Laser Inertial Navigation System(LINS) consists of Ring Laser Gyroscopes(RLG) and accelerometers. RLG has a lock-in region in which there is zero output for input angular rates less than about 0.1deg/sec. The lock-in region is generated by the imperfect mirrors in RLG. To avoid the lock-in region, a sinusoidal motion called dither motion is applied on RLG. Therefore this dither motion is measured by RLG/accelerometer even if at a stop state. In this situation, the performance on the initial alignment of LINS can be degraded. In this paper, we analyze the performance on the initial alignment of LINS theoretically and experimentally. Analysis results include how dither motion, the pre-filter and the corner frequency in alignment loop affects the performance on the initial alignment of LINS.

This letter presents a measurement methodology of the complex permittivity of liquid using a partially open cavity in narrow band. The partially open cavity (POC) can measure dielectric small changes caused by the temperature variation of the liquid inside the cavity as well. Using the resonance frequency and unloaded quality factor of the proposed POC, the complex permittivity is evaluated. The apertures on the walls of the cavity are designed to circulate the liquid inside to outside of the POC and located at the corner area of the cavity to minimize the disturbance of field distribution at the dominant mode. The results measured by the proposed POC were compared with those by the conventional open-ended probe and Cole-Cole equation. The POC showed better performance in measuring small dielectric constant changes than the open-ended probe.

Small axial fans have become widely used as cooling devices in recent years. Because of their increasing importance, studies have been conducted on ways to improve the performance and reduce the noise of such fans. In this report, a small axial fan with a diameter of 85 mm (a type popularity used in personal computer or workstation) was selected for further examination. The influence on aerodynamic performance and noise of such frame design parameters as blade tip clearance results in a decrease of discrete frequency noise and an increase of broad-spectrum noise. As for the most suitable design refinement in terms of fan efficiency, we found that the treatment of outlet corner roundness and altering spoke skew to the direction counter to that of fan rotation was effective.

The purpose of this study was to explore the cross-linguistic difference in the spectral movement pattern of American English and Korean vowels. Eight American vowels /a/, /e/, /$\varepsilon$/, /i/, /I/, /o/, /u/, and /$\mho$/, and five Korean vowels, /a/, /e/, /i/, /o/ and /u/ in a fricative-vowel environment produced by adult speakers of each language were analyzed. The spectral movement patterns of the first two formant frequency values were measured and analyzed. The results showed that Korean vowels had minimal spectral movement, both in F1 and F2 values, as compared to American English vowels. Moreover, no consistent direction of movement was found in the three corner Korean vowels, while American English vowels showed consistent direction of movement for each vowel of the same phonemic category.

In this paper, we present signal processing procedure and carry out performance analysis of FMCW(Frequency Modulation Continuous Wave) radar for Autonomous Unmanned Vehicle(AUV). In order to detect range profile and velocity of the unknown target, we must implement two step FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) procedure. And the DBF(Digital Beam Forming) algorithm has to be performed to obtain the angle information of the unknown target. To verify the performance of manufactured autonomous unmanned ground vehicle FMCW radar, we use the data of the real corner reflecter target.

A 2D barcode region localization system for the automatic inspection of a long distance logistics objects has been developed. For the successful 2D barcode localization, variance and frequency of the pixel distribution within average 2D barcodes is modeled and the average model of 2D barcode is combined with the corner features detection to localize the final 2D barcode candidates. An automatic 2D barcode localization software was developed with the multiple features mixture method and we tested our system on real camera images of several popular 2D barcode symbologies.

This study analyzes structural stress and fatigue on control arm of automobile under nonuniform load. Maximum equivalent stress at bolt part is shown with 419.1MPa and the corner is deformed with maximum displacement of 1.1628mm. Among 3 cases of nonuniform fatigue loads applying on control arm, 'SAE bracket history' with the severest change of load becomes most unstable but 'Sample history' becomes most stable. In case of 'Sample history' with the average stress of $-10^5MPa$ to $10^5MPa$ and the amplitude stress of 0 MPa to $10^5MPa$, the possibility of maximum damage becomes 3%. This stress state can be shown with 6 times more than the damage possibility of 'SAE bracket history' or 'SAE transmission'. Safety and durability on automobile can be effectively improved by applying the fatigue analysis result on control arm.

This study examined the concentration of combustion gases while considering low ventilation and respiration frequency. A one-quarter-size ISO 9705 room corner test was performed. The concentrations of carbon monoxide and oxygen were measured in each case with the continuous inhalation of combustion gas with low ventilation (2, 6, and 10 LPM) and different respiration frequencies (2 s, 5 s, and infinity). The combustion of a gasoline pool fire in the compartment had a theoretical heat release rate of 5.34 kW. The results show that the deviation of the gas concentrations becomes higher as the low ventilation increases compared to the respiration frequency. In addition, as the respiration frequency increases, the variation in the minimum oxygen concentration is larger than the average value, while in the case of carbon monoxide, the variation in the average value is larger than the maximum value. These results show that the inhalation characteristics of refugees should be considered to investigate fires.

In this paper, a design method for a compact dual-band slot antenna with bent slot is studied. Bent slots are added on the rectangular slot of the proposed antenna for dual-band operation. The rectangular slot is fed by a coaxial cable by placing a rectangular feeding patch inside the slot. When the bent slots are added onto the both corner of the upper side of the rectangular slot symmetrically, a new resonant frequency is created in low frequency because of the increasement of the slot length. A prototype of the proposed dual-band slot antenna operating at 2.45 GHz WLAN band and 4.50-8.30 GHz band including 5GHz WLAN band is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of 30 mm by 30 mm. Experiment results show that the antenna has a desired impedance characteristic with a frequency band of 2.40-2.49 GHz and 4.33-9.85 GHz for an input reflection coefficient < -10 dB.
