Enhancing the performance of maritime wireless communication has been highlighted by the issue of cell planning in the sea area because of lack of an appropriate Propagation Loss Model (PLM). To resolve the cell planning issue in vast sea areas, it was essential to develop the (PLM) matching the intended sea area. However, there were considerable gaps between the prediction of legacy PLMs and field measurement in propagation loss and there was a need to develop the adjusted PLM (A-PLM). Therefore, cell planning was performed on this adjusted model, including modification of the base station's location, altitude, and antenna azimuth to meet the quality objectives. Furthermore, in order to verify the availability of the cell planning, Communication Service Quality Monitoring System (CS-QMS) was developed in the LTE-Maritime project to collect LTE signal quality information from the onboard equipment at regular intervals and to ensure that the service quality was high enough to satisfy the goals in each designated grid. As a result of verification, the success rate of RSRP was 95.7% for the intensive management zone (IMZ) and 96.4% for the interested zone (IZ), respectively.

그리드 컴퓨팅 기술은 이용하여 이종의 분산 자원들을 묶어서 사용할 수 있게 해 준다. 최근의 그리드는 이기종 자원간의 상호 호환성 증대를 위하여 웹 서비스 기술을 도입하여, OGSA와 WSFR 표준을 정의하였다. 그에 따라 그리드 자원과 그 위에서 동작하는 작업들은 웹 서비스의 형태로 구현되고 관리된다. Globus Toolkit은 이 표준들을 구현한 미들웨어로 그리드 연구에서 가장 널리 활용되고 있다. 서비스가 자원을 효율적으로 사용하면서 서비스 성능을 유지하기 위해서는 서비스가 원하는 시점에 원하는 양의 자원을 제공 받을 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위해서 유휴자원을 찾는 기능과 동적으로 자원에 서비스를 설치하는 기능이 반드시 필요하다. 그러나 기존의 Globus Toolkit은 이런 기능을 제공하지 않는다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Globus Toolkit에 동적 서비스 설치 기능을 추가하고 그것을 관리할 수 있는 도어 서비스를 구현하여. 동적 자원 제공 기능이 가능하도륵 하였다.

Because of the burgeoning demand of the energy, the countries are finding sustainable solutions for these emerging challenges. Demand Side Management is playing a significant role in managing the demand with an aim to support the electrical grid during the peak hours. However, advancement in controls and communication technologies, the aggregators are appearing as a third party entity in implementing demand response program. In this paper, a detailed mathematical framework is discussed in which the aggregator acts as an energy service provider between the utility and the consumers, and facilitate the consumers to actively participate in demand side management by introducing the new concept of demand reduction bidding (DRB) under constrained direct load control. Paper also presented an algorithm for the proposed framework and demonstrated the efficacy of the algorithm by considering few case studies and concluded with simulation results and discussions.

For action selection as well as learning, simple associations between stimulus and response have been employed in most of literatures. But, for a successful task accomplishment, it is required that an animat can learn and express behavioral sequences. In this paper, we propose a novel action-selection-mechanism to deal with sequential behaviors. For this, we define behavioral motivation as a primitive node for action selection, and then hierarchically construct a network with behavioral motivations. The vertical path of the network represents behavioral sequences. Here, such a tree for our proposed ASM can be newly generated and/or updated, whenever a new sequential behaviors is learned. To show the validity of our proposed ASM, three 2-D grid world simulations will be illustrated.

This Paper is to find out a solution for the full-coverage algorithm requiring the real-time processing such as mobile home service robots and vacuum cleaner robots. Previous methods are used by adopting based grid approach method. They used lots of sensors, a high speed CPU, expensive ranger sensors and huge memory. Besides, most full-coverage algorithms should have a map before obstacle avoidance. However, if a robot able to recognize the tangent vector of obstacles, it is able to bring the same result with less sensors and simplified hardware. Therefore, this study suggests a topological based approach and a local obstacle voidance method using a few of PSD sensors and ultra sonic sensors. The simulation results are presented to prove its applicability.

Microgrids (MGs) are typically comprised of distributed generators (DGs) including renewable energy sources (RESs), storage devices and controllable loads, which can operate in either interconnected or isolated mode from the main distribution grid. This paper introduces a novel dynamic programming (DP) approach to MG optimization which takes into consideration the coordination of energy supply in terms of heat and electricity. The DP method has been applied successfully to several cases in power system operations. In this paper, a special emphasis is placed on the uncontrollability of RESs, the constraints of DGs, and the application of demand response (DR) programs such as directed load control (DLC), interruptible/curtaillable (I/C) service, and/or demand-side bidding (DSB) in the deregulated market. Finally, in order to illustrate the optimization results, this approach is applied to a couple of examples of MGs in a certain configuration. The results also show the maximum profit that can be achieved.

그리드 컴퓨팅 시스템은 광범위한 지역에 분산된 고성능 자원, 대용량 정보 및 혁신적인 애플리케이션 등을 네트워크로 연결하여 마치 단일 컴퓨터를 사용하는 것처럼 자원을 상호공유하고 이용할 수 있도록 지원한다. 광범위 분산 컴퓨팅 시스템(wide area distributed computing systems)인 그리드 역시 분산 컴퓨팅 시스템과 같이 각 자원의 결함발생 가능성이 존재한다. 그리드 컴퓨팅 시스템에서도 결함은 작업수행에 있어서 치명적일 수 있기 때문에 결함 포용 기능은 필수적인 요소이다. 하지만 그리드 컴퓨팅 환경을 제공하는 글로버스(globus) 미들웨어에는 결함 포용 기능이 포함되어 있지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 그리드 컴퓨팅 시스템에서 QoS(quality of service)을 고려하여 프로세스, 프로세서, 네트워크 결함을 정의하고, 정의된 결함이 발생할 경우 결함을 탐지하고 해결하는 방법을 제안한다.

Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) can inject or absorb real and reactive power to or from a power system at a very fast rate on a repetitive basis. These characteristics make the application of SMES ideal for transmission grid control and stability enhancement. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the SMES model and scheme to control the active and reactive power through the power electronic device. Furthermore, an optimal priority scheme is proposed for the combination of active and reactive power control to be able to stabilize power transient swings.

Power line communication (PLC) is one of the major communication technologies in smart grid since it combines good communication capability with easy and simple deployment. As a power network can be modeled as a graph, we propose a vertex coloring based slot reuse scheduling in the time division multiple access (TDMA) period for PLCs. Our objective is to minimize the number of assigned time slots, while satisfying the quality of service (QoS) requirement of each station. Since the scheduling problem is NP-hard, we propose an efficient heuristic scheduling, which consists of repeated vertex coloring and slot reuse improvement algorithms. The simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithm significantly reduces the total number of time slots.
