Objective: Bilateral movement training is an effective method for upper extremity rehabilitation of stroke. An approach to induce bilateral movement through functional electrical stimulation is attempted. The purpose of this study is to develop an EMG-triggered functional electrical stimulation device for upper extremity bilateral movement training in stroke patients and test its feasibility. Design: Feasibility and Pilot study design. Methods: We assessed muscle activation and kinematic data of the affected and unaffected upper extremities of a stroke patient during wrist flexion and extension with and without the device. Wireless EMG was used to evaluate muscle activity, and 12 3D infrared cameras were used to evaluate kinematic data. Results: We developed an EMG-triggered functional electrical stimulation device to enable bilateral arm training in stroke patients. A system for controlling functional electrical stimulation with signals received through a 2-channel EMG sensor was developed. The device consists of an EMG sensing unit, a functional electrical stimulation unit, and a control unit. There was asymmetry of movement between the two sides during wrist flexion and extension. With the device, the asymmetry was lowest at 60% of the threshold of the unaffected side. Conclusions: In this study, we developed an EMG-triggered FES device, and the pilot study result showed that the device reduces asymmetry.

This paper proposes a new measurement method for the effective measurement of the 99% occupied bandwidth (OBW) at monitoring stations. Although the OBW measurement of radio signal is recommended by the International Telecommunication Union Radio (ITU-R) with several methods, there still does not exist a clear measurement recommendation or standard for terrestrial DTV signal on-air environment. Modified adjacent channel power ratio (MACPR), which can be applied to 8-VSB (Vestigial Side Band) DTV (Digital Television) signal, is herein defined to verify the results of measurements obtained using the proposed measurement method. MACPR is a proper measuring parameter for determining the measuring area of a monitoring station. From measurement results obtained in real field environment, it has been found that the OBW of 8-VSB DTV signal can be effectively measured in areas where the MACPR value is over 35 dB and when the measurements are repeated more than 600 times in the same reception site. It also has been verified that measured results are within an error range of +/-0.1% compared to results directly obtained at a transmission station. It is expected that the proposed method is able to be employed in order to determine the proper location of monitoring station and provide a reliable OBW measurement procedure for 8-VSB DTV signal on-air environment.

Power analysis attack on cryptographic hardware device aims to study the power consumption while performing operations using secrets keys. Power analysis is a form of side channel attack which allow an attacker to compute the key encryption from algorithm using Simple Power Analysis (SPA), Differential Power Analysis (DPA) or Correlation Power Analysis (CPA). The theoretical weaknesses in algorithms or leaked informations from physical implementation of a cryptosystem are usually used to break the system. This paper describes how power analysis work and we provide an overview of countermeasures against power analysis attacks.

암호 알고리즘이 탑재된 환경에서 암호 알고리즘의 이론적 안전성이 고려되어도 환경에 의존한 부가적 정보를 활용하는 부채널 분석에 대한 안전성이 검토되어야 한다. 최근까지 부채널 분석에 대한 안전성을 고려한 대응기법으로 마스킹 기법이 적용되었으나, 이와는 상반된 개념인 하드웨어 DPL(Dual-rail with Precharge Logic) 기법을 응용한 균일한 해밍웨이트를 제공하는 소프트웨어 AES(Advanced Encryption Standard)가 제안되었다. 최근, 소프트웨어 기반 블록암호에 대해 고차 마스킹 부채널 대응법의 비효율성으로 새로운 방법에 대한 다양한 시도가 되고 있으며, 그 중 균일한 해밍웨이트를 제공하는 표현 방법이 효율적이고 안전한 새로운 대응법으로 검토되어지고 있다. 하지만, 논문에서는 균일한 해밍웨이트 데이터 표현방법 기반 부채널 대응법을 해독하는 차분전력분석 방법을 소개한다. 실험을 통해, AES 128비트 키 중 일부분이 분석됨을 확인하였다. 이는 공격자가 테이블 변환 정보를 활용할 수 있다는 다소 강력한 가정하에 실험하였기 때문이다. 앞선 가정 하에 안전성을 제공하기 위해서는 차후 추가적 대응기법이 고려되어야 한다.

In this paper, we propose a scalar multiplication method and its hardware architecture which is resistant to SPA while its computation speed is faster than Colon's. There were SPA-resistant scalar multiplication method which has performance problem. Due to this reason, the research about an efficient SPA-resistant scalar multiplication is one of important topics. The proposed architecture resists to SPA and is faster than Colon's method under the assumption that Colon's and the proposed method use same fmite field arithmetic units(multiplier and inverter). With n-bit scalar multiple, the computation cycle of the proposed is 2n·(Inversion cycle)+3(Aultiplication cycle).

The CRT-RSA cryptosystem is very vulnerable to fault insertion attacks in which an attacker can extract the secret prime factors p, q of modulus N by inserting an error during the computational operation on the cryptographic chip. In this paper, after implementing the CRT-RSA cryptosystem, we try to extract the secret key embedded in commercial microcontroller using optical injection tools such as laser beam or camera flash. As a result, we make sure that the commercial microcontroller is very vulnerable to fault insertion attacks using laser beam and camera flash, and can apply the prime factorization attack on CRT-RSA Cryptosystem.

At FDTC'05 and CISC-W'10, the authors showed that if they decrease the number of rounds of AES and Triple-DES by using the fault injections, it is possible to recover the secret key of the target algorithms, respectively. In this paper, we propose a key recovery attack on HMAC by using the main idea of these attacks. This attack is applicable to HMAC based on MD-family hash functions and can recover the secret key with the negligible computational complexity. Particularly, the attack result on HMAC-SHA-2 is the first known key recovery attack result on this algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a fault injection attack on stream cipher A5/3 used in GSM. The fault assumption of this attack is based on that of fault injection attacks proposed in FDTC'05 and CISC-W'10. This attack is applicable to A5/3 supporting 64/128-bit session key, respectively, and can recover the session key by using a small number of fault injections. These works are the first known key recovery attack results on A5/3.

The block cipher HIGHT is designed suitable for low-resource hardware implementation. It established as the TTA standard and ISO/IEC 18033-3 standard. In this paper, we propose a differentail fault attack against the block cipher HIGHT. In the proposed attack, we assume that an attacker is possible to inject a random byte fault in the input value of the 28-th round. This attack can recover the secret key by using the differential property between the original ciphertext and fault cipher text pairs. Using 7 and 12 error, our attack recover secret key within a few second with success probability 87% and 51%, respectively.

Many experimental results shows that RSA-CRT algorithm can be broken by fault analysis attacks. We analyzed the previous fault attacks and their countermeasures on RSA-CRT algorithm and found an weakness of the countermeasure proposed by Abid and Wang. Based on these analyses, we propose a new countermeasure which uses both double exponentiation and fault infective computation method. The proposed method efficiently computes a fault verification information using double exponentiation. And, it is designed to resist simple power analysis attack and (N-1) attack.
