Despite the steady effort of kitchen furniture industry, consumers' complains never seem to decrease. The common storage problem of the houses of different sizes(20 pyeong, 30 pyeong, and 40 pyeong) was the dificiency of storage area and inadequate shelf division. It implies that such dificiency in kitchens is not because of the size of storage area, but because of such a great diversity of kitchenware and lack of studies on these items. The purpose of this research is to provide the checklist of the variety and quantity of stored kitchenware in researched area and easily adopt it to the kitchen furniture design. Studied household in average hold 239 types and about 890 items. The size of residence did not effect the number much. The first step of making the checklist is to categorize items into 9 biggest categories considering the usage of items and in which step of the preparing food the item was used. Second step is to categorize the items into 31 smaller categories reflecting the shape of items, the storage style and the place of storage. Third step is to sort the items into smallest categories by the frequency of use, storage type, and additional capacity of an item. Even when items are sorted into the same higher level of categories, the frequency of use caused storage area to differ. Also, storage style of an item differed according to the storage area. Based on these factors, we listed items in detail and made the checklist.

Multirate filtering process on the biological signals like Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Photoplethysmogram (PPG) can be defined as the digital signal processing algorithm in which the sampling rate varies to omit or interpolate the intermediate values between the sampled data. With this aim, we suggest a new multirate filtering algorithm by deleting the extraneous data to eliminate the unwanted degradations such as granular noise due to the usage of high sampling frequency and simultaneously to detect the fiducial features of ECG and PPG with reducing the complexity of resolving fiducial points such as R-peak, Pulse peak and Pulse Transit Time (PTT). After the experimental simulations performed, we can conclude the fact that we can detect the fiducial features of ECG and PPG signal in terms of R-peak, Pulse peak and PTT without the loss of accuracy even if we do not maintain the original sampling frequency.

Various technologies such as infrared light, ultrasonic waves, RFID, GPS, UWB, and signal indicators have been incorporated in the location tracking system. However, such pre-existing systems require location recognition in shadow areas. This study proposes a location tracking system that utilizes Cooperative Spectrum Sensing. Cooperative Spectrum Sensing is not only able to track the location and path of moving objects but also recognize when objects breakaway from the path set by sensors and guide them back. In addition, it has the advantage of being more efficient in terms of frequency usage. It is able to automatically fix power transmission and frequency modulation for transmission cognitive users to an optimum level within the range that does not cause interference for primary users.

Cognitive Radio (CR) has very promising potential to improve spectrum utilization by allowing unlicensed Secondary Users (SUs) to access the spectrum dynamically without disturbing licensed Primary Users (PUs). Mitigating interference is a fundamental problem in CR scenarios. This is particularly problematic for deploying CR in cellular networks, when users are located at the cell edge, as the inter-cell interference mitigation and frequency reuse are critical requirements for both PUs and SUs. Further cellular networks require higher cell edge performance, then SUs will meet more challenges than PUs. To solve the performance decrease for SUs at the cell edge, a novel Dynamic Spectrum Allocation (DSA) scheme based on Game Theory is proposed in this paper. Full frequency reuse can be realized as well as inter-cell interference mitigated according to SUs' sensing, measurement and interaction in this scheme. A joint power/channel allocation algorithm is proposed to improve both cell-edge user experience and network performance through distributed pricing calculation and exchange based on game theory. Analytical proof is presented and simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves high efficiency of spectrum usage and improvement of cell edge SUs' performance.

Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is defined as the practice of imperceptible altering a digital content to embed a message using watermarking in the encryption domain. This protocol is acknowledged as one kind of copyright protection techniques in electronic commerce. Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is fundamentally based on public-key cryptosystem that is operating using the algebraic property of an integer. However, in general usage, digital contents which are handled in watermarking scheme mostly exist as real numbers in frequency domain through DCT, DFT, DWT, etc. Therefore, in order to use the watermarking scheme in a cryptographic protocol, digital contents that exist as real number must be transformed into integer type through preprocessing beforehand. In this paper, we presented a new watermarking scheme in an encrypted domain in an image that is based on the block-DCT framework and homomorphic encryption method for buyer-seller watermarking protocol. We applied integral-processing in order to modify the decimal layer. And we designed a direction-adaptive watermarking scheme by analyzing distribution property of the frequency coefficients in a block using JND threshold. From the experimental results, the proposed scheme was confirmed to have a good robustness and invisibility.

In clinical study or epidemic research, the $2{\times}2$ frequency table is useful to present a summary statistic The values of four cells in $2{\times}2$ table use to calculate the effect measures such as risk ratio, relative ris ratio or odds ratio. In this paper, we suggest that the improved visualization method using a radar diagram supported by MS-office Excel from the $2{\times}2$ frequency table is able to understand and draw easily betweendiagnosti measures such as sensitivity, specificity, predictivity, and likelihood ratio. We use some numerical example in order to show the usage of the proposed method.

This paper presents a primary study for a new method of enhancing measurement using impedance analysis method, which is widely used for structure health monitoring. Many of skyscrapers, bridges, tunnels, which have been built up several years, and nearly reached their operating life due to aging crack, material deterioration, and so on. therefore, the health monitoring technique has obtained considerable attention. The usage of the PZT sensor is proposed, and the coupling torque of bolt-connection overlapping beam is assumed. By using the torque wrench, it is easy to apply torque of different values to each bolt. The coupling torque is adjusted gradually from $3N{\cdot}m\;to\;0N{\cdot}m$ with the decrement of $1N{\cdot}m$. Simultaneously, the impedance peak variation is measured. The peak frequency variation can be determined through the change of bolt coupling torque.

In this paper, we try to solve the frequency shortage due to the increase of LTE terminals and the traffic jam caused by the inefficient WiFi connection method. The proposed LTE-WIFI Vertical Handover method uses a pre-authentication method of the AP through LTE and a method of controlling the access AP of the terminal using the RADIUS server. Through the simulation, the proposed method shows that the access speed of the AP is improved by about 95% compared to the conventional connection method, and the connection speed is improved by about 18% compared to the conventional method. Providing seamless AP through pre-authentication system and improving wireless network speed through AP access distribution can solve LTE frequency shortage problem and improve wireless network usage satisfaction.

This paper proposed an improvement scheme for effective usage of radio-frequency management system(RFMS), which has been operated to facilitate national spectrum management and monitoring in Korea. Based on the wave propagation models, interference analysis algorithms, and sharing criteria recommended by ITU-R, we derived criteria for the automated selection of the channel interference analysis algorithms and sharing conditions adequate to the environment to be analysed. Then using the obtained criteria, computer and program has been made and shown to select the most appropriate propagation models, interference analysis algorithms, and sharing criteria from the ones provided in RFMS, with the illustrative example.
