This paper proposes a filter-based algorithm to adaptively adjust the contention window in IEEE 802.11 DCF. The proposed mechanism is focused on the general and realistic environments that have various conditions regarding to noise, media types and network load. For this flexible adaptation, Filter-based DCF(FDCF) takes a more realistic policy such as median filter concept in the image processing technologies. We can handle these various environments by adjusting the contention window size according to the result of filtering based on history-buffer. We can ignore temporarily and randomly occurred transmission failures due to noise errors and collisions in noisy environments. In addition, by changing the reference number and history-buffer size, FDCF can be extended as a general solution including previous proposed mechanism. We have confirmed that the proposed mechanism can achieve the better performance than those of previous researches in aspects of the throughput and the delay in the realistic environments.

The most promising application of the biofuel cells is implantable devices, so the biofuel cells should have an appropriate shape for the vascular vessel. We demonstrated the biofuel cell roll for using in tubes. MWNTs were aggregated by vacuum filtration on a nitrocellulose membrane filter, which was biocompatible and flexible. The MWNT aggregated nitrocellulose membrane used the electrodes of the biofuel cells because it was conductive as well as nanostuructured. Then, the membrane was rolled into the roll shape. The maximum power density of the biofuel cell roll was $7.9{\mu}W/cm^2$ at 153mV and 50 mM glucose. Also, the power density is expected to increase in its practical application if there is flow in the tube, which makes the transportation of fuel easy. The biofuel cell roll contacts with the wall of the tube, so flow in the tube does not disturb. Also, the biofuel cell roll has multi-layers offering more electroactive area.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate ground-based experiment for the attitude control of spacecraft. A two-axis rotational simulator with a flexible ann is constructed with on-off air thrusters as actuators. The simulator is also equipped with payload pointing capability by simultaneous thruster and DC servo motor actuation. The azimuth angle is controlled by on-off thruster command while the payload elevation angle is controlled by a servo-motor. A thruster modulation technique PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) employing a time-optimal switching function plus integral error control is proposed. An optical camera is used for the purpose of pointing as well as on-board rate sensor calibration. Attitude control performance based upon the new closed-loop control law is demonstrated by ground experiment. The modified switching function turns out to be effective with improved pointing performance under external disturbance. The rate sensor calibration technique by Kalman Filter algorithm led to reduction of attitude error caused by the bias in the rate sensor output.

In this study, we introduce filters that used for the prior adjustment of the holiday effect in seasonal adjustment. And we propose new filters having more various and flexible patterns than conventional ones. Under the practical assumption that patterns of effects before and after the holiday are different, we compare adjustment effect of the proposed filters and the existing ones. In comparison study, we estimate the effect from all possible combinations of shapes of filter by RegARIMA. And then, to adjust holiday effect, we apply the estimated results to time series data of industrial production and shipment index data in South Korea.

This work evaluated the extractability of tobacco stem biomass for the papermaking type Reconstituted Tobacco Sheet(RTS). The effects of the soaking conditions on the hydration of stem biomass and the effects of the hydrated state on the mechanical extraction were investigated. In order to simulate the mechanical expression process of a papermaking type RTS mill, for example, the screw press process, the novel mechanical pressing analyzer was developed for this study. The hydration of stem biomass by soaking process was greatly affected by the soaking time and the soaking temperature. The longer soaking time and the higher soaking temperature resulted in the higher hydrated stem biomass. Since the higher hydrated stem had more combined water in the inner structure and resulted in the more flexible structure, the higher hydrated stem leaded to the more compressed filter cake and the higher water contents in the filter cake after the mechanical pressing. The pilot pulping experiments showed the difference in hydration and extractability between burley and bright tobacco stem. The bulkier structure of the burley stem resulted in the faster hydration by pilot pulping and leaded to the larger reduction in water soluble components. And the hydration process showed the major influence on the separation efficiency of water soluble components.

This paper investigates the design of disturbance observer for rotational vibration suppression in disk drive systems. The design aims to provide an optimal controller which satisfies both vibration performance and robust stability. It consists of an inversion method, a special filter, and optimization scheme. Firstly a new inversion method is introduced, which provides more accurate inversion compared to conventional zero phase error method. The inversion is to deal with unstable zeros in the plant model. Secondly a special filter for disturbance selection is given, which features adjustable gain and band pass characteristics so that it enables flexible shaping of the loop considering the trade-off between performance and stability margins. And finally the parameters of disturbance observer are optimized in conjunction with external disturbance model. Simulation and experiment on commercial hard disk drives confirm that the design is very effective to such disturbance which is hard to be handled by conventional approach.

This paper analyzes the problems that occurred in the magnification process for a fine input image and investigates a method to improve the problems. This paper applies a curve interpolation algorithm in CAD/CAM for the same test images with the existing image algorithm in order to improve the problems. As a result. the nearest neighbor interpolation. which is the most frequently applied algorithm for the existing image interpolation algorithm. shows that the identification of a magnified image is not possible. Therefore. this study examines an interpolation of gray-level data by applying a low-pass spatial filter and verifies that a bilinear interpolation presents a lack of property that accentuates the boundary of the image where the image is largely changed. The periodic B-spline interpolation algorithm used for curve interpolation in CAD/CAM can remove the blurring but shows a problem of obscuration, and the Ferguson's curve interpolation algorithm shows a more sharpened image than that of the periodic B-spline algorithm.

Three kinds of electrolyte membranes were prepared by impregnating filter papers with one of the electrolyte solutions fur primary manganese battery ($NH_4Cl$, $ZnCl_2$, and alkaline types) and hygroscopic agent ($CaBr_2$ or $CaCl_2$), respectively. The thickness of them was $250{\sim}300{\mu}m$, and they were very flexible. The electrochemical characteristics greatly depended on the hygroscopic agent to supply water to the cell. The electrolyte membrane containing $CaCl_2$ showed the highest ionic conductivity and the largest discharge capacity.

Personal health records (PHRs) is an electronic medical system that enables patients to acquire, manage and share their health data. Nevertheless, data confidentiality and user privacy in PHRs have not been handled completely. As a fine-grained access control over health data, ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) has an ability to guarantee data confidentiality. However, existing CP-ABE solutions for PHRs are facing some new challenges in access control, such as policy privacy disclosure and dynamic policy update. In terms of addressing these problems, we propose a privacy protection and dynamic share system (PPADS) based on CP-ABE for PHRs, which supports full policy hiding and flexible access control. In the system, attribute information of access policy is fully hidden by attribute bloom filter. Moreover, data user produces a transforming key for the PHRs Cloud to change access policy dynamically. Furthermore, relied on security analysis, PPADS is selectively secure under standard model. Finally, the performance comparisons and simulation results demonstrate that PPADS is suitable for PHRs.
