UAVs(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) can be used in variant fields fornot only combat, but also recon, observation and exploration. Moreover, UAVs capacity can be expanded to impossible missions for existing surveillance system such as SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) technology that collecting images from all weather conditions. In recent days, with development of highly efficient IC and lightened system technology, there are significant increase of researches and demands to make SAR sensor as a payload of UAV. Therefore, this paper contains development process and results of small signal generator and RF device as a core module of SAR system based on the digital device of DDS.

With limitation of frequency bandwidth, the range accuracy of typical radars is limited. In this paper, for short distance measurements, the use of an AM(Amplitude Modulated) radar which provides improved range accuracy is proposed. The AM radar signal consists of a carrier frequency signal and double-sideband components. The fabricated AM radar operates with +10 dBm output power and 35 dB receiver gain at 24.128 GHz center frequency with 20 MHz bandwidth, and the range accuracy is measured as ${\pm}15\;cm$.

We herein present a study on the active phased array antenna for receiving satellite broadcasting that can electrically align its polarization to that of target transmitters in its moving condition or in the Skew angle arrangement of the broadcasting satellite receiver. Hence, we have developed an active phased array structure composed of the self-developed Vivaldi antenna and multifunction core (MFC) chip, receiving RF front end module, and control units. In particular, the new Vivaldi antenna designed in the Ku-band of 10.7 - 14.5 GHz to receive one desired polarization mode such as the horizontal or vertical by means of an MFC chip and other control units that can control the amplitude and phase of each antenna element. The test results verified that cross-polarization property is 20 dB or higher and the primary beam can be scanned clearly at approximately ${\pm}60^{\circ}$.

An in-hole seismic tests, which has been developed for measuring dynamic properties of soils and rock mass, is a bore hole seismic method that has cost effectiveness and practicality. The upgraded features include the motorized triggering system rather than the manual prototype version in the previous studies and a damper between source and receiver in the module. The performance of the probe has been verified through extensive cross-hole tests and in-hole tests at various sites. The dynamic stiffness of subsurface materials and rock mass have been evaluated and recently, the measurement of shear wave velocity was successfully adopted at horizontal holes of tunnel-face to install explosives. So the application of in-hole seismic test for various soil materials was certified.

In this paper, the RF-modules composed of front-end, frequency synthesizer, modulator/demodulator and power control multi channel WLL personal system for W-CDMA using 10 [MHz] RF channel bandwidth has been implemented and considered. The measured transmission power is 250 [mW] which is very close to the required value. The measured flatness of power at the final output stage is ${\pm}1.5[dB]$ over the required bandwidth of the receiver. In addition, it is found that the chip rate transmitting spread signal is set to 8.192 [MHz], the required rate. The frequencies of RF_LO signal and LO signal of the modulator and the demodulator measured by a frequency synthesizer are satisfied with design requirements. The operating range of the receiving strength signal indicator and AGC units shows 60 [dB] respectively. Also the measured phasor diagram and eye pattern for deciding the RF modules compatible with baseband digital signal processing part are shown good results.

This paper proposes a new time synchronization scheme for the Automatic Identification System(AIS). The proposed scheme utilizes a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator(TCXO) as a local reference clock, and consists of a Digitally Controlled Oscillator(DCO), a divider, a phase comparator, and register blocks. Primary time reference is IPPS from GPS receiver that is synchronized to Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). And if GPS is unavailable, other station's signal is utilized as secondary time reference. The phase comparator measures time difference between the 1PPS and the generated transmit clock. The measured time difference is compensated by controlling the DCO and the transmit clock is synchronized to the Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). The synchronized transmit clock(9600Hz) is divided into the transmitting time slot(37.5Hz). The proposed scheme is tested in an experimental AIS transponder set. The experimental result shows that the proposed module satisfies the timing specification of the AIS technical standard, ITU-R M.1371-1.

In this paper, we present a patient real-time vital sign information transmission system to effectively support developing real-time communication service by using a real-time object model named TMO (Time-Triggered Message-Triggered Object). Also, we describe the application environment as the ICU(Intensive Care Unit) to guarantee real-time service message with TMO structure in distributed network systems. We have to design to obtain useful vital sign information, which is generated at parsing data receiver modulor of HIS with TMO structure, that is offered by the central monitor. Vital sign informations of central monitor is composed of the raw data of several bedsite patient monitors. We are willing to maintain vital sign information of real time and continuity that is generated from the bedsite patient monitor. It is able to apply to remote medical examination and treatment. we proposed integration method between a vital sign database systems and hospital information systems. In the real time simulation techniques based on TMO object modeling, We have observed several advantages to the TMO structuring scheme. TMO object modeling has a strong traceability between requirement specification and design.

A double rotation C-scanning system and a software program Under-Sodium MultiVIEW have been developed for the under-sodium viewing of a reactor core and in-vessel structures of a sodium-cooled fast reactor KALIMER-600. Double rotation C-scanning system has been designed and manufactured by the reproduction of double rotation plug of a reactor head in KALIMER-600. Hardware system which consists of a double rotating scanner, ultrasonic waveguide sensors, a high power ultrasonic pulser-receiver, a scanner driving module and a multi channel A/D board have been constructed. The functions of scanner control, image mapping and signal processing of Under-Sodium MultiVIEW program have been implemented by using a LabVIEW graphical programming language. The performance of Under-Sodium MultiVIEW program was verified by a double rotation C-scanning test in water.

An embedded two-axis solar tracking system was developed by using AVR micro controller for enhancing solar energy utilization. The system consists of an Atmega128 micro controller, two step motors, two step drive modules, CdS sensors, GPS module and other accessories needed for functional stability. This system is controlled by both an astronomical method and an optical method. Initial operation is performed by the result from the astronomical method, which is followed by the fine controlled operation using the signals from Cds sensors. The GPS sensor generates UTC, longitude and latitude data where the solar tracker is installed. A database of solar altitude, azimuth, and sunrise and sunset times is provided by UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter).
