As container traffic is increasing, the introduction of mega-vessel has had a significant impact on the ports and terminals business. This movement of container shipping has led to intensely competitive environment among ports, so substantial pressures to develop new container ports or to expand existing ones, have been grown. However, it requires a huge investment, especially cost and time, to overcome environmental, geographical and financial restrictions generated from developing a port. This study addressed the Mobile Harbor, the new concept of marine logistics system as an alternative strategy. We performed an economic analysis on the introduction of the Mobile Harbor in coastal transport sector and also a sensitivity analysis to examine the effects of changing factors related on the economic evaluation. We have examined the value and application of Mobile Harbor as a preliminary study, which may contribute to further studies on the Mobile Harbor.

Modern electronic circuits are of importance for the function of communication, traffic systems and security systems. An intentional threat to these systems could be of big casualties and economic disasters. This study has examined susceptibility of electronic circuits inside the cavity by HPEM(High Power Electromagnetics). The UWB measurements were done at an anechoic chamber using a RADAN voltage source, which can generate a transient impulse of about 200 kV. The HPEM wave penetrated inside the metal case appeared to the long damped ringwave of pulse length compared with the incident wave. In addition, the resonant frequency generated inside the metal case occurred primarily in the range of 1~3 GHz. The frequency band of 1~3 GHz was influenced on the electronic circuit, which was confirmed by an external antenna and an internal absorber. The electronic circuit was influenced by HPEM infiltrated into the cavity at the 86 kV/m out of the metal cases. Also in case of an absorber the susceptibility of an electronic circuit was smallest among other cases(aperture, antenna). It is considered that absorber has a function absorbing electromagnetic wave infiltrated into the cavity and simultaneously limiting resonance by varying a boundary condition inside the cavity. Based on the results, electronic equipment systems could be applied to protection that has suited system requirements.

Holes that generated by the unpredictable and harsh nature application environment or uneven energy consumption are an inevitable phenomenon in wireless sensor networks. Most of the existing schemes for this hole problem tend to use a static detour path to bypass a hole. The static detour path may lead to uneven energy consumption of the nodes on the boundary of the hole, thus it may enlarge the region of holes. At the same time, traffic would concentrate on the nodes on the boundary of the hole and tend to be depleted quickly. To solve this problem, we introduce energy-efficient grid-based geographic routing and hole-detouring scheme by taking advantage of grid anchor point in wireless sensor network with holes. The location of hole detour anchor node is dynamically shifted in grid cell. just generating dynamic hole detour paths to reduce total energy consumption. Simulation results are provided to validate the claims.

In this paper, travel speed patterns were deducted based on historical DSRC travel speed data using Decision Tree technique to improve availability of the massive amount of historical data. These patterns were designed to reflect spatio-temporal vicissitudes in reality by generating pattern units classified by months, time of day, and highway sections. The study area was from Seoul TG to Ansung IC sections on Gyung-bu highway where high peak time of day frequently occurs in South Korea. Decision Tree technique was applied to categorize travel speed according to day of week. As a result, five different pattern groups were generated: (Mon)(Tue Wed Thu)(Fri)(Sat)(Sun). Statistical verification was conducted to prove the validity of patterns on nine different highway sections, and the accuracy of fitting was found to be 93%. To reduce travel pattern errors against individual travel speed data, inclusion of four additional variables were also tested. Among those variables, 'traffic condition on previous month' variable improved the pattern grouping accuracy by reducing 50% of speed variance in the decision tree model developed.

In this study, we used individual trip data to estimate a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) that relates flow (or production) to density (or state) in Daegu metropolitan city. The individual trip data were generated by processing data that were collected from DSRC-based (dedicated short range communication) traffic data collection system. Using the processed individual trip data, we first examined whether the assumptions for MFD are valid, and then the relation between outflow and accumulation was estimated in our study site. As a result, we found that i) the assumptions are valid to construct MFD; and ii) the reproducible and well-defined MFDs exist in the network level.

In this paper, we propose a pipe leak detection system through data collection using low-power wireless acoustic sensor modules and data analysis using deep auto-encoder. Based on the Fourier transform, we propose a low-power wireless acoustic sensor module that reduces data traffic by reducing the amount of acoustic sensor data to about 1/800, and we design the system that is robust to noise generated in the audible frequency band using only 20kHz~100kHz frequency signals. In addition, the proposed system is designed using a deep auto-encoder to accurately detect pipe leaks even with a reduced amount of data. Numerical experiments show that the proposed pipe leak detection system has a high accuracy of 99.94% and Type-II error of 0% even in the environment where high frequency band noise is mixed.

Recently, the government has improvement projects of dangerous road for the site that has very high accident rate due to bad geometric structures of the road. Although, route selecting of the road is a basic and important process, but the process of route selecting must consider the technical, safety and environment factor together. Also, the technology for the 3-dimensional terrain model can be used as an important factor in planning and designing for selecting alternative route projects. In the course of experimenting with the 3-dimensional topography generated by the combination of the digital map and drawing of route, the technology as been developed to offer the multi-dimensional access to the potential construction sites from the nearby main roads. This 3-dimensional digital elevation model has made it possible to make various terrain analysis base on GIS, which provides real-time virtual access to the designated construction sites for development planning and construction projects. Therefore, this study presents a reasonable plan for route selecting from some alternative routes through subjective evaluation and classify the methods linked basic design of road construction.

In this paper, VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) transmission performance for MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) is improved and analyzed with packet aggregation scheme which is aggregating some of short length packets to one large packet and sending to networks. VoIP simulator based on NS(Network Simulator)-2 is implemented and used to measure performance of VoIP traffic transmission. In this simulation, VoIP traffics are generated with parameters of some codes such as G.711, G.729A, GSM.AMR and iBLC. MOS(Mean Opinion Score), end-to-end network delay, packet loss rate and transmission bandwidth are measured. Performance improvements of 98% for MOS, 6.4times for end-to-end network delay, 32times for packet loss rate is shown as simulation results. On the other hand, transmission bandwidth is increased about maximum 10%. Finally, VoIP implementation guide for the performance with packet aggregation is suggested.

In korea, Freight generation models developed in korea were estimated by spatial unit method which predict freight flow by traffic zone. But it is difficult to predict freight generation using these models, because there are the difference of the totality method of sampling data on freight volume and the variability of the variables by these models on each case study, This study developed new estimation model to predict freight flow which is generated from each company using the characteristics of each company such as the freight outbound & inbound volume, the number of employee, sales, gross area, land area. This model is simpler than the that of spatial unit and can apply to the other region. The subjects of study were companies in metropolitan area and types of model were exponential regression models. The adequate explanatory variable in the models were sales. this study have a uniqueness apply micro research method to estimate freight generation not use spatial unit method but use flow unit method by each company unit.

A new fading channel estimation technique is proposed for an OFDM based modem In the ITS system. The algorithm is based on the transfer function extraction of the channel using the pilot signals and compensated the channel preceding the equalization. The newly derived algorithm is division-free arithmetic operations allows the faster circuit operation and the smaller circuit size. Proposed techniques compensate firstly the distortion which is generated at fading channels and secondly eliminate inter-symbol interference. All algorithms are suitability estimated and improved for a system implementation using digital circuits. As the results, the circuit size is reduced by 20% of the conventional design and achieved about 10% performance improvement at low SNR under 10dB in case of ITS system adapted 16-QAM mode.
