This paper presents the design and fabrication of a LC voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) using 1-poly 6-metal mixed signal CMOS process. To obtain the high-quality factor inductor in LC resonator, patterned-ground shields (PGS) is placed under the symmetric inductor to reduce the effect from image current of resistive Si substrate. Moreover, due to the incapability of using thick top metal layer of which the thickness is over $2{\mu}m$, as used in many RF CMOS process, the structure of dual-metal layer in which we make electrically short circuit between the top metal and the next metal below it by a great number of via materials along the metal traces is adopted. The circuit operated from 2.63 GHz to 3.09 GHz tuned by accumulation-mode MOS varactor. The corresponding tuning range was 460 MHz. The measured phase noise was -115 dBc/Hz @ 1MHz offset at 2.63 GHz carrier frequency and the current consumption and the corresponding power consumption were about 2.6 mA and 4.68 mW respectively.

Wood is a construction material that has the advantages of carbon dioxide storage ability, noise reflection, and eco-friendliness. In order to use wood for a long time, you must use wood-specific paint, which is called oil stain. Oil stain improves water resistance and moisture resistance, but has the disadvantage of being weak against fire. This is because the oil contained in the oil stain causes a chemical reaction, and this chemical reaction causes the oil stain to spontaneously ignite, igniting nearby combustible materials and causing frequent fires. To improve this, in this study, different flame retardants were mixed and added to oil stain to produce functional oil stain. In addition, we would like to apply it to wood to check glow time and carbonization area. As a result of the experiment, it shows the best performance when mixed at 30(15 + 15)(%) and added to oil stain. The remaining burn time is satisfied from 10% for all samples, and the carbonized area is satisfied when it is 30%.

본 논문은 선택실험법(Choice Experiment Method)을 이용하여 현행 지원되는 수도권매립지 주변 주민에 대한 주민지원금이 피해 정도에 상응하게 지원되고 있는지를 파악하였다. 2001년부터 거의 20년 가까이 운영된 주민지원금은 수도권매립지 운영에서 발생하는 다양한 환경피해(악취, 소음, 대기오염, 수질오염, 경관훼손 등)를 보상하기 위한 목적에서 운영되고 있으나, 현행 보상의 정도가 주변 지역 주민의 실제 피해 비용만큼 보상이 이뤄지고 있는 파악할 수 없다. 이에 본 논문은 수도권매립지 부지 경계 기준 주변 2~4km에 거주하는 주민들 300명을 대상으로 선택실험법 설문을 한 결과를 이용하여 혼합로짓모형(Mixed logit model)을 통해, 동(읍)별로 속성(악취, 소음, 대기오염, 수질오염)별 한계지불의사액을 추정하고, 이를 현행 동(읍)별 가구당 주민지원금과 비교하였다. 이를 기반으로 시나리오를 구성하고 전체 그리고 지역별 가구당 피해비용(지불의사액)을 추산하여 2019년 전체 그리고 지역별 주민지원금과 비교한 결과, 현행 전체 주민지원금 규모는 수도권매립지 주변 주민이 받는 전체 환경피해를 완벽하게 제거되는 수준에 미치지 못하는 것으로 평가되었으며, 지역별 주민지원금의 배분도 해당 지역별 피해 정도에 비례하여 배분되지 못하고 있다는 것을 발견하였다.

The sound we hear is transmitted through the atmosphere. However, both the sound we want to hear and the surrounding sound are mixed, and noise is generated, and the sound is not clearly transmitted due to factors such as distance. In particular, in closed spaces like buildings, it is often difficult to hear sounds from outside because of the sound of reflection. People with hearing impairments, such as the elderly and the deaf, have a hard time hearing the sounds they want to hear. Thus, we are developing a hearing aid that can detect radio waves. To this end, we propose the development of a hearing aid that uses FM radio and Bluetooth. These devices are expected to be useful not only for the elderly and the deaf but also in situations where information is transmitted to a large number of people, such as students and tourists, in a large space. The main purpose of this device is to enable users to hear sound correctly without blind spots.

A digital readout IC for capacitive sensors is presented. Digital capacitance readout circuits suffer from static capacitance of sensors, especially single-ended sensors, and require large passive elements to cancel such DC offset signal. For this reason, to maximize a dynamic range with a small die area, the proposed circuit features digital filters having a coarse and fine compensation steps. Moreover, by employing switched-capacitor circuit for the front-end, correlated double sampling (CDS) technique can be adopted to minimize low-frequency device noise. The proposed circuit targeted 8-kHz signal bandwidth and oversampling ratio (OSR) of 64, thus a $3^{rd}$-order ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ modulator operating at 1 MH was used for pulse-density-modulated (PDM) output. The proposed IC was designed in a 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS mixed-mode process, and occupied $0.86{\times}1.33mm^2$. The measurement results shows suppressed DC power under about -30 dBFS with minimized device flicker noise.

Pentacene was dissolved in N-methyspyrrolidone (NMP) and mixed with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS). The solution color changed from deep purple to intense yellow. As the dissolution time increased, visible absorption decreased and ultraviolet (UV) absorption increased. PEDOT:PSS or Pentacene-PEDOT:PSS was spin-coated to control the layer thickness. Three-layered Schottky diodes consisting of Al, PEDOT:PSS or PEDOT:PSS-pentacene, and Au with thickness of 300nm, respectively, were fabricated. The current densities of $4.8{\mu}A/cm^2$ at 2.5MV/m and $660{\mu}A/cm^2$ at 1.9MV/m were obtained for the Au/PEDOT:PSS/Al and Au/Pentacene-PEDOT:PSS/Al Schottky diodes, respectively. The current density of the Schottky diode was enhanced by about two orders of magnitude by doping pentacene to PEDOT:PSS.

본 논문은 신호와 잡음이 혼합된 관측치로부터 신호 관측치를 분류하는 문제를 다룬다. 잡음은 가우시안 분포를 따르고 신호는 감마 분포를 따른다고 가정할 때 관측치의 분포는 가우시안과 감마의 혼합 분포를 따르게 된다. EM 알고리즘을 통해 혼합 모델의 모수를 추정하고 신호 및 잡음을 분류하는 것을 다중 가설 검정으로 간주하여 베이즈 오류를 바탕으로 분류를 위한 경계치를 설정한다. 제안하는 방법을 분광 데이터에 근거하여 철강 제품에서 개재물 유무를 검출하는 문제에 적용하였고 별도의 시뮬레이션 데이터를 통해 성능의 우수성을 보였다.

The reduced frequency selectivity is a typical phenomenon of sensorineural hearing loss. In this paper, we compared two modeling methods for reduced frequency selectivity of hearing impaired people. The two models of reduced frequency selectivity were made using LPC(linear prediction coding) algorithm and bandwidth control algorithm based on ERB(equivalent rectangular bandwidth) of auditory filter, respectively. To compare the effectiveness of two models, we compared the result of PESQ (perceptual evaluation of speech quality) and LLR(log likelihood ratio) using 36 Korean words of two syllables. To verify the effect on noise condition, we mixed white and babble noise with 0dB and -3dB SNR to speech words. As the result, it is confirmed that the PESQ score of bandwidth control algorithm is higher than the score of LPC algorithm, on the other hands, and the LLR score of LPC algorithm is lower than the score of bandwidth control algorithm. It means that both non-linearity and widen auditory filter characteristics caused by reduced frequency selectivity could be more reflected in bandwidth control algorithm than in LPC algorithm.

The technology of line heating has evolved in various methods. Among them, fossil fuels like ethylene gas and LPG(Liquid Petroleum Gas) are widely used due to their simple utility. In the meantime, the technology implementing high frequency for line heating has also been developed continually, but its manufacturing technology or application includes lots of problems by now. One of the main characteristics of line heating using conventional technolob'Y is the quenching effect followed by heating process. On the other hand, hydrox gas which is mixed by hydrogen and oxygen is a prominent candidate for an application without above shortcomings. Especially, it is found that line heating using hydrox gas is tremendously effective taking low cost as well as low noise. In this paper, a small cell with high efficiency which can minimize installing space is developed to deal with the problem installing in narrow place. Experiments to prove the validation, efficiency and effectiveness is carried out by characterizing in the line heating of steel. It is found that the energy saving of using hydrox gas for line heating is significant and that the deviation performance is reduced by 78~89%. Furthermore, the noise is also reduced as amount of 18.3% though the heating time is not too different.
