In order to cope with shadow areas and to extend cell coverage, relay-assisted wireless communication systems have been widely studied. In this paper, we propose a space-frequency(SF) block coded orthogonal frequency division multiple access(OFDMA) transmission system in a relaying multi-path shadow area. The receiving performance of mobile station in a shadow area can be improved by applying SF block code to the recovered signals of multiple relays before re-transmitting them. The simulation result shows that the proposed SF block coded OFDMA transmission system considerably outperforms the conventional single-path OFDMA transmission system.

I intend to seek the shortest path which an aircraft safely flies to its destination through the shadow volume of three dimensional terrain which propagation does not extend. Herein, I propose a method in which a relatively wide shadow volume is divided with a polygon type of block polygon, a path up to the intermediate destination is sought in the divided block polygons according to the weight, and then, the shortest path up to the final destination is sought by repeating courses for seeking a destination again from the adjacent polygon based on the starting point of the intermediate destination within the divided polygon. The shortest path was searched by using the revised algorithms which apply to a critical angle from graph growth algorithms on the shadow volume which propagation on the actual three dimensional terrain does not extend to. The experiment shows that a method proposed in this paper creates effective flying curves.

모바일 컴퓨팅 환경에서 이동성은 등록을 통해 이루어지고 있으며, 이음새 없는(seamless) 이동성을 제공하고자 많은 연구들이 진행되어 있으며, 그 중 방문하고자 하는 네트워크(Foreign Network)에 등록하는 시점을 언제로 하느냐에 따라 크게 다음의 2 가지 방법으로 대별된다. SIP-Registration은 핸드오프가 발생한 이후 등록(AAAF)을 함으로써 통화하는 중에 끊김(disruption)이나 지연(delay)이 발생한다. 이를 개선한 SIP-Shadow-Registration 방법은 핸드오프가 발생하기 이전에 이웃한 모든 노드들$(AAAF_n)$에게 모바일 노드(MN)의 관련 정보를 사전등록(Shadow Registration)하여 핸드오프 이후에 발생하는 끊김이나 지연을 방지하였다. 그러나 SIP-Shadow-Registration은 실제 사용하지 않는 n-2 개의 MN와 관련된 백본 네트워크에 불필요한 데이터 전달 및 관리라는 문제를 야기시킨다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제점들을 개선하고자 사전등록영역(SRR: Shadow Registration Region)을 구성하고 이의 알고리즘을 제안한다. 결과적으로 SIP 기반의 이동성이 필요할 때, 최소한의 사전등록영역을 통해 끊김이나 지연도 방지하고 추가적인 데이터 관리 문제도 해결할 수 있는 효과적인 방법이다.

In this paper, we propose a novel shadow clustering mechanism including a mobility estimation algorithm based on Gauss-Markov mobility model which analyses patterns of moving direction and speed of a mobile terminal respectively and a selection algorithm of the most suitable network for the requirements of mobile terminals. The proposed mechanism makes much less shadow cluster area than that of the legacy methods, and reduces unnecessary resource reservation. It is compared the proposed algorithm with traditional methods under various scenarios.

This study is aimed to improve the quality of image fusion results through shadow effects correction. For this, shadow effects correction algorithm is proposed and visual comparisons have been made to estimate the quality of image fusion results. The following four steps have been performed to improve the image fusion qualify First, the shadow regions of satellite image are precisely located. Subsequently, segmentation of context regions is manually implemented for accurate correction. Next step, to calculate correction factor we compared the context region with the same non-shadow context region. Finally, image fusion is implemented using collected images. The result presented here helps to accurately extract and interpret geo-spatial information from satellite imagery.

This research shows how the perception of digital shadow work varies depending on the user's period of use of digital services in applications, which are key areas of digital services. The purpose of this research is to investigate how the digital shadow work type changes over time. This research adopted a qualitative research method for location-based service "help application" users and examined the change in perception from the app service acceptance stage to the app service continuous use stage with two-times interviews of ten users by a longitudinal research design. This study conducted a longitudinal analysis focusing on how digital shadow work occurs in the application subscription process, exploring phenomenologically how the type changes throughout the process over time.

Background subtraction, which separates moving objects in video sequences, is an essential technology for object recognition and tracking. However, background subtraction methods are often confused by shadow regions and this misclassification of shadow regions disturbs further processes to perceive the shapes or exact positions of moving objects. This paper proposes a method for shadow elimination which is based on shadow modeling by color information and Bayesian classification framework. Also, because of dynamic update of modeling parametres, the proposed method is able to correspond adaptively to illumination changes. Experimental results proved that the proposed method can eliminate shadow regions effectively even for circumstances with varying lighting condition.

In this paper, the shadow detection and reconstruction method are proposed using intrinsic image, which does not change the essential characteristics under the influence of various illuminance, and multi-scale gamma correction. The shadow detection was estimated by the pixel change information between a grayscale and an intrinsic image of the color image, and the brightness of the image were adjusted by gamma correction in the shadow restoration process. Multi-scale gamma correction is performed for each channel of a color image due to the fact that the saturation can be changed by nonlinear adjustment to individual pixel values. Multi-scale gamma values are estimated based on the information of the crossed edge between shadows and non-shadowed regions in the color image, as a result, the shadows are reconstructed by correcting different region features with multi-scale gamma values. Experimental results show that the proposed method effectively reconstructs shadows in a single natural image.

In nowadays, Covid-19 has transformed patterns of consumers' behavior into a non-face-to-face mode. As the patterns of consumption have been digitalized, it has become a daily routine for consumers who perform so-called shadow work, which involves unpaid jobs that they have to do by themselves. In mobile grocery service context, consumers' shadow work could lead to shopping avoidance as well as switching toward other shopping channels. Thus, this study is to examine how consumers' perception of shadow work affect mobile shopping avoidance and switching intention toward other shopping channels. This study collected 283 survey data from online respondents who have experience on subscription services for ordering groceries in online. We also tested our research model by using partial least squares. Based on our results, this study has found that the perception of shadow work had a positive effect on mobile shopping avoidance as well as switching intention. We expect that our findings could contribute to relevant research on shadow work and suggest practical implications for digital platforms dealing with subscription business models

There are various high-performance algorithms in the area of the existing VDSs (vehicle detection systems). However, they requires a large amount of computational time-complexity and their systems generally are very expensive and consumes high-power. This paper proposes real-time traffic information detection algorithm that can be applied to low-cost, low-power, and open development platform such as Android. This algorithm uses a vehicle's sub-shadow to set ROI(region of interest) and to count vehicles using a location of the sub-shadow and the vehicle. The proposed algorithm is able to count the vehicles per each roads and each directions separately. The experiment result show that the detection rate for going-up vehicles is 94.1% and that for going-down vehicles is 97.1%. These results are close to or surpasses 95%, the detection rate of commercial loop detectors.
