무선 센서 네트워크는 소형의 무선 센서노드들로 구성된 네트워크이다. 무선으로 구성된 센서 네트워크는 사물과 환경의 변화를 감지하여 싱크로 전송하게 된다. 무선 센서 네트워크에서 센서노드는 무선으로 데이터를 전송할 때 가장 많은 에너지를 소모한다. 한정된 에너지 자원을 효율적으로 사용하기 위해서는 데이터 전송에 이용하는 라디오모듈의 사용을 최소화하여 네트워크 전체의 데이터 전송량을 감소시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 에너지 소모를 줄이기 위해 DPCM, 웨이블릿, 양자화, 가변 길이 부호화를 사용하여 전송되는 데이터의 양을 줄여 라디오모듈을 통한 데이터 전송 횟수를 줄였고, 결과적으로 센서 네트워크의 트래픽을 감소시켜 에너지 소모를 줄였다.

In this paper, we consider the delay-dependent robust stability condition for polytopic uncertain systems with interval time-varying delay using various combinations of quantization and overflow nonlinearities. A robust stability condition for uncertain systems with time-varying delay and quantization/overflow nonlinearities is proposed by LMI(linear matrix inequality) and Lyapunov technique. It is shown that the proposed method is less conservative compared to the recent results by numerical examples.

스트림 암호 시스템에서는 비선형 결합 LFSR 키 수열을 이용하였다. 주기가 존재하고 상관관계 공격에 약한 비선형 LFSR 키 수열의 문제를 개선하기 위해 제안된 카오스 키 수열은 균형성과 랜덤특성을 만족하지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 적응적 임계값 적용 방법을 이용하여 균형성과 랜덤특성을 만족하는 카오스 키 수열 생성 기법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 키 수열 생성 기법은 로지스틱 방정식을 이용하여 키 수열 생성을 위한 카오스 신호를 만든 다음 카오스 신호를 적응적 임계값 적용방법을 통해 '0'과 '1'로 양자화하여 키 수열을 생성한다. 제안한 알고리즘으로 생성된 키 수열의 특징을 분석한 결과 균형성과 랜덤특성이 기존의 카오스 키 수열에 비해 개선되었음을 알 수 있다.

Due to the bandwidth and storage limitations medical images are needed to be compressed before transmission and storage. DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) specification, which is the medical images standard, provides a mechanism for supporting the use of JPEG still image compression standard. In this paper, we explain a method for compressing medical images by PEG standard and propose two methods for JPEG compression. First, because medical images differ from natural images in optical feature, we propose a method to design adaptively the quantization table using spectrum analysis. Second, because medical images have higher pixel depth than natural images do, we propose a method to design Huffman table which considers the probability distribution feature of symbols. Simulation results show the improved performance compared to the quantization table and the adjusted Huffman table of JPEG standard.

본 논문은 분할된 비디오 화면들의 색상 내용을 기반으로 하는 새로운 영상 검색 방법을 제안 하고자 한다. 제안된 시간 색상 상관그래프는 공통적인 통계 데이터를 이용하여 비디오 화면 내의 공간-시간 관계를 계산한다. 시간 색상 상관 그래프는 내용 기반의 영상 검색에 매우 효과적인 것으로 밝혀진 HSV(Hue, Saturation, Value) 색상 상관 그래프를 기반으로 하고 있다. 시간 색상 상관 그래프는 하나의 비디오 화면으로부터 추출된 프레임 샘플의 양자화 된 HSV 색상 값의 자기상관관계를 이용하여 구성하였다. 본 논문에서는 11시간 분량의 분할된 MPEG-1 비디오에 대한 질의와 질의에 대한 관련성 판정을 하고자 내용 기반의 멀티미디어 검색 시스템을 구축하여 실험하였다. 실험 견과 제안된 방법이 시각 정보만을 필요로 하는 검색에 있어 기존의 다른 검색 방법보다 우수한 결과를 나타냄을 증명하였다.

We investigated technological trends in an electrocardiogram (ECG)-based biometric cryptosystem that uses physiological features of ECG signals to provide personally identifiable cryptographic key generation and authentication services. The following technical details of the cryptosystem were investigated and analyzed: preprocessing of ECG signals, extraction of personally identifiable features, generation of quantified encryption keys from ECG signals, reproduction of ECG encryption keys under time-varying noise, and new security applications based on ECG signals. The cryptosystem can be used as a security technology to protect users from hacking, information leakage, and malfunctioning attacks in wearable/implantable medical devices, wireless body area networks, and mobile healthcare services.

In this paper, we propose the novel video retrieval algorithm using non-parametric based motion classification in the shot-based video indexing structure. The proposed system firstly gets the key frame and motion information from each shot segmented by scene change detection method, and then extracts visual features and non-parametric based motion information from them. Finally, we construct real-time retrieval system supporting similarity comparison of these spatio-temporal features. After the normalized motion vector fields is created from MPEG compressed stream, the extraction of non-parametric based motion feature is effectively achieved by discretizing each normalized motion vectors into various angle bins, and considering a mean, a variance, and a direction of these bins. We use the edge-based spatial descriptor to extract the visual feature in key frames. Experimental evidence shows that our algorithm outperforms other video retrieval methods for image indexing and retrieval. To index the feature vectors, we use R*-tree structures.

Two-channel multiwavelet system is investigated for image compression application in this paper. Generally, multiwavelets are known for their superb capability of compressing non-stationary signals like voice. However, multivavelet system have a critical problem in processing and compressing image data due to mesh-grid visual artifacts. In our two-channel multiwavelet system we have investigated incorporation of pre and post filtering to the multiwavelet transform and compression system for alleviating those ingerent visual artifacts due to multiwavelet effect. In addition, to quantify the image data compression performance of proposed multiwavelet system, computer simulations have been performed using various image data. For bit allocation and quantization, the Lagrange multiplier technique considering data rate vs. distortion rate along with a nonlinear companding method are applied equallly to all systems considered, here. The simulation results have yielded 1 ~ 2 dB compression enhancement over the scalar savelet systems. If the more advanced compression methods like SPIHT and run-length channel coding were adopted for the proposed multiwavelet system, a much higher compression gain could be obtained.

We investigate some implementation factors that affect the performance of multi-rate parallel interference cancellers (PICs) for the international mobile telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000) 3rd-generation partnership project (3GPP) system. We consider the simple multi-rate PIC [1,2] that can remove effectively multiple access interference (MAI) through block-based detection and sample-based cancellation in asynchronous user environments. The PIC structure has significantly lower complexity as compared with that of the existing scheme, especially as the number of users increases. We analyze the effects of timing error, oversampling rate, unsynchronized users and/or outer-cell interference, and the number of Quantization bits on the PIE performance through extensive computer simulations. The models for such factors and the optimum parameters are drawn. Finally, we evaluate the receiver complexities of the PIC receivers employing using the advanced removal scheme.

Reduced complexity codebook searching for Quantized Equal Gain Transmission(QEGT) is proposed over MIMO-OFDM systems. QEGT codebook is divided into M groups of Q index members. Each group has a representative index. At the 1st stage only the representative indices are searched then the best index is selected. At the 2nd stage the optimum index is determined only among the group of the selected representative index. This strategy reduces the overall index search algorithm comparing to the conventional methods. Monte-Carlo simulation shows that the searching complexity is reduced, but the link-level performance is still almost the same as the conventional methods when the number of transmission antennas are 3 to 7.
