It is known that human saliva includes various kinds of salivaru proteins that show genetic polymorphism. Withrespect to salivary protein polymorphism, this study was conducted on 160 healthy Koreans between the ages of 20 and 29 chosen randomly : their parotid slaiva was collected, freeze-dried, and horizontally electrophoresed over acid-urea starch gel. Aluminum lactate-lactic acid was also used as buffer solution. The gel was stained with amidoblack 10B/1% acetic acid solution, and then destained with 0.5M H2SO4 solution. Accordingly, the parotid middle-band protein(Pm) identified, and its phenotypes and gene frequency were obtained. The obtined results were as follows : 1. The phenotypes of parotid middle band protein(Pm) observed in parotid saliva of the 160 Koreans were Pm(+) in 91 people (56.9%) and Pm(-) in 69 people (43.1%) 2. The gene frequency of Pm+ was 0.343, and that of Pm-waw 0.657. 3. The gene frequency of parotid middle band protein (Pm) obtained from Korean's parotid saliva was midway between that of Japanese and Chinese.

In this work, a new method to obtain the effective ground conductivity value in the middle frequency band where the informations of soil characteristics are insufficient was proposed. The proposed method obtained the effective ground conductivity values with the measured field strength from sea reference stations and general attenuation model in the middle frequency band. In addition, the proposed method used statistical method to minimize the error between the measurements and the predictions. Then, the effective ground conductivity in Korea peninsular was obtained by using the proposed method. Finally, it was verified that the effective ground conductivity using the proposed method is useful to predict electric field strength in the middle frequency band.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the polymorphism in parotid middle-band protein(Pm) of the patients with diabetes mellitus. Saliva from the parotid glands was collected from 60 healthy Korean who were live in Kwan-ju and from 33 diabetes mellitus patients who had more than 140mg/dl of fasting blood sugar for on week. In the saliva collected from parotid glands, Pm was analyzed to evaluate the distribution of phenotype using acid-urea starch gel elecrophores is The following results were obtained : 1. The phenotypes of parotid middle band protein(Pm) observed in parotid saliva of the control group(60 people) were Pm(+) in 38 people (63.3%) and Pm(-) in 22 people (36.7%). The gene frequency of Pm+ was0.394, and that of Pm- was 0.606. 2. The phenotypes of parotid middle band protein(Pm) observed in parotid saliva of the diabetes mellitus patient group(33 patients) were Pm(+) n 21 patients(63.6%) and Pm(-) in 12 patients (36.4%). The gene frequency of Pm+ was 0.397, and that of Pm- was 0.693 3. Pm dose not have significant differences between phenotypes on both the control group and the diabetes mellitus patient group.

To predict the system coverage in the middle frequency(MF) band, it is required to know the antenna efficiency at a base station. However, calculating the accurate efficiency is difficult since the efficiency may change according to the area where the antenna is installed. Thus, this paper proposes a method to obtain the antenna efficiency of a base station in the MF band from the measurement. This method uses the measured field strengths and the attenuation model in the MF band. Therefore, an attenuation model which is used in the proposed method is presented at first. Then, the process of the proposed method is followed using detailed explanations. Finally, antenna efficiencies of base stations which are currently operating are obtained by applying the proposed method and the usefulness of the obtained results are verified by comparing with ideal efficiencies.

In this research, how the evaluation of the spacial image influenced by the environmental friendly elements included in the visual information, and how the selection of the sound changed depending on the characteristics of spatial image by the 40 subjects were carried out. Vast tracts of green land and the waterfront were highly preferred and impressive than the other spaces. The green music, signal with water sound and bird chirping sound were highly scored. In the frequency characteristics of the factors, the first factor was artificial sound(high at the low frequency band), the second was natural sound(uniform at all frequency band) and the third was water sound(high at the middle and high frequency band over 500Hz). This shows that the proposal of the sound which has the frequency characteristics fit to the spacial image should be selected for the soundscape of the target space.

In this paper. the proposed method for the digital watermarking is based on the multiresolution wavelet transform. The 1-level Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT) coefficients of a $2N_{wx}{\times}2N_{wy}$ binary logo image used as a watermarks. The LL band and middle frequency band of the host image that the 3-level DWT has been performed are divided into $N_{wx}{\times}N_{wy}$ size and we use large coefficients at the divided blocks to make threshold. we set the thresholds that completely insert the watermark in each frequency of the host image. The thresholds in each frequency of the host image differ each other. The watermarks where is the same positions are added to the larger coefficients than threshold in the blocks at LL band and middle frequency band in order to prevent the quality deterioration of the host image. The watermarks are inserted in LL band and middle frequency band of the host image. In order to be invisibility of the watermark, the Human Visual System(HVS) is applied to the watermark. We prove the proper embedding method by experiment. We rapidly detect the watermark using this watermarking method. And because the small size watermarks are inserted by HVS, the results confirm the superiority of the proposed method on invisibility and robustness.

In order to properly design warning sounds that are affectively suitable to computer users, warning sounds used in Windows operating system were analyzed in terms of their sound properties; frequency band, spectral characteristics and physical intensity. A total of 36 warning sounds (3*4*3) were generated and tested with respect to three experimental variables. Among 178 collected affective adjectives that are related to hearing and sounds, seven representative affective adjectives were abstracted by statistical grouping techniques. In the experiment, subjective preference tests were performed for the 36 warning sounds according to the seven affective factors. From the result, the affective factors were again grouped into three major factors and the 60dB boost-type warning sounds at the low frequency band were, in general, the most preferred. followed by the 70dB cut-type sounds at the middle frequency band. These warning sounds have a characteristic of boost power spectrum below 1000Hz frequency band and received good scores on simplicity, clarity and accurateness.

A triple-band (TB) oscillator was implemented in the TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ 1P6M CMOS process, and it uses a cross-coupled nMOS pair and two shunt $4^{th}$ order LC resonators to form a $6^{th}$ order resonator with three resonant frequencies. The oscillator uses the varactors for band switching and frequency tuning. The core current and power consumption of the high (middle, low)- band core oscillator are 3.59(3.42, 3.4) mA and 2.4(2.29, 2.28) mW, respectively at the dc drain-source bias of 0.67V. The oscillator can generate differential signals in the frequency range of 8.04-8.68 GHz, 5.82-6.15 GHz, and 3.68-4.08 GHz. The die area of the triple-band oscillator is $0.835{\times}1.103mm^2$.

The highest frequency band of wavelet decomposition band is divided into 4 equal subbands and by the minimum power of the subbands and by the monotonic transform, the level adapted threshold is obtained. The adapted threshold is applied to the soft threshold technique to denoise high and middle frequency band noise of image signals. And the results of PSNRs are compared with the results obtained by the VisuShrink technique and by the technique using the monotonic transform and the weight value. The results showed the validity of this technique.
