In this study, a magnetic sensor to make use of eddy current was developed to detect the weld seam of butt joint in the sheet metal arc welding. This system consist of the sensor device for detecting the weld line, the servo control device for driving the weld torch movement and the control unit. A signal processing was applied to smooth the output signal of the sensor. The weld joint was determined by using a 1st order differential method. To improve tracking accuracy of the system, moving average method which has an effect of proportional and weighted integral control was applied to a series of the weld joint positions obtained above. The weld line for tracking was generated by using data regeneration algorithm. Based on these results, each servo motor was controlled by pulse generator. From experimental results, it was revealed that this system has excellent detecting ability for weld line and seam tracking ability.

As the demand for high-speed and wirelesstransmission of information is rapidly increasing, spectrally efficient digiral radio modulation and demodulation scheme is preferred. In this paper, we have studied the signal generation, demodulation and performance evaluation of spectrally efficient QAM signals in a wireless channel environment. We propose differential modulation and demodulation scheme for QAM in rayleigh fading channel. First, formulas for theerror probability of proposed QAM scheme are derived over QWGN channel. Second, we evaluate the performance of the proposed QAM scheme in rayleigh fading environment through computer simulation, and confirm that it shows much better performance compared to that of conventional QAM scheme.

Differential unitary space-time modulation (DUSTM) has emerged as a promising technique to obtain spatial diversity without intractable channel estimation. This paper presents a study of the application of DUSTM on multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems with frequency-selective fading channels. From the view of a correlation analysis between subcarriers of OFDM, we obtain the maximum achievable diversity of DUSTM on MIMO-OFDM systems. Moreover, an efficient implementation strategy based on subcarrier reconstruction is proposed, which transmits all the signals of one signal matrix in one OFDM transmission and performs differential processing between two adjacent OFDM blocks. The proposed method is capable of obtaining both spatial and multipath diversity while reducing the effect of time variation of channels to a minimum. The performance improvement is confirmed by simulation results.

In this paper, the composite BiCMOS transistor which combines a bipolar transistor and a MOS transistor in a cascade type, is analyzed in terms of I-V characteristics and small signal equivalent circuit. As a result, it has a larger driving capability than MOS transistor and a more extended rante of input voltage than bipolar transistor. Next, a BiCMOS differential amplifier as its application example is designed and compared with the CMOS one and the bipolar one. It increases the driving capability of the CMOS differential amp and improves the linear operation region of the bipolar differential amp.

Asbestos exposure has been known to contribute to several lung diseases named asbestosis, malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer, but the disease-related molecular and cellular mechanisms are still largely unknown. To examine the effects of asbestos exposure in human bronchial epithelial cells at gene level, the global gene expression profile was analyzed following chrysotile treatment. The microarray results revealed differential gene expression in response to chrysotile treatment. The genes up- and down-regulated by chrysotile were mainly involved in processes including metabolism, signal transduction, transport, development, transcription, immune response, and other functions. The differential gene expression profiles could provide clues that might be used to understand the pathological mechanisms and therapeutic targets involved in chrysotile-related diseases.

In this paper, optical noise is reduced by a differential detector, which is composed of a beam splitter and two photodiodes whose spectral responses are different each other. In this configuration, the automatic gain control circuit is not required for noise cancellation because the noise intensities at the two photodiodes are kept equal by a beam splitter. The signal to noise ratio in a differential detector with a beam splitter was improved to be 14 ㏈ higher than in a single photodiode with optical filtering.

We have analyzed the amplification of a signal wave in the optical parametric interactions of the pump, signal, and idler waves in planar waveguides, with the pump wave being Cerenkov radiation. Based on the coupled-mode theory, we have derived the first-order coupled-mode differential equations for no pump depletion. The equations can easily be solved numerically. The approximate analytical and numerical solutions of the equations show that the signal wave can be amplified parametrically.

In this paper, we suggested the method of signal integrity for noises and distortion signal generated between high speed information transmission modules by external effects. Suggested method for signal integrity of impedance matching to remove transmission line distortion, We divided the impedance matching between the transmitter and the receiver module with the single line and differential line methods after confirmed the improvement of signal distortions through ADS simulation. the experimental results indicated that it is possible to keep signal integrity without signal distortions by matching the optimal termination impedance which are considering the signal delay of transmission line for using the high-performance modules.

In this paper, optical noise effect is reduced by using the loss characteristics of plastic fibers in an optical wireless system. The attenuation coefficient of a plastic fiber for the signal is different from that f3r the noise light, and the length difference between two fibers to the 2PD's behaves like a discriminative element. It is possible to eliminate the optical noise effect and detect only the signal without optical filters. The signal to noise ratio in a differential detector using fibers was 9.7 dB higher than in a single photodiode without optical fiber.
