As headlamp technology advances, newly developed various headlamps were introduced in the market. The objective of this study is to quantitatively analyze the detection distance of the recently developed LED headlamps and existing headlamps, complying with specific technical standard. Background: The detection distance of headlamps is very important to prevent automobile accident at night time. The studies of detection distance of LED, Halogen and HID headlamp have been conducted, but no study has shown the detection distance of pedestrian target with various colors (Black, White, Blue). Method: The experiment of detection distance was conducted with 30 people, which divide into 2 groups as 15 men and 15 women. Automatic transferable target on the rail was manufactured in order to reduce the error of study's result, and ANOVA also conducted to analyze the main effect with sign color, sex and headlamp classified by detection distance. In addition, the luminance by average detection distance was measured as well. Results: The detection distance of headlamps was HID > LED > Halogen. The luminance measure of LED headlamp was lower than HID and Halogen headlamps. Conclusion: The headlamp performs a very significant role for safety at night time but it needs to be improved through assessment of visual characteristics. Also, it needs to be suggested the need of test method for dynamic detection distance concerning technical development is suggested.

We are interested in the distance problem between two objects in three dimensional Euclidean space. There are many distance problems for various types of objects including line segments, boxes, polygons, circles, disks, etc. In this paper we present an iterative algorithm for finding the distance between two given ellipses. Numerical examples are given.

This paper suggests an LDA-based long distance face recognition algorithm for intelligent surveillance system. The existing face recognition algorithm using single distance face image as training images caused a problem that face recognition rate is decreased with increasing distance. The face recognition algorithm using face images by actual distance as training images showed good performance. However, this also causes user inconvenience as it requires the user to move one to five meters in person to acquire face images for initial user registration. In this paper, proposed method is used for training images by using single distance face image to automatically create face images by various distances. The test result showed that the proposed face recognition technique generated better performance by average 16.3% in short distance and 18.0% in long distance than the technique using the existing single distance face image as training. When it was compared with the technique that used face images by distance as training, the performance fell 4.3% on average at a close distance and remained the same at a long distance.

A distance relay has been widely used for transmission line protection. The distance relay detects a fault based on the calculated impedance i.e. the ratio of the voltage to the current measured from a current transformer (CT) and a coupling capacitor voltage transformer (CCVT), respectively. When a fault occurs and a CT saturates due to the magnitude of fault current, dc component, primary time constant, and the remanent flux of the iron core, the secondary current of a CT is distorted On the other hand, non-fundamental components generated during a fault can increase the error of a CCVT, particularly when a fault distance is short. The distortion of the current and voltage can cause mal-operation or the operating time delay of a distance relay. This paper describes the response of a distance relay considering the errors of a CT and a CCVT. The results indicate that the severe distortion of a CT and a CCVT have noticeable effect to a distance relay.

In this paper, we report a novel algorithm based on phase displacement, which supplements conventional TOF methods for distance measurement using an ultrasonic wave. The proposed algorithm roughly measures the distance between the transmission part and the receiving part by using the initial TOF. Thereafter, the precise distance is determined by measuring the phase displacement value between the synchronizing transmission signal and the signal obtained at the receiving end. A distance measurement experiment using a micrometer was performed to verify the accuracy of the ultrasonic wave sensor system. We found that the mean errors from the one adopting the distance measurement algorithm based on phase displacement varied from a minimum of 0.03 mm to a maximum of 0.09 mm. In addition, the standard deviation varied from a minimum of 0.04 mm to a maximum of 0.07 mm, thus giving a precision of ${\pm}0.1$ mm.

We propose a new distance measure between 2-dimensional points to provide a total order for an entire point set and to reflect the correct geometric meaning of the naturalness of the point ordering. In general, there is no total order for 2-dimensional point sets, so curve reconstruction algorithms do not solve the self-intersection problem because the distance used in the previous methods is the Euclidean distance. A natural distance based on Brownian motion was previously proposed to solve the self-intersection problem. However, the distance reflects the wrong geometric meaning of the naturalness. In this paper, we correct the disadvantage of the natural distance by introducing a polar-natural distance, and we also propose a new curve reconstruction algorithm that is based on the polar-natural distance. Our experiments show that the new distance adequately reflects the correct geometric meaning, so non-simple curve reconstruction can be solved.

This paper concerns the rate of convergence in the multidimensional normal approximation of functional of Gaussian fields. The aim of the present work is to derive explicit upper bounds of the Kolmogorov distance for the rate of convergence instead of Wasserstein distance studied by Nourdin et al. [Ann. Inst. H. Poincar$\acute{e}$(B) Probab.Statist. 46(1) (2010) 45-98].

This paper discusses the operation zone of distance relay on transmission line connected unified power flow controller(UPFC). Depending on operating conditions of UPFC, the trip characteristics of distance relay is influenced by the prefault conditions. In this paper, apparent impedance of distance relay influenced by the UPFC control of distance is calculated.

Representation and quantification of fuzziness are required for the uncertain system modelling and controller design. Conventional results show that entropy of fuzzy sets represent the fuzziness of fuzzy sets. In this literature, the relations of fuzzy enropy, distance measure and similarity measure are discussed, and distance measure is proposed. With the help of relations of fuzzy enropy, distance measure and similarity measure, fuzzy entropy is represented by the newly proposed distance measure. With simple fuzzy set, example is illustrated.
