In this study, a survey was conducted among students who received ARPA/radar simulation training in order to verify the effect of training. An effective training method based on the analysis results was also proposed. Furthermore, this study analyzed full mission simulation conducted over one semester, and found that training effect increased as time passed. The survey showed improvement in skills related to radar/ARPA utilization, ARPA decoding, ship handling, and overall skill. Students responded practical skills improved more than theoretical knowledge, and also analysis showed that ship handling skills had a larger effect than radar decoding skills on improving overall skill, therefore proposed that theoretical education regarding the functions of radar and ARPA should be reinforced in ARPA/radar simulation training.

A reduced order observer is developed for depth control of a hybrid underwater glider which combines the good aspects of a conventional autonomous underwater vehicle and a underwater glider. State variables include the center of gravity of the robot and the weight of the buoyancy bag, which can not be directly measured. By using the mathematical model and available information such as directional velocities, accelerations, and attitudes, we developed a Luenberger's reduced order observer to estimate the center of gravity and the buoyancy weight. By simulations using Matlab/Simulink, the efficiency of the proposed observer is shown, where a LQR controller using full state variables is adopted as a depth controller.

Several parallelization methods that can be applied to High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) decoders are evaluated. The market requirements of high-resolution videos, such as Full HD and UHD, have been increasing. To satisfy the market requirements, several parallelization methods for HEVC decoders have been studied. Understanding these parallelization methods and objective comparisons of these methods are crucial to the real-time decoding of high-resolution videos. This paper introduces the parallelization methods that can be used in HEVC decoders and evaluates the parallelization methods comparatively. The experimental results show that the average speed-up factors of tile-level parallelism, wavefront parallel processing (WPP), frame-level parallelism, and 2D-wavefront parallelism are observed up to 4.59, 4.00, 2.20, and 3.16, respectively.

Abrupt change of cross-section in mechanical parts is one of significant causes of structural fracture. In this paper, a hybrid method is employed to analyze the stress distribution of a discontinuous plate. The plate with an inclined crack is utilized in our experiment and the stress field in the vicinity of crack tip is calculated through isochromatic fringe order of given points. This calculation can be made handy through least-squares method integrated with complex power series representation(Laurent series) implemented on a computer program for high-speed processing. In order to accurately compare calculated results with experimental ones, both of actual and regenerated photoelastic fringe patterns are doubled and sharpened by digital image processing. The experiment results show that regenerated patterns obtained by hybrid method are quite comparable to actual patterns.

In this paper, we propose a rotation resistant robust logo embedding watermarking technique. Geometric manipulations make the detection process very complex and difficult. Watermark embedding in the normalized image directly suffers from smoothing effect due to the interpolation during the image normalization. This can be avoided by estimating the transform parameters using image normalization angle and moments, instead of embedding in the normalized image. Conventional rotation resistant schemes that use full frame transform. In this paper we adopt DCT and calculate masking using a spatio-frequency localization of the $8{\times}8$ block DCT coefficients. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is robust against rotation process.

본 논문에서는 32비트 MCU RISC 프로세서를 사용하여 MPEC 오디오 복호화기를 소프트웨어의 구현하였다. 구현된 MPEC 오디오 복호화기는 MPEC-2 Layer-III (MP3)와 MPEC-2 AAC 로 구성된다. 프로그래밍 가능한 소프트웨어로 구현하여 향후 성능 개선이나 새로운 기능을 추가할 수 있는 유연성을 극대화하였다. 복호화기 구현은 구현 시간과 비용을 고려하여 직접 어셈블리를 코딩하는 대신 최적화된 C 코드를 사용하여 컴파일하는 방법을 선택하였다. 이때 발생할 수 있는 성능 저하 요소들을 줄이기 위해 추가의 최적화 과정을 수행하여 성능을 개선하는 방법을 제시하였다. 구현된 복호화기의 출력 음질은 ISO 13818-4 compliance test 결과 Full compliance 를 만족하였다. 또한 연산량 최적화 결과 MP3 와 AAC 테스트 비트열에 대해 모두 35 MHz 이하의 동작 주파수로 동작이 가능함을 확인하였다.

We propose an algorithm for extracting the boundary of an object. In order to take full advantage of global shape, our approach uses global shape parameters derived from Point Distribution Model (PDM). Unlike PDM, the proposed method models global shape using curvature as well as edge. The objective function of applying the shape model is formulated using Bayesian rule. We can extract the boundaries of an object by evaluating iteratively the solution maximizing the objective function. Experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce computation cost than the PDM and it is robust to noise, pose variation, and some occlusion.

In television stereo system, to produce the sound image for spatial impression is too difficult because of the narrow distence between two speakers. A method of widening the sound image using precedence effect was introduced but it didn't work effectively in low frequency band. In this paper, we propose a new method to produce an expanded sound image in full band of audio requency in band sound is expanded by phase shifting method and a higher frequency band sound is expanded by reflection. In simulation and experiment, the proposed system guarantees useful effect of sound image expansion in television stereo system.

In this paper, a comparative study is presented to evaluate the addition architecture of the high-speed checksum module in TCP/IP processing. In order to speed up TCP/IP processing, H/W implementation offers concurrent and parallel processing to yield high speed computation, with respect to S/W implementation. This research aims at comparing two addition architectures of checksum module, which is the major botteleneck in TCP/IP processing. The 16-bit and 8-bit byte-by-byte addition architecture are implemented by the full custom design, and compared, in analytical and experimental manner, from standpoint of space and performance. For LG $0.6\mu\textrm{m}$ TLM process, the 8-bit addition implementation requires the area, 1.3 times larger than the 16-bit one, and it operates at 80MHz while the 16-bit one runs by 66MHz.

A CMOS RF bandpass amplifier which performs both functions of low-noise amplifier and bandpass filter is designed for the application of 1.9 ㎓ RF front-end in wireless receivers. The positive-feedback Q-enhancement technique is used to overcome the low gain and low Q factor of the bandpass amplifier. The designed bandpass amplifier is simulated with HSPICE and fabricated using HYUNDAI $0.8\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS 2-poly 2-metal full custom process. Under 3 V supply voltage, results of simulation show that the CMOS bandpass amplifier provides the power gain 23dB, noise figure 3.8 dB, and power dissipation 55mW.
