Scattering resonance of medium mass nuclides leads complex spectrum in the fast reactor, which requires thousands of energy groups in the spectrum calculation. When the broad-group cross sections are collapsed, reaction rate cannot be completely conserved. To eliminate the error from energy collapsing, the Super-homogenization method in energy collapsing (ESPH) was employed in the fast reactor code SARAX. An ESPH factor was derived based on the ESPH-corrected SN transport equation. By applying the factor in problems with reflective boundary condition, both the effective multiplication factor and reaction rate were conserved. The fixed-source iteration was used to ensure the stability of ESPH iteration. However, in the energy collapsing process of SARAX, the vacuum boundary condition was adopted, which was necessary for fast reactors with strong heterogeneity. To further reduce the error caused by leakage, an additional conservation factor was proposed to correct the neutron current in energy collapsing. To evaluate the performance of ESPH with conservation factor, numerical benchmarks of fast reactors were calculated. The results of broad-group calculation agreed well with the direct full-core Monte-Carlo calculation, including the effective multiplication factor, radial power distribution, total control rod worth and sodium void worth.

In this study, the purpose is to verified the feasibility to develope Hybrid x-ray detector in order to resolve problems of direct and indirect x-ray detectors. The properties of X-ray detector depend on absorption of X-ray, charge generation by x-ray photon, leakage current. In this study, CdS was used as photoconductor, and $Y_2O_2S:Tb$ as x-ray phosphor was formed on CdS in order to embody Hybrid structure. And Screen printing was used to form Muli-layer. Characteristics of this specimen were analyzed by using SEM, and XRD. And Photoluminescence spectrum of $Y_2O_2S:Tb$, leakage current, with respect to applied voltages, output charge with respect to applied voltages, and X-ray sensitivity were measured. Also, linearity with respect to dose was measured. Leakage current was similar with direct digital x-ray detector, but sensitivity of the hybrid structure is much better than the single-layer structure.

In stochastic hyperspectral target detection algorithms, the target signal components may be included in the background characterization if targets are not rare in the image, causing target leakage. In this paper, the effect of target leakage is analysed and an improved hyperspectral target detection method is proposed by excluding the pixels which have similar reflectance spectrum with the target in the process of background characterization. Experimental results using the AISA airborne hyperspectral data and simulated data with artificial targets show that the proposed method can dramatically improve the target detection performance of matched filter and adaptive cosine estimator. More studies on the various metrics for measuring spectral similarity and adaptive method to decide the appropriate amount of exclusion are expected to increase the performance and usability of this method.

In modern wireless communication, it has been regarded as a important problem for the spectrum efficiency to utilize the limited frequency-resource efficiently. In addition, the system architecture has been designed for low cost, low power consumption and ultra-lightweight. In this paper, we directly modulated the BCPFSK with a superior spectrum efficiency using the DDS and applied the direct conversion to the system architecture. Finally, we designed a transceiver which has the 433 MHz BCPFSK output and evaluated the system performance. In the measured result, we know that as for spectrum and the power efficiency, BCPFSK method is better than conventional one. Also, the results of the designed system is 433.92 MHz in center frequency and about 33 dBc in carrier suppression ratio. And we get the better results in local oscillator leakage and the spurious of the ISM out-band the same as -69dBc and under 60dBc.

Investigations of high frequency current transformer(HF-CT) waveform characteristics of the surface leakage on kaolin polluted EPDM polymer insulators have been performed. This work is part of a program aimed at examining the potential for HF-CT waveform characteristics analysis to provide information about the environment contaminants and environment condition of polymer insulators. The investigation reported examined the HF-CT waveform characteristics at high frequencies. The use of high frequency measurements for on-line applications reduces electrical inference. This work was peformed utilizing HF-CT to monitor of surface polluted discharge. It was found that HF-CT waveform frequency spectrum, magnitude depend on importantly the duration of the surface discharge activity.

The 3$\mu\textrm{m}$-thick PVDF (Polyvinyiidene fluoride) thin film have been prepared using physical vapor deposition with electric field, and its FT-IR specrum, dielectric property and electric conduction phenomenon have been investigated. Since the characteristic peaks ate detected at 509.45 and 1273.6〔cm〕 in the FT-IR spectrum, we are confirmed that the ${\beta}$ -phase is dominant in the PVDF thin film. In the results of dielectric properties, the PVDF thin film shows anomalous dispersion, i.e. gradual decrease of dielectric constant with increase of frequency, and also that the dielectric absorption point changes from 200Hz to 7000Hz with increasing temperature of thin film, which is consistent with the Debye's theory. The activation energy (ΔH) obtained from temperature dependence of dielectric loss is 21.64 ㎉/㏖. We confirm that the electric conduction mechanism of PVDF thin film is dominated by ionic conduction by investigating the dependence of the leakage current of the thin film on the temperature and the electric field.

음성 신호는 시간에 따라 변하지만 일정 구간에서는 특성이 변하지 않는다고 가정하여 윈도우를 취해 단구간 분석을 한다. 이 때 윈도우의 적용은 필수적이다. 하지만 단구간 분석을 위해서 사용되는 윈도우에 의해 생기는 누설에너지 때문에 음성신호의 스펙트럼 정보가 왜곡되어 버린다. 본 논문에서는 스펙트럼 분석 시 발생되는 누설에너지를 최소화하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 음성신호에 고정된 크기의 rectangular Window를 취한 후 처음 샘플과 차이가 가장 작은 샘플을 프레임 크기의 3/4인 지점에서부터 검색하여 최소인 부분까지 시간 축 스케일링을 한 후 기존의 윈도우 크기와 같은 크기로 만든다. interpolation과 decimation을 조합하여 시간 축 스케일링을 한다. 이렇게 윈도우가 적용된 신호를 처리 후 위의 역 과정을 수행한다. 제안한 윈도우의 SNRseg는 rectangular window보다 평균 7.88dB 낮고, kaiser window보다 평균 1.65dB 높았다. 또한 제안한 윈도우의 SD는 rectangular window 보다 평균 $1.73dB^\2$ 낮았다.

CDMA(code division multiple access) has very large peak to average power ratio(PAR) and behave as noise-like wide band digital signals with 1.2288 Mbps transmission rate. For signals with high PAR like CDMA, it is reasonable to prescribe occupied bandwidth(OBW) as average occupied bandwidth. Bandwidth measurements of CDMA signals at remote site are affected by co-channel and adjacent channel interference from adjacent CDMA base station, distortion of signal by fading effect, spurious emission and environment noises. In this study, we have compared OBW measurements in an on-air environment with those measured in a base station using adjacent channel leakage ratio(ACLR) as a reference measurement factor. As results of analysis, the OBW at ACLR$\geq$35 ㏈ shows nearly same statistical characteristics regardless of the measurement locations and environments.

Ultrasonic fiber sensor is more cost-effective than optical fiber sensor using light. However, optical fiber lines are separately used for sensing. Thus, if it is applied for huge system, it is need many lines of the sensor systems. To overcome this point, novel ultrasonic sensor systems considering wave cancellation and modulation were newly developed. By using this schema, reference-free sensor system can be developed. By using ultrasonic waves of different excitation frequencies, multiple input-signal output sensor system was also developed by applying spectrum analyses. Using the array type sensor system, the leakage of liquid and its evaporation can be monitored successfully.

Photoelectric characteristics of a hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film transistor(a-Si:H TFT) were obtained for the illumination from various backlight sources and the results were compared and analyzed in terms of the photon energy spectral characteristics of the backlights obtained from the integration of the multiplication of the photon energy and the spectral intensity at etch wavelength. It was possible to conclude that the absorption of illuminated backlight to a-Si:H layer and the generation of electrons and holes are mainly carried out at the wavelength less than 500nm.
