Autoreclosure provides a mean of improving power transmitting ability and system stability. The conventional reclosure adopts the fixed dead time interval strategy, that is, the reclosure is activated after a time delay to restore the system to normal as quickly as possible without regard to the system conditions, however, these simple techniques cannot give the optimal operating performance. For this reason, various adaptive reclosure algorithms have been proposed recently, This paper presents an adaptive autoreclosure algorithm including the variable dead time, optimal reclosure, sequential reclosure and emergency extended equal-area criterion (EEAC) algorithm in order to improve the system stability. The reclosure algorithm performs out the operations that are attuned to the power system conditions. The proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm is verified and tested by using EMTP MODELS, and the simulation results show that the system oscillations are reduced and the transient stability is enhanced by employing the proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm.

Frame synchronization is achieved by correlation between received symbols and a preamble pattern which is periodically appended at a frame header. In this paper, we deal with a frame detection method complaint with satellite-based DVB-S2 system. In DVB-S2, frame synchronization is performed under the low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), a large frequency offset which can be up to 20% of a symbol transmission rate and unknown modulation schemes ranging from QPSK to 32-APSK. In this environment, we propose a method combining differential correlation based on SOF and PLSC with an accumulated correlation method for the detection of frame structures. In addition, detection performances about mean acquisition time(MAT) and detection error probability are evaluated via computer simulations.

This study was carried out to examine characteristics of various acoustic indicators evaluating speech intelligibility such as reverberation time(T₃₀), D₅₀, C₅₀ and speech transmission index(STI) in Korean elementary school classrooms. Results showed that mean T₃₀ at middle frequencies(500 Hz to 2000 Hz) measured in 9 classrooms was about 0.75 s, which exceeds a regulation specified on American National Standards(ANSI); 0.60 s. Mean D₅₀, C₅₀ and STI were 60 % to 66 %, +2 dB to +3 dB, and 0.65, respectively. The maximum difference in D₅₀ and C₅₀ according to different receiver points in a classroom was 13 % and 2.5 dB, while the maximum difference in T₃₀ was 0.03 s. Whereas STI measured in classrooms has relatively low correlation with other indicators, correlation between D₅₀ and C₅₀ was high, R²=.9964. In addition, T₃₀ and C₅₀ were fitted well as logarithmic regression curve with R²=.9610. It was +3.73 dB in C₅₀ and 68 % in D₅₀ which are the value corresponding to 0.60 s in T₃₀ on this curve.

We propose an effective algorithm, which can predict the detailed behavior of the intensity-modulated high speed optical signal after propagating through an optical fiber. The alogrithm is based on the SSF (Split Step Fourier) Method, however, the step size is automatically calibrated in each calculation step to reduce the number of calculations within given round-off error bound. Applying the algorithm to the 2.5 Gbps 100 km transmission and 10 Gbps 40 km transmission simulations, we achieved the calculation time reduction by maximum 1/120 and 1/56 of the calculation time by using the SSF fixed step algorithm previously known. The root-mean-square of the round-off error was kept within -30 dB compared to the signal level throughout the calculation.

Wavelet packet modulation (WPM) is a multicarrier modulation (MCM) technique that has emerged as a potential alternative to the widely used orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method. Because WPM has overlapped symbols, equalization cannot rely on the use of the cyclic prefix (CP), which is used in OFDM. This study applies linear minimum mean-square error (MMSE) equalization in the time domain instead of in the frequency domain to achieve low computational complexity. With a modest equalizer filter length, the imperfection of MMSE equalization results in subcarrier attenuation and noise amplification, which are considered in the development of a bit-loading algorithm. Analytical expressions for the bit error rate (BER) performance are derived and validated using simulation results. A performance evaluation is carried out in different test scenarios as per Recommendation ITU-R M.1225. Numerical results show that WPM with equalization-aware bit loading outperforms OFDM with bit loading. Because previous comparisons between WPM and OFDM did not include bit loading, the results obtained provide additional evidence of the benefits of WPM over OFDM.

The orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems are well suited to multi-rate multicast transmission, as they allow flexible resource allocation across both frequency and time, and provide adaptive modulation and coding schemes. Unlike layered video coding, the multiple description coding (MDC) enables flexible decomposition of the raw video stream into two or more substreams. The quality of the video stream is expected to be roughly proportional to data rate sustained by the receiver. This paper describes a mathematical model of resource allocation and throughput in the multi-rate video multicast for the OFDMA wireless and mobile networks. The impact on mean opinion score (MOS), as a measurement of user-perceived quality (by employing a variety of scheduling disciplines) is discussed in terms of utility maximization and proportional fairness. We propose a pruning algorithm to ensure a minimum video quality even for a subset of users at the resource limitation, and show the optimal number of substreams and their rates can sustain.

HTTP is one of the most widely used protocols of the WWW. Currently it uses TCP as the transport layer protocol to provide reliability. The HTTP uses separate TCP connection for each file request and adds unnecessary head-of-line blocking overhead for the file retrieval. The web application is short sized and affected by the increased handover latency of TCP in wireless environment. SCTP has attractive features such as multi-streaming and multi-homing. SCTP's multi-streaming and multi-homing avoid head-of-line blocking problem of TCP and reduce handover latency of TCP in wired and wireless environment. Mean response time is the important measure in most web application. In this paper, we present the comparison of mean response time between HTTP over SCTP with that of HTTP over TCP in wired and wireless environments using NS-2 simulator. We measured mean response time for varying packet loss rate, bandwidth, RTT, and the number of web objects in wired environment and mean response time and packet loss rate for varying moving speed and region size in wireless environment. Our experimental result shows that SCTP reduces the mean response time of TCP based web traffic.

The objectives of this study were to analyze and compare 24 hrs personal exposure levels of MF at microenvironments such as home, school, educational institute, internet pc game room, transportation, and other places according to time activity patterns using various metrics for children attending the primary schools located near and away from the power lines, and to characterize the major microenvironments and impact factors attributed personal exposure level. The study was carried out for 44 children attending a primary school away from the lines(school A) and 125 children attending a school away from 154 kV power lines(school B), all who aged 12 years and were 6 grade, from July 2003 to December 2003. All participants filled in a questionnaire about characteristics, residence, use of electrical appliances and others. Children wore a small satchel in which EMDEX II and Lite (Enertech, Co. Ltd) and a diary of activity list for period of registration in 20 minutes blocks. All statistical calculations were made with the SAS System, Releas 6.12. The summary of results was presented below. First, about the characteristics of subjects, there no differences between two groups. The subject almost spent about 56 % of their time at home and about 20~25 % of their time at school. Fifty percent of children spent 2 hours at private educational institutes. Second, the personal exposure measurements of children in school B was statistically higher than those of children in school A by various metrics such as arithmetic mean, geometric mean, percentile(5, 25, 50, 75, 95), maximum, rate of change metric, constant field metric. The arithmetic and geometric mean magnetic fields during the time the children were at school B were 0.98 and $0.86{\mu}T$ and were about 23 times higher than those of children were at school A. In conclusion, the significant major determinants of personal exposure level is the distance from the power line to microenvironments.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) combined with time division multiplexing (TDM), in this paper called OFDM/TDM, can overcome the high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) problem of the conventional OFDM and improve the robustness against long time delays. In this paper, the bit error rate (BER) performance of OFDM/FDM in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading. channel is evaluated by computer simulation. It is shown that the use of frequency-domain equalization based on minimum mean square error criterion (MMSE-FDE) can significantly improve the BER performance, compared to the conventional OFDM, by exploiting the channel frequency-selectivity while reducing the PAPR or improving the robustness against long time delays. It is also shown that the performance of OFDM/FDM designed to reduce the PAPR can bridge the conventional OFDM and single-carrier (SC) transmission by changing the design parameter.
