Old people and patients with cardiovascular disease could die of a heart attack in the bath with heated water for a long time. Various researches have been studied to prevent these accidents from happening such as measuring the ECG signal when taking bath. However, these devices are hard to use and the higher price is not easily accepted by the public. In this paper, a low-cost and use-friendly, real time high precision water temperature monitoring device to prevent heart attack in the bath was developed. The device with waterproof design that lets the device can float on the surface of the water, and an accurate way to make water temperature measurement method was proposed by this paper that is immerging the sensor into water with 4cm depth to measure the temperature of underwater. The manufactured device was conducted to two experiments; one was to verify the basic functions of the device, and another one was for compare the proposed device with commercial products for monitoring the water temperature in the bathtub. As the experimental results shown, the proposed device has stable performance for the water temperature measurement and communicating with laptop in wireless.

In industrial situation, electronic and electro-mechanical systems have been using different type of batteries in rapidly increasing numbers. These systems commonly require high reliability for long periods of time. Wider application of battery for low-power design as a prime power source requires us knowledge of failure mechanism and reliability of batteries in terms of load condition, environment condition and other explanatory variables. Battery life is an important factor that affects the reliability of such systems. There is need for us to understand the mechanism leading to the failure state of battery with performance characteristic and develop a method to predict the life of such battery. The purpose of this paper is to develope the methodology of monitoring the health of battery and determining the condition or fate of such systems through the performance reliability to predict the remaining useful life of primary battery with load condition, operating condition, environment change in light of battery life variation. In order to evaluate on-going performance of systems and subsystems adopting primary batteries as energy source, The primitive prototype for performance reliability analysis device was developed and related framework explained.

In automotive applicatons or water vehicles, the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) stack is keep moving while their operation. Especially the inclination environment can take a effect to fuel cell stack perfromance, because this condition can cause a bad effect to water exhaust of fuel cell stack. In this study, a large scale stack(over 100kW power) is inclined upto 30 degree in lengthwise and crosswise using stack lift equipment. And the stack is operated in 10~100% load. No significant change has appeared in crosswise inclined condition and lenthwise low angle. But in lenthwise large angle tilting condition, the fuel cell performance has significantly decreased. And this performance decrease is aggravated in low load. An active water exhaust device is applied to the stack to prevent the performance decrease. And in lenthwise large angle tilting condition, this device cause a good effect to fuel cell stack performance.

Sensors collect information for Internet of Things (IoT)-based services. However, indoor construction sites have a poor communication environment and many interfering elements that make it difficult to collect sensor information. In this study, a network was constructed between a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-based IoT device based on a serverless IoT framework and a router. This experimental environment was applied to large- and small-scale indoor construction sites. Experiments were performed to test the communication performance of BLE-based IoT devices and routers at indoor construction sites. An analysis of the received signal strength indication (RSSI) graph patterns collected from the communication between the BLE-based IoT devices and routers for different testbed site situation revealed areas with good communication performance and poor communication performance due to interfering factors. The results confirmed that structural components of the building as well as the materials, equipment, and temporary facilities used in indoor construction interfere with the communication performance. Construction project managers will require improved technical knowledge of IoT, such as optimizing the router placement and matching communication between the router and workers, to improve the communication performance for large-scale indoor construction.

현재 일반적으로 사용되는 Time Domain Sampling(아래 TDS) 방식의 SAW Device는 빠른 Data 처리를 할 수 있지만 그만큼의 빠른 sampling 속도를 요구하기 때문에 고속의 AD 컨버터가 필요하다. 이 고속의 AD 컨버터는 고가의 장비로 Device 제작에 부담이 되는 실정이다. 반면에 Frequency Domain Sampling(아래 FDS) 방식으로 구현된 SAW Device는 고속의 sampling을 요구하지 않기 때문에 고가의 고속 AD 컨버터가 필요하지 않다. 이렇게 느린 sampling 속도는 상대적으로 고속의 processing을 요구하게 되는데 이는 저가의 Embedded System만으로도 구현이 가능하기 때문에 가격대비 성능에서 효율이 훨씬 높다고 할 수 있다. 그럼에도 FDS 방식의 SAW sensor를 제작하는 것이 까다롭기 때문에 현재 구현된 FDS 방식의 SAW Device는 매우 드문 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존의 TDS용 SAW sensor를 그대로 이용한 FDS 방식의 SAW Device에 대해 설계 및 구현한다.

We demonstrate highly manufacturable Multi-channel Field Effect Transistor (McFET) on bulk Si wafer. McFET shows excellent transistor characteristics, such as $5{\sim}6 times higher drive current than planar MOSFET, ideal subthreshold swing, low drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) without pocket implantation and negligible body bias dependency, maintaining the same source/drain resistance as that of a planar transistor due to the unique feature of McFET. And suitable threshold voltage ($V_T$) for SRAM operation and high static noise margin (SNM) are achieved by using TiN metal gate electrode.

기업은 지속적인 발전과 기업가치 제고를 위하여 연구개발을 수행하고 이로 인해 발생한 무형자산으로서 특허를 취득한다. 본 연구는 연구개발활동과 특허가 기업의 경영성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 확인하기 위하여 연구개발정보와 특허정보, 경영성과 정보가 모두 공시된 의료기기 제조기업 103개 사를 선별하였다. 해당 기업의 특허건수, 연구개발비, 기업규모, 이노비즈 인증여부를 독립변수로 설정하고, 기업의 매출, 무형자산, 영업이익률, 순이익률, 기업평가등급, 매출/이익 관련 각종 재무비율을 종속변수로 사용하였다. 그 결과 연구개발비는 매출액, 영업이익률, 순이익률, 기업평가등급, 현금흐름등급, 순이익증가율, 자기자본순이익률, 투하자본이익률, 총자본회전률 등 대부분의 지표에 대해 음(-)의 영향을 미치고, 무형자산에만 양(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 국내등록특허는 매출액, 현금흐름등급, 투하자본이익률에 음(-)의 영향을 미치고, 순이익증가율에는 양(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 기업 특성 변수가 영향을 미치는 기업 성과변수는 매출액과 현금흐름등급이었다. 영세한 중소기업이 대부분을 차지하는 의료기기 산업의 특성 상, 연구개발활동과 특허취득이 단기간에는 기업 경영에는 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만, 연구개발 후 임상시험과 인허가의 절차를 거쳐야 하는 의료기기 산업의 특성을 반영할 때 장기적으로는 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 것이라 예상된다.

Photonics offers a solution to data communication between logic devices in computing systems; however, the integration of photonic components into electronic chips is rather limited due to their size incompatibility. Dimensions of photonic components are therefore being forced to be scaled down dramatically to achieve a much higher system performance. To integrate these nano-photonic components, surface plasmon-polaritons and/or energy transfer mechanisms are used to form plasmonic chips. In this paper, the operating principle of plasmonic waveguide devices is reviewed within the mid-infrared spectral region at the 2 ${\mu}m$ to 5 ${\mu}m$ range, including lossless signal propagation by introducing gain. Experimental results demonstrate that these plasmonic devices, of sizes approximately half of the operating free-space wavelengths, require less gain to achieve lossless propagation. Through optimization of device performance by means of methods such as the use of new plasmonic waveguide materials that exhibit a much lower minimal loss value, these plasmonic devices can significantly impact electronic systems used in data communications, signal processing, and sensors industries.

In this paper, the feasibility of the high-performance damping device vibration suppression of stay cables has been investigated. The proposed damping system consists of a linear viscous damper and a scissor-jack-type toggle linkage. Since the mechanism of the scissor-jack-type toggle linkage amplifies the relative displacement of the linear viscous damper, it is expected that the capacity of the viscous damper used in the scissor-jack-damper energy dissipation system can be reduced without the loss of the control performance. Numerical simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the damping system employing the scissor-jack-type toggle linkage. Therefore, the proposed damping system could be considered as one of the promising candidates for suppressing vibration of stay cable.
