2006년 IEEE 802.16e 워킹그룹을 통해 완료된 Broadband Wireless 기술은 무선 통신시장에 큰 변화를 가져왔다. 기존에 WLAN의 Hot Spot 서비스를 통해 좁은 범위에서 사용하던 무선 인터넷이 이제는 값싸고 질 좋은 서비스를 언제 어디서나 사용할 수 있는 기술로 발전된 것이다. 이는 곳 국내 WiBro 서비스로 이어지면서 IEEE 802.16e 기술 기반의 광대역 무선 인터 넷 서비스를 창출하고 있다. IEEE 802.16e 워킹그룹에서의 PHY/MAC 기술 개발과 함께 인터넷 표준을 연구하는 IETF에서도 IEEE 802.16 기술상에서의 IP 및 Mobility 기술을 중심으로 한 새로운 표준연구 움직임이 2005년부터 시작되었고 이는 16ng 워킹그룹 신설이라는 결과로 이어졌다. 본 논문에서는 16ng 워킹그룹의 설립배경, 목적 및 관련된 최근 동향을 살펴보고자 한다.

The SNR estimation performance of hierarchical 16QAM system, which is adopted to simultaneous transmission or efficient image transmission system, is analyzed. Hierarchical 16QAM is modulation system which has different constellation shape from conventional QAM and can provide users with high quality and low quality of data services simultaneously by controlling hierarchical modulation parameter. Assuming AWGN channel, SNR estimation performance characteristics are investigated considering hierarchical modulation parameter and type of constellation points. From simulation results, it is found that constellation point showing superior SNR estimation performance relative to other points is exist. Also, it is known that according to hierarchical modulation parameter, SNR estimation range with more accurate estimation performance is divided.

For the safety evaluation of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer, we investigated differential gene expressions after transfecting adenoviral vector containing p16 tumor suppressor gene (Ad5CMV-p16) into human non-small cell lung cancer cells. In the previous study, we showed adenovirus-mediated $p16^{INK4a}$ gene transfer resulted in significant inhibition of cancer cell growth. We investigated gene expression changes after transfecting Ad5CMV-p16, Ad5CMV (null type, a mock vector) into A549 cells by using cDNA chip and oligonucleotide microarray chip (1200 genes) which carries genes related with signal transduction pathways, cell cycle regulations, oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. We found that $p16^{INK4a}$ gene transfer down regulated 5 genes (cdc2, cyclin D3, cyclin B, cyclin E, cdk2) among 26 genes involved in cell cycle regulations. Compared with serum-free medium treated cells, Ad5CMV-p16 changed 27 gene expressions, two fold or more on oligonucleotide chip. In addition, Ad5CMV-p16 did not seem to increase the tumorigenicity-related gene expression in A549 cells. Further studies will be needed to investigate the effect of Ad5CMV-p16 on normal human cells and tissues for safety evaluation.

Stolbur Phytoplasma was detected from Lilium Oriental hybrids showing flattened stem and flower clustering. The presence of phytoplasma was demonstrated using polymerase chain reaction（PCR) assays with phyto-plasma-universal（P1/P6）and stolbur phytoplasma-specific 16F1/R1-S primer pairs amplifying phytoplasma 16S rDNA regions. Nucleotide suquences of the phytoplasma 16S rDNA were determined. Nucleic acid extracted from lily amplified 1.5 kb DNA with a phytoplasma universal primer pair. In nested PCR, 1.1 kb PCR product was obtained using specific primer pair, indicating an isolate of stolbur phytoplasma. Nucleotide sequence of phytoplasma 16S rDNA reported in this study showed 99.5% and 99.1％ identities with two known stolbur phytoplamas (16Sr XII-A). Also, it exhibited a sequence homology of 98.0％ with phormium yellow leaf (16Sr XII-B), and 97.9％ with Australian grapevine yellows (16Sr XII-B). Meanwhile, it showed 98.1% identity with strawberry green petal phytoplama, (16Sr1-C), and 94.7 % with American aster yellows (16Sr1-B). Homology percentage of the 16S rDNA nucleotide sequence suggests that this phytoplama could be classified into the stolbur phytoplasma, subgroup A (16Sr XII-A), as a type strain stolbur.

As the usage of mobile stations increases thanks to various services, power saving mechanisms of mobile station operated by battery power have been gained much attention. This paper presents a power saving mechanism(PSM) of IEEE 802.16m, called Mobile WiMAX, for 4G mobile technology. This paper first presents different points of the PSM of IEEE 802.16m from IEEE 802.16e, which is a basis of IEEE 802.16m. This paper proposes a dynamic sleep cycle adjustment algorithm for improving the performance of IEEE 802.16m PSM by considering the arrival pattern of incoming packets from base station. Performance of the algorithm is analyzed in terms of energy consumption as well as waiting time of packets.

In conventional HEVC inverse core transform architectures, extra $n{\times}n$ inverse transform block is added to $2n{\times}2n$ inverse transform block, and it operates as one $2n{\times}2n$ inverse transform block or two $n{\times}n$ inverse transform blocks. Thus, same number of pixels are processed in the same time, but it suffers from increased hardware size due to extra $n{\times}n$ inverse transform block. To avoid this problem, a novel $8{\times}8$ HEVC inverse core transform architecture was proposed to eliminate extra $4{\times}4$ inverse transform block based on multiplier reuse. This paper extends this approach and proposes a novel HEVC $16{\times}16$ inverse core transform architecture. Its frame processing time is same in $4{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, and $16{\times}16$ inverse core transforms, and reduces gate counts by 13%.

Objectives: The inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene $p16^{INK4a}$ plays an important role in the development of malignant tumors, including oral squamous cell carcinoma. The p16 gene is involved in the p16/cyclin-dependent kinase/retinoblastoma (Rb) gene pathway of cell cycle control. The p16 protein is considered a negative regulator of this pathway. The p16 gene encodes an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 which regulate the phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma gene and G1 to S phase transition in the cell cycle. However, the p16 gene can lose its functionality through point mutations, loss of heterozygosity or methylation of its promoter region. Materials and Methods: In this study, the authors analyzed the correlation between various clinicopathological findings- patient age, gender and smoking, disease recurrence, tumor size, stage, and differentiation- and p16 protein expression or p16 promoter hypermethylation in 59 cases of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Results: The results revealed p16 protein expression and p16 promoter hypermethylation in 28 cases (47.5%) and 21 cases (35.6%), respectively, of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. However, neither p16 protein expression nor p16 promoter hypermethylation had any statistical influence on clinicopathological findings or survival rate. Conclusion: This data, and a review of the literature, suggest that p16 promoter hypermethylation cannot yet be used as an independent prognostic factor influencing carcinogenesis, but must be considered as an important factor along with other genetic alterations affecting the pRb pathway.
