We measured electrical shot noise in a metal-insulator-metal tunnel junction, which was made by using electron-beam lithography and double-angle evaporation technique. Since the dependence of the shot noise on bias voltage and temperature is theoretically well known, we can determine the temperature of the junction by measuring the noise as the voltage across the junction is changed. A cryogenic low noise amplifier was used to amplify the noise signal in the frequency range of 600-800 MHz, which enabled fast measurement of noise signal and thus temperature. With further study, this method could be useful for primary thermometry in cryogenic temperatures.

This study proposed a rainfall-runoff model for the purpose of real-time flood warning in urban basins. The proposed model was based on the shot noise process, which is expressed as a sum of shot noises determined independently with the peak value, decay parameter and time delay of each sub-basin. The proposed model was different from other rainfall-runoff models from the point that the runoff from each sub-basin reaches the basin outlet independently. The model parameters can be easily determined by the empirical formulas for the concentration time and storage coefficient of a basin and those of the pipe flow. The proposed model was applied to the total of three rainfall events observed at the Jungdong, Guro 1 and Daerim 2 pumping stations to evaluate its applicability. Summarizing the results is as follows. (1) The unit response function of the proposed model, different from other rainfall-runoff models, has the same shape regardless of the rainfall duration. (2) The proposed model shows a convergent shape as the calculation time interval becomes smaller. As the proposed model was proposed to be applied to urban basins, one-minute of calculation time interval would be most appropriate. (3) Application of the one-minute unit response function to the observed rainfall events showed that the simulated runoff hydrographs were very similar to those observed. This result indicates that the proposed model has a good application potential for the rainfall-runoff analysis in urban basins.

This study proposes a method to generate runoff ensemble members using a rainfall-runoff model based on the shot noise process (hereafter the rainfall-runoff model). The proposed method was applied to generate runoff ensemble members for three drainage basins of Daerim 2, Guro 1 and the Jungdong, whose results were then compared with the observed. The parameters of the rainfall-runoff model were estimated using the empirical formulas like the Kerby, Kraven II and Russel, also the concept of modified rational formula. Gamma and exponential distributions were used to generate random numbers of the parameters of the rainfall-runoff model. Especially, the gamma distribution is found to be useful to generate various random numbers depending on the pre-assigned relationship between mean and standard deviation. Comparison between the generated runoff ensemble members and the observed shows that those runoff ensemble members generated using the gamma distribution with its standard deviation twice of the mean properly cover the observed runoff.

This paper studies an experimental analysis of the impulse noise of K2 rifle when its bullet passes through the large tube(length 1.84m, outer diameter 50cm, glass wool & steel). In experiment, the characteristics of the sound of shooting were different according to the way of shooting; the results of the experiment are given below. First of all, the shooting sound was lower in single-shot shooting, when compared to 3rds burst-shot shooting, difference averaging 2.8dB, 4.0dB at maximum. In short, the difference is minuscule. Secondly, the sound of the K2 rifle was diminished when shot in a tube, ranging from 2.7dB to 15.4dB, averaging 8.2dB. Thirdly, the shooting sound of the K2 rifle was diminished as the insertion depth deepened with formulas given in Fig. 5, 6. Fourthly, basic data for excluding sound of the shooting were presented. Lastly, the characteristics of the shooting sound could be equally used as a basic material for developing marksmanship and sharp-shooting detection device.

PIV (particle image velocimetry) systems use a camera to take snapshots of particles carried by a fluid at some precise instants. Signal processing methods are then used to compute the flow velocity field. In this paper, the design of the camera objective (optics) is addressed. The optimization is done in order to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of in-focus particles. Four different kinds of noise are considered: photon shot noise, thermal and read noise, background glow shot noise, and noise made by the other particles. A semi-empirical model for the lens aberrations of a two-doublet objective is first addressed, since further, it is shown that lens aberrations (low f-value $f_{\#}$) should be used instead of the Fraunhofer diffraction (high f-value) for the fitting of the particle image size with the pixel size. Other important conclusions of the paper include the expression of optimum values for the magnification M, for the exposure period $\tau$ and for the pixel size $\xi$.

Dual-energy X-ray imaging (DEI) techniques can provide X-ray images that a certain material is suppressed or emphasized by combining two X-ray images obtained from two different x-ray spectrum. In this paper, a single-shot DEI, which uses stacked two detectors (i.e., multilayer detector), is proposed to reduce the patient dose and increase throughput in angiography. The polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and aluminum (Al) were selected as two basis materials for material decomposition, and material-specific images are reconstructed as a vector combination of these two materials. We investigate the contrast and noise performance of material-decomposed images using iodine phantoms with various concentrations and diameters. The single-shot DEI shows comparable performances to the conventional dual-shot DEI. In particular, the single-shot DEI shows edge enhancement in material-decomposed images due to the different spatial-resolution characteristics of upper and lower detectors. This study could be useful for designing the multilayer detector including scintillators and energy-separation filter for angiography purposes.

이동성 기반의 기존 엣지 캐싱 연구에서는 인기도가 짧은 시간 급격하게 변화하는 SNM(Shot Noise Model) 콘텐츠를 반영하지 않았다. 동적 인기도 특성을 다루지 않는 경우, 잦은 캐시 미스가 발생하므로 SNM 콘텐츠를 고려하는 것은 중요하다. 이에 본 논문은 이동성을 고려한 기존 연구에 SNM 콘텐츠를 함께 고려하고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존 연구 대비 제안 알고리즘의 향상된 캐시 적중률을 확인한다.

A new signal processing algorithm for white light interferometry has been proposed and investigated theoretically. The goal of the algorithm is to determine the absolute optical path length of an interferometer with very high precision (<< one optical wavelength). The algorithm features cross-correlation of interferometer fringe scans and hypothesis testing. The hypothesis test looks for a zero order fringe peak candidate about which the cross-correlation is symmetric minimizing the uncertainty of misidentification. The shot noise limited performance of the proposed signal processing algorithm has been analyzed using computer simulations. Simulation results were extrapolated to predict the misidentification rate at Signal to-Shot noise ratio (SNR) higher than 31 dB. Root-mean-square phase error between the computer-generated zero order fringe peak and the estimated zero order fringe peak has been calculated for the changes of three different parameters (SNR, fringe scan sampling rate, coherence length of light source). Results of computer simulations showed the ability of the proposed signal processing algorithm to identify the zero order fringe peak correctly. The proposed signal processing algorithm uses a software approach, which is potentially inexpensive, simple and fast.
