In Ubiquitous Society, accurate Location Calculation of user's device is required to achieve the need of users. As the location calculation is processed by ranging between transceivers, if some obstacles exist between transceivers, NLoS(Non-line-of-Sight) components of received signal increase along with the reduction of LoS(Line-of-Sight) components. Therefore the location calculation error will increase due to the NLoS effect. The conventional location calculation algorithm has the original ranging error because there is no transformation of ranging information which degrades the ranging accuracy. The Iterative Calculation method which minimizes the location calculation error relys on accurately identifying NLoS or LoS condition of the tested channel. We employ Kurtosis, Mean Excess Delay and RMS Delay spread of the received signal to identify whether the tested channel is LoS or NLoS firstly. Thereafter, to minimize location calculation error, the proposed Iterative Calculation method iteratively select random range and finds the averaged target location which has high probability. The simulation results confirm the enhancement of the proposed method.

The wavelet transform(WT) has been extensively applied in solving many problems in applied science and engineering following its introduction in early 1980's. The WT analyzes a signal in a changeable frequency range by employing a moving window whereby along time window is used to obtain low frequency information and short time window is used to obtain high frequency information. In this paper, after various fault types in 154 KV transmission system was simulated by using EMTP, and the RMS values by changing Mother wavelet was calculated by applying wavelet transform to the simulated voltage and current signal.

Selecting appropriate G values in flocculator operation is important to produce high quality filter effluent in water treatment plants. However, misunderstanding and misleading of G calculation for the case of having power sources more than one or many paddles with one power source in a flocculation basin sometimes have led to low performance in flocculation. Theoretical analysis confirmed that the total G value in one flocculation unit having power sources more than one or with many paddles is the root-square of the sum of square of individual G value. This analysis also can give a simple calculation method of G value for designers and operators in fields.

In this paper, we propose a text-independent speaker identification algorithm based on VQ(vector quantization) and vowel classification, and its performance is studied and compared with that of a conventional speaker identification algorithm using VQ. The proposed speaker identification algorithm is composed of three processes: vowel segmentation, vowel recognition and average distortion calculation. The vowel segmentation is performed automatlcally using RMS energy, BTR(Back-to-Total cavity volume Ratio)and SFBR(Signed Front-to-Back maximum area Ratio) extracted from input speech signal. If the Input speech signal Is noisy, particularity when the SNR is around 20dB, the proposed speaker identification algorithm performs better than the reference speaker identification algorithm when the correct vowel segmentation is done. The same result is obtained when we use the noisy telephone speech signal as an input, too.

As developing the large-scale offshore wind farm is expected, the preliminary environmental impact assessment is very essential. In this study, the wave hindcast model is verified based on observed data at the coast around Wido which is among the candidate sites for developing the offshore wind farm. In addition, the effect of the wind turbine foundations on wave height is analyzed when total 35 wind turbines including monopile foundations of 5 m in diameter are installed. Calculation result of significant wave height is in good accord with observed data since the RMS error is 0.35 m. Moreover, it is found that the presence of the wind turbine foundations hardly affects wave height as wave damping ratio is less than 1%.

The power loss of the controllable switches in modular multilevel converter (MMC) HVDC transmission systems is an important factor, which can determine the design of the operating junction temperatures. Due to the dc current component, the approximate calculation tool provided by the manufacturer of the switches cannot be used for the losses of the switches in the MMC. Based on the enabled probabilities of each SM in an arm, the current analytical models of the switches can be determined. The average and RMS currents can be obtained from the corresponding current analytical model. Then, the conduction losses can be calculated, and the switching losses of the switches can be estimated according to the upper limit of the switching frequency. Finally, the thermal resistance model of the switches can be utilized, and the junction temperatures can be estimated. A comparison between the calculation and PSCAD simulation results shows that the proposed method is effective for estimating the junction temperatures of the switches in the MMC.

This paper summarizes a development of visualization software for protective engineering in low-voltage power systems. The study is concentrated on the following aspects. First, a software engineering method is applied for designing the object-oriented program. The design and implementation of a Graphic User Interface(GUI) and its integration to a power system framework are developed using object-oriented programming(OOP) in Visual C++. Second, we develop the short circuit analysis module that oriented a low-voltage power system. It is possible to calculate a peak, symmetrical RMS, DC component and asymmetrical fault currents for each time. And it is the first software that can calculate the fault current for single branch of three-phase system. The calculation accuracy is compared with commercial software, and the libraries of low-voltage components are served for convenience use. Third, protective engineering functions are equipped. It is possible to automatically select the circuit breaker which based on the user input characteristics and the fault current calculation and examine the protective coordination. Through the case study, we verified that the developed software can be effectively used to examine the protective engineering in low-voltage power systems.

A package type of SCR (selective catalytic reduction) system that was proposed for removing the $NO_x$ found in flue gas from the small scale of air pollution sources was evaluated. The efficiency of the SCR system is determined by the proper utilization of catalytic media installed inside of the system, and the proper distribution of flow velocity and $NH_3$ concentration in the flue gas is a crucial factor for using the catalytic media. In this study, the distributions of $NH_3$ concentration were estimated under the various arrays and shapes of AIG at the given gas flow condition. The value of RMS (%) in $NH_3$ concentration is 95.3% at co-current flow (at $0^{\circ}$) injection but it is 90.1% at the condition of counter-current flow (at $120^{\circ}$) condition, which implies the counter-current injection is more favorable. By rearranging the $NH_3$ injection flow rates based on the distribution of velocity and $NH_3$ distribution in basic calculation, the value of RMS (%) in $NH_3$ concentration was reduced to 62.8%. The enhanced effect of $NH_3$ mixing by the combined effect of arrays and shapes are complied in the study.
