  • A new target adaptive guidance (TAG) algorithm is proposed to engage the aim point formed by adding a bias to the information from an infrared (IR) seeker for improving passive homing guidance effectiveness. The TAG algorithm utilizes an observability enhancing mid-course guidance algorithm to obtain convergent estimates of state variables involved particularly in range channel otherwise unavailable from passive sensors. Simulation results indicate that the TAG algorithm provides improved terminal effectiveness without computational complexities.

  • In this paper, we propose an autonomous Indoor lighting control system in which indoor lighting devices are autonomously controlled such that electricity bills are minimized in our daily life. Our focus is to utilize Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors to detect the presence of human being indoor and automatically to control indoor lighting electric devices. A control algorithm is also devised to control the whole system. We justify the proposed system by demonstrating specific applications in our everyday life. Cost survey and experimental results also demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed system in real life.

  • Because of directly receiving the thing in which a microwave is reflected and comparing the frequency, the microwave sensor with doppler effect completely overcomes the problem of the passive infrared sensor. The microwave sensor with doppler effect well operates about a temperature, the dust, and the peripheral noise because of being dull in the most of ambient conditions. The system developed in this research is the electricity saving detection sensor which it senses the real time action of a man as the microwave sensor and automatically turns on the electric lamp and turns off, minimizes the electrical energy consumption. Since the microwave sensor is not influenced in the light, the dust, and the natural element like the ambient temperature, the effectiveness is considered to be superior to the passive infrared sensor being used currently. There was the energy reduction effect more than about 60% in the performed example which established this system. When this was compared with the construction cost, the cost of establishing payback period was about 1-1.5 year. The microwave sensor with doppler effect developed from this research result is convinced in the future to do enough for the electric energy saving.

  • We conducted thermal analyses and cooling tests of the space observation camera (SOC) of the multi-purpose infrared imaging system (MIRIS) to verify passive cooling. The thermal analyses were conducted with NX 7.0 TMG for two cases of attitude of the MIRIS: for the worst hot case and normal case. Through the thermal analyses of the flight model, it was found that even in the worst case the telescope could be cooled to less than $206^{\circ}K$. This is similar to the results of the passive cooling test (${\sim}200.2^{\circ}K$). For the normal attitude case of the analysis, on the other hand, the SOC telescope was cooled to about $160^{\circ}K$ in 10 days. Based on the results of these analyses and the test, it was determined that the telescope of the MIRIS SOC could be successfully cooled to below $200^{\circ}K$ with passive cooling. The SOC is, therefore, expected to have optimal performance under cooled conditions in orbit.

  • 0-3 PbTiO$_3$/P(VDF/TrFE) nanocomposite thin films for passive pyroelectric infrared sensors were fabricated by a two-step spin coating technique. 65wt% VDF and 35 wt% TrFE was formed into a P(VDF/TrFE) powder. Nano size PbTiO$_3$ powder was used. 0-3 connectivity of PbTiO$_3$/P(VDF/TrFE) composite film was successfully achieved and observed using SEM photography. The dielectric constant and pyroelectric coefficient were measured and compared with P(VDF/TrFE). A very low dielectric constant (13.48 at 1KHz and sufficiently high pyroelectric coefficient (3.101 nC/$\textrm{cm}^2$ㆍk at 5$0^{\circ}C$) were measured. This nanocomposite can be used for a new pyroelectric infrared sensor to achieve better performance.

  • A thick 25 ${\mu}m$ thickness poled P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor has been fabricated and then thin 1.6 ${\mu}m$ thickness P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor has been fabricated also. These thick and thin P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor was mounted in TO-5 housing to detect infrared light of 5.5 ~ 14 ${\mu}m$ wavelength for human body detecting with each other. The noise output voltage of the thick P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor were 380 mV and NEP(noise equivalent power) is $3.95{\times}10^{-7}$ W which is the similar value with the commercial pyroelectric infrared ray sensor using ceramic materials as a sensing material. The NEP and specific detectivity $D^*$ of the thin P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor were $2.13{\times}10^{-8}$ W and $9.37{\times}106$ cm/W under emission energy of 13 ${\mu}W/cm^2$ respectively. These result caused by lower thermal diffusion coefficient of a thin 1.6 ${\mu}m$ thickness PVDF/TrFE film than the thick 25 ${\mu}m$ thickness poled P(VDF/TrFE) film pyroelectric infrared ray sensor.

  • This paper reviews the legacy of the SPCIA Coronagraph Instrument (SCI) of which the primary scientific objective is the characterization of Jovian exoplanets by coronagraphic spectroscopy in the infrared. Studies on binary shaped pupil mask coronagraphs are described. Cryogenic active optics is discussed as another key technology. Then approaches to observing habitable zones in exoplanetary systems with a passively-cooled space infrared telescope are discussed. The SCI was dropped in a drastic change of the SPICA mission. However, its legacy is useful for space-borne infrared telescopes dedicated for use in exoplanetary science in the future, especially for studies of biomarkers.

  • In this paper, we propose a method to recognize the moving direction in the indoor environment by using the sensing system equipped with passive infrared (PIR) sensors and a deep learning algorithm. A PIR sensor generates a signal that can be distinguished according to the direction of movement of the user. A sensing system with four PIR sensors deployed by $45^{\circ}$ increments is developed and installed in the ceiling of the room. The PIR sensor signals from 6 users with 10-time experiments for 8 directions were collected. We extracted the raw data sets and performed experiments varying the number of sensors fed into the deep learning algorithm. The proposed sensing system using deep learning algorithm can recognize the users' moving direction by 99.2 %. In addition, with only one PIR senor, the recognition accuracy reaches 98.4%.

  • The tree is regarded as an sustainable architectural outdoor design element which reduce urban heat island effect by its solar shading and evapotranspiration. This study carried out field observations of measuring thermal environment of selected tree and its ambience to determine passive cooling effects. Results from the field observations are as below; Tree-shading effect to the thermal environment can not be properly evaluated by merely measuring air temperature differences between tree-shaded space and unshaded space for the maximum temperature difference is less than $1.5^{\circ}C$. The differences of longwave radiation and shortwave radiation between tree-shaded space and unshaded space are measured. Shortwave radiation is considered as a main thermal comfort determining factor for the difference of the shortwave radiation is much bigger than that of longwave radiation. By thermal infrared image analysis, the surface temperature of the tree under strong solar radiation is measured same as ambient air temperature. By which the evapotranspiration is considered to retard tree surface temperature raising effectively.
