A phase-locked loop (PLL) is described which is operable from 0.4 GHz to 1.2 GHz. The PLL has basically the same architecture as the conventional analog PLL except the locking information is stored as digital code. An analog-to-digital converter is embedded in the PLL, converting the analog loop filter output to digital code. Because the locking information is stored as digital code, the PLL can be turned off during power-down mode while avoiding long wake-up time. The PLL implemented in a 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process occupies 0.35 $mm^2$ active area. From a 1.8 V supply, it consumes 59 mW and 984 ${\mu}W$ during the normal and power-down modes, respectively. The measured rms jitter of the output clock is 16.8 ps at 1.2 GHz.

Recently, illegal manipulation and forgery threats on computer softwares are increasing. Specially, forge the code of program and disrupt normal operation using a malicious loader program against the Internet application client. In this paper, we first analyze and generate signatures of malicious loader detection. And, we propose a method to secure the application client based on profiling which can detect and filter out abnormal malicious loader requests.

Dose distribution was evaluated under vaseline and thin lead used as surface bolus, in case with scattering filter and without, for 9-MeV electron using chambers in water phantom. The results were as follows: 1. The skin dose can be remarkably increased with thin lead bolus than with convensional bolus. 2. The skin dose over $110\%$ in the 0.6mm thin lead bolus compared with the maximum dose in normal irradiation, so skin burn or any other complications may be occured in patients.

This paper describes a principle of the conducted noise separator which can separate the conducted noise to the common mode and differential mode(normal mode), and presents the transfer characteristics of the separator designed and manufactured. We separated the conducted noise generated from switched mode converter to the CM and DM conducted noise, and also analyzed the source and path of conducted noise in the converter by the conducted noise separator. Since we could easily get the characteristics of the CM and DM conducted noise by the separator, we could efficiently determine the contermeasures for the reduction of the conducted noise and establish the foundation of the systematic procedure for the design of low pass filter.

A switch-mode AC/DC converter with high input power factor and sinusoidal input current waveforms is analyzed and modelled for computer simulation. The developed mathematical model for this converter can be used to examine the transient and steady-state performance for selecting the proper ratings of filter, boost inductor and semiconductor devices or the effects of this converter under normal and fault operating conditions on the associated power systems. The proposed model and computer programs are confirmed by comparing with the experimental results.

Vehicle license plate recognition identifies vehicle as a unique, and have many applications in traffic monitoring field. In this paper, a vertical edge based algorithm to extract license plate within input gray-scale image is proposed. A size-and-shape filter based on seed-filling algorithm is applied to remove the edges that are impossible to be the vertical edges of license plate. Then the remaining edges are matched with each other according to some restricted conditions so as to locate license plate in input image. After license plate is extracted. normalized and segmented, the characters on it are recognized by template matching method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can deal with license plates in normal shape effectively, as well as the license plates that are out of shape due to the angle of view.

A delay switching PLL (DSPLL) is proposed for improvement of the frequency acquisition Performance (pull-in range) while keeping a narrow bandwidth LPF. It has, between the phase detector and the LPF, just a simple RC delay circuit, a switch and another phase detector controlling the switching time. For the common second order PLL, the pull-in capability of the DSPLL is analyzed approximately, without considering additive white noise effect, and verified experimentally. It is shown that the delay switching extends the pull-in range significantly, as much as a half of lock-range. At the phase tracking mode, the delay switching does not function, to make the DSPLL be a normal PLL.

In this study, novel nano silver sand filtration method was compared with UV treatment and normal sand filtration method through filtering treated water from sewage treatment plant. As a result, $BOD_5$ removal rate of nano silver sand filtration showed higher approximately 31% and 23%, comparing with UV treatment and sand filtration. Moreover, $KMnO_4$ removal rate of nano silver sand was about 6.6 and 2.8 times higher than other two methods. In addition, it showed better for removing SS and total coliform, comparing with others. Also, there is no bacteria on nano silver sand after experiments. Therefore, nano silver sand filtration will be effective for advanced water treatment.

This paper describes the use of residual and parameter identification methods for fault detection in an air handling unit. Faults can be detected by comparing expected condition with the measured faulty data using residuals. Faults can also be detected by examining unmeasurable parameter changes in a model of a controlled system using a system identification technique. In this study, AutoRegressive Moving Average with seXtrnal input(ARMAX) and AutoRegressive with eXternal input(ARX) models with both single-input/single-input and multi-input/single-input structures are examined. Model parameters are determined using the Kalman filter recursive identification method. Regression equations are calculated from normal experimental data and are used to compute expected operating variables. These approaches are tested using experimental data from a laboratory's variable-air-volume air-handling-unit.

This paper describes a transformer protection relay based on induced voltages. The ratio of the induced voltages of the primary and secondary windings is equal to the turns ratio during normal operating conditions such as magnetic inrush, overexcitation, and steady state, but it differs from the turns ratio in the case of internal faults. For a single-phase and a three-phase Y-Y transformer, the induced voltages are estimated and the ratios are compared with the turns ratio. For three-phase Y-Δ transformers, the differences between the induced voltages are estimated to use the line currents because delta-winding currents are practically unavailable. The proposed relay is tested under various conditions such as magnetic inrush, internal winding faults, overexcitation, and different core characteristics. The results evidently indicate that the relay successfully discriminates internal faults from magnetic inrush and overexcitation. This paper concludes by implementing the relay into a TMS320C6701 digital signal processor and reports satisfactory results. The relay requires no hysteresis data and can reduce the operating time of a relay.
