Two cases of block coded phase/frequncy modulations are investigated. minimum Euclidean distances are calculated as the function of modulation index h and rotation angle \ulcorner in the cases of 2-FSK/4-PSK and 2-FSK/8-PSK. Method of signal set partitioning is described, especially for the case of 2-FSK/8-PSK. The results are compared with S.I. Sayegh's work and shown better performance. For example, with simple parity check and repetition codes, we can get coding gain of 3 dB in the case of 2-FSK/4-PSK with block length n=4. We get 5.33 dB in the case of 2-FSK/8-PSK with n=4. And it is believed that we can get higher coding gain with proper combinations of block code and n-FSK/m-PSK type channel signal constellations.

This study is related with assumption of stress block parameter for high-strength concrete. The equivalent stress distribution block of KCI design code isn't matched with the real stress distribution of high strength concrete. In this study, we tried to suggest new type of stress block parameter based on both previous test data and theoretical process.

Stress-strain relation and stress block parameters of polymer concrete flexural compression members were experimentally investigated. For these purposes, a series of C-shaped polymer concrete specimens subjected to axial compressive load was tested. Based on the test results, we proposed an equation by which the stress-strain relation of polymer concrete can be predicted. In this model, we took account the slope of descending branch beyond the peak stress point of single curve. The proposed equation was numerically integrated to compute the rectangular stress block parameters. Computed ${\beta}_1$ was greater than the values prescribed in ACI 318 Code for cement concrete, and $\gamma$ was about 0.85 that is similar to the value regulated in the ACI.

The ACI building code is allowing for higher strength reinforcement and concrete compressive strengths. The nominal strength of high-strength concrete columns is over predicted by the current ACI 318 rectangular stress block and is increasingly unconservative as higher strength materials are used. Calibration of a rectangular stress block to address this condition leads to increased computational complexity. A triangular stress block, derived from the general shape of the stress-strain curve for high-strength concrete, provides a superior solution. The nominal flexural and axial strengths of 150 high-strength concrete columns tests are calculated using the proposed stress distribution and compared with the predicted strength using various design codes and proposals of other researchers. The proposed triangular stress model provides similar level of accuracy and conservativeness and is easily incorporated into current codes.

In this study a microchannel with various arrangement of blocks is newly proposed. This design comprises periodically arranged simple blocks. In this configuration, the stirring is greatly enhanced at a certain geometric parameter set. To characterize the flow field and the stirring effect both the numerical and experimental methods were employed. To obtain the velocity field, three-dimensional numerical computation to the Navier Stokes equations are performed by using a commercial code, FLUENT 6.0. The fluid-flow solutions are then cast into studying the characteristics of stirring with the aid of Lyapunov exponent. The numerical results show that the particles' trajectories in the microchannel heavily depend on the block arrangement. It was shown that the stirring is significantly enhanced at larger block-height and it reaches maximum when the height is 0.8 times the channel width. We also studied the effect of the block stagger angle, and it turns out that the stirring performance is the best at the block angel ${45^\circ}$.

J.Milnor[Mi2] has introduced the notion of directional entropy in his study of Cellular Automata. Cellular Automaton map can be considered as a continuous map from a space $K^Z^n$ to itself which commute with the translation of the lattice $Z^n$. Since the space $K^Z^n$ is compact, map S is uniformly continuous. Hence S is a block map(a finite code)[He]. (S is said to have a finite memory.) In the case of n = 1, we have a shift map, T on $K^Z$, and a block map S and they together generate a $Z^2$ action.

A hardware design of LDPC decoder which is based on the improved normalized min-sum(INMS) decoding algorithm is described in this paper. The designed LDPC decoder supports 19 block lengths(576~2304) and 6 code rates(1/2, 2/3A, 2/3B, 3/4A, 3/4B, 5/6) of IEEE 802.16e mobile WiMAX standard and 3 block lengths(648, 1296, 1944) and 4 code rates(1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6) of IEEE 802.11n WLAN standard. The decoding function unit(DFU) which is a main arithmetic block is implemented using sign-magnitude(SM) arithmetic and INMS decoding algorithm to optimize hardware complexity and decoding performance. The LDPC decoder synthesized using a 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS cell library with 100 MHz clock has 284,409 gates and RAM of 62,976 bits, and it is verified by FPGA implementation. The estimated performance depending on code rate and block length is about 82~218 Mbps at 100 MHz@1.8V.

IMT-2000 시스템에서 직교 STBC (Space-Time Block Code)와 같은 송신 다이버시티(diversity) 기법은 순방향 링크용량을 향상시킬 수 있다. 그러나 완벽한 다이버시티 (full diversity) 이득과 코드율 1 (full code rate)을 갖는 직교 STBC는 송신안테나 개수가 2개일 경우만 존재한다. 이 논문에서는 4개의 송신안테나와 1개의 수신안테나를 갖는 시스템에서 코드율 1 을 갖는 준직교 STBC를 사용할 경우 안테나 선택적 feedback 정보를 이용하여 완벽한 다이버시티 이득을 얻는 동시에 feedback 정보량은 줄일 수 있음을 보여 준다.
