This research was conducted to see the impact of brightness, polarity, and hue diference on legibility and emotional effcts of the word. In the experiment 1, stimuli with three levels of brightness difference and two-typed polarity were used. The results showed that legibility, aesthetics, and preference increased with increasing brightness difference. In the experiment 2, the same stimuli if experiment 1 included four hues: red, green, blue, yellow. As a result, the effects of brightness and polarity and the interaction effect of brightness and polarity on legibility were significant. Also, the effects of brightness, polarity, and hue and the interaction effect of brightness and hue on aesthetics and preference were significant. These results showed that legibility, aesthetics, and preference increased with increasing brightness difference of word and background and positive polarity was better than negative. Aesthetics and preference rating increased according to the following order: red, blue, green, yellow. In addition, the interaction effect of brightness and polarity on legibility was because reaction time of negative polarity was longer than positive at the small brightness difference condition. The interaction effect of brightness and hue on aesthetics and preference ws because the aesthetics rating of hue at the large brightness difference condition had significant difference compared with small brightness difference. In the experiment 3, participants rated text designs and simple color stimuli with 18 emotional adjectives to see the similarity of their emotion. The conclusion was that to reflect the subjective feelings of a rotor on the text design, it would be appropriate to use the rotor on background of the text design.

Luby transform (LT) codes are a class of ratelss codes, and they have capability of generating infinite length of parities with a given information length. These rateless codes can be effectively utilized to provide broadcasting and multicasting services where each user is in a different channel condition. For this reason, there have been a number of researches on the application of rateless codes for satellite systems. In this paper, by considering the current research status on rateless codes, we present VHLD implementation results of LT codes, for future hardware implementation for satellite systems. The results demonstrated in this paper can be utilized as a basic information on efficient utilization of rateless codes in the future satellite systems.

HEVC(High Efficient Video Coding) has twice times better compression ratio than H.264/AVC, but since the computational complexity has significantly increased in the encoder side, it may cause difficulty in real-time SW implementation in the encoder side. This paper proposes two methods about fast intra prediction. First, fast mode and prediction unit decision method using transform coefficients of the original block is proposed. and second, fast prediction unit decision method using coded block flag(cbf) is proposed. The proposed method achieves 42% encoder speed up with 0.8% bitrate increase compared with HM16.0.

In this paper, we propose a computationally efficient early stopping method to reduce the average number of iterations. The conventional early stopping methods have too much computational complexity to compute the stopping criterion. Thus, only the hard decision based early stopping method is suitable to realize the hardware of LDPC decoder. However, this method also can increase the computational complexity of LDPC decoder. The proposed method can effectively reduce the computational complexity of stopping criterion as we do not compute hard decision, and we combine the stopping criterion with horizontal shuffling scheduling decoding scheme. The simulation results show that a new early stopping method achieves acceptable bit error rate performance also reduces the average number of iterations.

본 논문에서는 기존 AVC 보다 50% 압축성능 향상을 목표로 표준화가 진행되고 있는 차세대표준인 HEVC 부호화기의 속도를 높이기 위한 방안으로, HEVC 의 기술 중 화면 분할 기술인 타일(Tile)을 기반으로 효율적으로 부호화기를 병렬화하는 구조를 제안한다. 부호화기에서 복잡도가 높은 율왜곡 기반 모드 결정 과정을 멀티코어 병렬프로그래밍으로 구현하고, 병렬처리에 의한 속도 개선 결과를 제시한다. 타일은 병렬처리를 지원하기 위해 HEVC 가 채택한 구조로, 화면을 여러 개로 분할하여 부/복호화 할 수 있어 병렬처리 단위로 적합하며, 표준화의 기고서를 통해 화면분할로 인한 압축성능 변화량은 여러 차례 보고되고 있다. 본 논문의 결과에 의하면 타일의 수만큼 쓰레드를 생성하여 각 타일 단위로 율왜곡 기반 부호화 모드 결정을 하도록 병렬화 하였을 때 기존 참조 소프트웨어 대비 12 개의 쓰레드 생성 시 6 배의 속도 개선을 보인다. 향후 병렬로 처리할 수 있는 모듈을 확장하면 쓰레드 수 증가에 따른 속도개선 효과가 증대되어 부호화기 실용화를 위한 실시간 부호화기 개발에 한 걸음 다가갈 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

We propose a new code-based publick key encryption scheme. It is obtained by modifying the Augot and Finiasz scheme proposed at Eurocrypt 2003. We replace the Reed-Solomon codes with general algebraic-geometry codes and employ Guruswami-Sudan decoding algorithm for decryption. The scheme is secure against Colon's attack or Kiayias and Yung's attack to which the Augot and Finiasz scheme is vulnerable. Considering basic attacks aprlied to the Augot and Finiasz scheme, we claim that the proposed scheme provides similar security levels as the Augot and Finiasz scheme was claimed to provide for given key lengths.

This paper investigates the impact of the channel variations and channel estimation errors on the error performance of convolutional coded STBC systems. We consider the orthogonal Almouti STBC and the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC, and the error performance of the convolutional coded STBC system is investigated according to the channel variation and channel estimation error via numerical simulations. Simulation results show that, if the channel variation speed is slow, time diversity effects improve the error performance compared to the static-channel cases. However, if the channel variation speed is fast, unlike ZF or MMSE detection, the conventional STBC detection has the significant performance degradation especially with the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC. Further, the error performance of the system is significantly degraded as the channel estimation errors become stronger, regardless of the detection scheme and channel variation speed.

In this paper, we propose a syndrome decoding scheme that can correct two errors for single error correcting Hamming codes within a code length. The decoding scheme proposed in this paper has the advantage of significantly improving the error rate performance compared to the decoder complexity by correcting multiple errors without substantially increasing the decoding complexity. It is suitable for applications in which the energy use of encoder/decoder is extremely limited and the low error rate performance is required, such as IoT communications and molecular communications. In order to verify the improvement of the error rate performance of the Hamming code with the proposed decoding scheme, we performed simulation on Hamming codes with short code length in the AWGN and BPSK modulation environments. As a result, compared with the conventional decoding method, the proposed decoding scheme showed performance improvement of about 1.1 ~ 1.2[dB] regardless of the code length of the Hamming code.

In this paper, we show that performance can be improved by using multiple antennas in the conventional orthogonal code hopping multiplexing (OCHM) scheme, which was proposed for accommodating a larger number of users with low channel activities than the number of orthogonal codewords used in code division multiple access (CDMA)-based communication systems through downlink statistical multiplexing. First, we introduce two different types of OCHM systems together with orthogonal codeword allocation strategies, and then derive their mathematical expression for log-likelihood ratio (LLR) values according to the two different schemes. Next, when a turbo encoder based on the LLR computation is used, we evaluate performance on the frame error rate (FER) for the aformentioned OCHM system. For comparison, we also show performance for the existing symbol mapping method using multiple antennas, which was used in 3GPP standards. As a result, it is shown that our OCHM system with multiple antennas based on the proposed orthogonal codeword allocation strategy leads to performance gain over the conventional system---energy required to satisfy a target FER is significantly reduced.

In this paper, the protograph-based block low density parity check (LDPC) code, which improves the performance and reduces the encoder/decoder complexity than the conventional Digital Video Broadcasting Satellite Second Generation (DVB-S2) LDPC code used for the marine satellite communication, is proposed. The computer simulation results verify that the proposed protograph-based LDPC code has the better performance in both the bit error rate (BER) and the frame error rate (FER) than the conventional DVB-S2 LDPC code. Furthermore, by analyzing the encoding and decoding computational complexity, we show that the protograph-based block LDPC code has the efficient encoder/decoder structure.
