As the usage of image/video contents increase, a security problem for the payed image data or the ones requiring confidentiality is raised. This paper proposed an image encryption methodology to hide the image information. The target data of it is the result from quantization in wavelet domain. This method encrypts only part of the image data rather than the whole data of the original image, in which three types of data selection methodologies were involved. First, by using the fact that the wavelet transform decomposes the original image into frequency sub-bands, only some of the frequency sub-bands were included in encryption to make the resulting image unrecognizable. In the data to represent each pixel, only MSBs were taken for encryption. Finally, pixels to be encrypted in a specific sub-band were selected randomly by using LFSR(Linear Feedback Shift Register). Part of the key for encryption was used for the seed value of LFSR and in selecting the parallel output bits of the LFSR for random selection so that the strength of encryption algorithm increased. The experiments have been performed with the proposed methods implemented in software for about 500 images, from which the result showed that only about 1/1000 amount of data to the original image can obtain the encryption effect not to recognize the original image. Consequently, we are sure that the proposed are efficient image encryption methods to acquire the high encryption effect with small amount of encryption. Also, in this paper, several encryption scheme according to the selection of the sub-bands and the number of bits from LFSR outputs for pixel selection have been proposed, and it has been shown that there exits a relation of trade-off between the execution time and the effect of the encryption. It means that the proposed methods can be selectively used according to the application areas. Also, because the proposed methods are performed in the application layer, they are expected to be a good solution for the end-to-end security problem, which is appearing as one of the important problems in the networks with both wired and wireless sections.

일반적으로 고출력 반도체 레이저 다이오드는 발진 파장 및 광출력에 따라 다양한 분야에 응용되고 있으며, 특히 발진파장이 808 nm 대역인 고출력 레이저 다이오드의 경우 재료가공, 펌핌용 광원, 의료 분야 등 다양한 응용분야를 가진 광원 중의 하나라고 할 수 있다. 808 nm 대역의 레이저 다이오드 제작에는 현재 InGaAsP/InGaP/GaAs 및 InGaAlAs/GaAs 양자우물을 이용하여 제작되고 있으나 양자우물과 이를 둘러싸는 장벽물질간의 band-offset이 적어 효율적인 고출력 레이저 다이오드의 제작에 다소 어려움이 있기 때문에 강한 캐리어 구속 효과를 지니는 양자점 혹은 양자대쉬 구조를 사용하는 것이 고출력 레이저 다이오드를 제작할 수 있는 한 방법이다. 실험에 사용된 InP/InGaP 양자구조는 Riber사의 compact21 MBE 장치를 사용하여 성장하였으며 GaAs기판을 620-630도에서 가열하여 표면의 산화층을 제거하고 580도에서 약 100 nm 두께의 GaAs 버퍼층 및 50 nm 두께의 InGaP층을 성장하였다. 양자 구조는 MEE (migration enhanced epitaxy) 방식으로 성장되었는데, 이는 InP/InGaP 의 lattice mismatch율이 작아 양자 구조 형성이 어렵기 때문에 InP/InGaP 양자 구조 성장에 적합하다고 생각하였으며, Indium 2초, growth interuption time 10초, phosphorous 2초 그리고 growth interuption time 10초를 하나의 시퀀스로 보고, 그 시퀀스를 반복하여 양자 구조를 성장하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 P 소스는 Riber사의 KPC-250 P-valved cracker모델을 사용하였으며 InP의 성장률은 0.985${\AA}/s$이다. InP/InGaP 양자구조 성장 중에, 성장 온도, 시퀀스 수의 변화 등 다양한 조건을 변화 시켜 샘플을 성장시켰고, 양자 구조 성장을 확인하기 위하여 AFM 및 SEM을 통해 구조적 분석을 하였으며 PL 측정을 통해 광학적 분석을 진행하였다.

In wireless smart phone charging scenario, the transmitter pad is larger than the size of the receiver pad. Thus, it is important to supply a constant power to the receiver regardless of its location. In this paper, we propose a new method to regulate the receiver's power by adjusting a drain bias of class E power amplifier. The proposed LF-band wireless power transfer system is as follows: a buck converter power supply which is controlled by a pulse width modulation(PWM) IC TL494, a class E amplifier using a low cost IRF510 power MOSFET, a transmitter coil whose dimension is $16cm{\times}18cm$, a receiver coil whose dimension is $6cm{\times}8cm$, and a full bridge rectifier using Schottky diodes. A measured performance show a maximum output power of 4 W and system efficiency of 67 % if we fix the bias voltage. If we adjust the bias voltage, the received power can be maintained at a constant power of 2 W regardless of receiver pad location.

As the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly changes healthcare around the globe, the need for smart healthcare that allows for remote diagnosis is increasing. The current classification of respiratory diseases cost high and requires a face-to-face visit with a skilled medical professional, thus the pandemic significantly hinders monitoring and early diagnosis. Therefore, the ability to accurately classify and diagnose respiratory sound using deep learning-based AI models is essential to modern medicine as a remote alternative to the current stethoscope. In this study, we propose a deep learning-based respiratory sound classification model using data collected from medical experts. The sound data were preprocessed with BandPassFilter, and the relevant respiratory audio features were extracted with Log-Mel Spectrogram and Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC). Subsequently, a Parallel CNN network model was trained on these two inputs using stacking ensemble techniques combined with various machine learning classifiers to efficiently classify and detect abnormal respiratory sounds with high accuracy. The model proposed in this paper classified abnormal respiratory sounds with an accuracy of 96.9%, which is approximately 6.1% higher than the classification accuracy of baseline model.

지금까지도 유역에서의 녹조 모니터링은 현장채수를 통한 점 단위 모니터링에 크게 의존하고 있어 기후, 유속, 수온조건 등에 따라 수체에 광범위하게 발생하는 녹조를 효율적으로 모니터링하고 대응하기에는 어려운 점들이 있어왔다. 또한, 그동안 제한된 관측 데이터로 인해 현장 측정된 실측 데이터 보다는 녹조와 관련이 높은 NDVI, FGAI, SEI 등의 파생적인 지수를 산정하여 원격탐사자료와 매핑하는 방식의 분석연구 등이 선행되었다. 본 연구는 녹조의 모니터링시 정확도와 효율성을 향상을 목표로 하여, 우선은 녹조 측정장비를 활용, 7000개 이상의 녹조 관측 데이터를 확보하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 동기간의 고해상도 위성 자료와 실측자료를 매핑하기 위해 다양한Machine Learning기법을 적용함으로써 그 효과성을 검토하고자 하였다. 연구대상지는 낙동강 내성천 상류에 위치한 영주댐 유역으로서 데이터 수집단계에서는 면단위 현장(in-situ) 관측을 위해 2020년 2~9월까지 4회에 걸쳐 7291개의 녹조를 측정하고, 동일 시간 및 공간의 Sentinel-2자료 중 Band 1~12까지 총 13개(Band 8은 8과 8A로 2개)의 분광특성자료를 추출하였다. 다음으로 Machine Learning 분석기법의 적용을 위해 algae_monitoring Python library를 구축하였다. 개발된 library는 1) Training Set과 Test Set의 구분을 위한 Data 준비단계, 2) Random Forest, Gradient Boosting Regression, XGBoosting 알고리즘 중 선택하여 적용할 수 있는 모델적용단계, 3) 모델적용결과를 확인하는 Performance test단계(R², MSE, MAE, RMSE, NSE, KGE 등), 4) 모델결과의 Visualization단계, 5) 선정된 모델을 활용 위성자료를 녹조값으로 변환하는 적용단계로 구분하여 영주댐뿐만 아니라 다양한 유역에 범용적으로 적용할 수 있도록 구성하였다. 본 연구의 사례에서는 Sentinel-2위성의 12개 밴드, 기상자료(대기온도, 구름비율) 총 14개자료를 활용하여 Machine Learning기법 중 Random Forest를 적용하였을 경우에, 전반적으로 가장 높은 적합도를 나타내었으며, 적용결과 Test Set을 기준으로 NSE(Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency)가 0.96(Training Set의 경우에는 0.99) 수준의 성능을 나타내어, 광역적인 위성자료와 충분히 확보된 현장실측 자료간의 데이터 학습을 통해서 조류 모니터링 분석의 효율성이 획기적으로 증대될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Design and Implementation of Clipcast Service via Terrestrial DMB This paper outlines the system design and the implementation process of clipcast service that can send clips of video, mp3, text, images, etc. to terrestrial DMB terminals. To provide clipcast service in terrestrial DMB, a separate data channel needs to be allocated and this requires changes in the existing bandwidth allocation. Clipcast contents can be sent after midnight at around 3 to 4 AM, when terrestrial DMB viewship is low. If the video service bit rate is lowered to 352 Kbps and the TPEG service band is fully used, then 320 Kbps bit rate can be allocated to clipcast. To enable clipcast service, the terminals' DMB program must be executed, and this can be done through SMS and EPG. Clipcast service applies MOT protocol to transmit multimedia objects, and transmits twice in carousel format for stable transmission of files. Therefore, 72Mbyte data can be transmitted in one hour, which corresponds to about 20 minutes of full motion video service at 500Kbps data rate. When running the clip transmitted through terrestrial DMB data channel, information regarding the length of each clip is received through communication with the CMS(Content Management Server), then error-free files are displayed. The clips can be provided to the users as preview contents of the complete VOD contents. In order to use the complete content, the user needs to access the URL allocated for that specific content and download the content by completing a billing process. This paper suggests the design and implementation of terrestrial DMB system to provide clipcast service, which enables file download services as provided in MediaFLO, DVB-H, and the other mobile broadcasting systems. Unlike the other mobile broadcasting systems, the proposed system applies more reliable SMS method to activate the DMB terminals for highly stable clipcast service. This allows hybrid, i.e, both SMS and EPG activations of terminals for clipcast services.

Path loss prediction method, one of the most essential parts in measuring the service area in mobile telecommunication, has been developed for many years. But, wave propagation depends on many kinds of environmental factors such as frequency, distance, the heights of transmitting and receiving antenna and the terrain status(buildings in large city, hilly terrain, mountain). These are the main reasons that the propagation models developed in foreign environments can not fit into Korean propagation condition. In this paper, therefore, we performed the measurement in Korean terrain environment in pager frequency band after deviding the terrain characteristics into six types. With this measured data, we derived several curves that follows the long-term wave progagation behavior and developed the wave propagftion prediction model which calculates the field strength at any point in the service area. The proposed model estimates the field strength in two categories, LOS(line-of-sight), or non LOS. We applied this model using the digital terrain data base and compared with the measured data. The result shows that the errors were between 3~9dB, which turned out to be practical.

In speech communications in noisy environments, speech intelligibility is seriously degraded due to the masking effect of ambient noise. In this paper, a new method to improve speech intelligibility in noisy environments is proposed. Based on the perception theory that the temporal envelope plays a major role in determining intelligibility, the proposed method uses a novel operation that enhances the fluctuation of band-wise temporal envelope and also contains pitch enhancement for improving speech naturalness. In addition, a new subjective evaluation scheme employing binaural listening is proposed in order to measure more reliable performance. The subjective performance measured with the proposed scheme shows that the proposed method improves both intelligibility and naturalness in various environments, whereas a function parameter can control the performance trade-off between intelligibility and naturalness.

Recently, the subway running in metro environments has a problem in securing the safety of passengers due to the failure of announcement in emergency situations such as breakdown, train accidents and power outage in the underground tunnels. Thus, there is a need to develop an emergency broadcasting system that can provide the announcement to all passenger cars in any emergency situations on the railway route. In this paper, the applicability of various wireless communication technologies for the emergency broadcasting system through the measurement campaign was examined in Seoul metropolitan subway. A WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments) is communication technology that can use 5.9GHz dedicated frequency band without charge and it is possible to directly communicate between terminals over 200m without the help of additional relay. Especially, it confirms robust communication performance in the various metro environments, and therefore, it is considered to be suitable as a communication method of a radio-connected emergency broadcasting system for urban subway.

In recent days, climatic change cause abnormal weather all over the world and we have a great loss of life and property every year. In Korea, we suffer from landslide problem because large regions of Korea Peninsula are composed of mountain. In order to detect rapidly and to take follow-up measures of disaster, the remote sensing is being used actively as conventional field survey has many restrictions in accessibility because of more time and man power requirement. In additions interferometric SAR is one of the techniques that have our attention because it can provide many kinds of accurate surface information without restriction of atmospheric and ground conditions by using L-band. In this study, we aimed to monitor the displacement of mountain area in Kangwondo and this results will be used for detecting landslide. Also we build the web system for detecting and analyzing the landslide.
