In this paper, an internal GPS antenna for mobile phones is designed and fabricated. For the miniaturization of the antenna, high permittivity dielectric substrate((${\varepsilon}_r$=90) and small ground plane ($13mm{\times}13mm$) are used. To increase the receive gain, the antenna is composed with LNA(Low Noise Amplifier). Results of the manufactured antenna($13mm{\times}13mm{\times}8mm$) show that the maximum antenna gain is about 12 dBi, the axial ratio is less than 3 dB, and the current consumption of LNA is less than 4 mA.

In this paper, after analyzing other models with their advantages and disadvantages, we proposed a simple parametric model for calculating wind speed & direction and wave height & direction at any location around the typhoon at sea. The proposed wind-field model of typhoon is asymmetric, and consists of a circular symmetric wind-field caused by the pressure gradient of stationary typhoon and a moving wind-field caused by the movement of typhoon. By verifying this model through observed data, we found that it is accurate enough to develop the simulation software for training students and seafarers so as to take appropriate actions while being faced with the typhoon at sea.

As a point that should be improved further in present SART, the size, the number, and the economy were enumerated. Some SART developed to solve them in Japan were introduced in this paper. That is automatically operating SART, circular polarization SART and so on. In addition, One Mile SART was mentioned. It is SART miniaturized instead of limiting the function, because all crews and passengers can always carry the small and light SART. The parts were made for trial purposes and the performance was confirmed.

추사파 중에서 항행하는 선박은 여러 유형의 전복 사고 위험에 노출되어 있다. 추사파 중에서의 선체 거동을 규명하기 위해서는 먼저 추사파 중에서 항행하는 선박이 만나는 파도 즉, 만남파의 특성 규명이 필요하다. 이 만남파는 선박의 속도와 관련이 있으며, 본 연구에서는 해양파의 에너지 스펙트럼을 이용하여 만남파의 특성을 검토, 고찰하였다. 그 결과, 추사파 중에서 항행하는 선박이 만나는 파도는 실제 해양파보다 비교적 규칙적인 대파고가 된다는 것을 수치 계산 예를 통해서 규명하였다.

The Angle-of-Arrival (AOA) estimation in real time is one of core technologies for the real-time tracking system, such as a radar or a satellite. Although AOA estimation algorithms for various antenna types have been studied, most of them are for the single-shaped array antenna suitable to the specific frequency. In this paper, we propose the cascade AOA estimation algorithm for the combined array antenna with Uniform Rectangular Frame Array (URFA) and Uniform Circular Array (UCA), with the excellent performance for various frequencies. The proposed technique is consisted of Capon for roughly finding AOA groups with multiple signal AOAs and Beamspace Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) for estimating the detailed signal AOA in the AOA group, for the combined array antenna. In addition, we provide computer simulation results for verifying the estimation performance of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a navigation control method for a vision guided robot. The robot is equipped with one camera, an IBM/AT compatible PC, and a sonar system. The robot can either follow track specified on a monitor screen or navigate to a destination avoiding any obstacles on its way. The robot finds its current position as well as its moving direction by taking an image of a circular pattern placed on the ceiling.

Many of the current visual odometry algorithms suffer from some extreme limitations such as requiring a high amount of computation time, complex algorithms, and not working in urban environments. In this paper, we present an approach that can solve all the above problems using a single camera. Using a planar motion assumption and Ackermann's principle of motion, we construct the vehicle's motion model as a circular planar motion (2DOF). Then, we adopt a 1-point method to improve the Ransac algorithm and the relative motion estimation. In the Ransac algorithm, we use a 1-point method to generate the hypothesis and then adopt the Levenberg-Marquardt method to minimize the geometric error function and verify inliers. In motion estimation, we combine the 1-point method with a simple least-square minimization solution to handle cases in which only a few feature points are present. The 1-point method is the key to speed up our visual odometry application to real-time systems. Finally, a Bundle Adjustment algorithm is adopted to refine the pose estimation. The results on real datasets in urban dynamic environments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.

Recently, it is considered to combine the GPS receiver with the GLONASS for the improvement of performance and accuracy. This combined system reduces errors by SA for GPS, and has merits to select receivable satellite. In this paper, aperture-coupled patch antenna and small sized ceramic dielectric patch antenna are designed and implemented for GPS/GLONASS combined receiver, which show a wideband characteristics with circular polarization. The manufactured antennas have the bandwidth more than 240 MHz, VSWR less than 1.5:1, and the axial ratio less than 3dB, and satisfy required characteristics of the GPS/GLONASS antenna.

In the sea various methods have been conducted to capture wave energy which include the use of pendulums, pneumatic devices, etc. Floating devices, such as a cavity resonance device take advantages of both the water motion and the wave induced motions of the floating body itself. The wave energy converter is known commercially as the WAGB(Wave Activated Generator Buoy) and is used in some commercially available buoys to power navigation aids such as lights and horns. This wave energy converter consists of a circular flotation body which contains a vertical water column that has free communication with the sea. A theoretical analysis of this power generated by a pneumatic type wave energy converter is performed and the results obtained from the analysis are used for a real wave energy converter buoy. This paper is shown to have an optimum value for which maximum power is obtained at a given resonant wave period Also, the length of the internal water column corresponds to that of the water mass in the water column. If designed properly, wave energy converter can take advantage not only of the cavity resonance, but also qf the heaving motion of the buoy. Finally, simulation is performed with a LabVIEW program and the simulation results are applied to a wave energy simulator for modifying design data for a wave energy converter.
