This paper proposes a novel Random Scheduling Algorithm based on Subregion Coverage (RSASC), to solve the SET K-cover problem (an NP-complete problem). SET K-cover problem distributes the set of sensors into the maximum number of mutually exclusive subsets (MESSs) in such a way that each of them can be scheduled for lifetime extension of WSN. Sensor coverage divides the target region into different subregions. RSASC first sorts the subregions in the ascending order concerning their sensor coverage. Then, it forms the subregion groups according to their similar sensor coverage. Lastly, RSASC ensures the K-coverage of each subregion from every group by randomly scheduling the sensors. We consider the target-coverage and area-coverage applications of WSN to analyze the usefulness of our proposed RSASC algorithm. The distinct quality of RSASC is that it utilizes less number of deployed sensors (33% less) to form the optimum number of MESSs with the higher computational speed (saves more than 93% of the time) as compared to the existing three algorithms.

This study aimed to analyze the prioritized area for the functional change of agricultural reservoir according to the rapid urbanization and social changes through the mapping method. Changwon-si, Gimhae-si, and Jinju-si in Gyeongnam province were selected as the study area, considering the results of land-use and cluster analysis. As the planning unit of management area, watershed was used and land coverage map from 1975 to 2015 were analyzed for changes of land use. The reduction ratio (%) of farmland was calculated for identifying the changes in 2013 compared to 1975. As a result, the reduction ratio was 11.9% for Changwon-si, 12.2% for Gimhae-si and 9.3% for Jinju-si, and the number of watershed having functionally reduced potential-area was relatively high in the proportion to the city size.

The number of possible working days is one of the major factors for estimating the coverage area of a combine harvester. The percentages of possible working days at 24 locations were presented by analyzing the amount of rainfall during the working periods of rice harvesting from the end of September to the end of October for past 20 years. The percentages of possible working days ranged from 75% to 85% in most cases.

Reconstruction of submental defects is a challenge that needs to be approached carefully, since many important anatomical structures are located in this small space. Both aesthetic and functional outcomes should be considered during reconstruction. In this report, we describe a case where a superficial branch of the transverse cervical artery (STCA) perforator propeller flap was applied for coverage of the submental area. An 85-year-old woman presented with a 3-cm ovoid mass on her submental area. We covered the large submental defect with a STCA rotational flap in a 180° propeller pattern. The flap survived well without any complications at 1 year of followup. A STCA propeller flap is a useful surgical option in reconstruction for defect coverage of the submental area.

본 논문은 싱크 기반 무선 센서 액터 네트워크에서 액터의 연결성과 커버리지를 향상시키기 위하여 홉 거리를 기반으로 클러스터를 구성하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 싱크로부터 일정한 홉 간격으로 CH(Cluster Head)를 선출함으로써 목표영역에 고르게 분포된 센서 클러스터를 생성한다. CH 선출은 CH 위치에 배치되는 액터들과 싱크의 연결성을 보장하기 위해서 싱크로부터 순차적으로 진행된다. 또한 액터의 커버리지를 향상시키기 위해서 센서 밀도가 높은 영역부터 우선적으로 이루어진다. 제안한 알고리즘을 통하여 일정한 분포로 클러스터를 구성하여 중첩을 최소화함으로써 목표영역에서 생성되는 클러스터 수와 CH 위치에 배치되는 액터 수를 감축한다. 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 제안한 알고리즘이 싱크에 연결이 보장된 액터 네트워크를 형성함을 검증하였다. 그리고 기존의 IDSC 알고리즘에 비해 액터 커버리지를 향상시킴으로써 배치되는 액터 수를 9~20% 감축함을 확인하였다.

최근 실내조명으로 사용하는 LED(Light Emitting Diode)와 무선통신 기술을 융합한 가시광통신이 주목받고 있다. 하지만 가시광 통신은 광 신호를 측정할 수 있는 커버리지 내에서만 통신이 가능하고, 비가시선 영역에서 통신이 단절되는 현상이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 가시광 통신의 커버리지 확장과 비가시선 영역에서 통신 단절 현상 개선을 위해 VLC(Visible Light Communication) 릴레이 모듈을 제안한다. 제안하는 VLC 릴레이 모듈은 송신기로부터 전달받은 패킷을 VLC 릴레이 모듈 및 수신기로 전송한다. 1개의 VLC 송신기와 3개의 VLC 릴레이 모듈을 설치하여 실험을 진행하였으며, VLC 릴레이 모듈의 증가에 따른 통신 커버리지 확장과 비가시선 영역에서 통신 단절 현상 개선을 확인하였다. 또한, 이중 샘플링 기법을 사용하여 광 신호 측정 성능이 2.4배 향상됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper we analyze the performance of a DS/CDMA system in LEO mobile satellite channels. The channel uses the Extended Suzuki model which is the product of a Rician distribution having a LOS component and a lognormal distribution due to shadowing. We assume that the signal transmitted from the satellite to the mobile undergoes the same fading for the whole coverage of signal's beam. The average bit error probabilities of double coverage system is calculated in this paper. The interference resulting from the reference satellite is calculated for mobile located in the middle of the double coverage region whereas the additive interference from next-satellite is included for mobile located in the edge of the double coverage region. The performance of the mobile's receiving signal is dependent on shadowing and the interference of the next-satellite. We can obtain an obtain an improved average bit error probability by using dual diversity over the conventional correlated receiver for similar shadowing conditions in the coverage area of the satellite channel.

For the successful guided bone regeneration(GBR) of maxillary bony defect, proper soft tissue coverage is one of the most important things. Soft tissue dehiscence can be most common reason of osseous reconstruction failure. If a vascular supply to the graft should not develop from the host tissue, then the graft may also foil. Both of these prerequisites can be aided by judicious use of the buccal fat pad(BFP). Many methods for adequate soft tissue coverage have been proposed and the use of the BFP is one of them. BFP is useful in posterior maxillary area, can cover larger area and have higher blood flow than other methods. so the use of the BFP may offer protection and early blood supply to maxillary bone graft. This report describes the history, anatomy, blood flow, and clinical usefulness with two clinical cases.
