In this paper we applied TVS(Triangular Voltage Sweep) method to calculate the mobile ionic charge densities in some ferroelectric thin films. During the measurement, the temperature of specimens were maintained at 20$0^{\circ}C$. By this method, the amount of mobile ionic charge Q$_{m}$ and mobile ionic charge density N$_{m}$ of a MFIS structure were calculated 3.5 [pC] and about 4.3$\times$10$^{11}$ [ions/cm$^2$], respectively. In order to successful TVS measurement, the gate leakage current density of films must be low 10$^{-9}$ (A/cm$^2$) order.der.

The introduction of a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) system is expected to increase consumer benefits, boost competition in the mobile market, utilize idle bandwidth, and expedite mobile-fixed line convergence and growth in the mobile Internet market. This research endeavors to study the optimal access charge for an MVNO system, which is expected to be introduced to the Korean mobile communications market. We found that the optimal access charge is higher in the interdependent model than in the independent model if demand for mobile phone service is based on a substitution relationship. We also found that the optimal access charge is higher than the marginal cost.

The detection technique both the polarization and the mobile charge density at the same time in ferroelectric films on Si using TVS method have been proposed. This method yields a polarizable and an ionic displacement current peaks whose areas are proportional to the total polarization reversal charge and the total moble ionic space charge, respectively. The calculated polarization and the mobile charge density were 0.42 [$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$] and 5.5$\times$10$^{11}$ (ions/$\textrm{cm}^2$) in the SBT film of MFIS structure measured at 25$0^{\circ}C$, and 1.4 [$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$] in the LiNbO$_3$ film of MFS structure measured at 30$0^{\circ}C$, respectively.

As the mobile telecommunications service market grows rapidly, interconnection opportunities from the fixed network to the mobile network increase and the land-to-mobile (LM) interconnection charge becomes critical factor in competition between fixed and mobile telecommunications service providers. This paper aims to evaluate the LM interconnection charge level in Korea in comparison with those of 36 foreign countries and suggest the regression model for the LM interconnection charge. Based on the regression analysis, we found that regulation, GDP per capita, wire telephone penetration, liberalization are identified as significantly affecting factors on the LM interconnection charge level, and the level of the LM interconnection charge is comparatively low.

Purpose - This paper analyzes the effect of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation, which are the main regulation adopted in "Law on the Improvement of the Mobile Terminal Distribution System" (Mobile Terminal Distribution Act), on the social surplus, the consumer surplus and profits of telecommunications carriers. We focus our analysis on whether the service charge competition is stimulated enough so that it can compensate for the loss of subsidies. Research design, data, and methodology - We use simple economic model to assess the impact of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation. Unlike the former researches on this topic, we depart from using Hotelling model, and instead use the switching cost model, which uses switching cost as a parameter of market powers of telecommunications carriers. We also study the effect of the two different regulations when they are adopted both independently and concurrently. Results - If the market powers of telecommunications carriers are over certain threshold, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, the service charge competition would not be stimulated enough to compensate for the deduction in the subsidies, and thus the consumer surplus is compromised. Number Portability subsidy, especially, undermines the rival's market power and thus reduces the service charge. On the other hand, the regulations will also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers. However, social surplus is maximized when both of the regulations are present because the regulations reduces the frequency of switching handsets inefficiently. Conclusions - In enacting the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act, the telecommunications regulatory agency asserted that the regulation on subsidies will stimulate service charge competition, and in the long run, enhance the consumer surplus. However, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, subsidy regulation, especially the regulation on Number Portability subsidy, reduces consumer surplus. On the other hand, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers because it decreases competition among the telecommunications carriers. However, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can increase the social surplus because it reduces inefficient switching of handsets.

본 연구에서는 Bias Temperature Stress (BTS) 측정을 통한 다층세라믹커패시터(Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitor, MLCC) 소자 분석에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. BTS 분석은 소자 내부에 존재하는 Na+, K+ 등의 mobile charge 검출을 위한 방법으로 positive bias와 negative bias stress에 따른 C-V 특성 곡선으로부터 mobile charge의 정량적 해석이 가능하다. 실험 결과 positive bias stress 후의 C-V 특성 곡선이 stress 전 C-V 특성 곡선과 비교해 negative bias 영역으로 0.0376 V 만큼 shift 하였다. 또한 수식(QM = $Cox{\cdot}{\triangle}V$)으로부터 $1.7{\times}1,011$개의 mobile charge가 존재함을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 MLCC 소자 내의 금속 오염물 존재 여부에 따른 소자의 전기적 특성 변화 분석을 위해 진행되었으며, BTS 분석은 반도체 소자 뿐 아니라 본 연구에서와 같이 커패시터 소자의 결함 여부 판단에도 이용 가능함을 확인하였다.

The key objective of this paper is to suggest a pilot model for mobile network interconnection charge calculation by bottom-up long-run incremental costing methodology. Interconnection issues have lately attracted considerable attention by network operators and regulators. However there is no standard by all the network operators' agreement. The costing method is an acute problem because the interconnection charge is directly related to the network operators' revenue. Thus Korea has planned to launch the new interconnection policy based on the current traffic distribution and then we simulate the model in a sample area with virtual data. The results propose objective and reasonable guideline for the mobile network element cost calculation. It can be helpful for calculating price floor or bottom-up long run incremental interconnection charge by regulator.

This Paper deals with the model of fixed-mobile interconnection. Specifically, how interconnection charge and originating price are determined when there is customer ignorance about terminating network or the price. This paper shows that the terminating charge with customer ignorance is higher than without that, and therefore the retail price becomes higher. This paper discusses the several methods to prevent the increase of the retail price and suggests the scheme to regulate the retail price and interconnection charge, simultaneously.

The study on Wholesale pricing of MVNO using two way interconnection charge system is rare. This paper considers MVNO possessing its own facilities and subscribers. While previous studies focus on wholesale provision by MNO, this paper employs another approach from existing MVNO model. This paper introduces two way interconnection charge system by recognizing that mobile network interconnection is important to complete the call from MNO to MVNO as well as the call from MVNO to MNO. Also it is interesting to analyze wholesale pricing when there is brand loyalty between MNO and MVNO. This paper analyzes retail pricing and wholesale pricing under duopoly competition and drives social optimal solutions using linear city model.
