현재 전 세계적으로 물 부족 현상이 대두되는 가운데 그 양상은 더욱 심해지고 있다. 이러한 물 부족 현상의 악화됨에 따라 수자원 관리의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 효율적인 수자원의 관리를 위해서는 근본적으로 물 순환 과정인 수문현상의 이해가 필요하다. 수문현상은 증발산, 강우, 침투, 유출 등의 일련의 과정을 말하는 것으로 이를 해석하기 위해서는 많은 수문 인자들의 정확한 관측이 필요하다. 특히 지표와 대기간의 에너지 및 물의 교환에 대한 중요한 요소인 토양수분은 수문현상의 해석을 위해 필수적인 인자이다. 따라서 수문현상의 정확한 해석을 위해서는 토양수분의 관측이 필요하며, 이에 대한 많은 관측이 이루어져 왔다. 최근에는 원격탐사의 기술의 발달로 토양수분의 관측에 대해 시공간적인 장점을 가지는 인공위성을 이용하고 있다. 토양수분관측에 있어서 많은 위성들이 이용되고 있으나 대다수의 경우 발사시점이 오래되었으며, 현재 2009년 ESA (European Space Agency) 의 지구관측 미션의 일환으로 발사된 SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) 가 이용기간이 남아있다. 단, SMOS는 한국을 포함한 동아시아 및 유럽지역에 대해 RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) 의 전파방해로 우리나라의 경우 토양수분 Product의 직접적인 이용이 어려운 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SMOS의 Product인 밝기온도를 이용하여 복원알고리즘을 통해 토양수분을 복원하였다. 또한 복원된 알고리즘의 정확성을 평가하기 위해 한반도의 지점관측된 토양수분 데이터를 이용하여 본 알고리즘을 검증하였다.

인공위성을 이용한 토양수분의 측정은, 범지구적인 물순환 분석에 있어서, 수문학적인 인자들의 시공간적인 변화를 예측, 분석하는데 있어 가장 효율적인 방법으로 제안되어왔다. 현재 국/내 외 적으로 사용하는 토양수분 위성은 Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS), Advanced SCATerometer (ASCAT)이 많이 사용되고 있으며, 더불어 일본에서 최근에 발사 된 Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiomter 2 (AMSR2) 센서를 통한 토양수분도 데이터도 적극 활용 되고 있다. 각 위성은 토양수분을 산출 하는 알고리즘, 파장대 그리고 위성 통과 시간 등이 각기 다르므로, 이러한 위성의 데이터를 사용하기 위해서는 지점 데이터와의 검증이 필수적으로 필요하게 된다. 이에따라 본 연구에서는 위성 데이터와 Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS)와의 비교를 통해 각 위성데이터의 동아시아 지역에서의 효용성을 평가하였다. 동아시아의 건조한 지역에서는 SMOS가 가장 좋은 토양수분 데이터 결과를 보여주었으며, 다른 많은 지역에서는 ASCAT이 우세한 결과를 보여주었다. 하지만 한반도 지역의 특정 지역에서는 AMSR2의 토양수분 값이 ASCAT을 뛰어넘는 좋은 결과를 보여주는 결과가 도출되었다. 추가적으로, SMOS의 경우 Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)의 영향으로 한반도지역 토양수분을 측정하는 것에는 많은 무리가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

In multihop routed ad hoc networks, the conventional store-and-forward delivery has been used. However, we may ask a question: "Is the store-and-forward delivery still the best?" This paper presents a pipeline-through MAC (PT-MAC) protocol for ad hoc networks, in which nodes have two 3-channel interfaces in order to use limited radio resources efficiently and improve network performance. The proposed protocol reduces end-to-end delay significantly in multihop routed transmission by exploiting a novel pipeline-through technique rather than using the conventional store-and-forward. This results in improved network performance without increasing control overhead. Our extensive performance study shows that the proposed PT-MAC shows 20-40 percent shorter end-to-end delay and 25-55 percent better goodput compared to the IEEE 802.11 DCF with two 3-channel interfaces.

This paper presents a user preference description for graphics contents that is developed in the process of the MPEG-21 DIA(Digital Item Adaptation) standard. The description scheme in this paper is proposed by the authors and adopted in the current AM (Adaptation Model) document of the MPEG-21 DIA. The goal of MPEG-21 standard is providing a multimedia framework that Provides augmented and transparent use of digital contents across various networks and terminals fur the life cycle of digital contents. DI (Digital Item) is a standardized basic unit of digital contents for transaction in the scope of MPEG-21. DIA contains both media resources and metadata including rights information.

The interference evaluation methods and criteria between the analogue TV/FM signals for BSS(Broadcasting Satellite Service) plans and the associated feeder link plans were established in WARC(World Administrative Radio Conference)-77 and 88. However, it should be applied the different interference evaluation methods and criteria of the digital TV signals from those of the analogue TV/FM signals. In this paper, the interference evaluation methods and criteria between the digital TV signals and the analogue TV/FM signals were analyzed. And also, the effects of the interference from the digital signals for Koreasat-1 into the analogue TV/FM signals for Japanese broadcasting satellite were evaluated. The amounts of EIRP reduction in the transmitting space stations were calculated to meet the interference criteria. The results showed that the digital BSS networks including Koreasat-1 would share the limited resources with the analogue BSS networks.

Multipath routing technique is recognized as one of the effective approaches to improve the reliability of data forwarding. However, the traditional multipath routing focuses only on how many paths are needed to ensure a desired reliability. For this purpose, the protocols construct additional paths and thus cause significant energy consumption. These problems have motivated the study for the energy-efficient and reliable data forwarding. Thus, this paper proposes an energy-efficient concurrent multipath routing protocol with a small number of paths based on interaction between paths. The interaction between paths helps to reinforce the multipath reliability by making efficient use of resources. The protocol selects several nodes located in the radio overlapped area between a pair of paths as bridge nodes for the path-interaction. In order to operate the bridge node efficiently, when the transmission failure has detected by overhearing at each path, it performs recovery transmission to recover the path failure. Simulation results show that proposed protocol is superior to the existing multipath protocols in terms of energy consumption and delivery reliability.

In order to efficiently utilize limited radio resources, resource allocation schemes in OFDMA-based wireless networks have gained intensive attention recently. Instead of improving the throughput performance, the utility is adopted as the metric for resource allocation, which provides reasonable methods to build up the relationship between user experience and various quality-of-service (QoS) metrics. After formulating the optimization problem by using a weighted bipartite graph, a modified bipartite matching method is proposed to find a suboptimal solution for the resource allocation problem in OFDMA-based wireless systems with feasible computational complexity. Finally, simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The Korean government is building several futuristic cities, ubiquitous City (u-City), with the latest information technology (IT) infrastructure and "ubiquitous" environment. In the "u-City", Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) will be one of the important services. This study proposed a traffic responsive urban traffic control system applicable in those u-City, using RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology to get traffic information. And, we proposed a predictive control model using the real time traffic information achieved from the proposed system. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed system and model.

Wireless Sensor Networks "WSN" can be implemented in a wide range of applications. Some of these have unpredictable behavior, such as disaster or intrusion monitoring. Sudden large bursting amounts of data can increase traffic and degrade the WSN's performance as well as energy resources. In this work we propose an adjustment of radio transmission range where more or less nodes can be part of the neighborhood area and collaborate in retransmission. As simulation results prove, such adjustment based on traffic can benefit to balance network lifetime.
