Spectral gain variation characteristics of the silica-based erbium doped fiber amplifiers is investigated in the 1545-1557 nm wavelength region. For a given length of the erbium doped fiber, the gain($G_0$) with minimum spectral gain variation is uniquely determined. The spectral gain imbalance DG is nearly proportional to the difference between G0 and the operating gain(G) with the proportional constant of 0.1-0.2 dB/dB. For the gain flattened EDFA at the input power of -20 dBm/ch. and the gain of 21 dB, the output power and the optical signal to noise variations after 12 cascaded EDFAs were 5 dB and 3 dB, respectively.

The 6-port phase correlator consists of one in-phase power divider and three 3-dB 90-degree phase difference power dividers, and is mainly used in a demodulation circuit that determines the phase of an input signal. This paper proposes the wideband 6-port phase correlator that consists of an in-phase power divider using a wideband 2:1 impedance transformer with three 37.5-Ω coaxial cables, and a 3-dB 90-degree phase difference power divide using Wireline. The proposed wideband phase correlator fabricated at a center frequency of 1000MHz has the value of the input reflection coefficient(S₁₁ and S₂₂) -14dB or less in the frequency range of 640~1270MHz. Also, the signal transmission characteristic(S_i1), from the in-phase power divider input port to four output ports, has the amplitude of -6.5±0.6dB and the phase error of within ±3.4°, and the signal transmission characteristic(S_i2), from the 90 degree phase difference power divider input port to four output ports, has the amplitude of -6.1±0.6dB and the phase error of within ±6.2°.

The increase of road traffic niose in residential area has been considered to be a serious environmental problem to deteriorate a living condition. The understanding of noise environment in multiple family housing is needed for noise reduction. This study attempts to find out the characteristics of noise environment. For this purpose, the field survey has been carried out to investigate the noise environment(sound level, quality of sound) and the residents' responses(noiseness, annoyance) for noise environment based on 173 households living in 3 apartment compounds built in Pusan according to site location. The major findings are as follows : 1. The sound levels by road traffic noise were measured by dB(A) and dB(Lin). The sound levels were : 77.0dB(A), 86.6dB(Lin) in D-Apt, 73.3dB(A), 82.6dB(Lin) in K-Apt, and 59.1dB(A), 74.6dB(Lin) in M-Apt. Especially, the difference between dB(A) and dB(Lin) was very big in the cae of M-Apt with a barriers for traffic noise reduction. 2. The internal sound levels were shown the soudn attenuation by horizontal distance and by opening or shuting condition of windows.

A received signal in mobile communication environments exhibits variation in both amplitude and phase due to the multipath fading. Therefore we analyzed the performance of DS/CDMA(Direct Sequence/code Division Multiple Access) DPSK(Differential Phase Shift Keying) system for the variations of PLL(Phase Locked Loop) gain with Tikhonov probability density function, assuming that the phase difference between transmitter and receiver signals is phase error. As a result, it is discovered that the performance of system could be improved by the control of PLL gain in compared with the DPSK system which does not consider the phase error. If the PLL gain is 1dB, the difference of two systems is 4.8dB and 0.4dB at 7dB. and if 30dB, it coincides. From above, it

This paper studies an experimental analysis of the impulse noise of K2 rifle when its bullet passes through the large tube(length 1.84m, outer diameter 50cm, glass wool & steel). In experiment, the characteristics of the sound of shooting were different according to the way of shooting; the results of the experiment are given below. First of all, the shooting sound was lower in single-shot shooting, when compared to 3rds burst-shot shooting, difference averaging 2.8dB, 4.0dB at maximum. In short, the difference is minuscule. Secondly, the sound of the K2 rifle was diminished when shot in a tube, ranging from 2.7dB to 15.4dB, averaging 8.2dB. Thirdly, the shooting sound of the K2 rifle was diminished as the insertion depth deepened with formulas given in Fig. 5, 6. Fourthly, basic data for excluding sound of the shooting were presented. Lastly, the characteristics of the shooting sound could be equally used as a basic material for developing marksmanship and sharp-shooting detection device.

In this paper, a new type microstrip directional coupler has been designed and a 3dB coupler has been fabricated and measured. The measured and analysed results are agree well each other except difference of 1 dB insertion loss. There are two eigenmodes, e.g. even and odd mode in coupled microstrip lines. By using the difference between these two eigenmodes phase constants, the directional coupler can be designed by adjusting coupling length, which has a desired coupler has a disdvantage that its coupling length is longer than conventional oe, but it may be used as a useful coupler in millimeter wave range. And it has the merit of less discontinuity effects, becuase it is simpler than the other couplers in structure.

In this paper, two types of BPF(Band Pass Filter) which are hair-pin and interdigital have been designed for millimeter-wave application using two types of material which are LCP(Liquid Crystal Polymer) and PTFE(Polytetrafluoroethylene) and also, their performances such as bandwidth, insertion loss, and in-band flatness are compared. The proposed BPF are designed as third-order filters, and their pass band is from 26.5 GHz to 27.3 GHz. Interdigital BPF using PTFE substrate has most wide -3 dB S21 bandwidth of 7.8 GHz and hair-pin BPF using LCP substrate has most narrow -3 dB S21 bandwidth among the proposed four BPF. For in-band insertion loss, hair-pin BPF using PTFE substrate achieves low insertion loss better than -0.667 dB, and hair-pin BPF using LCP substrate exhibits relatively high insertion loss among the proposed four BPF better than -0.937 dB. However, the maximum difference in insertion loss performance among the proposed four BPF is 0.27 dB, which is too small to negligible. For in-band flatness, interdigital BPF using PTFE substrate shows greatest performance of 0.017 dB, and hair-pin BPF using LCP substrate exhibits the lowest performance of 0.07 dB. There are tiny difference in in-band flatness performance of 0.053 dB. As a results, it is considered that the BPF using LCP substrate can derive the performances similar to that of the BPF using PTFE substrate in Millimeter-wave band.

The speech privacy of closed office rooms located in a university campus was measured and assessed in terms of SPC (Speech Privacy Class) values. The measurements of two quantities, the LD (Level Difference) between a source and a receiving room, and the background noise level ($L_b$) at the receiving room were carried out in 5 rooms located in 3 different buildings in the university campus. Each of the 5 rooms was adjacent to both offices and corridors through walls. The TL (Transmission Loss) between the source and the receiver room was also measured to compare the difference of two standard methods, ASTM E2836-10 and KS F 2809. The present results show that the speech privacy of the 5 office rooms is not met the requirement for a minimum SPC values of 70. A minimum LD value of 41 dB between the source and the receiver room should be achieved for having a SPC value of 70 when the mean measured value of $L_b$ at the receiving room is 29.2 dB. That is, the TL(avg) value averaged over the octave bands from 160 Hz to 5000 Hz between the source and the receiver room should be or greater than 40 dB. The most important architectural factor influencing the LD value is the presence of openings, such as doors, and windows, on the adjacent walls between the source and receiving room. Therefore, if the opening of the adjacent wall is replaced by an opening with high sound insulation, the appropriate SPC value of the research and office rooms can be achieved.

Holmberg's diameters of galaxies $D_{h}$ were obtained from Holmberg catalogue. The difference between Holmberg's diameter and de Vaucouleurs' face-on diameter is campared with the results of Heidmann et al. The difference obtained in this paper is smaller than that of Heidmann at al. Also, the correlation between $D_{h}$ and $D_{v}$ was obtained for each type in de Vaucouleurs' classification of galaxies. It shows that $D_{h}$ is overestimated that $D_{v}$.
