In this paper, we propose watermark algorithm called TDWA(Time-Division Watermarking Algorithm) and we applied the proposed algorithm to H.264 video coding standard. We establish that a proposed algorithm is applied to H.264 baseline profile CODEC. The proposed algorithm inserts a watermark into the spatial domain of several frames. We can easily insert strong and invisible watermarks into original pictures using this method. For verification of the proposed algorithm we design hardware core using Verilog-HDL and Excalibur for JM 8.7 code with hardware & software co-simulation. As a result of verification, the PSNR between watermarked pictures and original pictures are more than 60dB and we found the watermark is kept more than 80% after encoding of H.264/AVC with quantization parameter of 28 in baseline profile.

A new modified lossless intra-coding method based on a cross residual transform is applied to HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding). The HEVC standard including a multi-directional spatial prediction method to reduce spatial redundancy encodes the pixels in a PU (Prediction Unit) by using neighboring pixels. In the new modified lossless intra-coding method, the spatial prediction is performed by pixel-based DPCM but is implemented by block-based manner by using cross residual transform on the HEVC standard. The experimental results show that the new lossless intra-coding method reduces the bit rate of approximately 8.4% in comparison with the lossless-intra coding method in the HEVC standard and the proposed method results in slightly better compression ratio than the JPEG2000 lossless coding.

In this paper, we propose the VLSI design of Multi-Format Video Decoder (MFD) to support video codec standards such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 and VC-1. The target of the proposed MFD is the Full HD (High Definition) video processing needed for the high-end D-TV SoC (System-on-Chip). The size of the design is reduced by sharing the common large-size resources such as the RISC processor and the on-chip memory among the different codecs. In addition, a detachable architecture is introduced in order to easily add or remove the codecs. The detachable architecture preserves the stability of the previously designed and verified codecs. The size of the design is about 2.4 M gates and the operating clock frequency is 225MHz in the Samsung 65nm process. The proposed MFD supports more than Full-HD (1080p@30fps) video decoding, and the largest number of video codec standards known so far.

Block Truncation Coding, or BTC, is a type of lossy image compression technique for grayscale images. It divides the original images into blocks and then reduces the number of grey levels in each block to compute the mean and standard deviation. BTC has also been adapted to video compression. Another variation of BTC is Absolute Moment Block Truncation Coding. AMBTC is computationally simpler than BTC. In this paper, we proposed new image compression method based on BTC, which is applied patterns to improve compression rate and image quality. This method make two codebooks to extract 36 and 64 patterns from the highest frequency patterns in BTC. When you are compressing an image, you compare many block patterns to that of codebook and use to compress indexes of identical patterns. We experiment our proposed scheme with 36 patterns and the experimental results showed the compression rate of 1.37 bpp. In this paper, our proposed scheme showed higher compression rate rather than that of BTC. In experiment, we used standard images for the performance evaluation.

Turbo codes are selected as FEC(Forward error correction) codes with convolution code in 3GFP(3rd generation partnership project) and 3GPP2 standard of IMT2000. Especially, l/3 turbo code with K=4 is employed for 3GPP standard. In this paper, we proposed a hardware structure of a turbo decoder and denveloped the decoder for 3GPP standard turbo code. For its efficient operation, we design a SOVA decoder by employing a register exchange decoding block and new path metric normalization block as a SISO constituent decoder. In addition, we estimate its performance under MATLAB 6.0 and designed the turbo decoder including control block, input control buffer, SOVA constituent decoder with VHDL. Finally, we synthesized the developed turbo decoder under Synopsys FPGA Express and verified it with ALTERA EPF200SRC240-3 FPGA device.

ISO11783은 농업 산업분야 통신 프로토콜의 국제 표준으로, 농용트랙터 및 작업기 ECU 간의 통신 프로토콜을 표준화한다. 이 표준은 서로 다른 제조사의 제품 간에 호환성을 갖게 하며, 정밀 농업에 대한 핵심 기반을 제공한다. 현재 해외에서는 이미 ISO11783 기반의 AFS(Advanced Farming System)를 통한 정밀농업이 상용화되어 농가에 보급되고 있다. 이에 비해, 국내에서 이러한 표준을 따르는 농기계들은 미비한 실정이며, 향후 농업의 정밀 농업화를 통한 고부가가치 창출 및 선진국의 무역 장벽에 대비와 해외 수출 판로 개척을 위해 ISO11783 표준에 대한 R&D가 필요로 한다. 이에 IsoAgLib를 분석하고 임베디드 보드에 Porting하여 ISO11783 기반 작업기 ECU를 구현하였고, 이를 기반으로 ISO11783 기반 작업기 ECU의 구현 방법을 발표한다. IsoAgLib의 시스템 아키텍처는 계층화 되어 있어, 타겟에 의존적인 계층만 수정하여, IAR 환경에서 Cortex M3 보드에 포팅을 완료하였다. 작업기 ECU들은 자신만의 인터페이스 화면을 갖으며, 이를 Object pool이라 한다. 이것을 Virtual Terminal(VT)에 업로드 하여, VT가 해당 작업기 ECU의 사용자 인터페이스 기능을 제공하도록 한다. 이에 작업기 ECU 구현 1 단계로, 'VT-Designer'를 통하여 Object pool를 설계한다. 2 단계, 'vt2iso'를 통해서 Object pool을 IsoAgLib 상에서 사용할 수 있도록 변환한다. 3 단계, 포팅된 IsoAgLib project에 변환된 파일을 포함 시킨다. 4 단계, 작업기 ECU의 주기적인 작업 및 각 메시지 수신시 수행할 작업을 코딩한다. 5 단계, 빌드 및 타겟 보드에 업로딩 한 후, New Holland 사의 $Intelliview^{TM}$ iv display (VT)과 연결하여 동작을 확인한다. 확인 결과로 VT에 디자인한 Object pool이 표시 되며 soft key 입력 시 작업기 ECU에서 LED가 변한다. 결론적으로, 연구 결과를 바탕으로 ISO11783 기반의 작업기 ECU의 디자인 및 구현이 가능하며, 이를 통해 향후 국내의 ISO11783 기반의 작업기 ECU의 개발에 도움을 줄 수 있다.

The communication between the center system and the local controller in the Traffic Signal Controller Specification has been specified by a communication line for the exclusive use and the analog modem serial protocol. Therefore, it can't be adapted in the ITS communication network of the TCP/IP protocol being constructed in the local city. The international and domestic ITS device's communication specification has adapted the DATEX-ASN data exchange technique based on the ethernet communication network. So, this study was performed by the purpose of developing the application communication protocol's standard draft based on the TCP/IP communication protocol for the traffic signal controller, to be able to constitute the traffic signal control system in the ITS communication network. The communication format for 23 items of control, status, and database request etc. which are specified in the standard traffic signal controller was developed by appling the DATEX-ASN data interface procedure and structure which are KS ISO X 14827 Part1, 2, ISO/ DIS 15784 Part-3. To test the developed protocol, the application program for the communication items was developed and according to the test result, the encoding and the decoding transection for all communication items was possible.

H.264/AVC는 ITU-T H.264와 ISO/IEC 14496-10(MPEG-4 Part 10)으로 승인된 새로운 국제 비디오 압축 표준이다. H.264/AVC는 압축부호화 효율(이하 압축률)이 높으며 MPEG-2나 MPEG-4등에 비해 압축률이 2배 이상 향상되었으나 복잡도 또한 훨씬 증가하였다. 월등한 압축성능 때문에 방송 분야(DTV 등), 저장용 시스템 분야(PVR 등)에 많은 응용 분야들에 적용하기 위한 움직임이 있다. 그러나, 디코더로 구현하면 복잡도 증가하는 문제가 발생한다. HD급을 지원하기 위한 메모리 대역폭의 경우 MPEG-2 HD에 비해 H.264/AVC만의 복잡한 움직임 보상으로 인해 2배 이상이 요구된다. H.264/AVC 디코더는 두 개의 참조픽처를 이용하여 움직임 보상하는 B-픽처와 쌍예측 픽처가있다. 여기서, 참조픽처를 각각 하나씩만 사용하여 디코딩 하면 기존의 복잡도를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 하나의 참조픽처 선택으로 H.264/AVC 소프트웨어 디코더에서 움직임 보상을 한다. 이로 인하여 복잡도와 메모리 대역폭이 감소하는 방법을 제안한다.

This research seeks to develop preservation metadata and to provide guidelines to apply PREMIS-METS decisions in a METS profile in the National Library of Korea. The process of developing metadata is divided into three steps, that is, analysis of metadata schema in other digital preservation initiatives, analysis of resources and preservation policies, and interviews with librarians in the National Library of Korea. A metadata schema consists of four main entities - object, event, agent, and rights. The study also provides a cataloging example as well as principles using PREMIS-METS for archiving digital resources. The schema has values to manage digital resources effectively and efficiently in the National Library of Korea.
