This paper analyzes a sequential estimator with flexible structure for rapid acquisition of the m-sequence signals. If the received PN chips stored in the estimator's internal registers as initial loading values include one error, this chip with error can be corrected through multiple local PN code generators to achieve high-speed acquisition performance. Hamming distance between regenerated local PN codes from the proposed system and received PN code is compared with given threshold to choose a possible correct path and to declare success of the code acquisition. Using signal flow graph, average acquisition time that depends on detection and false alarm probability is calculated. By modifying generally used matched filter structure for PN code acquisition, the proposed system provides flexible structure and rapid acquisition process.

A fuzzy logic for collision avoidance of underwater robots is proposed in this paper. The VFF(Virtual Force Field) method, which is widely used in the field of mobile robots, is modified for application to the autonomous navigation of underwater robots. This Modified Virtual Force Field(MVFF) method using the fuzzy logic can be used in either track keeping or obstacle avoidance. Fuzzy logics are devised to handle various situations which can be faced during autonomous navigation of underwater robots. The obstacle avoidance algorithm has the ability to handle multiple static obstacles. Results of simulation show that the proposed method can be efficiently applied to obstacle avoidance of the underwater robots.

P2P 및 Mobile Network, Reputations System 등의 분산 시스템은 sybil attack 에 노출되어 있다. sybil attack 은 한 명의 사용자가 다수의 식별자를 가진 것으로 위장하여 시스템 내에서 마치 실제 다수의 사용자인 양 시스템을 악용하는 공격방법이다. sybil attack 을 막기 위한 다양한 노력이 진행되었고, 최근에 SybilGuard 라는 social network 를 이용한 방어 방법이 제시되었다. SybilGuard 는 악의적인 사용자를 막기 위하여, Random Walk 의 변형이면서 결정적인 경로의 특징을 가지는 임의경로(Random Route)를 사용하여 악의적인 사용자의 sybil attack 을 방어한다. SybilGuard 는 sybil node 의 개수를 제한하고, 이들을 하나의 동일한 그룹으로 분류할 수 있도록 하여 시스템 내에서 가짜 식별자의 개수를 제한한다. 이를 위해 각 노드가 시스템에 돌어올 때 Verifier(V)노드가 이들 노드를 확인하게 되는데, 이를 위해 시스템 내의 선한 노드(Honest Node)를 사용하여 이들을 확인한다. 이 때, honest node 들은 verifier 의 요청에 따라 확인요청을 수행하게 되는데, social network 의 특성상 몇몇 노드들은 사회적인 명망으로 매우 큰 링크수를 가지게 될 것이며, 따라서 이들 노드들이 처리해야할 요청의 양이 매우 많아지게 될 것이다. 따라서 이들 honest node 들 간에 로드분포를 균등하게 하는 것이 요구되며, 이 논문에서는 부하 조절을 하기 위한 기법을 제시하고, 이들을 평가한다.

In the wireless Internet, it is so restrictive to use the IPSec. The MIPv4 IPSec's path cannot include wireless links. That is, the IPSec of the wireless Internet cannot protect an entire path of Host-to-Host connection. Also wireless circumstance keeps a path static during the shorter time, nevertheless, the IKE for IPSec SA agreement requires relatively long delay. The certificate management of IPSec PKI security needs too much burden. This means that IPSec of the wireless Internet is so disadvantageous. Our paper is to construct the Mobile IPSec proper to the wireless Internet which provides the host-to-host transport mode service to protect even wireless links as applying excellent WP-IBE scheme. For this, Mobile IPSec requires a dynamic routing over a path with wireless links. FA Forwarding is a routing method for FA to extend the path to a newly formed wireless link. The FA IPSec SA for FA Forwarding is updated to comply the dynamically extended path using Source Routing based Bind Update. To improve the performance of IPSec, we apply efficient and strong future Identity based Weil Pairing Bilinear Elliptic Curve Cryptography called as WP-IBE scheme. Our paper proposes the modified protocols to apply 6 security-related algorithms of WP-IBE into the Mobile IPSec. Particularly we focus on the protocols to be applied to construct ESP Datagram.

In an attempt to investigate the effect of intermedate principal stresses which are related to the stress-strain behavior of standard sands, a series of three-Principal stress control tests were conducted for individual stress paths. The results have shown that shear strengths of sands vary with the stress paths. The variations in internal friction angle are accorded with the Habibs stress parameter, b which represents Stress paths, showing on abropt increase at the values between 0.0 and 0.268, a moderate level between 0.268 and 0.682, and a slight decrease between 0.682 and 1.0 However, the friction angles under a triaxial extention state, were found relatively larger than under a triaxial compression state. In general, such veriations were found to have the same tendency without any relevant relation with the density of specimens and confining pressures. Therefore, it is concluded, that the shear strength of sands are positively influeced by the intermediate principal stresses present in the media. And the influnce of intermediate principal stresses on shear strengths of sands found from the present study are well compared with the previous studies by Lade-Duncan and Matsuoka-Nakai revealing a similar tendency within the failure criteria proposed by them.

Ball-end milling process is widely used in the die and mold manufacturing because of suitable one for the machining of free-form surface. During the process, the pencil cutting operation can be adopted before finish cut to eliminate overload in uncut area caused by large diameter of ball-end mill. The ball-end mill cutter for the pencil cutting is easily deflected by cutting force due to the long and thin shape, and the tool deflection in pencil cutting is one of the main reason of the machining errors in a free-form surface. The purpose of this study is to find the characteristics of deflected cutter trajectory by constructing measurement system with eddy-current sensor. It was found that the severe reduction of corner radius produced the overcut during the plane cutting. Up cutting method induced the overcut both plane and slope cutting, but down cutting one induced the undercut. From the experiments, down cutting with upward cutting path can generate the small undercut surface.

OFDM is a very attractive technique for achieving high-bit-rate data transmission and high spectrum efficiency in fading environment. However, the reliable detection of an OFDM signal in time-varying multipath fading channels is a challenging problem. Accordingly, various channel estimation methods have been proposed for performance improvement. But, conventional pilot patterns for channel estimation in OFDM systems have not robust characteristics relating to various mobile speed. To solve this drawback in conventional patterns, we propose the pilot patterns modified from conventional patterns to have a good error performance in time-varying fading channel. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed pilot patterns is better than conventional patterns in fast time-varying channel.

The aim of this study is an investigation of the interaction of two micro hole defects affecting fatigue crack initation life and propagation behavior. The locatio of two micro hole defects was considered as an angle of alignment and the distance between the centers of two micro hole defects. The fatigue cracking behavior is experimented under bending. When micro defects are located close to each other, the fatigue crack initiation lives are varied with their relative locations. In the experiments, the area of local plastic strain strongly played a role in the fatigue crack initiation lives. Therefore we introduce a parameter which contains the plastic deformation area at stress concentrations and propose a fatigue crack initiation life prediction curve. In addition, the directions and propagation rates of fatigue cracks initiated at two micro hole defects are studied experimentally.

Solutions of geotechnical engineering problems require predictions of deformation and stresses during various stages of loading. Powerful numerical methods are available to make such predictions even for complicated problems. To get accurate results, realistic stress-strain relationships of soils are dependent on a number of factors such as soil type, density, stress level and stress path. Attempts are continuously being made to develope analytical models for soils incorporating all such factors. Isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests with several stress path for Baekma river sand were performed to investigate stress-strain and volume change characteristics of Lade's single work hardening model dependant on the stress path. In order to predicted of stress-strain and volumetric strain behavior were determined the values of parameters for the mode by the computer program based on the regression analysis. Predicted stress-strain behavior of triaxial compression tests and optional stress path tests for increasing confining pressure with parameters obtained conventional triaxial compression tests agreed with several test results but the prediction results for decreasing confining pressure reduced triaxial compression tests make a little difference with test results.

This paper presents a machining error compensation methodology due to deflection of micro cutting tools in side cutting processes. Generally in order to compensate for tool deflection errors it is necessary to carry out a series of simulations, cutting force prediction, tool deflection estimation and compensation method. These can induce numerous calculations and expensive costs. This study proposes an improved approach which can compensate for machining errors without simulation processes concerning prediction of cutting force and tool deflection. Based on SEM images of test cutting specimens, polynomial relationships between machining errors and corrected tool positions were induced. Taking into account changes of cutting conditions caused by tool position variation, an iterative algorithm was applied in order to determine corrected tool position. Experimental works were carried out to validate the proposed approach. Comparing machining errors of nominal cutting with those of compensated cutting, overall machining errors could be remarkably reduced.
