  • MC-DS-CDMA is technique where a single data symbol is transmitted at multiple subcarriers which are orthogonal to each other. With this technique, frequency diversity can be achieved. The performance of PSAM MC-DS-CDMA system with the application of MRRC antenna diversity is analyzed. The BER performance of this system over multipath fading environment is evaluated, considering the channel estimation error, carrier frequency offset, and the nonlinear high power amplifier.

  • The continuous energy Monte Carlo neutron transport code, MC21, was coupled to the CTF subchannel thermal-hydraulics code using a combination of Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) tools and in-house Python scripts. An MC21/CTF solution for VERA Core Physics Benchmark Progression Problem 6 demonstrated good agreement with MC21/COBRA-IE and VERA solutions. The MC21/CTF solution for VERA Core Physics Benchmark Progression Problem 7, Watts Bar Unit 1 at beginning of cycle hot full power equilibrium xenon conditions, is the first published coupled Monte Carlo neutronics/subchannel T-H solution for this problem. MC21/CTF predicted a critical boron concentration of 854.5 ppm, yielding a critical eigenvalue of $0.99994{\pm}6.8E-6$ (95% confidence interval). Excellent agreement with a VERA solution of Problem 7 was also demonstrated for integral and local power and temperature parameters.

  • With ever-advancing computer technology, the Monte Carlo (MC) neutron transport calculation is expanding its application area to nuclear reactor transient analysis. Dynamic MC (DMC) neutron tracking for transient analysis requires efficient algorithms for delayed neutron generation, neutron population control, and initial condition modeling. In this paper, a new MC steady-state simulation method based on time-dependent MC neutron tracking is proposed for steady-state initial condition modeling; during this process, prompt neutron sources and delayed neutron precursors for the DMC transient simulation can easily be sampled. The DMC method, including the proposed time-dependent DMC steady-state simulation method, has been implemented in McCARD and applied for two-dimensional core kinetics problems in the time-dependent neutron transport benchmark C5G7-TD. The McCARD DMC calculation results show good agreement with results of a deterministic transport analysis code, nTRACER.

  • In this paper, we discusses that the theoretical analysis is made for the performance of FS MC-CDMA by the aid of the Nakagami fading channels and the block error probabilities of the FS MC-CDMA in Nakagami fading channel are presented. The channel fading speed, slow or fast, is considered in evaluating block error probabilities. The effectiveness of diversity combining in improving block error performance is examined.

  • Purpose : The study looked at how effective each group wearing MyoVison lens, MC lens, and Single Vision lensdepending on their parents' myopia condition. Methods : The study observed the changeof spherical equivalent among customers, who visited between January 2010 and December 2016,of an optical shop in Incheon Metropolitan City. And we observed MyoVision 152 eyes, MC Lens 86 eyes and Single Vision lens 270 eyes. This study was conducted using SPSS ver18, which analyzes the changes in average values of MyoVision, MC Lens, and Single Vision for a year.In each group, the differences in the group were compared using the Paired T-test and then one-way ANOVA (post-hoc; Bonferroni) Results : Group-to-group comparisons showed that MyoVision and MC Lens have a shorterinhibition than Single Vision. In particular, MyoVisionand MC Lens showed different relief effects depending on the degree of refraction of parents.When both parents had normal refractive, the change between MyoVision and Single Vision lens was $-0.35{\pm}0.05D$. When the father had a refraction MC lens were $-0.36{\pm}0.14D$ more effective than Single Vision. When only the mother had refraction, the mean value between MyoVision and Single Vision lens was $-0.37{\pm}0.06D$, and the mean between MC lens and Single Vision lens was $-0.38{\pm}0.08D$. And when both parents had refraction problems, the mean value change between MyoVision and Single Vision lens was $-0.28{\pm}0.07D$, and $-0.31{\pm}0.07D$, respectively. Conclusion : MyoVision and MC Lens appeared to have no effect on the functions of mitigating myopia in within group comparisons, but MyoVision and MC Lens showed reducing myopia than Single Vision in between group.

  • This study was to evaluate microcystin production by Microcystis aeruginosa in response to three different levels of indirect (0, 10, 50% of fish cultured media filtrate; control, FCMF1 and FCMF2) exposures to omnivorous and planktivorous fish (Carassius gibelio langsdorfi and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, CCMF and HCMF, repectively). The cell biomass, intracellular microcystin (MC) and extracellular MC were measured everyday. The intracellular MC contents of all treatments were significantly increased than the controls (CCMF1, P=0.015; CCMF2, P<0.001; HCMF1, P<0.001; HCMF2, P<0.001). The intracellular MC contents of M. aeruginosa were significantly higher in CCMF2 than in CCMF1 (P=(0.023), Those of M, aeruginosa in HCMF2 were significantly higher than that in HCMF1 (P<0.001). The extracellular MC contents were not significantly different between control and CCMFs but those of M, aeruginosa in HCMF1 and HCMF2 were significantly higher than that in control (HCMF1, P=0.003; HCMF2, P<0.001). This study strongly supports that induced-defensive MC production (intra and extracellular MC) of potentially toxic cyanobacteria in response to kairomone concentration and this results can consider the biomanipulation of eutrophic waters as well as an information concerning strategies for recovering eutrophic waters.

  • Purpose: This paper was to study the clinical effects of moderating myopia by comparing the myopia control lens, which was being recently recognized as a method of inhibiting the progression of myopia, with the wearers of single vision lens. Methods: Using 56 subjects between the ages of 8-15 years (112 eyes) with myopia in the areas of City of Daegu and Gyeongsangbuk Province as study subjects, refractive error, axial length, near point of convergence and accommodative near point were measured and compared a total of 3 times at the baseline, after 1-month and after 6-months. Results: For refractive error, suppression and mitigation were seen in the progression of spherical equivalent when MC lens was worn, as compared to using SV lens, and, when axial length MC lens was worn, the axial progression was significantly suppressed and delayed (p < 0.05). The near point of convergence became shorter with the use of MC lens, and the amplitude of convergence was improved when MC lens was worn. Accommodative near point became shorter with the use of MC lens, and focus ability was significantly improved (p <0.05). Conclusions: It was shown that MC lens, compared to SV lens, could alleviate myopia progression in school-age children and youth. It is considered that MC lens can be used as a useful therapy for the inhibition of myopia progression in the increasing number of myopic children and adolescents.
