  • Dot pattern print methods composed of a diffusion film and two prism sheets, have been generally used for backlighting systems of LCDs. However, this methods require complex structures and show high power consumption and optical loss. To improve these disadvantages of conventional backlight units, light guides using highly scattering optical transmissions (HSOT) polymer as scatters, have been introduced. In this study we analyzed multiple scattering effect in light guide by means of Monte carlo simulation based on Mie scattering theory and ray tracing method. As a result it was revealed that scattering intensity depends on the size of scatters. On the other hands, it was shown that scattering efficiency depends on the wavelength of fluorescent lamp as well as the size of scatters.

  • 본 논문에서는 GPS와 의사위성을 이용하는 무인항공기 착륙용 측위 정확도 예측 프로그램의 개발을 나타내었다. 무인항공기의 착륙 환경을 모사하기 위하여 착륙 장소의 GIS 데이터를 기반으로 광선추적(ray tracing) 기법을 이용하여 의사 위성신호의 전파과정을 상세히 모사하였으며, GPS 위성의 위치는 위성궤도 생성 프로그램과 오차 모델을 이용하여 생성하였다. 의사위성 신호와 GPS 신호를 동시에 사용하여 위치를 구할 수 있으며, 일반적인 GPS UERE 모델과 의사위성 설치 환경의 UERE 모델을 이용하여 DOP와 NSP를 계산하고 측위 정확도를 예측할 수 있다. 개발된 측위 정확도 예측 프로그램은 무인항공기의 착륙지의 선정 및 오차 예측뿐 아니라 의사위성과 GPS를 동시에 사용하는 모든 응용에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있다.

  • 광선추적기법은 사진과 같은 고해상도의 영상을 만들어내는 렌더링 기법중의 하나이다. 이 기법은 이미지를 합성하는데 많은 양의 계산 시간을 필요로 한다. 병렬처리 기법이 광선추적에 계산양의 처리 기간을 감소하기 위하여 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 병렬 광선추적 기법을 MPI(Message Passing Interface)를 사용하여 IBM Supercomputer 상에서 노드의 개수의 증가에 따른 속도 향상과 노드간에 전달되는 메시지의 크기에 따른 성능 향상을 실험하였다. 본 논문에서 실험한 병렬 광선 추적 기법으로 IBM SP 시스템 상에서 다양한 영상을 생성하였다. 영상은 분할가능하고 노드에 분배할 수 있기 때문에 병렬화 범주에 들 수 있으며 부하균형을 맞출 수 있다. 실험에서 프로세서수의 증가에 따른 이상적인 속도향상률(Speed-up rate)을 15개의 프로세서를 사용하여 얻을 수 있었다. 광선을 추적하여 영상을 합성해 낼 때 표현하고자 하는 영상이 단순한 객체로 이루어져 있다면 각 노드에 분산해줘야 할 작업의 크기는 복잡한 객체들로 구성된 영상보다 클 때 더 놓은 성능을 나타내었다. 분산작업의 크기가 작아 상대적으로 통신횟수가 증가할 때 렌더링시 효율저하를 나타내었다.

  • There are a few core technologies to enable high-performance $4^{th}$ generation (4G) broadband wireless communication system. A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) provides high-rate transmission through expended channels by multiple array antennas in both sender and receiver side. Also orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is well-known as the most appropriate technique for high data rate transmission such as Mobile WiMAX and WLAN. Efficient decrease of inter-carrier interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI) are the reasons for why OFDM is suitable for high-performance transmission, 4G mobile communication. In this paper, we mainly focus on two of objects, combination between MIMO and OFDM, and OFDM channel simulator using Ray-tracing algorithm. The results of this paper can be used implementation of a Wireless Software Platform for 4G Mobile Communication Systems.

  • Wireless communication has become a hot issue for its simplicity. Using light wave instead of micro wave has many advantages. It is simple to design a circuit because we can make a circuit with discrete components such as photo diode, photo detector, OP Amp[2]. And we can have many communication channels for we can use every frequency domain. In this paper, we design the wireless communication system and analyze the pulse signal. Then using ray tracing technology we simulate the distribution of light beam.

  • A coverglass pattern was designed to improve the annual electrical energy production of a building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) module installed in the exterior walls of buildings. The transmittance pattern was calculated using ray tracing, and the results were derived by optimizing the simulation using Taguchi's method. We obtained the optimal pattern by analyzing the conventional patterns for improving the transmittance and derived design factors by quantifying the pattern. By calculating the influence of electrical energy on each design factor, we obtained the optimal coverglass pattern that produced the maximum annual electrical energy. The annual electrical energy production improved by approximately 11.79% compared to the non-patterned coverglass.

  • The objective of this investigation is to establish a simple yet effective block adjustment procedure for the orthorectification of multi-orbit satellite images. The major works of the proposed scheme are: (1) adjustment of satellite‘s orbit accurately, (2) calculation of the error vectors for each tie point using digital terrain model and ray tracing technique, (3) refining the orbit using the Least Squares Filtering technique and (4) generation of the orthophotos. In the process of least squares filtering, we use the residual vectors on ground control points and tie points to collocate the orbit. In orthorectification, we use the indirect method to generate the orthoimage. Test areas cover northern Taiwan. Test images are from SPOT 5 satellite. Experimental results indicate that proposed method improves the relative accuracy significantly.

  • Noise power of large machineries, such as textile looms, winders, and twisting machines, is often measured in a reverberant space because they cannot be installed and operated in an anechoic chamber due to their size, weight, and operating conditions. Factors affecting the measurement error of an in-situ noise power measurement include the nonuniform reverberation time and the direction of sound intensity vector which is usually regarded as normal to the measurement surface. In this study errors due to these factors are estimated with the aid of numerical simulation based on the ray-tracing technique. The averaging of reverberation times measured at several points on the measurement surface is suggested to reduce the errors from nonuniform absorption. Also the direction cosine of each surface element is taken into account, which as a whole is represented as a solid angle of the measurement surface.

  • Various approaches to process active sonar signals are under study, but there are many problems to be considered. The sonar signals are distorted by the underwater environment, and the spatio-temporal and spectral characteristics of active sonar signals change in accordance with the aspect of the target even though they come from the same one. And it has difficulties in collecting actual underwater data. In this paper, we synthesized active target echoes based on ray tracing algorithm using target model having 3-dimensional highlight distribution. Then, Fractional Fourier transform was applied to synthesized target echoes to extract feature vector. Recognition experiment was performed using probabilistic neural network classifier.
