Nowadays, the solar expose right is very important with people's life. Therefore, in calculating the sunshine hours, the point analysis and area analysis methods are used in previous studies. Previous two methods have merits and faults. Therefore, ray-tracing method is used as a alternative. Ray-tracing method is adopted by the software of Autodesk Ecotect which is a widely used program by the architectural company and academic university. In this study first, ray-tracing methodology is studied with how to calculate the overshadowing area and, secondly, the sensitivity of the two major factors, overshadowing accuracy and sky subdivision, is analyzed. With these results, appropriate application of the ray-tracing method is presented.

In this paper, propagation analysis method in using 3D Ray Tracing propagation model in wireless cell planning is proposed. Through 3D Ray Tracing model, we can predict the distribution of propagation loss of the received signal. For correct and a low complex analysis, Quad Tree and Pre-Ordering and Hash Function algorithms are included in 3D Ray Tracing algorithm. And 3D Ray Tracing model is embodied in CellTREK that is developed by KT and used to plan Wibro system analysis. In CellTREK, propagation analysis is performed and that result is represented in 3D viewer. In numerical results, it is showed that the proposed scheme outperforms Modified HATA model when comparing with measurement data.

The present work covers a new ray tracing scheme of an injection-molded plastic lens linked with finite element analysis fur injection molding processes. The traditional ray tracing schemes have been based on the assumption that optical property of the lens is homogeneous throughout the entire volume. However, this assumption is quite unrealistic for injection-molded plastic lenses since material properties vary at every point due to injection molding effects. In order to consider non-homogeneous property of a lens, a modified ray tracing method is proposed in connection with finite element analysis of injection molding. Through the analysis of the injection molding process, the distribution of refractive indices can be obtained. This information is then utilized in the proposed ray tracing scheme based on finite element meshes so as to take into account variation of the refractive indices. The effect of mold temperature is also investigated through finite element analysis, and the relevant optical quality is evaluated through the proposed ray tracing simulation.

The present study covers an integrated simulation method to evaluate optical performance of an aspheric plastic lens by connecting an injection molding analysis with a ray tracing simulation. Traditional ray tracing methods have based on the assumption that the optical properties of a lens are homogeneous throughout the entire volume. This assumption is to a certain extent unrealistic for injection-molded plastic lenses because material properties vary at every point due to the injection molding effects. To take into account the effects of the inhomogeneous optical properties of the molded lens, a numerical scheme is developed to calculate the distribution of refractive index induced from the injection molding process. This index distribution is then reflected onto CODE $V^{(R)}$ simulation and used to calculate ray paths in inhomogeneous media. The proposed tracing scheme is implemented on the tracing of an aspheric lens for a mobile phone camera module.

The present study covers an integrated simulation method to evaluate optical performance of an aspheric plastic lens by connecting a finite element (FE) analysis of injection molding with a ray tracing simulation. Traditional ray tracing methods have based on the assumption that the optical properties of a lens are homogeneous throughout the entire volume. This assumption is to a certain extent unrealistic for injection-molded plastic lenses because material properties vary at every point due to the injection molding effects. To take into account the effects of the inhomogeneous optical properties of the molded lens, a new.ay tracing scheme is proposed in conjunction with a FE analysis of the injection molding. A numerical scheme is developed to calculate ray paths on every element layer with more realistic information of the refractive indices which can be obtained through the FE analysis. This information is then used to calculate the ray paths based on the FE mesh of which nodal points have unique index values. The proposed tracing scheme is implemented on the tracing of an aspheric lens, and its validity is ascertained through experimental verification.

Modeling and analysis using a ray tracing method for internal defects were described. Reflection and refraction of rays on the interface of defects were modeled using the Harvey model and the Lambertian model. The diffraction on the interface of defects affected the incoming signals and it could evaluate any defects in the matter and its signal would be analyzed with the ray tracing simulation. The simulation results were compared with actual detecting signals and the ray tracing model was shown in good agreement with experimental data. This method has a possibility to be used as wave propagation modeling in non-destructive testing.

This paper gives the way of analyzing internal noise of rolling stocks which is urgently required by civilians. Triangular beam method among ray tracing techniques is utilized to compute noise distribution of rolling stocks. Noise source and transmisstion loss of several sections from experimental work are included in this calculation. Ray tracing technique is found useful to compute big structures like rolling stocks.

We propose an analysis method of an autostereoscopic display system with lenticular lens array using finite ray-tracing method that is verified by the geometrical optics. In the present work, we adopt the cylinder equation for the mathematical expression of the lenticular lens. For the calculation of the direction cosine of the transmitted ray, we first calculate the refracting point at bottom of the lens and the direction cosine of the incident ray that propagating through the lens by the Snell's law, and then apply to finite ray-tracing method. Finally, we obtain the simulation results for the intensity distribution of the ray at optimal viewing distance. From these results, we confirm the realization of 3D image that exists separately according to the viewing position at an optimal viewing distance.

광선추적법(ray tracing)은 빛의 반사, 투과 등을 사실적으로 표현할 수 있는 대표적인 전역조명(global illumination) 기술이지만, 복잡한 계산과정으로 인해 실시간 활용에는 많은 제약이 존재한다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 최근에는 GPU(Graphics Processing Unit) 기반의 광선추적법 알고리즘이 활발하게 개발되고 있으며, 본 논문에서는 J. Purcell 등이 제안한 광선추적법 기법을 구현하였다. 그리고 구현된 알고리즘을 인터렉티브 응용분야에 활용하기 위해 렌더링 성능을 개선하는 두가지 방법을 적용하였다. 먼저, 그래픽스 하드웨어에서 지원하는 래스터라이제이션(rasterization)을 적용해 초기 광선의 교차점을 효과적으로 구했다. 또한 대상 물체를 가속화(acceleration) 구조로 구성하여 광선과 물체간의 교차연산에 소요되는 계산시간을 단축하였다. GPU 기반의 광선추적법 렌더링에서 다양한 성능 개선 알고리즘을 적용하여 향상된 렌더링 결과를 구체적으로 분석한 기존 연구가 비교적 적었으며, 본 논문에서는 각 과정에 따른 개선 결과를 제시하였다. 구현된 렌더러와 GPU 기반의 환경 맵을 비교하였으며 이동형 개인 컴퓨터와 무선 센싱 장비를 이용한 무선 원격 렌더링 시스템을 구현하였다. 제안된 시스템은 실시간 합성, 증강현실(augmented reality), 가상현실 등의 다양한 분야에서 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

본 논문에서는 비교적 큰 규모의 불규칙 조면에 의한 산란 특성을 예측하기 위해 ray tracing 기법을 적용하였다. 전자계를 평가하기 위하여, 회절 레이(ray)에 대해서 knife edge 회절에 의한 회절 계수를 사용하였고, 반사 레이에 관해서는 Fresnel의 반사 계수를 사용하였다. 또한 레이 추적 방법에는 수신기에 도달하는 모든 레이의 경로를 정확히 찾아주는 image method를 채용하였으며, 불규칙 조면에 회절계를 고려하였다. 파도 모양의 조면에 의한 산란 특성과 빌딩 모양의 표면에 의한 지연 확산(delay spread) 특성에 대해 수치 계산하였다. 불규칙 조면에 의한 산란 특성을 수치적으로 해석하는데 ray tracing 기법을 적용하여 그 유효성을 입증하였다.
