위치 기반 서비스는 이동체의 위치에 종속적인 결과를 얻는 위치 기반 질의를 필요로 한다. 이동체의 위치는 연속적으로 변하기 때문에, 이동체의 색인은 변경된 위치 정보를 유지하기 위하여 빈번한 갱신 연산을 수행해야 한다. 기존의 공간 색인들(그리드 파일, R-트리, KDB-트리 등)은 정적 데이터를 검색하는데 효과적인 색인이다. 이들 색인은 연속적으로 위치 데이터가 변경되는 이동체 데이터베이스의 색인으로는 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 삽입/삭제 비용이 적은 동적 해슁 색인을 제안한다. 동적 해슁 색인 구조는 해쉬와 트리를 결합한 동적 해슁 기술을 공간 색인에 적용한 것이다. 실험 결과에서 동적 해슁 색인은 $R^*$-tree와 고정 그리드 보다 성능이 우수하였다.

Two-phase compressible flow fields of air-water are investigated numerically in the fixed Eulerian grid framework. The phase interface is captured via volume fractions of each phase. A way to model two phase compressible flows as a single phase one is found based on an equivalent equation of states of Tait's type for a multiphase cell. The equivalent single phase field is discretized using the Roe‘s approximate Riemann solver. Two approaches are tried to suppress the pressure oscillation phenomena at the phase interface, a passive advection of volume fraction and a direct pressure relaxation with the compressible form of volume fraction equation. The direct pressure equalizing method suppresses pressure oscillation successfully and generates sharp discontinuities, transmitting and reflecting acoustic waves naturally at the phase interface. In discretizing the compressible form of volume fraction equation, phase interfaces are geometrically reconstructed to minimize the numerical diffusion of volume fraction and relevant variables. The motion of a projectile in a water-filled tube which is fired by the release of highly pressurized air is simulated presuming the flow field as a two dimensional one, and several design factors affecting the projectile movement are investigated.

In walking guide robot, a guide vehicle detects an obstacle distribution in the walking space using range sensors, and generates a 3D grid map to map the obstacle information and the tactile display. And the obstacle information is transferred to a blind pedestrian using tactile feedback. Based on the obstacle information a user plans a walking route and controls the guide vehicle. The algorithm for 3D detection of an obstacle distribution and the method of mapping the generated obstacle map and the tactile display device are proposed in this paper. The experiment for the 3D detection of an obstacle distribution using ultrasonic sensors is performed and estimated. The experimental system consisted of ultrasonic sensors and control system. In the experiment, the detection of fixed obstacles on the ground, the moving obstacle, and the detection of down-step are performed. The performance for the 3D detection of an obstacle distribution and space mapping is verified through the experiment.

Fixed speed wind turbine generators system that uses induction generator as a wind generator has the stability problem similar to a synchronous generator. On the other hand, doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) has the flexibility to control its real and reactive powers independently while being operated in variable speed mode. This paper focuses on a scheme where IG is stabilized by using DFIG during grid fault. In that case, DFIG will be heavily stressed and a remedy should be found out to protect the frequency converter as well as to allow the independent control of real and reactive powers without loosing the synchronism. For that purpose, a crowbar protection switch or DC-link protecting device can be considered. This paper presents a comparative study between two protective schemes, a crowbar circuit connected across the rotor of the DFIG and a protective device connected in the DC-link circuit of the frequency converter. Simulation analysis by using PSCAD/EMTDC shows that both schemes could effectively protect the DFIG, but the latter scheme is superior to the former, because of less circuitry involved.

In order to ensure that photovoltaic (PV) systems work at the maximum power point (MPP) and maximize the economic benefits, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques are normally applied to these systems. One of the most widely applied MPPT methods is the incremental conductance (INC) method. However, the choice of the step size still remains controversial. This paper presents an improved variable step size INC MPPT algorithm that uses four different step sizes. This method has the advantages of INC but with the ability to validly adjust the step size to adapt to changes of the PV's power curve. The presented algorithm also simultaneously achieves increased rapidity and accuracy when compared with the conventional fixed step size INC MPPT algorithm. In addition, the theoretical derivation and specific applications of the proposed algorithm are presented here. This method is validated by simulation and experimental results.

This paper describes a transformerless static synchronous campensator (STATCOM) system based on cascade H-bridge multilevel inverter with star configuration. It is designed not only for the dynamic and continuous compensation of the reactive power but also for the improvement of power quality of existing wind power plant. Especially, when the induction generator of wind turbine is directly connected to the grid, reactive power are occurred by exiting current. so a reactive power compensation system based on the cascade H-bridge multilevel STATCOM is proposed because the output power quality and controllability of reactive power are required by grid code in many different countries. Using various The proposed reactive power control strategy using a STATCOM is compared with the conventional scheme using fixed-size of capacitor bank through various simulation results.

This paper reviews various bulk-type cloud microphysics parameterizations (BCMPs). BCMP, predicting the moments of size distribution of hydrometeors, parameterizes the grid-resolved cloud and precipitation processes in atmospheric models. The generalized gamma distribution is mainly applied to represent the hydrometeors size distribution in BCMPs. BCMP can be divided in three different methods such as single-moment, double-moment, and triple-moment approaches depending on the number of prognostic variables. Single-moment approach only predicts the hydrometeors mixing ratio. Double-moment approach predicts not only the hydrometeors mixing ratio but also the hydrometeors number concentration. Triple-moment approach predicts the dispersion parameter of hydrometeors size distribution through the prognostic reflectivity, together with the number concentrations and mixing ratios of hydrometeors. Triple-moment approach is the most time expensive method because it has the most number of prognostic variables. However, this approach can allow more flexibility in representing hydrometeors size distribution relative to single-moment and double-moment approaches. At the early stage of the development of BMCPs, warm rain processes were only included. Ice-phase categories such as cloud ice, snow, graupel, and hail were included in BCMPs with prescribed properties for densities and sedimentation velocities of ice-phase hydrometeors since 1980s. Recently, to avoid fixed properties for ice-phase hydrometeors and ad-hoc category conversion, the new approach was proposed in which rimed ice and deposition ice mixing ratios are predicted with total ice number concentration and volume.

Despite the success of recent genome-wide association studies investigating longitudinal traits, a large fraction of overall heritability remains unexplained. This suggests that some of the missing heritability may be accounted for by gene-gene and gene-time/environment interactions. In this paper, we develop a Bayesian variable selection method for longitudinal genetic data based on mixed models. The method jointly models the main effects and interactions of all candidate genetic variants and non-genetic factors and has higher statistical power than previous approaches. To account for the within-subject dependence structure, we propose a grid-based approach that models only one fixed-dimensional covariance matrix, which is thus applicable to data where subjects have different numbers of time points. We provide the theoretical basis of our Bayesian method and then illustrate its performance using data from the 1000 Genome Project with various simulation settings. Several simulation studies show that our multivariate method increases the statistical power compared to the corresponding univariate method and can detect gene-time/ environment interactions well. We further evaluate our method with different numbers of individuals, variants, and causal variants, as well as different trait-heritability, and conclude that our method performs reasonably well with various simulation settings.

본 논문은 스마트 그리드를 위한 전력선 통신 시스템에서 데이터 전송률을 향상시키는 적응형 OFDM CP 길이 알고리즘에 대해 연구하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 기법은 수신단의 CP controller에서 수신된 데이터 프레임과 지연된 동일 데이터 프레임을 상관 처리를 취함으로써 채널 지연 정보를 계산한 후, 즉시 그 정보를 송신단에 피드백 한다. 그 다음, 송신단에서는 다음 데이터 프레임에 대한 CP 길이를 조절하게 된다. Impulsive noise 모델로서, Middleton Class A 간섭 모델을 사용하였고, 성능은 패킷 전송률과 누적 패킷 전송률, 비트 오류율 측면에서 평가되었다. 모의실험 결과로부터 패킷 수가 증가할수록 데이터 이득(감소된 비트 양)이 커지지만, branch 수($N_{br}$)가 증가할수록 데이터 이득 폭은 감소한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. $N_{br}$ 이 3, 5, 10인 경우, 적응형 CP 길이 알고리즘과 고정된 CP 길이 기법의 BER 성능은 비슷하였다. 따라서 제안한 기법은 기존의 고정 CP 길이 기법과 비교하여 BER 성능 감소 없이 데이터 전송률 증가를 달성하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

모바일 그리드에서 모바일 장치를 작업 처리에 이용하고자 하는 연구들이 많이 이루어지고는 있지만 모바일 장치는 무선 연결 및 배터리 용량에 관한 제약을 가지고 있으므로 모바일 장치를 이용한 작업 처리는 기존 그리드 환경에서의 작업 처리에 비해 신뢰성 및 효율성이 낮다. 따라서 모바일 장치가 가지는 제약 사항들을 고려한 작업 처리 방법이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 모바일 그리드 환경에서 작업 이주 기법을 통해 모바일 장치를 이용하여 작업을 수행하는 방법을 제안한다. 즉, 모바일 장치에서 작업 수행 시 문제가 되는 상황들을 미리 예측하고 실행중인 작업을 체크포인팅하여, 모바일 장치에 문제가 발생했을 경우 체크포인팅 정보를 이용하여 다른 모바일 장치에게 작업을 이주할 수 있도록 한다. 이를 위해 프록시 서버에는 모바일 장치 관리자를 두고 모바일 장치에는 상태 관리자를 두며, 두 관리자를 통해 모바일 장치의 접속, 무선 신호 세기, 배터리 용량을 확인한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안한 작업 이주 방법이 작업 수행시 효율성 및 신뢰성을 높일 수 있음을 보여준다.
