Emission from road traffic is one of the major sources of air pollution, and provides some undesirable effects on the atmspheric environment and human health. In the city of Seoul, the higher portion of diesel vehicles runs compared with that of other countries. Emission from the diesel vehicles is much higher than that of other vehicles. In this study, the driving pattern of city-bus in Seoul is investigated through on-road vehicle test and compared with the test modes of other countries in order to examine appropriateness of the present test mode that is taken in our country.

This paper presents a new switchable dual mode VCO(Voltage-Controlled Oscillator). The VCO is efficient in dual mode operation and has self-bias adjustment based on the operation frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The switching is done using MOS transistors and tuning is done using MOS varactors. It is implemented using TSMC 0.18${\mu}$m CMOS technology. It is powered by 1.8V supply. The measured results showed that the overall tuning range is approximately 13% at 5 GHz and 8% at 2.4 GHz. The measured phase noise is approximately -102 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset for 5 GHz and -89 dBc/Hz at 600kHz offset for 2.4 GHz. The VCO showed tail currents of 2mA in 5GHz mode and 2.5mA in 2.4GHz mode from a 1.8 V supply, respectively.

A switchable VCO for DECT handset is designed and fabricated. In dual mode radios, a single VCO is desired to operate at two different frequencies to meet the requirement of two mode(Tx, Rx). The three design types of switchable VCO are switched resonator VCO, switched mode VCO and dual band VCO. In this paper, we use the switched resonator VCO type using pin diode switch to change the total amount of capacitance in the tank circuit. At the bias condition of 3 V and 13mA, the output power and phase noise are better than6.5dBm and -104dBc/Hz at 25khz offset from the carrier, respectively , across the operating frequency range. From these results, the fabricated switched VCO is applicable to the DECT handset.

Spin-lattice relaxation pathway of $CH_2$ spin system by two dimensional NOESY sequence has been discussed. Two-dimensional spectra governed by dipolar relaxation mechanism were simulated in term of transfer mode, the generalization of conventionally used magnetization mode in one dimension. The transfer matrix directly related to the Redfield relaxation matrix can be constructed by the multiplet of transfer mode. The observable relaxation transfer modes causes to variation of the off-diagonal signal intensity of phase sensitive NOESY spectra from which variable spectral density can be extracted with simple group theoretical calculation. The variation of the J-coupling peak intensity as a function of the mixing time in 2-D spectra for $n-Undecane-5-^{13}C$ and Bromoacetic $2-^{13}C$ acid has been theoretically traced.

A 6-Gb/s differential voltage mode driver is presented whose output impedance and pre-emphasis level can be controlled independently. The voltage mode driver consists of five binary-weighted slices each of which has four sub-drivers. The output impedance is controlled by the number of enabled slices while the pre-emphasis level is determined by how many sub-drivers in the enabled slices are driven by post-cursor input. A prototype transmitter with a voltage-mode driver implemented in a 65-nm CMOS logic process consumes 34.8-mW from a 1.2-V power supply and its pre-emphasized output signal shows 165-mVpp,diff and 0.56-UI eye opening at the end of a cable with 10-dB loss at 3-GHz.

CNG dual fuel engine for heavy duty diesel engine developed by AFS International in Canada has been equipped to a Korean city bus engine and tested to compare the engine performance and the emission characteristics with the existing diesel fueled engine. Also the dual-fuel engine was applied to the city bus for road test. The results are summarized as follows. Performance optimization has been carried out to have engine power equivalent to or better than the diesel fueled engine. Smoke is decreased by 85% by Korean smoke 3 mode test. By 13 mode test CO is increased by 453% and THC is increased by 2, 086%. NOx is decreased by 7% in laboratory. D-13 test mode was changed in 1996 Korean regulation. Even though THC is increased very much, it's not too serious problem since CO and HC emission of diesel engine is very little compared to gasoline engine and more than 75% of THC is CH$_4$. But the reduction technologies of CO and HC has to be considered.

In this paper, It is proposed through the empirical design of a Conducted EMI filter for noise reduction of power used in electronic devices. For the proposed structure, A-type, B-type, C-type, and D-type structures were designed, and conductive noise reduction was confirmed by using an LC network with various X-capacitors, Y-capacitors, and Air-inductors. 10 [μH] was used for L1 and L2, and 4.7 [nF] was used for C1 and C2. L3 for common mode used 13[μH], and C5, C6, C7 were designed using 10[nF]. The measured insertion loss values of the designed EMI filter were -74.4[dB] at 3.2MHz, -75.4[dB] at 4MHz, and -75.3[dB] at 13.56MHz. Therefore, the proposed EMI filter will be able to reduce power supply noise used in various electronic devices.

The proposed structure is used with TE₁₀ to TEM mode converter, which is realized using 2-step impedance transformer. The pin structure for mode converter is well bonded to the housing so that environment conditions such as vibration or shock are not affected. Proposed W-band power combiner has less than 0.7 dB insertion loss and more than 13 dB return loss from 88 GHz to 98 GHz. The measured output isolations between each other are greater than 7.5 dB from 82 to 100 GHz and phase differences are less than 10 degree from 88 to 96 GHz. Proposed power combiner is expected compact radar and various applications requiring for high power and stable environment conditions.

In this study, the combustion characteristics and durability of a diesel engine using emulsified fuel was investigated. Water was used in oil type emulsified fuel. In order to understand the effect of emulsified fuel in a wide range of engine running conditions, D-13 mode was selected as a test condition, and a durability test was included to understand the long-term effect of water. Combustion pressure in a cylinder, exhaust emissions, specific fuel consumption, sound level and maximum torque were measured. NOx and PM were simultaneously reduced and the specific fuel consumption was increased and decreased at low and high loads, respectively. There was no trouble and any damage on the parts of the cylinder during a 500 hour durability test.
