In this work, a transmitter/receiver front-end module (T/R FEM) with an automatic Tx/Rx switching scheme for a 2.4 GHz microwave power transfer is developed for a retro-reflective beamforming scheme. Recently, research on wireless power transfer techniques has moved to wireless charging systems for mobile devices. Retro-reflective beamforming is a good candidate for tracking the spatial position of a mobile device to be charged. In Tx mode, the T/R FEM generates a minimum of 1 W. It also comprises an amplitude and phase monitoring port for transmitting RF power. In Rx mode, it passes an Rx pilot signal from a mobile device to a digital baseband subsystem to recognize the position of the mobile device. The insertion loss of the Rx signal path is 4.5 dB. The Tx and Rx modes are automatically switched by detecting the Tx input power. This T/R FEM is a design example of T/R FEMs for wireless charging systems based on a retro-reflective beamforming scheme.

The structural stability of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) solubilized by Triton X-100 (TX-100) was studied by measuring the denaturation kinetics in the dark and under illumination, and compared with the structural stability of bR solubilized by octyl-${\beta}$-glucoside (OG). In the dark, bR solubilized by TX- 100 was more stable than bR solubilized by OG. Under illumination, bR solubilized by TX-100 showed light-induced denaturation in the same manner as bR solubilized by OG. These results in the dark well correlated with the experimental results of the visible CD band. Although solubilized bR in the TX-100 concentration range of 2-50 mM showed almost identical positive CD band and did not denature in the dark at 35$^{\circ}$C, the kinetic constant of the photobleaching increased with the increase of TX-100 concentration. These results suggested that photo-intermediates of solubilized bR are destabilized by TX-100 micelles.

In this paper, circular polarized antennas of Tx 30GHz and Rx 20GHz are implemented in LTCC process. Tx antenna has a circular patch structure and Rx antenna has a ring patch structure. The feeding line of Tx antenna is placed in the center hole of Rx ring patch antenna which is printed under Tx circular patch antenna layer. It makes antenna size smaller. Tx antenna's return loss in under -10dB level from 30GHz to 31GHz and Rx antenna is under -10 dB from 20GHz to 21GHz. The isolation between two antennas is less than -20dB. Axial ratio is less than 3dB though out each band.

Most cellsite are operated by 3-sector system in these days. Due to the weak propagating signal caused by peculiar topography, there exist weak or shadow regions. To solve this problem, we need double beam in a sector, thus we have to design 4-sector cellisite even if investment cost and maintenance cost gets high. We propose here using the dual TX-ANT instead of designing 4-sector cellsite to reduse investment cost and to improve call quality. We choose YangPeong and Gepo cellisite in Seoul and DuckCheon cellsite in Pusan to run the experiments. And we verified the practicality by comparing data before and before and after the installation of dual TX-ANT.

Purpose: This study is to assess oriental medicine treatment for cervical sprain from traffic accident using DITI. Methods: 21 patients who hospitalized in the Kangnam Korean Hospital, KyungHee Univ. from March 1, 2004 to September 30, 2005 diagnosed as cervical sprain from traffic accident were participated in this study. They received acupuncture treatment, Herb medicine, ICT-Tx, and Nega-Tx during the admission period. We checked temperature of neck(A area) and whole back(B area) and ${\Delta}T$ were calculated at admission date(pre-Tx group, ${\Delta}T1$) and discharged date(post-Tx group, ${\Delta}T2$). Results: ${\Delta}T2$ decreased significantly in post-Tx group compared with ${\Delta}T1$ in pre-Tx group Conclusion: Oriental medicine treatment can be the effective way to treat cervical sprain from traffic accident. and DITI can be useful instrument to assess oriental medicine treatments.

In this paper, new directional couplers for T/R switch of UHF RFID applications are proposed to overcome TX-to-RX leakage problem. The proposed method can remove TX-to-RX leakage caused by both imperfect isolation characteristic of the conventional directional coupler and the mismatch of antenna impedance. Two directional couplers are implemented using distributed elements and lumped elements respectively for the verification. The varactor tuneable circuits for compensation of the antenna mismatch is also proposed. The measurement result shows excellent TX-to-RX leakage suppression, more than 45dB in 910MHz.

Two-photometric light curves(Oh and Chen 1984) of the eclipsing binary TX UMa have been analyzed by the method of differential corrections of the model of Wilson and Devinney (1971). The system found to be simi-detached with the cooler and less massive component filling its Roche lobe. The absolute dimensions have been derived from the results of the photometric solutions with the spectroscopic elements of Hiltner(1945). It is assumed that the B8V primary component is on the zero main sequence stage of the core hydrogen burning and the secondary is at the core contraction stage after the shell hydrogen burning stage according to the Iben's (1967) evolutional tracks for $3.0m_\odot$ and $1.0m_\odot$ .

최근 들어 ATSC-DTV의 미래형 핵심기술로 손꼽히고 있는 송신기 식별기술(TxID ; Transmitter Identification)이 새로운 신기술로 대두되고 있으며, 이에 대한 구현성 검증은 현재 활발하게 논의 중인 재생중계기(EDOCR)와 연계된 단일주파수망(SFN; Single Frequency Network)기술의 실용화를 위한 핵심적 역할을 한다고 볼 수 있다. 하지만 종래의 TxID기술은 긴 주기의 워터마킹용 확산코드를 사용하므로 수신기 입장에서 하드웨어 부피가 크게 증가되는 문제점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 TxID 수신기 하드웨어 부피를 크게 경감시킬 수 있는 새로운 Decimated Correlation 기법을 이용한 DTV TxID 수신 신호의 효율적인 신호처리 기법을 제시하였으며, 모의실험을 통한 성능평가를 통해 제안한 알고리즘의 유용성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, we studied on the optimization of the output power of Mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) base station considering the technical condition of base station and wireless channel condition. The optimum power of base station can be estimated based on the link budget calculation of downlink and uplink in the Mobile WiMAX communication system. We investigated the optimum output power of base station in the case of 2Tx-2Rx base station with $2{\times}2$ MIMO(multiple input multiple output) technology, 2Tx-4Rx base station with improved receiver sensitivity, and 4Tx-4Rx base station with beamforming technology.

Objective : Numerous studies have indicated that early decompressive craniectomy (DC) for patients with major infarction can be life-saving and enhance neurological outcomes. However, most of these studies were conducted by neurologists before the advent of intra-arterial thrombectomy (IA-Tx). This study aims to determine whether neurological status significantly impacts the final clinical outcome of patients who underwent DC following IA-Tx in major infarction. Methods : This analysis included 67 patients with major anterior circulation major infarction who underwent DC after IA-Tx, with or without intravenous tissue plasminogen activator. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records, radiological findings, and compared the neurological outcomes based on the "surgical time window" and neurological status at the time of surgery. Results : For patients treated with DC following IA-Tx, a Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score of 7 was the lowest score correlated with a favorable outcome (p=0.013). Favorable outcomes were significantly associated with successful recanalization after IA-Tx (p=0.001) and perfusion/diffusion (P/D)-mismatch evident on magnetic resonance imaging performed immediately prior to IA-Tx (p=0.007). However, the surgical time window (within 36 hours, p=0.389; within 48 hours, p=0.283) did not correlate with neurological outcomes. Conclusion : To date, early DC surgery after major infarction is crucial for patient outcomes. However, this study suggests that the indication for DC following IA-Tx should include neurological status (GCS ≤7), as some patients treated with early DC without considering the neurological status may undergo unnecessary surgery. Recanalization of the occluded vessel and P/D-mismatch are important for long-term neurological outcomes.
