Floating LiDAR systems (FLSs) are used in many countries because they are easier to install than stationary weather towers, have low maintenance costs, and can be installed in deep sea areas. However, FLSs are rarely used in Korea due to a lack of clear evaluation criteria to verify the reliability and uncertainty of their measurements. This study is the first to verify the reliability of FLSs in Korea with one-year simultaneous observation of six lidar systems - two fixed and four floating systems - in sea areas of Gunsan and Yeonggwang. The reliability of FLSs measurement data was verified by comparison between fixed and floating systems. Moreover, differences between existing wind resource maps and the data observed from the six points were analyzed and wind resource maps were calibrated. The results show a return rate of more than 95 % of the observed data and strong correlations between fixed and floating systems (average R2 of 0.977). Additionally, errors in wind speed predictions to produce a wind resource map could be significantly reduced from 5.7 % to 0.6 % after calibrations with the observation data.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated WLAN / UWB communication antennas operating at 3.3 [GHz] and 5 [GHz] bands in order to effectively use the high-speed communication network system that improved antenna miniaturization, gain and radiation pattern. Microstrip patch antennas were chosen to improve the bandwidth. The slot width, length, and transmission line width were calculated using the theoretical formula for each step. Simulation results show that the return loss is -14.053 [dB] at 3.3 [GHz] and -13.118 [dB] at 5 [GHz]. The gain showed a value of 2.479 [dBi] at 3.3 [GHz] and a value of 3.317 [dBi] at 5 [GHz]. After optimizing it with the CST Microwave Studio 2014 program, which can be 3D-designed, Based on these results, we investigated the performance of antennas by measuring their characteristics. In recent years, WLAN, which is a variety of wireless technologies that are continuously developing, and UWB, which is a communication technology which is increasing in frequency band due to an increase in demand of the technology users, is used for a high speed wireless communication system. Communication seems to be possible.

This study examined the effects of the contact position and structure of the test probe on its signal transmission characteristics. The contact position in the operating of the test probe was considered and then divided into the plunger inner contact and barrel inlet contact. The high frequency performance of the test probes was investigated for both contact positions. The signal transmission characteristics of the test probes with the structures of double, single, and out-spring was also analyzed. The insertion and return losses were calculated using the HFSS and the characteristic impedance of the test probes was analyzed using a Q3D simulation. The insertion loss of the barrel inlet contact was smaller than that of the plunger inner contact. The contact position of the test probe may result in a change in the high frequency performance. The out-spring probe has better frequency characteristics at -1 dB insertion loss and -10 dB return loss. The double probe and single probe have the same characteristic impedance with $30.8{\Omega}$. On the other hand, the out-spring probe has an impedance of $47.1{\Omega}$. The out-spring probe is closer to $50{\Omega}$ than the other probes and then shows higher signal transmission characteristics. The out-spring probe has superior high-frequency characteristics and is expected to be suitable for high-speed applications.

Skyline query is a scheme for exploring objects that are suitable for user preferences based on multiple attributes of objects. Existing skyline queries return search results as batch processing, but the need for real-time search results has increased with the advent of interactive apps or mobile environments. Online algorithm for Skyline improves the return speed of objects to explore preferred objects in real time. However, the object navigation process requires unnecessary navigation time due to repeated comparative operations. This paper proposes a Pre-processing Online Algorithm for Skyline Query (POA) to eliminate unnecessary search time in Online Algorithm exploration techniques and provide the results of skyline queries in real time. Proposed techniques use the concept of range-limiting to existing Online Algorithm to perform pretreatment and then eliminate repetitive rediscovering regions first. POAs showed improvement in standard distributions, bias distributions, positive correlations, and negative correlations of discrete data sets compared to Online Algorithm. The POAs used in this paper improve navigation performance by minimizing comparison targets for Online Algorithm, which will be a new criterion for rapid service to users in the face of increasing use of mobile devices.

This paper examines the pecuniary effects stemming from insider trading in the equities of firms targeted for acquisition. Illegal exchanges by those having advantageous information are found to result in excessive returns to stockholders of the sought firms. However, unusual market activities are not typical immediately subsequent to the illegal trading date, suggesting that nonpublic information is synthesized by market mechanisms with sufficient speed so that others cannot profit by imitating the better informed traders. The obtained evidence does not support the contention that insider trading on nonpublic information harms the outsider stockholders of involved firms.

This paper applies a income mobility method to technology inequality using conditional human capital stock and shows their empirical results during the 1980 to 2000. There are several interesting empirical results coming out this analysis. Among the results, the paper turns out that world technology inequality mobility measurement is significantly higher for rapid formation of human capital stock countries than for slow formation of human capital stock countries. This paper, therefore, suggests that technology policy need to focus on improving the public education structure to recover the rate of return to human capital investment and to speed up technology development and deployment in Korea.

To cope with exhaust gas regulation, Diesel engine applied to electronic control system. As it accurately regulated the injected fuel mass and the fuel efficiency and the output are increased but the noise and the vibration are decreased. In order to keep the performance of Electronic Diesel Control System, it is important to accurately control the fuel pressure. However, when the regulator of fuel pressure is not controlled properly, the failure phenomenons(starting failure, staring delay, accelerated failure, engine mismatch et al.) occur because the fuel pressure is not stabilize. In this study, effects on a fuel pressure, engine rotating speed according to the control rate of fuel-pressure regulator are investigated in order to analyzed the performance variation with failure of fuel-pressure regulator. As a result, when the control rate of a fuel-pressure regulator is 4%~6% lower than that of standard condition, the variation of engine's rpm and return fuel flow is increased, and the abnormal condition was occurred. Besides, it is possible to diagnose the failures on fuel-pressure regulator under these conditions.

In this paper, a low-loss wideband waveguide transducer is proposed for millimeter-wave communication and radar applications. A conventional E-plane probe transducer is generally designed using thin and flexible substrate at millimeter-wave frequencies, considering the very small waveguide size. However, it results in serious performance degradation caused by the bending of the substrate. In order to alleviate this problem and provide a reliable performance, we propose an extended E-plane probe transducer where the probe substrate is extended to and fix ed in the slit area formed in the waveguide wall. It is fabricated using $127{\mu}m$-thick substrate with dielectric constant of 2.2. The measurement in the back-to-hack configuration shows the excellent insertion loss of 1.35 dB (${\pm}0.35dB$) including the loss of 3 cm-long thru waveguide and return loss better than 13.8 dB over entire W-band (75-110 GHz). Therefore, it can be effectively applied for millimeter-wave high-speed communications and high-sensitivity radars.

The dispersion of recycled particulates in the complex coastal terrain containing Kangnung city, Korea was investigated using a three-dimensional non-hydrostatic numerical model and lagrangian particle model (or random walk model). The results show that particulates at the surface of the city that float to the top of thermal internal boundary layer (TIBL) are then transported along the eastern slope of the mountains with the passage of sea breeze and nearly reach the top of the mountains. Those particulates then disperse eastward at this upper level over the coastal sea and finally spread out over the open sea. Total suspended particulate (TSP) concentration near the surface of Kangnung city is very low. At night, synoptic scale westerly winds intensify due to the combined effect of the synoptic scale wind and land breeze descending the eastern slope of the mountains toward the coast and further seaward. This increase in speed causes development of internal gravity waves and a hydraulic jump up to a height of about 1km above the surface over the city. Particulate matter near the top of the mountains also descends the eastern slope of the mountains during the day, reaching the central city area and merges near the surface inside the nocturnal surface inversion layer (NSIL) with a maximum ground level concentration of TSP occurring at 0300 LST. Some particulates were dispersed following the propagation area of internal gravity waves and others in the NSIL are transported eastward to the coastal sea surface, aided by the land breeze. The following morning, particulates dispersed over the coastal sea from the previous night, tend to return to the coastal city of Kangnung with the sea breeze, developing a recycling process and combine with emitted surface particulates during the morning. These processes result in much higher TSP concentration. In the late morning, those particulates float to the top of the TIBL by the intrusion of the sea breeze and the ground level TSP concentration in the city subsequently decreases.

The purpose of this paper is to propose the modeling of multiagent based SCM and implement the prototype in the Internet environment. SCM process follows the supply chain operations reference (SCOR) model which has been suggested by Supply Chain Counsil. SCOR model has been positioned to become the industry standard for describing and improving operational process in SCM. Five basic processes, plan, source, matte, deliver and return are defined in the SCOR model, through which a company establishes its supply chain competitive objectives. A supply chain is a world wide network of suppliers, factories, warehouses, distribution centers and retailers through which raw materials are acquired, transformed or manufactured and delivered to customers by autonomous or semiautonomous process. With the pressure from the higher standard of customer compliance, a frequent model change, product complexity and globalization, the combination of supply chain process with an advanced infrastructure in terms of multiagent systems have been highly required. Since SCM is fundamentally concerned with coherence among multiple decision makers, a multiagent framework based on explicit communication between constituent agents such as suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors is a natural choice. Multiagent framework is defined to perform different activities within a supply chain. Dynamic and changing functions of supply chain can be dealt with multi-agent by cooperating with other agents. In the areas of inventory management, remote diagnostics, communications with field workers, order fulfillment including tracking and monitoring, stock visibility, real-time shop floor data collection, asset tracking and warehousing, customer-centric supply chain can be applied and implemented utilizing multiagent. In this paper, for the order processing event between the buyer and seller relationship, multiagent were defined corresponding to the SCOR process. A prototype system was developed and implemented on the actual TCP/IP environment for the purchase order processing event. The implementation result assures that multiagent based SCM enhances the speed, visibility, proactiveness and responsiveness of activities in the supply chain.
