In this paper, we propose a novel protocol called a Multi-hop Diversity Transmission protocol in which the retransmission is realized by a relay that is Nearest to a current Source (MDTNS). We derive the mathematical expressions of the packet error rate (PER) and the average number of transmissions over Nakagami-m fading channels, and verify them by Monte Carlo simulations. The simulation results show that the MDTNS protocol improves the performance of the network in terms of PER when compared to the Multi-hop Diversity Transmission protocol in which the retransmission is done by a relay that is Nearest to Destination (MDTND) and to the conventional multi-hop transmission (CMT) protocol.

A Genetic algorithm is a searching algorithm that based on the law of the survival of the fittest. Multi-population Genetic Algorithms are a modified form of genetic algorithm. Therefore, experience with fuzzy logic and genetic algorithm has proven to be that a combination of them can efficiently make up for their own deficiency. The Multi-population Genetic Algorithms independently evolve subpopulations. In this paper, we suggest a new coding method that independently evolves subpopulations using the fuzzy logic controller. The fuzzy logic controller has applied two fuzzy logic controllers that are implemented to adaptively adjust the crossover rate and mutation rate during the optimization process. The migration scheme in the multi-population genetic algorithms using fuzzy logic controllers is tested for a function optimization problem, and compared with other group migration schemes, therefore the groups migration scheme is then performed. The results demonstrate that the migration scheme in the multi-population genetic algorithms using fuzzy logic controller has a much better performance.

In this paper, a multi-channel speech enhancement method using the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) algorithm and a variable learning rate control is proposed. To control the learning rate for adaptive filters of the LCMV algorithm, the direction of arrival (DOA) is measured for each short-time input signal and the likelihood function of the target speech presence is estimated to control the filter learning rate. Using the likelihood measure, the learning rate is increased during the pure noise interval and decreased during the target speech interval. To optimize the parameter of the mapping function between the likelihood value and the corresponding learning rate, an exhaustive search is performed using the Bark's scale distortion (BSD) as the performance index. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional LCMV with fixed learning rate in the BSD by around 1.5 dB.

The HCCI engine is a next generation engine, with high efficiency and low emissions. The engine may be an alternative to SI and DI engines; however, a pressure rise rate is a major limitation for high load range and power reduction. Recently, we were able to reduce the pressure rise rate using thermal stratification. Nevertheless, this was insufficient to produce high power. In this study, the reduction of the pressure rise rate using thermal stratification was confirmed and the HCCI engine power was increased using the boost pressure. The rate and engine power were produced by CHEMKIN and modified SENKIN. As a result of increasing the boost pressure, a higher IMEP was attained while the pressure rise rate increased only slightly in the HCCI with thermal stratification.

다중 반송파를 사용하는 직접 대역확산 부호분할 다중접속 통신시스템에서 주파수 효율 향상을 위한 전송 전력 및 전송률 적응화 시스템을 제안하고 그 성능을 분석하였다. 본 논문에서는 수신단에서 이상적인 채널상태 정보를 알고 있다는 가정 하에, 주파수 영역에서는 각 사용자의 부채널 중에서 가장 채널상태가 좋은 한 대역을 선택하여 전력을 할당하고 시간 영역에서는 목표 수신 품질을 만족하도록 전송률을 결합 조정하는 것을 제안하였다. 수학적 분석을 통하여 평균 전송 전력이 고정되어 있을 때 제안한 방식의 평균 데이터 전송률을 구하고 전력 혹은 전송률 적응화가 적용된 단일 반송파 부호분할 다중접속 통신시스템과 그 성능을 비교하였다.

Venturi meter is frequently used in feed water flow control system in a nuclear power plant. Its accurate measurement plays a vital role in the safe operation of the plant. This paper firstly investigates the influence of the length of each section of pipeline, the throat inner diameter of Venturi and the flow characteristics in a single-phase flow on the accuracy of Venturi measurement by numerical calculation. Then the flow and the accuracy are discussed in a multi-phase flow. Numerical results show that the geometrical parameters and the characteristics of complex turbulent flow in the single-phase flow have little impact on the accuracy of Venturi flow rate measurement. In the multi-phase flow, the calculated flow rate of Venturi deviated from the actual flow rate and this deviation value is closely related to the amount of steam in the pipeline and increases sharply with the increase of the amount of steam. The over-reading of Venturi flow rate is present.

다중 전송률을 지원하는 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서 송신 노드는 통신 채널의 적정한 전송률 선택을 통해 통신의 전송범위를 동적으로 조절할 수 있다. 이러한 특성을 이용하여 다중 전송률 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서의 브로드캐스트 알고리즘인 WCDS에서는 적은 지연시간을 위한 브로드캐스트 방법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 WCDS를 보완하여 트리 생성시 고려하는 노드가 같은 비교값을 가졌을 때 임의의 노드 선택이 아닌 소스노드로부터의 지연시간을 고려하여 전체 지연시간 최소화를 위한 브로드캐스트 알고리즘인 MinLink_WCDS 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 MinLink_WCDS 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해서 802.11 파라미터를 기본으로 한 다중 전송률 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서 시뮬레이션을 통해서 기존의 기법들과 비교하였다.

수중통신에서 빠른 채널 특성의 변화에 따른 성능 감소를 보상하기 위해, 동일한 데이터를 여러 개의 주파수 대역으로 전송하는 다중 밴드 기법을 적용한다. 그러나 다중 밴드의 적용 시 특정한 밴드의 성능 열화로 전체 성능이 감소하는 현상이 발생한다. 이를 극복하기 위해 각 밴드의 오류율을 분석하여 성능이 열악한 밴드에 낮은 가중치를 할당할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 추정 Bit Error Rate(BER)을 이용한 가중치 설정 방법을 제안한다. 추정 BER을 이용한 가중치 설정 방식은 복호 된 데이터와 복조 후 데이터의 성능 차이를 이용하여 수신된 데이터의 신뢰도를 측정하며, 측정된 값을 이용하여 각 밴드별 가중치를 설정해 복호기로 입력하면 성능이 향상된다. 본 논문에서는 터보 부호화 기법을 적용하였으며 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 최적의 가중치 값을 설정해 해상 실험을 한 결과 추정 BER을 이용한 가중치 설정을 통해 오류를 모두 정정할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the Packet CDMA Reservation ALOHA protocol is proposed to support the multi-traffic services such as voice and videophone services with handoff calls, high-rate data and low-rate data services efficiently on the multi-rate transmission in uplink cellular systems. The frame structure, composed of the access slot and the transmission slot, and the proposed access permission probability based on the estimated number of contending users for each service are presented to reduce MAI. The assured priority to the voice and the videophone handoff calls is given through higher access permission probability. And through the proposed code assignment scheme, the voice service can be provided without the voice packet dropping probability in the CDMA/PRMA protocols. The code reservation is allowed to the voice and the videophone services. The low-rate data service uses the available codes during the silent periods of voice calls and the remaining codes in the codes assigned to the voice service to utilize codes efficiently. The high-rate data service uses the assigned codes to the high-rate data service and the remaining codes in the codes assigned to the videophone service. Using the Markov-chain subsystem model for each service including the handoff calls in uplink cellular systems, the steady-state performances are simulated and analyzed. After a round of tests for the examples, through the proposed code assignment scheme and the access permission probability, the Packet CDMA Reservation ALOHA protocol can guarantee the priority and the constant QoS for the handoff calls even at large number of contending users. Also, the data services are integrated efficiently on the multi-rate transmission.

This study was mainly aimed at investigating on the effects of background noises (i.e., white noise, multi-speaker conversational babble) on stuttering rate and other speech-related measures (i.e., articulation rate, speech effort). Nine Korean-speaking adults who stutter participated in the study. Each of the participants was asked to read a series of passages under each of four experimental conditions (i.e., typical solo reading (TR), choral reading (CR), reading under white noise presented (WR), reading with multi-speaker conversational babble presented (BR). Stuttering rate was computed based on a percentage of syllables stuttered (%SS) and articulation rate was also assessed as another speech-related measure under each of the experimental conditions. To examine the amount of physical effort needed to read, the speech effort was measured by using the 9-point Speech Effort Self Rating Scale originally employed by Ingham et al. (2006). Study results showed that there were no significant differences among each of the passage reading conditions in terms of stuttering rate, articulation rate, and speech effort. In conclusion, it can be argued that the two different types of background noises (i.e., white noise and multi-speaker conversational babble) are not different in the extent to which each of them enhances fluency of adults who stutter. Self ratings of speech effort may be also useful in measuring speech-related variables associated with vocal changes induced under each of the fluency enhancing conditions.
