좁은 밴드갭 반도체 특성을 나타내는 열전소재의 온도에 따른 전자전도 및 열전도 특성은 다수 캐리어 뿐 아니라 소수 캐리어의 전도 거동에 의해 결정된다. 따라서 소수 캐리어의 weighted mobility에 대한 다수 캐리어의 weighted mobility의 비율로 정의되는 weighted mobility ratio는 열전소재의 성능 증대에 매우 중요한 인자이다. 본 논문에서는 열전소재의 전자전도 현상에 대한 이론적인 고찰을 바탕으로 weighted mobility ratio 제어가 열전소재의 성능에 미치는 영향을 규명하여 고성능 Bi-Te계 열전소재 개발에 효과적으로 활용할 수 있는 소재 설계 지침을 제공하고자 한다.

최근 무선랜 환경을 우리 근체에 널리 퍼져있고 많은 사람들이 FDA를 비롯한 multimedia application들과 같은 휴대장치를 많이 사용함으로써 단말 장비들의 이동이 계속 늘어나고 있다 그러나 이러한 단말 장비들이 이동하여 현재 접속되어 있는 AP(Access Point)를 벗어나 다른 AP와 접속을 시도할 때 두 AP들 사이에는 핸드오프 지연이 발생한다. 이러한 핸드오프 지연을 줄이기 위해 이 논문에서는 효과적인 데이터 구조를 사용하는 WFH(Weighted Frequent Handoff)를 제안한다. WFH는 FHR(Frequent Handoff Region)에서 클라이언트의 이동확률 개념을 도입한 새로운 cache replacement algorithm을 사용하여 cache hit ratio를 높이고 토폴로지에서 불필요하게 중복되는 트래픽도 줄여준다. 이 알고리즘은 QoS를 기반으로 하는 클라이언트의 레벨과 이동 패턴에 따라서 인종되는 범위가 달라지는 FHR과 네트워크 이동 토폴로지를 동적을 캡처하는 neighbor graph을 이용하고 있다.

In IEEE 802.11p-based wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) communication systems, channel estimation (CE) is one of the important issues to provide stable communication service. It is hard to apply conventional CE schemes based on data pilot to real systems, because error propagation occurs in high mobility and modulation order environments, resulting in degrading the CE performance. In this paper, we propose one data pilot using multiple receive antennas (ODPM) CE scheme based on the weighted sum using update matrix (WSUM) with time-domain averaging (TDA) to overcome this problem. Within the process of WSUM-TDA in the proposed scheme, the maximum ratio combining (MRC) technique is applied so as to create more accurate one data pilot. Moreover, a new reliability test criterion is proposed as the fashion of utilizing MRC, which makes it possible to apply selective TDA that guarantees performance improvement. In simulation results, the packet error rate (PER) performance of the proposed ODPM is compared with that of conventional CE methods and its superiority is demonstrated.

High data rates in long-term evolution (LTE) networks can affect the mobility of networks and their performance. The speed and motion of user equipment (UE) can compromise seamless connectivity. However, a proper handover (HO) decision can maintain quality of service (QoS) and increase system throughput. While this may lead to an increase in complexity and operational costs, self-optimization can enhance network performance by improving resource utilization and user experience and by reducing operational and capital expenditure. In this study, we propose the self-optimization of HO parameters based on fuzzy logic control (FLC) and multiple preparation (MP), which we name FuzAMP. Fuzzy logic control can be used to control self-optimized HO parameters, such as the HO margin and time-to-trigger (TTT) based on multiple criteria, viz HO ping pong (HOPP), HO failure (HOF) and UE speeds. A MP approach is adopted to overcome the hard HO (HHO) drawbacks, such as the large delay and unreliable procedures caused by the break-before-make process. The results of this study show that the proposed method significantly reduces HOF, HOPP, and packet loss ratio (PLR) at various UE speeds compared to the HHO and the enhanced weighted performance HO parameter optimization (EWPHPO) algorithms.

Background: People's activities have been restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes in activity patterns may lead to a decrease in fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) concentrations. Additionally, the level of population exposure to PM_2.5 may be changed. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the impact of population movement and meteorological factors on the distribution of PM_2.5 concentrations before and after the outbreak of COVID-19. Methods: The study area was Guro-gu in Seoul. The research period was selected as January to March 2020, a period of significant population movement changes caused by COVID-19. The evaluation of the dynamic population was conducted by calculating the absolute difference in population numbers between consecutive hours and comparing them to determine the daily average. Ambient PM_2.5 concentrations were estimated for each grid using ordinary kriging in Python. For the population exposure assessment, the population-weighted average concentration was calculated by determining the indoor to outdoor population for each grid and applying the indoor to outdoor ratio to the ambient PM_2.5 concentration. To assess the factors influencing changes in the ambient PM_2.5 concentration, a statistical analysis was conducted, incorporating population mobility and meteorological factors. Results: Through statistical analysis, the correlation between ambient PM_2.5 concentration and population movement was positive on both weekends and weekdays (r=0.71, r=0.266). The results confirmed that most of the relationships were positive, suggesting that a decrease in human activity can lead to a decrease in PM_2.5 concentrations. In addition, when population-weighted concentration averages were calculated and the exposure level of the population group was compared before and after the COVID-19 outbreak, the proportion of people exceeding the air quality standard decreased by approximately 15.5%. Conclusions: Human activities can impact ambient concentrations of PM_2.5, potentially altering the levels of PM_2.5 exposure in the population.
