International Telecommunication Union(ITU), recommended a propagation prediction models that can be applied to a various propagation environments that many services have been established in the field of broadcasting and telecommunications using ITU-R. Each propagation prediction models are revised with the complement procedures of an expected difference of channel environment and prepared for a standard of a propagation prediction. In this research, it is possible to realized a practical propagation prediction in each transmitting station for a broadcasting environments of ITU-R Rec. P.1546-3 model, so called the point-to-area, using supplementary parameters of the transmitting station specification.

Problems such as a limited frequency resource and interference between adjacent bands have been continuously raised because of rapidly developing wireless technology and communication service. In order to solve that problem, government has been developed and operating the Spectrum Management Intelligent System(SMIS). This paper compares the results simulated by SMIS with the ATDI and the Matlab coded provided by ITU-R for verification of SMIS operating for the public interests. The Recommendation ITU-R P.526, P.1546, and P.1812 among the propagation model loaded in SMIS were chosen because of the relation to the broadcasting service. The comparison and analysis result shows that the outputs derived by SMIS has the small error of less than 1 dB. This research could be utilized for the policy establishment and R&D for the frequency allocation and the interference between adjacent bands.

Recently, the digital television transition from analog television to digital television has been progressing in terrestrial broadcasting. As a result of the DTV transition, additional reassignments and deployments of TV White spaces (TVWS) caused by co-channel interference (CCI) were needed. In this paper, we investigate the TVWS caused by CCI using Longley-Rice and ITU-R P.1546 propagation model, which are the most widely-used propagation model. In addition, we analyze the service coverage radius and CCI radius according to the height of transmitter antenna and transmitting power. The results show that the ratios of CCI radius to service coverage radius in Longley-Rice and ITU-R P.1546 propagation model are about 2.54 and 2.07, respectively.

For the efficient use of the insufficient frequency resources, a precise prediction of field strength based on various propagation environments should be set up to design of radio stations with reliable transmit power and service coverage. Therefore, many countries have tried to secure the propagation models suitable for their each geographical environments, and also, some models like BCAST were developed by Korea, but these models give the different results compared to measured values. In this paper, based on the measurements of DTV broadcasting services in domestic rural area, analysis and comparison of ITU-R P.1546 and BCAST models provide errors between measured and predicted values, and some points for improving SMI system has been proposed. As a result, P.1546 model provides the valid predicted data similar to measured data, but BCAST model has some problems of large deviation and higher prediction to measured data. In future, these problems and fading loss due to a forest or group of trees, and reflection loss due to a lake or sea need to be studied carefully.

In this paper, using the Rec. ITU-R P.1546 explaining a propagation prediction model in the VHF and UHF bands, we propose the analytical methodology for calculating the service distance and field strength for analogue and digital TV receivers. From the derived formulation of the receiver field strength, some computation results are presented and discussed in terms of the equivalent level of service caused by analogue to digital TV conversion. The suggested method is also applicable to the analysis of frequency coordination or compatibility from unwanted signal in VHF and UHF bands.

In this paper, we have been developed the software in order to ostinato for spill over for TV broadcasting signals between Korea and Japan and analyzed those signals using APD curve. In Busan, we have been measured channel of Japan TV broadcasting signals during 9 months from February 2006 to October 2006. That system has been controled and translated the measured data to remote-control place. Finally it has computation and compared in the APD curve using ITU-R P.1546.

With the rapid development of wireless communication at VHF and UHF bands, there is an increasing need for the reliable propagation prediction tools. Therefore, the different propagation models that have been developed in many countries as well as korea has been trying to secure a model suitable for their geographical area but then it is giving us a different result when we compared it to measured values. In this paper, based on the measurements of DTV broadcasting services in domestic urban area, analysis and comparison of ITU-R P.1546 and BCAST models provide errors between measured and predicted values, and some points for improving SMI system has been proposed. As a result, P.1546 model provides the valid predicted data similar to measured data, but BCAST model has some problems of large deviation and higher prediction to measured data. In future, these problems and diffractions due to high buildings need to be studied further.

We have investigated core-levels of ZnO thin films at the interface with the graphene on Cu foil using in-situ X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). Spectral evolution of C 1s, Zn 2p, and O 1s are observed in real time during RF sputtering deposition. We found binding energy (BE) shifts of Zn 2p and 'Zn-O' state of O 1s depending on ZnO film thickness. Core-levels BE shifts of ZnO will be discussed on the basis of electron transfer at the interface and it may have an important role in the electronic transport property of the ZnO/graphene-based electronic device.

원활한 방송 서비스를 제공하고 손쉬운 방송망 구축을 위해서 가장 중요한 것은 서비스 하 고자 하는 주파수 대역과 환경에 맞는 전파 모델을 선택하는 것이다. 적절한 전파 모델을 선택하여 수신 전계 강도를 정확하게 예상함으로써 효율적인 방송망을 설계할 수 있는 것이다. 방송망 주파수 대역에서 전파 분석 시 널리 이용되고 있는 모델은 ITU-R 권고안 P.1546 모델이다. 이 모델은 기존의 Okumura 나 Hata 모델처럼 측정을 기반으로 하여, 송신단 높이, 수신단 높이, 주파수, 거리, 시간율, 공간율 들을 고려하여 완성한 점대 영역 경로 손실 예측 모델이다. 측정을 기반으로 완성된 경로 손실 모델이기 때문에 실제 환경에 적용하기 위해서는 전계강도 예측 지역의 수신 환경 특성을 반영한 보정값을 더해줘야 한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 ITU-R 연구 3그룹은 지형 프로파일에 기반한 새로운 모델들을 개발하였다. 송, 수신단 사이의 지형 데이터가 고도화되면서 좀 더 정밀한 송, 수신단 사이의 지형 프로파일을 추출해 낼 수 있으며 이는 정확한 전계강도 예측을 가능하게 하였다. 이에 연구 3그룹은 고도화된 디지털 지형 데이터를 이용하여 자유 공간에서 경로 손실, 지형에 의한 회절 손실, 대류권 산란 손실 그리고 ducting 현상을 반영하여 전계강도를 산출해 내는 ITU-R P.1812 모델을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 우리는 ITU-R 권고안 P.1812를 분석 구현하고 기존의 대표 모델인 P.1546 모델과의 비교 분석을 시도하였다.

By using the radio propagation prediction of Rec. ITU-R P.1546, geographic information system, and S-I plane, we presented the methodology of interference analysis based on the minimum coupling loss, and also suggested the local coordinate system for calculating azimuth and elevation angles between the victim receiver and the interferer for an arbitrary antenna pattern. To check the presented algorithm, the map with the land-sea mixed area was taken for the given area of $80{\times}60[km^2]$ as real geography information. Field strength, path profile, and protection ratio with maximum allowable interference level have been illustrated for radar and fixed wireless system for the assumed frequency. In addition interference power of the victim receiver was calculated asa function of azimuth and elevation angles of the interferer. The developed methodology of interference analysis in the VHF and UHF bands can be actually applied to assess interoperability as well as compatibility in the civil or military applications.
