  • 항공교통관제사와 조종사 사이의 의사소통은 항공기 운항 안전에 있어서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 국제민간항공기구(ICAO)는 민간항공운송산업의 발전과 안전 도모를 위해 조종사 영어자격능력 시험을 의무사항으로 규정하고 있다. 왜냐하면 조종사의 우수한 의사소통능력은 비상상황 또는 비정상상황을 즉각적으로 대응할 수 있는 매우 필수적인 능력들 중 하나이기 때문이다. 대한민국 국토교통부는 2006년부터 ICAO EPTA 시험을 민간항공운송에서 조종사 의무자격시험으로 법적으로 규정하고 산하기관인 교통안전공단을 통해 시험을 주관하고 있다. 본 연구는 EPTA 시험에 응시하는 응시자의 시험에 대한 신뢰성을 증진시키고 시험제도의 발전방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 첫째, EPTA 시험제도와 관련한 이론적 배경을 고찰하였다. 둘째, EPTA 시험제도의 국내에서 정착 및 발전과정을 살펴보았다. 셋째, EPTA 시험제도의 신뢰성증진 및 발전방안 모색을 위해 총 15명의 항공전문가들을 대상으로 질적 연구를 수행하였다. 본론의 질적연구를 통해 연구자들은 국외 ICAO 공식 인증 EPTA 시험결과와 국내 교통안전공단이 주관하는 EPTA 시험결과를 바탕으로 교차응시에 따른 EPTA 등급을 비교·분석할 수 있었으며 시험응시자들에 대한 인터뷰를 통해 국내 EPTA 시험 발전을 위한 개선방안을 도출하였다.

  • This study evaluated the quantitative effects of the deployment of semi-actuated signal systems using field data. For this, a semi-actuted signal system was deployed in the regional roadway network extensively. This paper investigated an operating strategy of semi-actuated signal systems for field application, and implemented the functional strategy into the standard signal controller. The performance was evaluated using three measures of effectiveness such as traffic volume, travel time, and the number of delayed vehicle. From the analysis results, traffic volume increased about 9.4% and 11.3% for morning and evening peak periods, respectively. The average travel time was reduced about 6.3% and 7.8% during morning and evening peak periods, respectively because of the expansion of bandwidths for major streets. In addition, the number of delayed vehicles was reduced about 36.4% and 23.9% for morning and evening peak periods, respectively. It is expected that the effectiveness of signal control system can be improved by incorporating a properly designed semi-actuated signal system in regional roadways with directional demand variation.

  • Our problem is improvement of image quality because it is inevitable cell loss of image data when traffic congestion occurs. If cells are discarded indiscriminately in transmission of MPEG video data, it occurs severe degradation in quality of service(QOS). In this paper, to solve this problem, we propose two method. The first, we analyze the traffic characteristics of an MPEG encoder and generate high priority and low priority data stream. During network congestion, only the least low priority cells are dropped, and this ensures that the high priority cells are successfully transmitted, which, in turn, guarantees satisfactory QoS. In this case, the prioritization scheme for the encoder assigns components of the data stream to each priority level based on the value of a parameter ${\beta}$. The second, Number of high priority cells are increased when value of ${\beta}$ is large. It occurs the loss of high priority cell in the congestion. To prevent it, this paper is regulated to data stream rate as buffer occupancy with UPC controller. Therefore, encoder's bandwidth can be calculated renegotiation of the encoder and networks. In this paper, the encoder's bandwidth requirements are characterized by a usage parameter control (UPC) set consisting of peak rate, burstness, and sustained rate. An adaptive encoder rate control algorithm at the Networks Interface Card(NIC) computes the necessary UPC parameter to maintain the user specified quality of service. Simulation results are given for a rate-controlled VBR video encoder operating through an ATM network interface which supports dynamic UPC. These results show that dynamic bandwidth renegotiation of prioritized data stream could provided bandwidth saving and significant quality gains which guarantee high priority data stream.

  • The bikes are conflicted with the cars and the pedestrian at the intersection and the road with the bike crossing. To establish the bike signal at this section is one method to solve this conflict. According to the survey for the bike road status and the biker's characters which are crossing the road at the intersection, the bike crossing are established with beside the pedestrian crossing and most of the bikers are crossing the street by the pedestrian signal. Also, the bike queue which is waiting the signal change at the stop line was cleared before the closing the pedestrian signal. Considering the result of this survey, TOUCAN crossing signal type in England for bike signal at the place where the bike crossing are established with beside the pedestrian crossing, in which bike rider and pedestrian can cross by the pedestrian signal operation, is suggested. However, at the place where the bike crossing is apart from the pedestrian crossing, the bike signal which is connected to the vehicle signal is suggested. All these types of bike signals can be accepted for the present bike crossing equipments and the biker's characters and be adapted to the police standard traffic signal controller by adjusting the signal time only without any function change.

  • In recent years the popularity of multi-hop wireless networks has been growing. Its flexible topology and abundant routing path enables many types of applications. However, the lack of a centralized controller often makes it difficult to design a reliable service in multi-hop wireless networks. While packet routing has been the center of attention for decades, recent research focuses on data discovery such as file sharing in multi-hop wireless networks. Although there are many peer-to-peer lookup (P2P-lookup) schemes for wired networks, they have inherent limitations for multi-hop wireless networks. First, a wired P2P-lookup builds a search structure on the overlay network and disregards the underlying topology. Second, the performance guarantee often relies on specific topology models such as random graphs, which do not apply to multi-hop wireless networks. Past studies on wireless P2P-lookup either combined existing solutions with known routing algorithms or proposed tree-based routing, which is prone to traffic congestion. In this paper, we present two wireless P2P-lookup schemes that strictly build a topology-dependent structure. We first propose the Ring Interval Graph Search (RIGS) that constructs a DHT only through direct connections between the nodes. We then propose the ValleyWalk, a loosely-structured scheme that requires simple local hints for query routing. Packet-level simulations showed that RIGS can find the target with near-shortest search length and ValleyWalk can find the target with near-shortest search length when there is at least 5% object replication. We also provide an analytic bound on the search length of ValleyWalk.

  • We frequently confront with cars interfering into our lane on the ramp. We suffered from serious traffic congestion due to the interfering cars. But the police enforcement has not done actively because it's hard to enforce. In this study, we have evaluated the systems to enforce cutting-in cars through the field test. Generally, the image processing method depends on the weather. To overcome this limitation we proposed a new algorithm combined with section detection method. In the filed test we concluded the results as follows. Whereas the violation detection rate of the general image processing was 58.2%, a new algorithm proposed by this study was 74.5%. And, an error rate enforcing vehicles that do not violate was 0.0%. Also, we can use the existing facilities, such as street light because of compact and lightweight systems which are integrated camera with controller. Therefore, we concluded that it is possible to enforce the interfering Cars using vehicle enforcement systems.

  • Distributing the routing path over the entire network is an important factor to maintain the lifetime of wireless sensor network as long as possible. This paper proposes a fuzzy routing protocol that decides a routing path based on the fuzzy control rules. The fuzzy controller receives the energy values, distances, and hop counts of possible route paths as input, and the inference engine produces the contribution factors for each of route paths. The route path with the largest contribution factor is elected as the final routing path. The nodes contained in the routing path reduce their energy after transmitting a data packet so as to prevent the same route path from being selected repeatedly. It makes the network traffic spreaded over the network resulting longer network lifetime. The computer simulations on TinyOS have shown that the fuzzy routing protocol is more energy efficient and has longer network lifetime compared to the existing routing protocols.
