Positioning accuracy by the Global Positioning System (GPS) is of great concern in a variety of research tasks. It is limited due to error sources such as ionospheric effect, orbital uncertainty, antenna phase center variation, signal multipath, and tropospheric influence. In this study, the tropospheric influence, primarily due to water vapour inhomogeneity, on GPS positioning height is investigated. The data collected by the GPS receivers along with co-located surface meteorological instruments in 2003 are utilized. The GPS receivers are established as continuously operating reference stations by the Ministry of the Interior (MOI), Central Weather Bureau (CWB), and Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) of Taiwan, and International GNSS Service (IGS). The total number of GPS receivers is 21. The surface meteorological measurements include temperature, pressure, and humidity. They are introduced to GPS data processing with 24 troposphere parameters for the station heights, which are compared with those obtained without a priori knowledge of surface meteorological measurements. The results suggest that surface meteorological measurements have an expected impact on the GPS height. The daily correction maximum with the meteorological effect may be as large as 9.3 mm for the cases of concern.

A rapid development and a wide use of the Internet have expanded a network environment. Further, the network environment has become more complex due to a simple and convenient network connection and various services of the Internet. However, the Internet has been constantly exposed to the danger of various network attacks such as a virus, a hacking, a system intrusion, a system manager authority acquisition, an intrusion cover-up and the like. As a result, a network security technology such as a virus vaccine, a firewall, an integrated security management, an intrusion detection system, and the like are required in order to handle the security problems of Internet. Accordingly, a router, which is a key component of the Internet, controls a data packet flow in a network and determines an optimal path thereof so as to reach an appropriate destination. An error of the router or an attack against the router can damage an entire network. This paper relates to a method for RSMS (router security management system) for secure networking based on a security policy. Security router provides functions of a packet filtering, an authentication, an access control, an intrusion analysis and an audit trail in a kernel region. Security policy has the definition of security function against a network intrusion.

Layered manufacturing(LM) is emerging as a new technology that enables the fabrication of three dimensional heterogeneous objects such as Multi-materials and Functionally Gradient Materials (FGMs). Among various types of heterogeneous objects, more attention has recently paid on the fabrication of FGMs because of their potentials in engineering applications. The necessary steps for LM fabrication of FGMs include representation and process planning of material information inside an FGM. This paper introduces a new process planning algorithm that takes into account the processing of material information. The detailed tasks are discretization (i.e., decomposition-based approximation of volume fraction), orientation (build direction selection), and adaptive slicing of heterogeneous objects. In particular, this paper focuses on the discretization process that converts all of the material information inside an FGM into material features like geometric features. It is thus possible to choose an optimal build direction among various pre-selected ones by approximately estimating build time. This is because total build time depends on the complexity of features. This discretization process also allows adaptive slicing of heterogeneous objects to minimize surface finish and material composition error. In addition, tool path planning can be simplified into fill pattern generation. Specific examples are shown to illustrate the overall procedure.

WiFi Direct (WD) is a state of the art technology for a Device-to-Device (D2D) communication in 802.11 networks. The performance of the WD system can be significantly affected by some key factors such as the type of application, specifications of MAC and PHY layer parameters, and surrounding environment etc. It is, therefore, important to develop a system model that takes these factors into account. In this paper, we focus on investigating the design parameters of the PHY layer that could maximize the efficiency of the WD 802.11 system. For this purpose, a basic theoretical model is formulated for a WD network under a 2x2 Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) TGn channel B model. The design level parameters such as input symbol rate and antenna spacing, as well as the effects of the environment, are thoroughly examined in terms of path gain, spectral density, outage probability and Packet Error Rate (PER). Thereafter, a novel adaptive algorithm is proposed to choose optimal parameters in accordance with the Quality of Experience (QoE) for a targeted application. The simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the standard method thereby achieving an optimal performance in an adaptive manner.

The co-channel digital radio-relay system improves effectively the use of radio frequency allocations by transmitting signals separately on both orthogonal allocations, and thereby not only the total transmission capacity of frequency band but also its bandwidth effciency are almost doubled, compared tothe interleaved digital radio-relay system. Therefore, the study on the development and application of the con-channel scheme is of importance, for the efficient use of limited frequency bnad. In this paper, we derived the eqations for calculating fade margin as a function of path length as well as error performance in terms of the outage probability for co-channel digital radio-relay system below 10GHz. And, simulation was given to demonstrate how to apply those equations to the real situation.

A 6-bit MMIC digital attenuator applicable to X-band TR module has been developed by using $0.5{\mu}m$GaAs pHEMT processes. The Switched-T attenuator scheme and the switched-path attenuator scheme were adopted to obtain low insertion loss and small phase variation, respectively. Resistors and transmission lines are optimized to achieve the digital attenuator with high attenuation accuracy and small phase variation. The digital attenuator has RMS error of 0.4dB, resolution of 0.5dB and dynamic range of 31.5dB. The measurement results show that in-out VSWRs are less than 1.5, phase variation is from -7 to +2 degrees and IIP3 is 36.5dBm.

Elasto-plastic finite element analysis of geotechnical boundary value problems necessitate the stress integration for the known strain increments. For the elasto-plastic constitutive model, the stress integration is generally achieved by numerical schemes, because analytical integration is impossible for general strain path. In this case, the accuracy of numerical stress integration has an important role on the overall accuracy of nonlinear finite element solution. In this study, the Sloan's substepping method which is one of explicit integration methods has been adopted and iris applicability has been checked. The unstability and inaccuracy of ifs results initiated from initial stress level were revealed. So. a new modified numerical integration method which employs the basic concept of modified Euler scheme for error control is proposed and accuracy and stability of the solutions are confirmed by triaxial test simulation.

In this paper, the calibration problem of an asynchronous CDMA-based antenna array is studied. A new iterative calibration algorithm for antenna array in the presence of frequency offset error is presented. The algorithm is applicable to a non-linear array and does not require a prior knowledge of the (direction of arrivals) DOAs of the signals of any user, and it only requires the code sequence of a reference user. The algorithm is based on the two step procedures, one for estimating both channel and frequency offset and the other for estimating the unknown array gain and phase. Consequently, estimates of the DOAs, the multi-path impulse response of the reference signal sources, and the carrier frequency offset as well as the calibration of antenna array are provided. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated by means of computer simulations and is verified by using field data measured through a custom-built W-CDMA test-bed.

There are some problems in robot navigations with a single kind of sensor. We propose a system that takes advantages of both CCD camera and ultrasonic sensors for the concerning matter. A coordinate extraction algorithm to avoid obstacles during the navigation is also proposed. We implemented a CCD based vision system at the front part of the vehicle and did experiments to verify the suggested algorithm's availability. From experimental results, the error rate was reduced when a CCD camera was used rather than when only ultrasonic sensors were used. Also we can generate path to avoid those obstacles using the measured values.

The commercial success of a new product is influenced by the time to market. Shorter product leadtimes are of importance in a competitive market. This can be achieved only if the product development process can be realized in a relatively small time period. New cutting inserts are developed by a time consuming trial and error process guided by empirical knowledge of the mechanical cutting process. The effect of previous cutting on chip formation and the surface residual stresses has been studied. The chip formation is not affected much. There is only a minor influence from the residual stress on the surface from tile first cutting on the second pass chip formation. Thus, it is deemed to be sufficient to simulate only the first pass. The influence of the cutting speed and feed on the residual stresses has been computed and verified by the experiments. It is shown that the state of residual stresses in the workpiece increases with the cutting speed. This paper presents experimental results which can be used for evaluating computational models to assure robust solutions. The general finite element code ABAQUS/Standard has been used in the simulations. A quasi-static simulation with adiabatic heating was performed. The path for separating the chip from the workpiece is predetermined. The agreement between measurements and calculation is good considering the simplifications introduced.
