In this paper, we propose an efficient policing mechanism for Markov model-based traffic descriptors of VBR MPEG video traffic. A VBR video sequence is described by a set of traffic descriptors using a scene-basedMarkov model to the network for the effective resource allocation and accurate QoS prediction. The networkmonitors the input traffic from the source using a proposed new policing method. for policing the steady statetransition probability of scene states, we define two representative monitoring parameters (mean holding andrecurrence time) for each state. For frame level cell rate policing of each scene state, accumulated average cellrates for the frame types are compared with the model parameters. We propose an exponential bounding functionto accommodate dynanic behaviors during the transient period. Our simulation results show that the proposedpolicing mechanism for Markovian traffic descriptors monitors the sophisticated traffic such as MPEG videoeffectively and well protects network resources from the nalicious or misbehaved traffic.

Soil characteristics along with various container lengths have an important role in the early survival rate and growth of seedlings by influencing the seedling quality. This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of container length and different soil mixtures on the growth of poplar in a greenhouse. Two types of soil, homogeneous vs. heterogeneous, were used along with two container lengths (30 vs. 60 cm). The heterogeneous soil was made by dividing 50% vermiculite from a mixture of 25% vermicompost and 25% nursery soil in volume. For the homogeneous soil, the above three soil types were mixed together. Populus euramericana clone cuttings were planted in late April, and then, the growth height, root collar diameter (RCD) and biomass were measured in August. The height of the poplar was not significantly affected by container length and soil type, but the RCD was significantly affected by soil type. Leaf and root biomass was higher at the long container than at the short container for both soil treatments, but stem biomass was lower at the heterogeneous soil than at the homogeneous soil treatment. Root to shoot biomass ratio was higher at the heterogeneous soil treatment than at the homogeneous soil treatment by 12%. In conclusion, heterogeneous soil along with a long container is suitable to increase the carbon allocation into the root.

In this paper, we suggest the scheme combining long-term feedback and short-term feedback in MIMO multi-user system and analyze its system performance. At the beginning of communication, long-term feedback is fed back to transmitter such as the number of active antennas, constellations, and transmission powers which are determined to satisfy the given target symbol error and target data rate for each user. After this, short-term feedback of active antenna index is fed back periodically Simulation results show the proposed scheme outperforms better than long-term feedback or short-term feedback information scheme.

Because a wireless ad hoc network does not have fixed infrastructure, a call admission control approach researched in a wireless network is not feasible to this network. In this paper, we propose call admission control scheme to support this problem and the burst handoff traffic due to group mobility in a wireless ad hoc network. This scheme is an adaptive guard channel scheme which adapt the number of guard channels in each MBS(mobile base station) according to the current estimate of the potential handoff call rate derived from the number of ongoing calls within the coverage area of an MBS that initiate group handoff in a wireless ad hoc network. Our simulation studies are performed for comparisons of the proposed scheme with the other channel allocation schemes. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme efficiently reduces handoff call blocking probability in wireless ad hoc networks.

Reliability prediction provides a rational basis for design decisions such as the choice between alternative concepts, choice of part quality levels, derating factors to be applied, use of proven versus state-of-the-art techniques, and other factors. For this reasons, reliability prediction is essential functions in developing space systems. The worth of the quantitative expression lies in the information conveyed with the numerical value and the use which is made of that information and reliability prediction should be initiated early in the configuration definition stage to aid in the evaluation of the design and to provide a basis for item reliability allocation (apportionment) and establishing corrective action priorities. Reliability models and predictions are updated when there is a significant change in the item design availability of design details, environmental requirements, stress data, failure rate data, or service use profile. In this paper, the procedure, selection of reliability data and methods for space system reliability prediction is presented.

In this paper, we present an adaptive modulation technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for broadband wireless communications. Also, using improved channel prediction, we enhance the performance of adaptive OFDM in high mobility environments. Adaptive modulation technique has been shown to achieve reliable high-rate data transmission over frequency-selective fading channel when OFDM is employed. This scheme requires the accurate channel information between two stations for a better performance. In an outdoor high mobility environment, most of adaptive OFDM systems have to be given the channel information transmitted from the receiver. Even if it is possible, there is some delay. Moreover, the channel impulse response between two stations is very rapidly varied. If the channel information is obsolete at the time of transmission, then poor system performance will result. In order to solve this problem, we propose adaptive OFDM with improved channel predictor. The proposed bit allocation algorithm has a lower complexity and the proposed scheme mitigates the effect of channel delay. Robust approach is less sensitive to outdated channel information. Performance results show that the proposed scheme can achieve considerable performance enhancement.

To complete the "anywhere" mobile service there should not be shaded areas. However, it is never economical to deploy BS's (Base Stations) in a low population density area due to the low resource utilization. We propose a design technique to install RS's(Relay Stations) which are cheaper than BS's and find the condition in which the proposed technique is acceptible. The proposed design technique aims to allocate the frequency and time resources to RS's to minimize the transmission rate degradation due to interferences between RS's as well as to maximize the parallelism in transmission. We showed by simulation that the proposed technique achieves cost benefits when the expected traffic is less than 20.32 percent of the total BS capacity. The proposed technique is compatible with the IEEE 802.16j, thus can be extended to multi-hop configuration.

본 논문에서는 4K UHD 입력 영상을 실시간으로 부호화하기 위해 적용되는 GOP 단위 또는 IDR 주기 단위의 병렬 부호화 구조를 지원하도록 R-${\lambda}$ 모델 기반의 율 제어 방법을 개선하는 비트 분배(bit allocation) 방법을 제안한다. GOP 단위 또는 IDR 주기 단위의 병렬 부호화기 내에서 율 제어기를 작동시키는 경우, 계층적 B 구조에서 같은 계층에 있는 프레임 간에는 상호간에 얼마만큼의 비트를 소모 하였는지에 대한 정보를 공유 할 수 없기 때문에 기존의 비트 분배 방식으로는 비트 예산(bit budget) 관리가 불가능하다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는, 기존의 R-${\lambda}$ 모델 기반 율 제어 방법을 개선하여 부호화 순서에 의한 시간 순서 방향의 비트 예산 갱신 기반 비트 분배하던 방식으로부터, GOP 마다 비트를 할당한 후 계층적 B 구조에서의 계층이 깊어지는 방향으로 비트 예산을 갱신하여 비트를 분배하는 방식으로 율 배분 방식을 개선하였다. 실험 결과를 통해 R-${\lambda}$ 모델 기반 율 제어의 기존 비트 분배 방식보다 제안 방법에 의한 목표 비트 율 달성 오차가 감소함을 확인하였다.

Streaming video service over wireless and mobile communication networks has received significant interests from both academia and industry recently. Specifically, mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) is capable of providing high data rate and flexible Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, supporting mobile streaming very attractive. However, we need to note that streaming videos can be partially deteriorated in their macroblocks and/or slices owing to errors on OFDMA subcarriers, as we consider that compressed video sequence is generally sensitive to the error-prone channel status of the wireless and mobile network. In this paper, we introduce an OFDMA subcarrier-adaptive mobile streaming server based on cross-layer design. This streaming server system is substantially efficient to reduce the deterioration of streaming video transferred on the subcarriers of low power strength without any modifications of the existing schedulers, packet ordering/reassembly, and subcarrier allocation strategies in the base station.
