본 논문에서는 column-parallel readout 회로에 적합하도록 개선된 CMOS 이미지 센서용 algorithmic ADC를 제안한다. 커패시터의 비율과 무관하고 연산 증폭기의 이득에 둔감하면서 증폭기 하나로 동작 할 수 있도록 기존 algorithmic ADC를 수정하고 적응형 바이어싱을 적용한 증폭기를 사용하여 높은 변환효율을 갖도록 하였다. 제안하는 ADC는 0.18-㎛ 매그나칩 CMOS 공정으로 설계되었으며, Spectre 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존 algorithmic ADC에 비해 변환속도당 전력소모가 37% 줄어 들었음을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a design of small controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) arrays using circular microstrip loops with frequency-insensitive characteristics. The proposed array consists of seven identical upper and lower circular loops that are electromagnetically coupled, which results in a frequency-insensitive behavior. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed feeding mechanism, the proposed array is fabricated, and its antenna characteristics are measured in a full-anechoic chamber. The operating principle of the proposed feeding mechanism is then interpreted using an equivalent circuit model, and the effectiveness of the circular loop shape is demonstrated by calculating near electromagnetic fields in proximity to the radiator. The results confirm that the proposed feeding mechanism is suitable to have frequency-insensitive behavior and induces strong electric and magnetic field strengths for higher radiation gain in extremely small antenna arrays.

A fully-differential low-voltage low-power electrocardiogram (ECG) amplifier by using the nonfeedback PMOS pseudo-resistors is proposed. It consists of two operational-transconductance amplifiers (OTA) in series (a preamplifier and a variable-gain amplifier). To make it insensitive to the gate leakage current of the OTA input transistor, the feedback pseudo-resistor of the conventional ECG amplifier is moved to input branch between the OP amp summing node and the DC reference voltage. Also, an OTA circuit with a Gm boosting block without reducing the output resistance (Ro) is proposed to maximize the OTA DC gain. The measurements shows the frequency bandwidth from 7 Hz to 480 Hz, the midband gain programmable from 48.7 dB to 59.5 dB, the total harmonic distortion (THD) less than 1.21% with a full voltage swing, and the power consumption of 233 nW in a 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process at the supply voltage of 0.7 V.

본 논문은 광 패킷 채널을 전송하는 기상에 둔감한 무선광통신방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 광 패킷 채널들을 광섬유증폭기의 포화영역에서 증폭한다. 전송손실이 증가하면, 평균 패킷의 속도나 평균 패킷의 길이를 줄여서, 자유공간에 입력되는 광파워 레벨을 증가시킨다. 실험으로, $8{\times}10$ Gigabit Ethernet 채널을 자유공간에서 2.4 km 전송하였다. 또한 자유공간에서 광 패킷 채널을 중계하기 위하여 1.2 km 지점에 한 개의 이득포화 광중계기를 사용하였다.

In this paper we design and evaluate the longitudinal nonlinear N(aub)z-CSAS(Command and Stability Augmentation System) flight control law in \"DMI(Dynamic Model Inversion)-method\" and classical \"Gain Scheduling-method\", respectively, to meet the handling quality requirements associated with push-over pull-up maneuver. It is told that the flight control law designed in \"DM-method\" is adequate to the full flight regime without gain scheduling and is efficient to produce the time response shape desired to the handling quality requirements. On the contrary, the flight control law designed in \"Gain Scheduling-method\" is easy to be implemented in flight control computer and insensitive to variation of the actuator model characteristics.n of the actuator model characteristics.

본 연구에서는 <1.55um 대역의 편광비의존성을 가지는 반도체 광증폭기를 제작하기 위하여 InGaAsP/InP 이중이종접합 웨이퍼를 이용하여 정방매립형 반도체 광증폭기(SOA)를 제작하였다. 제작된 반도체 광증폭기의 특성을 측정한 결과 3㏈대역폭은 35nm이었으며, 3dB포화출력은 4dBm이었다. ISOmA의 CW구동에서 최대이득은 19.4dB이었다. 반도체 광증폭기의 ASE power를 ASE측정시스템을 이용하여 TE, TM모드에 대하여 측정한 결과 최대이득을 나타내는 영역부근에서 TE 및 TM모드의 분포가 거의 일치하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제작된 반도체 광증폭기는 비편광의존성 SOA임을 실험적으로 확인하였다.

In this paper, we present a new time-varying sliding surface to achieve fast and robust tracking of higher-order uncertain systems. The surface passes through an initial error, and afterwards, it moves towards a predetermined target surface by means of a variable named by sliding surface gain and its intercept. Specifically, the sliding surface gain is determined so that its initial value can minimize a shifting distance of the surface and that the system roots in sliding mode can follow certain stable trajectories. The designed sliding mode control forces the system errors to stay always on the proposed surface from the beginning. By this means, the system remains insensitive to system uncertainties and disturbances for the whole time. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the comparative study with conventional time-invariant sliding mode control is performed.

Two major roles of the traction control system (TCS) are to guarantee the acceleration performance and directional stability even in extreme road conditions, under which average drivers may not control the car properly. Commercial TCSs use experiential methods such as lookup table and gain-scheduling to achieve proper performance under various road and vehicle conditions. This paper proposes a new slip controller which uses the brake and the throttle actuator simultaneously. To avoid measurement problems and to get a simple structure, the brake controller and the throttle controller are designed using Lyapunov redesign method and multiple sliding mode control respectively. Through the hybrid use of brake and throttle controllers, the vehicle is insensitive to the variation of the vehicle mass, brake gain and road condition and can achieve the required acceleration performance. The proposed method is validated with simulations based on 15 DOF passenger car model.

In this paper, the well-conditioned observer is designed to be insensitive to the ill-conditioning factors in transient and steady-state observer performance. A condition number based on 12-norm of the eigenvector matrix of the observer matrix has been proposed on a principal index in the observer performance. For the well-conditioned observer design, the non-normality measure and the observability condition of the observer matrix are utilized. The two constraints are specified into observer gain boundary region that guarantees a small condition number and a stable observer. The observer gain selected in this region guarantees a well-conditioned and observable property. In this study, this method is applied to the Luenberger observer and Kalman filters for small order systems. In designing Kalman filters, the ratio of the process noise covariance to the measurement noise covariance is a design parameter and its effect on the condition number is investigated.

In this paper, the well-conditioned observer is designed to be insensitive to the ill-conditioning factors in transient and steady-state observer performance. A condition number based on $L_2-norm$ of the eigenvector matrix of the observer matrix has been proposed on a principal index in the observer performance. For the well-conditioned observer design, the non-normality measure and the observability condition of the observer matrix are utilized. The two constraints are specified into observer gain boundary region that guarantees a small condition number and a stable observer. The observer gain selected in this region guarantees a well-conditioned and observable property. In this study, this method is applied to the Luenberger observer and Kalman filters.
