본 논문은 직접확산시간도약 초광대역 (DS-TH UWB) 시스템에 관하여 전력 스펙트럼 특성을 연구하였다. DS-TH UWB 시스템은 정보 신호를 의사잡음 부호와 연산하여 불규칙한 패턴의 펄스열로 구성하고 이를 펄스열의 칩으로 묶어 복수개의 그룹으로 만들었으며 각 그룹을 특정 값으로 매핑하게 한다. 이 특정 값과 매핑 장치 내의 Lookup Table로부터 타이밍 정보를 비교하여 (+)/(-) 펄스를 프레임 내에 위치시키게 된다. 결과적으로 기존의 시스템에서 발생하는 에너지 스파크 현상을 매우 효과적으로 억압할 수 있었으며, 본 논문에서 제안하는 DS-TH UWB 시스템은 고속의 시간도약 부호를 이용하지 않고서도 평활한 전력 스펙트럼 특성을 형성할 수 있었다.

The quality of steel plate products is determined by the number of defects and the process problems are estimated by shapes of defects. Therefore pinholes defects of cold rolled steel have to be controlled. In order to improve productivity and quality of products, within each production process, the product is inspected by an adequate inspection system individually in the lines of steelworks. Among a number of inspection systems, we focus on the pinholes detection system. In this paper, we propose an embedded system using FPGA which can detect pinholes defects. The proposed system is smaller and more flexible than a traditional system based on expensive frame grabbers and PC. In order to detect consecutive defects, FPGAs acquire two dimensional image and process the image in real time by using correlation of lines. The proposed pinholes detection algorithm decreases arithmetic operations of image processing and also we designed the hardware to shorten the data path between logics due to decreasing propagation delay. The experimental results show that the proposed embedded system detects the reliable number of pinholes in real time.

우주물체 전자광학 감시체계(OWL: Optical Wide-field Patrol)는 광학망원경을 통해 우주물체를 검출하는 시스템이다. 검출기 시스템의 하드웨어 구성은 Chopper, Filter Wheel, De-Rotator로 구성된 Wheel station과 CCD 카메라로 구성된다. Chopper는 CCD 영상에서 위성의 궤적을 자르는 역할을 하고 Filter Wheel은 관측대상의 파장 영역대를 선택하는 기능을 한다. 영상획득용 CCD카메라는 천문관측용 Full Frame 방식의 카메라를 사용하고 있으며 모델명 PL16803의 FLI 제품을 사용한다. 검출기시스템은 시스템 부팅 후 "Health check"를 통하여 검출기시스템의 상태를 점검하고 "과거이력관리" 및 "과거미처리 영상관리"를 점검하여 부팅 이전에 비상사태 등으로 인해, 비정상적으로 종료되어 처리되지 못한 명령이나 영상자료를 처리한다. 그리고 이에 대한 보고서를 기록하여 보관한다. 검출기시스템은 관측명령서(OCF: Observation Command File)를 받게 되면 자동 관측을 수행하며, 자동 관측 전에 "OCF 동기화"를 통하여 최신의 명령을 유지한다. 자동 관측이 종료된 후에는 획득한 영상을 처리하는 과정을 진행한다. 영상자료 처리과정 중에는 위성의 궤적을 "Line-Detection"을 통해 검출하고 World Coordinate System(WCS)를 계산 한 후, 이미지 상의 특정 위성 궤적의 좌표를 RA, DEC으로 표현되는 위치정보를 획득하도록 프로그램되어 있다. 이 외에도 운용 소프트웨어에는 자동 초점기능을 수행하는 기능도 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 검출기 부분에 대한 설계 및 시험의 과정을 기술하였다.

Prior to destructive testing, diagnostic tests were performed in eight high voltage motors. Diagnostic tests included polarization index, ac current, dissipation factor($tan{\delta}$) and partial discharge magnitude. The rewind of motor stator insulation at rated voltage is assessed by the results of these tests. After completing the diagnostic tests, the stator windings of motors were subjected to gradually increasing ac voltage, until the insulation punctured. No. 1 motor failed near rated voltage of 12.96 kV. The breakdown voltage of No. 4 motor was 6.99 kV which is lower that expected for good quality coils in 6.6 kV class motors. The failure was located in a line-end coil at the exit from the core slot. These two motors began operation in 1994. While testing No. 7 motor, flashover occurred between the stator winding and the stator frame at 15 kV. The relationship between the diagnostic test and the drop in insulation breakdown voltage was analyzed.

Purple acid phosphatase is important for phosphorus remobilization in plants, but its role in plant adaptation to low phosphorus availability is not known. The cDNA encoding O. sativa purple acid phosphatase (OsPAP1) has 1008 bp with an open reading frame of 335 amino acid residues. The amino acid sequence of OsPAP1 cDNA shows of 50-51% identity with other plant purple acid phosphatases. OsPAP1 was expressed in rice plants and in cell cultures in the absence of phosphate ($P_i$). The expression was organ-specific with the strongest expression in $P_i$-deprived roots. Functional expression of the OsPAP1 gene in the transgenic Arabidopsis line was confirmed by northern and western blot analysis. OsPAP1 overexpression lines had higher phosphatase activity than wild-type. Overexpression of OsPAP1 in Arabidopsis plants resulted in increased Pi accumulation under Pi sufficient condition. These results show that the OsPAP1 gene represents more efficient $P_i$ uptake and can be used to develop new transgenic dicotyledonous plants.

The coordination control of multiple Underactuated Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) moving in three dimensional space is investigated in this paper. The coordinated path following control task is decomposed into two sub tasks, that is, path following control and coordination control. In the spatial curve path following control task, path following error dynamics is build in the Serret-Frenet coordinate frame. The virtual reference object can be chosen freely on the desired spatial path. Considering the speed of the UUV, the line-of-sight navigation is introduced to help the path following errors quickly converge to zero. In the coordination control sub task, the communication topology of multiple UUVs is described by the graph theory. The speed of each UUV is adjusted to achieve the coordination. The path following system and the coordination control system are viewed as the feedback connection system. Input-to-state stable of the coordinated path following system can be proved by small gain theorem. The simulation experiments can further demonstrate the good performance of the control method.

The paper presents an effective method to detect fire in video surveillance and monitoring system. The main contribution of this work is that we successfully use the Hidden Markov Models in the process of detecting the fire with a few preprocessing steps. First, the moving pixels detected from image difference, the color values obtained from the fire flames, and their pixels clustering are applied to obtain the image regions labeled as fire candidates; secondly, utilizing massive training data, including fire videos and non-fire videos, creates the Hidden Markov Models of fire and non-fire, which are used to make the final decision that whether the frame of the real-time video has fire or not in both temporal and spatial analysis. Experimental results demonstrate that it is not only robust but also has a very low false alarm rate, furthermore, on the ground that the HMM training which takes up the most time of our whole procedure is off-line calculated, the real-time detection and alarm can be well implemented when compared with the other existing methods.

Pounding happens when contiguous structures with differing heights vibrate out of line caused by a seismic activity. The situation is aggravated due to the insufficient separation gap between the structures which can lead to the crashing of the buildings or total collapse of an edifice. Countries around the world have compiled building standards to address the pounding issue. One of the strategies recommended is the introduction of the separation gap between structures. AS1170.4-2007 is an Australian standard that requires 1% of the building height as a minimum separation gap between buildings to preclude pounding. This article presents experimental and numerical tests to determine the adequacy of this specification to prevent the occurrence of seismic pounding between steel frame structures under near-field and far-field earthquakes. The results indicated that the recommended minimum separation gap based on the Australian Standard is inaccurate if low-rise structure in a coupled case is utilised under both near and far field earthquakes. The standard is adequate if a tall building is involved but only when a far-field earthquake happens. The research likewise presents results derived by using the ABS and SRSS methods.

In this study, we apply a deep learning model to denoising solar magnetograms. For this, we design a model based on conditional generative adversarial network, which is one of the deep learning algorithms, for the image-to-image translation from a single magnetogram to a denoised magnetogram. For the single magnetogram, we use SDO/HMI line-of-sight magnetograms at the center of solar disk. For the denoised magnetogram, we make 21-frame-stacked magnetograms at the center of solar disk considering solar rotation. We train a model using 7004 paris of the single and denoised magnetograms from 2013 January to 2013 October and test the model using 1432 pairs from 2013 November to 2013 December. Our results from this study are as follows. First, our model successfully denoise SDO/HMI magnetograms and the denoised magnetograms from our model are similar to the stacked magnetograms. Second, the average pixel-to-pixel correlation coefficient value between denoised magnetograms from our model and stacked magnetogrmas is larger than 0.93. Third, the average noise level of denoised magnetograms from our model is greatly reduced from 10.29 G to 3.89 G, and it is consistent with or smaller than that of stacked magnetograms 4.11 G. Our results can be applied to many scientific field in which the integration of many frames are used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio.

양성자선을 이용한 치료는 기존의 광자를 이용하였을 때 보다 병소 주위 정상 조직에 영향을 거의 주지 않고 암세포를 치료할 수 있는 정밀한 방사선 치료법이다. 양성자선 조사 시 인체 내 조직과의 상호작용으로 양전자 방출 핵종이 발생하며 양전자 방출 단층촬영은 이러한 특성을 이용하여 양성자 치료 후 그 효과를 확인하는데 이용된다. 그러나 이 때 발생하는 소멸복사선은 짧은 반감기로 인하여 영상 획득 시간에 어려움이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 양성자선 조사 후 영상 획득 시간에 따른 영상의 차이를 비교하여 그 효율성을 알아보고자 한다. 증류수를 가득 채운 2001 IEC body 모형에 37, 28, 22 mm 구체를 삽입하고 구체의 중심에 양성자선이 조사되도록 CT로 치료 계획을 수립하였다. 양성자선은 wobbling technique, gantry $0^{\circ}$, 100 MU, 구체 크기별로 범위는 각각 16.4, 14.7, 9.3 cm로 조사하였다. 조사를 마친 모형은 약 5분의 거리를 이동하여 PET/CT로 1 분씩 50 개의 영상을 획득하여 1에서 10. 11에서 21, 21에서 30, 31에서 40, 41에서 50으로 10개씩 영상을 합산하여 재구성 하였다. 합산된 영상에서 열소 부위와 배후 방사능에 ROI를 그린 후 방사능 농도 값을 산출하고 대조도 잡음비를 계산하여 영상의 질을 평가하였다. 전체 영상의 CNR은 37 mm 구체에서 0.43, 0.42, 0.40, 0.31, 0.21로 나타났으며, 28 mm 구체는 0.36, 0.32, 0.27, 0.19, 0.09로 측정되었다. 22 mm의 구체는 0.25, 0.25, 0.19, 0.11, 0.08로 측정되었다. CNR은 37 mm 구체에서는 30분 이후에 빠르게 감소하였고, 28 mm와 22 mm 에서는 20분 이후에 급격히 감소하였다. 치료 효과 확인을 위한 PET 촬영에서 양성자선 조사 후 데이터의 획득 시점과 총 획득 시간이 매우 중요하다. 실험 결과에서 병소의 크기가 22 mm 이상이라고 가정한다면 영상 획득은 조사 후 25분 내에 완료될 수 있도록 진행하는 것이 바람직하다. 종양의 크기가 작거나 저 선량이 조사될 경우에는 보다 긴 영상 획득 시간을 적용한다면 도움을 될 것으로 사료된다.
