This paper presents the physiological signal processing CMOS one chip for transmitting human bodys small electrical signals such as electrocardiogram(EKG) or electromyogram(EMG) and the external system for receiving signals was implemented by the commercial ICs. For simultaneous four-subject four-channel telemetry, a new enfored synchronization techniqeu using infrared bi-directional communication has been proposed. The telemeter IC with the size of 5.1*5.1mm$^{2}$ has the following functions: receiving of command signal, initialization of internal state of all functional blocks, decoding of subject-selection signal, time multiplexing of 4-channel modulated physiological signals, transmitting of telemetry signal to external system and auto power down control. The newly designed synchronized oscillator with low supply voltage dependence in the telemeter IC operates at a supply voltage from 4.6~6.0V and the nonlinearity error of PIM modulator was less than 1.2%F.S(full scale). The power saving block operates at the period of 2.5ms even if the telemetry IC does not receive command signal from external system for a constant time.

A data and clock recovery integrated circuit for MAC (Multiplexed Analog Component) TV standard is described. The chip performs the recovery of a system clock from a digitally encoded voice signal, clamping of a video signal for DC-level restoration, and precise gain control of a video signal in the presence of a large amplitude variation. A PLL (Phase Locked Loop) is used for timing recovery and a new gain control circuit is proposed which enhances its accuracy and dynamic range by employing two identical four-quadrant analog multipliers. The chip is designed in full custom with 1.5um BiCMOS technology, and layout verification is completed by post-simulation with the extracted circuit.

This paper presents a new high-performance VLSI architecture and VLSI implementation for full-search block matching algorithm. The proposed VLSI architecture has the feature of two directional parallel and pipeline processing, thereby reducing the PE idle time at which the direction of block matching operation within the search area is changed. Therfore, the proposed architecture is faster than the existing architectures under the same clock frequency. Based on HSPICE circuit simulation, it is verified that the implemented procesing element is operated successfully within 13 ns for 75 MHz operation.

The characteristics of 3 inch wafer scale GaAs epitaxial wafer grown by molecular beam epitaxy for LSI process application were studied. The thickness and doping uniformity are characterized and discussed. The growth temperature and growth rate were $600^{\circ}C$ by pyrometer, and 1 $\mu$m/h, respectively. It was found that thickness and doping uniformity were 3.97% and 4.74% respectively across the full 3 inch diameter GaAs epitaxial layer. Also, ungated MESFETs have been fabricated and saturation current measurement showed 4.5% uniformity on 3 inch, epitaxial layer, but uniformity of threshold voltage increase up to 9.2% after recess process for MESFET device.

We present a new low power scan testing and test data compression mothod lot System-On-a-Chip (SOC). The don't cares in unspecified scan vectors are mapped to binary values for low Power and encoded by adaptive encoding method for higher compression. Also, the scan-in direction of scan vectors is determined for low power. Experimental results for full - scanned versions of ISCAS 89 benchmark circuits show that the proposed method has both low power and higher compression.

Surface wave scattering by periodic grooves of arbitrary profile in a grounded dielectric slab is investigated for the TE surface wave incidence. Both the finite and infinite periodic geometries are considered. The former case is analyzed by using of hybrid FEM/MOM and the latter by using of full MOM procedure. Some numerical results for the reflected and transmitted powers in a grounded dielectric slab, radiation power into the free space, and radiation patterns in case of finite structure and for the dispersion diagram in case of infinite structure are presented. And some descriptions on the relationship between the finite and infinite structure such as the maximum beam angle are given.

An accurate extraction technique is developed to determine full euqivalent circuit parameters of Si MOSFETs using 1 set of measured S-parametes without complicated optimization process. This technique is based on the use of anlytic Z-parameters experessions for resistances and inductances and the Y-parameter ones for ntrinsic parameters. This accuracy is proved over the wide range of gate voltage by observing good agreement between measured and fitted Z-parameter equations and frequency-independent response of the extracted intrinsic parameters. Using this technique, gate voltage-dependencies of model parameters are obained in the saturation region and these results show the similar behavior to the short-channel effects expected from the device theory.

Digitalization of not only non-safety but also safety-grade I &C systems with full computerized Main Control Room (MCR) is the recent trend of I&C systems of nuclear power plants (NPP) around the world, while plant maintenance has been shifting from traditional time based maintenance to condition based maintenance. In order to cope with the new trend of operation and maintenance in NPP, a concept of online distributed diagnostic system for both plant operation and maintenance has been proposed in order to further improve both the plant efficiency and the work environment of plant operation staff members by organizational learning. In this respect, the research subjects of human machine interface (HMI) for the online distributed diagnostic system are also discussed for supporting the plant personnel at both MCR and local working places in the plant by the application of advanced ICT (Information and Communication Technologies).

Evolutionary operation (EVOP) proposed by Box(1957) is a method for continuous monitoring and improvement of a full-scale manufacturing process with the objective of moving the current operating conditions toward the better ones. EVOP in experiments with mixtures consists of screening vital few components and making small changes in the current operating condition by making small increments in the proportion of the screened component. In this paper, how to determine operating conditions in EVOP in experiments with mixtures around the current operating condition is proposed. The proposed methods are illustrated with the simulated data based on the well known flare experimental data described by McLean and Anderson(1966).

The Compact Airborne Imaging Spectrometer System (CAISS) was jointly designed and developed as the hyperspectral imaging system by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and ELOP inc., Israel. The primary mission of the CAISS is to acquire and provide full contiguous spectral information with high quality spectral and high spatial resolution for advanced applications in the field of remote sensing. The CAISS consists of six physical units; the camera system, the gyro-stabilized mount, the jig, the GPS/INS, the power inverter and distributor, and the operating system. These subsystems shall be tested and verified in the laboratory before the flight. Especially the camera system of the CAISS shall be calibrated and validated with the calibration equipments such as the integrated sphere and spectral lamps. To improve data quality and availability, it is the most important to understand the mechanism of hyperspectral imaging system and the radiometric and spectral characteristics. This paper presents the major characteristics of camera system on the CAISS and summarizes the results of radiometric and spectral experiment during preliminary system verification.
