Amount of power generated from solar photovoltaic can vary according to solar flux of sunlight due to nature of solar cell panel, and an angle that the sun and the surface of cell makes brings difference in amount of power generation. Solar flux is decided by location of surface of the Earth that is classified into longitude and latitude, but on the other hand, an angle that the sung and the surface of cell makes can be changed by changing the angle of a solar power generation device at the fixed location. A method of changing the angle of a solar power generation device as a measure for improving practical power generation efficiency. and studies about a solar tracking device for this are in active. This study conducted a research on a solar tracking system for improvement of solar power generation efficiency. A solar tracking system of this study is composed of a sensor part to confirm a location of the sun with a semiconductor photosensor using the photo conductive effect, and it analyzed output signal of a sensor by using microprocessor and it produced a control signal of driving part for tracking the sun. A solar power generator (25W) was produced to analyze performance of a solar tracking system and usefulness of a solar tracking device that was designed and produced in this study was confirmed through experiments.

In this paper, I propose an efficient data search system using data partitioning algorithm in Microsoft Excel. I propose searching algorithm to retrieve data quickly using VBA functioning in the Excel. This algorithm is to specify the sheet you are looking for. Once the sheet is specified, the algorithm searches the beginning and the end of the data in the sheet. The algorithm compares intermediate values and key words, from the starting position of the cell. In this way, it will search data to the end. This proposed algorithm was implemented and tested in the Excel system using VBA program. The experimental results showed that the performance was better than that of the conventional sequential search method.

비종관 관측자료인 기상위성 및 레이더 분석자료에서 위성영상에서 볼 수 있는 서해남부 해상의 스콜라인 형태의 강한 대류운을 무안-진도 레이더 반사도에 의한 수평 및 연직 구조로 살펴보았는데 특히 발달한 대류운 영역이 보다 상세한 반사도 차이로 나타나고, 40 dBZ 이상 강한 반사도 셀이 고도 6km, 20km 정도의 수평규모를 갖는 여러 대류운시스템이 합쳐진 다중세포시스템으로 구성되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 연구용 X-대역 무안 레이더 반사도 분포를 보면 사이트 주면에 강한 dBZ의 대류운이 자리하고 있어 발달한 강수입자에 의한 감쇄효과 때문에 북서방향과 남서방향의 강한 대류운들이 약하게 잘못 관측되고 있음을 볼 수 있었지만 S-대역 진도 레이더는 발달한 강수 입자에 크게 영향을 받지 않고 고유의 강한 반사도를 제대로 관측하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같이 태풍에 의한 직${\cdot}$간접적인 호우, 장마전선의 활성화에 따른 집중호우를 동반하는 중규모대류운시스템에 대해 정확히 정량적으로 판단할 수는 없지만, 관측자료 분석을 통해 중규모대류운시스템을 발달${\cdot}$유지시킬 수 있는 기구의 존재 가능성을 체계적으로 이해하는데 많은 도움이 되었다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 레이더 반사도와 3차원 바람장 그리고 마이크로강우레이더와 광학강우강계에 의한 연직 구름계와 순간적으로 발생하는 강수특성 등 섬세하고 다양한 비종관 관측자료를 이용하여 집중호우를 유발하는 중규모대류운시스템의 강수 구조와 특성 분석 및 예측에 활용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.

This paper proposes an adaptive multislot allocation algorithm in order to achieve larger system capacity and higher throughput data transmissions. The proposed system is the combination of the slow adaptive modulation system, in which the base station dynamically assigns optimum modulation parameters measuring the SNR of each transmission terminal, and the multislot allocation scheme, in which the base station flexibly allocates an appropriate number of TDMA data slots according to the instantaneous load conditions. Computer simulations confirm that the proposed system can tremendously improve average message delay characteristics in comparison with the conventional fixed slot allocation method.

A medium access control protocol is proposed for integrated voice and data services in the packet CDMA network with a small coverage. Uplink channels are composed of time slots and multiple spreading codes for each slot. This protocol gives higher access priority to the delay-sensitive voice traffic than to the data traffic. During a talkspurt, voice terminals reserve a spreading code to transmit multiple voice packets. On the other hand, whenever generating a data packet, data terminals transmit a packet based on the status Information of spreading codes in the current slot, which is received from base station. In this protocol, voice packet does not come into collision with data packet. Therefore, this protocol can increase the maximum number of voice terminals.

In this paper, wireless channel characteristics of massive MIMO system is analyzed by comparing angular spread, cross polarization discrimination(XPD) and delay spread of dual polarized 4 and 128 transmit array antenna systems, by using 3D rat-tracing simulator, Wireless Insite in microcell environments. The analysis shows that increasing the number of transmit antennas results in the smaller angular spread and delay spread, and the higher value of XPD.

Flexible solar cells have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to their wide applications such as portable batteries, wearable devices, robotics, drones, and airplanes. In particular, the demands of the flexible silicon and compound semiconductor solar cells with high efficiency and high reliability keep increasing. In this study, we fabricated a flexible InGaP/GaAs double-junction solar module. Then, the effects of the wind speed and ambient temperature on the operating temperature of the solar cell were analyzed with the numerical simulation. The temperature distributions of the solar modules were analyzed for three different wind speeds of 0 m/s, 2.5 m/s, and 5 m/s, and two different ambient temperature conditions of 25℃ and 33℃. The flexibility of the flexible solar module was also evaluated with the bending tests and numerical bending simulation. When the wind speed was 0 m/s at 25 ℃, the maximum temperature of the solar cell was reached to be 149.7℃. When the wind speed was increased to 2.5 m/s, the temperature of the solar cell was reduced to 66.2℃. In case of the wind speed of 5 m/s, the temperature of the solar cell dropped sharply to 48.3℃. Ambient temperature also influenced the operating temperature of the solar cell. When the ambient temperature increased to 33℃ at 2.5 m/s, the temperature of the solar cell slightly increased to 74.2℃ indicating that the most important parameter affecting the temperature of the solar cell was heat dissipation due to wind speed. Since the maximum temperatures of the solar cell are lower than the glass transition temperatures of the materials used, the chances of thermal deformation and degradation of the module will be very low. The flexible solar module can be bent to a bending radius of 7 mm showing relatively good bending capability. Neutral plane analysis was also indicated that the flexibility of the solar module can be further improved by locating the solar cell in the neutral plane.

Various full-scale radio location systems have been developed since ground-based radio navigation systems appeared during World War II, and more recently global positioning systems (GPS) have been widely used as a representative location system. In addition, radio location systems based on cellular systems are intensively being studied as cellular services become more and more popular. However, these studies have been focused mainly on macrocellular systems of which based stations are mutually synchronized. There has been no study about systems of which based stations are asynchronous. In this paper, we proposed two radio location algorithms in microcellular CDMA systems of which base stations are asychronous. The one is to estimate the position of a personal station at the center of rectangular shaped area which approximates the realistic common area. The other, as a method based on road map, is to first find candidate positions, the centers of roads pseudo-range-distant from the base station which the personal station belongs to and then is to estimate the position by monitoring the pilot signal strengths of neighboring base stations. We compare these two algorithms with three wide-spread algorithms through computer simulations and investigate interference effect on measuring pseudo ranges. The proposed algorithms require no recursive calculations and yield smaller position error than the existing algorithms because of less affection of non-line-of-signt propagation in microcellular environments.
