스케일러블 비디오 코딩(SVC, Scalable Video Coding)은 MPEG(Moving Picture Expert Group)과 VCEG (Video Coding Expert Group)의 JVT(Joint VIdeo Team)에 의해 현재 표준화 되고 있는 새로운 압축 표준 기술이며 시간, 공간 및 화질의 스케일러빌리티를 지원하기 위해 계층 구조를 가지고 있다. 특히 시간적 스케일러빌리티를 위해 계층적 B-픽처 구조를 채택하고 있다. 스케일러블 비디오 코딩의 기본 계층은 H.264|AVC와 호환적이므로, 모션 예측과 모드 결정과정에서 $16{\times}16,\;16{\times}8,\;8{\times}16,\;8{\times}8,\;8{\times}4,\;4{\times}8$ 그리고 $4{\times}4$와 같은 7개의 서로 다른 크기를 갖는 블록을 사용한다. 스케일러블 비디오 코딩에서 사용되고있는 계층적 B-픽처 구조는 키 픽처인 I와 P 픽처를 제외하고는 한 GOP (Group of Picture)내에서 모두 B-픽처를 사용하므로 H.264|AVC와 비교했을 때 연산량 증가와 함께 부호화 지연도 급격히 증가한다. B-픽처는 양방향 모션 벡터인 LIST0와 LIST1을 사용하고 양방향 모두에서 다중 참조 픽처를 사용하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 통계적 가선 검증을 이용하여 스케일러블 비디오 부호화에 적용 가능한 고속 프레임간 모드 결정 알고리듬 대해 소개한다. 제안된 방법은 $16{\times}16$ 매크로 블록과 $8{\times}8$ 서브 매크로 블록에 통계적 가설 감증 기법을 적용하여 실행되며, 현재 블록과 복원된 참조 블록간의 픽셀 값을 비교하여 RD(Rate Distortion) 최적화 기반 모드 결정을 빨리 완료함으로써 고속 프레임간 모드 결정을 가능하게 한다. 제안된 방법은 프레임 간 모드 결정을 고속화함으로써 스케일러블 비디오 부호화기의 연산량과 복잡도를 최대 57%감소시킨다. 그러나 연산량 감소에 따른 비트율의 증가나 화질의 열화는 최대 1.74% 비트율 증가 및 0.08dB PSNR 감소로 무시할 정도로 작다.

본 논문에서는 OFDM(orthogonal frequency division modulation) 시스템의 비터비 복호기 출력을 이용한 주파수 동기추적알고리듬을 제안한다 OFDM 시스템은 직교성이 보장된 부반송파에 데이터를 실어 전송함으로, 부반송파간 직교성 유지가 매우 중요하다. 부반송파간 직교성을 해치는 가장 큰 원인으로써 주파수 옵셋을 들 수 있다. OFDM 시스템의 안정적인 신호 수신을 위해서는 잔존 주파수까지 제거할 수 있는 고성능 주파수 동기 알고리듬이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 다중변조 OFDM 시스템에서, 주파수 옵셋을 블라인드 모드로 추적하여 보상 할 수 있는 알고 리듬을 제안한다 전산실험을 통해 주파수 선택적 채널에서 제안한 알고리듬의 우수성을 보인다.

Recently, various research on the application of deep learning to video encoding for enhancing coding efficiency are being actively studied. This paper proposes a deep learning based intra prediction which uses multiple models by extending Matrix-based Intra Prediction(MIP) that is a neural network-based technology adopted in VVC. It also presents an efficient learning method for the multi-model intra prediction. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we integrated the VVC MIP and the proposed fully connected layer based multi-model intra prediction into HEVC reference software, HM16.19 as an additional intra prediction mode. As a result of the experiments, the proposed method can obtain bit-saving coding gain up to 0.47% and 0.19% BD-rate, respectively, compared to HM16.19 and VVC MIP.

Non-uniform optical taper waveguides have been widely used as devices for high-efficiency mode coupling, as they are integrated with single-mode optical fibers or photonic crystal waveguides. In this paper, we present a new platform for chemical sensing and bio-sensing using optical taper waveguides with these characteristics. The principle of operation is based on the coupling efficiency and interference properties of optical directional coupler (DC) and multi-mode interference coupler (MMIC). First, the curvature characteristics of taper sections of DC and MMIC is explained, and the design specifications of optimized taper waveguide to increase waveguide sensitivity is selected. Next, the sensor response to the change in refractive index of sensing analyte is numerically analyzed. Numerical results show that as the length of couplers increases, the effective index per change in refractive index unit (RIU) of analyte increases, and that sensitivity can be tuned using taper DC and MMIC design techniques.

Basic and transmission video quality testing was performed in real-time mode using hardware video codec based on MPEG-2 MP@ML standard including subsequent transmitting and receiving satellite simulator unit. The double-stimulus Impairment scale method and the double-stimulus continous quality scale method based on CCIR 500-5 were used as an evaluation method. The whole digital broadcasting satellite system consisting of MPEG-2 codec, system mux/demux, channel codec, channel, modem, antenna, etc. was put into the overall video quality testbed and the basic and transmission error quality assessment was performed at various bitrates and BER for an integrated system performance evaluation. In transmission error video quality testing, transmission error video quality maintained on average above 3.9 point on the 5-point scale. The low-bit rate quality such as film mode(@2Mbps) highly depended on the statitical characteristics of video source and maintained on average around 2.7 point.

In this paper, an efficient detection algorithm of an anchor shot in news video is presented. We observed the audio visual characteristics of news video and proposed several low level features which are appropriate for detecting an anchor shot in news video. The overall structure of the proposed algorithm is composed of 3 stages: the pause detection, the audio cluster classification, and the matching with motion activity stage. We used the audio features as well as the motion feature in order to improve the indexing accuracy and the simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is quite satisfactory.

In this paper, a novel platform for chemical sensing and biosensing is presented. The working principle is based on the coupling efficiency and interference properties of optical directional coupler (DC) and multimode interference coupler (MMIC). It has been realized using planar technology to allow integration on a silicon substrate. Firstly, the dispersion curves of DC and MMIC is described, and the design specification of an optimized slot optical waveguide to increase waveguide sensitivity is selected. Next, the sensor response to the refractive index change of sensing analyte is numerically simulated. The numerical results reveal that high effective index change per refractive index unit (RIU) change of analyte is obtained, and the sensitivity can be tuned using the DC and MMIC design technique.

The digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) system adopts Coded OFDM(COFDM) for channel coding. The COFDM is a combined technique of multicarrier transmission(OFDM) and punctured convolutional coding with viterbi error correction. Because the channel coding is an important topic for OFDM systems, this paper proposes a new turbo coded OFDM system that replaces the existing RCPC codec by a turbo codec without modifying the puncturing procedure and puncturing vectors defined in the standard DAB system for compatibility. The performance of a new system is compared to that of the conventional system under the frequency selective Rician fading channel and the frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel in conjunction with DAB transmission mode I suitable for the terrestrial single frequency network(SFN) broadcasting. The standard system's performance was improved with the aid of turbo codec.

Surveillance is an enabler of safety with respect to aircraft separation and as a consequence capacity and efficiency with respect to aircraft operations. The new emerging technology among modern civil aviation surveillance is Multilateration (MLAT) which would affect on the surveillance capacity with both side of surveillance signal and operational properties. Multilateration system is needed to receive the signal which must reach at least 3 ground receivers simultaneously and has the effect that will have on with the ultimate accuracy. In this paper, the principle and the system configuration are reviewed. And its benefit of development is considered with use in situations where it is difficult to locate tranditional radar. This MLAT requires no additional avionics equipment to supply service with more accurate and less expensive. And it is able to enhance performance that meets international standards and extend the investment of air navigation service providers with reducing environmental impact by utilizing a small footprint on existing structures. Finally, it can be added to meet a wide range of coverage requirements and future surveillance needs.

As the Terrestrial DMB(T-DMB) has been launched, service providers are focusing on finding a business model as well as preparing the variety of data services. So, the need for development of the CAS(Conditional Access system) is urgently required and its domestic standardization is also in progress. This Paper proposes design and implementation methods of an Ensemble Re-multiplexer and receiver platform for its verification that can be used for the CAS system in T-DMB. And, with transmitting ensemble stream scrambled by the proposed Ensemble Re-multiplexer, we verified their performance by do-scrambling and decoding according to scramble mode at the receiver platform.
