An electron Boltzmann equation is solved numerically to calculate the electron energy distribution functions in plasma discharge which is generated by radio-frequency (RF) and microwave frequency electric field. The maintenance field strengths are determined self-consistently by solving the homogeneous electron Boltzmann equation in the Lorentz approximation expressed by 2nd order differential equation and an additional particle balance equation expressed by integro-differential equation. By using this numerical code, the electron energy distribution functions in argon discharge are calculated in the range from RF to microwave frequency. The influence of frequency of the HF electric field on the electron energy distribution functions and ionization rate are investigated.

본 논문에서는 움직임 보상 차영상 ( motion compensated difference image; MCDI)을 대역 분할한 뒤, 움직임 정보를 이용하여 에너지가 큰 부분만을 선택하여 적응적으로 벡터 양자화를 행함으로써 효율적으로 동영상을 부호화 할 수 있는 기법을 제안하였다. 제안한 기법에서는 MCDI의 특성들을 고려하여 에너지가 낮은 부분은 부호화를 행하지 않고, 에너지가 높은 부분에 대하여서만 움직임 벡터의 크기에 따라 클래스를 분류한 뒤 각 클래스에 맞는 코드북을 설계하여 벡터 양자화를 행한다. 이를 위해서는 부호화 되는 에너지가 높은 부분에 대한 정보와 클래스 부분에 대한 정보가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 부가 정보의 양을 움직임 벡터를 이용하여 최소화함으로써 비트율을 크게 줄이면서도 우수한 화질의 복원 영상을 얻을 수 있었다.

The boltzmann equation is based on the particle distribution function while the Navire-Stokes equation based on the continuum theory. In order to simulate free surface flow, this paper used the Lattice Boltzmann Method of which is the discretized form. The detail study on the characteristics of the Lattice Boltzmann Method for the free surface simulation was investigated. The developed code was validated with the traditional dam breaking problem by tracking the front position of the water. A basic roles of density functions in the Lattice Boltzmann Method is discussed. To have an engineering applications, the simulation is also conducted the free surface behavior with an arbitrary wall geometry.

This paper presents a method for constructing a pipeline-aware quasi-cyclic irregular repeat accumulate low-density parity-check (PA-QC-IRA-LDPC) codes and efficient rate-1/2 (2016, 1008) PA-QC-IRA-LDPC decoder architecture. A novel pipeline scheduling method is proposed. The proposed methods efficiently reduce the critical path using pipeline without any bit error rate (BER) degradation. The proposed pipeline-aware LDPC decoder provides a significant improvement in terms of throughput, hardware efficiency, and energy efficiency. Synthesis and layout of the proposed architecture is performed using 90-nm CMOS standard cell technology. The proposed architecture shows more than 53% improvement of area efficiency and much better energy efficiency compared to the previously reported architectures.

This paper presents an efficient technique to reduce PN code acquisition time considerably by adjusting threshold values in direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) systems. The proposed algorithm employs a pre-dump mode prior to a search mode, and the pre-dump mode determines threshold values of both search and verification modes depending on its correlation energy, which can improve not only the rejection performance of false code phases in the search mode but also that in the verification mode. The proposed method can reduce the mean code acquisition time by about 40% without increase of hardware costs compared with the conventional technique.

Natural gas became one of the major sources of energy in Korea. As the consumption of natural gas increase, the more capacity of the LNG storage tanks Is required. Recently, Korea Gas Corp.(KOGAS) has developed the technology nt' designing the LNG storage tanks. In this study, some of the finite element analysis has been made for designing of the roof structure of LNG storage tanks. The load case and safety code used In this study were followed by BS7777.

Cooperative networks enhance the performance of communication systems by combining received signals from the several relay nodes where the source node transmits signals to relay nodes. In this paper, we analyze the effect of resource allocation in cooperative networks. We assume that the cooperative networks use the conventional modulation scheme between the source and relay nodes, and adopt space-time code between the relays and destination node. Both the synchronous and differential modulations are applied for the conventional scheme and differential modulation is used for the space-time code. We consider relay location and energy allocation for resource allocation, and the performance of cooperative networks depending on the number of relay is also investigated.

Network reprogramming is a technology that allows several sensor nodes deployed in sensor field to be repaired remotely. Unlike general communication in sensor network where small amount of data is transferred, network reprogramming requires reliable transfer of large amount of data. The existing network reprogramming techniques suffers high cost and large energy consumption to recover data loss in node communication. In this paper, a cluster based network reporgramming scheme is proposed for sensor network. It divides sensor field into several clusters and chooses a cluster header in charge of data relay to minimize duplicated transmission and unnecessary competition. It increases reliability by effective error recovery through status table.

Bubble size is a key parameter for an accurate prediction of bubble behaviours in the multi-dimensional two-phase flow. In the current STAR CCM+ CFD code, a mechanistic bubble size model $S{\gamma}$ is available for the prediction of bubble size in the flow channel. As another model, Yun model is developed based on DEBORA that is subcooled boiling data in high pressure. In this study, numerical simulation for the gas-liquid two-phase flow was conducted to validate and confirm the performance of $S{\gamma}$ model and Yun model, using the commercial CFD code STAR CCM+ ver. 10.02. For this, local bubble models was evaluated against the air-water data from DEDALE experiments (1995) and Hibiki et al. (2001) in the vertical pipe. All numerical results of $S{\gamma}$ model predicted reasonably the two-phase flow parameters and Yun model is needed to be improved for the prediction of air-water flow under low pressure condition.
