펄스와전류탐상에서 탐상 신호는 주로 센서코일에 유도되는 기전력의 시간에 따른 변화를 측정하여 사용되었는데, 최근에는 홀센서(Hall sensor)로 측정한 신호를 사용하는 경우도 많아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 펄스와전류탐상에서 나타나는 홀센서 신호를 수치적으로 모델링하여 예측하였다. 이를 위해 두께 측정을 위한 탐촉자를 설계하고 먼저 계단입력전류를 사용한 수치해석을 수행하여 홀센서를 사용하였을 경우의 신호를 예측하였다. 또한, 코일을 센서로 사용하였을 경우의 신호도 동시에 계산하였다. 수치모델링 결과로 예측된 홀센서 신호들은 실험 연구를 통해 보고된 신호들과 유사한 형태를 가지고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 피검사체의 두께 변화에 따른 두 신호들의 특성을 분석하고 비교해 본 결과, 홀센서 신호에서는 코일센서 신호에 비해 두께 변화를 판별하기 위한 정보가 더 적게 제공된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 펄스입력전류를 사용한 경우의 탐상 신호들도 계산해 본 결과, 두 신호 모두 사용된 펄스의 폭이 지난 시간에는 계단입력전류를 사용한 경우의 응답이 반대가 되어 감소하는 형태로 나타난다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문은 CO센서의 화재에 대한 감지특성을 분석 후 화재감지기로서의 적용성 판단을 하기 위한 논문이다. CO센서의 화재감지기로의 적용성을 판단하기 위해 UL 268에서 규정하고 있는 화재시험실과 유사한 규모의 화재실험장을 설계 제작하고, UL 268에서 제시된 화재시험기준에 준한 실화재실험을 실시하여 화원 종류에 따른 CO센서와 광전식연기감지기의 다양한 화원의 화재에서 발생하는 일산화탄소와 연기에 대한 감지특성을 측정하여 비교 분석하였다. 실험결과 종이화원 및 목재화원과 같이 불완전연소로 진행되는 초기화재에서 CO센서가 광전식연기감지기보다 약 2~3배 빠른 감지특성이 나타났다. 특히, 목재훈소화재에서 CO센서의 감지특성이 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

Breath analysis using a portable device is better than the classical breath analysis system in terms of installation and operation. There is an increasing need to develop cost-effective equipment for testing gas sensors from the viewpoint of functionalities that can be applied applicable to portable devices. In the present study, an economical gas chamber for in-situ gas measurement is implemented with a single gas chamber without using expensive gas storage and control equipment; the gas response characteristics are analyzed using the above-described chamber. The main features of the implemented gas chamber are simple injection procedure, improved gas diffusion, easy measurement and cleaning, support for low-power mode measurement function for portable devices, and open source platform. Moreover, an analysis of gas response characteristics based on changes in sensor voltage show that the sensitivity and 90% response time are affected by the sensor voltage. Furthermore, the sensitivity graph has an inflection point in a specific range. The gas sensor applied in this study showed fast response speed and high sensitivity for sensor voltages of 3.0-3.5 V, regardless of the concentration of acetone gas, the target gas used in this study.

Ultrasonic sensors show various reception characteristics based on the density of the measurement medium; hence, they are used in various fields to benefit from the characteristics of ultrasonic signals. In this study, the reception characteristics according to the thickness of the first matching layer are compared and analyzed for application to gas tank microleak detection. Accordingly, three types of sensors are manufactured with varying thicknesses of the first matching layer, namely 4.8 mm, 5.1 mm, and 5.5 mm; further, a direct measurement method is used wherein the sensor is attached to the inside of the chamber. Experiments are conducted to observe the phase change due to microleakage, which is the most linear in the sensor with the 4.8 mm thick first matching layer. This is assumed to be the result of stable signal transmission and reception with little phase deviations over time because the first matching layer is closest to the ultrasonic wavelength. The other sensors show nonlinear results with increasing thickness of the first matching layer. Through this study, it is found that appropriately selecting the thickness of the first matching layer of the ultrasonic sensor can greatly influence sensor reliability.

ISFET를 바탕으로 한 포도당 센서일 경우에 저감도, 드리프트 현상, 긴 응답시간의 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이러한 이유로, ISFET 포도당센서에 백금 엑츄에이터(Pt actuator)를 내장시켜 반응부산물인 $H_2O_2$를 전기분해하는 전류법적인 엑츄에이션(amperometric actuation) 기법을 도입하여 감도를 높였다. 또한 출력신호의 기준선(baseline)을 확인한 후, $H_2O_2$ 전기분해에 의한 pH 변화분만을 검출하여 출력신호로 사용하는 새로운 측정법을 고안하여 심각한 드리프트를 배제하였다. 이러한 전류법적 엑츄에이션과 측정 기술로써 ISFET 포도당 센서의 동작특성이 개선되었다. 제작된 ISFET 포도당센서는 포도당 농도에 따른 응답의 크기가 30mM의 인산완충용액인 PBS(phosphate buffer solution)에서 약 26mV/decade의 높은 감도와 선형성을 보였다. 이 센서를 사용하여 높은 정밀도를 갖는 휴대용 포도당 측정기를 개발하고 그 특성을 평가하였다.

In a high speed spindle system, it is very important to monitor the state of rotating rotor. Particularly in active control spindle system, the position sensor must provide feedback to the control system on the exact position of the rotor. In order to monitor the state of a high speed spindle exactly, high accuracy and wide frequency bandwidth of sensors are important. This paper observes the factors which has an effect on dynamic performances of inductive position sensor.

A new fabrication method of FBG sensor with gage length shorter than 10 mm is introduced using the reflection prism with special coating on the surface. It is verified that the bandwidth of FBG sensor increases exponentially as the gage length of it decreases. The transverse stress and strain gradient induced by local stress concentration which occurs during curing has an influence on the FBG sensor with gage length of 2 mm less than that of 10 mm.

An experimental investigation of the basic characteristics of a micro-cantilever sensor was performed by inspecting the amplitude and frequency characteristics using a commercial tuning fork. Application of acetone and ethanol with a volume of $1 {\mu}l$ on the tine of a vibrating tuning fork cause immediate response in its amplitude and frequency. It has shown that the tuning fork has ability to recognize a chemical agent with high sensitivity.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have proved to be useful in applications that involve monitoring of real-time data. There is a wide variety of monitoring applications that can employ Wireless Sensor Network. Characteristics of a WSN, such as topology and scale, depend upon the application, for which it is employed. Security requirements in WSN vary according to the application dependent network characteristics and the characteristics of an application itself. Key management is the most important aspect of security as some other security modules depend on it. We discuss application dependent variations in WSN, corresponding changes in the security requirements of WSN and the applicability of existing key management solutions in each scenario.
