In this paper, we obtained the path loss characteristics in the 850 MHz for Russia area by using the free space path loss model and Okumura-Hata path loss model. In order to extract the additional path loss model parameter from the new Russian regional properties, the mean square error technique is used to obtain the correction factor. According to the obtained correction factor, the differences for the free space and Hata path loss model are 17, 6 dB in the 5 ~ 10 Km, 28, 14 dB in the 10 ~ 15 Km, and 35, 18 dB in the 15 ~ 20 Km. By applying the correction factors, the appropriate partial path loss models for the measured Russain area are proposed.

In this paper, we propose MPLO(Multi-Path routing with Local Optimization) for load balancing in the tactical backbone network. The MPLO manages global metric and local metric separately. The global metric is propagated to other routers via a routing protocol and is used for configuring loop-free multi-path. The local metric reflecting link utilization is used to find an alternate path when congestion occurs. We verified MPLO could effectively distribute user traffic among available routers by simulation.

The primary function of navigation system is to provide route search and road guidance for safe driving for drivers. However, the existing route search system provides a simple service that looks up the shortest route using a safe driving DB without considering different road characteristics for the safety of the drivers. In order to maintain the safe driving, rather than searching the shortest path, a navigation system, in which the danger areas and/or the dangerous time zones have been considered, is required. Therefore, in this paper we propose a strategy of searching a navigation path to avoid danger areas for safe driving by using the A* algorithm. In the strategy, when evaluating the path-specific fitness of the navigation nodes, different heuristic weights were assigned to different types of risk areas. In particular, we considered three kinds of danger areas, such as accident-prone sections where accidents occur frequently, school zones, and intersection regions, as well as the time slots when the probability of danger is high. From computer simulation, the results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can provide the way to avoid danger areas on the route searching and confirm the possibility of providing the actual service.

In this paper, we got the 800 ~ 900 MHz path loss model for Russia PNG area using the free space model and the Okumura-Hata Model. In order to add new regional properties to the existing path loss model, the mean square error technique is used to obtain the correction factor. The correction factors for the free space and the Hata model are 28, 13 dB respectively. By applying this correction factors, the new Russain PNG path loss model is proposed.

Path generation methods are required for safe and efficient driving in unmanned autonomous vehicles. There are two kinds of paths: global and local. A global path consists of all the way points including the source and the destination. A local path is the trajectory that a vehicle needs to follow from a way point to the next in the global path. In this paper, we propose a novel method for local path generation through machine learning, with an effective curve function used for initializing the trajectory. First, reinforcement learning is applied to a set of candidate paths to produce the best trajectory with maximal reward. Then the optimal steering angle with respect to the trajectory is determined by training an artificial neural network. Our method outperformed existing approaches and successfully found quality paths in various experimental settings, including the cases with obstacles.

환경지도를 갖고 있는 이동로봇은 정확한 경로계획에 의하여 주행하게 된다. 그러나 주행 중 예상하지 못한 장애물을 만나는 경우 새로운 경로정보가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 부분적인 환경정보를 갖고 있는 이동로봇의 경로계획기법을 제시한다. 경로계획은 전체경로계획과 지역경로계획으로 구분되면 전체환경을 노드와 아크로 표시한 네트워크 모델을 이용하여 수행된다. 경로계획시간과 메모리 부담을 개선하기 위하여 네트워크 분할기법을 이용한 경로계획기법을 제안하였으며 지역경로계획에서는 정보가 변경된 부 네트워크에 대하여 경로계획을 수행하여 계산시간을 적게 소요하며 새로운 경로를 계산한다. 제안한 기법을 자동화 공장에서 주행하는 이동로봇에 적용하였으며 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 제안한 기법의 성능을 보였다.

In the process of industrial restructuring at the regional and firm's level induced by significant changes in external economic circumstances, geographic and economic inheritances could be exploited as a constraint and/or asset for firms' strategies. Through a theoretical discussion of this argument, an attempt has been to categorize the effects of inherited regional assets on firms' strategies and regional development and to analyze the firms' strategies located at the city of Ansan. Capitalizing upon this empirical findings, some feasible development paths of Ansan in the future have been proposed and then critically discussed.

This study attempts to analyze the spatial characteristics of organic agriculture in Korea during the period of 2000~2010, focusing on women's labor contribution to agricultural operations. Spatial distribution and concentration of organic farming have been investigated using Location Quotient(LQ) and Local Indicator of Spatial Association(LISA), it was found that the specialized organic farmland in the Seoul Metropolitan area has decreased significantly over the past decade, while in Chungnam and Kyungpook province it has been rapid growth in the same period. Multilinear regression analysis was also carried out to find out whether the spatial clusters in organic farming depends on women farmers. Results describing the correlation between organic farming and women farmers within identified clusters suggest that the possibility of the transition towards sustainable agriculture and farmland restructuring in Korea, by women.

Conventional path planning methods have focused on the generation of an optimal shortest path to the goal. However, this optimal path cannot guarantee safe navigation, because it can often lead to a narrow area. Therefore, we propose a Coulomb's law-based safe path planning method that uses an information grid map. The information grid map includes four types of information: occupied, empty, guide, and dangerous areas. A safe path can be generated away from the dangerous area and close to the guide area by repulsive and attractive forces, respectively. Experiments and simulations show that the proposed method can generate paths inside the safe region and is useful for safe navigation.
