Aircraft are representative of human-machine systems. There is a delay between the human operation and the completion of the machine operation such as when the machine starts to operate and when the force is transmitted to the machine and completed. Time perception is an important component of timing tasks and is known to be affected by the anxiety associated with high arousal. This research verified the impact of weather, flight, and time conditions on the anxiety and time perception of in-service pilots in a virtual reality area. Weather conditions were divided into visual flight weather conditions and very low visibility conditions. Experiments 1 and 2 were performed with different flight and time conditions. In Experiment 1, time perception was measured by employing a button added to the control rod in the scenario of hovering and level flight with relatively little transformed in momentum and little delay. In Experiment 2, time perception was measured in the procedure of naturally taking off the helicopter by employing only the control stick in a takeoff scenario where there was a lot of transformation in momentum and a lot of delays. As a result of the experiment, it was reported that anxiety and heart rate increased in very low visibility conditions In particular, among all flight conditions in Experiments 1 and 2, it was reported that time was overestimated in the scenario of increased anxiety. This outcome can lead to overestimation of time under the impact of anxiety and failure of the timing task, which may lead to challenges in maneuvering and possibly lead to accidents.

In OFDM system, frequency-domain sub-carriers of a symbol generally consist of data sub-carriers and scattered pilot sub-carriers and in the receiver, channel is estimated through time-axis interpolating pilot sub-carriers of several OFDM symbols. However, time-axis interpolation fails to keep track of rapid channel variation caused by fast moving receiver. Although symbol by symbol channel estimation without time-axis interpolation enables fast estimation, the performance is severely degraded for a long delay spread channel in a single frequency networks (SFNs) because of insufficient pilot sub-carriers. In this paper, a channel estimation scheme for OFDM receiver in a fast mobile SFN channel is proposed. The proposed scheme is applied to DVB-T receiver to improve the Doppler mobile performance in SFN channel.

When continuous media are transmitted over the communication networks, asynchrony which can not maintain temporal relationships among packets my occur due to a random transit delay. There exist two types of synchronization schemes ; for guaranteed or non-guaranteed resource networks. The former which applies a resource reservation technique maintains delay characteristics however, the latter supply a best-effort service. In this paper, I propose a intra-media synchronization scheme to transmit continuous media on general networks not guaranteeing a bounded delay time. The scheme controls transmission times of the packets by estimating next delay time with the delay distribution So, the arriving packets my be maintained within a limited delay boundary, and playout will be performed after buffering to smoothen small delay variations. To prevent network congestion and maintain minimum quality of service the transmitter performs media scaling-down by dropping the current packet when informed excessive delay from the receiver.

This paper describes scheduling algorithms of the UNIX operating system and shows an analytical approach to approximate the average conditional response time for a process in the UNIX operating system. The average conditional response time is the average time between the submittal of a process requiring a certain amount of the CPU time and the completion of the process. The process scheduling algorithms in thr UNIX system are based on the priority service disciplines. That is, the behavior of a process is governed by the UNIX process schuduling algorithms that (ⅰ) the time-shared computer usage is obtained by allotting each request a quantum until it completes its required CPU time, (ⅱ) the nonpreemptive switching in system mode and the preemptive switching in user mode are applied to determine the quantum, (ⅲ) the first-come-first-serve discipline is applied within the same priority level, and (ⅳ) after completing an allotted quantum the process is placed at the end of either the runnable queue corresponding to its priority or the disk queue where it sleeps. These process scheduling algorithms create the round-robin effect in user mode. Using the round-robin effect and the preemptive switching, we approximate a process delay in user mode. Using the nonpreemptive switching, we approximate a process delay in system mode. We also consider a process delay due to the disk input and output operations. The average conditional response time is then obtained by approximating the total process delay. The results show an excellent response time for the processes requiring system time at the expense of the processes requiring user time.

The Presence of a line-of-sight(LoS) blockage can degrade the UWB positioning accuracy for two reasons. Firstly, it makes estimation of the time of arrival(ToA) of the direct path signal difficult by complicating the multipath structure of the propagation channel. Secondly, the higher dielectric constant of the LoS blocking material than that of free space introduces excess propagation delay which will bias the range estimation. In this paper, methods based on ray tracing to reduce the ranging error resulting from the second reason are Posed. We take two different approaches; a statistical approach and a map-aided method. In the statistical approach, we establish a conditional distribution of the excess propagation delay caused by LoS blockages using a ray tracing technique. The lo6wer bound of the ranging performance based on this model is estimated. Ine ray tracing method is also used for the map-aided ToA positioning approach. UWB propagation measurement data taken in an office environment is used to examine the performance of this method.

종단에서 네트워크 용량에 대한 정보는 사용자뿐 아니라 전송 계층 프로토콜 상에서 전송량 등을 조절하기 위한 중요한 용도로 활용된다. 이러한 네트워크 용량(또는 대역폭)을 종단에서 측정하기 위해 활용되는 방법 중 하나가 바로 패킷 페어 기법이다. 패킷 페어 기법은 계산이 간단하고 빠른 측정이 가능하다는 장점이 있으나, 각 프로빙 패킷에 대한 즉각적인 응답 패킷을 필요로 하기 때문에 지연 ACK 방식이 존재하는 TCP 상에서는 적용하기 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 지연 ACK의 효과를 그대로 유지하면서 네트워크 용량의 추정이 가능한 지연 패킷 페어 기법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안된 지연 패킷 페어 기법이 기존 방식의 정확성, 빠른 측정 시간 등의 장점을 보존하면서 지연 ACK의 사용 여부에 관계없이 정확히 동작할 수 있음을 보였다.

In this paper, the models and characteristics of multipath propagation in an urban environment are described. Three propagation models(a random model, a ray model and a method of estimating time delay is proposed based on the envelope correlation between two radio frequencies. It is shown on the basis of laboratory simulation and field tests that the simple two-ray model is an adequate model for the fundamental study of the multipath propagation characteristic of the mobile radiowave and the estimating time delays of multipath-propagated waves in an urban area.

Marine seismic data have not only primary signals from subsurface but also ghost signals reflected from the sea surface. The ghost decreases temporal resolution of seismic data because it attenuates specific frequency components. For eliminating the ghost signals effectively, the exact ghost delaytimes and reflection coefficients are required. Because of undulation of the sea surface and vertical movements of airguns and streamers, the ghost delaytime varies spatially and randomly while acquiring seismic data. The reflection coefficient is a function of frequency, incidence angle of plane-wave and the sea state. In order to estimate the proper ghost delaytimes considering these characteristics, we compared the ghost delaytimes estimated with L-1 norm, L-2 norm and kurtosis of the deghosted trace and its autocorrelation on synthetic data. L-1 norm of autocorrelation showed a minimal error and the reflection coefficient was calculated using Kirchhoff approximation equation which can handle the effect of wave height. We applied the estimated ghost delaytimes and the calculated reflection coefficients to remove the source and receiver ghost effects. By removing ghost signals, we reconstructed the frequency components attenuated near the notch frequency and produced the migrated stack section with enhanced temporal resolution.

자동화 컨테이너 터미널에서 안벽크레인, AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle)와 같은 하역장비의 작업은 수 많은 요인에 영향을 받으며, 이로 인해 각 장비의 작업시간을 정확하게 추정하는 것은 거의 불가능하다. 작업시간의 불확실성은 AGV 배차를 어렵게 만들고 작업효율을 떨어뜨리는 주요 원인이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 불확실성에 대처하기 위하여 확률적 시뮬레이션 기반 AGV 배차 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 방안은 AGV를 배차할 때, 이후 일정 기간 동안의 AGV작업에 대해 확률적 시뮬레이션을 여러번 반복하여 수행하고 평가 값을 평균함으로써 불확실성의 영향을 줄인다. 확률적 시뮬레이션을 위해 크레인 작업시간의 불확실성을 간단한 확률함수로 모델링하고 그에 따라 크레인 작업시간을 결정한다. 또한 AGV 작업시간을 가감속, 간섭을 고려하여 추정한다. 시뮬레이션 실험을 통해 제안방안을 검증한 결과 안벽크레인의 지연이 감소함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a protocol synchronizing to packet trains in a underwater acoustic networks with limitations such as long propagation delay, low data rate, high packet loss. The proposed protocol employs an one-way communication scheme to calculate packet arrival time differences of consecutively transferred packets and minimizes uncertain variation effect of long propagation delay. Simulation results shows the superiority of our protocol, compared with a previously proposed one under the given network conditions.
