Interest in wireless power transfer (WPT) has been growing recently due to the rapid increase in the use of electronic devices. Wireless charging systems are currently being applied to mobile phones and many studies are being conducted to apply wireless charging systems to various devices. The current wireless charging systems are capable of 1:1 charging. For wireless charging, when the devices with the same resonance frequency are present in the vicinity, the charging efficiency may be significantly lowered due to frequency interference or the wireless charging systems may stop operating. In this paper, variable capacitors were applied to a superconducting WPT system to solve the frequency interference among multiple devices with the same frequency. When a wireless charging system was performing 1:1 operation, the frequency of the other devices was varied using variable capacitors. As a result, it was confirmed that the highly efficient WPT is possible without frequency interference even when multiple receivers are present.

It should guarantee high reliability and ultra low latency communication. Additionally, it should support connection between massive devices. As one of estimated scenarios for 5G mobile communication, mobile devices and sensors using low data rate wireless communication will increase. For communication of these devices, single-carrier system can be considered. In order to satisfy these requirements, in this paper, we propose CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) system using complex spreading and Multi-level BPSK(Binary Phase Shift Keying). The proposed system spread transmit symbol by using chip code consisted of real and imaginary number. As simulation results, we can confirm that although the proposed system has 3dB lower BER (Bit Error Rate) performance than conventional CDMA system, the proposed system can support 2 times more users in comparison with conventional CDMA system.

Recently, the demand has continued to increase for higher data rates and improved multimedia services through wireless internet access. In order to increase the data rate and link reliability, 3GPP LTE/A and IEEE 802.16e/m WiMAX systems incorporate MIMO transmission schemes. Since the hardware complexity increases with the number of transmit data streams and mobile devices have limited physical dimensions, an multiple input multiple output (MIMO) ystem with two antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver ($2{\times}2$) is considered to be a possible solution for mobile devices. In this paper, a low-complexity soft output MIMO symbol detector based on Modified-SQRD is proposed for mobile devices with two transmit and two receive antennas.

Recently, virtual reality (VR) has been actively used in various fields such as education, healthcare, entertainment, and training by providing immersive experiences. To operate multiple VR content programs without assistants and improve training efficiency, remote control of VR content programs within HMDs is necessary. In this paper, we develop management app for remotely controlling and monitoring multiple HMDs. First, we develop a function for HMD devices to connect to the management app. Second, we develop a function for simultaneously controlling HMD devices. Finally, we develop a function for monitoring HMD devices. In order to verify the developed functions, we measured the simultaneous control time and monitoring time. The measurement results showed that control took an average of 0.15 seconds and monitoring took an average of 0.81 seconds.

Active safety vehicle devices are getting more attention recently. To prevent traffic accidents, the environment in front and even around the vehicle must be checked and monitored. In the present applications, mainly camera and radar based systems are used as sensing devices. Laser scanner, one of the sensing devices, has the advantage of obtaining accurate measurement of the distance and the geometric information about the objects in the field of view of the laser scanner. However, there is a problem that detecting object occluded by a foreground one is difficult. In this paper, criterions are proposed to manage this problem. Simulation is conducted by vehicle mounted the laser scanner and multiple-hypothesis algorithm tracks the candidate objects. We compare the running times as multi-hypothesis algorithm parameter varies.

In remote villages without access to modern IT technology, simple devices such as smartcards can be used to carry out business transactions. These devices typically store multiple business applications from multiple vendors. Although devices must prevent malicious or accidental security breaches among the applications, a secure communication channel between two applications from different vendors is often required. In this paper, first, we propose a method of establishing secure communication channels between applications in embedded operating systems that run on multi-applet smart cards. Second, we enforce the high assurance using an intransitive noninterference security policy. Thirdly, we formalize the method through the Z language and create the formal specification of the proposed secure system. Finally, we verify its correctness using Rushby's unwinding theorem.

The study relates to achievement and analysis of 3-dimensional spatial pulse wave archived by a spatially arterial pulse diagnostic apparatus (SAPDA), wherein a pulse sensing part array consists of multiple hall devices and is located over a skin contacting part which consists of a magnetic material. When a radially arterial pulse is transferred to the magnetic material, which is contacted skin that results in changes in a magnetic field of the lower part of the pulse sensing part array, the changes in a magnetic field can be detected by the commercial Hall semiconductor device of the pulse sensing part array. Finally, according to development of SAPDA, the 3-dimensionally arterial pulse waveform can be measured noninvasively by detecting the changes of the magnetic field.

Global effort has resulted in tremendous progress with energy harvesters that extract mechanical energy from ambient sources, convert it to electrical energy, and use it for systems such as wrist watches, mobile electronic devices, wireless sensor nodes, health monitoring, and biosensors. However, harvesting a single energy source only still pauses a great challenge in driving sustainable and maintenance-free monitoring and sensing devices. Over the last few years, research on high-performance mechanical energy harvesters at the micro and nanoscale has been directed toward the development of hybrid devices that either aim to harvest mechanical energy in addition to other types of energies simultaneously or to exploit multiple mechanisms to more effectively harvest mechanical energy. Herein, we appraise the rational designs for multiple energy harvesting, specifically state-of-the-art hybrid mechanical energy harvesters that employ multiple piezoelectric and triboelectric mechanisms to efficiently harvest mechanical energy. We identify the critical material parameters and device design criteria that lead to high-performance hybrid mechanical energy harvesters. Finally, we address the future perspectives and remaining challenges in the field.

Several studies have reported the impact of core affinity on the network I/O performance of multi-core systems. As the network bandwidth increases significantly, it becomes more important to determine the effective core affinity. Although a framework for dynamic core affinity that considers both network and disk I/O has been suggested, the multiple queues provided by high-speed I/O devices are not properly supported. In this paper, we extend the existing framework of dynamic core affinity to efficiently support the multiple queues of high-speed I/O devices, such as 40 Gigabit Ethernet and NVM Express. Our experimental results show that the extended framework can improve the HDFS file upload throughput by up to 32%, and can provide improved scalability in terms of the number of cores. In addition, we analyze the impact of the assignment policy of multiple I/O queues across a number of cores.

In this paper, the application schemes for coordinated control system of multiple FACTS were presented to enhance the voltage stability around the metropolitan areas. In order to coordinated control of FACTS devices, f-V analysis method which is one of the indices for voltage stability was performed with real time network data which is transferred from SCADA/EMS system. If the system is unstable after contingencies, the new operation set-point of FACTS would be determined using bus sensitivity from tangent vector at voltage instability point. Otherwise, we would determine the new operation set-point of FACTS for considering economical operation, like as active power loss minimization using Optimal Power Flow algorithm. In simulation, the SCADA/EMS 2007's data are used for studying the coordinated control algorithm of multiple FACTS devices that is installed or will be installed in KOREA power system
