A fully integrated multistandard multiband CMOS mobile TV tuner with small silicon area and low power consumption is proposed for receiving multiple mobile digital TV signals and FM signal. In order to reduce the silicon area of the multistandard multiband receiver, other RF front-end circuits except LNAs are shared and a local oscillator (LO) signal generation architecture with a single VCO for a frequency synthesizer is proposed. To reduce the low frequency noise and the power consumption, a vertical NPN BJT is used in an analog baseband circuits. The RF tuner IC is implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The RF tuner IC satisfies all specifications for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a sufficient margin and a successful demonstration has been carried out for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a digital demodulator.

현재 가장 각광을 받고 있는 무선기술인 무선랜(Wireless LAN) 기술의 핵심인 매체접속제어 알고리즘의 구현에 관한 연구로서, 모뎀, RF 와 host interface를 제어하는 핵심알고리즘인 MAC을 IEEE 802.11 spec에 제시된 기능을 H/W와 S/W를 이용하여 구현함으로 기존의 상용 무선 AP(Access Point)와 고속의 송수신이 가능한 수준까지를 구현하였다. 실제 구현 시 상용제품을 가지고는 테스트가 불가능하여 모뎀 및 RF 부분만 모들을 사용하여 실제 구현한 모들을 테스트하였다. 또한 실제 구현한 모듈은 채널상의 CRC 및 FCS 에러를 고려하여 설계하였으며, 추후 고속의 무선 랜 시스템 구축에 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

배터리의 제한이 있는 이동통신 단말이 이동통신이 아닌 무선LAN(Local Area Network)또는 고속 무선PAN(Personal Area Network)등의 근거리 무선통신 시스템을 이용하여 주변에 위치한 전력이 풍부한 디바이스의 릴레이 동작을 통해 데이터를 송수신 한다고 가정할 때 단말은 송신거리 감소에 의해서 전력소모를 줄일 수 있다. 하지만 단말 주변에 매우 많은 무선LAN 및 고속 무선PAN시스템이 존재할 경우 자신과 상관없는 패킷을 수신함으로써 또다른 전력소모 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 물리계층에 주파수 오프셋을 이용한 ID를 넣으므로써 불필요한 패킷 수신을 회피하여 전력소모를 줄일 수 있는 방법을 제안하며 이 방법을 이용하였을 때 최적의 물리계층 ID개수를 찾는다.

Waste disposal problem is one of the most important social welfare indicators in urban area, because the volume of waste generated from urban area is remarkable. So far most waste of Seoul has been disposed at landfills. However, this landifill disposal method is confronted with several difficulties in recent. As public concern on environmental problem increases and autonomy system is settled down, local community people of the landfills refuse to receive the waste produced other places any more. It brought reginal confliction problem between waste sending and receiving by refusing to accept waste from certain region. Furthermore, it is difficult to find another place to fill up the waste, while the existing landfiis is reached at the limit in the near future. In terms of environmental aspects landfill method is not the best way to dispose waste. It contaminates the soil and ground/underground water by leaking water containing many serious pollutants as well as offensive oder. In terms of equity, this waste disposal method is not fair. Environmental pollution causes damage to residence near to the landfills, while the waste produced other places. In order to satisfy the equity aspect, the waste generated a region should be disposed within the region. Incineration of Waste has been provided as the alternative. Government plans to construct waste incinerator in every anatomy, so the waste produced by local community is disposed within their local autonomous area. However, the location decision is not easy, since waste incinerator is one of the facilities to the community people. We can not apply the existing location models for this problem, because they show strong NIMBY phenomenon for the location. The location of waste incinerator should be determined very carefully with consideration of various location factors and criteria. This study proposes a methodology for determining the location of the waste incinerators by utilizing GIS, which is a power research tool for location decision where various geographical factors related. We drive the location factors which should be considered in the determination of waste incinerators. They involve environmental, socio-economic, and institutional factors. In first, we eliminate the area which is located within the environmental location criteria such as slope, fault line, distance to river, and then eliminate ares which is conflict with the social and institutional criteria.

본 연구는 송 수신 초음파 센서를 이용하여 CNG 탱크에서의 정밀한 연료량을 측정하기 위한 기초 연구로써 탱크내부 압력 및 초음파 센서의 접촉면 변경에 따른 수신감도를 분석하였다. 실험은 탱크와 센서의 접촉면을 점, 선, 면의 3가지 타입으로 변경하고 탱크 내부의 압력을 0 bar 부터 5 bar까지 1 bar 간격으로 충전하면서 측정을 진행하였다. 실험결과 탱크내부의 압력이 증가함에 따라 초음파 센서의 수신신호 값이 감소하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 탱크와 센서의 접촉면적이 증가할수록 수신 신호 값은 증가하지만, 노이즈 또한 증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 실험 결과 초음파의 투과 특성을 이용하여 탱크내부의 기체 연료량을 측정할 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 센서의 접촉면 변경을 통해 정밀성을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Background: Little is known about interest in faith-based health promotion programs among Asian American populations. Among the Christian denominations, the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) church is known to place a strong doctrinal emphasis on health. Objectives: To understand appropriate ways to develop and implement health promotion programs and to conduct research among Korean American SDAs. Methods: We collaborated with the North American Division of Korean SDA Churches which sponsors annual week-long religious retreats for their church members. We developed and administered a 10-page questionnaire at their 2009 retreat in order to assess socio-demographic and church characteristics, religiosity, perceived relationship between health and religion, and interest and preferences for church-based health promotion programs. Results: Overall, 223 participants completed our survey (123 in Korean and 100 in English). The sample consisted of regular churchgoers who were involved in a variety of helping activities, and many holding leadership positions in their home churches. The vast majority was interested in receiving health information at church (80%) in the form of seminars, cooking classes and workshops (50-60%). Fewer respondents were interested in support groups (27%). Some interests and preferences differed between English and Korean language groups. Conclusion: Korean American SDA church retreat participants from a large geographic area are very interested in receiving health information and promoting health at their churches and can potentially serve as "agents of influence" in their respective communities.

We developed a multicast communication packet radio protocol using a time-sharing tablet system ("wireless token ring") to achieve the efficient exchange of files among packet radio terminals attached to swans. This paper provides an overview of the system and the protocol of the packet communications. The packet device forming the main part of the transceiver developed is the Texas Instruments CC2500. This device consists of one call-up channel and one data transmission channel and could improve error frame correction using FEC (forward error correction) with 34.8 kbps MSK and receiving power of at least -64 dBm (output 1 dBm at distance of 200 m using 3 dBi antenna). A time-sharing framework was determined for the wireless token ring using call sign ordinals to prevent transmission right loss. Tests using eight stations showed that resend requests with the ARQ (automatic repeat request) system are more frequent for a receiving power supply of -62 dBm or less. A wireless token ring system with fixed transmission times is more effective. This communication protocol is useful in cases in which frequency resources are limited; the energy consumed is not dependent on the transmission environment (preset transmission times); multiple terminals are concentrated in a small area; and information (position data and vital data) is shared among terminals under circumstances in which direct communication between a terminal and the center is not possible. The method allows epidemiological predictions of avian influenza infection routes based on vital data and relationships among individual birds based on the network topology recorded by individual terminals. This communication protocol is also expected to have applications in the formation of multiple in vivo micromachines or terminals that are inserted into living organisms.

최근 방송과 통신의 융합 흐름은 방송 영역에서 제공되던 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 초고속 인테넷, 케이블 TV망 그리고 위성 망 등을 통해 실시간으로 전송하는 IPTV 서비스로 변화되고 있다. 그러나 디지털 방송 서비스가 다양한 매체로 확산되면서 서비스 제공자가 사용자들에게 제공하는 IPTV 서비스의 콘텐츠 보안은 기존 방송 시스템에서 제공하는 CAS(Conditional Access System)만을 이용해서는 완벽하게 지원할 수 없다. 이 논문에서는 IPTV 서비스의 콘텐츠 보안 문제를 해결하기 위해 IPTV 시스템을 구성하는 구성 요소 중 수신기(Set-Top BoX, STB)와 스마트카드 사이의 사용자 수신자격을 효율적으로 판별할 수 있는 상호인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 기존 프로토콜에 비해 사용자가 지불하는 채널에 대한 수신자격을 수신기가 올바르게 전송할 수 있도록 서명기반의 해쉬함수를 사용한다. 또한, 제안 프로토콜은 상호인증 과정을 통해 수신기와 스마트카드 사이에서 생성된 세션키를 이용하여 EMM를 암호화한 후 제3자가 서비스를 불법적으로 이용할 수 없도록 한다.
