The determination of response characteristics for pressure sensors is routinely limited to static calibration against a deadweight pressure standard. The strength of this method is that the deadweight device is a primary standard used to generate precise pressure. Its weakness lies in the assumption that the static and dynamic responses of the sensor in question are equivalent. Differences in sensor response to static and dynamic events, however, can lead to serious measurement errors. Dynamic techniques are required to calibrate pressure sensors measuring dynamic events in milliseconds. In this paper, a dynamic calibration using negative going dynamic pressure is proposed to determine dynamic pressure response for piezoelectric sensors. Sensitivity and linearity of sensor by the dynamic calibration were compared with those by the static calibration. The uncertainty of calibration results and the goodness of fit test of linear regression analysis were presented. The results show that the dynamic calibration is applicable to determine dynamic pressure response for piezoelectric sensors.

A capacitive humidity sensor is used as a test device to characterize the performance of iodine doped polyphenylacetylene(PPA) thin films in relative humidity sensing application In comparison with undoped PPA thin films. the iodine doped PPA films showed higher sensitivity(0.19pF/%RH), better linearity(4.2%FS), much lower hysteresis and lower temperature coefficients(0.043 $\sim$ 0.067pF/$^{\circ}C$) over a wide range of relative humidity.

Recently, SSPAs(Solid-State Power Amplifiers) with high linearity and efficiency replace TWTAs (Traveling-Wave-Tube Amplifiers) in satellite transponders. In this paper, a power amplifier with maximum output power is designed and constructed using GaAs FET(MGF-1302) as a test model for the development of SSPAs. For conjugate matching of input and output network, transimission lines and stubs are optimized using microwave CAD program, LINMIC+. Power amplifier is realized on the teflon substrate($\in$S1rT=2.45) with a bandwidth of 1GHz at a center frequency of 8GHz. Maximum stable gain of simulation and simulation and experimental result is obtained 9.23, 7.65 dB, respectively.

A new hydraulic tube structure for WIM sensor of a new generation is presented in this paper. The double-tube structure has been developed in order to improve the performance of the hydraulic load cell. The double-tube structure hydraulic element could be reduced by 46% in pressure changes according to temperature compared to a single-tube structure. In addition to the nonlinearity can be reduced by 67.19% at the same load condition. The hydraulic load cell shows an excellent linearity and measurement accuracy as the result of the static load test.

In the distribution networks, it is necessary to develop small and light voltage and current sensor for compact and digitalized switchgears. For this purpose, some researches have been continuing till now, CT(current transformer) and VT(voltage transformer) are one of that research. But conventional CT and VT have some problems, that is, have big size and saturation characteristics because of used to iron core. In this paper, CS(current sensor) and VS(voltage sensor), have some merits measuring of current and voltage magnitude as a alternated conventional equipment, were studied. So, this paper shows the process CS and VS design method, equivalent circuit and output result, respectively. As a result of this test, proposed CS and VS have linearity for the output, no saturation.

This paper describes design results of the measurement system to test the properties of broadband AC magnetic field sensors used in weapon system. This measurement system consists of 3-axis helmholtz coil, signal generator, signal amplifier, sensor data acquisition unit and measurement & analysis controller including the operating software. This system is able to measure various properties of AC magnetic field sensor such as sensitivity, linearity and dynamic response in the frequency of 1 Hz to 10 kHz. The performance of this system was verified by measuring and analyzing the property of a MAG 639, standard magnetic field sensor of bartington instruments, with this developed system.

In this paper, the algorithm of Abaqus UMAT is introduced to analyze the shape memory alloy. The SMA has two main effects which show non-linearity. Due to this, it is hard to analyze SMA using analysis tools and to describe all of two effects. Therefore, in this study, the program using Abaqus UMAT based on Modified Brinson model is used to analyze SMA. The martensite fraction, the most important factor which defines SMA motion, is also calculated by Fortran program in UMAT. In addition, the tensile test of SMA specimen is conducted. The availability of algorithm is proved by comparing analysis to experimental result.

We propose a method for driving loudspeakers from class D audio power amplifiers in current mode, instead of in conventional voltage mode, which was impossible with the feedback circuitry. Unlike analog audio amplifiers, Class D audio power amplifiers have signal delay between the input and output signals, which makes it difficult to apply the feedback circuitry for current-mode driving. The idea of the pre-distortion scheme used for the compensation of the non-linearity of RF power amplifiers is adapted to remedy the impedance variation effect of the loudspeakers for current driving. The method uses the speaker model for the pre-distorter to compensate for the speaker impedance variation with frequency. The simulation and test results confirms the validity of the proposed method.

We have development the steering angle sensor using not only detecting parts but also integrating technique with semiconductors for automobile applications. The performance design and analysis of the steering angle sensor for intelligent vehicles is complicated due to variety of parameters. In this study, the performance characteristics of the angle sensor were analyzed using test rig. By means of magnetic induction technique, these new the steering angle sensors showed excellent magnetic characteristics. The detection range of steering angle sensor obtained was ${\pm}800^{\circ}$, the maximum non-linearity is 0.744% Full Span and the temperature range was $-40^{\circ}C{\sim}+125^{\circ}C$. With this conclusive, the inductive angle sensor was quite satisfactory for many applications in intelligent vehicles.

This paper derives Lagrange multiplier tests based on Double-Length Artificial Regression and Outer-Product Gradient for testing linear and log-linear panel regressions against Box-Cox alternatives. The proposed DLR based LM tests are easy to implement in an error component model. From the Monte Carlo study, the DLR based LM tests are recommended for testing functiona forms.
