  • In the last decade, many methods such as greet chamber, reservoir, or debris barrier, have been utilized to manage and prevent muddy water problem. The Vegetative Filter Strip (VFS) has been thought to be one of the most effective methods to trap sediment effectively. The VFS are usually installed at the edge of agricultural areas adjacent to stream or drainage ditches, and it has been shown that the VFS effectively removes pollutants transported with upland runoff. But, if the VFS is installed without any scientific analysis of rainfall-runoff characteristics, soil erosion, and sediment analysis, it may not reduce the sediment as much as expected. Although Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model has been used worldwide for many hydrologic and Non-Point Source Pollution (NPSP) analysis at a watershed scale. but it has many limitations in simulating the VFS. Because it considers only 'filter strip width' when the model estimates sediment trapping efficiency, and does not consider the routing of sediment with overland flow option which is expected to maximize the sediment trapping efficiency from upper agricultural subbasin to lower spatially-explicit filter strip. Therefore, the SWAT overland flow option between landuse-subbasins with sediment routing capability was enhanced with modifications in SWAT watershed configuration and SWAT engine. The enhanced SWAT can simulate the sediment trapping efficiency of the VFS in the similar way as the desktop VFSMOD-w system does. Also it now can simulate the effects of overland flow from upper subbasin to reflect the increased runoff volume at the receiving subbasin, which is what is occurring at the field if no diversion channel is installed. In this study, the enhanced SWAT model was applied to small watershed located at Jaun-ri in South Korea to simulate diversion channel and spatially-explicit VFS. It was found that approximately sediment can be reduced by 31%, 65%, 68%, with diversion channel, the VFS, and the VFS with diversion channel, respectively.

  • This study investigated design factors and removal efficiencies of a sheet flow channel as natural type water improvement techniques in the stream. The channel was designed considering the design factors, then constructed and monitored in the test bed of the Osan stream's floodplain. Water lever, velocity, discharge, T-P, T-N, and NO3-N were monitored and the removal efficiencies and design formula were suggested. Overall efficiencies of T-P, T-N, and NO3-N range 10 - 20%, and they show consistent relations with residence times. Minimum velocity requirement is also suggested from the relation of algae conditions and velocities. Relation formula of residence time and removal efficiency will be applicable in the design and operation process of a sheet flow channel.

  • Based on this article, I have analyzed the OFDM system which applies three types of equalizer forms in the two-path channel of the microwave baseband. The Two-path channel of microwave baseband had been simulated through the Rummler channel. In the Two-path channel, the OFDM system which has three forms of equalizer has been analyzed and the result is, equalizer 1-tab has great improvement in efficiency compared with Pre-FFT 11-tab which has noise power ratio less than 18dB. On the contrary, if the symbol energy to the noise ratio is more than 18dB, the equalizer which applies Pre-FFT 11-tab has greater efficiency compared to the equalizer which applies 1-tab frequency. Last but not least, the OFDM system which applies Dual equalizer has better efficiency compared to the system which has 1-tab frequency and equalizer which applies Pre-FFT 11-tab.

  • In this paper, we analyze performance of PSPM(Phase Shift Position Modulation) modulation scheme in multi-path channel. A PSPM modulation method transmits the information data by both PSK symbol data and symbol position data, so that we can significantly improve the power efficiency. The bandwidth efficiency of PSPM is quarter than PSK but improve BER performance, because increasing symbol hamming distance. In this results, a PSPM scheme is bandwidth efficiency better than FSK and power efficiency better than PSK. This characteristic can be useful in WBAN and wireless sensor networks also PSPM modulation method can be expected high throughput than existing FSK. In this paper, we compare PSPM, PSSK and PSK regard to BER performance and throughput in multi-path channel.

  • Due to the complexity of underwater acoustic channel, signal estimation in underwater acoustic communication field is considerably affected from time-varying multipath fading channels. On this reason, the original signals should have many long training signals to estimate the channel and the purposed signals, and the bit rate of signals having information may have small rate. In order to avoid this loss of efficiency in underwater communication, this paper employed a blind channel identification method which don't use training signals. Simulations have predicted performance of the employed method in multipath environment and an aquatic plant experiment has verified the simulation results.

  • The adaptive coded modulation (ACM) is a promissing way to provide a substantial improvement in spectral efficiency for slow fading channels. The basic idea is to adapt system functional-ity such as modulation, coding, information rate, and transmission power to varying channel conditions. In this work, the potential of adaptive coded modulation is investigated using cut-off rate anal-ysis in a unified way and using computer simulation. The anal-ysis includes various effects of fading channels such as feedback delay and channel prediction error. It was shown that the adaptive coded modulation can provide several folds of increase in spectral efficiency compared to a fixed coded-modulation system employing QPSK when channel varies slowly.

  • To provide fairness among different ONUs in EPON, the upstream channel remains idle for some time after OLT receives the buffer status from all ONUs every cycle, which decreases the utilization and increases the delay. To solve this deficiency, we present a new grant scheduling method. The method consists of dividing ONUs into several sets where OLT can schedule ONUs in one set while others will be transmitting their traffic. This method will better utilize the bandwidth of EPON. The numerical results show that the larger the number of ONU sets is the smaller the minimum overhead becomes.

  • In the era of 6G, the rapid increase in communication data volume poses higher demands on traditional channel estimation techniques and those based on deep learning, especially when processing large-scale data as their computational load and real-time performance often fail to meet practical requirements. To overcome this bottleneck, this paper introduces quantum computing techniques, exploring for the first time the application of Quantum Generative Adversarial Networks (QGAN) to broadband channel estimation challenges. Although generative adversarial technology has been applied to channel estimation, obtaining instantaneous channel information remains a significant challenge. To address the issue of instantaneous channel estimation, this paper proposes an innovative QGAN with a dual-module design in the generator. The adversarial loss function and the Mean Squared Error (MSE) loss function are separately applied for the parameter updates of these two modules, facilitating the learning of statistical channel information and the generation of instantaneous channel details. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed dual-module QGAN technique in channel estimation on the Pennylane quantum computing simulation platform. This research opens a new direction for physical layer techniques in wireless communication and offers expanded possibilities for the future development of wireless communication technologies.
