Jamming countermeasures are used to decrease or prevent the impact of intentional jamming applied to degrade the quality of information provided by a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver. The maximum performance of jamming countermeasure can be obtained only when a proper technique is applied according to the type of jammer. This paper suggests a jamming identification technique for providing information regarding the type of jamming. The center frequency and bandwidth of jammer signal are inconsistent and may change according to time, and thus a spectral correlation function and wavelet coherence were considered in order to analyze the signal in the time and frequency space. Because the two characteristics derive different analysis results, two different identification techniques were suggested and the performances thereof were analyzed. Numerical results show that the two identification techniques have relative advantages and disadvantages as to time consumed and performance. The suggested methods can sufficiently identify the jammer before the GNSS receiver becomes inoperable because of jamming.

능동 소나에서 시간 지연 추정은 목표와 소나 사이의 거리를 알아내기 위해서 사용하고 있다. 능동 소나에서 시간 지연을 추정할 때 주파수 영역에서 계산하면 시간 지연 추정이 주파수 추정으로 바꾸어 생각할 수 있어서 비교적 쉽게 사용할 수 있다. 그러나 이 방법은 잡음에 의해 오류가 급증할 요소가 포함되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 이런 오류 급증 현상을 줄일 수 있는 가중 딕션너리를 사용하는 희소성 기반 추정 방법을 새롭게 제안한다. 또 이 방법을 두 개의 수신기로 확대 적용하여 두 수신기 간 시간 지연을 추정하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 그리고 백색 잡음 환경에서 제안한 방법을 적용한 것과 일반 상호 상관 알고리즘(Generalized Cross Correlation-Phase transform, GCC-PHAT) 및 일반 주파수 영역 방법을 포함한 제안한 방법을 적용하지 않은 방법들을 서로 비교한다. 그리고 새로 제안한 방법이 다른 비교 대상 알고리즘들보다 약 15 dB에서 약 60 dB의 성능 이득이 있음을 보인다.

The purpose of this paper is to implement a Labview based TFDR Real Time system through the instruments of Pci eXtensions for Instrumentation(PXI). The proposed load impedance measurement algorithm was verified by experiments via the implemented real time system. The TFDR real time system consisted of the reference signal design, signal generation, signal acquisition, algorithm execution and results display parts. To implement real time system, all of the parts wore programmed by the Labview which is one of graphical programming languages. In the application software implemented by the Labview we were able to design a suitable reference signal according to the length and frequency attenuation characteristics of the target cable and controled the arbitrary waveform generator(ZT500PXI) of the signal generation part and the digital storage oscilloscope(ZT430PXI) of the signal acquisition part. By using the TFDR real time system with the terminal resistor on the target cable, we applied to the load impedance measurements. In the proposed load impedance algorithm a normalized time-frequency cross correlation function and a cross time-frequency distribution function was employed to calculate the reflection coefficient and phase difference between the input and the reflected signals.

In this paper, we discuss the design problem and the robustness of space-frequency trellis codes (SFTCs) for multiple input multiple output, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. We find that the channel constructed by the consecutive subcarriers of an OFDM block is a correlated fading channel with the regular correlation function of the number and time delay of the multipaths. By introducing the first-order auto-regressive model, we decompose the correlated fading channel into two independent components: a slow fading channel and a fast fading channel. Therefore, the design problem of SFTCs is converted into the joint design in both slow fading and fast fading channels. We present an improved design criterion for SFTCs. We also show that the SFTCs designed according to our criterion are robust against the multipath time delays. Simulation results are provided to confirm our theoretic analysis.

본 논문에서는 도선상에서 발생하는 결함 위치와 이상 유무를 감지하는 새로운 고분해능 반사측정법인 시간-주파수 영역반사측정법 (TFDR, Time-Frequency Domain Reflectometry)을 제안하였다. 고전적인 반사측정법들은 단지 시간 또는 주파수의 한 영역에서 분석되어져 왔으나, 본 논문에서 제시한 TFDR은 도선의 결함 위치와 이상 유무를 발견하기 위해 과도신호의 시간과 주파수 영역의 정보를 동시에 이용할 수 있는 시간-주파수 분석기법으로 특성화하였다. TFDR의 기준신호 설계는 측정 케이블의 물리적 성질들을 고려하여 주파수 밴드를 결정하며, 도선의 결함감지와 추정은 시간-주파수 상호상관관계 함수에 의해 이루어진다. TFDR 시스템을 이용하여 여러 결함 상태를 가진 실제 coaxial cable (RG-142, RG-400)에 대해 실험하였고 정확성을 입증하기 위해 TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) 장비와 성능을 비교하였다. 본 논문에서는 TFDR이 TDR보다 작은 오차로 결함을 찾아냄을 나타내고 있으며, 측정된 정확도는 TFDR의 오차율이 0.5% 이하로 TDR (54750A/54754A) 장비보다 성능이 월등히 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있다.

기상 레이다에서는 비구름 등에 의한 전자파 반사 신호의 강도뿐만 아니라 풍속을 측정한다. 풍속은 반사 신호의 도플러 주파수를 추정하여 속도정보를 추출하게 된다. 도플러 주파수 추정을 위하여 상관(correlation) 방법이라 불리는 기법을 적용하고 있다. 이 방법은 상대적으로 계산 량이 적어 대부분의 기상 레이다에서 널리 활용되고 있다. 그러나 수신 신호의 스펙트럼이 비대칭형 형태로 나타나는 경우에는 도플러 주파수 추정에 심각한 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 방법을 개선하여 3차 위상추정 모델을 적용함으로서 더 정확한 평균 도플러 주파수 추정이 가능함을 다양한 모의실험 구현을 통하여 확인하였다.

In this paper, we describe a principle of the atomic frequency standard and clock system in VLBI(Very Long Baseline Interferometry). The hydrogen maser is a usual VLBI standard. During VLBI observations, signals emitted by distant sources of radio frequency energy(quasars) are received and recorded at several antennas. At each antenna(VLBI station), a very stable frequency standard(hydrogen maser) provides a reference signal which enables time-tagging to the quasar signals as they are being recorded on magnetic tapes or hard-disk modules. For each VLBl experiment, correlation of the time-tagged recorded information between the participating antennas is used to yield the arrival time differences of any specific quasar radio wave between the antennas. These time differences are used to calculate the relative antennas to each other. In this paper, we also introduce the KVN(Korean VLBI Network) atomic frequency standard and clock system.

CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+ Tregs) have been shown to play a regulatory or suppressive role in the immune response and are possibly relevant to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. In the present study, we attempted to investigate the frequency of CD4+CD25+ Tregs in peripheral blood (PB) of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats during the development of arthritis, to determine whether their frequency is involved in the immunoregulation of this disease. The results showed that normal rats had similar frequencies of CD4+CD25+ Tregs in PB during the experiment time, expressed as a percentage of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells among the CD4+ T lymphocyte population. In contrast, the frequency of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells in CIA rats was found to change during the development of arthritis. In CIA rats, there is a significant negative correlation between the frequency of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells and paw swelling (r=-0.786, p< 0.01). The relationship between the frequency of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T and immune activation was not found in normal rats. During the time course, the frequency of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T was lower in CIA rats than in normal ones. The data suggest that the frequency of PB CD4+CD25+ Tregs may be a promising marker for arthritis activity.

Statement of problem. Osseointegration is important mechanism of dental implant but it is not easy to evaluate. Indirect measurement is non-invasive and clinically applicable but they need more study about correlation between indirect values and degree of osseointegration. Purpose. The aims of this study were to evaluate the coefficient of correlation between indirect measurement and direct measurement under different healing time, and assessment of effect of initial insertion torque to the implant stability. Material and Methods. 20 rabbits received 3 implants on each side of tibia. Three kinds of implants (machined surface implant, Sandblasted with Large grit and Acid etched implant, Resorbable Blast Media treated implant) were used. During the surgery implant insertion torque were measured with $Osseocare^{TM}$. After the 1, 4, 8, 12 weeks of healing time, animals were sacrificed and stability values (Implant Stability Quotient with $Osstell^{TM}$, removal torque with torque gauge) were measured. Results. The Bone quality of rabbit tibia was classified into 2 groups according to the insertion torque. Resonance frequency analysis (ISQ) and removal torque showed positive correlation until $4^{th}$ week (r=0.555, p=0.040). After $8^{th}$ week (r=0.011, p=0.970) the correlation became weak and it turned negative at $12^{th}$ week (r=-0.074, p=0.801). Insertion torque and ISQ showed changing correlation upon the healing time ($1^{st}$ week: r=0.301, p=0.033, $4^{th}$ week: r=-0.429, p=0.018, $8^{th}$ week: r=0.032, p=0.865, $12^{th}$ week: r=-0.398, p=0.029). Insertion torque and removal torque has positive correlation but it was not statistically significant ($1^{st}$ week: r=0.410, p=0.129, $4^{th}$ week: r=0.156, p=0.578, $8^{th}$ week: r=0.236, p=0.398, $12^{th}$ week: r=0.260, p=0.350). Conclusion. In this study, bone quality may affect the degree of osseointegration positively during healing time and correlation between ISQ and degree of osseointegration can be different according to the healing time and bone quality.
