In this paper, a synchronous CDMA system accepted for the cdma2000 standard is simulated to propose optimized reverse link power ratio and channel estimation lengths. Differently from IS-95, the pilot channel is used in the proposed system to estimate fading channel, so optimized estimation lengths are needed. Therefore, in this paper we analyze optimized estimation lengths which is needed to decide the power ratio of pilot channel and fundamental channel. From fixed estimation lengths, we calculate FER with various power ratio values.

본 논문은 이동 통신 및 IEEE 802.lla WLAN에서 사용하고 있는 컨벌루셔널 부호의 복호기인 비터비 복호기의 SMU(Survivor Metric Unit)의 최적 메모리 제어에 관한 연구이다. 비터비 복호기기 구조는 크게 BMU, ACSU, SMU부로 구성된다. 이때 SMU부는 최적의 경로를 역추적 하여 최종 복호 데이터를 출력해 주는 블록으로, 역추적 길이에 따라 메모리 사용 양과 복호 성능이 좌우된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 최적 메모리 제어 알고리즘을 제안함으로써 복호 속도의 향상과 메모리 사용 양을 줄이는 방법을 제안한다. 제안 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 기존의 비터비 복호기와 역추적 길이에 따른 비터비 복호기의 성능을 실험을 통해 분석함으로써 제안 방법의 객관적인 성능을 분석한다.

The behavior of nose-deck system during launch was examined by three dimensionless launching parameters, such as the relative flexural stiffness, the relative nose weight, and the relative nose length. The techniques of optimizing the launching nose were illustrated and equations of relationship between relative nose weight and relative nose length were derived under minimum conditions of the launching negative and positive moment. Equations of maximum positive and negative moment were suggested under the conditions. The optimum design method of the launching nose was proposed in launched continuous girder bridges. It was found that the ideal launching nose was to design that with the relative nose weight of 0.167 and the relative nose length of 0.836 to minimize absolute values of the positive and negative moment during launch.

본 논문에서는 써모싸이폰식 히트파이프의 열수송한계와 작동유체의 주입량이 파이프의 직경, 가열량 및 증발부와 응축부의 길이비 등에 따라 변화하므로 이러한 인자에 따른 적정 작동유체의 주입량과 가열량의 한계에 대해 고찰하였다. 특히 각종 전자부품의 냉각에 사용되는 히트파이프가 써모사이폰식이므로 사용작동유체에 대해 가열량에 따라 파이프의 직경예측이 가능토록 열수송한계특성에 대해 검토하고, 싸이리스터용은 증발부와 응축부의 길이비 변동이 심하므로 작동유체의 주입량이 중요한 성능인자로 작용하므로 길이비에 따른 작동유체의 주입량범위에 대해 기술하였다. 그리고 최적의 작동유체범위와 히트파이프의 증발열전달계수 및 응축열전달계수에 대한 실험으로부터 성능자료를 도출하여 이론해석과 비교검토하였다.

This study was an attempt to investigate the external ocular morphology on the Korean female adult. The following results were obtained: 1. The optimum length of the distance of the innercanthus was 35-36mm. But the subjects between the ages of 18-19 had a wider range than those between the ages of 20-25 ages. 2. The optimum length of palpebral fissure was 30-31 mm. where as the right and left eye produced similar results. 3. The optimum width of the palpebral fissure was 8mm, and the right and left eye produced similar results. 4. At near distance, almost all the subjects PD was 28-31mm(76.7%), and the right and left eyes produced similar results. 5. At far distance, almost all the subjects PD was 30-33 mm(75.8%), but in the subjects aged 18-21 ages, the length of the right eye was longer than the left eye.

In this study, the virtual fixed point analysis and 3D fully modeling analysis for bent pile structures are conducted by considering various influencing factors and the applicability of the virtual fixed point theory is discussed. Also, the optimized column-pile length ratio is analyzed for supplementing virtual fixed point design and examining a more exact behavior of bent pile structures by taking into account the major influencing parameters such as pile length, column and pile diameter, reinforcement ratio and soil conditions. To obtain the detailed information, the settlement and lateral deflection of the virtual fixed point theory are smaller than those of 3D fully modeling analysis. On the other hand, the virtual fixed point analysis overestimates the axial force and bending moment compared with 3D fully modeling analysis. It is shown that the virtual fixed point analysis cannot adequately predict the real behavior of bent pile structures. Therefore, it is necessary that 3D fully modeling analysis is considered for the exact design of bent pile structures. In this study, the emphasis is on quantifying an improved design method (optimized column-pile length ratio) of bent pile structures developed by considering the relation between the column-pile length ratio and allowable lateral deflection criteria. It can be effectively used to perform a more economical and improved design of bent pile structures.

The settlement hardly occurs in structures supported by pile foundation such as abutment, culvert but a cavity is formed in the lower part of a structure. As a result, soil discharged from the lateral ground to the cavity accelerates the settlement of the lateral ground of the structure, resulting in a larger settlement. Therefore, in order to prevent problems caused by cavity under the structure supported by pile foundation, soil Flow Protector (briefly called 'FLP'), which can be easily installed on the side of structure, was developed. In this study, an laboratory model test was carried out to prove the reduction effect of settlement and to estimate the optimal installation length of the FLP. As a result, the installation of the FLP reduced the settlement of the lateral ground and prevented the leakage of lateral ground soil into the cavity. If the stiffness of the FLP is small, the state or active earth pressure is generated in the upper part, which is not favorable for stability. But if the stiffness of the FLP is high enough, the passive earth pressure area is generated in the upper part, which will be advantageous for the stability. Also, the increased installation length of FLP is effective to reduce the settlement. And the ratio of the optimal length of the FLP to the box structure height (H = 250 mm) are flexible FLP 1.38, stiff FLP 0.73.

Recently, method of reinforced earth retaining wall have been proposed according to the material of facing, geosynthetic, construction method, and facing slope. However, the regulations such as the design method and detailed review items according to each construction method are not clear, and collapse due to heavy rainfall frequently occurs. In this study, to obtain a more stable technical approach in the design of reinforced earth retaining wall, the combination of the pullout failure of reinforced earth retaining wall and the optimal reinforcement ratio of height using reinforced earth retaining wall using a single strength reinforcement is assumed, optimum design of stiffener, optimal design of superimposed wall and optimum length ratio of reinforcement material of geosynthetics are proposed through safety factor according to reinforcement length ratio (L/H).

In order to determine optimal design length of adhesive joint of a composite pressure vessel with separated dome, stress analysis of joint part according to changes of adhesive length was done. Adhesive length has a range of 50mm to 300mm as design variables. The ratio of adhesive length with any stress gradient to initial non-stressed adhesive length was called "stress gradient length ratio" and selected as objective function. The stress gradient length ratio of joint part with adhesive length of more than 200mm was increased very slowly with increase of adhesive length. It means that adhesive length of about 200mm could be the optimal value to ensure the structural safety of joint part against internal pressure of 2,500 psi.

Cycle length of domestic nuclear power plants is determined by the demand-supply plan of utility company. The target cycle length is achieved by adjusting the number of feed fuel assembly and fuel enrichment. Traditionally, utility company first select the number of feed fuel assembly and then find out the fuel enrichment to achieve the special cycle length. But it is difficult to find out if this method is most economical than any other combinations of the enrichment and batch size satisfying the same cycle length. In this paper, core depletion calculation is performed to find out the optimum combination of the enrichment and batch size for given target cycle length in terms of fuel cycle cost using commercial core design code; CASMO/MASTER code. To minimize the uncertainty resulting from transition core analysis, levelized fuel cycle cost analysis was applied to the equilibrium cycle core in order to determine the optimum combination. The sensitivity study of discount rate was also carried out to analyze the levelized fuel cycle cost applicable to countries with different discount rates. From the levelized fuel cycle cost analysis results, the combination with smaller batch size and higher fuel enrichment becomes more economical as the discount rate becomes lower. On the other hand, the combination with higher batch size and lower fuel enrichment becomes more economical as the discount rate becomes higher.
