A new image processor is implemented for high-speed digital copiers and facsimiles. The imgage processor performs CCD and CIS interface, pre-processing, enlargement andreduction of gray level image, and various halftoning algorithms. Implemented halftoning algorithms are simple thresholding, fuzzy based mixed mode thresholding, dithering, and edge enhanced error diffusion. The result of binarization is transferred to a printer with serial or paralel output ports. Line by line pipelined data prodessing architecture is employed with time sharing access of the external memory. In receiving mode, it converts the resolution of received binary image for compatibility with conventional facsimile. In copy mode, a line of A3 paper with 400 dpi is processed with in 2.5 ms. The prototype of image processor was implemented usig Laser Programmable Gate Array (LPGA) with 0.8.mu.m technology.

In tis paper, w eproposed a modeling for direct-sequence spread communication base band modem in RT-level VHDL and implemented in a one-chip VLSI and tested. The transmitter modulates with DQPSK modulation method and spreads a modulated signal with 32-bit PN code into 1.152MHz. The receiver de-spreads a signal using 32-tap matched filter and recovers with DQPSK demodulation method. The digital frequency synthesizer generates the sine signal and the cosine signal of 2.304MHz with ROM tables in the size of 7$\^$*/256 and 6$\^$*/256, respectively. The implemented VLSI has been verified a BER with 10$\^$-4/ at E$\_$b//N$\_$o/ of 13dB with a SPW fixed design model and fabricated in the 0.8.mu.m KG6423 gate array with a VHDL model.

A safety class field programmable gate array based system in nuclear power plant has been developed to improve the diversity. Testbench is necessary to satisfy the technical reference, IEC-62566, for verification and validation of register transfer level code. We use the open verification methodology(OVM) developed by standard body. We show that our testbench can use random input for test. And also we show that reusability of block level testbench for the integration level testbench, which is very efficient for large scale system like nuclear reactor protection system.

Consumer demand for high quality image/video services led to growing trend in image quality enhancement study. Therefore, recent years was a period of substantial progress in this research field. Through careful observation of the image quality after processing by image enhancement algorithms, we perceived that the dark region in the image usually suffered loss of contrast to a certain extent. In this paper, the low-light stretch preprocessing algorithm is, hence, proposed to resolve the aforementioned issue. The proposed approach is evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively against the well-known histogram equalization and Photoshop curve adjustment. The evaluation results validate the efficiency and superiority of the low-light stretch over the benchmarking methods. In addition, we also propose the 255MHz-capable hardware implementation to ease the process of incorporating low-light stretch into real-time imaging systems, such as aerial surveillance and monitoring with drones and driving aiding systems.

최신의 디지털 방식 UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply)는 10여 년 전의 아날로그 UPS에 비해 많은 설계 요인들로 인해 복잡해지고 있다. 고속-고성능의 DSP(Digital Signal Process), 다수의 I/O를 위한 FPGA(Field-Programmable Gate Array), 다기능의 사용자 인터페이스 그리고 다양한 통신 등이 그 예라고 할 수 있다. 임베디드 디자인이 이렇게 복잡해지면서 하드웨어나 소프트웨어를 신뢰성 있게 테스트하기에 기존 방법으로는 충분치 않게 되었다. 본문에서는 NI(National Instruments)의 버추얼 인스트루먼트(Virtual Instrument) 기술을 이용하여 자동화된 테스트 시스템에 대해 기술한다.

In the three axis control of satellite by using reaction wheel and gyro, a Gyro carries out measuring of the attitude angie and the attitude angular velocity. The Gyro is operated by the electronic part and the mechanic actuator. The digital part of the electronic part is consisted of the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), which is one of the methods for designing VLSI (Very Large Scale Integrated Circuit), and the mechanic actuator processes the input/output data by the dynamic model. In the research of the mixed mode of Gyro, the simulation is accomplished by SABER of the mixed mode simulator and the results for the practical implementation of the satellite ACS (Attitude Control System) interfaced with the data processing are proposed.

The paper describes a implementation of space vector pulse-width modulation voltage source inverter and interfacing of DSP using field programmable gate array(FPGA) for a induction motor vector control system. The implemented chip is included logic circuits for SVPWM, dead time compensation and speed detection using Quick Logic, QLl6X24B. The maximum operating frequency and delay time can be set to 110MHz and 6 nsec. The designed Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASIC) for SVPWM can be incorporated with a digital signal processing to provide a simple and effective solution for high performance induction motor drives with a voltage source inverter. Simulation and implementation results are shown to verify the usefulness of ASIC in a motor drive system and power electronics applications.

Graphene based nano-electronic and nano-electromechanical devices will be introduced in this presentation. The first part of the presentation will be covered by our recent results on the fabrication and physical properties of artificially twisted bilayer graphene. Thanks to the recently developed contact transfer printing method, a single layer graphene sheet is stacked on various substrates/nano-structures in a controlled manner for fabricating e.g. a suspended graphene device, and single-bilayer hybrid junction. The Raman and electrical transport results of the artificially twisted bilayer indicates the decoupling of the two graphene sheets. The graphene based electromechanical devices will be presented in the second part of the presentation. Carbon nanotube based nanorelay and A new concept of non-volatile memory based on the carbon nanotube field effect transistor together with microelectromechanical switch will be briefly introduced at first. Recent progress on the graphene based nano structures of our group will be presented. The array of graphene resonators was fabricated and their mechanical resonance properties are discussed. A novel device structures using carbon nanotube field effect transistor combined with suspended graphene gate will be introduced in the end of this presentation.

본 논문은 고해상도의 영상을 처리하는 이동기기 등에 사용되는 SoC(System On a Chip)에 구현이 용이한 효과적인 화질 향상 (잡음감소와 윤곽강조) 을 위한 방법과 구조에 대한 것이다. 최근 이동기기의 발전과 진화에 따라 여러 형태의 이동기기가 개발되고 있는데 그 중 최근 인기를 끌고 있는 포터블 미디어 플레이어 (PMP)나 HD(Hight Definition)급 camcorder 등이 고해상도의 영상을 처리하는 이동기기로 분류될 수 있다. 이러한 이동기기에서 고해상도 영상에 대한 화질 향상을 기존의 복잡한 방법을 사용해 처리한다면 메모리 대역폭이나 하드웨어 크기 등의 증가로 이동기기에서 구현하는데 어려움이 따른다. 이에 본 논문에서는 이러한 이동기기에서의 고해상도의 화질 향상을 입력영상의 종류에 따라 선택적으로 메모리 대역폭 사용 없이 하드웨어 크기를 최소화하여 FPGA (field programmable gate array)나 ASIC (application specific integrated circuit)으로 구현이 용이하도록 하는 방법과 구조에 대해 설명하고 실제 영상을 가지고 실험한 결과로 주관적 화질 향상 효과를 가져 온 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
