본 논문에서는 채널의 진폭 특성만을 고려한 실내 무선 페이딩 환경에서 PPM 변조된 UWB 통신 시스템의 채널 성능을 분석하였다. 페이딩 채널은 기존에 발표되었던 UWB 전파 실험을 통한 데이터를 바탕으로 Nakagami-m분포 모델을 이용하여 페이딩 지수 m에 따른 다양한 채널 환경을 고려하였다. 또한, 채널 성능을 평가하기 위해 신호대 잡음비, 페이딩 지수 m, 그리고 시스템 성능 파라미터인 펄스반복개수(Ns)를 이용하여 다양한 페이딩 환경에서의 UWB 시스템 성능을 분석하였다.

UWB 시스템은 매우 넓은 주파수 대역에 걸쳐 스펙트럼이 발생하기 때문에 기존에 공존하는 협대역 시스템의 신호로부터 간섭의 영향을 받게 된다. 이는 협대역 신호가 UWB 신호 대역폭에 유입되는 부분 대역 간섭으로 고려 할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 협대역 간섭 모델을 대역 점유율에 따른 부분대역 간섭으로 모델링 하였으며, 협대역 간섭 점유율에 따른 TH binary PPM UWB 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다. 또한 강력한 오류 정정능력을 갖는 Turbo code를 사용함으로써 성능 개선 정도를 평가하였다.

염소가스의 활성탄 흡착성능을 흡착평형과 flow system 두 단계의 흡착실험을 통하여 측정하였다. 활성탄은 surface area와 pore size distribution이 구별되는 세가지 이상의 시료를 선정하였고 활성탄의 표면특성에 따른 염소가스의 흡착관계를 검토하였다. Flow system에서는 염소가스를 500ppm의 농도(v/v in helium) 를 가지는 염소가스를 선택하였고 GC로 흡착경향을 분석하였다. 주어진 흡착탑(long bed)에서 흡착용량의 증가변화에 대한 흡착속도의 감소변화의 추이를 관찰하였으며 이로부터 염소가스 단일성분의 활성탄 흡착탑에 대한 흡착모델의 설계가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common cause of chronic liver diseases. This study was to characterize early hepatic lipid changes in fatty liver rat model by in vivo short-echo time(TE) $^1H$-MRS(Proton - Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy). Each the examinations were measured from liver parenchyma in rats at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks followed by high fat diet, respectively. Significant increase in lipid signals. 0.9, 1.3, 2.3, 2.8, and 5.3 ppm was found in animals with 2 weeks(p<0.01). Therefore, $^1H$-MRS is useful in detecting and characterizing various hepatic lipid alterations as early as 2 weeks for the start high fat diet.

This study was designed to investigate the antioxidant effects of dietary xanthophylls supplementation in broiler breast and thigh meat homogenates during incubation at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 0, 2, 4, 8, 16 hours respectively. Experimental treatments were divided into control, lutein, canthaxanthin, astaxanthin and capxanthin fed meats. The supplementation levels of to chicks were adjusted to 30 ppm in feeds. The 30 ${\mu}$M FeCl$_3$ and 100 ${\mu}$M ascorbic acid were added to meat homogenates in order to catalyze lipid oxidation. In breast meat homogenates, the TBARS(O.D) of all treatments at 2 hour was significantly(p〈0.05) increase. In thigh meat homogenates, the highest TBARS(O.D) value of all treatments appeared at 16 hour incubation and TBARS(O.D) value of all treatments was significantly(p〈0.05) lower than that control during incubation time. The TBARS(O.D) of lutein treatment in breast meat homogenate at 8 hour and 16 hour were significantly(p〈0.05) lower than those of treatments. Also, astaxanthin treated in thigh meat homogenate of the 2 hour and 4 hour and lutein treatment in thigh meat homogenate at 8 hour and 16 hour were significantly(p〈0.05) lower than other treatments. In conclusion, dietary xanthophyll treatments in breast and thigh meat homogenates showed more antioxidant effect to lipid oxidation than control. Especially, lipid oxidation inhibited significantly in lutein fed breast meat, and lutein and astaxanthin fed thigh meat homogenates.

In this study, adsorption properties of oxidized NO by plasma using aminated polyolefin-g-GMA hybrid anion exchange fibers were investigated. The maximum conversion of $NO_2$ by plasma was 49% at the conditions of 200 ppm NO, 10% $O_2$ and 30 L/min of flow rate. The adsorption content for N02 of hybrid anion exchange fibers increased with increasing the swelling ratio and the highest value was 1.5 g $H_2O/g$ IEF. The adsorption of $NO_2$ by hybrid anion exchange fibers were very fast until 10 min and reached its maximum value of 80% at 120 min. Ion exchange capacity of hybrid anion exchange fibers increased with increasing the swelling ratio and it showed the highest 0.6 mmol/g IEF values at L/D=5. The adsorption isotherm model for hybrid anion exchange fibers were closer to Freundlich than Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. It was shown that adsorption of the multi-molecular layer was dominant.

A chemical reactor network (CRN) was developed for a lean premixed gas turbine combustor to predict the emission of pollutants such as NOx and CO. In this study, the predictions of NOx and CO emissions from lean premixed methane-air combustion in the gas turbine were carried out using CHEMKIN and a GRI 3.0 methane-air combustion mechanism, which includes the four NO formation mechanisms for various load conditions. The calculated results were compared with experimental data obtained from a modified test combustor to validate the model. The contributions of the four NO pathways were investigated for various load conditions. The effects of nonuniformity of the mass flux and of the equivalence ratio of the injector on the NOx formation were investigated, and a method of reducing the pollutant formation was suggested for the development of a sub-10 ppm gas turbine combustor.

We analyze the effects of CO poisoning and air bleeding on the performance of a PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cell stack fabricated using commercial MEA (membrane electrode assembly). Dynamic response data from the experiments on the performance of a stack are identified by obtaining steady-state gains and time-constants of the first-order system model expressed as a first-order differential equation. It is found that the cell voltage of the stack decreases by 1.3-1.6 mV as the CO concentration rises by 1 ppm. The time elapsed to reach a new steady state after a change in the CO concentration is shortened as the magnitude of the change in the CO concentration increases. In general, the steady-state gain becomes bigger and the time-constant gets smaller with increasing the air concentration (air-bleeding level) in the reformate gas to restore the cell voltage. However, it is possible to recover 87%-96% of the original cell voltages, which are measured with free of CO, within 1-30 min by introducing the bleed air as much as 1% of the reformate gas into the stack.

This study identifies possible determinants that may have influences on the switching behavior from the current payment system of credit or check cards to the easy payment service based on push-pulling-mooring model. And this research empirically tests how those determinants affect switching intention to the easy payment service. The moderating effect of policy expectation is also taken into account. The findings show switching intention to the easy payment service is influenced by the followings: dissatisfaction with the current payment system as a pushing factor, perceived easy of use and trust in easy payment service as pulling factors, and affective/cognitive inertia and unfavorable subjective norm as mooring factors. The results also show that moderating effect of policy expectation exists in the relationship between perceived ubiquitousness and switching intention.

This study examined the effects of excess intake of calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) supplement on bone loss, nephrocalcinosis and renal function in osteoporotic model rats. Seven-week-old female rats were first fed a Ca-deficient diet for four weeks after ovariectomy operation, and then one of nine experimental diets for additional eight weeks, containing three levels of Ca, normal (0.5%) or high (1.5%) or excess (2.5%) and three levels of Fe, normal (35ppm) or high (210ppm) or excess (350ppm). The osteoporotic model rats showed a remarkable increase in body weight, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and decrease in breaking force, Ca, P, Mg contents of femur. Serum Ca concentration was not significantly affected by dietary Ca and Fe levles. Liver Ca content increased in rats fed a high-and excess-Ca diet. Kidney Ca content and microscopic Ca deposition remarkably increased in osteoporotic model rats compared to control group, and showed a tendency to decrease in rats fed a excess-Ca diet. Breaking force of femur increased with increasing dietary Ca levels, but Ca, P contents of femur and serum ALP were not significantly affected by dietary Ca and Fe levels. Serum total protein decreased in rats fed a excess-Ca diet, BUN increased in rats fed a excess-Ca diet, while serum uric acid and creatinine were not significantly affected by dietary Ca levels. Urinary creatinine, GFR increased in rats fed a high-and excess-Ca, diet, and GFR was highest in rats fed a excess-Ca/excess-Fe diet. These results suggest that excess intake of Ca may increase breaking force of femur, but not increase mineral contents of femur, and decrease kidney function. Furthermore, excess intake of Fe and Ca concurrently may aggravate kidney function leading to potential health problems in ovariectomized osteoporotic model rats.
