Recently, RFID has become popular in the field of remote sensing applications. Location awareness is one of the most important keys to deploying RFID for advanced object tracking. Generally, multiple reference RF stations or additional sensors are used for the location sensing with RFID, but, particularly in indoor environments, spatial layout and cost problems limit the applicability of those approaches. In this paper, we propose a novel method for location sensing with active RFID systems not requiring the need for reference stations or additional sensors. The system triangulates the position of RF signal source using the signal pattern of the loop antenna connected to the power detector. The power detector consists of a signal strength detector and a signal analysis unit. The signal analysis unit indicates the signal strength and serial number using the signal from the strength detector, and provides the direction of the signal to the application target. We designed three different signal analysis units depending on the threshold type. The developed system can sense the direction to the transponder located over 10 m away within the maximum error of $5^{\circ}$. It falls within a reasonable range in our normal office environment.

Stochastic ground-motion method is adopted to simulate horizontal PGA values for the offshore Uljin earthquake recorded at nationwide seismic stations. For this purpose, the Fourier spectra are calculated at every stations based on comprehensive results of wave propagation and site effect which were previously revealed through inversion process applied to large accumulated spectral D/B. In addition, the apparent source spectrum of the offshore Uljin earthquake is estimated by removing the path and site response from the observed spectra. The distance dependent time-duration model is revised by iteratively fitting the PGA values generated by using the raw spectra data to the observed PGA data. The stochastic ground-motion method predicts the observed PGA values within a error of ${\sigma}_{log10}=0.1$. Transfer functions of a site relative to another site are estimated based on the error residual of the inversion results and used to convert PGA values at multiple stations to expected PGA values at a reference station of TJN. The converted PGA values can be used as basic data to evaluate the ground-motion attenuation relations developed for seismic hazard analysis that concerns the large damaging earthquakes.

본 논문에서 정수론에 기초한 이진수호와 이전된 이진부호 사이의 시간옵셉을 계산하는 방법을 제시한다. 이 방법을 이용하여 이진부호 사이의 시간옵셉을 계산할 수 있다. 모든 기지국은 동일한 확산부호를 사용하므로써 동기 부호분할 다원접속 시스템에서 기준(영 \ulcorner\ulcornerV)부호를 정의하는 것은 중요하다. 다른 기지국으로부터 이동국에 수신되는 신호를 구별하기 위하여 영옵셉부호에 대한 시간옵셉을 사용하고 있다. 본 논문은 기준부호를 정의하는 방법을 제시한다.

본 논문에서는 Network RTK 보정정보 생성 프로세스에서 핵심 process인 기준국간 미지정수 결정을 위해 Hatch filter를 이용한 방법과 L1/L2 측정치 조합을 활용하는 방법에 대해 소개하고 시뮬레이션 데이터 및 실측 데이터를 활용하여 그 성능을 비교 및 검증하였다. 각각의 방법에 대해 수식 전개를 수행하였으며, 사용자 성능 검증을 위해서 다중 기준국 네트워크에 대해 생성한 보정정보와 사용자 위치에서 생성한 보정정보의 차이값을 비교하였다. 각각의 기준국간 미지정수 결정 방법을 실측 데이터에 적용하여 사용자 성능을 예측한 결과, Hatch filter를 사용한 경우에는 단일 기준국 RTK 기반의 방법에 비해 다중 기준국 네트워크에서 생성된 보정정보를 사용하는 것이 사용자 성능을 크게 향상시키는 결과를 확인하였다. 그러나 사용자의 미지정수에 영향은 없으나, 상당한 크기의 바이어스 오차가 포함되는 것을 확인하였고 그 원인에 대해 분석하였다. L1/L2 측정치 조합을 이용한 경우, Hatch filter를 사용한 방법에 비해 사용자에 발생하는 오차의 크기가 훨씬 감소하였으며 잔차의 경향성도 훨씬 감소한 것을 확인하였다.

기지국이 사용자 간의 채널 상태 정보를 완벽하게 알고 있는 가정 하에서, 기존의 상향링크 셀룰러 시스템에서의 간섭 정렬 (IA) 방식은 인접 셀 간섭 채널을 임의로 설정된 참조 벡터로 모두 정렬시킴으로써 셀 간 간섭 (ICI) 을 완벽히 제거할 수 있다. 하지만, 현실적으로 사용자와 기지국 간의 채널 상태 정보의 교환은 제한된 궤환 채널에 의해 이루어지고 그 결과 궤환 오류에 의한 잔여 ICI 의 발생은 시스템 성능 저하에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 잔여 ICI 를 최소화 할 수 있는 IA을 위한 최적화된 참조 벡터의 설계를 제안하고자 한다. 다음으로, 잔여 ICI의 최소화 뿐 만 아니라 기지국과 사용자 간의 요구 신호 (Desired signal) 세기의 최대화도 동시에 고려하는 반복적 연산 구조의 IA 기반 송수신기 설계 기법을 제안한다. 또한, 제안된 IA 알고리즘들과 연동된 사용자 스케줄링 기법을 제시함으로써 ICI를 효율적으로 제거함과 동시에 다중사용자 다양성 이득을 획득할 수 있도록 한다. 마지막으로, 이론적 분석 및 실험 결과를 통하여 기존의 IA 방식과 비교하여 제안된 IA 방식이 간섭 제한 영역에서 높은 성능을 나타냄을 확인할 수 있다.

In this parer, we propose a new way of improving DGNSS service using combination of multiple SBAS information. Because SBAS uses Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellites, it has very large coverage but it can be unavailable in urban canyon because of visibility problem. R. Chen solved this problem by creating Virtual Reference Stations (VRS) using the SBAS signal [1]. VRS converts SBAS signal to RTCM signals corresponding its location, and broadcast the converted RTCM signals over the wireless internet. This method can solve the visibility problem cost effectively. Furthermore it can solve DGNSS coverage problem by creating just a transmitter instead of a reference station. Developing above method, this paper proposes the methods that integrate two or more SEAS signals into one RTCM signal and broadcast it. In Korea, MSAS signal is available even though it is not officially certified for Korean users. As a Korean own SBAS-like system, there is the internet-based KWTB (Korean WADGPS Test Bed) which we developed and released at ION GNSS 2006. As a result, virtually two different SBAS corrections are available in Korea. In this paper, we propose the integration methods for these two independent SBAS corrections and present the test results using the actual measurements from the two systems. We present the detailed algorithm for these two methods and analyze the features and performances of them. To verify the proposed methods, we conduct the experiment using the logged SBAS corrections from the two systems and the RINEX data logged at Dokdo monitoring station in Korea. The preliminary test results showed the improved performance compared to the results from two independent systems, which shows the potential of our proposed methods. In the future, the newly developed SBASs will be available and the places which can access the multiple SBAS signals will increase. At that time, the integration or combination methods of two or more SBASs will become more important. Our proposed methods can be one of the useful solutions for that. As an additional research, we need to extend this research to the system level integration such as the concept of the decentralized W ADGPS.

CS/CB(Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming) 방식은 인접 기지국으로부터의 간섭신호를 최소화시키는 MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) 프리코더를 선택함으로써 셀 경계 사용자의 수율을 증가시킨다. 그러나 현재의 LTE(Long Term Evolution) 시스템에서는 안테나 한 개를 사용하여 주위 기지국으로부터 전송된 동기신호와 기준신호를 사용하여 초기화 단계에서 서빙 셀이 선택된다. 이와 같이 선택된 셀은 초기화 단계에서 MIMO 프리코더 이득을 고려하지 않고 선택되었기 때문에 데이터 전송시 최적의 선택이 아닐 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 MIMO 프리코더를 갖는 LTE 시스템을 위하여 초기화 단계에서 프리코더의 영향을 고려하여 셀을 선택하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 후보 기지국들에서 전송한 기준신호를 사용하여 획득한 정보(랭크, 유효 채널 용량, 유효 SINR(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio))를 사용하여 셀 경계의 단말이 서빙 기지국을 선택할 수 있도록 한다. 제안한 기법은 기존의 기법과 비교하여 다중 셀 환경하의 LTE 시스템에서 채널 용량을 크게 향상시킬 수 있음을 모의실험을 통하여 확인한다.

Organizations such as broadcasting stations and libraries which deal with huge amount of information require high-capacity storage systems for archiving their materials and information. It is necessary and urgent for the storage people to develop a compact, high capacity, and low-cost data storage systems. Even though the Blue-ray technology is commercialized and now it is on the market, demand for the compact and low-cost system is still increasing. A flexible disk system has been introduced recently to satisfy above mentioned requirements. The system uses multiple of thin disks and is expected to achieve technical requirements. However, decreasing the disk thickness makes it difficult to read and write data because it decreases the disk rigidity so that the transverse vibration of the rotating disk increases easily due to both the interaction with surrounding air and the vibration characteristics of thin flexible disk itself. In this study, flat-type stabilizer is proposed to suppress the transverse vibration of a $95{\mu}m$-thick polycarbonate disk. Characteristics of disk vibration have been studied through the results of numerical analysis from the fluid mechanics point of view. Numerical simulation is verified through the experiment by measuring the gap between the rotating disk and the stationary flat stabilizer. The axial deflections of the disk are computed for various rotating speeds and reference gap sizes and then a method of regression is applied to those data. As a result, an empirical relation is proposed for the steady deformation shape of the rotating disk.

Deformation measurement of large scale structures, such as the ground beds of high-rise buildings, tunnels, bridge, and railways, are important for insuring service quality and safety. The pose-relay videometrics method and displacement-relay videometrics method have already presented to measure the pose of non-intervisible objects and vertical subsidence of unstable areas, respectively. Both methods combine the cameras and cooperative markers to form the camera series networks. Based on these two networks, we propose two novel videometrics methods with closed-loop camera series network for deformation measurement of large scale structures. The closed-loop camera series network offers "closed-loop constraints" for the camera series network: the deformation of the reference points observed by different measurement stations is identical. The closed-loop constraints improve the measurement accuracy using camera series network. Furthermore, multiple closed-loops and the flexible combination of camera series network are introduced to facilitate more complex deformation measurement tasks. Simulated results show that the closed-loop constraints can enhance the measurement accuracy of camera series network effectively.

Soft clay is widely distributed in the southeast coastal areas of China. Many large underground structures, such as subway stations and underground pipe corridors, are shallow buried in the soft clay foundation, so the dynamic characteristics of the soft clay must be considered to the seismic design of underground structures. In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of saturated soft clay in Shanghai under the bidirectional excitation for earthquake loading are studied by dynamic triaxial tests, comparing the backbone curve and hysteretic curve of the saturated soft clay under different confining pressures with those under different vibration frequencies. Considering the coupling effects of the confining pressure and the vibration frequency, a fitting model of the maximum dynamic shear modulus was proposed by the multiple linear regression method. The M-D model was used to fit the variations of the dynamic shear modulus ratio with the shear strain. Based on the Chen model and the Park model, the effects of the consolidation confining pressure and the vibration frequency on the damping ratio were studied. The results can provide a reference to the earthquake prevention and disaster reduction in soft clay area.
