Due to the prevalence of various mobile devices and wireless broadband networks, there has been a significant increase in interest and demand for multimedia streaming services. Moreover, the user can service the participatory video broadcasting service in the mobile device and it can be used to deliver the real-time news and more variety information in the user side. Live multimedia service of user participation should consider not only the video quality but also the delay bounds and continuity of video playback for improving the user perceived QoS (Quality of Service) of streaming service. In this paper, we propose an adaptive rate control scheme, called DeBuG (Delay Bounds Guaranteed), to guarantee the delay bounds and continuity of video playback for the real-time streaming in mobile devices. In order to provide those, the proposed scheme has a quality adaptation function based on the transmission buffer status and network status awareness. It also has a selective frame dropper, which is based on the media priority, before the transmission video frames. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

현재 급속히 성장하고 있는 인터넷 방송이 가져야 되는 전송 후 재생 손실 정도가 고객의 시청 만족도에 어떻게 그리고 어느 정도 영향을 미치는 지를 실험 연구를 통해 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 측정하기 위해 인터넷 방송 컨텐츠의 재생 상태를 독립변수로 삼고, 인터넷 방송 시청 만족도를 종속 변수로 삼아 라틴 설계(Latin Square design)방식으로 통제실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 인터넷 방송을 시청하는 정보 수용자의 시청 품질 만족도 수준을 제시함으로써 두 가지 시사점을 제공하고자 한다. 첫째, 인터넷 방송 시청 만족도에 있어 시청자의 최대 허용 가능한 결점(defect)수준을 규명한다. 둘째, 현재의 인터넷 방송 품질이 서버에서 생성된 그대로의 최적 상태를 제공할 수 없기 때문에 재생 손실에 있어 전체손실과 연속 손실 모두를 고려한 교차 효과 연구를 통해 제시된 결과표로부터 최소 불평 수준을 밝힘으로써 인터넷 방송 운영자가 내릴 수 있는 최선의 대안을 선택할 수 있도록 한다.

In a VoIP(Voice over IP) system which support the realtime speech service, speech quality is deteriorated by the delay, the jitter, the loss, and the reversed packet order. In this thesis, APBC for receiver site is proposed, which compensate the jitter by the adaptive playout algorithm and conceal the packet loss, and align the packet order. Also, a VoIP application system is implemented, and the performance of APBC is verified on the implemented system by measuring the processing speed and the speech quality. From the result, processing speed is 257$\mu$sec, which is fast enough to deal with packet being received in realtime. Also, the speech quality by MOS(Mean Opinion Score) is improved as 18 percent compared with algorithm of fixed playout delay.

고창의 전력품질 실증시험장에서 계통에 연계된 풍력발전 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 풍력발전기의 특성을 파악하기 위해, 가변 풍속에서 이중여자 풍력발전기의 회전속도와 유효전력의 변화가 계통에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 고창의 전력품질 실증시험장은 22.9kV 계통에 전력품질 향상기기(DVR, STATCOM, SSTS)와 전력품질 외란 발생장치 등이 구축되어 있다. 모터와 VVVF를 이용하여 풍력발전기의 블레이드를 구현하고, 유도형과 이중여자 유도형 풍력발전기를 모의할 수 있는 시뮬레이터를 개발하였다. 선로의 길이를 20 kM로 가정하고, 덕적도의 풍속데이터를 이용한 가변풍속 패턴을 설정하여 풍력발전기의 회전속도에 대한 출력특성을 확인하였다.

Asphalt pavement waste can be recycled by crushing and heating methods with additional virgin materials and additives. In this study, a new additive using Sasol wax and Polyolefin elastomer was used for improving the quality of the Superior recycled asphalt pavement(SRP). Additive was added into the recycled mixture by 1.5% and 3% of binder content in order to have PG 70-22 and PG 76-22. Both mixtures were tested by Marshall apparatus, indirect strength testing methods, toughness testing methods, moisture susceptibility testing methods and wheel tracking testing methods. Test results met the standards of KS F 2349 and GR F 4005. Through research, it was found that these special recycled mixtures could be applied for the surface and base course of heavy traffic roads or equivalents. About 13,000 tons of the recycled mixture has been applied on Seoul Olympic road to provide new road to Hangang park for Seoul citizens.

The recycled asphalt concrete has gotten increasing attention due to the environmental issues. The volume of reclaimed asphalt has increased significantly for last few years because of city remodeling, pavement maintenance, utility excavation, and road widening. Considering the value of reclaimed asphalt, it is rather used for the recycled asphalt concrete than it is used for fill and cover up material instead of soil. This research will be a supplements incomplete issues from existing research results and suggests the quality control guideline for recycled asphalt concrete and upcoming laws. As the first step of research, the trial construction of RAP(Recycled Asphalt Pavement) performed in expressway construction sites. These trial construction sites have been checked every years. And another construction sites studied and selected for more deeper performance check of RAP. For this checks, we used automatic pavement survey equipment and computerized analysis tools. Also, DSR(Dynamic Shear Rheometer) was used for the fatigue life calculation of binder blends(RAP and virgin binder). As a consequence of this research, the application of recycled asphalt provides good enough quality for highway construction. The preceeding literatures reviewed shows that the asphalt rejuvenator are used in many countries but that type of chemical agent are not used in Korea. By using the data of trial construction and mix design in Chongwon-Sangju construction lane, the surface and base courses consisted with the 10% and 30% rap mix asphalt section maintains good performance for up to 7 years. Through the performance check and laboratory tests(DSR), the quality control and mixture's low temperature prevention are the important factor and chemical agent necessary for increasing the fatigue life of RAP binder.

This paper describes a new method for a speech playback speed control with high quality. The proposed method provides an adaptive threshold filtering solution for detecting active regions of a speech signal that are followed by playback speed. For a given playback speed, threshold value is adaptively determined with the statistics(:mean and standard deviation) of each frame in speech, and is used to select only active blocks within the current frame. To minimize quality degradation(i.e., pitch degradation) caused due to high-speed playback, the threshold filtering priorly eliminates relatively low-activity blocks including voice and unvoice. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides a playback speed control solution with higher quality than SOLA(Synchonized OverLap Add) method using the pitch extraction of speech.

As the interest on the high-definition and high-quality broadcasting is increased, the request on the high quality sound signal is enlarged as well as on the video signal's quality. One factor contributing to the high-quality of audio signal is an expansion of reproduction channels like 10.2channel and 22.2channel, but there is a problem of speaker installation issue of these many channels. One solution to solve this problem, we can use frontal loudspeaker array reproduction technique making virtual surround sound. So in this paper, we introduce theocratical analysis on the Wave Field Synthesis used for speaker array based sound reproduction and also present the result about the subjective listening test of reproduction performance based on this technique to check the perfoemance of this system. As a result, we showed WFS based frontal loudspeaker array reproduction method could provide sufficient performance compared to conventional discrete 5.1 channel reproduction method.

Dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP (DASH) is the most recent and promising technology to support high quality streaming services. In dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP (DASH), a client consecutively estimates the available network bandwidth and decides the transmission rate for the forthcoming video chunks to be downloaded. In this paper, we propose a novel rate adaptation algorithm called quality of experience QoE-enhanced adaptation algorithm over DASH (QAAD), which preserves the minimum buffer length to avoid interruption and minimizes the video quality changes during the playback. We implemented a DASH test bed and conducted extensive experiments. Experimental results demonstrate that under fluctuating network conditions, QAAD provides seamless streaming with stabilized video quality while the previous buffer-aware algorithm (i.e., QDASH[9]) frequently changes the video quality and undergoes the interruption.
