The UV radiometer payload was launched successfully from the west coastal area of Korea Peninsula aboard KSR-III on 28, Nov 2002. KSR-III was the Korean third generation sounding rocket and was developed as intermediate step to larger space launch vehicle with liquid propulsion engine system. UV radiometer onboard KSR-III consists of UV and visible band optical phototubes to measure the direct solar attenuation during rocket ascending phase. For UV detection, 4 channel of sensors were installed in electronics payload section and each channel has 255, 290, 310nm center wavelengths, respectively. 450nm channel was used as reference for correction of the rocket attitude during the flight. Transmission characteristics of all channels were calibrated precisely prior to the flight test at the Optical Lab. in KARI (Korea Aerospace Research Institute). During a total of 231s flight time, the onboard data telemetered to the ground station in real time. The ozone column density was calculated by this telemetry raw data. From the calculated column density, the vertical ozone profile over Korea Peninsula was obtained with sensor calibration data. Our results had reasonable agreements compared with various observations such as ground Umkhr measurement at Yonsei site, ozonesonde at Pohang site, and satellite measurements of HALOE and POAM. The sensitivity analysis of retrieval algorithm for parameters was performed and it was provided that significant error sources of the retrieval algorithm.

The purpose of this thesis is to reduce of error for source location through acoustic emission(AE) signal, generated elastic wave from crack growth to leak for facility diagnosis. Especially, in order to overcome noise from original signal, this paper proposed enhancement of source location by using noise reduction based on wavelet transform. To evaluate actual performance in experiments, Pencil Lead Break is used crack signal source on the aluminum plate and drain valve of air compressor is used as substitute pressure vessel to generate leak signal. In signal processing, wavelet shrinkage and soft threshold are used to discriminate signal source and then source location techniques have been effectively used with group velocity using material property and time difference between sensor using cross correlation. Source location for crack and leak test have some difference, but the result show that improved 30% with a average length within 10.46mm in crack test and improved 2% compare with average filter in leak test when we applied wavelet transform.

A novel capacitance deviation-to-time interval converter based on ramp-integration is presented. It consists of two current mirrors, two schmitt triggers, and control digital circuits by the upper and lower sides, symmetrically. Total circuit has been with discrete components. The results show that the proposed converter has a linearity error of less than 1% at the time interval(pulse width) over a capacitance deviation from 295 pF to 375 pF. A capacitance deviation of 40pF and time interval of 0.2 ms was measured for sensor capacitance of 335 pF. Therefore, the high-resolution can be known by counting the fast and stable clock pulses gated into a counter for time interval. The application of a novel capacitance deviation-to time interval converter to a digital humidity controller is also presented. The presented circuit is insensitive to the capacitance difference in disregard of voltage source or temperature deviation. Besides the accuracy, it features the small MOS device count integrable onto a small chip area. The circuit is thus particularly suitable for the on-chip interface.

When the sensor geometry is poor, the user position estimate obtained by of GN (Gauss-Newton) method is often diverged in radio navigation. In other to avoid divergence problem QCLS (Quadratic Correction Least Square) method using TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) measurements is introduced, but the estimation error is somewhat large. This paper presents the modified QCLS method using weighted least square. Since the weighting matrix is influenced by the unknown user position, two-step approach is employed in the proposed method. The weighting matrix is estimated in the first step using least square, and then find user position is obtained using weighted least square. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed method is superior to the conventional QCLS all over the workspace.

Ionic Polymer-Metal Composite (IPMC) consisting of soft membrane plated by platinum electrode layers on both surfaces generates electric energy when subjected to various mechanical stimuli. The paper proposes a circuit model that describes the physical composition of IPMC to predict the voltage generation characteristic corresponding to bending motion. The parameter values in the model are identified to minimize the RMS error between the real and simulated outputs. Following the design of IPMC circuit model, the state observer of the model is designed by using pole placement technique which improves the model accuracy. State observer design technique is also applied to find the inverse model which estimates the input bending angles from the output voltage data. The results show that the inverse model estimates input bending angles fairly well enough for the further applications of IPMC not only as an energy harvester but also as a bending sensor.

This paper presents the design of a frequency measurement device using ADC, EP2AGX FPGA and STM32 processor to accurately measure the frequency of a broadband high frequency signal. The ADC device used in this paper has a sampling frequency of 250 MSPS and a processing frequency bandwidth of 100 MHz. Due to its high sampling frequency, it is difficult to process in ordinary computers or processors, so we implemented the frequency measurement algorithm using the Altra EP2AGX FPGA. The measured frequency is sent to the direction detection controller in real time and fused with the phase signal to calculate the incident azimuth angle of the high frequency signal. The designed frequency measurement device is about 0.2 Mhz in frequency measurement error and 30% less than Anaren DFD-x, which is considered to contribute greatly to the design of radio monitoring and direction detection device.

The purpose of this paper is to implement a smart touch image output system based on ICT. The image output system here uses a pen-touch type screen coordinate recognition type to minimize the error because there is a difference in the resolution of the motion pattern between the image screen and the actual image using the image sensing reaction sensor. To do so, we built a smart image output system that can output image data by using ICT based technology and can be operated remotely without a PC, laptop, monitor, keyboard and mouse by using wireless method and smart touch function instead of the existing wired method. The result of this study is that the image can be output only if there is a wall, and the pen can be operated on the output image without the screen.

Digital vessels can occur large a disaster at sea because vessels in fire and collision in case of certain unforeseen circumstances. In this paper, We propose digital vessel context monitoring system through risk analysis. We propose environment information analysis system using wireless sensor that have to acquire marine environment and context of marine digital vessel. For conducting simulation, we chose 300 data sets to train the neural network. As a result, we obtained about 96% accuracy for fire risk context and we obtained 88.7% accuracy for body of vessel risk context. To improve the accuracy of the system, we implement a FEC (Forward Error Correction) block. We implemented digital vessel context monitoring system that transmitted to diagnosis result in CDMA.

In this paper, we propose a new golf putting training system which we call "X-Putt". X-Putt analyzes putting strokes by measuring putter face angle and path. To do this, we improved the sonar-based localization scheme used by previous localization techniques. As a result, X-Putt can measure putter's location within the error range, ${\pm}0.9cm$ and putter face angle within ${\pm}1.5^{\circ}$. Additionally, we built an user application that has an easy-to-use interface for analyzing the strokes after training.
