In this study, we will implement a flexible formant analysis and synthesis system. In the analysis part, the two-channel (i.e., speech & EGG signals) approach is investigated for accurate estimation of formant information. The EGG signal is used for extracting exact pitch information that is needed for the pitch synchronous LPC analysis and closed phase LPC analysis. In the synthesis part, Klatt formant synthesizer is modified so that the user can change synthesis parameters arbitarily. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the two-channel analysis method over the one-channel(speech signal only) method in analysis as well as in synthesis. The implemented system is expected to be very helpful for studing the effects of synthesis parameters on the quality of synthetic speech and for the development of Korean text-to-speech(TTS) system with the formant synthesis method.

In this paper, we verify the channel synthesis and decomposition of polar codes using successive cancellation decoding algorithm over binary discrete memoryless symmetric channel by modifying Arikan's algebraic formular on encoding and decoding of polar codes. In addition, we found that information bits are sent by efficiently consisting of polar codes with their size $2^n$ through polarizing matrix ${G_2}^{{\otimes}n}$ over binary discrete memoryless symmetric channel W. Expecially, if $N{\geq}2$, the complexity of Arikan's encoding and decoding for polar codes is O($Nlog_2N$). Furthermore, we found that polar codes are one of the solution to the challenging problems for the multipoint communication.

$K^+$ efflux through a certain type of $K^+$ channels causes the change of membrane potential and leads to cAMP synthesis in the transmembrane cell signaling for the initiation of sperm motility in the salmonid fishes. The addition of $Ca^{2+}$ conferred motility to the trout sperm that were immobilized by external $K^+$ and other alkaline metals, $Rb^+$ and $Cs^{2+}$, suggesting the participation of external $Ca^{2+}$ in the initiation of sperm motility. L-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel blockers such as nifedipine, nimodipine, and FS-2 inhibited the motility, but N-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocker, w-conotoxin MvIIA, did not. On the other hand, the membrane hyperpolarization and cAMP synthesis were suppressed by $Ca^{2+}$ channel blockers, nifedipine, and trifluoroperazine. Furthermore, these suppressions were relieved by the addition of $K^+$ ionophore, valinomycin. Inhibitors of calmodulin, such as W-7, trifluoperazine, and calrnidazol-C1, inhibited the sperm motility, membrane hyperpolarization, and cAMP synthesis. The results suggest that $Ca^{2+}$ influx through $Ca^{2+}$ channels that are sensitive to specific $Ca^{2+}$ channel blockers and calmodulin participate in the changes of membrane potential, leading to synthesis of cAMP in the cell signaling for the initiation of trout sperm motility.

A novel high channel efficiency transceiver based on a fast acquisition frequency synthesizer has been designed. The direct digital synthesis (DDS) technique is applied and a simple memory look-up table is incorporated to expedite channel acquisition. The technique simplifies the frequency control process in the transceiver and thus reduces the channel switching time. As a result, the channel efficiency is improved. The designed transceiver is ideal for frequency hopping mobile communication applications.

Radar receiving echo signal provides target information - range, velocity and position by signal magnitude and Doppler shift, which are determined by target reflection characteristics and target maneuver. Target angle error is extracted from the magnitude ratio of difference channel to sum channel. In this paper, we introduce a radar Return Signal Simulation Equipment(RSSE) which is implemented for the purpose of performance analysis and evaluation of phased array multi-function radar(MFR). It generates multi-target environment with jamming signals using MC-DDS (Multi-Channel Direct Digital Synthesis), and has scalability by using the efficient hardware configuration. The performance of the developed RSSE has been evaluated under various test environments. Especially, we proved that required target detection performance is achieved by RSP(Radar Signal Processor) interfaced RSSE configuration.

The synthesis and biological evaluation of 1-heteroarylmethyl 1,4-diazepane derivatives as potential T-type calcium channel blockers is described. In this study, we have identified the compound 21i exhibiting the most potent T-type calcium channel blocking activity with $IC_{50}$ value of 0.20 ${\mu}M$, which is superior to that of mibefradil.

This paper describes the synthesis method for an adaptive SLB channel, which is robust to interference in the ULA radar system. The SLB channel based on the spatial DLC can be synthesized simply and is effective in blanking the signal coming from the sidelobe. We combined it with adaptive beamforming, which removes the strong interference using its correlation matrix. The adaptive SLB channel would suppress the interference below the noise, so it has good performance in an interference environment. This research will be applicable to planar array systems.

US NWS/NETWORK is applied for the analysis of the flood of July 11-15, 1981 through the Goan-Indogyo reach of the Han River. For the flood hydrography synthesis of the lateral inflows from the major tributaries into the main reach the Cleak method is employed. NETWORK coupled with the Clark method of hydrography synthesis simulated with a fair accuracy the oberved flood hydrograph at the downstream boundary of the routing reach. The dffect of SCS runoff curve number for fributary flood synthesis is evaluated. The characteristics of the station variations and time variations of the flood discharges in the reach is also analyzed.
