This paper considers a two-user Gaussian interference channel with energy harvesting transmitters. Different than conventional battery powered wireless nodes, energy harvesting transmitters have to adapt transmission to availability of energy at a particular instant. In this setting, the optimal power allocation problem to maximize the sum throughput with a given deadline is formulated. The convergence of the proposed iterative coordinate descent method for the problem is proved and the short-term throughput maximizing offline power allocation policy is found. Examples for interference regions with known sum capacities are given with directional water-filling interpretations. Next, stochastic data arrivals are addressed. Finally, online and/or distributed near-optimal policies are proposed. Performance of the proposed algorithms are demonstrated through simulations.

기지국의 전송 파워를 서비스 받는 단말로 집중시키는 방향성 전송은 이동통신 시스템의 수율을 극대화함으로써 현재 이동통신 시스템이 직면한 가장 큰 문제인 데이터 트래픽 폭증 문제를 해결하는데 도움을 줄 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 방향성 전송을 사용하는 이동통신 시스템을 위한 파워 할당 방안을 고려하였다. 특히 기지국의 각 섹터에서 다수의 방향성 전송을 이용하여 여러 단말을 동시에 서비스하는 환경에서 각 방향성 전송의 전송 파워를 효율적으로 조절해 주는 방안에 대해서 고려하였다. 이를 위해 동일 파워 할당방안, Water-filling 방안 및 역 채널 할당 방안을 고려하였고, 방향성 전송간의 간섭을 고려하여 시스템의 수율을 최대화하기 위한 방안인 방향성 전송 파워 할당 방안을 제안하였다. 또한 기존에 개발한 시스템 레벨 시뮬레이터를 활용하여 다양한 파워 할당 방안들의 성능(대역 효율 및 Jain's Fairness Index)을 분석하였고 이를 통해 제안한 파워 할당 방식이 기존의 파워 조절 방안들에 비해서 시스템의 대역 효율을 최대 28% 향상시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

Recently, the application range of plastic gears is widely expanding by the development of engineering plastics with good mechanical properties. Plastic gears have excellent performances such as light weight, water resistance and vibration absorbing ability for metallic gears. In this study, the optimization of injection molding process was done for the large disk type plastic gears of auto phoropter. Design Of Experiment (Taguchi method) was adopted to find a tendency of molding conditions that influence the flatness of disk type gear. Four main factors for molding conditions were selected based on injection temperature, filling time, packing pressure and mold temperature. Also, Filling, packing and cooling analyses were carried out to evaluate Z directional deflection of large disk type gear by using the simulation software (Moldflow) based on the DOE. From the results, it was found that the injection temperature and packing pressure are the most sensitive parameters for the Z directional deflection of large disk type gears.

Accurate atmospheric correction is essential for the analysis of land surface and environmental monitoring. Aerosol optical depth (AOD) information is particularly important in atmospheric correction because the radiation attenuation by Mie scattering makes the differences between the radiation calculated at the satellite sensor and the radiation measured at the land surface. Thus, it is necessary to use high-quality AOD data for an appropriate atmospheric correction of high-resolution satellite images. In this study, we examined the Second Simulation of a Satellite Signal in the Solar Spectrum (6S)-based atmospheric correction results for the Sentinel-2 images in South Korea using raster AOD (MODIS) and single-point AOD (AERONET). The 6S result was overall agreed with the Sentinel-2 level 2 data. Moreover, using raster AOD showed better performance than using single-point AOD. The atmospheric correction using the single-point AOD yielded some inappropriate values for forest and water pixels, where as the atmospheric correction using raster AOD produced stable and natural patterns in accordance with the land cover map. Also, the Sentinel-2 normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) after the 6S correction had similar patterns to the up scaled drone NDVI, although Sentinel-2 NDVI had relatively low values. Also, the spatial distribution of both images seemed very similar for growing and harvest seasons. Future work will be necessary to make efforts for the gap-filling of AOD data and an accurate bi-directional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) model for high-resolution atmospheric correction. These methods can help improve the land surface monitoring using the future Compact Advanced Satellite 500 in South Korea.
