The family of ISO/IEEE11073 standards is the basis of the e-health system and provides interoperability for personal health devices. In the early stage of e-health business, it was expected that people would use a health device individually. In this case, a measurement datum was episodically acquired and generally transmitted for one person at a time. Recently, a health device is expected to be used by multiple people, and large amounts of measurement data are gathered in a short time interval. In addition, mobile health devices have become more popular, so that energy efficient measurement data transmission is required, to prolong the use of a device. In IEEE11073 PHD standards, data transmission is classified into three different types: immediate individual transfer, small block transfer, and large block transfer. The large block transfer using PM-store concept provides efficient transmission. However, an existing PM-store has problem when a device is used by multiple people. To address the defined problem, a modified PM-segment that is in compliance with 11073 standards is proposed in this paper. In particular, the proposed PM-segment is designed to minimize the additional complexity of an agent instead of a manager and it is interoperable with the existing manager. The proposed PM-segment shows better performance than the existing PM-segment, in terms of memory requirements and expected queue time. Also, performance comparison among the three transfers is performed in regard to the delay time and communication power consumption points of view.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서 송·수신단의 샘플링 주파수가 일치하지 않으면 샘플링 주파수 옵셋에 의한 채널간 간섭(interchannel interference: ICI)이 발생하게 되어 시스템의 성능이 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 고속 전송률을 갖는 OFDM 시스템에서 샘플링 주파수 옵셋을 추정할 수 있는 두 가지 시간영역 기법을 제안한다. 첫 번째 방식은 심볼 동기와 반송파 주파수 동기가 이루어졌다는 가정하에서 송신단에서 훈련심볼을 전송한 후 수신단에서 일정 시간 간격을 갖는 두 샘플신호 사이의 위상차를 구하여 샘플링 주파수 옵셋을 추정한다. 두 번째 방식은 반송파 주파수 옵셋과 샘플링 주파수 옵셋이 동시에 존재하는 경우에 서로 다른 주파수 성분을 갖는 두 OFDM 훈련심볼과 간단한 대수 연산에 의해 두 옵셋을 동시 추정한다. 두 가지 샘플링 주파수 옵셋 추정기법은 모두 시간 영역에서 처리되므로 시간지연이 발생하지 않으며, ICI의 영향을 받지 않으므로 우수한 성능을 갖는다. 제안된 방식의 성능을 여러 가지 모의실험을 통하여 검증한다.

본 논문은 RPR 망에서 외부의 공격으로 인해 새로운 노드의 추가, 제거 혹은 링크의 단절과 같은 상황이 발생하였을 때, 보다 신속하게 망을 복원할 수 있도록 새로운 방안을 제안한다. 망 복원에 소요되는 시간은 크게 문제를 감지하는데 소요되는 시간과 이를 복원하는데 소요되는 시간으로 나눌 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 시간들을 각각 단축함으로써 신속한 망 복원을 가능하게 하는 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 복구 방식에서는 망 복원용으로 사용되는 프로텍션 메시지의 전송으로 링크 또는 노드의 상태를 지속적으로 보고하며, 이러한 프로텍션 메시지의 전송 간격은 지수증가 한다. 프로텍션 메시지의 전송 간격이 지수증가 함으로써 야기되는 문제점은, 프로텍션 메시지의 전송 실패로 인해, 링크 또는 노드의 상태 보고가 지연될 수 있다는 것이다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 노드간의 자동 대역조절을 위하여 1ms주기로 전송되는 b형 공평메시지에 링크 또는 노드의 상태 정보를 실어서 전송하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한, 기존의 링크의 단절을 보다 신속히 감지하기 위한 방법도 제안한다.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the prehospital process and reperfusion therapy process of acute ischemic stroke in Busan metropolitan area and examine the impact of living arrangement on the early management and functional outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: The patients who diagnosed with AIS and received reperfusion therapy at the Busan Regional Cardiovascular Center between September 2020 and May 2023 were selected. We investigated the patients' hospital arrival time (onset to door time) and utilization of 119 emergency ambulance services. Additionally, various time matrices related to reperfusion therapy after hospital were examined, along with the functional outcome at the 90-day after treatment. Results: Among the 753 AIS patients who underwent reperfusion therapy, 166 individuals (22.1%) were living alone. AIS patients living alone experienced significant delays in symptom detection (p<0.05) and hospital arrival compared to AIS patients with cohabitants (370.1 minutes vs. 210.2 minutes, p<0.001). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of 119 ambulance utilization and time metrics related with the reperfusion therapy. Independent predictors of prognosis in AIS patients were found to be age above 70, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at admission, tissue plasminogen activator, living alone (odds ratio [OR], 1.785; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.155-2.760) and interhospital transfer (OR, 1.898; 95% CI, 1.152-3.127). Delay in identification of AIS was shown significant correlation (OR, 2.440; 95% CI, 1.070-5.561) at living alone patients. Conclusion: This study revealed that AIS patients living alone in the Busan metropolitan region, requiring endovascular treatment, face challenges in the pre-hospital phase, which significantly impact their prognosis.

Before some experiments were carried out with analog bandpass filter which used for filtering the noise included in sound source signal. And this filter was constituted by condenser, register and operational amplifier. Hut these elements made the phase characteristics to differentiate in each sensing channel and cause a little of measurement error. We made new measurement system that was substituted digital filter for the analog filter in order to develop the optimal system which could find the time delay between each sensors with high accuracy. This paper describes the new system's constitution and the function of each parts. Specially three digital filters were designed and applied to the digital signal processing Part. And a series of experiments were carried out with the source＇s distance 9.53meters and the random bearing interval within the limits of $0^{\circ}$ ~ $180^{\circ}$. As a result, we have recognized that the accuracy of measurements were differentiated by the methods what kind of digital filter were adopted. And we have confirmed the facts that IIR LPF was suitable for sound source's bearing measurement and FIR LPF reduced the range measurement error.

To evaluate remodeling of infarcted myocardium with contrast-enhanced MRI (co-MRI) at true end-diastole (ED) MRI was performed with a Gyroscan Intera (1.5 Tesla, Philips, Netherlands) in 13 patients with acute subendocardial myocardial infarction. The First exam was done 0-15 days (mean 5.2days) after symptom onset and the second exam 28-88days (mean 49 days) after the first exam. Ce-MRI encompassing the entire left ventricle was performed with a multi-shot, turbo-field-echo, breath-hold sequence and a non-selective, inversion prepulse 10 minutes after the intravenous injection of Gd-DTPA at a dose of 0.2 mmol/kg body weight. To allow the long TD, ECG synchronization should use two RR-intervals for one acquisition of a segment of k-space by setting the heart rate to half that of the true heart rate. Trigger delay time (TD) was adjusted to the RR-interval for true end-diastolic imaging. The other typical parameters were TR=5.4ms, TE=1.6ms, voxel size=1.37${\times}$1.37${\times}$10mm, k-space data segmented into 8 segments with 32 lines of segment per two cycles over 16 cardiac circles. The thickness of hyperenhanced myocardium and epicardially nonenhanced myocardium were followed.

네트워크 가상 환경에서 다중 참여자 일관성 유지와 3D 장면의 동적데이터 공유를 연구한다. 클라이언트-서버구조의 분산 가상환경에서 일관성은 상태정보 교환으로 유지되며, 교환되는 동적데이터의 갱신메시지가 자주 브로드캐스트 되면 패킷 지연에 의한 jerk를 일으키므로 데드레커닝 알고리즘을 이용한 이동경로를 예측하여 네트워크 병목을 줄인다. 동적데이터 경로예측은 데드레커닝 수렴간격의 타당성을 실험하여 공유객체 위치를 근거로 예측값과 실제 상태 값과의 오차가 한계값 이상일 때 이전 위치를 보간하고, VRML EAI를 이용하여 3D 가상공간의 동적 데이터 공유를 구현한다.

Inter-symbol interference (ISI) problem is inevitable when the guard interval (GI) is shorter than the delay spread (DS) for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. Iterative techniques have been proposed to overcome such a problem. However, most of existing algorithms are not efficient for an OFDM system with a small GI working under the channel with a large DS. Especially in the case of the DS spans a longer time than the half of the OFDM symbol duration. On the other hand, conventional algorithms, which can reduce the effects of the severe ISI, often employ several impractical assumptions to support the conclusions. In this paper, we present a robust decision feedback equalizer (DFE) for the OFDM system to overcome the severe ISI problem. The proposed DFE removes the ISI in a same manner as the residual inter-symbol interference cancellation (RISIC) algorithm. However, the inter-carrier interference (ICI) is reduced via cyclicity removal instead of the cyclicity restoration used in the conventional algorithms. The link-level simulation (LLS) results indicate that our proposed DFE scheme can dramatically improve the BER performance when the DS spans longer than the half of ODFM symbol duration.
