For safety reason ATS(Automatic Train Stop) system is being used, which is a kind of communication system with a feedback amplifier and a transformer on the train and wayside coils. The coils are highly resonant LC circuits, also have very high Q(Quality) factors. The Q factors of wayside ATS coils are to be maintained high enough for the amplifier to operate reliably. In this paper a novel Q measurement system is proposed. The system measures the resonant frequency and the bandwidth of the ATS coils, by controlling the phase difference between the transformer and the coil using digital PLL(Phase Locked Loop). The overall configuration and algorithms of the proposed system and the digital PLL control schemes are presented in details. The experimental waveforms are shown to verify the system performances.

In the study, in order to develop low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric actuator, PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics were fabricated using $Na_2CO_3,\;Li_2CO_3$ as sintering aids and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated according to the variations of $MnO_2$ as additives and sintering aids. At the sintering temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ and 0.1wt% $MnO_2$ as sintering aids, density, electromechanical coupling factor$(k_p)$, mechanical quality factor$(Q_m)$, piezoelectric constant$(d_{33})$, and dielectric constant $({\varepsilon}_r)$ showed the optimum value of $7.87[g/cm^3]$, 0.61, 1131, 1127 and 376, respectively, for multilayer piezoelectric actuator application.

Solid solution ceramics having various ratios between xPb( $Y_{1}$2/T $a_{1}$2/) $O_3$ and Pb(Z $r_{0.52}$ $Ti_{0.48}$) $O_3$were synthesized by a conventional solid state reaction for well sintered specimens, dielectric and piezoelectric prperties were studied as a function of composition. The dielectric constant of PYT-PZT ceramics of 4 mol% PYT was 1,424 at room temperature. The maximum value of electromechanical couping facotr $k_{p}$ of 51% $k_{t}$ of 30% were obtained at the composition of 4 mol% PYT, howerver mechanical quality factor( $Q_{m}$) had a minimum value of 69 at 4 mol% PYT. Also the maximum value of piezoelectric constant of $D_{33}$(310[pC/N]) and $d_{31}$(-131[pC/N]) were obtained at the composition of 4 mol% PYT content.ntent.t.t.t.

Quality factors of emulsified ginseng drink were determined during storage at various temperatures, and its shelf-life was predicted based on changes in emulsion stability, acidify, viscosity, and yellowness. Viscosity was highly dependent on storage temperature. Emulsion stability changed rapidly during early storage period (1st step), then slowly thereafter (2nd step). $Q_{10}$ values of emulsion stability were 2.50 and 1.38 for 1st and 2nd steps, respectively. Viscosity, acidity, and yellowness showed $Q_{10}$ values of 3.45, 1.77, and 1.99, respectively. Although $Q_{10}$ value of 2 has been generally used to predict shelf stability of food materials, our results suggest adopting same $Q_{10}$ value to predict shelf stability of emulsified ginseng drink is not appropriate.

Dielectric and Piezoelectric properties of complex perovskite 0.92Pb($Zr_{1/2}Ti_{1/2})O_{3}-(0.08-x)Pb(Cu_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_{3}-xPb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_{3}(0{\leq}x{\leq}0.080$) (PZT-PCN-PMN) system were investigated as a function of PMN content. With the increase of PMN content of the sintered specimens, tetragonal phase was coexisted with rhombohedral phase, the dielectric constant was decreased, mechanical quality factor ($Q_{m}$) was inceased, and optimal sintering temperature was increased up to 1050$^{\circ}C$. For the composition of x = 0.064 sintered at 1050$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, 1939 of maximum mechanical quality factor ($Q_{m}$), 57$\%$ of electromechanical coupling factor ($k_{p}$), and 1100$^{\circ}C$ of dielectric constant, 0.37$\% $ of dielectric loss (tan $\delta$) were obtained.

$Sr_{l}$ $\pm$x/$Bi_{2}$ $\pm$y/$Ta_2$ $O_{9}$ and $Sr_{l}$ $\pm$$Bi_{x}$ $2\pm$y$Nb_2$$O_{9}$ ceramics were prepared by a solid state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that single-phase of Bi-layered perovskite was obtained. According to Sr/Bi content ratio, Curie temperature( $T_{c}$), electromechanical factor($K_{p}$ ) and mechanical quality factor($Q_{m}$ ) were measured. The Curie temperature of SBN(SBT) rose from $414^{\circ}C$(314$^{\circ}C$) to $494^{\circ}C$(426$^{\circ}C$) when Sr/Bi content ratio was increased. In the case of Sr/Bi content ratio = 0.55/2.3, the maximum value of the mechanical quality factor $Q_{m}$ of SBT and SBN were obtained 3320 and 1010, respectively.

In this paper, we investigated the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Pb(Sb, Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$ ceramic(PSN) for piezoelectric transformer and actuator etc. Effect of MnO$_2$ addition on the PSN ceramic was investigated. Anisotropic properties of electromechanical coupling factor and piezoelectric properties proved to be varied with amount of MnO$_2$ impurity and sintering temperature. The electromechanical coupling factor k$_{p}$ of 0.38 and the mechanical quality factor Q$_{m}$ of 1944 were obtained from the specimen with 0.4 wt% MnO$_2$ sintered at 115$0^{\circ}C$ addition. Experimental results indicated that the PSN ceramic with MnO$_2$ impurity can be effectively used for piezoelectric transformer and actuator.tor.

A new type of second-order digital peaking filters for professional-quality digital audio system is proposed whose frequency response can be elaborately controlled throughout the composite structure of a standard band-pass filter and a 0-dB bypass gain. The proposed method for designing the peaking filter uses the Q-compensation technique to prevent the Q-distortion caused by the variation of the gain factor and is reduced into a compact form which is proper to the real-time implementation. Methods are examined for computing its coefficients, which are exact and very straightforward to compute with small amount of the system resources.

The microwave dielectric properties of CuO and CdO addition of BiNbO$_4$ceramics were investigated. As the content of CdO increased, sintered density and quality factor is decreased. With increase in sintering temperature, the dielectric constant and quality factor is increased. In case of specimen sintered at 96$0^{\circ}C$ with 0.03 wt% CuO and CdO, the microwave dielectric properties obtained were dielectric constant of 41.2, quality factor (Q$\times$f) of 6, 500, temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of ppm/$^{\circ}C$.
