When multiple ZigBee wireless personal area networks (WPANs) are in close proximity to each other, contentions and collisions in transmissions will lead to increased packet delays. However, there is no existing study on how delay performance would be affected in a crowded real-life environment where each person walking down a busy street would be wearing a ZigBee WPAN. This letter studies the use of ZigBee WPANs in such a real-life environment for real-time heart beat monitoring. To be pragmatic, we derived a mobility pattern from the analysis of a real-life video trace. Then, we estimated the delay performance from the video trace by combining data collected from ZigBee experiments. The results show that the 300 ms packet delay requirement will not be met for only 11% of the time. When failure occurs, it will last for an average duration of 1.4 s.

Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, its main function being to participate in recognition and adhesion between cells. ICAM-1 is considered closely related to occurrence, development, metastasis and invasion process of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A variety of inflammatory cytokines and stimulus affect its expression through the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-${\kappa}B$) signal transduction pathway. In the initial stage of inflammation, hepatocirrhosis and tumor development, ICAM-1 is expressed differently, and has varied effects on different cells to promote occurrence of malignancy and metastasis. ICAM-1 has diagnostic significance for AFP-negative or suspected HCC, and may be a prognositic significance. It is thus widely used in studies as a biomarker which reflects cancer cells metastasis as well as curative effect of drugs. Many new treatments of HCC may be based on the effects of ICAM-1 on different levels of function.

The Test Signal Method is adopted to analyze the impact of thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) on sub-synchronous oscillation. The results show that the simulation system takes the risk of Sub-synchronous Oscillation (SSO) while the TCSC is operating in the capacitive region. A supplementary excitation damping controller (SEDC) is used to mitigate SSO caused by the TCSC. A new optimization method which is aimed for optimal phase compensation is proposed. This method is realized by using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The simulation results show that the SEDC designed by this method has superior suitability, and that the secure operation scope of the TCSC is greatly increased.

LTE 통신 환경에서 핸드오버 기법은 이동장치가 120km/h 이하의 속도에서 원활한 핸드오버가 이루어진다. 하지만 그 이상의 속도로 이동시, 핸드오버가 지연되거나 실패하고 Ping-pong효과가 발생하는 문제점이 있어 이동장치의 원활한 신호수신을 방해한다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 핸드오버 기법을 이용하여 120Km/h이상의 고속으로 이동하는 고속철도나 자가용에서도 이동장치가 원활한 신호 수신을 할 수 있도록 적절한 중계기에 핸드오버가 이루어지도록 하여 현재 이동장치의 상태를 파악한 뒤 고속, 저속 핸드오버를 상황에 맞게 결정하는 핸드오버 기법을 제안한다.

A study focused on the wives'managerial behavior and their life satisfaction according to wives'stress level ad their coping behavior. The statistical procedures used were percentile mean cronbach's a T-test F-test cluster analysis. Duncan's Multiple Range test. For the purpose the sample were conducted using questionnairs on 548 housewives that lived in seoul. The major findings wee ; 1) The wives's education level of background variables significantly was differentiated from wives' managerial behavior and their life satisfaction respectively. 2) The wives'stress level and their coping behavior respectively was higher than average. from wives'managerial behavior respectively. 4) The variable i.e. wives'stress level wives'coping behavior significantly was differentiate from wives'life satisfaction respectively In conclusion to improve wives'managerial behavior and their life satisfaction this study suggests we have to try to release or decrease wives'stress level and to do the resonable wives'co-ping behavior.

The surface treatment of C-type isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber was carried out by anodic oxidation in 5 wt% $NH_4NO_3$ electrolyte. The changes of fiber surface and carbon fiber/ABS resin composites were characterized by SEM, XPS and mechanical properties test. The oxygen functional groups on the surface, such as hydroxyl (-C-OH), carboxyl (-COOH) groups etc., increased after oxidation. Tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of carbon fiber/ABS composites were also enhanced. However, the impact strength decreased with the improvement of the surface adhesion between CF and matrix.

Underwater sensor accuracy test which measures the detection range and bearing accuracies of sonar simulates sonar transmitting ping and underwater radiating noise of target vessels. In this test, because the position of sonar target is the reference position of test, the sonar target position should be precisely estimated. Hence, this paper suggests to apply USBL algorithm which adopts cross phase spectrum of received sensor signals, and presents its performance by range and bearing estimation simulations. As a result of simulations, suggested algorithm shows good accuracy for underwater sensor accuracy test near 5㏈ SNR.

Despite the advantages offered by multilevel inverters, one of the main drawbacks that prevents their widespread use is their circuit complexity as the number of power switches employed is usually high. This paper presents a new multilevel inverter topology with a considerable reduction in the number of power switches used through the switch-sharing approach. The fact that the proposed inverter applies two bidirectional power switches for sharing among the three phases does not prevent it from producing seven levels in the line-to-line output voltage waveforms. A modified scheme of space vector modulation via the application of virtual voltage vectors is developed to generate the PWM signals of the power switches. The performance of the proposed inverter is investigated through MATLAB/SIMULINK simulations and is practically tested using a laboratory prototype with a DSP-based modulator. The results demonstrate the satisfactory performance of the inverter and verify the effectiveness of the modulation method.

We have developed self-aligned imprint lithography (SAIL) technology, an innovative method for roll-to-roll (R2R) fabrication of electronic devices on flexible plastic substrates. In this paper, we present the first R2R-produced ${\alpha}$-Si TFTs built on a polyimide substrate using the SAIL process, and prove the feasibility of this technology to enable R2R fabrication of flexible display active matrix (AM) backplanes with high precision and throughput.
