The information technology brought us many kinds of conveniences to our life, but it also caused social problems such as privacy interference, unexpected personal information leaks, and nose generation by telephonic talks, etc. In this paper, the microphone system of the cellular phone is developed to prevent these problems caused by progress of information technology. The developed system was designed to detect only acoustic signals from a human being in the presence of various kinds of background noises. A windscreen was designed by use of micro-channels to eliminate the popping noise by the wind from the mouth of a speaker and four microphone array and signal processing techniques are applied to reduce background noise. The impact of the developed system was evaluated by experimental tests. The results show that the system can improve the required functions considerably.

Ubiquitin is relatively modest in size but involves almost entire cellular signaling pathways. The primary role of ubiquitin is maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. Ubiquitination regulates the fate of target proteins using the proteasome- or autophagy-mediated degradation of ubiquitinated substrates, which can be either intracellular or foreign proteins from invading pathogens. Legionella, a gram-negative intracellular pathogen, hinders the host-ubiquitin system by translocating hundreds of effector proteins into the host cell's cytoplasm. In this review, we describe the current understanding of ubiquitin machinery from Legionella. We summarize structural and biochemical differences between the host-ubiquitin system and ubiquitin-related effectors of Legionella. Some of these effectors act much like canonical host-ubiquitin machinery, whereas others have distinctive structures and accomplish non-canonical ubiquitination via novel biochemical mechanisms.

In this paper, we investigate a charging mechanism for the system interworking between Wireless Local Area Networks(LANs) and Cellular Networks. Because the charging mechanisms of the two networks are different, a unified charging mechanism is required to correlate the charging informations of the two networks in the system interworking. Therefore, we propose a unified charging mechanism to collect charging information with a combined identifier. Also, we propose a decision method to control the interval of transferring accounting information according to the charging types of users (pre-paid, off-paid, and fixed-rate) and show that the proposed decision method improves the granularity and the communication efficiency of charging informations.

The recently proposed Bethesda system for cervical/vaginal cytology has made a standardization related to "atypia". In cellular change due to inflammation or repair, the word "benign cellular change" has been suggested as a substitute for atypia. Terminology related to atypia cells may become standardized, but the cytologic criteria has not been well defined yet Among 8113 cases screened, we evaluated 182 cases as atypia squamous cells undetermined significance (ASCUS) by the Bethesda system (TBS): 52 cases of ASCUS were cytologically diagnosed and 33 cases were histologically verified. ASCUS was diagnosed based on nuclear enlargement and nonclassical signs of condyloma. The results are as follows; Six cases (16.6%) turned out to have benign cellular change. Twenty five cases (69.1%) demonstrated squamous intraepthelial lesion, condyloma was 2 cases (6.0%) and mild dysplasia was not revealed. Moderate and severe dysplasia were 1 case (3.0%) and 16 cases (48.4%), squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma were 4 (12.1%) and 1 cases (3.0%), respectively. Our data suggested that patients with ASCUS are highly recommended to be examined colposcopic biosy to cornfim.

Recently, due to the rapid technological progress, CDMA cellular system is widely used for voice, data and multimedia services. But the analysis for voice-data integrated traffic has not been done satisfactorily. Moreover, there is few research results for voice-data integrated traffic. In this paper, we propose an effective channel allocation algorithm for CDMA cellular system which serves voice-data integrated traffic. As for the proposed channel allocation algorithm, new calls and hand-off calls first attempt to connect micro-cell. We model the channel allocating scheme as a Birth-and-Death process. We reserve a few hand-off dedicated channels and calculate the blocking probability of hand-off calls varying the number of hand-off dedicated channels. Then we decide the number of hand-off dedicated channels satisfying the proper QoS(Quality of Service) and minimum blocking probability.

The minimum duration outage probability of a cellular system is defined the probability that the received signal level is hold under minimum required threshold duration. This definition is more realistic compared to the outage probability which is the received signal strength level is below predefined threshold level. Especially, in a DS-CDMA cellular system the received signal-to-interference ratio is a function of cell traffic, while the former researches are only considered the minimum duration outage probability independent of the cell traffic. We noticed that the minimum outage probability is rapidly increases as cell traffic increase.

The contact procedure of access channel necessary to set up the originating call has a close relation with the performance and capacity of the base station system in CDMA cellular network. This paper investigates the structure and the operation of the backward channel of IS-95 CDMA standard and explains the related system parameters. We can derive the throughput of the CDMA access channel depending on the arrivals of the access probes per access channel slot, given the system parameters such as cell radius, the maximum number of retransmission, and the error rates of the access and paging channel. It shows that the performance in throughput is much better in the CDMA IS-95 access channel than in the slotted aloha channel. It also gives the reasonable number of the trafic channels in a cell with the given blocking probability.

A CDMA-based cellular mobile telecommunication system has already been developed and is expected to provide more stable mobile communication services for much more users than traditional analog mobile systems. As a natural course of development, the CDMA mobile system is expected to provide ISDN services in the near future. In this paper, we analyze several traffic control policies for the voice-data integrated traffic in the cellular CDMA system. We first select four admission control policies which take differences in traffic and QOS characteristics between voice and data into account, and then develop modelling and analysis techniques, which can be used directly to analyze the chosen control policies. Our approach is based on so-called threshold model. Numerical computation results obtained under the typical traffic situation are also given. Through these computation results we could tentatively conclude that the cutoff priority policy, which can provide the priority for handoff voice cells while effectively utilizing unused channels, seems to be most effective among the four policies.

This paper focuses on evaluating the performance of a cellular network using power control based frequency reuse partitioning (FRP) in downlink (DL). In our work, in order to have the realistic environment, the spectral efficiency of the system is evaluated through traffic analysis, which most of the previous works did not consider. To further decrease the cell edge user's outage, the concept of power ratio is introduced and applied to the DL FRP based cellular network. In considering network topology, we first divide the cell coverage area into two regions, the inner and outer regions. We then allocate different sub-bands in the inner and outer regions of each cell. In the analysis, for each zone ratio, the performance of FRP system is evaluated for the given number of power ratios. We consider performance metrics such as call blocking probability, channel utilization, outage probability and effective throughput. The simulation results show that there is a significant improvement in the outage experienced by outer UEs with power control scheme compared to that with no power control scheme and an increase in overall system throughput.

This paper describes a robust mobile u-healthcare system with multiple physiological signs measurement capability in real time with integration of WSN(wireless sensor network) technology and CDMA(code division multiple access) network. A cellular phone receives health data in WSN and performs local physiological signs analysis at a phone processor, and then transmits abnormal data to server for further detail or precise health signal evaluation by a medical doctor over a CDMA network. Physiological signs of the patients are continuously monitored, processed and analyzed locally at cellular phone process to produce useful medical information for diagnosis and tracking purposes. By local simple analysis in cellular phone processor we can save the data transmission cost in CDMA network. By using the developed integrate ubiquitous healthcare service architecture, patients can realize self-health checking so that the prevention actions can be taken earlier. Appropriate self-monitoring and self-management can cure disease and relieve pain especially for patients who suffer from chronic diseases that need long term observation.
