  • 본 논문은 현재 국외기술에 의존하고 있는 광센서 선형감지기를 이용한 화재감지시스템인 분산온도감지(DTS) 시스템을 국산화 기술로 개발하기 위한 연구이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 광섬유 내에서 발생되는 빛의 역산란광 중 온도감지에 주로 사용되는 라만산란광의 전기적 신호파형을 오실로스코프를 이용하여 분석하였다. 측정결과 Stokes 신호파형은 온도가 상승해도 변화량이 거의 없었으나, 온도에 민감한 anti-Stokes 신호파형은 상대적으로 그 값이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 라만산란광을 이용하여 화재를 감지할 수 있는 광중계기 및 광수신기로 구성된 광센서 선형 화재감지시스템인 K-DTS 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발된 K-DTS 시스템에 대하여 차동식 및 정온식 감도시험기를 이용하여 차동식 및 정온식 감지기로서의 감도시험을 진행해 본 결과 형식승인 기준을 만족하고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 개발된 K-DTS 시스템의 성능평가를 위해 국외에서 수입되어 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 S-DTS 시스템과 성능비교실험을 진행하였다. 모형터널을 이용한 성능실험결과 화재감지위치 및 화재온도 측정에서 유사한 성능을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 대형 구조물의 넓은 영역에 분포된 변형률이나 온도를 모니터링하기 위하여 광섬유 FBG(fiber Bragg grating:브래그 격자) 탐촉자를 사용하는 광섬유 FBG 센서가 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 한개의 라인에 다수의 FBG 탐촉자를 사용하기 위하여 시간 분할 다중화와 파장 분할 다중화를 복합화한 다중화 기술을 제안한다. 일반적으로 광섬유 FBG 센서는 기본적으로 파장 분할 다중화 방식으로 작동되므로 본 연구에서는 시간 분할 다중화에 대한 특성을 고찰한다. 광섬유에 직렬로 연결된 FBG 탐촉자들의 반사도에 따른 반사광의 세기와 그 위치를 이론적으로 계산하고 실험결과와 비교한다. 이론적인 계산에 따르면 5개의 FBG 탐촉자의 반사도를 적절하게 선정함에 의하여 한개의 광섬유 라인에 설치하여 각각의 FBG 탐촉자에서 되돌아오는 반사광의 세기를 균일하게 얻을 수 있음을 확인한다. 이러한 결과를 실험으로 확인하기 위하여 반사도가 13%, 16%, 25%, 40%, 80%인 FBG 탐촉자를 제작하고, 시간 영역에서 각각의 FBG 탐촉자에서 되돌아오는 반사 신호를 관찰한다. 실험 결과는 신호잡음의 영향으로 이론적인 결과와 차이가 있지만, 복합 다중화 기법의 사용 가능성을 증명하는 5개의 FBG 탐촉자의 반사 신호를 모두 보인다.

  • 구조물의 주요 부재들은 임의의 부분에 과대 하중이 작용하거나 반복 하중을 받아서 재료가 열화되면 균열이 발생한다. 이러한 균열은 구조물의 안전성을 평가할 수 있는 중요한 인자이며 균열의 진전 여부가 구조물의 안전성을 평가하기 위한 중요한 지표로 사용할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구조물의 기존 균열이 진전하는지를 감시하기 위하여 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서를 개발하였다. 이 센서 시스템은 탐촉자, 파장제어 광원부 및 광수신부, 그리고 가진부로 구성된다. 센서 탐촉자 부분은 광섬유 브래그 격자 소자만으로 구성된다. 파장제어 광원부는 전류공급회로와 DFB(distributed feedback) 레이저 다이오드로 구성되고 파장 제어 회로는 레이저 다이오드의 온도를 바꾸어 파장을 제어한다. 또한 가진부는 강체 낙하구에 의하여 구현한다. 이렇게 구성된 센서의 성능은 알루미늄판에 임의의 균열을 만들고 센서를 작동시키면서 출력 신호를 검토하면서 확인하였다. 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서의 출력 신호의 변화는 균열 길이 변화에 따라서 크게 변화되어 나타나므로 균열 진전 탐지 가능성이 충분함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Base Station Cooperation (BSC) has been a promising technique for combating the Inter-Cell Interference (ICI) by exchanging information through a high-speed optical fiber back-haul to increase the diversity gain. In this paper, we propose a novel pilot symbol assisted data fusion scheme for distributed Uplink BSC (UBSC) based on Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed scheme exploits the pre-defined pilot symbols as the sample of transmitted symbols to constitute a sub-optimal Weight Calculation (WC) model. To circumvent the non-linear programming problem of the proposed sub-optimal model, DE algorithm is employed for searching the proper fusion weights. Compared with the existing equal weights based soft combining scheme, the proposed scheme can adaptively adjust the fusion weights according to the accuracy of cooperative information, which remains the relatively low computational complexity and back-haul traffic. Performance analysis and simulation results show that, the proposed scheme can significantly improve the system performance with the pilot settings of the existing standards.

  • Recent advances in room-temperature, visible and near-IR diode laser sources for telecommunication, optical data storage applications are enabling combustion diagnostics system based on diode laser absorption spectroscopy. In contrast to some traditional sampling-based gas-sensing instruments, tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy system is advantageous because of their non-invasive nature, high sensitivity, fast response time and real-time measurement capability. So, combined with fiber-optics and high sensitive detection strategies, compact and portable sensor system arc now appearing for a variety of applications. The objective of this research is to take advantage of distributed feed-back diode laser and measure the $CO_{2}$ concentration (by using direct absorption and wavelength modulation spectroscopy methods). In addition to survey spectra of $CO_{2}$ bands and spectroscopic parameters between 1565 and 1579 run were computed at temperatures between 296 and 1200 K (by using HITRAN 2000 database). It experimentally found out that the features of direct absorption and wavelength modulation spectroscopy methods.

  • In this paper, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform for MMCs is established, which connects a real time digital simulator (RTDS) and a designed MMC controller with optical fiber. In this platform, the converter valves are simulated with a small time step of 2.5 microsecond in the RTDS, and multicore technology is implemented for the controller so that the parallel valve control is distributed between different cores. Therefore, the designed controller can satisfy the requirements of real-time control. The functions of the designed platform and the rationality for the designed controller are verified through experimental tests. The results show that different modulation modes and various control strategies can be implemented in the simulation platform and that each control objective can been tracked accurately and with a fast dynamic response.

  • We designed and fabricated a semiconductor optical amplifier-integrated dual-mode laser (SOA-DML) as a compact and widely tunable continuous-wave terahertz (CW THz) beat source, and a pin-photodiode (pin-PD) integrated with a log-periodic planar antenna as a CW THz emitter. The SOA-DML chip consists of two distributed feedback lasers, a phase section for a tunable beat source, an amplifier, and a tapered spot-size converter for high output power and fiber-coupling efficiency. The SOA-DML module exhibits an output power of more than 15 dBm and clear four-wave mixing throughout the entire tuning range. Using integrated micro-heaters, we were able to tune the optical beat frequency from 380 GHz to 1,120 GHz. In addition, the effect of benzocyclobutene polymer in the antenna design of a pin-PD was considered. Furthermore, a dual active photodiode (PD) for high output power was designed, resulting in a 1.7-fold increase in efficiency compared with a single active PD at 220 GHz. Finally, herein we successfully show the feasibility of the CW THz system by demonstrating THz frequency-domain spectroscopy of an ${\alpha}$-lactose pellet using the modularized SOA-DML and a PD emitter.

  • In the past, there was a theory that influenza wasn't transmitted directly from birds but was infected to humans via swains. Recently, molecular level research has progressed, and it was confirmed that the avian influenza virus can directly infected to human lung and intestinal epithelial cells. Three pandemicsin the past 100 years were also infected to humans directly from birds. In view of such scientific background, we are developing a method for screening sick birds by monitoring the physiological characteristics of birds in a contactless manner with sensors. Here, the movement of respiratory muscles and abdominal muscles under autonomic innervation was monitored using a magnet and Hall sensor sewn on the thoracic wall, and other multimedia devices. This paper presents and discusses the results of experiments involving continuous periodic noise discovered during flight experiments with a data logger mounted on a Japanese pheasant from 2012 to 2015. A brief summary is given as the below: 1. Magnet and Hall sensor sewn to the left and right chest walls, bipolar electrocardiograms between the thoracic walls, posterior thoracic air sac pressure, angular velocity sensors sewn on the back and hips, and optical reflection of LEDs (blue and green) from the skin of the hips allow observation of periodic vibrations(fasciculations) in the waves. No such analysis has been reported before. 2. These fasciculations are presumed to be derived from muscle to maintain and control air sac pressure. 3. Since each muscle fiber is spatially Gaussian distributed from the sympathetic nerve, the envelope is assumed to plot a Gaussian curve. 4. Since avian trunk muscles contract periodically at all time, we assume that the sympathetic nerve dominates in their control. 5. The technique of sewing a magnet to the thoracic wall and measuring the strength of the magnetic field with a Hall sensor can be applied to screen for early stage of avian influenza, with a sensor attached to the chicken enclosure.

  • The purpose of this study suggest the fashion of communication for 21th century fashion. Especially, Memphis fashion have the possibility of communicating through objects. The results of this study are as follows : First, Memphis idea is to make design into a sophisticated, conscious instrument of communication. As the Memphis fashion points out : design is an extraordinary tool for communicating because its intrinsic characteristic is the fact that it is used and distributed anyway, even without communicating anything. The Memphis fashion is trying to connect design and industry to the broader culture within which fashion moves. Second, Using different materials provides not only new structural Possibilities. but - above all - new semantic and metaphoric possibilities, order modes of communication, another language, and even a change of direction, broadening of perspective, appropriation and digestion of new values and the concomitant rejection of traditional structures that renewal always Involves. The memphis fashion works on the fabric of contemporaneity (lurex yarn, latex, chrome metal and steel) and contemporaneity means computers, electronics, a new awareness of the body. mass exercise and tourism. Third, color in Memphis has never been an ideological vehicle. As with decoration it is born tilth the design, forming an integral part of the structure. It alters the objects molecules. It works as a mass, as an intrinsic feature of a certain form and volume. The Memphis fashion was realized the introduction of ultramodern science into such experimental and creative implementation as optical motive, brilliancy of colour of electronic medium in audition to metallic fabric and high technical synthetic fiber. A color tilth pop culture connotations that weaver between technological allusions and Mcdonald's.

  • A specially designed tendon, which is proposed by embedding an FBG sensor into the center king cable of a 7-wire strand tendon, was applied to monitor the prestress force and load transfer of ground anchor. A series of tensile tests and a model pullout test were performed to verify the feasibility of the proposed smart tendon as a measuring sensor of tension force and load transfer along the tendon. The smart tendon has proven to be very effective for monitoring prestress force and load transfer by measuring the strain change of the tendon at the free part and the fixed part of ground anchor, respectively. Two 11.5 m long proto-type ground anchors were made simply by replacing a tendon with the proposed smart tendon and prestress forces of each anchor were monitored during the loading-unloading step using both FBG sensor embedded in the smart tendon and the conventional load cell. By comparing the prestress forces measured by the smart tendon and load cell, it was found that the prestress force monitored from the FBG sensor located at the free part is comparable to that measured from the conventional load cell. Furthermore, the load transfer of prestressing force at the tendon-grout interface was clearly measured from the FBGs distributed along the fixed part. From these pullout tests, the proposed smart tendon is not only expected to be an alternative monitoring tool for measuring prestress force from the introducing stage to the long-term period for health monitoring of the ground anchor but also can be used to improve design practice through determining the economic fixed length by practically measuring the load transfer depth.
