This paper presents a novel scheme to estimate the rotor position of a single-phase hybrid switched reluctance motor (HSRM). The back-EMF generated by the permanent magnet (PM) field whose performance is motor parameter independent is adopted as an index to achieve the sensorless control. The differential value of back-EMF is calculated by hardware and processed by DSP to capture a fixed rotor position four times for every mechanical cycle. In addition, to accomplish the normal starting of HSRM, the determination method of the turn-off time position at the first electrical cycle is also proposed. In this way, a sensorless operation scheme with adjustable turn on/off angle can be achieved without substantial computation. The experimental verification using a prototype drive system is provided to demonstrate the viability of the proposed position estimation scheme.

This paper addresses an intelligent robot control system using an off-line programming to teach a precise assembly task of electronic components in a flexible way. The investigated task consists of three job: heat caulking test, soldering on a circuit board, and checking of soldering defects on the back cover of a camera. This study investigates the remodelling of the most complicated cell in terms of the accuracy and fault rate among the twelve cells in a camera back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance soldering quality, to add task flexibility, to reduce failure rate, and to increase product reliability. This study modifies the cell structure, and improves the soldering condition.

We have investigated the effects of hydrogen plasma treatment by PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) in the back channel region, the method for reducing the off state leakage current which increases with the short channel length of a-Si:H TFTs. To improve the off current characteristics, we analyzed the hydrogen plasma treatment with various RF power and plasma treatment times of PECVD. As the result of hydrogen plasma treatment in the back channel region it was remarkably reduced the off current level of 2um channel length TFT.

In applying LCD to TV application, one of the most significant factors to be improved is image sticking on the moving picture. LCD is different from CRT in the sense that it's continuous passive device, which holds images in entire frame period, while impulse type device generate image in very short time. To reduce image sticking problem related to hold type display mode, we made an experiment to drive LCD like CRT. We made articulate images by turn on-off backlight, and we realized the ratio of Back Light on-off time by adjusting between on time and off time for video signal input during 1 frame (16.7ms). Conventional CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamp) cannot follow fast on-off speed, so we evaluated new fluorescent substances of light source to improve residual light characteristic of CCFL. We realized articulate image generation similar to CRT by blinking drive. As a result, reduced image sticking phenomenon was validated by naked eye and response time measurement.

The DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) service which is based on the Eureka-147 of Europe is developed to DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) service that is divided into Terrestrial DMB and Satellite DMB. The Satellite DMB is a new broadcasting service, which will service multi-channel multimedia broadcasting by the portable receiver or the vehicle receiver. In this paper, we consider that link level performance of satellite DMB system A which is based on the COFDM(Coded Orthogonal Division Multiplexing). It uses the OFDM method which is sensitive to nonlinearity, so we analyze the effect of the HPA(High Power Amplifier) nonlinearity. And then we define the appropriate back-off value by performing the link level simulation considering back-off effect. Also we consider the effect of frequency and time offset, and then confirm the overall link level performance by analyzing and verifying a suitable synchronization method for satellite DMB system A.

In the IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN standard, the best effort service class is ranked on the lowest position in priority and is assisted by a MAC scheme based on reservation ALOHA. In such a MAC scheme, a collision among the requests is unavoidable so that the standard adopted a binary exponential back-off rule to arbitrate a collision. Aiming at improving throughput performance, we present two generic collision arbitration rules based on p-persistence rule, (identified as pristine and metamorphosed rules), as alternatives in a wireless MAN. For each of these rules, we then develop an analytical method to calculate an approximate value of saturated throughput. In comparison with simulation results, we confirm the high accuracy of the analytical method. Also, the pristine and metamorphosed rules are observed to exhibit higher saturated throughput compared with the binary exponential back-off rule.

In sensor medium access control (SMAC) protocol, sensor nodes can only access the channel in the scheduling and listening period. However, this fixed working method may generate data latency and high conflict. To solve those problems, scheduling duty in the original SMAC protocol is divided into multiple small scheduling duties (micro duty MD). By applying different micro-dispersed contention channel, sensor nodes can reduce the collision probability of the data and thereby save energy. Based on the given micro-duty, this paper presents an adaptive duty cycle (DC) and back-off algorithm, aiming at detecting the fixed duty cycle in SMAC protocol. According to the given buffer queue length, sensor nodes dynamically change the duty cycle. In the context of low duty cycle and low flow, fair binary exponential back-off (F-BEB) algorithm is applied to reduce data latency. In the context of high duty cycle and high flow, capture avoidance binary exponential back-off (CA-BEB) algorithm is used to further reduce the conflict probability for saving energy consumption. Based on the above two contexts, we propose an improved SMAC protocol, micro duty adaptive SMAC protocol (MDA-SMAC). Comparing the performance between MDA-SMAC protocol and SMAC protocol on the NS-2 simulation platform, the results show that, MDA-SMAC protocol performs better in terms of energy consumption, latency and effective throughput than SMAC protocol, especially in the condition of more crowded network traffic and more sensor nodes.

When a car accident happened, the accident vehicle should broadcast a safe message to its neighbors in multi-hop. However, the pure flooding is difficult to protect a chain-reaction collision because of the frequent collision and the communication delay. To solve this problem, we proposes a back-off algorithm applied to the estimation of the neighbor node count using the t-distribution. And we proposes a MAC protocol preventing the communication delay by separating the neighbor's count collection channel and data channel. As a result, we show the frame reception success rate of our protocol improved more 10% than the previous protocol.

어휘독립 음성인식이란 음향학적 모델 훈련에 사용하지 않은 어휘들을 인식하는 것이다. 단어모델을 이용한 어휘독립 음성인식 시스템은 발음표기로 변환된 인식대상어휘에 대하여 문맥 종속형 부단어(context dependent subword) 단위로 훈련된 모델을 연결하여 단어 모델을 만들고 이 단어 모델로 인식을 수행한다. 이러한 시스템의 경우 훈련과정에서 나타나지 않는 문맥 종속형 부단어가 인식대상어휘에서 나타나게 되고, 따라서 정확한 단어모델을 구성할 수 없다는 문제점이 있다 본 논문에서는 문맥 종속형 부단어 구분의 계층화를 통한 back-off 선택 방법을 이용하여 새롭게 나타난 문맥 종속형 부단어 대신 연결될 부단어 모델을 찾아내는 방법을 제안한다 제안된 선택 방법은 새롭게 나타난 문맥 종속형 부단어를 포함하는 상위의 부단어를 찾아내는 방법이다. 실험 결과 10단어 세트에서 $97.5\%$ 50단어 세트에서$90.16\%$ 100 단어 세트에서 $82.08\%$의 인식률을 얻었다.

According to the convenience and efficiency, IEEE 802.11 WLAN(Wireless LAN) has became rapidly wide-spread on the market. However, QoS support is needed for various multimedia service. In this paper, we consider both MAC method of IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.11e and Traffic Category differentiated service by QoS support method. In addition, we study currently existing back-off algorithms in view of comparative analysis. As a result we propose a new back-off algorithm called Collision Rate Based-EDCF. The proposed back-off algorithm confirms the performance by computer simulations in terms of Throughput, and QoS support.
