This paper investigates the vertical profiles of horizontal mean wind speed and direction based on the synchronized measurements from a Doppler radar profiler and an anemometer during 16 tropical cyclones at a coastal site in Hong Kong. The speed profiles with both open sea and hilly exposures were found to follow the log-law below a height of 500 m. Above this height, there was an additional wind speed shear in the profile for hilly upwind terrain. The fitting parameters with both the power-law and the log-law varied with wind strength. The direction profiles were also sensitive to local terrain setups and surrounding topographic features. For a uniform open sea terrain, wind direction veered logarithmically with height from the surface level up to the free atmospheric altitude of about 1200 m. The accumulated veering angle within the whole boundary layer was observed to be $30^{\circ}$. Mean wind direction under other terrain conditions also increased logarithmically with height above 500 m with a trend of rougher exposures corresponding to lager veering angles. A number of empirical parameters for engineering applications were presented, including the speed adjustment factors, power exponents of speed profiles, and veering angle, etc. The objective of this study aims to provide useful information on boundary layer wind characteristics for wind-resistant design of high-rise structures in coastal areas.

This paper studied a method of estimating target information using a radar in wireless communication. Position information on the target can be estimated angle, distance and velocity. The velocity information can be estimated since the Doppler frequency is changed in the moving target. The signal incident on the receiving array antenna is multiplied by the delay time and the reference signal to represent the output signal. This output signal is estimated by applying FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) after calculating signal correlation through correlation integrator. Since the output signal must be calculated within the correlator, it should be processed with the Dwell time. The correlation signal of the correlation integrator outside this Dwell time is indicated by the velocity measurement error. The FFT is applied to the signal that has passed through the correlated integrator in order to estimate the distance of the signal. The Doppler resolution must be improved because the FFT estimates target information using the Doppler information. The Doppler resolution decreases with increasing the integration time. The velocity information estimation should have no spread of the velocity. As a result of the simulation, there was no spread of the target velocity in this study.

Portal blood flow was measured with pulsed doppler ultrasound in thirty normal dogs. In normal dogs, the average portal blood flow velocity was $17.03{\pm}1.75cm/sec$ and the average portal blood flow was $41.59{\pm}10.10ml/min/kg$. The incident angle between the doppler beam and the portal vein averaged $65^{\circ}$. The average portal vein sectional area was $0.41{\pm}0.14cm^2$. The Congestion index was $0.0245{\pm}0.0081cm{\cdot}sec$. Conclusively, the spectral doppler ultrasonography was quick, non-invasive and simple diagnostic method in circulatory disorders of liver.

A doppler log is the typical device which can measure the ship's speed over the ground directly, by means of doppler effect of the underwater ultrasonic wave, which involves the error due to the sea bottom inclination, the trim and the incorrect transducer installation etc. The present doppler log adopts a single transducer, faced in the direction of themain beam, and therefore it is unable to correct the beam direction to eliminate the above mentioned error. Moreover, the frequencyis also limitted in a comparatively high range for getting a sharp beam with single transducer, and the speed over the ground can not be detectable at the deep sea, for an instance, over 200 meters. This paper describes a theoretical consideration for the doppler log error and an analysis by a computer on the observed speed data by a full size model ship. The result is verified that the most of doppler log error is caused by the ultrasonic beam angle of transducer. To eliminate the doppler log error due to the incorrect transducer installation and also to sharpen the beam for lower frequency range to expand measurable sea depth, this paper proposes a method of controlling the directivity adopting a linear transducer array and of controlling the directivity by the control of exciting current, and investigates by the computer simulation and make experiment with magnetostrictive ferrite transducer of 28, 50 and 75KHz. The experimental results are shown well coincide with the measured ones, and they are revealed that in case where the transducer interval is greater than 1 wavelength, the effective control of the beam direction is hardly performed with keeping adequate beam width and side lobe level. It is concluded that 6-elements array with inter element space of a half wavelength can make comparatively sharp beam and low side lobe level. The results obtained here will contribute very much to the improvement of the performance of doppler log.

This paper describes a mathematical model and its utilization algorithm for calculating the accurate target position on the ellipsoidal earth surface which corresponds to a range-azimuth coordinates of unprocessed synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. A geometrical model which is a set of coordinate transformations is described. The side-looking directional angle (off-nadir angle) is determined in an iterative fashion by using the model and the accurate slant range which is calculated from the range sampling timing of the instrument. The algorithm can be applied not only for the geolocation of SAR images but also for the high quality SAR image generation by calculating accurate Doppler parameters.

In general, in order to operate an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) in an underwater environment, a navigation system such as a Doppler Log (DVL) using a Doppler phenomenon of ultrasonic waves is used for speed and direction estimation. However, most of the ultrasonic sensors in underwater is large for long-distance sensing and the cost is very high. In this study, not only canal neuromast on the fish's lateral lines but also superficial neuromast are studied on the simulation to obtain pressure values for each pressure sensor, and the obtained pressure data is supervised using spherical CNN. To this end, through supervised learning using pressure data obtained from a pressure sensor attached to an underwater vehicle, we can estimate the speed and angle of the underwater vehicle in a quasi-static underwater environment and propose a method for a non-ultrasonic based navigation system.

본 연구는 도플러 광 단층촬영법이 미세유동 및 미세구조를 동시에 측정하는 첨단 장비임을 보일뿐 아니라 기존의 도플러 광 단층촬영법의 한계를 극복한 새로운 방법을 제시하였다. 기존의 도플러 광단층촬영법은 샘플로 입사되는 광과 같은 방향의 속도성분만을 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 임의의 속도벡터의 세 성분을 동시에 측정할 수 있는 다관점 도플러 광 단층촬영법을 개발하였고 심전도 게이트를 사용하여 맥동혈류유동의 3 차원 공간 내에서 위상속도 벡터장을 측정하는 심전도 게이트 다관점 도플러 광 단층촬영법의 타당성 조사를 햄스터 모래주머니 모델을 사용하여 수행하였다. 이를 통해 측정 가능한 속도성분의 수를 증가할 뿐 아니라 프레임 레이트가 심박에 비해 상대적으로 느리기 때문에 발생하는 엘리아싱 문제를 해결하였다.

1985년 1월 28일부터 7월 20일까지 한국어업기술훈련소(Lat. 35$^{\circ}$05'04N, Long, 129$^{\circ}$02'13E)에서 NNSS로 연속관측하여 관측시간, 위성별, 앙각, 통과방향, doppler count 수, 안테나의 높이 등이 NNSS위치의 정도에 미치는 영향을 분석.검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 위성항법에서 사용하고 있는 WGS-72 측지계를 Bessel측지계로 변환하여 계산하면, 편위오차를 평균 0.21마일 정도로 줄일 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 2. 산정의 앙각이 높을 때 측위정도가 높았고, 위성의 앙각이 20~70도 범위에서 더욱 높았다. 3. Doppller count 수가 21번 이상일 때 측위거리의 오차도 커지는 경향을 나타내었으며, 위성의 종류에 다른 측위오차의 변동은 거의 없었다.

레이다 데이터로부터 ISAR(Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar) 영상을 생성 할 때 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 것이 FFT 알고리즘이다. FFT 알고리즘을 넓은 방위각 데이터에 적용할 때는 MTRC(Moving Through Resolution Cell) 현상으로 영상의 번짐이 발생하는데 이를 보정하기 위하여 polar formatting 기법을 적용한다. 그러나 polar formatting도 적용할 수 있는 각도의 한계가 존재하며 만약 지나치게 넓을 경우 polar formatting을 적용하여도 원하는 영상을 얻을 수 없게 된다. 이 논문에서는 ISAR 영상 생성시 내삽법을 사용하는 polar formatting기법과 polar formatting의 단점인 내삽법을 사용하지 않는 CDT(Coherent Doppler Tomography) 기법을 비교하여 각각의 장단점을 분석하였다.

인공위성 Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR)는 물리해양학적 현상을 정량적으로 관측하는데 가장 유용한 도구 중의 하나이다. SAR의 도플러 편이(Doppler shift) 현상은 센서와 해양표면 유체와의 상대적인 움직임 차이로 인해 발생될 수 있다. 따라서, 단 채널 SAR 원시자료에 기록된 도플러 정보는 해양의 유체 이동속도를 추정하는데 유용하다. 유체의 이동속도는 측정된 도플러 중심주파수(estimated Doppler centroid)와 예측된 도플러 중심주파수(predicted Doppler centroid) 사이의 차이를 측정함으로써 계산될 수 있다. 예측된 도플러 중심주파수는 표적이 움직이지 않는다고 가정했을 때의 중심주파수로서 위성의 궤도, 시선 각, 자세 등과 같은 기하모델을 통해 계산될 수 있고, 측정된 도플러 중심주파수는 실제 SAR 촬영시 표적의 움직임에 해당하는 도플러 중심주파수로서 원시자료에 기록된 정보를 이용하고 평균상관계수법(Average Cross Correlation Coefficient; ACCC)을 적용하여 추출될 수 있다. 이렇게 추출된 도플러 속도에서 브래그 공명을 일으키는 표면 장력파의 위상속도를 제거하여 좀더 정밀한 표층 해류의 속도를 추출하였다. 이러한 기법들을 동해를 촬영한 Envisat ASAR 원시자료에 적용하였으며, 추출된 해류속도를 HF-radar에서 관측한 해류속도와 비교하였다.
