위성 기반의 신호정보수집(: Signal Intelligence, SIGINT)은 지형적인 제약사항 없이 정확한 데이터를 수집하는 것을 목적으로 하는데, 위성통신의 특성상 수집 신호의 전력이 매우 낮으며, 재밍을 포함한 간섭신호의 영향에 매우 취약하다. 따라서 위성을 사용하여 지상의 다양한 신호들을 수집하기 위해서는 높은 수준의 특정신호 도래각(: Angle-of-Arrival, AOA) 추정과 간섭제거 기술이 요구된다. 또한, 수집된 정보를 정확히 지상의 관제 센터에 전달하기 위해서는 높은 수준의 송신 빔형성(Beamforming) 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기술들을 고려한 원형 형상 배열 안테나 기반의 빔형성 위성 시스템을 제시하고, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 시스템의 성능을 평가하고 분석한다. 원형 형상 배열 안테나 구조는 위성에 탑재하기 적합한 안테나 구조로써 위성 기반의 신호정보수집 시스템에 효율적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

최근 약 10년 동안, 인지무선환경에서 1차사용자와 2차사용자간의 스펙트럼 공유를 시장 (market) 논리와 접목시키는 연구들이 활발하게 진행되어 왔다. 즉, 1차사용자가 자신이 소유하고 있는 주파수 자원을 2차사용자에게 금전적 보상을 받고 대여하는 형태를 고려하는 것이다. 그리고, 이에 대한 시장의 평형 (market equilibrium)을 이론적으로 제시하는 것이 그 연구들의 주요 목표이다. 우리는 이 논문에서, 1차사용자들은 2차사용자들에게 자신들의 유휴 채널의 사용권을 대여 또는 판매하는데, 1차사용자들은 허용가능한 간섭의 양을 정해놓고, 2차사용자가 그 간섭의 양을 초과하게 되면 금전적인 보상을 받는 시장 모델을 고려한다. 그리고, 각 2차사용자는 자신들이 1차사용자들에게 지급할 수 있는 예산에는 제한이 있는 상황도 추가 고려한다. 2차사용자의 재화는 자유공간상에서 획득 가능한 전송률이고 1차사용자의 재화는 금전적인 순이득 (net profit)이다. 우리는 이러한 인지무선네트워크 시장을 확장된 Fischer 마켓으로 모델링하고, Eisenberg-Gale convex program을 통해 마켓 균형을 찾는 방법을 제안한다.

Cognitive radio-simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (CR-SWIPT) has attracted much interest since it can improve both the spectrum and energy efficiency of wireless networks. This paper focuses on the resource sharing between a point-to-point primary system (PRS) and a multiuser multi-antenna cellular cognitive radio system (CRS) containing a large number of cognitive users (CUs). The resource sharing optimization problem is formulated by jointly scheduling CUs and adjusting the transmit power at the cognitive base station (CBS). The effect of accessing CUs' spatial channel correlation on the possible transmit power of the CBS is investigated. Accordingly, we provide a low-complexity suboptimal approach termed the semi-correlated semi-orthogonal user selection (SC-SOUS) algorithm to enhance the spectrum efficiency. In the proposed algorithm, CUs that are highly correlated to the information decoding primary receiver (IPR) and mutually near orthogonal are selected for simultaneous transmission to reduce the interference to the IPR and increase the sum rate of the CRS. We further develop a spatial correlation-based resource sharing (SC-RS) strategy to improve energy sharing performance. CUs nearly orthogonal to the energy harvesting primary receiver (EPR) are chosen as candidates for user selection. Therefore, the EPR can harvest more energy from the CBS so that the energy utilization of the network can improve. Besides, zero-forcing precoding and power control are adopted to eliminate interference within the CRS and meet the transmit power constraints. Simulation results and analysis show that, compared with the existing CU selection methods, the proposed low-complex strategy can enhance both the achievable sum rate of the CRS and the energy sharing capability of the network.

Tanks are key weapons of ground combat that are equipped with powerful weapons and have strong protective bodies. One tank component, the engine clutch flange, is located in the part of the tank where the engine and transmission are installed, and it is a key part of the power transfer and shutoff. The engine clutch flange transmits high power to secure the mobility of the tank; thus, it must have high strength and hardness. In addition, high durability and safety must be ensured because tank operations must exclude concerns about damage. In this study, an engine clutch female flange for tanks made of SNCM439 was developed. The 2D design used AutoCAD programs, and the 3D shape design used CATIA programs. The structural analysis was conducted using ANSYS. The mesh grid has a tetrahedron shape and is created by adding a mid-side node. After the mechanical properties and constraints of SNCM439 were entered, the changes in the safety factor, total deformation, and Von-Mises stress were identified according to the increase in torque. Prototype processing was performed to verify the engine clutch female flange for the tank. To determine the productivity of the product, the cutting processing time was measured when processing the prototypes. Based on the results of measuring the cutting processing time, it is concluded that research is needed to improve productivity because MCT slot cutting processing is time consuming.

The Internet of Things (IoT) requires a new processing model that will allow scalability in cloud computing while reducing time delay caused by data transmission within a network. Such a model can be achieved by using resources that are closer to the user, i.e., by relying on edge computing (EC). The amount of IoT data also grows with an increase in the number of IoT devices. However, building such a flexible model within a heterogeneous environment is difficult in terms of resources. Moreover, the increasing demand for IoT services necessitates shortening time delay and response time by achieving effective load balancing. IoT devices are expected to generate huge amounts of data within a short amount of time. They will be dynamically deployed, and IoT services will be provided to EC devices or cloud servers to minimize resource costs while meeting the latency and quality of service (QoS) constraints of IoT applications when IoT devices are at the endpoint. EC is an emerging solution to the data processing problem in IoT. In this study, we improve the load balancing process and distribute resources fairly to tasks, which, in turn, will improve QoS in cloud and reduce processing time, and consequently, response time.

As a method to understand the ecological habits around the artificial reef, various reports such as fishing gear survey, diving, sound survey, underwater CCTV and camera, etc. are reported. Among them, the sound survey method is carried out by installing an acoustic system on the ship and can be investigated regardless of the marine environment such as time constraints and turbidity. Such method, however, takes a lot of manpower and time as the ship travels at a constant speed. Investigations around artificial reefs are being conducted in an artificial way, and a lot of time and labor are consumed as such. Maritime buoys have been operated for various purposes such as route signs, weather observation, marine environment monitoring and defense monitoring for navigation safety in the past, but studies on monitoring systems for ecological habits and distribution of fish using marine buoys are remarkably insufficient. Therefore, this study aims to develop a system that allows users to directly monitor fish group detector data by estimating the distribution of fish groups around artificial reefs and using wireless communication at sea. In order to confirm the suitability of the maritime buoy used in this study, it was operated to compare data using LTE-equipped buoys capable of wireless communication and a data logger-type system buoy. Data transmission of buoys capable of LTE communication was carried out in a 10-minute ON, 10-minute OFF method due to the limitation of the power supply capacity, and data of the data logger-type buoy received full data. We compared and analyzed the data received from the two fish detectors. It is expected that real-time monitoring of the wireless buoy detection device using LTE will be possible through future research.

사물인터넷은 통신 네트워크 기술과 센서를 활용하여 시공간의 제약 없이 사람과 사물을 유기적으로 연결하고, 실시간으로 데이터를 송수신할 수 있는 기술이다. 전 산업 분야에서 활용되고 있는 사물인터넷은 디바이스의 크기, 메모리 용량, 데이터 전송 성능 등 스토리지 할당 측면의 제약사항을 가지고 있어 제한적인 배터리 용량을 효과적으로 활용할 수 있도록 전력 소모량을 관리하는 것이 중요하다. 종래 연구에서는 주로 암호 모듈의 보안 알고리즘을 경량화하여 전력 효율을 개선한 대신 보안성이 열화되는 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 사물인터넷 환경에서 고성능의 보안 알고리즘을 활용할 수 있는 저전력 보안 아키텍처를 제안한다. 이는 무결성 검사를 수행하는 작은 로직을 추가하여 검사 결과에 따라 위협탐지가 필요한 경우에만 보안 모듈을 실행시켜 저전력 환경에서 상대적으로 복잡도가 높은 보안 모듈을 활용해 높은 보안성과 전력 효율성을 제공할 수 있다.

이 연구에서는 창조환경에서 네트워크 활동의 기관별 구조적 공간적 특성을 디지털미디어시티를 사례로 고찰해 보고자한다. 네트워크의 활동은 클러스터를 조성하는 중요한 요인으로, 창조환경에서 상호 학습을 기반으로한 미니클러스터 활동을 분석하였다. 정적인 클러스터 내에서의 미니클러스터 활동을 통한 동적인 네트워크를 구조적 공간적으로 분석하여 기관별 역할과 특징에 대해 고찰하였다는데 연구의 의의가 있다. 이러한 네트워크 활동에 참가하는 주체들의 자료를 이용하여 구조적, 공간적 특성을 주체들이 속한 기관별로 나누어 설명하였고, 네트워크의 분석에서 들어나지 않는 창조환경에 대한 만족도는 설문조사를 통해 입증하였다. 먼저 디지털미디어시티는 정부의 강력한 정책적 지원으로 정부주도형 클러스터 구축이 네트워크 형성에 크게 영향을 주고 있다. 각 기관들 사이의 네트워크에서 디지털미디어와 관련된 산업들 중에서도 이종 간의 커뮤니케이션이 네트워크 형성에 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 하지만 미니클러스터의 참가자들은 각각의 미니클러스터 단위로 활동하고 있으며, 다른 활동에 중복하여 참여하고 있지 않고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 아직까지 디지털미디어시티의 학습을 기반으로한 미니클러스터의 활동은 발전 초기의 단계에 머물고 있음을 분석결과 확인할 수 있었다. 창조환경에 대한 설문조사의 결과를 살펴보면 벤처기업의 경우 특히 기반시설에 만족하고 있고, 대학관련 종사자들은 환경에 만족하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 사회공정성을 위한 시설, 예를 들면 장애우나 아이들을 위한 시설 등은 부족한 것으로 들어났다. 이 연구는 디지털미디어시티 사례를 통해 본 창조환경에서 미니클러스터 활동의 기관별 특성을 고찰하여 앞으로의 발전방안에 대해 고찰하였다.

Relay technology is becoming more important for mobile communications and wireless internet of things (IoT) networking because of the extended access network coverage range and reliable quality of service (QoS) it can provide at low power consumption levels. Existing mobile multihop relay (MMR) technology uses fixed-point stationary relay stations (RSs) and a divided time-frame (or frequency-band) to support the relay operation. This approach has limitations when a local fixed-point stationary RS does not exist. In addition, since the time-frame (or frequency-band) channel resources are pre-divided for the relay operation, there is no way to achieve high channel utilization using intelligent opportunistic techniques. In this paper, a different approach is considered, where the use of mobile/IoT devices as RSs is considered. In applications that use mobile/IoT devices as relay systems, due to the very limited battery energy of a mobile/IoT device and unequal channel conditions to and from the RS, both minimum energy consumption and QoS support must be considered simultaneously in the selection and configuration of RSs. Therefore, in this paper, a mobile RS is selected and configured with the objective of minimizing power consumption while satisfying end-to-end data rate and bit error rate (BER) requirements. For the RS, both downlink (DL) to the destination system (DS) (i.e., IoT device or user equipment (UE)) and uplink (UL) to the base station (BS) need to be adaptively configured (using adaptive modulation and power control) to minimize power consumption while satisfying the end-to-end QoS constraints. This paper proposes a minimum transmission power consuming RS selection and configuration (MPRSC) scheme, where the RS uses cognitive radio (CR) sub-channels when communicating with the DS, and therefore the scheme is named MPRSC-CR. The proposed MPRSC-CR scheme is activated when a DS moves out of the BS's QoS supportive coverage range. In this case, data transmissions between the RS and BS use the assigned primary channel that the DS had been using, and data transmissions between the RS and DS use CR sub-channels. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed MPRSC-CR scheme extends the coverage range of the BS and minimizes the power consumption of the RS through optimal selection and configuration of a RS.

Lattice steel towers for overhead transmission lines have been replaced by tubular steel poles due to the visual impact of large and complex shape of truss type. Demand for tubular steel poles consisting of a single frame member continues to grow because of its advantages such as visual minimization, architectural appeal and minimal site consumptions. However, there are some constraints on the transportation and construction. As the diameter of tower base has been enlarged, it may exceed minimum height limit required to pass the tunnel in case of land transportation. Also, in a narrow place where it is not easy to secure the installation areas such as mountainous places, there might be some areas wherein it must secure a wide working space so that large vehicles and working cranes will be allowed to enter. In this paper, we presented a vertical separated tubular steel pole, which is a new type of support that can be implemented for general purpose such as mountainous areas or narrow areas to improve the issues raised by breaking away from the conventional design and fabrication methods. Technical approaches for overcoming the limit of the cross-sectional size is to separate and modularize the cross-section of the tubular steel pole designed with a size that cannot be carried or assembled, and to lighten it with a weight capable of being transported and assembled in a narrow space or mountainous area. As a result of this research, it will be possible to enter small and medium sized vehicles in locations where it is restricted to transport by large-sized vehicles. In the case of mountainous areas, it will be possible to divide it into a weight capable of being carried by a helicopter and it will be easy to adjust and fabricate it with individual modules. Furthermore, in order to break away from the traditional construction method, we proposed the equipment that can be applied to the assembly of Tubular Steel Pole without using a large crane in locations where there is no accessible road or in locations wherein large cranes cannot enter. In particular, this paper shows the movable assembling equipment and some methods that are specialized for vertical separated tubular steel pole consisting of members with reduced weight. The proposed assembly equipment is a device for assembling the body of the Tubular Steel Poles. It will be installed inside the support and the modules can be lifted by using the support itself.
