  • The portable hydraulic turbine we previously developed for open channels comprises an axial flow runner with an appended collection device and a diffuser section. The output power of this hydraulic turbine was improved by catching and accelerating an open-channel water flow using the kinetic energy of the water. This study aimed to further improve the performance of the hydraulic turbine. Using numerical analysis, we examined the performances and flow fields of a single runner and a composite body consisting of the runner and collection device by varying the airfoil and number of blades. Consequently, the maximum values of input power coefficient of the Runner D composite body with two blades (which adopts the MEL031 airfoil and alters the blade angle) are equivalent to those of the composite body with two blades (MEL021 airfoil). We found that the Runner D composite body has the highest turbine efficiency and thus the largest power coefficient. Furthermore, the performance of the Runner D composite body calculated from the numerical analysis was verified experimentally in an open-channel water flow test.

  • 본 논문은 미국 차세대 디지털 케이블 방송 표준 규격인 오픈케이블($OpenCable^{TM}$)의 수신제한 모듈인 CableCard의 Physical Layer를 SystemC의 TLM(Transaction Level Modeling)과 RTL(Register-Transfer Level) 모델링 기법으로 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 설계한 CableCard의 Physical Layer는 PCMCIA Interface, Command Inteface 그리고 MPEG-2 TS Interface 로 구성된다. CableCard가 전원이 인가될 때, 카드 초기화를 위하여 동작하는 PCMCIA 인터페이스는 16 비트 PC 카드 SRAM 타입으로 2MByte Memory와 100ns access time으로 동작할 수 있게 설계하였다. PCMCIA 카드 초기화 동작이 완료된 후, CableCard의 기능을 수행하기 위하여 두 개의 논리적 인터페이스가 정의되는데 하나는 MPEG-2 TS 인터페이스이고, 다른 하나는 호스트(셋톱박스)와 모듈 사이의 명령어들을 전달하는 명령어 인터페이스(Command Interface)이다. 명령어 인터페이스(Command Interface)는 셋톱박스의 CPU와 통신하기 위한 1KByte의 Data Channel과 OOB(Out-Of-Band) 통신을 위한 4KByte의 Extended Channel 로 구성되고, 최대 20Mbits/s까지 동작한다. 그리고 MPEG-2 TS는 100Mbits/s까지 동작을 수행할 수 있게 설계하였다. 설계한 코드를 실행한 후, Cadence사의 SimVision을 통해서 타이밍 시뮬레이션을 검증하였다.

  • Under the Chapter 1, Article 3(Protection of Rights and Interests of Viewers) of the Broadcasting Act, the viewers should be able to participate in decision-making with regard to planning, programming, or production of broadcast programs. For this, the public service broadcasting, KBS is operating two kinds of system such as 'viewer-evaluation program' and 'viewer-participation program' that televises the broadcasting programs directly produced by viewers. This study presented several improvement measures by analyzing the contents of viewer-participation programs televised through the of KBS, so KBS could work as an open public platform in which the people could freely express their own thinking, ideology, opinions, and ideas.

  • In this paper, we introduce satellite communication for new wireless disaster network to be built on the basis of amateur radio HR (HAM Radio) as a wireless package system, and channel environments of a D2D terminal that tries to connect and communicate with the wireless disaster network. In this disaster network, we propose a LOS component ratio based adaptive channel modeling approach to accurately estimate a variety of channels whose the D2D terminal could have and smoothly transfer to the level of multimedia data based on the Okumura-Hata channel model. As a result of computer simulation, performance of the proposed method was compared with the that of Okumura-Hata model of open area and urban area model and we were confirmed that there is a gain of BER performance from the results of the computer simulation.

  • This paper focuses on solving co-channel interference (CCI) issues arising in the open subscriber group (OSG) mode of heterogeneous networks (HetNets). Considering a general framework consisting of arbitrary number of picocells within a macro cell, where the inter-user interference (IUI) is the main CCI to macro user equipments (UEs), while the the inter-cell interference (ICI) is the major CCI to pico UEs. In this paper, three IA based transceiver design schemes are proposed. For macro cell, we uniformly use block diagonalization (BD) scheme to eliminate the IUI. And for picocells, three IA schemes are proposed to mitigate the ICI. The first scheme, named as zero forcing IA (ZF-IA) scheme, aligns the inter picocell interference onto an arbitrary sub-space of the cross-tier interference using ZF scheme. Considering the channel state information (CSI) of the desired channel of pico UEs, the second scheme, named as optimal desired sub-channel selected IA (ODC-IA) scheme, aligns the inter picocell interference onto a certain sub-space of the cross-tier interference, which guarantees the largest channel gain of the desired signal of pico UEs. The third IA scheme, named as maximum cross-tier interference selected IA (MI-IA) scheme, is designed for the system with less receive antennas. The inter picocell interference is aligned onto the space of the strongest cross-tier interference and only the interference on this space is nullified. The complexity analysis and simulations show that the proposed transceiver design schemes outperform the existing IA schemes in the OSG mode of HetNets, and the MI-IA scheme reduces the requirement of the receive antennas number with lower complexity.
