  • 본 논문은 단위 방사 소자의 이득을 증가시키기 위한 성형 빔 안테나에 관한 것이다. 제안하는 안테나 구조는 크게 여기 소자와 다층 원형 도체 배열 구조로 구성된다. 광대역에 걸쳐 전자파 전력이 다층 원형 도체 배열로 방사하기 위한 여기 소자로 스택 마이크로스트립 패치 소자가 사용되었으며, 고이득 빔 성형을 위한 지향 소자의 역할을 담당하는 다층 원형 도체 배열 소자들은 여기 소자 위에 주기적으로 유한하게 적층되었다. 제안하는 안테나가 고이득 특성을 얻기 위해서는 여기 소자와 다층 원형 도체 배열 소자들 간의 효율적인 전력 결합이 이루어져야 하며, 이를 위해 주어진 설계 규격에 따라 여기 소자 및 다층 원형 도체 배열 소자들의 설계 변수들은 함께 최적화되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 고이득 성형 빔 안테나는 $9.6{\sim}10.4\;GHz$ 주파수 대역 및 선형 편파 조건하에서 최적화 설계되었으며, 또한 안테나의 다층 원형 도체 배열 소자들을 구현하는 2가지 방법 즉, 얇은 유전체 필름을 이용하는 방법과 유전체 폼을 이용하는 방법들도 제안되었다. 특히, 유전체 필름을 이용하는 안테나에 대해서는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 과정을 통해, 원형 도체 배열 소자들의 적층 수에 따른 안테나의 전기적인 성능 변화들을 보여주었다. 유전체 필름(Type 1)과 유전체 폼(Type 2)을 이용한 2종류의 안테나 시제품들을 제작하였으며, 얇은 유전체 필름을 이용한 안테나 시제품에 대해선 시뮬레이션 된 전기적 성능 결과와 비교를 위해 원형 도체 배열 적층 수에 따른 안테나의 전기적인 성능 변화들을 실험하였다. 측정된 이득 성능은 시뮬레이션 이득 성능과 거의 유사한 결과를 보여주었으며, 원형 도체 적층 수에 따라 안테나 이득 변화는 주기성을 보였다. 10 GHz 중심 주파수에서 측정된 Type 1 안테나의 전기적 성능은 원형 도체 배열을 10개 적층(disk10)하였을 때, 15.65 dBi의 최대 안테나 이득과 11.4 dB 이상의 입력 반사 손실 성능을 보여 주었으며, 다층 원형 도체 배열 구조에 의해 약 5 dB의 이득 향상 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 원형 도체를 12개 적층하였을 때, 외곽 유전체 링 효과에 의해 Type 1 안테나는 Type 2 안테나보다 상대적으로 약 1.35 dB 만큼 이득이 더 높았으며, 각 안테나의 3 dB 빔 폭은 각각 약 $28^{\circ}$$36^{\circ}$로 측정되었다.

  • Polygalacturonase (PG) gene is a typical gene family present in eukaryotes. Forty-nine PGs were mined from the genomes of Neurospora crassa and five Aspergillus species. The PGs were classified into 3 clades such as clade 1 for rhamno-PGs, clade 2 for exo-PGs and clade 3 for exo- and endo-PGs, which were further grouped into 13 sub-clades based on the polypeptide sequence similarity. In gene structure analysis, a total of 124 introns were present in 44 genes and five genes lacked introns to give an average of 2.5 introns per gene. Intron phase distribution was 64.5% for phase 0, 21.8% for phase 1, and 13.7% for phase 2, respectively. The introns varied in their sequences and their lengths ranged from 20 bp to 424 bp with an average of 65.9 bp, which is approximately half the size of introns in other fungal genes. There were 29 homologous intron blocks and 26 of those were sub-clade specific. Intron losses were counted in 18 introns in which no obvious phase preference for intron loss was observed. Eighteen introns were placed at novel positions, which is considerably higher than those of plant PGs. In an evolutionary sense both intron loss and gain must have taken place for shaping the current PGs in these fungi. Together with the small intron size, low conservation of homologous intron blocks and higher number of novel introns, PGs of fungal species seem to have recently undergone highly dynamic evolution.

  • The aim of radiosurgery cures a patient to deliver the lower dose at the normal organ and the higher dose at the tumor. Therefore accuracy of the dose is required to gain effect of radiosurgery in surgical planning. In this paper, we developed the methods of target approximation for a fast treatment planning. Nominally, the stereotactic radiosurgery(SRS) using Linac and Gamma knife produces spherical dose distribution through circular collimators using multiple arcs and 201 holes on semi-spherical helmet by $^{60}Co$. We developed an automatic radiosurgical plan about spherical packing arrangement. To automatically plan the SRS, new planning methods based on cylinder and cube structure for target shaping was developed. This approach using heuristic and stochastic algorithm is a useful radiosurgical plan without restrictions in the various tumor shapes and the different modalities.

  • This paper presents a study of low frequencies volume velocity vibration control of a smart panel in order to reduce sound transmission. A distributed piezoelectric quadratically shaped polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymer film is used as a uniform force actuator and an array of $4\;{\times}\;4$ accelerometer is used as a volume velocity sensor for the implementation of a single-input single-output control system. The theoretical and experimental study of sensor-.actuator frequency response function shows that this sensor-actuator arrangement provides a required strictly positive real frequency response function below about 900 Hz. Direct velocity feedback could therefore be implemented with a limited gain which gives reductions of about 15 dB in vibration level and about 8 dB in acoustic power level at the (1,1) mode of the smart panel. It has been also shown that the shaping error of PVDF actuator could limit the stability and performance of the control system.

  • A symmetric approach, using external rhinoplasty, is presented to aid the plastic surgeon in obtaining improved aesthetic and functional results in patients with postoperative nasal deformities. The external approach yields a full visualization of the underlying nasal framework and intraoperative evaluation of the deformities to be corrected subsequently. The nasal septal cartilage is unequivocally one of the best graft sources for reconstruction of the dorsum, columella or tip. It has fairly even surface and pliability in carving and shaping the graft. The graft can be obtained during the surgery with less morbidity and prepared easily for need of the shape. The only real disadvantage is the limited amount of cartilage that can be obtained from the septum. The dorsal and caudal rims, one or more cm in width, of the nasal septum should not be disturbed to maintain the nasal frame during harvesting the septal graft. Authors invented novel instruments, J & D knife and Flat (Spatula) suction tip, and have employed the devices for harvesting the septal cartilage. We were unable to gain enough amount of the cartilage by using a swivel knife or cartilage scissors. The septal cartilage can be resected as much as needed with newly invented instruments which facilitate a separation(method) technique.

  • This paper investigates the design of disturbance observer for rotational vibration suppression in disk drive systems. The design aims to provide an optimal controller which satisfies both vibration performance and robust stability. It consists of an inversion method, a special filter, and optimization scheme. Firstly a new inversion method is introduced, which provides more accurate inversion compared to conventional zero phase error method. The inversion is to deal with unstable zeros in the plant model. Secondly a special filter for disturbance selection is given, which features adjustable gain and band pass characteristics so that it enables flexible shaping of the loop considering the trade-off between performance and stability margins. And finally the parameters of disturbance observer are optimized in conjunction with external disturbance model. Simulation and experiment on commercial hard disk drives confirm that the design is very effective to such disturbance which is hard to be handled by conventional approach.

  • Seed endophytes are very remarkable groups of bacteria for their unique abilities of being vertically transmitted and conserved. As plants attain hybrid vigor and heterosis in the process of crossbreeding, this might also lead to the changes in the community structure and diversity of plant endophytes in the hybrid plants ultimately affecting the endophytes of the seeds. It would be interesting to characterize how seed endophyte composition change over time. The objective of this study is to gain insights into the influence of natural crossbreeding and parental lineage in the seed bacterial endophytic communities of two pure inbred lines exploring contributions of the two most important sources of plant endophytes - colonization from external sources and vertical transmission via seeds. Total genomic DNA was isolated from rice seeds and bacterial DNA was selectively amplified by PCR. The diversity of endophytic bacteria was studied through Terminal-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis. Diversity between the original parents and the pure inbred line may show significant differences in terms of richness, evenness and diversity indices. Heat maps reveal astonishing contributions of both or either parents (IR29 ${\times}$ Pokkali and AT401 ${\times}$ IR31868) in the shaping of the bacterial seed endophytes of the hybrid, FL478 and IC32, respectively. Most of the T-RFs of the subsequent pure inbred line could be traced to any or both of the parents. Comparison of common and genotype-specific T-RFs of parents and their offspring reveals that majority of the T-RFs are shared suggesting higher transmission of bacterial communities common to both parents. The parents influence the bacterial community of their offspring. Unique T-RFs of the offspring also suggest external sources of colonization particularly as the seeds are cultivated in different ecogeographical locations. This study showed that host parental lines contributed greatly in the shaping of bacterial seed endophytes of their offspring. It also revealed transmission and potential conservation of core seed bacterial endophytes that generally become the dominant microbiota in the succeeding generations of plant hosts.

  • 본 논문에서는 조밀도가 증가된 3차원 십자격자형 신호성상도의 설계 방법을 제시하고 분석한다. 우수한 성형이득을 얻기 위하여 여기서는 기존 성상도에서 최외곽에 위치한 심볼들을 빈 면과 움푹 들어간 모서리로 이동시킨다. 제시된 신호성상도는 심볼 간 최소 유클리드 거리를 동일하게 유지하면서도 기존 성상도에 비하여 크기에 따라 3~5% 감소된 평균전력과 최대 25%까지 감소된 체적을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 조밀도의 증가로 인하여 새로운 성상도는 기존 성상도에 비하여 감소된 평균전력을 가진다. 그 결과, 제시된 십자격자형 신호성상도는 디지털 전송시스템의 심볼오류성능을 0.4 [dB] 가량 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 제안된 3차원 격자형 신호성상도는 저전력 및 고신뢰성이 요구되는 디지털 통신시스템에 적합한 것으로 사료된다.
