This study identified the characteristics of video contents related to waste cycle in Korean social media. The contents of broadcasting companies were the most popular among production entities, and mainly current affairs contents and educational contents were popular. Among the solutions to recycle wastes, 'Improvement of systems and policies' was predominantly covered in the video as solutions to the waste circulation problems. 'Broadcasting companies', 'local governments', 'non-profit private organizations' and 'central administrative agencies' actively used the social media to deliver solutions and engage consumers. However, very few contents were produced by companies that are socially responsible for waste. The results of this study show the importance of communication-oriented, public-friendly content development in the process of video production related to waste cycle. These are expected to be useful guidelines for decision-making supporting the development and improvement of related systems and policies.

무선에 의한 서비스는 유선에서 제공할 수 없는 단말기의 이동성이라는 커다란 장점을 지니기 있기 때문에, 댁내에서의 광화이버 배선으로 여러 가지 문제점을 발생시키고 경우에 따라서는 해결이 불가능한 경우도 무선에 의한 광대역 서비스의 제공이 가능하다. 최근까지는 2.5GHz 대역에서 아날로그 AM방식인 MMDS(Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service)로 무선 CATV같은 서비스가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 MMDS 방식의 경우 주파수 배정 문제로 인하여 발전이 한정적으로 이루어져 왔고, 양방향 디지털 및 다채널기술의 적용을 위한 주파수 대역의 확보가 어렵기 때문에 미래의 기술로 적용하기에는 다소 무리가 있는 것으로 분석되고 있다. 따라서 이에 대한 해결책으로 새로운 주파수 자원의 개발과 디지털 다채널 기술을 적용한 초고속 광대역 무선 전송기술의 개발이라는 측면에서 새로이 개발된 것이 최근 연구의 중심을 이루고 있는 LMCS(Local Multi-point Communication System)방식이다. LMCS 시스템은 25GHz∼29GHz 정도의 주파수를 사용하며 디지털화하여 양방향 CATV로 전환함으로써 양방향 멀티미디어 서비스가 가능하고, 향후 정보고속도로와도 연계할 수 있다는 점에서 최근 관심이 집중되고 있으며 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있는 상황이다. 이러한 추세에 따라 국내에서도 LMCS방식의 무선 CATV 서버용 주파수가 배정될 예정이다. LMCS기술은 유선망보다 저렴한 설치비용, 신속한 망구축 등의 장점을 바탕으로 양방향 초미터파 대역으로 고유한 전파전파 특성을 가지고 있으며, 주파수 배정에 있어서도 광대역으로 예상되기 때문에 LMDS에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

As globalization of communication is going on and as the media have become increasingly central to the world economy, media policy matters have become the province of world economic organizations like the IMF and the WTO. The WTO service negotiation is focused primarily on the discriminatory and quantitative barriers associated with the trade of audiovisual services. Domestic measures such as subsidization, content regulation including quotas, and licensing requirements and restrictions on foreign ownership and control are at issues here. These measures have been successfully implemented by countries wishing to withstand competition from the American audiovisual industry. The debate about trade in audiovisual services is permeated by the unstated assumption that these programs are pure commodities whose production, distribution, exhibition and in turn, values are solely determined by the market forces. It is therefore presumed that liberalization of trade in audiovisual services will benefit all, serving cultural pluralism and diversity as well as economic efficiency. However, this assumption is not shared by developing countries, the recipients of U.S. television material. They argue audiovisual sector requires a social and cultural approach, since it plays a key role in the preservation of people's identity and social bonds. They claim that it is the each state's right to define its media policy and to implement it through the means it considers fit. These clashing views over the nature of the audiovisual material and the ways in which protect cultural pluralism and diversity do not confine to be the realm of theoretical debate. Each state's interest and motivation to protect its local industry and to have a competitive advantage in the international market is working in this battle. Consolidation with the countries like Australia, Canada, and EU nations, in favour of cultural exemption, seems to be the best policy for us. However, we are not entirely free from the WTO pressures, considering relation to the U. S. This study analyzes Korean Broadcasting Law compared with those of other OECD countries and tries to propose some strategical guidelines facing WTO service negotiation in the area of broadcasting.

A joint design scheme is proposed to optimize the up/down scaler and the motion vector estimation module in the transcoder system. The proposed scheme first optimizes the resolution scaler for a fixed motion vector, and then a new motion vector is estimated for the fixed scaler. These two steps are iteratively repeated until they reach a local optimum solution. In the optimization of the scaler, we derive an adaptive version of a cubic convolution interpolator to enlarge or reduce digital images by arbitrary scaling factors. The adaptation is performed at each macroblock of an image. In order to estimate the optimal motion vector, a temporary motion vector is composed from the given motion vectors. Then the motion vector is refined over a narrow search range. It is well-known that this refinement scheme provides the comparable performance compared to the full search method. Simulation results show that a jointly optimized system based on the proposed algorithms outperforms the conventional systems. We can also see that the algorithms exhibit significant improvement in the minimization of information loss compared with other techniques.

Recently, with the development of Internet media, many document materials have become exponentially increasing on the web. These materials are described, and the information on what is the most by this text are classified according. However, the text has meant that many have room for ambiguous interpretation must look at it from various angles in order to interpret them correctly. In conventional classification methods it was simply a classification only have the appearance of the text. In this paper, we analyze it in terms genetic algorithm and local preserving based techniques and implemented a clustering system fragmentation them. Finally, the performance of this paper was evaluated based on the implementation results compared to traditional methods.

In this paper, the possibility and necessity of the digital broadcasting propulsion in AM and FM is presented based on DRM and DRM+ transmission modes, They are the members of series technological family in digital radio development. As the frequency utilization, the application of DRM+ is flexible in any mode such as IN-BAND or OUT-OF-BAND. When the digital audio broadcasting is planned at LOW-VHF bandwidth such as TV channel No.5 and NO.6 being adjacent to FM band and OUT-Of-BAND DRM+ technology is applied, there is no collision and jamming. Particularly, in the IN-BAND Hybrid mode, it is mentioned that there was the difficulty problem for multiple SFN transmitters uses. Not like the IN-BAND mode the OUT-OF-BAND mode lets multiple transmitters, because neighbor transmitters do not interfere each other. Digital transmitter can be combined with the existing FM transmitter. The intensity of power and size of area can be easily determined according to local broadcasters' condition. And the OUT-OF-BAND mode is advantageous for AM/FM integration in digital radio receiver manufacturing, which makes the conversion schedule much shorter.

Fast developments of broadcasting technologies since 1990s enabled not only High Definition Television service providing high quality audiovisual contents at home but also mobile broadcasting service providing audiovisual contents to high speed moving vehicle. Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) is one of the technologies developed for mobile broadcasting service, which has been successfully commercialized. One of the major technical breakthroughs achieved by T-DMB in addition to robust vehicular reception is an adoption of framework based on MPEG-4 System. It naturally enables integrated interactive data services by using Binary Format for Scene (BIFS) technology for scene description and representation of graphics object and Object Descriptor Framework representing multimedia service components as objects. T-DMB interactive data service has two fundamental limitations. Firstly, graphic data for interactive service should be always overlaid on top of a video not to be rendered out of it. Secondly, data for interactive service is only received by broadcasting channel. These limitations were considered as general in broadcasting systems. However, they are being considered as hard limitations for personalized data services using location information and user characteristics which are becoming widely used for data services of smart devices in these days. In this paper, the architecture of T-DMB hybrid data service is proposed which is utilizing broadcasting network, wireless internet and local storage for delivering BIFS data to overcome these limitations. This paper also presents hybrid BIFS technology to implement T-DMB hybrid data service while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy T-DMB players.

Local governments are conducting smartphone usage training for the elderly to bridge the information gap caused by a super-aged society. However, the one-to-many educational approach has limitations, and the elderly face difficulties due to insufficient learning effectiveness. This study proposes an educational service that can be used in offline training settings, considering an environment where the elderly can repeatedly learn to address these issues. This service utilizes generative AI to identify the parts that users find challenging and provides personalized problems for individualized practice. Integrating this app with existing local government training programs is expected to significantly enhance the efficiency of smartphone education in terms of personalized 1:1 training, time management, and the appropriateness of educational content.

The main research question of this paper is as follows: How can broadcasting both cause the crisis in democratic participation and yet also offer the solution? The contradiction in broadcast localism has never been adequately resolved in spite of regulation at all in practice, in that localism simply cannot account for the diversity of modern life and for the external forces that incorporate local communities into much larger economic and communications network. The concept of locality in local television, however, has been multiplied and enlarged in order to adjust to "time-space compression". Recently the local television have been "interface" combining and negotiating the globalization of media market and the decentralization of political power, the economies of scale and the activation of local democracy, consequently aiming at the horizontal-cooperative network instead of old vertical-dependent one.
