improve the compression ratio.

The USM uses friction between a mobile part (rotor) and a vibration part(stator), which is different from the principle of the conventional motor based on the interaction of electric and magnetic fields. In this thesis, a flat-type $L_1-B_8$ mode USM was designed and fabricated the characteristics of an ultrasonic vibration. The results of fabricated USM are as follows: (1) In case of ultrasonic motor with elastic-body of stainless, when applied voltage, frequency, pressing force of rotor were 50 [V], 27.9 [kHz], 1.5 [N], 5.0[mN m] respectively, the speed of revolution could be presented up to 0 [cm/s]. (2) In case of ultrasonic motor with elastic-body of brass, when applied voltage, frequency, pressing force of rotor were 50 [V], 21.4 [kHz], 1.5 [N], 1.4[mN m]respectively, the speed of rotor revolution was presented up to 0 [cm/s]. (3) The USM of elastic-body of stainless showing 1.17[%], somewhat low, in the maximum efficiency according to torque was superior to the USM of elastic-body of brass showing 0.34 [%]. The Flat-type $L_1-B_8$ mode USM had characteristics of typical drooping torque-speed, large torque and high speed, and operating in both directions by phase reversal.

We performed Raman spectroscopy on two different over-doped Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_8+x (BSCCO), of which superconducting transition temperatures are 89 K and 77 K. Line-shape analysis of the Raman-spectrum was done, focused on B_1g bond buckling mode which have drawn a lot of attention, since photoemission studies showed an evidence for strong coupling between the mode and electron. The line-shapes show asymmetry and are well fitted by the Fano line-shape formula. Remarkably, we found that the peak line-widths from B_1g bond buckling mode in BSCCO show much broader than those in YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x. The broad line width can be attributed to the superstructure modulation of BSCCO. Our results imply that B_1g bond buckling mode may have close relation to the origin of superconductivity or to boosting the superconducting transition temperature in BSCCO.

In this paper, a method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in B-mode short axis echocardiography without manual intervention by human operator. The proposed method makes use of the weighted model that approximates to endocardium and incomplete edge information for echocardiography. Therefore, this method is more effective than boundary detection by only edge information. The implementation of this method is as follows. First, the proposed algorithms are used in order to detect the approximate boundary, then a weighted model with the approximate boundary is constructed. Finally, the cavity center of the left ventricle performing the Hough transform with the weighted model and edge image can be found automatically, and then the endocardial boundary using detected center, original image, weighted model, and edge image can be detected. validations of this method with experimental results on echo image of dog's heart and clinical echocardiography is verified.

This paper proposed an ultra low-power CMOS exponential voltage-mode circuit using the Pseudo-exponential function for realizing the exponential characteristics. The proposed circuit provides high dB-linear output voltage range at low-voltage applications. In a $0.25\;\mu m$ CMOS process, the simulations show more than 35 dB output voltage range and 26 dB with the linearity error less than $\pm0.5\;dB.$ The average current consumption is less than 80 uA. The proposed circuit can be used for the design of an extremely low-power variable gain amplifier (VGA) and automatic gain control (AGC).

We calculate in this study the pressure dependence of the frequencies for the Raman modes of A ($A_g$), B ($A_g$, $B_{2g}$) and C ($B_{1g}$, $B_{3g}$) at constant temperatures of 274 and 294K (room temperature) for the solid phase I of benzene. Using the mode Gr$\ddot{u}$neisen parameter of each lattice mode, which correlates the pressure dependence of the crystal volume and the frequency, the Raman frequencies of those modes are computed for phase I of benzene. Our results show that the Raman frequencies of the three lattice modes (A, B and C) increase as the pressure increases, as expected. The temperature effect on the Raman frequencies is not significant, which can be explained by the experimental measurements.

초음파를 이용하여 가축의 생체 상태에서 도체형질을 추정하기 위한 연구가 50년대부터 시작되었다. 초기에는 초음파 반사파를 진폭으로 표시하는 방식인 A-mode(Amplitude-mode)를 이용하여 가축의 등지방두께 및 등심두께를 측정하였으며, 60년대부터 반사파의 강약을 명암으로 나타내는 B-mode (Brightness-mode) 방식으로 두께 및 면적을 측정하였다. 일본에서는 70년대 후반부터 등심 내 지방교잡을 조사하기 위한 연구가 활발하게 진행되었으나 미국, 유럽 등에서는 최근에서야 비로소 marbling 추정을 위한 연구가 시도되고 있다. 우리나라에서는 90년대 초부터 한우의 경쟁력을 높이기 위하여 육질향상에 중점을 두고 종모우의 조기 선발과 적정한 출하시기 판정에 초음파를 적용시키기 위한 연구가 여러 연구기관 및 학계에서 시도되었으나 인체에서 임신진단용으로 이용되거나 외국의 육우에 사용하던 기종을 한우에 적용시킴으로서 육질능력을 판정하는데 기계의 정확도가 많이 떨어지고 있는 실정이다.

The object of this paper is to make temporal direct mode clear by providing a solution to the following problem : if the co-located block in the list 1 reference picture for direct mode has only the 1ist 1 motion vector or both the 1ist 0 and list 1 motion vectors, then which motion vector will be used for the direct mode motion vector calculation\ulcorner This paper also shows how to derive reference picture index and direct mode motion vector for each list in order to guarantee the high coding efficiency. when the co-located macroblock is in intra mode. Furthermore, the reasonable calculation methods for the direct mode motion vectors in the various cases are presented. Finally, experimental results show that the proposed temporal direct mode provides the comparable performance against the spatial direct mode. Therefore, the simulation proves that the proposed temporal direct mode is acceptable.
