본 논문은 차량 내부에서 무선 에너지 전송 기술을 지원하기 위해 분산 안테나 시스템의 사용을 제안한다. 차량 내 무선 에너지 전송 시스템은 에너지 수신 단말기의 이동이 제한적이고, 채널 환경이 정적이며, 인체가 송신기와 가까운 특징을 갖는다. 이러한 상황에서 송신기의 배치는 인체에서의 수신 에너지와 에너지 수신 단말기에서의 수신 에너지의 양에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이에 본 논문은 기존 무선 통신 시스템에서 사용되는 중앙 집중형 안테나 시스템과 분산 안테나 시스템을 적용하였을 때의 차량 내 무선 에너지 전송 성능을 모의실험을 통해 비교하고, 분산 안테나 시스템이 더 좋은 성능을 가짐을 보인다.

환자의 진단에 유용하게 사용되고 있는 X선 장치는 X선을 인체에 조사할 때 나타나는 피폭이 큰 단점으로 지적되고 있으며 ICRP에서는 인체의 방사선 노출 허용량을 제한하고 있다. 이러한 피폭을 줄이기 위해 많은 연구 개발이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 X선의 발생 효율 증가 및 정밀한 출력 제어가 가능한 인버터 방식의 고전압 발생장치를 제작하였다. 또한 X선관에 인가되는 직류 고전압에 발생 가능한 리플을 최소화하기 위해 전파 정류방식을 적용하였으며, 이를 환자의 진단에 사용하기 위해 조사재현성 및 선질을 평가하였다.

구글사에서 출시된 ML Kit API의 Pose detection를 사용한 영상기반 낙상 알고리즘을 제안한다. Pose detection 알고리듬을 사용하여 추출된 신체의 33개의 3차원 특징점을 활용하여 낙상을 인식한다. 추출된 특징점을 분석하여 낙상을 인식하는 알고리듬은 k-NN을 사용한다. 영상의 크기와 영상내의 인체의 크기에 영향을 받지 않도록 정규화과정을 거치며 특징점들의 상대적인 움직임을 분석하여 낙상을 인식한다. 본 실험을 위해 사용한 13개의 테스트 영상중 13개의 영상에서 낙상을 인식하여 100%의 성공률을 보였다.

Stance is defined as any state in which the total mass of the body is supported by the feet. In order to maintain stance, the sum of gravito-inertial forces acting on the body must be registered by equal and opposite forces at the region of contact between the organism and the support surface. Balance is controlled by applying forces to the surface of support so as to maintain the body's center of mass vertically above the feet. for a muIti-segment organism, there can be a variety of ways in which balance can be controlled, since movements of different body segments can have similar effects on the control of balance. In general, the organism tends to have a body configuration that is aligned with gravito-inertial force when there are no external forces acting on it. If any segments of the body are not aligned with gravito-inertial force vector, a torque on that segment would tend to move the body's center of mass. The maintenance of postural stability is accomplished in humans by a complex neural control system. This requires organizing integrating and acting upon visual, vestibular, and somatosensory input, providing orientation information to the postural control system. The information necessary to control and coordinate movement is provided by the visual sense of eye position with respect to the surrounding surface layout, the vestibular sense of head orientation in the gravito-inertial space, and the somatic sense of body segment position relative to one another and to the support surface. In this study, perception and action capability was examined from various points of view. The underlying assumption of the study was that the change of postural configuration could be effected by organism, environment and task goal.

This study attempted to measure self-disclosure changes of nurses a result of human relations training. The study population consisted of 49 nurses in Seoul. The instrument used in this study was the Self-disclosure questionnaire developed by Jourard in 1958, was designed to measure verbalized aspects of self-disclosure defined as a voluntary act of revealing personal data about oneself including beliefs, values, feelings and perceptions to another person. The SDG instrument is devided into six areas: attitude, taste and interest, personality, money, work and body. The main findings were summarized as follows: 1. After training, the subjects disclosed more than before. 2. Subjects tended to very the amount of self-disclosure with respect to the category of information to which an item about the self belonged. Two clusters of aspects emerged, a high disclosure cluster including Attitude, Tastes and Interests, Personality and Work, and a low disclosure cluster comprised of Money and Body. 3. Before and after training, there was significant difference in the self-disclosure to the peer nurses. Subjects showed the highest self-disclosure to friend, with lesser amounts to patient. 4. Charge and head nurses showed the highest differences in self-disclosure resulting from human relations training.

This manuscript presents a real-time solution for 3D human body reconstruction with multiple RGB-D cameras. The proposed system uses four consumer RGB/Depth (RGB-D) cameras, each located at approximately $90^{\circ}$ from the next camera around a freely moving human body. A single mesh is constructed from the captured point clouds by iteratively removing the estimated overlapping regions from the boundary. A cell-based mesh construction algorithm is developed, recovering the 3D shape from various conditions, considering the direction of the camera and the mesh boundary. The proposed algorithm also allows problematic holes and/or occluded regions to be recovered from another view. Finally, calibrated RGB data is merged with the constructed mesh so it can be viewed from an arbitrary direction. The proposed algorithm is implemented with general-purpose computation on graphics processing unit (GPGPU) for real-time processing owing to its suitability for parallel processing.

The purpose of this study was to identify the body proportions of girls in middle and high school who have been a major sales target of clothing manufacturers and thus to provide the basic information on the proportion of human body, which is essential for manufacturer to produce clothing and for individual consumers to select right apparels to wear and purchase. The subjects were 133 girls in middle school and 141 girls in high school. As measuring instruments, the Martin's anthropometer, tapelines, and belts for marking waistline were used. In order to analyze the data, t-test and factor analysis were used. The measurement of vertical distance between vertex and measuring points, showed a significant difference between the high school group and middle school group in every item. In the comparison of eight head proportion between the two groups, middle school students had 7.2 head proportion while girls in high school had 6.9 head proportion in detail. The factor analysis of major divided body parts of the two groups indicated that waist-hip and hip-crotch, constituting lower trunk together, vertex-apex nasi, and apex nasi-back neck point, constituting head together, back neck point-spina scapula and spina scapula-waist, constituting posterior of upper body together, and mentum-bust point and bust point-waist, constituting anterior of upper body together, were in inverse proportion.

Recently, the use of wireless body area networks (WBAN) has been increasing rapidly in medical healthcare applications. WBANs consist of smart nodes that can be used to sense and transmit vital data such as heart rate, temperature and ECG from a human body to a medical centre. WBANs depend on limited resources such as energy and bandwidth. In order to utilise these resources efficiently, a very well organized medium access control (MAC) protocol must be considered. In this paper, a new, adaptive and energy-efficient MAC protocol, entitled isMAC, is proposed for WBANs. The proposed MAC is based on multi-channel communication and aims to prolong the network lifetime by effectively employing (i) a collision prevention mechanism, (ii) a coordinator node (WCN) selection algorithm and (iii) a transmission power adjustment approach. The isMAC protocol has been developed and modelled, by using OPNET Modeler simulation software. It is based on a networking scenario that requires especially high data rates such as ECG, for performance evaluation purposes. Packet delay, network throughput and energy consumption have been chosen as performance metrics. The comparison between the simulation results of isMAC and classical IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) protocol shows that isMAC significantly outperforms IEEE 802.15.4 in terms of packet delay, throughput and energy consumption.

In this paper, we propose and simulate an efficient interference cancellation scheme with an optimal ordering successive interference cancellation (SIC) algorithm for ultra wideband (UWB)/multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems in a wireless body area network (WBAN). When there are several wireless communication devices on a human body, multiple access interference (MAI) usually occurs. To mitigate the effect of MAI and achieve additional diversity gain, we utilize SIC with an optimal ordering algorithm. A zero correlation duration (ZCD) code with robust MAI capability is employed as a spread code for UWB systems in a multi-device WBAN environment. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated in terms of the bit error rate (BER). Simulation results confirm that the BER performance can be improved significantly if the proposed interference cancellation scheme and the ZCD code are jointly employed.
