본 연구에서는 수심센서가 장착된 고성능 GPS 전자부자를 활용하여 하천 수리량 측정에 대한 방법과, 개발 된 고성능 GPS 전자부자의 성능 검증을 위해서 수리량 측정장비인 Flowtracker 측정데이터와 비교분석을 하고자 하였다. 국내 하천환경에서의 수리량 조사는 필수적인 요소이다. 최근 국내 첨단기술을 활용한 수리량 계측 기술들은 ADCP, ADV, UVM, SIV와 같은 많은 계측 기술들이 있다. 이러한 기술들은 장비가 매우고가이며, 많은 시간과 인력이 필요하고 상황에 따른 한계점들이 존재한다. 이러한 수리량 계측 기술들은 오일러리안 타입 계측 방식의 측정으로 계측 구간이 한정되어 있어 수질 오염사고와 같은 장구간의 지속적인 정보가 필요한 하천상황에 따라 라그랑지안 방식의 계측도 필요하다. 본 연구에서 개발 된 고성능 GPS 전자부자는 IoT 기술이 접목되어 실시간 데이터 활용이 가능하며 실시간 데이터 분석을 통해 라그랑지안 타입의 장구간 계측이 가능하다. 고성능 GPS 전자부자는 외경 197mm 지름 88mm, 무게 700g 이내로 간편하게 소지 및 사용 시 투척이 간단하여 인력 및 현장 접근성에 대한 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 기존 선행 연구들의 GPS 전자부자들의 경우 홍수 발생 시에 유량 측정에서 어려움이 있었기 때문에 본 연구에서 개발된 고서은 GPS 전자부자의 경우 수심센서의 장착으로 유량까지 산정할 수 있기 때문에 홍수 발생이나, 오염물질 발생으로 인한 접근성이 어려운 하천상황에서 유용하게 사용될 수 있다. 고성능 GPS 전자부자를 활용하여 중·소하천인 경북 김천 및 구미시에 위치한 감천에서 성능 평가를 진행하였으며 Flowtracker 수리량 측정 데이터 대비 오차율이 10% 이내로 들어오는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 성능 검증을 바탕으로 고성능 GPS 전자부자를 활용한 측정법을 제시하였다.

This study is an experimental study to investigate the effect of the body's posture balance through the activity of the proximal vertebrae after conducting a hot spring bath once a week for 4 weeks in 8 college students in their 20s in Gangwon. Using the Win-Track program. As a result of the experiment, before the hot spring bath, the area of the foot supporting the weight was relatively wider than after the hot spring bath, and in the pressure change, both the maximum value and the average pressure value were lower than after the hot spring. As a result of the experiment, the area of the foot supporting the weight and the pressure change of the foot were found due to the near-spine activity. It can be applied to an efficient therapeutic training program for patients with difficulties in maintaining a balanced posture.

In an indoor localization method taking the lateration-based approach, the location of a target is estimated with the location of anchor points (APs) and the approximated distances between the target and APs using received signal strength (RSS) measurements. The accuracy of distance estimation affects the localization accuracy of a lateration-based method. Since a radio propagation environment varies randomly in time and space, the highest RSSs do not necessarily give the best estimation of the distances between a target and APs. Thus, all APs hearing a target have been used for localization. However, the accuracy of a lateration-based method degrades if more APs beyond a certain threshold are used because the area of polygon with the APs increases. In this paper, we focus on reducing the size of the polygon to further increase the localization accuracy. We use the centroid of the polygon as a reference point to estimate the relative location of a target in the polygon. Once the relative location is estimated, only the APs which are closest to the target are used for localization to reduce the area of the polygon with the APs. We validate the proposed method by implementing an indoor localization system and evaluating the accuracy of the proposed method in the various experimental environments.

Enterprise which is rapidly growing in Korea is hesitating because of economic depression lately. Large enterprise have been successfully growing with Korea economic growth for fifty years. But many of them have already gone bankrupt and face the crisis of management, many people look away from them. Large enterprise come to face the time which they strongly need the improvement of their image against the devalation of their one. It is more important to use external periodicals than excess PR advertisement for the improvement of the image. External periodicals is aimed at readers who is outside of company and company PR advertisement, the purpose of issuing external periodicals is to improve the image of enterprise by arranging organization, draw attention from people (PR) and produce profit by acceleration marketing. People is much interested in external periodicals(free) under the situation of IMF because they can easily get information from that. So the role of external periodicals become more important for enterprise PR. This paper shows the importance of the edit design in external periodicals. We analysed the edit design (five group) per composition factor, suggest the improvement plan. ·The distinction of cover. ·Clear, beautiful typographic arrangement. ·The specialty of Photo and illustration. · Characteristic & standard layout. Now external periodicals is getting important because it shows the idea and character of company to people (PR). So it need characteristic plan and creative layout with the impotance by the understanding of the executive in company and also more does creation & originality by edit designer day by day. External periodicals should be not only the improvement of the image but also leading information paper which sensitively cope which an age by news and editing which can match people's need.

The regulation of media concentration which is provided in the German Interstate Treaty on Broadcasting (RStV) is part of the rules forming the "positive broadcasting order" required by German Constitutional Law. This control ensures that the diversity of viewpoints can be articulated to the public. Broadcasting must operate independently from the state and from particular social groups if it is to be a genuine service to the public. One risk of economic competition in the media is a tendency towards the concentration of business enterprises. Moreover, economic competition is no guarantee for journalistic diversity. The aim of balanced diversity in the broadcasting sector can only be pursued by creating conditions under which different voices obtain the chance to be heard in an equitable manner. Within the framework of the meaning of section 26, it shall be assumed that there is a predominant impact on public opinion if the programs attributable to one company reach an annual audience share of 30 percent. The same shall apply if the company reaches an audience share of 25 percent and holds a dominant position in a related media-market or an overall assessment of its activities in television. The restriction of audience shares has limits such as that the audience shares of news programs and education and entertainment programs are pooled. Therefore, there is a vagueness about the productivity of different program branches.

In the future network such as Internet of Things (IoT), the number of computing devices are expected to grow exponentially, and each of the things communicates with the others and acquires information by itself. Due to the growing interest in IoT applications, the broadcasting in Opportunistic ad-hoc networks such as Machine-to-Machine (M2M) is very important transmission strategy which allows fast data dissemination. In distributed networks for IoT, the energy efficiency of the nodes is a key factor in the network performance. In this paper, we propose a fuzzy logic based probabilistic multi-hop broadcast (FPMCAST) algorithm which statistically disseminates data accordingly to the remaining energy rate, the replication density rate of sending node, and the distance rate between sending and receiving nodes. In proposed FPMCAST, the inference engine is based the fuzzy rule base which is consists of 27 if-then rules. It maps input and output parameters to membership functions of input and output. The output of fuzzy system defines the fuzzy sets for rebroadcasting probability, and defuzzification is used to extract a numeric result from the fuzzy set. Here Center of Gravity (COG) method is used to defuzzify the fuzzy set. Then, the performance of FPMCAST is evaluated through a simulation study. From the simulation, we demonstrate that the proposed FPMCAST algorithm significantly outperforms flooding and gossiping algorithms. Specially, the FPMCAST algorithm has longer network lifetime because the residual energy of each node consumes evenly.

For accurate speed and current control in industrial applications, SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) is very important to synchronize the stator phase excitation and rotor position in the drive due to its nature. In general, position sensors such as encoder and resolver are used to generate rotational force by exciting the stator winding according to the rotor position and to control the motor by using speed and position information. However, for these sensors, 1) the cost of the sensors is quite large in terms of price, so the proportion of the motor system to the total system cost is high. 2) In terms of mechanical, position sensors such as encoders and resolvers are attached to the stator to increase the size and weight. In conclusion, in order to drive the SRM, control based on the rotor position information should be basically performed, and it is important to design the SRM driving system according to the environment in consideration of the application field. Therefore, in this paper, we intend to study the driving and control characteristics of SRM through variable switching duty control by designing a low-cost analog driving device, deviating from the general control system using the conventional encoder and resolver.
