  • The Uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction(UTD) is an effective technique to analyze the radio wave by ray-based calculation of the diffraction coefficient and the reflection coefficient. In this paper, user body shadowing based on the UTD is investigated when the user is close to the mobile device. Two cases are introduced. One is that the user is calling with the mobile attached to the ear(Head Model). The other is that the mobile is located about 15cm away from the user's chest(Chest Model) Radiation Model and Scattering Model are applied to these cases presenting which model is applicable.

  • 본 논문에서는 가상현실 환경에서 방위각, 고도, 거리 등의 위치 정보를 인지할 수 있는 3 차원 사운드를 생성하기 위한 구조적 머리전달함수(Head-Related Transfer Function, HRTF) 모델을 제안하고 이를 구현한다. 이를 위해 우선 기존에 연구된 방위각과 고도에 관한 head model 과 pinna model 을 근간으로 거리의 변화를 고려하도록 하는 HRTF 모델을 제안한다. 제안된 거리 변화에 따른 HRTF 모델은 거리 차이에 따른 음압의 변화 모델과 근거리에서 사람의 머리에 의해 생기는 shadowing 모델로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 모델로 부터 mono 사운드를 방위각, 고도, 거리를 인지할 수 있는 stereo 사운드로 변환하여 생성하는 3 차원 사운드 생성기를 구현하였고, 일반인을 대상으로 거리에 대한 청취 실험을 통하여 제안한 모델의 성능을 측정하였다. 그리고 제안된 모델을 가상현실의 실감모델인 MP3 에 구현하여 그 효과를 입증하였다.

  • Measurement of noise is not only to know the information of acoustic pressure but to assess human response to noise. To find human response to transportation noise through the laboratory study we have to measure and reproduce noise. The method of noise reproduction is largely divided into monaural and binaural techniques. But human fundamentally hears sound through both ears, referred as binaural hearing. Binaural signal is different from monaural signal because it includes more information of physical phenomena like acoustical reflection, diffraction and refraction. Especially head and pinna play an important role in perceiving change of signal origin. So, the amplitude of binaural signal is higher than that of monaural signal and spectrum of both signals is discriminated. Most of assessment and regulation of transportation noise are, however, based on monaural measurement techniques. The quantitative difference between monaural and binaural measurement is investigated in this study. Comparison on several transportation noisesshows defect of information in monaural measurements.

  • Ad-hoc networks can be used various environment, which it is difficult to construct infrastructures, such as shadowing areas, disaster areas, war area, and so on. In order to support to considerable and various wireless services, more spectrum resources are needed. However, efficient utilization of the frequency resource is difficult because of spectrum scarcity and the conventional frequency regulation. Ad-hoc networks employing cognitive radio (CR) system that guarantee high spectrum utilization provide effective way to increase the network capacity. In CR based wireless ad-hoc networks, cluster-head decides the existence of primary user using sensing information of primary user from each ad-hoc device. However, it is still defective research to decide cluster head among the a lot of ad-hoc devices. So, in this paper, we show the decision method of cluster head in CR based wireless and detection probabilities of primary user based on decision method of cluster head.

  • Ad-hoc networks can be used various environment, which it is difficult to construct infrastructures, such as shadowing areas, disaster areas, war area, and so on. In order to support to considerable and various wireless services, more spectrum resources are needed. However, efficient utilization of the frequency resource is difficult because of spectrum scarcity and the conventional frequency regulation. Ad-hoc networks employing cognitive radio(CR) system that guarantee high spectrum utilization provide effective way to increase the network capacity. In conventional CR based ad-hoc network, it uses constant threshold value to detect primary user signal, so the results become not reliable. In this paper, to solve this problem, we apply adaptive threshold value to the CR based ad-hoc network, and adaptive threshold is immediately changed by SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio). From the simulation results, we confirmed that proposed algorithm has the greatly better detection probabilities than conventional CR based ad-hoc network.
