Using the FSSP-100(FSSP) and Microwave Radiometer (MWR), the fog and clear day characteristics (the size and number concentration of fog particles and the liquid water content) have been measured and analyzed at Daegwallyoung observation site ($37^{\circ}41^{\prime}N$, $128^{\circ}45^{\prime}E$) during 27 - 30 November 2003 (fog day) and 19 January 2004 (clear day). During the fog days, the measured fog-particle size by using FSSP is 0.8~8.4 ${\mu}m$, which is similar to the WMO typical value, the fog number concentration varies from 121 to 200 count ($No./cm^2$) and the fog liquid water content from $0.018g/m^3-0.1g/m^3$ in the site. The precipitable water vapor obtained by the MWR, showing the correlation coefficient $R^2$=0.83 between the total precipitable water vapor obtained from the radio sonde and MWR, shows the larger amount (0.75-8.3 cm) during the fog days than the clear-sky data (0.2 cm).

Compressed sensing can be used to reduce scan time or to enhance spatial resolution in MRI. It is now recognized that compressed sensing works well in reconstructing magnitude images if the sampling mask and the sparsifying transform are well chosen. Phase images also play important roles in MRI particularly in chemical shift imaging and magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT). We reconstruct MRI phase images using the compressed sensing technique. Through computer simulation and real MRI experiments, we reconstructed phase images using the compressed sensing technique and we compared them with the ones reconstructed by conventional Fourier reconstruction technique. As compared to conventional Fourier reconstruction with the same number of phase encoding steps, compressed sensing shows better performance in terms of mean squared phase error and edge preservation. We expect compressed sensing can be used to reduce the scan time or to enhance spatial resolution of MREIT.

Real time transparency estimation method was studied using AVHRR Channel 1 (Visible band, 0.58 - 0.68 $\mu\textrm{m}$) digital number (DN) of NOAA Satellite. The relationshop between the measured transparency and the digital number shows following exponential equation in the southeastern Yellow Sea : Tr = 4820 $\times$ exp (-0.082 $\times$ DN), 77 $\leq$ DN < 105 where Tr is the transparency in meters and DN is the digital number of AVHRR Channel 1. From this equation, real time transparency can be simply estimated using data from the NOAA Ground Station of National Fisheries Research and Development Agency.

이미 할당된 무선 자원의 고갈과 새로운 무선 서비스에 대한 주파수의 수요 증가는 인지 라디오 기술의 중요성을 부각시키고 있다. 인지 라디오 기술은 기존에 할당되어 사용중인 주파수의 사용 현황을 스캐닝하여 빈 채널 감지 시 해당 채널을 통해 통신하는 개념이다. 이러한 기술을 사용한 인지 라디오 네트워크에서 스펙트럼 센싱의 정확성을 높이고자 다수의 노드에서 센싱하여 종합 판단하는 분산 스펙트럼 센싱 기술이 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 참여하는 센싱노드의 위협 가능성 때문에 해당 메커니즘에서의 안전성 보장 기능이 필수적이다. 이에 센싱노드의 평판값(reputation)을 기반으로 WSPRT(weighted sequential probability ratio test)를 적용하여 센싱 결과들을 퓨전하는 RDSS 메커니즘이 제안되었다. 그러나 RDSS에서는 센싱 결과의 입력순서에 따라 WSPRT 수행 횟수가 늘어날 수 있고, 공격 당한 센싱노드의 센싱값에 대해 빠르게 대처할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 평판값이 높은 센싱값부터 우선적으로 WSPRT에 입력하며, 평판값 변화를 트랜드 값으로 계산하고 이를 이용하여 공격가능성을 타진하고 그 가능성이 높은 센싱값인 경우 퓨전에서 배제시켜 빠르게 공격에 대응할 수 있는 메커니즘을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 메커니즘이 RDSS보다 적은 수의 센싱값을 가지고 보다 정확하게 유휴 채널을 감지하여 공격 대응에 우수한 성능을 제공함을 입증하였다.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are one of the basic building blocks of Internet of Things (IoT) systems. However, the wireless sensing nodes in WSNs suffer from energy constraint issues because the replacement/recharging of the batteries of the nodes tends to be difficult. Furthermore, a number of realistic IoT scenarios, such as habitat and battlefield monitoring, contain mobile sensing elements, which makes the energy issues more critical. This research paper focuses on realistic WSN scenarios that involve mobile sensing elements with the aim of mitigating the attendant energy constraint issues using the concept of radio-frequency (RF) energy extraction. The proposed technique incorporates a cluster head election workflow for WSNs that includes mobile sensing elements capable of RF energy harvesting. The extensive simulation analysis demonstrated the higher efficacy of the proposed technique compared with the existing techniques in terms of residual energy, number of functional nodes, and network lifetime, with approximately 50% of the nodes found to be functional at the 4000th, 5000th, and 6000th rounds for the proposed technique with initial energies of 0.25, 0.5 and 1 J, respectively.

In this paper, we investigated the throughput of a cognitive radio network where two primary frequency channels (PCs) are sensed and opportunistically accessed by N secondary users. The sharing sensing member (SSM) protocol is introduced to sense both PCs simultaneously. According to the SSM protocol, N SUs (Secondary User) are divided into two groups, which allows for the simultaneous sensing of two PCs. With a frame structure, after determining whether the PCs are idle or active during a sensing slot, the SUs may use the remaining time to transmit their own data. The throughput of the network is formulated as a convex optimization problem. We then evaluated an iterative algorithm to allocate the optimal sensing time, fusion rule and the number of members in each group. The computer simulation and numerical results show that the proposed optimal allocation improves the throughput of the SU under a misdetection constraint to protect the PCs. If not, its initial date of receipt shall be nullified.

In this paper, we analyze the spectrum-sensing performance of a cooperative cognitive radio (CR) network consisting of a number of CR nodes and a fusion center (FC). We introduce the "log-average-SNR ratio" that relates the average SNR of the CR-node-FC link and that of the primary-user-CR-node link. Assuming that the FC utilizes the K-out-of-N rule as its decision rule, we derive exact expressions for the sensing gain and the coding gain - parameters used to characterize the CR network performance at the high SNR region. Based on these results, we determine ways to optimize the performance of the CR network.

An extensive investigation of photon interaction properties has been made for $Zn_xTe_{100-x}$ alloys (where x = 5, 20, 30, 40, 50) to explore its possible use in sensing and shielding gamma radiations. The results show better and stable response of ZnTe alloys for various photon interaction properties over the wide energy range, with an additional benefit of ease in fabrication due to lower melting points of Zn and Te. Mass attenuation coefficient values show strong dependence on photon energy as well as composition. Effective atomic number has maximum value for $Zn_5Te_{95}$ and lowest for $Zn_{50}Te_{50}$ in the entire energy region. The alloy sample with maximum $Z_{eff}$ shows minimal value of $N_e$ and vice versa. Mean free path follows inverse trend as observed for mass attenuation coefficient. The exposure and energy absorption buildup factors depend upon photon energy, penetration thickness and composition (effective atomic number) of $Zn_xTe_{100-x}$ alloys. It finds its application for sensing and shielding from highly energetic and highly penetrating photons at sites where radioactive materials were used and visibility of material is not a big constraint. Further, energy down conversion property of ZnTe alloys with subsequent emission in green band suggests its potential use in sensing gamma photons.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to conserve resources of the common control channel in a cognitive radio network by rejecting the redundant users using cooperative spectrum sensing. The proposed scheme is investigated under the paradigm of active spectrum sensing and a sequential detection technique. The algorithm is based on the J-divergence between the hypotheses of non primary user operation and the otherwise case. We select the most significant eigenvalues, which primarily affect the global statistical test. For the case where interference is from a secondary system transmission, a match filter is first employed to remove the degradation, and then the proposed algorithm is employed to remove the cooperative sensing nodes. Numerical results are provided and compared with conventional cases in order to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
