The optical characteristics of a tunable flattened-pass-band fiber comb filter, based on the polarization-diversified loop configuration, are investigated using the $Poincar{\acute{e}}$-sphere representation. In the design process, the spectral flatness is checked quantitatively, and the tunability of the pass band is demonstrated experimentally. Theoretical calculations show that the filter also exhibits desirable dispersion and polarization properties. The orientation angles of rotatable wave plates for the wavelength tunability of the filter are obtained. Furthermore, we elaborate on the multiple angle loci produced by degeneracies through the combination of optical elements within the loop of the filter.

We present development of the calibration system for IGRINS (the Immersion GRating Infrared Spectrograph). We mainly use Th-Ar and U hollow cathode lamp as the spectral calibration source and telluric features can be used additionally. For the flat source, we selected a 3000K tungsten halogen lamp with 2 inch integrating sphere. From Light Tools simulation, the result flat image through calibration optics satisfied <1% flatness error requirement. We also present mechanical design of calibration box that will be attached on the IGRINS dewar. Three moving stages are designed to perform switching mechanism between all of the observing modes - target observation, flat, precision RV measurement, and spectro-polarimetric observation.

After launching the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) on June 2010, field campaigns were performed routinely around Korean peninsula to collect in-situ data for calibration and validation. Key measurements in the campaigns are radiometric ones with field radiometers such as Analytical Spectral Devices FieldSpec3 or TriOS RAMSES. The field radiometers must be regularly calibrated. We, in the paper, introduce the optical laboratory built in KOSC and the relative calibration method for in-situ measurement spectroradiometer. The laboratory is equipped with a 20-inch integrating sphere (USS-2000S, LabSphere) in 98% uniformity, a reference spectrometer (MCPD9800, Photal) covering wavelengths from 360 nm to 1100 nm with 1.6 nm spectral resolution, and an optical table ($3600{\times}1500{\times}800mm^3$) having a flatness of ${\pm}0.1mm$. Under constant temperature and humidity maintainance in the room, the reference spectrometer and the in-situ measurement instrument are checked with the same light source in the same distance. From the test of FieldSpec3, we figured out a slight difference among in-situ instruments in blue band range, and also confirmed the sensor spectral performance was changed about 4.41% during 1 year. These results show that the regular calibrations are needed to maintain the field measurement accuracy and thus GOCI data reliability.

In this paper, monaural ambient component extraction algorithm based on nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is described. The ambience component extraction algorithm in this paper is developed for audio upmixing system; Recent researches have shown that they can enhance listener envelopment if the extracted ambient signal is applied into the multichannel audio upmixing system. However, the conventional method stores all of the audio signal and processes all at once, so it cannot be applied to streaming system and digital signal processor (DSP) system. In this paper, the ambient component extraction algorithm based on on-line nonnegative matrix factorization is developed and evaluated to solve the problem. As a result of analysis of the processed signal with spectral flatness measures in the experiment, it was shown that the developed system can extract the ambient signal similarly with the conventional batch process system.

In this paper, we have designed the transmitter for earth station terminal operating with military geostationary satellite on Ka-band that is complied with MIL-STD-188-164A. The designed antenna of this terminal is dual-offset gregorian reflector which is consist of corrugated horn and iris polarizer, othermode transducer. This antenna meets radiation pattern and transmit EIRP spectral density requirements in this standard. The designed RF systems of this terminal are consist of Block Up Converter(BUC) converting frequency band from IF to Ka band and SSPA having low-power consumption and compact light-weight using the pHEMT MMIC compound devices. This RF systems applied with VSWR, spurious/harmonic suppression, output flatness and phase noise requirement in this standard.
