This paper proposed an Inter-Carrier-Interference (ICI) Canceling Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) receiver for 5G mobile system to support 500 km/h linear motor high speed terrestrial transportation service. A receiver in such high-speed train sees the transmission channel which is composed of multiple Doppler-shifted propagation paths. Then, a loss of sub-carrier orthogonality due to Doppler-spread channels causes ICI. The ICI Canceler is realized by the following three steps. First, using the Demodulation Reference Symbol (DMRS) pilot signals, it analyzes three parameters such as attenuation, relative delay, and Doppler-shift of each multi-path component. Secondly, based on the sets of three parameters, Channel Transfer Function (CTF) of sender sub-carrier number 𝒏 to receiver sub-carrier number 𝒍 is generated. In case of 𝒏≠𝒍, the CTF corresponds to ICI factor. Thirdly, since ICI factor is obtained, by applying ICI reverse operation by Multi-Tap Equalizer, ICI canceling can be realized. ICI canceling performance has been simulated assuming severe channel condition such as 500 km/h, 2 path reverse Doppler Shift for QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM and 256QAM modulations. In particular, for modulation schemes below 16QAM, we confirmed that the difference between BER in a 2 path reverse Doppler shift environment and stationary environment at a moving speed of 500 km/h was very small when the number of taps in the multi-tap equalizer was set to 31 taps or more. We also confirmed that the BER performance in high-speed mobile communications for multi-level modulation schemes above 64QAM is dramatically improved by the use of a multi-tap equalizer.

이종 네트워크 환경에서 이종셀 간 간섭 제어를 위해 Almost Blank Subframes (ABS)이 제안 되었다. ABS에서는 서브프레임에 대한 자원 할당을 하지 않음으로써 동일 채널 간섭을 줄일 수 있다. 기존 연구에서는 ABS 기술의 성능 평가를 위한 수학적 모델링이 제안되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 ABS 기술에 대한 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. 분석을 위한 가정에서 OFDMA 기반의 다중 반송파 (multi carrier) 시스템을 가정하였고, large-scale 페이딩을 가정하였다. 성능 평가로써 effective SINR에 대한 누적분포함수를 나타낸다. 시뮬레이션과 분석에 대한 결과 비교를 통해 수학적 모델에 대한 정확도를 보인다.

Zr alloy specimens were coated with Cr-Al alloy to enhance their resistance to oxidation. The coated samples were oxidized at 1200 ℃ in a steam environment for 300 s and showed extremely low oxidation when compared to uncoated Zr alloy specimens. The microstructure and elemental distribution of the oxides formed on the surface of Cr-Al alloys have been investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A very thin protective layer of Cr₂O₃ formed on the outer surface of the Cr-Al alloy, and a thin Al₂O₃ layer was also observed in the Cr-Al alloy matrix, near the surface. Our results suggest that these two oxide layers near the surface confers excellent oxidation resistance to the Cr-Al alloy. Even after exposure to a high temperature of 1200 ℃, inter-diffusion between the Cr-Al alloy and the Zr alloy occurred in very few regions near the interface. Analysis of the inter-diffusion layer by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) measurement confirmed its identity as Cr₂Zr.

Measuring occurrence times of random events, aimed to determine the statistical properties of the governing stochastic process, is a basic topic in science and engineering, and has been the subject of numerous mathematical modeling approaches. Often, true statistical properties deviate from measured properties due to the so called dead time phenomenon, where for a certain time period following detection, the detection system is not operational. Understanding the dead time effect is especially important in radiation measurements, often characterized by high count rates and a non-reducible detector dead time (originating in the physics of particle detection). The effect of dead time can be interpreted as a suitable rarefied sequence of the original time sequence. This paper provides a limit theorem for a high rate (diffusion-scale) counter with extendable (Type II) dead time, where the underlying counting process is a renewal process with finite second moment for the inter-event distribution. The results are very general, in the sense that they refer to a general inter arrival time and a random dead time with general distribution. Following the theoretical results, we will demonstrate the applicability of the results in three applications: serially connected components, multiplicity counting and measurements of aerosol spatial distribution.

Since scene segmentation is becoming a hot topic in the field of autonomous driving and medical image analysis, researchers are actively trying new methods to improve segmentation accuracy. At present, the main issues in image semantic segmentation are intra-class inconsistency and inter-class indistinction. From our analysis, the lack of global information as well as macroscopic discrimination on the object are the two main reasons. In this paper, we propose a Densely connected residual Attention network (DA-Res2Net) which consists of a dense residual network and channel attention guidance module to deal with these problems and improve the accuracy of image segmentation. Specifically, in order to make the extracted features equipped with stronger multi-scale characteristics, a densely connected residual network is proposed as a feature extractor. Furthermore, to improve the representativeness of each channel feature, we design a Channel-Attention-Guide module to make the model focusing on the high-level semantic features and low-level location features simultaneously. Experimental results show that the method achieves significant performance on various datasets. Compared to other state-of-the-art methods, the proposed method reaches the mean IOU accuracy of 83.2% on PASCAL VOC 2012 and 79.7% on Cityscapes dataset, respectively.

Although the majority of elderly are residentially stable, many western studies have recently reported that there has been a gradual growth of retirement migration. However, little is known about that in Korea. Therefore, this study intended to examine the trend and nature of elderly migration. For this purpose, inter- and intra-province migration among the aged 65 and over were analyzed, using the migration data of the Korea National Statistical Office, compiled from the 2000 and 2006 resident registration records. The results were as follows. First, there was an increase of elderly migrants to 531 thousand persons in 2006 from 383 thousand persons in 2000. Secondly, the migration rate of elderly has steadily grown with a 11.7% in 2000 and 12% in 2006. Also, the move of female among old population was active but this trend tended to decrease in 2006. Thirdly, the number of provinces which showed a positive net inter-province migration of old population increased from 7 provinces in 2000 to 8 provinces in 2006. Fourthly, we found that the destinations of elderly migrants were mostly neighboring province except the Chungnam, Jeonbuk, and Jeju. These results suggested that elderly migration would be expected to increase gradually and be important in the future of Korea.

기후변동에 따른 식생반응 및 그에 따른 물수지 동역학의 변화를 살펴볼 목적으로 본 연구에서는 식생의 물 이용가능성과 식생 생산량의 지역별 연별 변동성을 분석하였다. 유역의 식생 물이용의 대리변수로서 습윤량에 대한 기화량의 비로 표현되는 Horton 지수의 계산을 통하여 유역에서의 수문 분할과 그에 따른 식생의 물 이용 가능성에 대한 정량화를 시도하였다. 연별 Horton 지수의 추정결과 기후의 변동성과 비교하여 볼 때 상대적으로 일정한 값을 유지하고 있는 것을 살펴볼 수 있다. 이와 더불어 Horton 지수와 식생의 강우이용효율을 비교한 결과, 물 이용가능성에 따른 식생의 물 이용에 대한 흥미로운 패턴이 있음을 살펴볼 수 있었다. 물이 식생 성장에 제한요소가 될 경우 식생의 강우이용효율은 공통적인 최대값으로 수렴한다는 선행연구들의 결과를 본 연구를 통해서도 확인할 수 있다.

In this work, we propose a new mechanistic model for the treatment of helium behaviour at the grain boundaries in oxide nuclear fuel. The model provides a rate-theory description of helium inter-granular behaviour, considering diffusion towards grain edges, trapping in lenticular bubbles, and thermal resolution. It is paired with a rate-theory description of helium intra-granular behaviour that includes diffusion towards grain boundaries, trapping in spherical bubbles, and thermal re-solution. The proposed model has been implemented in the meso-scale software designed for coupling with fuel performance codes SCIANTIX. It is validated against thermal desorption experiments performed on doped UO₂ samples annealed at different temperatures. The overall agreement of the new model with the experimental data is improved, both in terms of integral helium release and of the helium release rate. By considering the contribution of helium at the grain boundaries in the new model, it is possible to represent the kinetics of helium release rate at high temperature. Given the uncertainties involved in the initial conditions for the inter-granular part of the model and the uncertainties associated to some model parameters for which limited lower-length scale information is available, such as the helium diffusivity at the grain boundaries, the results are complemented by a dedicated uncertainty analysis. This assessment demonstrates that the initial conditions, chosen in a reasonable range, have limited impact on the results, and confirms that it is possible to achieve satisfying results using sound values for the uncertain physical parameters.

정치망 어장의 어도 연구와 관련된 정치망 어장부근의 해저지형과 조류의 관측을 행하였다. 거제도 동부의 2 해역, 도장포와 능포어장과 남해도 동부의 2 해역, 양화금과 마안도 부근에서 수심관측과 25시간 정점 조류 관측 및 레이더 코오너리플렉터에 의한 표층의 표류실험을 병행하였다. 해저지형의 관측결과 거제도 동부 해역에서는 만의 남쪽에 경사가 심한 골이 형성되어 있고, 그 부근에 어구가 부설되어 있었다. 조류의 관측결과 거제도 동부해역에서는 좌선회의 경향을 보였고 남해도 양화금에서는 우선회의 경향이 뚜렷하였으며 마안도 부근에서는 일정하지 않았다. 항류성분과 조류의 회전 및 지형 등이 조화되어 외해에서 만에 접근한 어군이 해저 골 부근으로 접근하면서 점차 농밀군을 이루게 되어 정치망 어구에 접근하는 것으로 생각된다.
