OFDMA방식의 무선 다중 접속 시스템의 상향링크에서 기지국으로부터 서로 다른 거리에 있는 각각의 단말들의 시간동기를 위한 적응적 레인징 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 Timing Phase Compensated Frequency Domain Cross-correlation(TPCFDC)와 Frequency Domain Differential Cross-correlation(FDDC)를 동시에 사용함으로써 TPCFDC의 단점인 Round Trip Delay(RTD)의 범위에 따라 증가되는 상관기의 개수를 줄이고 FDDC를 이용하여 반복적인 레인징을 시도함으로써 초기 레인징을 위한 하드웨어 복잡도를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 제안 기법의 성능을 레인징 성공확률과 시도회수 측면에서 모의실험 하였으며 복잡도가 기존에 비해 10배 가량 감소하더라도 기존 방식과 유사한 레인징 성공 확률을 보임을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we extended a hierarchical clustering technique, which is the most researched in the sensor network field, and studied a dynamic differential clustering technique to minimize energy consumption and ensure equal lifespan of all sensor nodes while considering the mobility of sinks. In a sensor network environment with mobile sinks, clusters close to the sinks tend to consume more forwarding energy. Therefore, clustering that considers forwarding energy consumption is desired. Since all clusters form a hierarchical tree, the number of levels of the tree must be considered based on the size of the cluster so that the cluster size is not growing abnormally, and the energy consumption is not concentrated within specific clusters. To verify that the proposed DDC protocol satisfies these requirements, a simulation using Matlab was performed. The FND (First Node Dead), LND (Last Node Dead), and residual energy characteristics of the proposed DDC protocol were compared with the popular clustering protocols such as LEACH and EEUC. As a result, it was shown that FND appears the latest and the point at which the dead node count increases is delayed in the DDC protocol. The proposed DDC protocol presents 66.3% improvement in FND and 13.8% improvement in LND compared to LEACH protocol. Furthermore, FND improved 79.9%, but LND declined 33.2% when compared to the EEUC. This verifies that the proposed DDC protocol can last for longer time with more number of surviving nodes.

Although considerable research has been done on the blood picture of the horse, hot-blooded and cold-blooded, little work has been made of the blood picture of the army pack horse, Jeju horse. The object of the present investigation was to make good this deficiency, and to suggest standard for the blood picture of army pack horses kept under the regular military training and the ideal feeding in the heart of a mountain. Blood samples were drawn from the jugular vein through a 15-gauge bleeding needle from 41 males and 28 females, aging 3 to 9 years old. It was taken between seven and nine o'clock in the morning. Animals were handled as quietly as possible to avoid any excitation. No restraint other than a halter was used. Enumeration of erythrocyte, total and differential leukocyte count, determination of hemoglobin in blood, and the value of packed cell volume were male in the usual manner, and erythrocytic constant was calculated by the method of Wintrobe. Erythrocyte count was $7.83{\pm}0.20(4.95{\sim}11.05){\times}10^6/mm^3$(SE). This value was much lower than hot-horses, but slightly higer than the values of cold-horse reported from foreign country. Concentration of hemoglobin in blood was $13.0{\pm}0.33(9.5{\sim}17.8)g/100ml$. This value was much higher than that of cold-horses observed by the other authors, approaching to the values of hot-horses. Packed cell volume was $32.1{\pm}0.92(22{\sim}42)ml/100ml$. This vague was a little higher than that of the other cold-horses. Mean corpuscular volume was $41.5{\pm}1.20(26.6{\sim}59.3){\mu}m^3$. This value matched so well with the other results recorded by various investigators. Mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration were $16.9{\pm}0.43(12.3{\sim}25)$ pg and $41.0{\pm}0.45(29.1{\sim}51.1)g/100ml$, respectively. These values were significantly higher than the values found by the other investigations. Total leukocyte enumeration was $10.5{\pm}0.41(5.6{\sim}17.9){\times}10^3/mm^3$, being considered as normal. And differential leukocyte count of neutrophil was $44.5{\pm}2.23(15{\sim}76)%$, $5,527{\pm}234(2,231{\sim}9,144)/mm^3$, of lymphocyte $50.5{\pm}1.19(19{\sim}77)%$, $4,307{\pm}125(1,456{\sim}11,098)/mm^3$, of monocytel (0~4)%, $105(0{\sim}352)/mm^3$, of eosiophil 3.2(0~14)%, $340(0{\sim}1,232)/mm^3$ and of basophil 0.25(0~3)%, $23(0{\sim}236)/mm^3$. The percentage of the differential count obtained from the present work showed a good agreement with the results of various authors. Of the horses examined monocyte was found from 42 horses, eosinophil from 62 horses and basophil from 10 horses. No significant differences recognized between male and female horses, and the effect of age was not observed between three to nine years old. Judging from the blood picture of the present investigation, it could be stated that the army pack horses on training were kept better than the average farming conditions.

The purpose of this study was to develop a simple detection method, possibly at the species-level, that allows for large-scale screening of bifidobacteria. Human fecal samples were plated on MRS-raffinose agar containing cysteine and neomycin sulfate, serving as selective pressure for bifidobacteria, and 0.003%(w/v) bromocresol green. All of the test strains grew well on this medium at $37{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, forming white colonies surrounded by yellow halos, which presented a sharp contrast against the green background. In this disc assay, the required incubation time to develop a yellowish zone varied with the species of Bifidobacterium that was tested, allowing for differential counts and easy identification at the species-level: 10-14 hr for B. bifidum, 20-22 hr for B. catenulatum and B. infantis. and 24-25 hr for B. longum and B. breve. No apparent color was observed for B. angulatum and B. adolescentis 28 hr after inoculation. To evaluate the results of pH indicator-based identification, individual isolates were subjected to a colony-PCR experiment with genus-specific primers. The amplified products from the isolates were in good accordance with those from the reference strains at a level of 95% agreement. These results suggest that the present method could be conveniently applied to cell counts, as well as to the preliminary identification of bifidobacteria from a variety of sample types including human feces, dairy products, and commercial probiotic supplements.

The Differential Power Processing (DPP) converter is a promising multi-module photovoltaic inverter architecture recently proposed for photovoltaic systems. In this paper, a DPP converter architecture, in which each PV-panel has its own DPP converter in shunt, performs distributed maximum power point tracking (DMPPT) control. It maintains a high energy conversion efficiency, even under partial shading conditions. The system architecture only deals with the power differences among the PV panels, which reduces the power capacity of the converters. Therefore, the DPP systems can easily overcome the conventional disadvantages of PCS such as centralized, string, and module integrated converter (MIC) topologies. Among the various types of the DPP systems, the feed-forward method has been selected for both its voltage balancing and power transfer to a modified H-bridge inverter that needs charge balancing of the input capacitors. The modified H-bridge multi-level inverter had some advantages such as a low part count and cost competitiveness when compared to conventional multi-level inverters. Therefore, it is frequently used in photovoltaic (PV) power conditioning system (PCS). However, its simplified switching network draws input current asymmetrically. Therefore, input capacitors in series suffer from a problem due to a charge imbalance. This paper validates the operating principle and feasibility of the proposed topology through the simulation and experimental results. They show that the input-capacitor voltages maintain the voltage balance with the PV MPPT control operating with a 140-W hardware prototype.

Objective: This study was performed to explore the possibility that each oocyte and its surrounding cumulus cells might have different genetic expression patterns that could affect human reproduction. Methods: Differential gene expression analysis was performed for 10 clusters of cumulus cells obtained from 10 cumulus-oocyte complexes from 10 patients. Same procedures related to oocyte maturation, microinjection, and microarray analyses were performed for each group of cumulus cells. Two differential gene expression analyses were performed: one for the outcome of clinical pregnancy and one for the outcome of live birth. Results: Significant genes resulting from these analyses were selected and the top 20 affected pathways in each group were analyzed. Circadian entrainment is determined to be the most affected pathway for clinical pregnancy, and proteoglycans in cancer pathway is the most affected pathway for live birth. Circadian entrainment is also amongst the 12 pathways that are found to be in top 20 affected pathways for both outcomes, and has both lowest p-value and highest number of times found count. Conclusion: Although further confirmatory studies are necessary, findings of this study suggest that these pathways, especially circadian entrainment in cumulus cells, may be essential for embryo development and pregnancy.

The complete blood count and serum biochemical parameters are essential tools for diagnosis and monitoring of physiological and disease conditions in dogs. These parameters may be affected by the breed and age of dogs. This study aimed to compare the changes of complete blood count and serum biochemical parameters according to the increasing age in 156 Sapsarees. In this study, the Sapsarees were clustered into ten age groups: four to six months, seven to nine months, ten to twelve months, one year, two years, three to four years, five to six years, seven to eight years, nine to ten years, and, eleven to twelve years old. In the result of the complete blood count, the total red blood cell count (P<0.001), hematocrit (P<0.001), and hemoglobin (P<0.001) values were significantly increased from 4~6 months to 2 years old Sapsarees. While the mean corpuscular volume (P<0.001) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (P<0.001) values were significantly increased from 4~6 months to 3~4 years old. The mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration was significantly (P=0.037) increased from 4~6 to 10~12-month-old Sapsarees. Total white cell count was significantly (P<0.001) decreased from 1 year to 9~10 years old. The result of differential white blood cell count showed that neutrophil count was significantly (P<0.001) increased from the age 4~6 months to 11~12 years old Sapsarees, whereas, lymphocyte (P<0.001), monocyte (P<0.001), and eosinophil (P=0.042) counts were significantly decreased from 7~9 months to 7~8 years, 4~6 months to 9~10 years, 3~4 to 5~6 years old, respectively. In the serum biochemistry result, the creatinine concentration was significantly (P<0.001) increased from 4~6 to 10~12 months, but significantly (P=0.006) decreased from 7~8 to 10~12 years old. Phosphate concentration was significantly (P<0.001) decreased from 3~4 to 9~10 years old, but significantly (P=0.021) increased from 9~10 to 11~12 years old. Calcium concentration significantly (P<0.001) decreased from 10~12 months to 11~12 years old. Total protein concentration significantly (P<0.001) increased from 4~6 months to 2 years old. While concentrations of albumin (P=0.004) and globulin (P<0.001) was significantly increased from 4~6 months to 3~4 years old, and from 4~6 months to 11~12 years old, respectively. The alkaline phosphate concentration was significantly (P<0.001) decreased from 4~6 months to 2 years old. We found that there are differences in the hematological parameters in relation with the increasing age in Sapsaree breed.
