In this Paper, We propose an efficient iteration decoding control method with variable iteration decoding of iteration codes decoding using Cyclic Redundancy Check. As the number of iterations increases, the bit error rate and frame error rate of the decoder decrease and the incremental improvement gradually diminishes. However, when the iteration decoding number is increased, it require much delay and amount of processing time for decoding. Also, It can be observed the error nor that the performance cannot be improved even though increasing of the number of iterations and SNR. So, Suitable number of iterations for stopping criterion is required. we propose variable iteration control method to adapt variation of channel using Frame Error-Check indicator. Therefore, the amount of computation and the number of iterations required for iteration decoding with CRC method can be reduced without sacrificing performance.

To privide multimedia mobile communication services for the users in scattered locations, the application ATM cells efficiently in wireless communications, it is effective to the use TDMA method. However, it is necessary to have methods to compensate the CDV(cell delay variation) caused by the difference between TDMA-ATM and cell stream multiplexing of the users. This paper optimizes the cell control time(Tc) when VBR traffic inputs have MMPP by applying CDV characteristics of time stamp method, which has the most advantages among compensation methods of CDV. This paper suggests a cell stream multiplex method employing time stamp techniques to reduce CDV for wireless suggest method shows that CDV distribution and cell stream multiples rangd can be controlled to 1.2${\times}$Tc which reduced over the VBR service in the TDMA-WATM transmission. This paper also presents evaluation of the suggested architecture obtained simulation.

This paper presents a wide-range speed control scheme of brushless DC (BLDC) motors based on a hall sensor with separated low- and normal-speed controllers. However, the use of the hall sensor signal is insufficient to detect motor speed in the low-speed region because of low sensor resolution and time delay. In the proposed method, a micro-stepping current control method according to the torque angle variation is presented. In this mode, the motor current frequency and rotating angle are determined by the reference speed without the actual speed fed by the hall sensor. The detected torque angle is used to adjust the current value in a limited band to control the current value in accordance with the load. The torque angle is detected exactly at the changing point of the hall sensor signal. The rotor can follow the rotating flux with the variable torque angle. In a normal speed range, the conventional vector control scheme is used to control the motor current with a PI speed controller using the hall sensor. The torque characteristics are analyzed on the basis of the back EMF and current shape. To adopt the vector control scheme, the continuous rotor position is estimated by the measured speed and hall sensor position. At the mode changing point between low and normal speed range, the proper initial current command and reference rotor position are calculated. The calculated current command can reduce the torque ripple during transient mode. The proposed method is simple but effective in extending the speed control range of a conventional BLDC motor with hall sensor without the need for a high-resolution encoder. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by various experiments on a practical BLDC motor.

Composite wood materials are very sensitive to water and inspection without any coupling medium of a liquid is really needed to wood materials due to the permeation of coupling medium such as water. However, air-coupled ultrasound has obvious advantages over water-coupled experimentation compared with conventional C-scanner. In this work, it is desirable to perform contact-less nondestructive evaluation to assess wood material homogeneity. A wood material was nondestructively characterized with non-contact and contact modes to measure ultrasonic velocity using automated data acquisition software. We have utilized a proposed peak-delay measurement method. Also through transmission mode was performed because of the main limitation for air-coupled transducers, which is the acoustic impedance mismatch between most materials and air. The variation of ultrasonic velocity was found to be somewhat difference due to air-coupled limitations over conventional scan images. However, conventional C-scan images are well agreed with increasing the resin-infiltrated time as expected. Finally, we have developed a measurement system of an ultrasonic velocity based on data acquisition software for obtaining ultrasonic quantitative data for correlation with C-scan images.

Garlic (Allium sativum) are an agronomically important genus because of their sulfur flavour components. The majority of the volatiles flavour principles are generated through the enzymatic hydrolysis of the non-volatile organosulfur compounds. However, these compounds may be possible sources of new novel bioacuve and therapeutic principles. Garlic has strong antioxidant activity, and epidemiological studies support the fad that diets rich of garlic may prevent some of the chronic diseases. The health cares of garlic likely arise from a wide variety of components, which may work synergistically. The chemical changes of garlic composition makes it plausible that a variation in processing can lead to acquisition of differential chemical compositions of garlic products. Especially highly unstable allicin can easily disappear during processing and are quickly transformed into a various organosulfur compounds. Various supplements of garlic, particularly aged garlic extract (AGE), are known to possess a promising antioxidant potential and are effective in prevention of chronic diseases because of the bioactive constituents. Although all of active ingredients of AGE are not elucidated, water-soluble components of AGE, including S-allylcysteine, S-allylmercaptane, steroid saponins, tetrahydro-${\beta}$-carboline derivatives, and fructosyl-arginine, appears to be associated with the pharmacological effects of AGE. Consequently, the allicin free garlic components such as S-allylcysteine, S-allylmercaptane, steroid saponins, tetrahydro-${\beta}$-carboline derivatives, and fructosyl-arginine can be applicable to standardization of the quality of commercial garlic products. This review provides an insight into garlic's biomarkers and presents evidence that they may either prevent or delay chronic disease associated with aging.

The packet error rates of an optical packet switching node with an optical address processor using an EDFA in order to detect M-ary correlation pulses at a fiber-optical delay line matched filter output have been evaluated. Effects of A PIN diode NEP, the gain and noise figure of the EDFA, and the bandwidth of an optical filter on the packet error rate of the switching node have been compared. There is negligible error rate change depending upon the variation of the PIN diode NEP and the EDFA gain. If the bandwidth of the optical filter is below 10 times of the data rate, there is no appreciable effect on the error rate. If the noise figure of the EDFA increases, however, the power penalty increases as much as the noise figure increment at all the bit rates and for address code sets considered in this work.

An improved backoff algorithm for retransmission randomization for OFDMA/CDMA/slotted ALOHA used in the ranging subchannel of IEEE 802.16 network is proposed. Exploiting the fact that a base station coordinates channel access using UL-/DL-MAP in the IEEE 802.16 networks, we propose a minor modification of the existing IEEE 802.16 in order to increase throughput, decrease delay variation and achieve a graceful performance degradation in case of overload channel condition of the random access protocol. The algorithm basically estimates the number of backlogged users and arrival rate using which, the BS calculates retransmission probability for the subscriber stations involved in a collision. Computer simulation is performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and to compare the performance with existing binary exponential backoff algorithm.

The checkpointing schemes should reduce the process delay through managing the checkpoints of each node to fit the network load to enhance the performance of the process running on the cluster system that write the checkpoints into its global stable storage. For this reason, a cluster system with single IO space on a distributed RAID chooses a suitable checkpointng scheme to get the maximum IO performance and the best rollback recovery efficiency. In this paper, we improved the striped checkpointing scheme with dynamic stripe group size by adapting to the network bandwidth variation at the point of checkpointing. To analyze the performance of the multi striped checkpointing scheme, we applied Linpack HPC benchmark with MPI on our own cluster system with maximum 512 virtual nodes. The benchmark results showed that the multistriped checkpointing scheme has better performance than the striped checkpointing scheme on the checkpoint writing efficiency and rollback recovery at heavy system load.

In this paper, we fabricated pressure difference type gas flow sensor using only dry etching technology by ICP-RIE(inductive coupled plasma reactive ion etching). The sensor's structure consists of a common shear stress type piezoresistive pressure sensor with an orifice fabricated in the middle of the sensor diaphragm. Generally, structure like diaphragm is fabricated by wet etching technology using TMAH, but we fabricated diaphragm by only dry etching using ICP-RIE. To equalize the thickness of diaphragm we applied insulator($SiO_2$) layer of SOI(Si/$SiO_2$/Si-sub) wafer as delay layer of dry etching. Size of fabricated diaphragm is $1000{\times}1000{\times}7\;{\mu}m^3$ and overall chip $3000{\times}3000{\times}7\;{\mu}m^3$. We measured the variation of output voltage toward the change of gas pressure to analyze characteristics of the fabricated sensor. Sensitivity of fabricated sensor was relatively high as about 1.5mV/V kPa at 1kPa full-scale. Nonlinearity was below 0.5%F.S. Over-pressure range of the fabricated sensor is 100kPa or more.

In order to investigate $CO_2$ heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop by PAG oil concentration during $CO_2$ evaporation, the experiment on evaporation heat transfer characteristics in a mini-channels were performed. The experimental apparatus consisted of a test section, a DC power supply, a heater, a chiller, a mass flow meter, a pump and a measurement system. Experiment was conducted for various mass fluxes($300{\sim}800kg/m^{2}s$), heat fluxes($10{\sim}40kW/m^2$) saturation temperatures($-5{\sim}5^{\circ}C$), and PAG oil concentration(0, 3, 5wt%). The variation of the heat transfer coefficient was different according to the oil concentration. With the increase of the oil concentration, the evaporation heat transfer coefficient decreased and the delay of dryout by oil addition was found. Pressure drop increased with the increase of the oil concentration and heat flux, and the decrease of saturation temperature.
