This paper describes the minimum ignition limit voltages for LPG-Air 5.25[Vol$\%$] mixture gas by discharge sparks in radio-frequency limits using RF power supply and IEC type ignition spark apparatus. As a result, the minimum ignition limit voltages is increased in proportional to the rate of increasing of frequency in LPG-Air mixture gas. Especially, the minimum ignition limit voltages increase remarkably between 3[KHz] and 10[KHz]. It is considered that ignition is caused by one discharge until 3[KHz] and, beyond 3[KHz] ignitiof is caused by more than two discharges. The reason is analyzed that energy loss is caused by existing pause interval between discharges. It is considered that the result can be used for not only data for researches and development of intrinsically safe explosion-proof RF machines which are applied tole-equipments and detectors used in dangerous areas but also for datum for its equipment tests.

The railway electromagnetic environment is much more severe than most commercial and domestic environments. There are concerns about electromagnetic emissions from railways and their potential to interfere with the operation of commercial radio service and other equipment. EMC standards for railway applications are referenced as EN 50121 series and these standards describe the measurement method and specify limits for emission. However standard provide precise description of the general aspect of the measurement procedure and requirement of test equipments, making a reliable measurement of the radiated emissions from a train is a problem of balance between available observation time and the measurement time required by the characteristics of the measurement system. This paper focuses on the problem of measurement.

IMO has made AIS and VHF mandatory for international sailing vessels through SOLAS, and korea if mandating specific vessels through the law for safety of vessels and the ship installation technology standards. However, due to various communication equipments and complicated usage method, malfunction occurs, and the response delay to the actual structure signal often causes human accidents. So recently, as a part of GMDSS modernization, maritime communication devices are attempting to interwork and integrate different types of marine communication system in order to construct a next generation maritime communication system. In this paper, we describe a technique to implement the DSC function by interlocking and integrating the AIS device and VHF. We will present the basis for achieving domestic technical standards and standardization through the linking algorithm of the data that can extract the ship information from AIS and utilize it the DSC function of VHF.

DAB(Digital audio broadcasting) is a next generation radio broadcasting system which provides CD quality audio, various data services and superior reception ability when moving. Also, it can show traffic informations and news literally or graphically. In this paper, we design and fabricate the DAB tuner for ITS service that follows Eureka-147 and ETSI 300 401 specifications. This small-sized tuner can be adopted to mny electronic equipments such as a Hi-Fi audio, DVD player, car audio system etc.. The overall performance of the tuner depends on a phase noise of VCO and the sensitivity of the receiving system is influenced by LNA, image rejection filter and channel selection filter. All our measurement results satisfy the specification for a DAB system with the return loss of 9dB, the noise figure of 6dB for both Band 111 and L-band and the sensitivity of -97dBm.

Since July 2006, marine traffic safety management system have been enforced to support the vessels transiting across the coastal area and the vessels coming in and out of ports in southwestern coastal area where heavy traffic density and marine casualties occurred frequently. The marine traffic volume for the marine traffic environmental assessment was measured by the information from RADAR and AIS system in the area. The distributions of marine casualties were analyzed in the main routes and traffic separation schemes during the last five years and the navigational dangerous elements were investigated with the influence of natural environment, the distribution of fisheries and survey questionnaire. Marine accidents of merchant ships have a tendency to decrease gradually but in case of fishing boats, the rate of marine accidents have a contrary results in this area during the last five years. The dangerous elements on navigation appeared to be the dense force from June to August, fisheries activities and the vessels which not follow the compulsory watch on VHF-band radio communication equipments.

D2D (Device-to-Device) communication on an underlying cellular infrastructure which exploits the same spectrum has several advantages such as increased resource utilization and improved cellular coverage. However, D2D communication system needs to cope with ICI (Inter-Cell Interference) and interference between cellular and D2D links. As a result, macro UEs (User Equipments), especially those located near cell edge, will suffer from serious link performance degradation. We propose a novel interference avoidance mechanism assisted by SRN (Shared Relay Node) in this paper. SRN not only performs data re-transmission as a usual Type II relay but also has several features newly defined to avoid interference between cellular and D2D links. In particular, we suggest resource allocation methods based on the SRN for effective interference avoidance, and evaluate their performance through computer simulations.

Recently, there have been many studies on RFID-based SCM. Yet, studies of synchronizing errors caused by tracking logistics information in supply chain, and activating & monitoring RFID infra is still insufficient. Also, there is no case of developing the intelligent SCM system enabling total monitoring and controlling RFID Infra by applying these technologies. Logistics information synchronization based Smart SCM model is intelligent supply chain service model to monitor the status of the RFID equipments in supply chain and the synchronization of the logistics process in each logistics point through one integrated view, as well as to react instantly by providing the information to help the various decision makings, when the emergency occurs. By adopting global logistics standard, RFID related standard specification, EPCIS standard, and SSI middleware platform, this model provides the domestic standard specification.
