The VAL 208 in Uijeongbu Light Rail system is a light railway vehicle which could be operated in driverless supported by Siemens. It is a Rubber Wheel Type AGT (Automatic Guideway Transit). It will be operated in two car train about 11km of Uijeongbu line. In this paper, the technical overview of the ATC system and the interface between the system and the way side control equipments are presented. It includes the main functions of OBCU(On Board control Unit) and its information sharing method with WCU(Way side control Unit). The testing procedure of OBCU is also discussed.

The Mission Analysis and Planning System (MAPS) has been developed for a low earth orbiting remote sensing satellite, Korea Multipurpose Satellite-I (KOMPSAT-I), to monitor and control the orbit and the attitude as well as to generate mission timelines and command plans. The MAPS has been designed using a top-down approach and modular programming method to ensure flexibility in modification and expansion of the system. Furthermore, a graphical user interface has been adopted to ensure friendliness. Design, Implementation, and testing of the KOMPSAT is discussed in this paper.

DSP chip parameters of a digital hearing aid (HA) should be optimally selected or fitted for hearing impaired persons. The more precise parameter fitting guarantees the better compensation of the hearing loss (HL). Digital HAs adopt DSP chips for more precise fitting of various HL threshold curve patterns. A specific DSP chip such as Gennum GB3211 was designed and manufactured in order to match up to about 4.7 billion different possible HL cases with combination of 7 limited parameters. This paper deals with a digital HA fitting program which is developed for optimal fitting of GB3211 DSP chip parameters. The fitting program has completed feature from audiogram input to DSP chip interface. The compensation effects of the microphone and the receiver are also included. The paper shows some application examples.

We have developed a method that enables a user to better understand and enjoy the contents of 3D digital archives, thereby enhancing the user's experience. The system's interactive interface, built using virtual reality technology, enables the user to "walk through" the archives, comparing two or the same content at different points in time. For example, a user can compare the proposed design for a building with the actual building and can compare the states of restoration of a cultural heritage site over time. This ability to perform multilateral comparisons enables the user to clarify the relationship between contents, the influence of one content on another, and the causal relationship between contents. Testing of a prototype system for a 3D digital archive of cultural heritage sites showed that it worked smoothly and that the users could easily operate the navigation system.

High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) power cables are capable of transmitting bulk power without any loss compared to conventional copper cables. The major challenge in the design of such HTS cables is the high stresses (electro-thermal/electro-mechanical) developed at high voltages, high currents and cryogenic temperatures. The safe and reliable operation of HTS cables involves lots of instrumentation for monitoring, measurement, control and safe operation. In principle, a four probe method for resistance (RTD PT-100) is used for temperature measurements at various locations of HTS cable. The number of connecting leads required for this is four times that of the number of sensors. The present paper discusses a novel way of connecting 128 RTD sensors with the help of only 14 leads using a cold electronics based multiplexer board. LabVIEW 11.0 software was used for interfacing and displaying the readings of all the sensors on computer screen.

Recently, application of friction welded SUH35/SUH3 is increasing in the manufacturing process of automotive engine valves For securing its reliability and a reasonable strength evaluation method, it is necessary to assess stress singularity under the residual stress condition on the friction welded interface between dissimilar materials. In this paper, strength evaluation method of friction welded materials was investigated by boundary element method and static tensile testing. An advanced method of quantitative strength evaluation for SUH35/SUH3 friction welded material is to be suggested by establishing fracture criterion by using stress singularity factors.

This paper deals with the design and analysis of automatic virus infection machine, which can be used in blood testing at veterinary hospital. It consists of the mechanical positioning parts and electrical control parts. Two of driving motor and ball screws are used to move the liquid container into the test position and mix the blood on litmus paper. In addition, a thermal controller is installed to keep the container temperature on constant level. The user interface using with a LCD and some keys are supplied with a 8-bit single chip controller. All of the designs issue related with the mechanism and controllers are discussed in detail. Finally the proposed machine is tested in real experiment with the formal processing to judge the virus infection, and also the usefulness of designed algorithm is verified through the experiments.

In this paper, we implemented a vocabulary-independent speech recognizer using the TMS320VC33 DSP. For this implementation, we had developed very small-sized recognition engine based on diphone sub-word unit, which is especially suited for embedded applications where the system resources are severely limited. The recognition accuracy of the developed recognizer with 1 mixture per state and 4 states per diphone is 94.5% when tested on frequently-used 2000 words set. The design of the hardware was focused on minimal use of parts, which results in reduced material cost. The finally developed hardware only includes a DSP, 512 Kword flash ROM and a voice codec. In porting the recognition engine to the DSP, we introduced several methods of using data and program memory efficiently and developed the versatile software protocol for host interface. Finally, we also made an evaluation board for testing the developed hardware recognition module.

This article has been investigated the use of FFT for adhesive joints analysis between metal sheets. The method is based on the measurement of the reflection wave at the metal/adhesive interface. After describing briefly the physical aspects of the phenomenon, an index is defined to detect defective zone of the joint(both for the lack of adhesive and for insufficient adhesion): the influence of the experimental variables(variable stress...) on the measurement is discussed. By means of a control experiment it is shown that stress variation in adhesive joints are separate to be distinguished. In this paper, Nondestructive evaluation in adhesive joints are evaluated together with ultrasonic testing and finite element analysis.

In this paper, we studied for the measurement system for on-line testing and evaluation of tilting train express(TTX). The measurement system is installed in each train for the performance measurement during the test run. It is composed of software part, hardware part and can measure various signals such as velocity, voltage, temperature. The software controls the hardware of the measurement system, performs the analysis and calculation of measurement data and acts as interface between users and the system hardware. The hardware is consisted of 7 DAMs(Data Acquisition Modules) and 6 monitoring modules.
