  • This study eas conducted to assess the spectrographic analysis agter vocal cordectomy in which procedures included biopsy punch per os, laryngofissure and lactic acid injection to the vocal cord. There were significant difference in dominant frequency(DF) of spectrograms between normal and all surgical procedures for vocal cordectomy at 1 day (p<0.01). Vocal cordectomy(laryngofissure) revealed significant differences in minimum frequency of call (MIFC) and DF during the period of observation after surgery (p<0.01). In lactic acid injextion group, there were also significant differences in DF and maximum frequency of call (MAFC) variables (p<0.01).

  • Geographical isolation may lead to the populations having different ecological characteristics. Geographic isolation have been known to cause echolocation call differences in bats. In order to look at geographic differences of echolocation calls of Great Horseshoe Bats (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum), populations of inland and Jeju island habitats were examined in Korea. The study areas were some abandoned mines in the inland and caves of Jeju island, which were known as rest sites of Great Horseshoe Bats during the active season. Recording was done in two ways: Hand-held, Free-flying. Recording pulse was analyzed into five parameters: Maximum Frequency (FMAX), Minimum Frequency (FMIN), Peak Frequency (PF), Duration (D), Inter pulse Interval (IPI). Interestingly, The present study shows that the difference in echolocation between the inland and island populations. The PF of bats inhabited inland was 69 kHz. but, the PF of bats inhabited island (Jeju) was 71 kHz. There was a difference between regions. Discriminant analyses also showed clear difference between the inland and the island populations. Especially, PF of Korea population is lower than that of Europe (82 kHz) and higher than that of Japan (65 kHz).

  • In this paper, we proposed low power algorithm for a task. The task means the inside of a necessary processor and external resources to work accomplishment of a system. Each task analyzes a life time and a number of called for implement a low power circuit. First of all, reduce power consumption of a task have maximum power consumption for low power circuit implementation. Therefore, first selecting a task had maximum power consumption. The task had a maximum power consumption ranking consider a life time and a number of called for each task. While a life time of task is long, top priority ranking to decrease power consumption to the task that the number of call generates the power consumption how a disguise is large in case of a lot of task becomes. Frequency decision to have minimum power consumption, and decrease power consumption all the circuit by a change of frequency of the task which the minimum task that a wasting past record is the maximum becomes. Also, keep continuously minimum power consumption, with every effort task until last life time in opening life time, and decrease gets total power consumption. Experiments results show reduction in the power consumption by 5.43% comparing with that [7] algorithm.

  • In this study, we analyzed two types of echolocation calls used by the parti-coloured bat, Vespertilio sinensis. Bats were captured in the Naejangsan National Park in October 2013. Call sounds of hand-released bats were recorded at the location of capture within the National Park. We analyzed pulse duration (PD), pulse interval (PI), peak frequency (PF), maximum frequency ($F_{MAX}$), minimum frequency ($F_{MIN}$), and bandwidth (BW). V. sinensis emitted the different types of the echolocation calls depending on the surrounding environment. Frequency modulated-constant frequency (FM-CF) signal of audible range was emitted when they flew in the uncluttered space over the canopy. However, when flying in the cluttered space below the canopy, they only emitted FM signal. FM-CF signal is in the audible range (e.g., low frequency), and FM signal has a harmonic broadband frequency range of two. There were significant differences in PD, PI, PF, FMAX, FMIN, and BW between the calls emitted over and below the canopy. Considering the functional characteristics of FM and CF signals, we conclude that the foraging activity of V. sinensis was observed below the canopy, and recommend the use of FM signal and broadband as echolocation signals.

  • The vibrational behavior of a front load washing machine is heavily influenced by the floor stiffness on which the washing machine is installed. In case the floor stiffness is extremely low like a wooden floor (we call it a 'soft floor, S/F'), it is quite probable that a washer's rigid body mode exists in the operating frequency range. In this case, the outer frame vibration level would be very high, but the mitigation scheme is quite limited except the excitation force abatement by acquisition of the optimal inertia in the internal vibratory system and the diaphragm's stiffness with the minimum force transfer.

  • FHMA(frequency hopping multiple access) communication system has good performance for the LPI and AJ(low probability of intercept and anti-jamming) application. However, high PAPR(peak to average power ratio) happens in the base-station or the repeater system because of a large number of users. In general, predistorter is used to complete the HPA(high power amplifier) nonlinear characteristics. This paper analyzes BER performance when magnitude of IBO(input back oft) and the number of user are considered as the system parameters. In case of the SSPA(solid state power amplifier), the predistorter does not always work as a complete nonlinear compensator. We find that there is a minimum value of IBO for the predistorter to compensate for the nonlinear SSP A, which is changed as the number of user. If IBO is lower than 6 ㏈ at the user number of 16 and p=1, the system with predistorter is poorer than the one without predistorter. Only when the IBO is over 6 ㏈, predistorter does work as a nonlinear compensator. We call it as cross-over IBO value. TWTA improves the more compensation performance than SSPA because characteristic AM/AM of TWTA has more nonlinear than SSPA. At the BER=10$\^$-3/, there are SNR power gains of about 2.5 ㏈ and 3 ㏈ due to the predistorter when the numbers of users are 16 and 32, respectively.
