Modal properties of guided waves along circular dispersive double negative (DNG) index metamaterial rod waveguides are numerically investigated. Identical forms of dispersive dielectric and magnetic material constants are used for simplicity. For degenerated azimuthally symmetric mode, a multimode region, a single mode region, a band gap region and a forbidden region are found which cannot be observed in the case of the conventional dielectric rod waveguide. As the normalized frequency goes down, discrete guided modes are continuously generated, which is a reverse property of conventional dielectric rod waveguide. Also, there are high-frequency cutoffs, which have been generally examined in dispersive circular geometries such as a plasma column or a plasma Goubau line. In the single mode region, both the low- and high-frequency cutoffs are existed where the propagation constants are continued between the guided oscillating and surface modes.

In this paper, charging modes of series resonant converter for a high voltage energy storage capacitor are compared in terms of charging time, peak resonant current, normalized peak resonant current and voltage in each operation mode. Operating principles of the full bridge series resonant converter with capacitor load are explained and analyzed in discontinuous and continuous operation mode. Based on the analysis and simulation result, $0.6{\omega}_r$ < ${\omega}_s$ < $0.75{\omega}_r$ and $1.3{\omega}_r$ < ${\omega}_s$ < $1.4{\omega}_r$ are evaluated to the best range of switching frequency for charging of an high voltage energy storage capacitor. 1.8 kJ/s SRC prototype is assembled with TI 28335 DSP controller and 40 kJ, 7 kV energy storage capacitor. Design rules based on the comparative analysis are verified by experiment.

본 논문에서는 단일시점의 텍스처 영상과 깊이영상을 수신 측에 전송하여 수신 측에서 원하는 시점을 생성하여 시청하는 2D 또는 3D 시스템을 가정하고, 이에 대한 영상 콘텐츠의 소유권을 주장할 수 있는 디지털 워터마킹 방법을 제안한다. 따라서 이 방법에서는 기존의 영상에 대한 공격 뿐 아니라 시점이동도 공격으로 간주한다. 시점이동 공격에 대해 본 논문에서는 송신된 시점으로 시점을 재변환하여 워터마크 데이터를 추출하는 방법을 사용하며, 여기에는 미리 학습된 자료(NCC(normalized cross-correlation) 값)를 사용한다. 워터마크 데이터를 삽입하는 방법은 기존에 가장 흔히 사용되는 방법, 즉 원 영상의 특정영역을 DCT하여 특정 부대역에 데이터를 삽입하는 방법을 사용한다. 실험을 통하여 시점이동된 영상에서의 워터마크 데이터 추출의 어려움을 보이며, 원시점으로 이동한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우 추출한 워커마크 데이터의 차이도 보인다.

Fusion and characterization of bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether based thermosetting polymer mortars containing an epoxy resin, Fly ash and Rock sand are presented here for the Experimental study. The specimens have been prepared by means of an innovative process, in mild conditions, of commercial epoxy resin, Fly ash and Rock sand based paste. In this way, thermosetting based hybrid mortars characterized by a different content of normalized Fly ash and Rock sand by a homogeneous dispersion of the resin have been obtained. Once hardened, these new composite materials show improved compressive strength and toughness in respect to both the Fly ash and the Rock sand pastes since the Resin provides a more cohesive microstructure, with a reduced amount of micro cracks. The micro structural characterization allows pointing out the presence of an Interfacial Transition Zone similar to that observed in cement based mortars. A correlation between micro-structural features and mechanical properties of the mortar has also been studied.

Throughout this paper $Z^p, Q_p$ and C_p$ will denote the ring of p-adic rational integers, the field of p-adic rational numbers and the completion of the algebraic closure of $Q_p$, respectively. Let $v_p$ be the normalized exponential valuation of $C_p$ with $$\mid$p$\mid$_p = p^{-v_p (p)} = p^{-1}$. We set $p^* = p$ for any prime p > 2 $p^* = 4 for p = 2$.

Since the modular curve $X(4)=\Gamma(4)/{\mathfrak{}}^*$ has genus 0, we have a field isomorphism K(X(4)){\approx}\mathcal{C}(j_{4})$ where $j_{4}(z)={\theta}_{3}(\frac{z}{2})/{\theta}_{4}(\frac{z}{2})$ is a quotient of Jacobi theta series ([9]). We derive recursion formulas for the Fourier coefficients of $j_4$ and $N(j_{4})$ (=the normalized generator), respectively. And we apply these modular functions to Thompson series and the construction of class fields.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement is often performed in patients with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt and it has been accepted as a safe procedure. The authors report a case of a 50-year-old male who developed acute exacerbation of the hydrocephalus immediately after the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement without any signs of shunt infection, which has not been reported until now. After revision of the intraperitoneal shunt catheter, the sizes of the intracranial ventricles were normalized.

In this paper, we propose a novel method which can detect ordnance firing events in IR images. The proposed algorithm is comprised of effective target detection and robust clutter rejection methods based on the temporalspatial cooperative filter. And additional clutter reduction is performed based on the proposed two features, NTFF (Number of Temporal Filter Frames) and SNS(Size-Normalized Signal). Experimental results show the effectiveness and feasibilities of our proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose an iterative interstream interference cancellation technique for system with frequency selective multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel. Our method is inspired by the fact that the cancellation of the interstream interference can be regarded as a reduction in the magnitude of the interfering channel. We show that, as iteration goes on, the channel experienced by the equalizer gets close to the single input multiple output (SIMO) channel and, therefore, the proposed SIMO-like equalizer achieves improved equalization performance in terms of normalized mean square error. From simulations on downlink communications of $2{\times}2$ MIMO systems in high speed packet access universal mobile telecommunications system standard, we show that the proposed method provides substantial performance gain over the conventional receiver algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a parallel collaborative sphere decoder with a scalable architecture promising quasi-maximum likelyhood performance with a relatively small amount of computational resources. This design offers a hardware-friendly algorithm using a modified node operation through fixing the variable complexity of the critical path caused by the sequential nature of the conventional sphere decoder (SD). It also reduces the computational complexity compared to the fixed-complexity sphere decoder (FSD) algorithm by tree pruning using collaboratively operated node operators. A Monte Carlo simulation shows that our proposed design can be implemented using only half the parallel operators compared to the approach using an ideal fully parallel scheme such as FSD, with only about a 7% increase of the normalized decoding time for MIMO dimensions of $16{\times}16$ with 16-QAM modulation.
