LDPC (low density parity check) code shows near Shannon limit performance by iterative decoding based on sum-product algorithm (SPA). Message updating procedure between variable and check nodes in SPA is done by a scheduling method. LDPC code shows different performance according to scheduling schemes. The conventional researches have been shown that the shuffled BP (belief propagation) algorithm shows better performance than the standard BP algorithm although it needs less number of iterations. However the reason is not analyzed clearly. Therefore the reason of difference in performance according to LDPC decoding algorithms is analyzed in this paper. 4 cases according to satisfaction of parity check condition are considered and compared. As results, the difference in the updating procedure in a cycle in the parity check matrix is considered to be the main reason of performance difference.

The Turbo decoders based on Log-MAP decoding algorithm inherently requires large amount of memory and intensive complexity of hardware due to iterative decoding, despite of excellent decoding efficiency. To decrease the large amount of memory and reduce hardware complexity, the result of previous research. And this paper design the Turbo decoder applicable to the 3G W-CDMA systems. Through the result of previous research, we decided 5-bits for the received data 6-bits for a priori information, and 7-bits for the quantization state metrics. The error correction term for $MAX^{*}$ operation which is the main function of Log-MAP decoding algorithm is implemented with very small hardware overhead. The proposed Turbo decoder is synthesized in $0.35\mu$m Hynix CMOS technology. The synthesized result for the Turbo decoder shows that it supports a maximum 9Mbps data rate, and a BER of $10^{-6}$ is achieved(Eb/No=1.0dB, 5 iterations, and the interleaver size $\geq$ 2000).

The purpose of this paper is to review vestibulo-ocular reflex and vestibular rehabilitation for balace problem in elderly. Falling is a common problem associated with aging. Falling and the resulting consequences constitutes one of the most common and serious problems. Balance deficits are one of the top risk factors for falling. Three systems(visual, vestibular and somatosensory) need to be integrated and used to coordinate and control balance. During normal ambulation and head movement, the vestibulo-ocular reflex(VOR) stabilizes gaze, and helps to keep the image of the retina. There is a direct association between deficits in VOR and falls. Older adults have a decreased ability to enhance and suppress the VOR. Vestibular rehabilitation(VR) is an exercise-based group of approaches that began with the aim of central nervous system compensation. VR restores VOR gain and reduces error using repetitive movements of the head and eyes. Many researches showd balance and gait tests were superior in the VR group. It is considered this article helps to prevent elderly falling with vestibular rehabilitation.

In this paper, an improved architecture of turbo codec for IMT-2000 is proposed. The encoder consists of an interleaver using an on-the-fly type address generator and a modified shift register instead of an external RAM, and the decoder uses a decreased number of RAM. The proposed architecture is simulated with C/VHDL languages, where BER (bit-error-rate) performances are generally in agreement with previous data by varying interaction numbers, interleaver block sizes and code rates.

본 논문은 현재 국내 디지털 오디오 방송의 잠정 표준으로 채택된 Eureka-147 시스템에서의 멀티미디어 전송 프로토콜 규약인 MOT(Multimedia Object Transfer) 프로토콜을 적용하여 멀티미디어 파일을 전송할 경우의 성능 분석 및 파라미터 최적화 방법을 제시하였다. MOT 프로토콜은 멀티미디어 파일을 전송하는 세그먼트 크기, 세그먼트 반복횟수와 같은 파라미터 설정값에 따라서 FER(File Error Ratio)이 변화하므로, 성능을 최적화하기 위한 파라미터 설정이 중요하다. 세그먼트 내에서 비트 사이의 오류 사건이 독립이라는 가정하에서 MOT 파라미터 설정값을 찾는 이론적 수식을 제안하였고, 이동 채널 환경의 시뮬레이션을 통하여 이론식과 비교하였다.

우주환경에서 임무를 수행하는 인공위성의 경우, 조립, 시험, 운용시점까지 위성 표면에 흡착되는 오염물질을 최소화하기 위하여 전 기간 동안 세심한 주의를 기울여야 한다. 위성표면에 흡착된 미세한 오염물질은, 고진공 및 고온, 극저온이 반복되는 가혹한 우주환경 속에서 위성의 성능저하 및 효율의 손실을 가져올 수 있다. 예를 들어 위성 표면에 떨어진 입자오염은 별 추적 장치의 오류를 발생시킴에 따른 위성 자세제어의 실패를 가져올 수도 있고, 표면에 흡착된 분자 오염은 렌즈, 미러, 윈도우 등의 광학기기 및 주요 민감 표면에 작용하여 광학적 특성과 열제어 성능의 저하를 가져올 수 있다. 위성의 조립 및 시험을 관장하는 한국항공우주연구원에서는 위성의 오염물질에 대한 노출을 최소화하기 위해, 오염측정이 이루어지는 청정실을 운용하고 있는데, 본 논문에서는 청정실 및 진공챔버 내의 부유입자측정, 표면입자오염측정, 표면분자오염측정법을 소개하고 오염측정 결과에 대한 분석을 수행하였다.

Recently, as CSMA technique has been increasingly adopted in various wireless networks, extensive researches to analyze the statistical characteristics of CSMA-based wireless networks have been done. Despite the ongoing efforts, there still remain many difficulties in the analysis because of unexpectable operational behavior of CSMA. Previous literature studying CSMA networks used the concept of the carrier sensing radius to reflect the carrier sensing function. However, since the carrier sensing radius based on the protocol model is not affected by the aggregate interference from other nodes, the derived statistical models cannot avoid approximation errors especially if the network is under high interference. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to derive the carrier sensing radius considering the physical model, where the carrier sensing radius reflecting the aggregate interference is found. For the purpose of this, we analyze the aggregate interference model and the behavior of CSMA function. Based on the analysis, we propose an iterative approximation algorithm for the physical carrier sensing radius. Extensive simulations and results show that the proposed algorithm can contribute to considerably reduce the statistical modeling error of a CSMA network under various channel conditions.

A group sequential design can end a clinical trial early if a confirmed efficacy or a futility of study medication is found during clinical trials. Adaptation can adjust the design of clinical trials based on accumulated data. The key to this methodology is considered to control the overall type 1 error rate while maintaining the integrity of clinical trials. The estimation would be more complex and the sample size calculation will be more difficult if the clinical trials have repeated measurement data. Lee et al. (2002) suggested a repeated observation case by using the independent increments properties of the interim test statistics and investigated the properties of the proposed confidence interval based on the stage-wise ordering. This study extend Lee et al. (2002) to adaptive group sequential design. We suggest test statistics for the adaptation as redesigning the second stage of clinical trials and induce the stage-wise confidence interval of parameter of interests. The simulation will help to confirm the suggested method.

This study was to examine how visual angle of matrix corresponding to the physical properties of P300 speller and eye gaze corresponding to the user's personal characteristics influence on the accuracy of P300. Visual angle of the matrix was operated as the distance between the user and the matrix and three groups were composed: 60 cm group, 100 cm groups, and 150 cm group. Eye gaze methods was consisted three conditions. Head moving condition was putting eye gaze using head, pupil moving condition was moving pupil with the head fixed, while the eye fixed condition is to fix the eye gaze at the center of the matrix. The results showed that there was significant difference in the accuracy of P300 speller according to the eye gaze method. The accuracy of the head moving condition was higher than the accuracy of pupil moving conditions, accuracy of pupil moving conditions was higher than the accuracy of the eye fixed conditions. However, the effect of visual angle of matrix and interaction effect were not significant. When P300 amplitude of target character was measured depending on how you stare at the target character, P300 amplitude of the head moving condition was greater than P300 amplitude of the pupil moving condition. There was no significant difference in the error distribution in head moving condition and pupil moving condition, while there was a significant difference between two eye gaze conditions and fixed gaze condition. The error was located at the neighboring characters of the target character in head moving condition and pupil moving condition, while the error was relatively distributed widely in fixed eye condition, error was occurred with high rate in characters far away from the center of matrix.
