Location management schemes dealing with location information of moving terminals play an important role in the personal communications systems (PCS). Since the location management involves heavy signaling traffics to update the location information, reducing the location update cost becomes a critical research issue. This paper proposes a location management scheme which reduces the location update cost by employing the hierarchical structure in PCS environment. The paper also develops analytical models to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme. The results obtained from the performance evaluation shows that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional schemes in terms of the location update rates. Also, the difference in the performance becomes larger as the size of the location area (LA) becomes smaller and as the residual time of the mobile user becomes smaller.

In this paper, new simulator based on EMTP was introduced for simulation of underground power cable system. The newly developed simulator was named as Power Cable Simulator(PCS), and it can simulate the various normal conditions including sheath circulating current. It is also easier to use than conventional software, such as EMTP and CabSim, because all the data for calculating the cable parameters are stored in a database(DB) within a PCS. In addition, the accuracy of PCS is also proved through the comparison between the calculation and simulation of sheath current.

3kW photovoltaic (PV) systems and data acquisition system are constructed for performance analysis of PV system at field demonstration test center (FDTC) of Korea. As climatic and irradiation conditions are varied, the performance characteristics of PV system are collected and analyzed in data acquisition system. From these results, the performances of gird-connected power conditioning system (PCS) fur PV system have been evaluated and analyzed. Furthermore, performance indices of grid-connected PCS e.g. output power, efficiency, loss factor, and the other index at the site are reviewed.

In this paper, a simple control method for two-stage utility grid-connected photovoltaic power conditioning systems (PCS) is proposed. This approach enables maximum power point (MPP) tracking control with post-stage inverter current information instead of calculating solar array power, which significantly simplifies the controller and the sensor. Furthermore, there is no feedback loop in the pre-stage converter to control the solar array voltage or current because the MPP tracker drives the converter switch duty cycle. This simple PCS control strategy can reduce the cost and size, and can be utilized with a low cost digital processor. For verification of the proposed control strategy, a 2.5kW two-stage photovoltaic grid-connected PCS hardware which consists of a boost converter cascaded with a single-phase inverter was built and tested.

This paper presents the development and testing of a power conditioning system(PCS) for application to a 100kW Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell(MCFC) generation system. The MCFC generation system is a part of a four year government funded research project that began in 2001. This paper presents the results of various tests and performance verification of the 100kW PCS using a DC power system that simulates the DC output of the MCFC fuel cell. Performance of the DC/DC, DC/AC converters were verified, and basic control functions such as grid connection, protection and characteristics of each components were tested. The tests were performed under light load and rated load conditions to verify the operation efficiency, power quality effects, and stability of the PCS.

Purpose: We report upon a web-based system for Patterns of Care Study (PCS) devised for Korean radiation oncology. This PCS was designed to establish standard tools for clinical quality assurance, to determine basic parameters for radiation oncology processes, to offer a solid system for cooperative clinical studies and a useful standard database for comparisons with other national databases. Materials and Methods: The system consisted of a main server with two back-ups in other locations. The program uses a Linux operating system and a MySQL database. Cancers with high frequencies in radiotherapy departments in Korea from 1998 to 1999 were chosen to have a developmental priority. Results: The web-based clinical PCS .system for radiotherapy in www.pcs.re.kr was developed in early 2003 for cancers of the breast, rectum, esophagus, larynx and lung, and for brain metastasis. The total number of PCS study items exceeded one thousand. Our PCS system features user-friendliness, double entry checking, data security, encryption, hard disc mirroring, double back-up, and statistical analysis. Alphanumeric data can be input as well as image data. In addition, programs were constructed for IRB submission, random sampling of data, and departmental structure. Conclusion: For the first time in the field of PCS, we have developed a web-based system and associated working programs. With this system, we can gather sample data in a short period and thus save, cost, effort and time. Data audits should be peformed to validate input data. We propose that this system should be considered as a standard method for PCS or similar types of data collection systems.

A hybrid MIMO(Multi Input Multi Output) antenna which is operating both a monopole and a IFA(Inverted F Antenna) is designed. It's applied Vlade(Vertical lade) technique to reduce antenna space, and a diagonally fed MIMO antenna is designed on the bare board for the data communication. Return losses due to variables of antenna length are simulated for the design. Antenna for the hexa-frequency band of LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA is designed and implemented. This antenna is satisfied 3:1 VSWR over the whole design band by the measurement of return loss. And average gains and efficiencies were -3.67 ~ -2.53dBi and 42.06 ~ 55.84% for LTE700/CDMA/GSM frequency band, -3.27 ~ -1.21dBi and 47.08 ~ 75.6% for DCS/PCS/WCDMA frequency band. The isolation between 2 antenna that is one of important factors for the MIMO system was measured good performance as -8.14 ~ -25.77dB over the whole service band.

In the information age, the rapid development of information technology provides people with an enriching experience yet also causes them harm because of information security (IS) issues. The IS of smartphones faces great challenges. Although many studies on IS awareness have been conducted, most of them have focused on PCs and do not consider the security issues of smartphones. In this study, we focus on those factors that affect IS awareness for both PCs and smartphones. We also analyze the differences in the impacts of certain factors on PCs and smartphones based on the proposed research model. The results are summarized as follows. First, the understanding of security technique, understanding of IS threat, and IS education have significant impacts on IS awareness for PCs and smartphones, while IS intention has a significant impact on IS awareness for PCs but not for smartphones. Moreover, IS policy has no significant impact on IS awareness. Second, PCs and smartphones show no significant differences in IS awareness, IS threat, and IS intention, but show significant differences in understanding of security technique, IS education, and IS policy.
