In this study, the optimal operating conditions for the dual mixed refrigerant(DMR) cycle were determined by considering the power efficiency. The DMR cycle consists of compressors, heat exchangers, seawater coolers, valves, phase separators, tees, and common headers, and the operating conditions include the equipment's flow rate, pressure, temperature, and refrigerant composition per flow. First, a mathematical model of the DMR cycle was formulated in this study by referring to the results of a past study that formulated a mathematical model of the single mixed refrigerant(SMR) cycle, which consists of compressors, heat exchangers, seawater coolers, and valves, and by considering as well the tees, phase separators, and common headers. Finally, in this study, the optimal operating conditions from the formulated mathematical model was obtained using a hybrid optimization method that consists of the genetic algorithm(GA) and sequential quadratic programming(SQP). Moreover, the required power at the obtained conditions was decreased by 1.4% compared with the corresponding value from the past relevant study of Venkatarathnam.

This study was conducted to examine the mRNA expression of apoptosis-related and imprinted genes and methylation pattern of the differentially methylated region (DMR) of H19 gene in day 35 of SCNT pig fetuses. The day 35 of natural mating (control) or cloned (clone) pig fetuses were recovered from uterus. Endometrium from dam and liver from fetus were obtained, respectively. mRNA expression was evaluated by real-time PCR and methylation pattern was analyzed by bisulfite sequencing method. The Bcl-2 mRNA expression in clone was significantly lower than that of control (p<0.05). The mRNA expression of H19 gene in both endometrium and liver was significantly higher in clone than that of control, respectively (p<0.05). The level of IGF-2 mRNA in liver of clone was significantly lower than that of control (p<0.05), whereas the mRNA expression of IGF2-R gene in liver of clone was significantly higher than that of control (p<0.05). The DMR of H19 was lower methylation pattern in clone than that of control. These results suggest that the aberrant mRNA expression of apoptosis-related and imprinted genes and the lower DMR methylation pattern of imprinted gene may be closely related to the inadequate fetal development of cloned fetus.

In this paper, we experimented how long distance voice communication is possible After implemented PTT(Push to talk) Bi-directional radio using open source project Codec 2, which is a low speed voice codec for digital amateur radio and 900MHz FSK transceiver. In case of a general digital radio, the AMBE+2 codec, which is regarded as an industry standard in terms of performance, is expensive and has the monopoly of technology. Using the 400MHz band in terms of frequency, narrow bandwidth of DMR(12.5kHz) and DPMR(6.25kHz) is used, so the data rate is low. In the 900MHz bandwidth can be extended, which is advantageous in terms of data transmission. As a result of the voice quality and distance field test, we could find that the communication takes place within about 500m. In this paper, only voice communication is reviewed. if a review of data transmission such as a simple image is added, this solution can be used in various fields as a low cost IOT radio.

Radio frequency fingerprinting refers to a methodology that extracts hardware-specific characteristics of a transmitter that are unintentionally embedded in a transmitted waveform. In this paper, we put forward a fingerprinting feature and deep learning structure that can identify the same type of Digital Mobile Radio(DMR) by inputting the in-phase(I) and quadrature(Q). We proposes using the magnitude in polar coordinates of I/Q as RF fingerprinting feature and a modified ResNet-1D structure that can identify them. Experimental results show that our proposed modified ResNet-1D structure can achieve recognition accuracy of 99.5% on 20 DMR.

Rice flours from five rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties with different amylose content were prepared by both wet and dry milling processes. The moisture content of wet-milled rice flours (WMR) was approximately three-times higher than that of dry-milled rice flours (DMR). Water absorption index (WAI), water solubility index (WSI), and swelling power (SP) increased in proportion to temperature. The WAI, WSI and SP values of DMR were higher than those of WMR. Baeokchal (BOC), which is a waxy rice cultivar, had a significantly high WSI value. Pasting properties of DMR, except for the BOC cultivar, resulted in an increase in peak, trough, final, and setback viscosities. The levels of resistant starch in four cultivars, except for Dodamssal (DDS), were under 1%, irrespective of the milling process, whereas the resistant starch contents of DMR and WMR in DDS were 9.18% and 6.27%, respectively. In vitro digestibility of WMR was higher than that of DMR, and the estimated glycemic index of the rice flour varieties ranged from 57.6 to 81.3. Damaged starch content of WMR was less than that of DMR; in addition, a negative correlation was observed between the amylose and damaged starch contents of WMR. These results suggest that the properties of rice flour vary depending on the milling method and flour variety, and could be a reference for selecting the appropriate processing method.

Recently, a new concept for nitrogen removal that is simultaneous nitrification and denitrification(SND) has been studied for wastewater treatment process. The DMR(Daiho Microbic Revolution) process that used in this study consists of two suspended anoxic, anaerobic reactors and an aerobic biofilm reactor. The function of aerobic environment and the intensity of air flow rate(2.0, 1.0, 0.5, 0.4, 0.2 L/min) were studied in the biofilm reactor; also SND and nutrient removal efficiencies were investigated. Experimental results indicated that the change in air flow did not affect COD$_{Cr}$ removal significantly. Thus sustained at 93%. The lower the air flow rate, the higher T-N removal efficiency was attained(i.e.80% at 0.2 L/min). SND efficiency was 62, 65, 72 and 78% corresponding to each air flow rate. T-P removal was sensitive to aeration intensity and removal enhanced from 75% to 96% when the air flow rate was changed from 2.0 to 0.5 L/m; however second release occured in the clarifier at 0.2 L/min. Phosphorus content of activated sludge was 5.0%, as P releases and acetate uptake a ratio of 0.75 mg P/ mg HAc.

Purpose: Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth malformation syndrome caused by a methylation abnormality at chromosome 11p15, consisting of two imprinting centers, BWSIC1 (IGF2, H19) and BWSIC2 (LIT1, KvDMR). This study evaluated the applicability of a methylation-specific (MS) PCR RFLP method for the genetic diagnosis of BWS. Materials and Methods: A total of 12 patients were recruited based on clinical findings. Karyotyping was performed using peripheral blood leukocytes, and genomic DNA was treated with bisulfate and amplified using methylation-specific primers. RFLP was conducted with restriction enzymes in differentially methylated regions of LIT1, H19, and IGF2. Results: The 12 BWS patients had normal karyotypes. Abnormal methylation patterns in the BWSIC2 (LIT1) region were identified in seven patients (58.3%) using the MS-PCR RFLP method. Conclusions: The MS-PCR RFLP method is a simple, economical genetic test. It detected genetic abnormalities in 50-60% of BWS patients, suggesting that it can be used as a screening test. A more precise method is required, however, to enhance the detection rate of genetic abnormalities, especially in BWSIC1 region.

This study analyzed heavy metal concentration, mineral composition, and spectral characteristics of heavy metal contaminated soil samples of cropland and rice field located in downstream of abandoned Okdong coal mine. X-ray fluorescence analysis detected heavy metal elements including cadmium, copper, arsenic, lead, zinc and nickel in the soils. Both cropland and rice field samples were severely contaminated with arsenic showing higher concentration over the concerned standard. The pollution index of cropland samples was higher than that of rice field samples. X-ray powder diffraction analysis identified that the mineral composition of cropland and rice field samples is similar with quartz, calcite, kaolinite, illite, smectite, magnetite and hematite. The range of organic matter content were more widely distributed in cropland samples. The spectral analysis showed that the reflectance spectra and the absorption features of cropland and rice field samples were alike. The absorption features that appeared near 490nm and 900nm were attributed to the ferric iron, and clay minerals such as kaolinite and smectite caused the absorption features at 1410nm, 1910nm and 2200nm. The reflectance of the soil spectral decreased with an increase in organic content. The absorption depths of both types of soil samples decreased with higher organic matter content at 490nm and 1916nm as well as higher heavy metal concentration.

The clustering technique using RF fingerprint extracts the characteristic signature of the transmitters which are embedded in the transmission waveforms. The output of the RF-Fingerprint feature extraction algorithm for clustering identical DMR(Digital Mobile Radios) is a high-dimensional feature, typically consisting of 512 or more dimensions. While such high-dimensional features may be effective for the classifiers, they are not suitable to be used as inputs for the clustering algorithms. Therefore, this paper proposes a dimension reduction algorithm that effectively reduces the dimensionality of the multidimensional RF-Fingerprint features while maintaining the fingerprinting characteristics of the DMRs. Additionally, it proposes a clustering algorithm that can effectively cluster the reduced dimensions. The proposed clustering algorithm reduces the multi-dimensional RF-Fingerprint features using t-SNE, based on KL Divergence, and performs clustering using Density Peaks Clustering (DPC). The performance analysis of the DMR clustering algorithm uses a dataset of 3000 samples collected from 10 Motorola XiR and 10 Wintech N-Series DMRs. The results of the RF-Fingerprinting-based clustering algorithm showed the formation of 20 clusters, and all performance metrics including Homogeneity, Completeness, and V-measure, demonstrated a performance of 99.4%.

Since the existing analog village broadcasting system has some technical problems in applying and degradations in performance due to its old equipments, it had been required recently to be changed to a wireless digital system and to develop the standardization. However, it is important to analyze the interference between villages in deploying the efficient digital wireless village broadcasting system. In this paper, simulations for co-channel and adjacent channel interference have been carried out considering digital private mobile radio(dPMR) and digital mobile radio(DMR) systems as a representative mobile radio. These results for frequency reuse and channel separation drawn from the separation distance between villages in co-channel interference and the frequency offset in adjacent interference can be helpful to establish a standard and the testing service in the near future.
