A hardware architecture is presented to decode (N, K) polar codes based on a low-density parity-check code-like decoding method. By applying suitable pruning techniques to the dense graph of the polar code, the decoder architectures are optimized using fewer check nodes (CN) and variable nodes (VN). Pipelining is introduced in the CN and VN architectures, reducing the critical path delay. Latency is reduced further by a fully parallelized, single-stage architecture compared with the log N stages in the conventional belief propagation (BP) decoder. The designed decoder for short-to-intermediate code lengths was implemented using the Virtex-7 field-programmable gate array (FPGA). It achieved a throughput of 2.44 Gbps, which is four times and 1.4 times higher than those of the fast-simplified successive cancellation and combinational decoders, respectively. The proposed decoder for the (1024, 512) polar code yielded a negligible bit error rate of 10^-4 at 2.7 E_b/N_o (dB). It converged faster than the BP decoding scheme on a dense parity-check matrix. Moreover, the proposed decoder is also implemented using the Xilinx ultra-scale FPGA and verified with the fifth generation new radio physical downlink control channel specification. The superior error-correcting performance and better hardware efficiency makes our decoder a suitable alternative to the successive cancellation list decoders used in 5G wireless communication.

우리나라 주도의 와이브로 기술은 가장 먼저 4G 고지에 도달한 무선 인터넷 기술로, 유망한 차세대 이동통신 기술 중 가장 유력한 주자 중 하나이다. 모바일 와이맥스로 국제 표준화 되었으며 우리나라를 비롯해 해외 많은 나라에서 구축되고 있다. 와이브로 망에서 긴급 서비스 지원은 대국민 기반 서비스일 뿐 아니라, 번호 이동을 통해 다른 통신망의 음성 가입자를 유인하는데 전제가 되는 긴요한 서비스가 될 것이다. 본 논문은 모바일 VoIP 서비스를 제공하는 와이브로 망에서 긴급 서비스 지원을 위한 네트워크 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 구조는 국제 호환성을 위해 WiMAX Forum (WMF)에서 표준화한 구조를 기반으로 하되, PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point)과의 인터페이스는 우리나라 긴급 교환망 구조 및 현 긴급 서비스 시스템과 무리 없이 연동되도록 고안되었다.

System identification is regarded as the most basic technique for structural health monitoring to evaluate structural integrity. Although many system identification techniques extracting mode information (e.g., mode frequency and mode shape) have been proposed so far, it is also desired to identify physical parameters (e.g., stiffness and damping). As for high-rise buildings subjected to long-period ground motions, system identification for evaluating only the shear stiffness based on a shear model does not seem to be an appropriate solution to the system identification problem due to the influence of overall bending response. In this paper, a system identification algorithm using a shear-bending model developed in the previous paper is revised to identify both shear and bending stiffnesses. In this algorithm, an ARX (Auto-Regressive eXogenous) model corresponding to the transfer function for interstory accelerations is applied for identifying physical parameters. For the experimental verification of the proposed system identification framework, vibration tests for a 3-story steel mini-structure are conducted. The test structure is specifically designed to measure horizontal accelerations including both shear and bending responses. In order to obtain reliable results, system identification theories for two different inputs are investigated; (a) base input motion by a modal shaker, (b) unknown forced input on the top floor.

차세대 모바일 인터넷의 진화에 따라 2G, 3G, 4G, B4G 이동통신 무선접속네트워크가 공존하게 되며, 기존의 통신 서비스 제공자들은 통합 서비스 제공자로 융합되고, 다수의 가상 서비스 제공자들이 발생하게 될 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 복잡한 미래의 융합 서비스를 제공하기 위해서 미래 인터넷에서는 무선 액세스 네트워크가 융합되고 다양한 서비스 제공자들에 의해 공유되는 무선 네트워크 가상화가 필수적이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 미래 무선 액세스 네트워크 상에서 여러 서비스 제공자들의 다양한 무선 액세스 기술들이 유연하게 통합 운영될 수 있는 무선 액세스 네트워크 가상화를 위한 망 구조와 가상화 시나리오에 대해서 고찰한다. 본 논문에서 도출된 차세대 이동통신 네트워크를 위한 무선 액세스 망 구조 및 가상화 시나리오는 앞으로 무선 액세스 네트워크 가상화 알고리즘 개발을 위한 기틀 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Korean fishing boats have had appropriate hull forms for the safety, stability and convenience of fishing ability. However, Korean fishermen are recently concerned about the resistance performance and speed of Korean fishing boats, because the prices of fuel oil are gradually risen, also the exhausting of fish resources and the demand of high speed fishing boats are increased. Therefore, the necessity of the study on the improvement of resistance performance for Korean small coastal fishing boats is gradually increased. This study compares the hull form characteristics of Korean fishing boats with those of Japanese fishing boats, and the hull form of a representative Korean fishing boat is modified. From the modification of the hull form parameters for the Korean fishing boat, the improvement of resistance performances is evaluated. Moreover, the increase of resistance performances is also achieved from the modification of local characteristics for the hull form of the Korean fishing boat. A computational method and ship model tests in towing tank are used for the conformations of the improvement of resistance performance.

A major challenge for next generation mobile communication is capturing the system architecture’s complexity with all its internal and external dependencies. Seamless integration of heterogeneous environments in all system parts is a key requirement. Moreover, future systems have to consider the different evolution cycles of individual system parts. Among those, services are expected to change the fastest. With respect to these considerations, we propose an overall architecture for next generation mobile communication systems. It covers all system parts from wireless transmission to applications including network and middleware platform. Our approach focuses on adaptability in terms of recon- figurability and programmability to support unanticipated system evolution. Therefore, we consider abstraction layers which consist of adaptable cooperating components grouped by open platforms rather than rigid system layers. In addition to that, we introduce cross-layer cooperation allowing an efficient use of the available resources. Specific scenarios illustrate the feasibility of our approach.

The building section is providing immediate causes for global climate change problems since it takes about 50% of carbon emission, 20~50% of waste discharge, 33% of energy consumption, 40% of resource use, and 17% of water consumption. So, many countries over the world have developed and implemented green building certification systems to assess sustainable performances of buildings since the early 1990s. In korea, the green building certification system to induce the diffusion of sustainable buildings was first introduced in 2002 and developed as an improved version of the G-SEED(Green Standard for Energy and Environmental Design) system in 2013 after major revisions of related legislations. This research conducts a survey targeting residents on an apartment building that was certified as green building and examines the importance of assessment criteria on apartment buildings to certify green buildings using the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method. And it proposes a new direction on certification assessment standards from the resident's prospective. As a result, assessment criteria such as indoor environment, ecological environment, energy & environment pollution, and maintenance management among 7 main ones turned out important on assessing the G-SEED system for apartment buildings, while criteria such as material & resource, water circulation management, and land use & transportation did relatively unimportant.
