A 900MHz CMOS RF power amplifier with digitally controllable output power has been proposed and designed with 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ standard CMOS technology. The designed power amplifier was composed of digitally controllable switch mode pre-amplifiers with an integrated 4nH spiral inductor load and class-C output stage. Especially, to compensate the 1ow Q of integrated spiral inductor, cascode amplifier with a Q-enhancement circuit is used. It has been shown that the proposed power control technique allows the output power to change from almost 3dBm to 13.5dBm. And it has a maximum PAE(Power Added Efficiency) of almost 55％ at 900MHz operating frequency and 3V power supply voltage.

This paper is proposed the hardware structure and signal processing method of the RF-Tag based on heart sound to develop the mobile biomedical information device for the u-healthcare system. The RF-Tag in this study is consisted of a skin temperature sensor, a dynamic microphone for heart sound detection, Bluetooth communication to transmute healthcare data, and pulse period detection algorithm with adaptive gain controller. We experimented to evaluate performance of the RF-Tag in noisy environments. In addition, the RF-Tag has shown the good performance in the results of experiment. If the proposed methods in this study apply to design the u-healthcare device, we will be able to get the exact health data on real time in mobile environments.

Radiofrequency (RF) radiation might induce the transcription of a certain set of genes as other physical stresses like ionizing radiation and UV. To observe transcriptional changes upon RF radiation, we exposed WI-38, human lung fibroblast cell to 1763 MHz of mobile phone RF radiation at 60 W/kg of specific absorption rate (SAR) for 24h with or without heat control. There were no significant changes in cell numbers and morphology after exposure to RF radiation. Using quantitative RT-PCR, we checked the expression of three heat shock protein (HSP) (HSPA1A, HSPA6 and HSP105) and seven stress-related genes (TNFRSF11B, FGF2, TGFB2, ITGA2, BRIP1, EXO1, and MCM10) in RF only and RF/HS groups of RF-exposed cells. The expressions of three heat shock proteins and seven stress-related genes were selectively changed only in RF/HS groups. Based on the expression of ten genes, we could classify thermal and non-thermal effect of RF-exposure, which genes can be used as biomarkers for RF radiation exposure.

In this paper, We designed and implemented an RF module for WLL multi-channel personal stations. Then, we experimentally evaluated in receiving sensitivity, adjacent channel interference selectivity and spurious response limit. From the measurement results on the RF module for WLL multi-channel personal stations, we observed and confirmed as follows: First, the variation in output power level was kept to be less than 30 dBm in the range of the input power level from -90 dBm to -30dBm. This measurement result confirmed the dynamic range of 60 dB. Secondly, at the output stage of the RF module, the gain flatness in the pass band was measured to be less than 2dB, which confirmed a precise control of the bandspread signals. Thirdly, at the RF module, the bandwidth and power level in transmission were measured to be 10 MHz, respectively we note that these features satisfy the design specifications.

In this paper, the design of the RF system monitoring and control system of KUS (KASS: KASS Uplink Station) which constitutes KASS (Korea Augmentation Satellite System) is described. The Korean satellite calibration system is named KASS and aims to develop the SBAS system of the APV-1 level SoL service level and the CAT-1 test operation technology. Software and hardware development environment, function and algorithm of supervisory control device, structure of supervisory control device, and user interface were designed to implement KUS / RFS monitoring control device. We have secured the stability and reliability of the system by using the monitoring and control system design of the COMS (Communication Ocean & Meteorological Satellite) and the Korea Satellite 5A / 7 control system, which has already been used for the design of the surveillance control system. In addition, we have made it possible to provide the user interface according to the actual operator's request more conveniently.

OBE(On Board Equipment) of IR(Infrared)/RF(Radio Frequence)-DSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication) are set up 1.25 million cars because Korea Highway Cooperation supplied in HiPass(Domestic Electronic Toll Collection System). But this DSRC system has strength and weakness of service for BIS(Bus Information System) or UTIS(Urban Traffic Information System) because BIS and UTIS are required vary high communication's performance and management. In this paper, Efficiency of IR/RF-DSRC is analyzed performance of MAC(Medium Access Control) by computer simulation for services of BIS or UTIS, so Suggested to be commensurated with medium of there service. Specially, DSRC is needed high mobility and throughput in the vary short communication range, so Analysed the transmission rate of data in each communication medium over the specific character of the MAC frame.

This paper presents a wide dynamic range radio-frequency (RF) root-mean-square (RMS) power detector using an automatic gain control (AGC) loop. The AGC loop consists of a variable gain amplifier (VGA), RMS conversion block and gain control block. The VGA exploits dB-linear gain characteristic of the cascade VGA. The proposed circuit utilizes full-wave squaring and generates a DC voltage proportional to the RMS of an input RF signal. The proposed RMS power detector operates from 500MHz to 5GHz. The detecting input signal range is from 0 dBm to -70 dBm or more with a conversion gain of -4.53 mV/dBm. The proposed RMS power detector is designed in a 65-nm 1.2-V CMOS process, and dissipates a power of 5 mW. The total active area is $0.0097mm^2$.

CNC tools contribute to the production of high-precision and consistent results. However, employing damaged CNC tools or utilizing compromised numerical control can lead to significant issues, including equipment damage, overheating, and system-wide errors. Typically, the assessment of external damage to CNC tools involves capturing a single viewpoint through a camera to evaluate tool wear. This study aims to enhance existing methods by using only a single manually focused Microscope camera to enable comprehensive external analysis from multiple perspectives. Applying the NeRF (Neural Radiance Fields) algorithm to images captured with a single manual focus microscope camera, we construct a 3D rendering system. Through this system, it is possible to generate scenes of areas that cannot be captured even with a fixed camera setup, thereby assisting in the analysis of exterior features. However, the NeRF model requires considerable training time, ranging from several hours to over two days. To overcome these limitations of NeRF, various subsequent models have been developed. Therefore, this study aims to compare and apply the performance of Instant NGP, Mip-NeRF, and DS-NeRF, which have garnered attention following NeRF.
