As data sharing increases explosively, such information encoded in QR code is completely public as private messages are not securely protected. This paper proposes a new 'PROMISE' framework for hiding information based on the QR code projection matrix by using image segmentation without modifying the essential QR code characteristics. Projection matrix mapping, matrix scrambling, fusion image segmentation and steganography with SEL(secret embedding logic) are part of the PROMISE framework. The QR code could be mapped to determine the segmentation site of the fusion image as a binary information matrix. To further protect the site information, matrix scrambling could be adopted after the mapping phase. Image segmentation is then performed on the fusion image and the SEL module is applied to embed the secret message into the fusion image. Matrix transformation and SEL parameters should be uploaded to the server as the secret key for authorized users to decode the private message. And it was possible to further obtain the private message hidden by the framework we proposed. Experimental findings show that when compared to some traditional information hiding methods, better anti-detection performance, greater secret key space and lower complexity could be obtained in our work.

The multi-carrier transmission signal in Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) has a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which results in nonlinear distortion and deteriorative system performance. An n-tuple selective mapping method is proposed to reduce the PAPR, in this paper. This method generates $2^n$ sequences of an original data sequence by adding n-tuple of n PAPR control bits to it followed by an interleaver and error-control code (ECC) to reduce its PAPR. The convolutional, Golay, and Hamming codes are used as ECCs in the proposed scheme. The proposed method uses different numbers of the n PAPR control bits to accomplish a noteworthy PAPR reduction and also avoids the need for a side-information transmission. The simulation results authenticate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

According to rapid developments in data communication, we have being used every infromation with ease. In receiving and transmitting the infromation acquired, it is being needed to transmit it with minimizing bits if possible. Therefore this paper suggests the efficient coding system, that is, OCM(Octal-Compact Mapping) technique. In case of average-case, it has 3.5bytes in entropy with 8 symbols. This means it is compressed more than at least 1 byte as compared with another coding techniques. It decreases the redundancy of data and is superior to another data compression techniques.

A simple and general bit log-likelihood ratio (LLR) expression is provided for Gray-coded rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (R-QAM) signals. The characteristics of Gray code mapping such as symmetries and repeated formats of the bit assignment in a symbol among bit groups are applied effectively for the simplification of the LLR expression. In order to reduce the complexity of the max-log-MAP algorithm for LLR calculation, we replace the mathematical max or min function of the conventional LLR expression with simple arithmetic functions. In addition, we propose an implementation algorithm of this expression. Because the proposed expression is very simple and constructive with some parameters reflecting the characteristic of the Gray code mapping result, it can easily be implemented, providing an efficient symbol de-mapping structure for various wireless applications.

In this paper, we implement an efficient MLC/PDL system for AWGN channels. In terms of the tradeoff between the hardware implementation and system performance, proposed algebra LDPC codes are optimized by the Gaussian approximation(GA) according to the rate of each level assigned by the capacity rule and chosen as the component code. System performance with Ungerboeck Partitioning(UP), Miked Partitioning(MP) and Gray Mapping(GM) of 8PSK are evaluated, respectively. Many results are presented in this paper; they can indicate that the proposed MLC/PDL system using optimized algebra LDPC codes with different code rate, capacity rule and Gray mapping(GM) can achieve the best performance.

This paper shows that the proposed Turbo TCM(Turbo Trellis Coded Modulation) has a good performance with a little complexity of decoder. The encoder structure, which is connected with Turbo Codes, is the proposed modulation technique for an efficient bandwidth, This method is used symbol by symbol MAP decoder of iteration similar to binary Turbo Codes in the receiver. The result shows that the BER performance according to iteration is improved about 2,5dB at $BER=10^{-2}$ compared to Turbo Codes with Gray mapping.

In this paper, it was studied that the performance of OFDM transmission scheme was improved in fading channel by applying TCM, which has advantages of error correction and bandwidth efficiency. Simulation was carried out for two TCM models with different code efficient length. By mapping two models to square 16QAM, the model with the code efficient length of 2 achieved 3㏈ better than the other for the BER of 10$^{-3}$ . In conclusion, if we want to achieve a better performance with TCM in OFDM applications, we should select a TCM with langer code efficient length.

Geological symbols are used for describing geological information. But it's not ease to represent them in commercial GIS s/w, because of their complexity and diversity. This study aims at developing the geological symbol mapping tool for representing geological symbol on user's geological information. Geological symbol mapping too is a web application which can handle SHP format and map geological symbols based on user's requests. It manages geological symbols and mapping codes and symbols are mapped within the geological boundary according to the corresponding non-spatial field that is a mapping code. The system has functions to upload a user's GIS file, and download the converted image file which is mapped geological patterns. The system displays converted images to be check mapping results. Because the symbols are simple bitmap files, user(system manager) can design and apply them rapidly without considering specific commercial S/W. Thus, it is expected that this system plays an important role to disseminate geological standards such as geological symbols. And the results of this study can be used for developing global geological symbols and applying them easily

In this paper, a bit-mapping scheme is proposed for partial Chase combining in LDPC-coded systems. Contrary to the previously known bit mapping that assigns the information bits to more reliable channels, the proposed mapping assigns the codeword bits of irregular LDPC codes to distinct Gaussian channels by considering the characteristics of LDPC codes and channels. The recursion equation for partial Chase combining is derived by using the density evolution technique, based on it, the best bit mapping among the various bit-mapping schemes is derived, and the validity of them is confirmed through simulation.
