Multi-carrier demultiplexer/demodulator (MCDD) in an on-board processing (OBP) satellite used for digital multimedia services has two typical architectures according to the channel demultiplexing procedure: Multistage multi-carrier demultiplexer (M-MCD) or poly-phase fast Fourier transform (PPF). During the channel demultiplexing, phase and quantization errors influence the performance of MCDD; those errors affect the bit error rate (BER) performance of M-MCD and PPF differently. In this paper, we derive the phase error variances that satisfy the condition that M-MCD and PPF have the same signal to noise ratio according to quantization bits, and then, with these results, analyze the BER performances of M-MCD and PPF. The results provided here may be a useful reference for the selection of M-MCD or PPF in designing the MCDD in an OBP satellite communications system.

New coordination polymers of general form, $$[CoL_2X_2]_n$$ (L = 3,3'-oxybis(pyridine) (obp), 1,4-bis(3-pyri-doxy) benzene (bpob); X = Cl, NCS), have been prepared via a slow diffusion method. The reaction of the present linkers with cobalt(II) ion affords infinite 2-dimensional sheet products. For $[Co(obp) $_2Cl_2]_n$$, the local geometry of the cobalt center is an octahedral arrangement with four nitrogen donors and two chlorine ions in trans positions. $$[Co(bpob)_2(NCS)_2]_n$$ has provided a similar structure: the local geometry of the cobalt atom is an octahedral arrangement with four pyridine units and two NCS groups in transpositions. The obp and bpob linkers connect two cobalt(II) ions defining the edges of 40- and 60-membered $[Co(II)]_4$ ring, respectively. Thermal analyses of the coordination polymers show significant thermal behavior associated with the characteristic structures.

To search of a new porcine pheromonal odorants for biostimulation control system technologies to offer a potentially useful and practical way to improve reproductive efficiency in livestock species, the holographic quantitative structure activity relationship (HQSAR) model between odorants, 2-phenoxytetrahydrofurane (A), 2-cyclohexyl-oxytetrahydrofurane (B), derivatives and binding affinity constants (p[Od.]/sub 50/) for porcine odorant-binding protein (pOBP) as receptor of pig pheromones were derivated and disscused. The binding affinity constants of cyclohexyl substituents (A) for pOBP were higher (A>B) than that of phenyl substituents (B). It was revealed that the optimum HQSAR model XI using PLS analyses had a fragment length (5∼8) with chirality at 5 components and hologram length 97 bin, which had a cross-validated q²(predictablities) of 0.916, and a conventional correlation coefficient r² (fitness) of 0.988, respectively. From the atomic contribution, the C3 and C5 atom in 2-oxyfuryl group contributed to binding affinity constants, whereas the central carbon atom in tert-butyl group on the cyclohexyl ring and the C4 atom of furyl group parts showed no contribution.

Design issues of multi-beam satellite transponders have been actively studied. Multi-beam satellite transponders can be used in the first SS/TDMA system for satellite interactive multi-media services in Korea. To be used in SS/TDMA systems, a satellite transponder must have either base-band OBP(On-board Processor) or MSM(Microwave Switching Matrix) on-board switch those are capable to provide inter-connections to many earth stations in different beam coverages or different frequencies, i.e., Ka and Ku band. The use of MSM is considered proper due to a substantial developing cost and the required high techniques in base-band OBP. In this paper, we present a designed scheme of transponder being optimally suitable to the targeted SS/TDMA satellite systems, also analysis the performance.

This paper analyzes the channel assignment techniques and their performance in the On Board Processing (OBP) satellite communication system. It suggests the new Continuous Rate Assignment (CRA) and Dynamic Rare Assignment (DRA) for improving the efficiency of channel assignment at the OBP switch. Mathematical analysis and simulation are given to evaluate the system performance. Aggregate real-time and non-real-time services are considered as different classes. Higher priority is given to voice and video real-time services to avoid delay variation. Onboard scheduler uses CRA and DRA ways to arrange the capacity allocation dynamically. An improved algorithm is given to make the channel more efficient by doing some evaluation of the switching matrix.

Chronic exposure to atrazine (ATR) raises concerns about adverse effects on reproductive functions. We tested our previously validated filtering device, the OBP-based filter, onto a biological model constituted of cultured swine granulosa cells treated for 48 h with media conditioned with 0.1 or $10{\mu}M$ ATR evaluating cell viability and steroidogenesis. The tested atrazine concentrations did not change granulosa cell viability and no filtering effects was observed following treatments with media prepared with differently filtered water. As for steroidogenesis, treatment of water with OBP-based filter containing $10{\mu}M$ atrazine completely suppressed the stimulatory effect of $10{\mu}M$ atrazine on progesterone production as well as the inhibitory effect of $0.1{\mu}M$ ATR on estradiol-$17{\beta}$ production by granulosa cells. Our data demonstrate that the impairment of steroidogenesis induced by ATR is effectively removed after water filtration in the experimental device thus suggesting potential use in biotechnological applications on living cells and/or organisms.

In this paper, System performance parameters such as throughput, blocking probability and delay have been analyzed and expressed as a function of demanding traffic and service termination, probability, and we centers our discussion at particular downlink port of satellite switch which is capable of switching the individual spot beam and processing the information signals in the packet satellite communications with demand assigned multiple access technique. Delay versus throughput as a function of traffic parameters with several service termination probability can be derived via mathematical formulation and the relative differences of transmission delay is also compared.

To search of a new porcine pheromonal odorant for biostimulation control system technologies to offer a potentially useful and practical way to improve reproductive efficiency in livestock species, the two dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models between physicochemical parameters as descriptors of 2-cyclohexyloxytetrahydrofurane (A), 2-phenoxytetrahydrofurane (B) analogues and binding affinity constant ($p[Od.]_{50}$) for porcine odorant-binding protein (pOBP) as receptor of pig pheromones were derived and disscused. The statistical quality of the optimized 2D-QSAR model is good ($r^{2}=0.964$) and accounts for 96.4% of the variance in the binding affinity constants. It was found that the binding affinity constants were dependent upon the optimal value, $(SL)_{opt.}=1.418$ of substituent lipole (SL) in molecules. Therefore, the SL constant was very important factor for binding affinity.
