In this paper, modified two-port time-domain passivity approach is proposed for stable bilateral control of teleoperators under time-varying communication delay. We separate input and output energy at each port of a bilateral controller, and propose a sufficient condition for satisfying the passivity of the bilateral controller including time-delay. Output energy at the master port should be less than the transmitted input energy from the slave port with time-delay, and output energy at the slave port should be less than the transmitted input energy from the master port with time-delay. For satisfying above two conditions, two passivity controllers are attached at each port of the bilateral controller. A packet reflector with wireless internet connection is used to introduce serious time-varying communication delay of teleoperators. Average amount of time-delay was about 190(msec) for round trip, and varying between 175(msec) and 275(msec). Moreover some data packet was lost during the communication due to UDP data communication. Even under the serious time-varying delay and packet loss communication condition, the proposed approach can achieve stable teleoperation in free motion and hard contact as well.

A new non-destructive evaluation method using tapping sound is proposed. This method, named Tapping Sound Analysis, is using the difference between tapping sound data of healthy structure and defective structure as the criteria of determination of internal defect of composite structure. For the characterization of tapping sound, a feature extraction method based on wavelet packet transform is proposed. And a feature index is defined for the decision of existence of internal defects. To prove the possibility of proposed method as a non-destructive evaluation method, experimental study is performed. The tapping sound data of healthy structure and defective structure are measured and compared based on the proposed decision method. The experimental results showed that the feature index is a good indicator for the determination of internal defects.

The internet phones that are currently available in use adopt packet exchange system, transferring through various routes and lacking sufficient band width with a result that there is an accompanied delay for packet transmission since the traffic is increased, accordingly affecting a lot in sound quality and speed. Two solutions for such troubles are suggested in this study to improve sound quality of internet phones. Firstly, we minimize the delay and damage regarding packet size based on traffic size by using the data algorithm from variable packets in order to supplement decreased sound quality due to the delay and damage of sound data. The second suggestion is to employ a method of Jitter compensation by giving an appropriate initial delay time with regenerating buffers to bypass troubles from Jitter, From employing the Jitter compensation method, we found that there is a sound quality improvement due to the less stoppage phenomenon.

In this paper, we propose a media processor to provide interactive services in mobile multimedia broadcasting environments. The proposed system Is designed to support various functionalities, such as generation of MPEG-4 IOD (Initial Object Descriptor)/OD(Object Descriptor)/BIFS (Binary Format for Scene) data, encapsulation of MPEG-4 AVC (Advanced Video Coding)/BSAC (Bit Sliced Arithmetic Coding) stream and generated IOD/OD/BIFS data into SL (Sync Layer) packet, packetization of SL packet into TS (Transport Stream) packet and multiplexing. The proposed media processor can provide MPEG-4 based interactive services for users.

In this paper, an RRA_CDMA protocol is proposed for the integrated voice and data services in the cellular packet CDMA systems. The proposed protocol employs the RRA scheme. In the cellular CDMA systems, the backward logical channels are composed of time slots with multiple spreading codes per slot based on WB-TD-CDMA concept. When a voice terminal begins a talkspurt, it reserves one of the available spreading codes in the next slot and uses the reserved channel exclusively untill it ends the talkspurt. On th other hand, whenever a data terminal generates a packet, it selects an avaliable spreading code and transmits its packet. Throughout the results, it is shown that the system capacity increases in proportion to the number of spreading codes.

Greedy forwarding is a key mechanism of geographic routing using distance as a metric. As greedy forwarding only uses 1-hop neighbor node information, it minimizes routing overhead and is highly scalable. In existing greedy forwarding schemes, a node selects a next forwarding node based only on the distance. However, the signal strength in a realistic environment reduces exponentially depending on the distance, so that by considering only the distance, it may cause a large number of data packet retransmissions. To solve this problem, many greedy forwarding schemes have been proposed. However, they do not consider the unreliable and asymmetric characteristics of wireless links and thus cause the waste of limited battery resources due to the data packet retransmissions. In this paper, we propose a reliable and energy-efficient opportunistic greedy forwarding scheme for unreliable and asymmetric links (GF-UAL). In order to further improve the energy efficiency, GF-UAL opportunistically uses the path that is expected to have the minimum energy consumption among the 1-hop and 2-hop forwarding paths within the radio range. Comprehensive simulation results show that the packet delivery rate and energy efficiency increase up to about 17% and 18%, respectively, compared with the ones in PRR${\times}$Distance greedy forwarding.

In this paper, macro diversity coding methods are proposed to efficiently transmit broadcast packet data over mobile cellular networks based on OFDM. In the method, cells are divided into multiple cell groups which transmit one of two orthogonal branches in a transmit diversity code. Furthermore, a coded packet is partitioned into the subblocks for which different cell group combinations are assigned to transmit two different branches. The methods extend the cell coverage at the same transmit power due to the transmit diversity of each symbol and coding diversity obtained through different fading statistics over the subblocks.

A home healthcare system based wireless sensor network, which can continuously monitor and manage the elderly's electrocardiogram(ECG) signal at any space at home without space limit is proposed. The communication coverage of wireless network is expended by multi-hop wireless sensor network. In order to send the elderly's ECG data wirelessly, a small size ECG sensor node was designed to forward the ECG data over multi-hop relay network. The packet acquired by mobile ECG node is transmitted through wireless intermediate nodes to base station for analyzing the packet reception rate. Modified minimum cost forwarding(MMCF) protocol and flooding protocol are designed and implemented to check the transmission efficiency of a packet in a wireless sensor network. The developed MMCF protocol shows an advantage of high reception rate by reduced network traffic.

The wavelet packet transform has been applied for QRS detection with squaring, window integration, and impulse filter techniques to cut down the false detection of QRS complex. This real time QRS detection has been performed on Simulink and Matlab. The correct QRS detection rates have reached to 99.75% in the experiment with 15 sets of ECG data from European ST-T database which are kept in Physionet.
