This paper will read about a multichannel frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar sensor with switching transmit (TX) antennas is developed at W-band. To achieve a high angular resolution, a uniform linear array consisting of 5 switching-TX and 12 receive (RX) antennas is employed with the digital beamforming technique. The overall radar front-end module comprises a W-band transceiver and TX/RX antennas. A multichannel transceiver module consists of 5 up-conversion and 12 down-conversion channels, where one of the TX channels is sequentially switched ON. For developing transmitter, we developed an HPA (high power amplified) MMIC chip for W-band radar system and fabricated a transmitter module using this chip. In order to develop the W-band transmitter, we analyzed the important antenna transition structure from HPA MMIC line to W/G (Waveguide)antenna via M/S(microstrip) and fabricated it with 5 transmission channels. As a result, the output power of the transmitter was within 1 dB of the error range after analysis and measurement under normal temperature and environmental conditions.

Extraordinary displacement and vibration by heavy vehicle causes passengers to feel mental uncomfortableness and bridge to be damaged. To increase serviceability, the research on the human influence for vibration to happen at the bridge has been performed for a long time in oversea but it does not draw concern relatively in the domestic. The purpose of this research is to develop an evaluation method for vibration serviceability of continuous slab bridge. This research is focused on establishing theoretical method to assess vibration serviceability of bridge considering natural frequency, displacement, and acceleration since the criteria for the human responses to vibration is generally based on frequency band. By examining the characteristics of vibration serviceability which has been assessed with human response curve through field experiments as well as analytical study, the evaluation method of vibration serviceability for continuous slab bridges is proposed. Based on applications to the example of continuous slab bridge, the simple evaluation of vibration serviceability in the paper may be used in the initial step of design practice.

본 논문에서는 포구 속도 측정을 위한 X-band CW(Continuous-Wave)도플러 레이더 구현에 관해 기술하였다. 본 논문에서의 레이더 구성품은 마이크로웨이브 송수신부, 신호 처리부, 전원부이며, 레이더의 운용 및 시험을 위하여 운용/분석 프로그램을 제작하였다. 레이더 송신 주파수는 중심 주파수 $f_0$에서 ${\pm}3\;MHz$ step의 5개 채널로 가변되며, 송신 출력은 25 dBm이다. 레이더의 최소 유효 수신 전력은 -117 dBm이다. 이러한 레이더의 기능은 비행 중인 탄자의 도플러 주파수를 획득하고 정밀 속도 점을 계산하여 최초 포구 이탈 순간의 속도를 추정한다. 레이더의 성능 평가는 현재 화포 시험에 적용되는 기준 장비를 사용하여 155 mm 화포 사격 시험을 통해 삼각대장착, 포신 장착의 두 가지 방법으로 비교 실시하였다. 기준 장비와의 비교 결과, 동등 성능임을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper describes the remote monitoring of breaking ocean waves generated by Typhoon Nabi, whose name means butterfly in Korean, using a marine X-band radar in the Yongho Man, Busan, Korea. The basic purpose of this study is to investigate the dynamic behavior and to estimate the periods of breaking waves across the surf zone from radar image sequences. In these experiments, the land-based radar system imaged the inshore zone of three miles from the coastline to a isobath of 30 meters. The wave period and the dominant wave direction for breaking ocean waves extracted directly from radar image sequences were 157.4 meters and 298 degrees, respectively. However, the result calculated quantitatively by the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) showed that the period of breaking waves was 154.3 meters. The average difference in breaking wave periods between the value extracted by using EBRL (electronic bearing and range line) of radar and the calculated value by CWT was 3.1 meters, showing that the CWT method is also accurate. These results suggest that a marine X-band radar system is a viable method of monitoring the breaking ocean waves.

본 논문에서는 지상에서 시험 중에 발생한 X-대역 원통형 도파관 캐비티 필터의 방전을 소개하고, 원인 분석을 위하여 수행한 전자장 시뮬레이션 결과와 실제 운용궤도에서의 발생 가능성에 대하여 분석한 내용을 기술하였다. 전자장 시뮬레이션을 위하여 상용 툴(FEST3D)을 이용하여 필터를 모델링하고 대역폭 안팎의 주파수 신호(1 W Continuous Wave)를 입력하면서 필터 내부의 전계를 살펴보았다. 이 결과, 대역폭 중심보다는 가장자리(band edge) 주파수 신호가 입력되었을 때 필터 내부의 튜닝 스크류에서 더 강한 전계가 형성되는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 방전 임계 전력을 산출하여 필터에 실제 입력된 전력과 비교해 본 바, 방전 임계값을 초과하는 전력이 필터에 입력되었고 이에 따라 강한 전계가 발생하고 온도가 급격히 상승하여 전기적인 단락으로 이어진 것으로 파악되었다. 추가적인 분석 결과 이 방전은 실제 운용궤도에서는 발생할 가능성이 낮고, band edge 주파수가 필터에 입력되더라도 멀티팩터(multipactor) 현상은 일어나지 않을 것으로 예측되었다. 지상에서 일어날 수 있는 마이크로파 방전에 대한 대책으로서 band edge 신호 입력을 피하거나 전력 레벨을 낮게 입력하는 방법을 제안하였다.

We have been monitoring Sgr A*, the radio source at the center of our galaxy, continuously since G2 encounter was predicted. KaVA is a powerful High resolution imaging array at K and Q band, and it has a excellent uv-coverage for Sgr A*. Together with 1-Gbps recording, our observations have provided high-quality images of Sgr A* at Q-band. Our images reveal a scatter-broadened, elliptical Gaussian structure of the source. We found no significant flux or structural variation of Sgr A* in 2013-2014, which is consistent with recent simulations by Kawashima et al. Continuous monitoring in the coming few years would be able to capture the possible flux increase in the source caused by G2, which will lead to better understanding of the accretion process around supermassive black holes.

In this paper, a frequency synthesizer for X-band FMCW radars is proposed. Some X-band FMCW radars have been used as a level sensor for tanker ship and the resolution of the level sensor may be mainly depend on linearity of frequency sweep. For a linear frequency sweep. the proposed synthesizer employs a phase-locked loop using prescalars and a high speed digital PLL chip. The measured results show that the linear frequency sweep range is from 10 GHz to 11 GHz and the output power of the synthesizer is minium 7 dBm. and the phase noise is about -80 dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset from 11 GHz.

In Lamb wave detection of damages in smart structures, the excitation pulse is usually designed as a narrow band burst wave for the convenience of analysis and recognition. However, the wideband excitation can excite more modes in plate/shell structure and thus provides extra information for changes of the structure. This paper presents a method that can extract information in wideband Lamb wave signals. By transforming the detected signals into various sub-frequency band, the measured signal can be converted to its equivalences of narrow band excitations, therefore, the information in different frequency bands can be acquired from a single test and in the same time the complicity of wideband signal can be simplified. Some test results are provided to verify this method.

The variation in microstructure and texture during continuous annealing was examined in a series of 1.6% Mn-0.1% Cr-0.3% Mo-0.005% B steels with carbon contents in the range of 0.010 to 0.030%. It was found that microstructure of hot band consisted of ferrite and pearlite as a consequence of high coiling temperature, and eutectoid carbon content was between 0.011% and 0.016%. Martensite ranged in volume fraction from 1.5% to 4.0% when annealed at $820{\circ}C$ according to the typical continuous annealing cycle. The critical martensite content for the continuous yielding was about 4% from stress-strain curves. The continuous yielding was obtained in the 0.030% carbon steel and 0.010% to 0.020% carbon steels revealed some yield point elongation ranging from 0.8% to 2.2% in as-annealed conditions. Higher tensile strength in the higher carbon steel is due to both increase in the martensite volume fraction and ferrite grain refinement. Decreasing the carbon content to 0.01% strengthened the intensities of ${\gamma}$-fiber textures, resulting in the increase in the $r_m$ value, which was caused by the lower volume fraction of martensite. The higher carbon steels showed the lower $r_m$ value of about 1.0.
