In this study, a modified dispersion-correction scheme describing tsunami propagation on variable water depths is proposed by introducing additional terms to the previous numerical scheme. The governing equations used in previous tsunami propagation models are slightly modified to consider the effects of a bottom slope. The numerical dispersion of the proposed model replaces the physical dispersion of the governing equations. Then, the modified scheme is employed to simulate tsunami propagation on variable water depths and numerical results are compared with those of the previous tsunami propagation model.

The success of the IEEE 802.11 standard has prompted research into efficiency of the different medium access methods and their support for different traffic types. A modified version of the point coordination function (PCF) called modified PCF has been introduced as a way to improve the efficiency over the standard method. It has been shown through a simulation study and a mathematical analysis that channel utilization can be much improved compared to the standard, in case there is no so-called hidden station problem. However, under the hidden station problem, the efficiency of the modified PCF would obviously decrease. In this paper, some enhancements of the modified PCF are introduced. Firstly, we propose a retransmission process to allow frames involved in collisions to be retransmitted. Then, we propose a collision resolution mechanism to reduce the frame collision probability due to the hidden station problem. In addition, we propose a priority scheme to support prioritization for different traffic types such as interactive voice and video, and real-time data traffic in the modified PCF. To prevent the starvation of one low priority traffic, minimum transmission period is also guaranteed to each traffic type via an admission control algorithm. We study the performance of the modified PCF under the hidden station problem and the performance of the modified PCF with priority scheme through simulations. To illustrate the efficiency of the priority scheme, we therefore compare its simulation results with those of some standardized protocols: The distributed coordination function (DCF), the enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA), the PCF, and our previously proposed protocol: The modified PCF without priority scheme. The simulation results show that the increment of delay in the network due to the hidden station problem can be reduced using the proposed collision resolution mechanism. In addition, in a given scenario the modified PCF with priority scheme can provide better quality of service (QoS) support to different traffic types and also support a higher number of data stations than the previous proposals.

CDMA 무선 환경에서는 페이딩으로 인해 에러간의 상관관계를 갖게 되어 에러들이 버스트하게 발생된다. 이러한 에러간의 상관관계는 RLP에서의 에러복구 수행능력에 영향을 주게 되는데 IS-707 RLP에서 사용되는 (1,2,3) 재전송 방법은 에러간의 상관관계가 크고 링크의 상태가 좋지 않을 경우에는 에러복구 능력이 저하된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 재전송을 요청하는 전체 회수는 동일하게 하면서 재전송이 시도되는 라운드를 증가시키는 방법을 적용하였다. 제안된 에러 복구 방법은 RLP에서의 재전송의 증가로 인하여 발생하는 지연이 증가하는 단점을 가지고 있기 때문에 이를 개선하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 개선된 알고리즘은 재전송되어 도착한 프레임의 타이머가 유지하는 정보인 재전송 라운드와 카운터를 현재 재전송을 기다리고 있는 손실된 프레임의 타이머 정보와 비교하여 이미 재전송이 실패한 프레임들을 찾아내는 기능을 수행하였다. 제안된 재전송 방법과 알고리즘을 적용하여 에러간의 상관관계가 다른 두 채널에 대해서 시뮬레이션을 통해 TCP 수율이 최대 40%, TCP 지연은 2배 정도의 성능 향상을 확인하였다.

A modification of the approximate-factorization method is made to accelerate the convergency rate and to take sufficiently large Courant number without loss of accuracy. And a stable implicit finite-difference scheme for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations employed above modified method is developed. In the present implicit scheme, the volume fluxes with contravariant velocity components and the pressure formulation in curvilinear coordinates is adopted. In order to satisfy the continuity condition completely and to remove spurious errors for the pressure, the Navier-Stokes equations are solved by a modified SMAC scheme using a staggered gird. The upstream-difference scheme such as the QUICK scheme is also employed to the right hand side. The implicit scheme is unconditionally stable and satisfies a diagonally dominant condition for scalar diagonal linear systems of implicit operator on the left hand side. Numerical results for some test calculations of the two-dimensional flow in a square cavity and over a backward-facing step are obtained using both usual approximate-factorization method and the modified one, and compared with each other. It is shown that the present scheme allows a sufficiently large Courant number of O(10$^{2}$) and reduces the computing time.

A fault tolerant satellite attitude control scheme with a modified iterative learning law is proposed for dealing with actuator faults. The actuator fault is modeled to reflect the degradation of actuation effectiveness, and the solar array-induced disturbance is considered as an external disturbance. To estimate the magnitudes of the actuator fault and the external disturbance, a modified iterative learning law using only the information associated with the state error is applied. Stability analysis is performed to obtain the gain matrices of the modified iterative learning law using the Lyapunov theorem. The proposed fault tolerant control scheme is applied to the rest-to-rest maneuver of a large satellite system, and numerical simulations are performed to verify the performance of the proposed scheme.

This paper introduces a new point depletion-based source term calculation code named BESNA (Bateman Equation Solver for Nuclear Applications), which is aimed to estimate nuclide inventories and source terms from spent nuclear fuels. The BESNA code employs a new modified CE/CM (Constant Extrapolation - Constant Midpoint) predictor-corrector scheme in depletion calculations for improving computational efficiency. In this modified CE/CM scheme, the decay components leading to the large norm of the depletion matrix are excluded in the corrector, and hence the corrector calculation involves only the reaction components, which can be efficiently solved with the Talyor Expansion Method (TEM). The numerical test shows that the new scheme substantially reduces computing time without loss of accuracy in comparison with the conventional scheme using CRAM (Chebyshev Rational Approximation Method), especially when the substep calculations are applied. The depletion calculation and source term estimation capability of BESNA are verified and validated through several problems, where results from BESNA are compared with those calculated by other codes as well as measured data. The analysis results show the computational efficiency of the new modified scheme and the reliability of BESNA in both isotopic predictions and source term estimations.

The QUICK scheme for convection terms is modified for unstructured finite volume method by using linear reconstruction technique and validated through the computation of two well defined laminar flows. It uses two upstream grid points and one downstream grid point in approximating the convection terms. The most upstream grid point is generated by considering both the direction of flow and local grid line. Its value is calculated from surrounding grid points by using a linear construction method. Numerical error by the modified QUICK scheme is shown to decrease about 2.5 times faster than first order upwind scheme as grid size decreases. Computations are also carried out to see effects of the skewness and irregularity of grid on numerical solution. All numerical solutions show that the modified QUICK scheme is insensitive to both the skewness and irregularity of grid in terms of the accuracy of solution.

This paper presents a modified adaptive fading EKF (AFEKF) for sensor fault detection and isolation in the satellite. Also, the fault detection and isolation (FDI) scheme is developed in three phases. In the first phase, the AFEKF is modified to increase sensor fault detection performance. The sensor fault detection and sensor selection method are proposed. In the second phase, the IMM filer with scalar penalty is designed to detect wherever actuator faults occur. In the third phase of the FDI scheme, the sub-IMM filter is designed to identify the fault type which is either the total or partial fault. An important feature of the proposed FDI scheme can decrease the number of filters for detecting sensor fault. Also, the proposed scheme can classify fault detection and isolation as well as fault type identification.

본 논문에서는 비터비 디코더의 디코딩과정에서 trace-forward 과정이후. trace-back 동작 없이 decision bit를 결정 가능한 구조로 설계하여 사용 메모리 크기와 동작 cycle에서 이득을 가지는 변형된 레지스터 교환(modified register exchange) 방식을 제안하였다. 제안된 구조는 시뮬레이션에 의해 trace-back이 있는 기존의 방식과 동일한 결과를 나타냄을 확인하였으며, 변형된 레지스터 교환 방식과 기존의 레지스터 교환 방식, 그리고 trace-back 방식과 비교하였다. 제안한 방식은 다른 방식들에 비해 메모리를 1/(5 x constraint length)로 줄일 수 있고, trace-back 방식에 비해 throughput을 2배 향상시켰다. 변형된 레지스터 교환 방식을 적용한 비터비 디코더의 동작을 검증하기 위해 code rate 2/,3, constraint length, K가 3인 디코더를 radix-4 구조의 1 bit 디코딩 방식으로 설계하여 FPGA(field programmable gate away)를 이용하여 구현하고 측정을 통해 오류 정정 작용을 확인하였다. 또한 블록 디코딩 방식에도 적용할 수 있음을 보였다.
