The aim of this study was to evaluation the effect of Interactive Metronome(IM) training on executive function for stroke patients. Twenty patients with stroke were randomly assigned to experimental group(n=10) or control group(n=10). The patients in the experimental group received IM training with basic rehabilitation and those in the control group received traditional rehabilitation with basic rehabilitation. The patients were assessed before and after intervention using Kims frontal-executive function neuropsychology test II to evaluate executive function. The result of the present study was experimental group demonstrated more increased than control group in stroop interference, word fluency, delayed recall, executive function quotient(EFQ). Therefore, IM training was effective in improving the executive function. It is deemed that IM training can be usefully applied to improve executive function.

The technology development for ocean resources can be represented by the increase of water depth. TLP, Tension Leg Platform, is one of the most feasible systems for deep sea development. TLPs show a complex dynamic behavior resulting from the dynamic interactions among platform, tether system and riser system due to their hydrodynamic and structural dynamic characteristics in waves. This paper aims at the theoretical and experimental analysis on motion response of TLP in waves. It is composed of two parts as follows ；(1) wave and wave loadings (2) TLP motion.

In this paper, the adaptive chirp beamforming method is proposed to solve the bias problem in the direction-of-arrivals (DOAs) estimation of the wideband chirp signals which have an identical time-frequency parameter and are emanated from different directions. The source location bias results from the interferences impinging on the array from the other directions. The proposed method exploits the time-frequency structure of the chirp signal based on STMV (STeered Minimum Valiance) to improve the DOA estimation performance by minimizing the chirp interferences effectively. Simulation results show the DOA estimation performance achieved by the proposed method as compared to the conventional methods.

Intra-block remarshalling is the task of rearranging into some target bays those containers which are scattered within around the block. If multiple transfer cranes installed in the block are all used together we may be able to complete the remarshalling task as early as possible. However, when multiple cranes are used simultaneously, there may occur significant delays if we do not carefully consider interferences between the cranes at the time of scheduling. Especially, delays caused by interferences occur more frequently in case of using non-crossing cranes. This paper presents an efficient heuristics method for assigning moves of containers to each crane and for determining an appropriate container moving order in a manner sensitive to the interferences. Simulation experiments have shown that the proposed method can effectively reduce delays in various environments.

We propose 2-channel filter bank method instead of FFT method to decrease sub-channel interference for using of efficient frequency resource in MC-CDMA method. Since a prototype filter of filter bank having wavelet characteristic is designed having more less side-lobe, the nearest co-channel interference and inter symbol interference are decreased efficiently. Since the spreading signal of suggesting MC-CDMA system is being demanded for less chip rate and is not being considering for autocorrelation characteristic, the Walsh code can be used as a optimal orthogonal signal set. We consider bit error rate and signal to noise ratio to estimate the performance of suggested system on condition that white noise channel and arbitrary sinusoidal jammer are existing. As a result of comparing to traditional FFT-based MC-CDMA simulation result, our suggested system has shown better performance than traditional MC-CDMA method on the side of minimizing interference effect.

An FM radio based PCL system is a passive radar technique for detecting the multiple moving targets from FM radio signals and tracking the trajectories of the targets by calculating the cross-correlation function of direct-path signal and target echo signals. However, the interference signals are received from a surveillance channel, which is designed to receive the target echo signals. Because of this problem, the target echo signals are masked by the strong interference signals and this makes it difficult to detect the true targets from the cross-correlation function. Adaptive filters are known as effective methods for suppressing the interference signals but there is a problem to present their accurate performances in the PCL system because many literatures used the cross-correlation function and the ratio of input and output power as a measure of the performance analysis. In this paper, a performance analysis method is proposed to evaluate the performance of interference cancellation algorithms. By using the property that each component of the filter weight vector is adjusted to suppress the specific interference signal, a performance measure of the interference signal suppression is defined by a function of adaptive filter weights. Based on the proposed method, we compare the performance of the adaptive filters used in the PCL system. Simulation results show that the proposed method can be very effective for evaluating the performance of interference cancellation algorithms.

In this paper, minimum mean-square-error (MMSE)-based transceiver processing of a bidirectional amplify-and-forward (AF) relay having multiple antennas is proposed. Besides, the optimal beamforming vectors of users are designed in the sense of the sum rate maximization. Simulation results show that the proposed relay processing can effectively reduce both co-channel interferences and self-interferences and that the proposed beamforming method is proper to the bidirectional communication employing the AF relay.

최근 전파통신 기술의 급속한 발전과 경제적 수준의 향상에 따라 다양한 무선국에 대한 수요가 증가한고 있는 가운데 미약한 전력의 전파를 발사하는 미약무선국은 무선국 개설시 허가나 신고가 필요없는 무선국으로 산업활동과 일상생활 속에서 좁은 서비스 반경을 가지고 음성 및 데이터 전송용, 장비의 원격제어용 등의 용도로 사용범위가 확산되어가고 있는 추세이다. 미약무선국의 폭넓은 활용은 국내 전파산업의 육성과 국민의 사회적 활동 및 일상생활의 편의도모등, 많은 긍정적인 효과를 가지고 있지만 무분별한 미약무선국의 사용으로 인한 전파발사는 무선국의 상호간에 간섭을 일으켜 통신품질을 현저히 낮게 하거나 통신자체를 불가능하게 만드는 등 심각한 부작용을 초래할 수 있다. 그러므로 각 국은 미약무선국의 발사 전파로 인한 간섭으로부터 기존의 무선국을 보호하고 한정된 주파수 자원을 효과적으로 사용하여 관련 전파산업의 건전한 발전과 육성을 도모할 목적으로 미약무선국의 사용 주파수와 그에 따른 발사전파의 출력을 제한하는 관련 전파법규를 가지고 있다. 국내의 경우는 전파법 시행령 제56조 2항 1호에 측전거리 3미터를 기준으로 사용 주파수 대별로 전계강도 기준값이 설정되어 있고 2호에는 500미터 전계강도 기준값이 규정되어 있는데, 본 글에서는 전파법 시행법 제 56조 2항 1호와 2호에 해당하는 무선국을 미약무선국이라고 정의한다.

The error rate equation fo DS-BPSK(Direct Sequence Binary Phase Shift Keying) signal transmitted through the nonlinear satellite transponder has been derived in the cochannel interference and downlink Gaussian noise environment. The input to the satellite transponder is the superposition of DS-BPSK signal with one interfere which is a cochannel wide-band PN signal. The error rate performance of DS-BPSK system has been evaluated and shown in figures in terms of carrier to interference power ratio(CIR), downlink signal to noise power ratio(downlink SNR) and process gain. In the analysis, it has been shown that the use of a hard limiter in DS-BPSK satellite system leads to the generation of narrow-band intermodulation products which is independent of the process gain. Also it is known that the error rate performance can be improved in the low levels (below 10dB) of CIR as the CIR increase. As the process gain varies from 10 to 100 the curve gives the about 10 dB gain in downlink SNR to maintain a fixed error rate.
