T-DMB is using MPEG-4 BIFS standard format for broadcasting interactive data service. BIFS enables us to represent contents as a scene which consists of various objects such as AV, image, graphic, and text. It also enables us to control objects by using user interaction. BIFS was designed to be adapted to multimedia systems with various input devices. Today, however, we are in lack of considering about mobile device with restricted input unit. The problem is that a consistent user control of interactive data contents is not possible due to the limitations of input units in T-DMB terminals. To solve the problem, we defined KeyNavigator node that provides a means to select or navigate objects (like menu) in BIFS contents by arrow keys and enter key of mobile terminal. By using KeyNavigater node, not only BIFS contents providers can make BIFS contents as they want, but also users can get a way to control BIFS contents consistently and easily.

This study proposes a non-contact input method based on face recognition and Pyautogui mouse control as a system that can help users who have difficulty using input devices such as conventional mouse due to physical discomfort. This study includes features that help web surfing more conveniently, especially screen zoom, scroll function, and also solves the problem of eye fatigue, which has been suggested as a limitation in existing non-contact input systems. In addition, various set values can be adjusted in consideration of individual physical differences and Internet usage habits. Furthermore, no high-performance CPU or GPU environment is required, and no separate tracker devices or high-performance cameras are required. Through these studies, we intended to contribute to the realization of barrier-free access by increasing the web accessibility of the disabled and the elderly who find it difficult to use web content.

This paper introduces the design and implementation of 40-㎓-band low noise amplifier (LNA) with ultra low gain flatness for wide-band wireless multimedia and satellite communication systems. The 40-㎓-band 4-stage LNA MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) demonstrates a small signal gain of more than 20 ㏈, an input return loss of 10.3 ㏈, and an output return loss of 16.3 ㏈ for 37$\square$42 ㎓. The gain flatness of the 40-㎓-band 4-stage LNA MMIC was 0.1 ㏈ for 37$\square$42 ㎓. The noise figure of the 40 ㎓-band LNA was simulated to be less than 2.7 dB for 37~42 ㎓. The chip size of the 4-stage LNA MMIC was 3.7${\times}$1.7 $\textrm{mm}^2$.

Recently, many of hospitals have hurried to computerize the resulting data from medical devices, in order to introduce Electric Medical Record(EMR). In terms of the linkage between medical devices and hospital information systems, however, many difficulties have arisen due to some reasons such as the variety of prescription input, the format difference of the resulting data sheet, and the interface difference between medical devices from different companies. To solve these problems, many researches on standardization of the resulting data of medical devices have been performed. In this study, the linkage between hospital information systems and resulting datum in Electrocardiogram(ECG) generating biosignal waveform was tested by applying Medical waveform Format Encoding Rules(MFER) Version 1.02, which has more advantages than existing global standard. MFER viewer, in addition, was made to display the resulting data on a screen. The MFER viewer was tested and compared to the existing Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Viewer. The results showed that this method is more effective in the interface the data storage and application, because of simplicity and easiness in data applications. And the results show that the MFER is convenience and effective for physician. It is considered that the role of MFER as the interface in biosignal waveform including Electrocardiogram medical devices would expand in the near future.

Low power RF devices, such as RFID and Zigbee, are important for ubiquitous sensing. These devices, however, are powered by portable energy sources, such as batteries, which limits their use. To mitigate this problem, this study developed RF energy harvesting with W-CDMA for a low power RF device. Diodes are required with a low turn on voltage because the diode threshold is larger than the received peak voltage of the rectifying antenna (rectenna). Therefore, a Schottky diode HSMS-286 was used. A prototype of RF energy harvesting device showed the maximum gain of 5.8dBi for the W-CDMA signal. The 16 patch antennas were manufactured with a 10 dielectric constant PTFT board. In low power RF devices, the transmitter requires a step-up voltage of 2.5~5V with up to 35 mA. To meet this requirement, the Texas Instruments TPS61220 was used as a low input voltage step-up converter. From the evaluated result, the achievable incident power of the rectenna at 926mV to operate Zigbee can be obtained within a distance of 12m.

Objectives: This study aims to examine factors affecting depression of Older Adults by using the data of the elderly survey conducted by the Korea Institute of Health and Social Affairs in 2020. Methods: The total sample was 4,777 people aged over 65 years old. In this study, sociodemographic variables, information devices'use behavior and discomfort variables were input to examine the effect on depression. The data was analyzed with t²-test, ANOVA and hierarchical regression by SPSS statistic program. Results: First, use behavior and discomfort of information devices and depression were significantly different by sociodemographic variables(sex, age, level of education, marital status). Secondly, regression analysis showed that age and level of education affected an influence on depression in Model 1, which analyzed only sociodemographic variables. However, Model 2, which analyzed devices' use behavior and discomfort variables at the same time, showed that they affected depression. Conclusions: It was suggested to develop customized health education and mental health promotion were needed to reduce depression in the elderly.

The paper presents a novel approach of constructing the state matrix of the multi-machine power system for SSR (subsynchronous resonance) analysis using the linearized equations of individual devices including electrical transmission network dynamics. The machine models in the local d-q reference frame are integrated with the network models in the common R-I reference frame by simply transforming their output equations into the R-I frame where the transformed output is used as the input to the network dynamics or vice versa. The salient feature of the formulation is that it allows for modular construction of various component models without rearranging the overall state space formulation. This universal SSR small signal stability program provides a flexible tool for systematic analyses of SSR small-signal stability impacts of both conventional devices such as generation systems and novel devices such as power electronic apparatus and their controllers. The paper also presents its application results to IEEE benchmark models.

In this study, a high-speed servo valve with no outer leakage is developed, which is used to drive flexible hydraulic actuators (FHA) for extreme environments. In the valve, multilayered PZT devices are used to drive a spool directly and quickly. A bellows is also used to prevent outer leak from the clearance between the spool and the sleeve. Employing a disturbance observer, the lack of the system damping of the valve is improved by feeding back the estimated velocity of the spool, as well as the estimated disturbance is fed back to eliminate effectively the hysteresis between input voltage and output displacement of the PZT devices.

In this paper, we propose measurement-devices for the assessment of input vector consisted of face's movement as feature points through image processing based on AAM technique. The proposed method has been applied to classify students by 2-class(ADHD positive, ADHD negative). Experimental results show that the proposed method was successful in acquiring more objective and quantitative data than conventional methods, it takes advantage of examining without temporal and spatial constraints.
