In this paper, we propose a harmful bird repellent system using directional speakers. Existing sound systems for the extermination of harmful birds have the disadvantage of reducing effectiveness due to the learning effect of birds due to problems caused by noise pollution and monotonous sounds. In this paper, directional speakers are used to minimize surrounding noise. In addition, the up-down and left-right angles of the speaker driving device were freely adjusted to maximize usability. Additionally, the problem of performance degradation due to learning effects was solved by using various scanning patterns. In the future, we plan to develop a platform capable of central control by applying remote control functions and a deep learning model that can recognize bird species.

A rapid growth of mobile devices and a proliferation of wireless networks lead to changing the existing environment into a mobile environment. Expansion of mobile environment makes a pressing need of mobile databases, and there are several solutions to achieve it. But they still accompany with some problems. Especially, the current synchronization server that manages consistently many mobile database management systems is based on the centralized method to synchronize data between the mobile database systems. It is the major factor that causes the lower performance of the whole system. Furthermore, the fault tolerance has not been considered in the existing systems. Therefore, we suggest the mobile agent-based mobile database system in order to resolve the problems. The system, we propose in this paper, provides the high-performance of the whole system by mobile grouping, and also may support a fault-tolerance management method.

For the construction materials, concrete, as the most widely used material, is focused on its improvement of performance. Although concrete has many advantages of easiness of handling, economical benefits, and high compressive strength, low tensile strength, brittleness and drying shrinkage are reported as the drawbacks of concrete. Hence, to solve these drawbacks of concrete, many research has conducted especially using fiber-reinforced concrete technology. Especially, HPFRCC which has high volume of fiber reinforcement was suggested as a solution of these drawbacks of normal concrete with increased ductility while it has the possibility of workability loss with fiber clumping which can cause low performance of concrete. Therefore, in this paper, optimized fiber combination with either or both metal and organic fibers is suggested to provide better performance of HPFRCC in tensile strength and ductility. As the results of experiment, better workability was achieved with 1 % of single fiber rather than multiple fibers combinations, espeically, short steel fiber showed the best workability result. Furthermore, in the case of organic fibers which showed higher air content than steel fibers, higher compressive strength was achieved while lower tensile and flexural strength were shown.

최근 기후 변화 문제로 $CO_2$배출량 억제 정책에 따라 열전재료가 다양한 분야에 크게 주목 받고 있다. 열전 모듈은 전류를 흘려 온도차를 발생시키는 펠티어 효과와 온도차를 전력으로 변환하는 제백 효과를 이용한다. 열전발전용에 적용되는 상용 열전모듈의 경우, 열전소자의 접합부의 수는 수십 개 이상이다. 따라서 단 한 개의 접합 불량 열전소자가 모듈 전체의 열전성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재 상용화 된 Bi-Te계 열전 모듈은 Bi-Te의 Te와 Sn계 솔더의 주성분인 Sn이 $250^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 취성의 Sn-Te계 금속 화합물을 형성한다고 알려져 있다. 이 때 생성된 Sn-Te 화합물은 열전모듈의 접합강도를 약화시키고 이로 인해 열전모듈의 접합 신뢰성을 크게 저하 시킬 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 솔더와 소자 사이에 확산방지층이 적용되고 있으며, 이 중에서 니켈합금이 가장 널리 적용되고 있다. 니켈층을 형성시키는 방법 중에서, 무전해 도금법은 간단하게 열전소자 표면 위에 도금 층을 균일한 두께로 만들어 낼 수 있다. 하지만, 니켈 도금층과 Bi-Te 소자 간에 화학적 결함이 존재하지 않기 때문에, 무전해 니켈 도금층의 밀착성이 떨어진다. 이 때. 소자 표면에 거칠기 효과(anchor effect)를 부여하기 위해 물리적 샌딩법을 사용하는데 이 방법의 경우 소자에 크랙 같은 손상을 미쳐 열전모듈의 신뢰성 저하를 가져온다. 그러므로 거칠기 효과를 부여하면서 소자에 손상을 최소화하는 습식 식각법을 개발하여 Bi-Te계 열전소자의 표면 조도를 조절하고 무전해 Ni-P 도금을 실시하였다. 그리고 열처리 유무에 따른 열전모듈의 접합강도를 측정하였으며, 제작한 열전 모듈의 접합부 및 파단부의 계면 분석하여 무전해 Ni-P도금을 위한 습식식각법(wet etching법)에 대하여 검토하였다. N-type은 질산과 구연산의 혼합수용액에, P-type은 왕수에 습식 식각처리를 해서 적당히 표면 조도를 조절한 후에 EPMA로 분석을 해본 결과 니켈 도금층과 Bi-Te 소자 간에 anchor effect가 부여 된 것을 확인했다. 습식 식각에 의해서 제조된 열전모듈의 접합강도는 종래의 알루미나 샌딩법으로 제조한 열전모듈 보다 높은 접합강도를 나타내었다.

The goal of OSIC-series detection methods is to approach the ML performance with feasible complexity. However, since they sometimes suffer from the empty vector problem, they can not achieve the soft-output ML performance or many candidate vectors are required to achieve the soft-output ML performance. In this paper, we propose the novel detection method, which can generate the reliable soft-outputs without suffering from empty vector problem. The proposed detector can approach the near soft-output ML performance as well as hard-output. Further, the complexity study shows that the proposed detection method has the lowest complexity compared to the other detectors having the near ML performance.

The reception quality of broadcasting in car radio system may become poor due to the noise such as week signal strength, multipath, Adjacent Channel and so on. To improve this, some european nations and US. serve RDS(Radio Data System) on FM radio, AF(Alternative Frequency) and PI(Programme Identification) code contained information in RDS data are used to switch to the broadcasting having the best reception quality. There are many techniques and studies of maintaining the best reception quality. But many previous techniques are no longer the best way because RF chips are improved every year and noise components can be distinguished in detail. So this research will suggest the best switching technique to maintain the best reception quality.

With the advent of high speed networking technology, computers connected to the high-speed networks tend to consume more of their CPU cycles to process data. So one of the solutions to improve the performance of the computers is to reduce the CPU cycles for processing the data. As the consumption of the CPU cycles is increased in proportion to the number of the packets per second to be processed, reducing the number of the packets per second by increasing the length of the packet is one of the solutions. In order to meet this requirement, two types of jumbo packets such as jumbograms and jumbo frames have already been standardized or being discussed. In case that the jumbograms and general packets are interleaved and scheduled together in a router, the jumbogrms may deteriorate the QoS of the general packets due to the transfer delay. They also frequently exhaust the memory with storing the huge length of the packets. This produces the congestion state easily in the router that results in the loss of the packets. In this paper, we analyze the problems in processing the jumbo packets and suggest a noble solution to overcome the problems.

Due to increase of user requirement for various traffics and the advance of network technology, each distinct network has converge into FMC(Fixed Mobile Convergence) networks. However, we need to research the performance analysis of VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) in the FMC network to provide QoE for the voice user of FMC network. Therefore, this paper introduces the scenario which is the situation of voice quality degradation when a user uses VoIP to communicate with other users in the FMC network. Especially, this paper presents scenario in terms of the component of the network and finds the improvement point of voice quality. In the simulation results, three improvement points of voice quality are found as following: voice quality degradation by packet loss in the physical layer of the HSDPA network, by utilizing GGSN without QoS parameter mapping mechanism which is gateway between 3GPP and IP backbone, and by using non-QoS AP in the WLAN network.

As the IT technology advances, data processing system is required to handle and process large amounts of data. However, the existing On-Disk system has limit to process data which increase rapidly. For that reason, the In-Memory system is being used which saves and manages data on the fast memory not saving data into hard disk. Although it has fast processing capability, it is necessary to use the fault tolerance techniques in the In-Memory system because it has a risk of data loss due to volatility which is one of the memory characteristics. These fault tolerance techniques lead to performance degradation of In-Memory system. In this paper, we classify the data into Hot and Cold data in consideration of the data usage characteristics in the In-Memory system and propose compound backup technique to ensure data persistence. The proposed technique increases the persistence and improves performance degradation.
