본 연구는 전기적 방법인 선대원통형 전극구조에서 발생되는 비열플라즈마를 이용하여 반응장치내에서의 NO의 제거율을 측정하고, 또 방전시의 방전 Image와 수평방향과 수직방향의 신호강도를 ICCD카메라를 이용하여 관측하였다. NO입자의 제거율은 NO농도가 낮을수록 높아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 수평방향의 신호강도와 수직방향의 신호강도는 NO농도가 낮을수록 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 방전에 의해 발생되는 비열플라즈마를 이용했을때의 교류방전시의 Image를 관측함으로써 NO입자의 방전 메카니즘을 보다 명확하게 규명하고자 하였다.

In this paper, we propose an Internet of Things (IoT) platform for ocean observation buoys. The proposed system consists of various sensor modules, a gateway, and a remote monitoring site. In order to integrate sensor modules with various communications interfaces, we propose a controller area network (CAN)-based sensor data packet and a protocol for the gateway. The proposed scheme supports the registration and management of sensor modules so as to make it easier for the buoy system to manage various sensor modules. Also, in order to extend communication coverage between ocean observation buoys and the monitoring site, we implement a multi-hop relay network based on a mesh network that can provide greater communication coverage than conventional buoy systems. In addition, we verify the operation of the implemented multi-hop relay network by measuring the received signal strength indication between buoy nodes and by observing the collected data from the deployed buoy systems via our monitoring site.

In a multi-hop wireless network, connectivity is determined by the link that is established by the receiving signal strength computed by subtracting the path loss from the transmission power. Two path loss models are commonly used in research, namely two-ray ground and shadow fading, which determine the receiving signal strength and affect the link quality. Link quality is one of the key factors that affect network performance. In general, network performance improves with better link quality in a wireless network. In this study, we measure the network connectivity and performance in a shadow fading path loss model, and our observation shows that both are severely degraded in this path loss model. To improve network performance, we propose power control schemes utilizing link quality to identify the set of nodes required to adjust the transmission power in order to improve the network throughput in both homogeneous and heterogeneous multi-hop wireless networks. Numerical studies to evaluate the proposed schemes are presented and compared.

Many applications in the area of location-based services and personal navigation require nowadays the location determination of a user not only in outdoor environment but also indoor. To locate a person or object in a building, systems that use either infrared, ultrasonic or radio signals, and visible light for optical tracking have been developed. The use of WiFi for location determination has the advantage that no transmitters or receivers have to be installed in the building like in the case of infrared and ultrasonic based location systems. WiFi positioning technology adopts IEEE802.11x standard, by observing the radio signals from access points installed inside a building. These access points can be found nowadays in our daily environment, e.g. in many office buildings, public spaces and in urban areas. The principle of operation of location determination using WiFi signals is based on the measurement of the signal strengths to the surrounding available access points at a mobile terminal (e.g. PDA, notebook PC). An estimate of the location of the terminal is then obtained on the basis of these measurements and a signal propagation model inside the building. The signal propagation model can be obtained using simulations or with prior calibration measurements at known locations in an offline phase. The most common location determination approach is based on signal propagation patterns, namely WiFi fingerprinting. In this paper the underlying technology is briefly reviewed followed by an investigation of two WiFi positioning systems. Testing of the system is performed in two localization test beds, one at the Vienna University of Technology and the second at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. First test showed that the trajectory of a moving user could be obtained with a standard deviation of about ${\pm}$ 3 m.

The present study uses the GOES IR brightness temperature to examine the temporal and spatial variability of cloud activity over the region $25^{\circ}N-45^{\circ}N$, $105^{\circ}E-135^{\circ}E$ and analyzes the coherence of eastern Asian summer season rainfall in Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model. Time-longitude diagram of the time period from June to July 2005 shows a signal of eastward propagation in the WRF model and convective index derived from GOES IR data. The rain streaks in time-latitude diagram reveal coherence during the experiment period. Diurnal and synoptic scales are evident in the power spectrum of the time series of convective index and WRF rainfall. The diurnal cycle of early morning rainfall in the WRF model agrees with GOES IR data in the Korean Peninsula, but the afternoon convection observed by satellite observation in China is not consistent with the WRF rainfall which is represented at the dawn. Although there are errors in strength and timing of convection, the model predicts a coherent tendency of rainfall occurrence during summer season.

이 논문의 목적은 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어인 OPNET Modeler Wireless Suite를 이용하여 WiFi (IEEE 802.11g)와 WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e)를 가상 무선망으로 모델링 후 종단간 패킷 통계를 시뮬레이션하여 그 특성을 분석한 연구이다. 국내외 무선망에 대한 시뮬레이션이 가능한 툴인 Remcom's Wireless InSite Real Time (RT) 모듈, WinProp: W-LAN, Fixed WiMAX, Mobile WiMAX, SMI 시스템은 무선 전파 신호 세기 분석에 비중을 두었고 이러한 무선 전파 신호 세기로 데이터 전송률을 고려할 수 있도록 설계되었다. 그러나 우리는 이들 시뮬레이션 툴(들)의 특성과 달리 다른 관점으로 본 연구를 접근하였다. 즉, 무선 전파 신호 세기 분석이 아닌 유무선 통합망을 기반으로 한 종단간 가상망 모델링이 가능하고 각 구간(예: 무선사용자, 기지국 또는 AP, HTTP 서버)마다 얼마만큼의 패킷이 전달되었는지를 시각적으로 분석할 수 있는 OPNET Modeler Wireless Suite를 활용한 연구로 접근하였다. 왜냐하면 패킷 통계는 무선서비스 성능 매트릭 중 하나의 지표로 종단간 중요한 QoS 분석 척도가 되기 때문이다. 특히나 WiMAX와 같이 QoS를 보장하는 무선사용자에겐 패킷 통계 지표는 더더욱 필수적인 항목임에 틀림이 없다. OPNET Modeler Wireless Suite로 가상 무선망을 실제에 가깝게 모델링 후 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 우리는 흥미로운 결과를 찾아낼 수 있었고 그 실험/관측결과를 효율적이고 다각적으로 보여줄 수 있었다.

We have been measuring $CH_4$ flux in a rice paddy in Gimje using the eddy covariance method since July 2011. In order to measure the fast fluctuations of $CH_4$ concentration, an innovative LI-7700 open-path laser spectrometer is used. This high-precision, low power, light weight, low maintenance sensor enables us to operate it on a continuous and long-term basis. One particular feature, among other things, is the self-cleaning lower mirror which decreases maintenance requirements while ensuring more robust, continuous, high-quality dataset. Its cleaning is initiated at user-specified time intervals or a signal strength threshold, and its status is recorded as a diagnostic index. We have noticed that the operation of LI-7700 at Gimje site is quite challenging particularly due to its frequent mirror cleaning requirement and the associated sensitivity of the instrument. In this presentation, we present some field observation data regarding the mirror cleaning and their analysis, thereby suggesting the pertinent operation options for high-quality, maximum data retrieval in the field.

Wall obstruction is the main factor leading to the non-line of sight (NLoS) error of indoor localization based on received signal strength indicator (RSSI). Modeling and correcting the path loss of the signals through the wall will improve the accuracy of RSSI localization. Based on electromagnetic wave propagation theory, the reflection and transmission process of wireless signals propagation through the wall is analyzed. The path loss of signals through wall is deduced based on power loss and RSSI definition, and the theoretical model of path loss of signals through wall is proposed. In view of electromagnetic characteristic parameters of the theoretical model usually cannot be accurately obtained, the statistical model of NLoS error caused by the signals through the wall is presented based on the log-distance path loss model to solve the parameters. Combining the statistical model and theoretical model, a hybrid model of path loss of signals through wall is proposed. Based on the empirical values of electromagnetic characteristic parameters of the concrete wall, the effect of each electromagnetic characteristic parameters on path loss is analyzed, and the theoretical model of regional path loss of signals through the wall is established. The statistical model and hybrid model of regional path loss of signals through wall are established by RSSI observation experiments, respectively. The hybrid model can solve the problem of path loss when the material of wall is unknown. The results show that the hybrid model can better express the actual trend of the regional path loss and maintain the pass loss continuity of adjacent areas. The validity of the hybrid model is verified by inverse computation of the RSSI of the extended region, and the calculated RSSI is basically consistent with the measured RSSI. The hybrid model can be used to forecast regional path loss of signals through the wall.
