To implement high-order multiuser multiple input and multiple output (MU-MIMO) for massive MIMO systems, there must be a feedback scheme that can warrant its performance with a limited signaling overhead. The interference-to-noise ratio can be a basis for a novel form of Codebook (CB)-based MU-MIMO feedback scheme. The objective of this paper is to verify such a scheme's performance under a practical system configuration with a 3D channel model in various radio environments. We evaluate the performance of various CB-based feedback schemes with different types of overhead reduction approaches, providing an experimental ground with which to optimize a CB-based MU-MIMO feedback scheme while identifying the design constraints for a massive MIMO system.

With the recent development of hardware and software technology, interest in the development of wearable devices is increasing. In particular, wearable devices require algorithms suitable for low-power and low-capacity embedded devices. Among them, there is an increasing demand for a signal compression algorithm that reduces communication overhead, in order to increase the efficiency of storage and transmission of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals requiring long-time measurement. Because normal beats occupy most of the signal with similar shapes, a high rate of signal compression is possible if normal beats are represented by a template. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for determining the normal beat template using the template cluster and Pearson similarity. Also, the template is expressed effectively as a few vertices through linear approximation algorithm. In experiment of Datum 234 of MIT-BIH arrhythmia database (MIT-BIH ADB) provided by Physionet, a compression ratio was 33.44:1, and an average distribution of root mean square error (RMSE) was 1.55%.

The purpose of this research is to implement and develop the Economic Cost Driver Size(ECDS) extended model to determine the optimal cash driver size with measurement complexity cost and allocation fail cost. ECDS model can be used to seek both measurement accuracy and time efficiency of the Activity-Base Costing (ABC). The study also develops Activity Priority Number (APN) to evaluate the importance of nonvalue-added activities improvement and to determine the representative cost driver of value-added activities when applying ECDS model. APN consists of Severity Priority Number (SPN), Undetectablitiy Priority Number (UPN) and Occurrence Priority Number (OPN). APN can be obtained from lower-stream activity, current activity, upper-stream activity in terms of hierarchical dependency of SIPOC (Supplier, Input, Process, Output, and Customer). In order to seek both efficiency of invested capital and reduction of overhead cost, the paper proposes the integrated ABC and Economic Value Added (EVA) model using redesigned ABC-based statement of comprehensive income and EVA-based statement of financial position. For a better understanding of the proposed ABC-EVA integrated model, numerical examples are demonstrated in this paper. Cost drivers of ABC and capital drivers of EVA in the proposed model can be used to reduce activity overhead cost from ABC-based statement of comprehensive income and to lessen activity capital charge from EVA-based statement of financial position.

This paper proposes a multi-core cooperative computing structure considering the heterogeneous features of automotive embedded on-chip software. The automotive embedded software has the heterogeneous execution flow properties for various hardware drives. Software developed with a homogeneous execution flow without considering these properties will incur inefficient overhead due to core latency and load. The proposed method was evaluated on an target board on which a automotive MCU (micro-controller unit) with built-in multi-cores was mounted. We demonstrate an overhead reduction when software including common embedded system tasks, such as ADC sampling, DSP operations, and communication interfaces, are implemented in a heterogeneous execution flow. When we used the proposed method, embedded software was able to take advantage of idle states that occur between heterogeneous tasks to make efficient use of the resources on the board. As a result of the experiments, the power consumption of the board decreased by 42.11% compared to the baseline. Furthermore, the time required to process the same amount of sampling data was reduced by 27.09%. Experimental results validate the efficiency of the proposed multi-core cooperative heterogeneous embedded software execution technique.

This paper describes the overvoltage analysis and reduction methods of insulation joint boxes in underground transmission power cables when direct lightning surge strikes to overhead transmission line. An actual 154kV combined transmission line with underground Power cables was modelled in ATPDraw for simulation. Simulations were performed to analyze the overvoltage between insulation joint boxes, sheath-to-ground voltage according to the distance between cable conductors, cable lengths, burying types, CCPU connection types. The most effective method to reduce the induced overvoltage of Insulation joint boxes was proposed. It is evaluated that the proposed reduction method riven from the detailed simulations can be effectively applied to the actual underground power cable systems.

With the recent diversification and complication of buildings, the functions of building are also developing. As much as the development of buildings, the machine or equipment used for them is also developing. Thus, all sorts of domestic/foreign industrial facilities and fire stations in the whole nation are using the electric shutter that could meet the insulation just like the exterior wall of general buildings, for bringing-in/storage and crime prevention/fire prevention. Currently, various types of electric shutters are used. Such wrong operation and poor management are causing many panel-falling accidents. This study researched the reduction of electric shutter panel-falling risk by reviewing the domestic/foreign laws and standards, and researching the new safety equipment. First, the causes for falling and accident types were drawn by analyzing the cases of electric shutter accidents. After that, a checklist as the measures for reducing the falling of electric shutter in building was suggested by analyzing the items for the inspection of electric shutter.

본 논문은 기존 CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) 적응 등화기의 성능인 수렴 특성과 잔류 부호간 간섭을 개선하기위하여 Coordinate Reduction을 적용한 CR(Coordinate Reduction)-CMA에대한 관한 것이다. 송신 시스템과 수신 시스템을 연결하는 무선과 유선의 대역 제한 채널에서 발생되는 부호간 간섭에의한 찌그러짐을 줄이기 위하여 등화기가 사용되며, 이의 대표적인 알고리즘으로는 CMA가 널리 알려져 있다. 이와같은 채널을 통하여 대량의 정보를 고속으로 전송하기 위해서는 등화에 필요한 오버헤드를 최소화할 수 있는 빠른 수렴 속도가 요구된다. 논문에서는 등화기 입력단에서 정상 등화 상태에서 오차를 주이는 수신 신호의 Coordinate를 reduce하는 새로운 비용 함수를 도입하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안한 알고리즘이 기존 CMA 보다 빠른 수렴 속도와 적은 잔류 부호간 간섭양을 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 신호의 PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) 감소를 위한 기존 SLM (SeLective Mapping) 방식의 성능을 개선하는 효과적인 SLM-PRSC 결합 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법에서는 지정된 PRSC (PAPR Reduction Sub-Carrier) 위치를 제외한 주파수 영역 OFDM 심벌에 대해 SLM을 수행한 후, 그 결과들을 시간 영역 PRSC 시퀀스들과 결합하여 가장 낮은 PAPR을 갖는 SLM-PRSC 결합 시퀀스를 최종 OFDM 심벌로 결정하게 된다. 특히 매 OFDM 심벌마다 미리 준비된 동일한 시간 영역 PRSC 시퀀스를 이용하게 되어 IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) 연산 횟수의 증가를 방지할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 선택된 주파수 영역 PRSC 심벌은 SLM용 오버헤드로 사용 가능하다. 모의실험 결과, 제안된 SLM-PRSC 결합 기법은 기존의 SLM 방식과 비교하여 과도한 IFFT 연산 횟수의 증가와 별도의 오버헤드가 요구되지 않음에도 불구하고 PAPR 감소 성능을 크게 향상 시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

MPEG-4 FGS is one of scalable video coding schemes specified In ISO/IEC 14496-2 Amendment 2, and particularly standardized as a scheme for providing fine granular quality and temporal scalabilities. In this paper, we propose a sign-bit reduction technique in embedded bit-plane coding to enhance the coding efficiency of MPEG-4 FGS system. The general structure of the FGS system for the proposed scheme is based on the standard MPEG-4 FGS system. The proposed FGS enhancement-layer encoder takes as input the difference between the original DCT coefficient and the decision level of the quantizer instead of the difference between the original DCT coefficient and its reconstruction level. By this approach, the sign information of the enhancement-layer DCT coefficients can be the same as that of the base-layer ones at the same frequency index in DCT domain. Thus, overhead bits required for coding a lot of sign information of the enhancement-layer DCT coefficients in embedded bit-plane coding can be removed from the generated bitstream. It is shown by simulations that the proposed FGS coding system provides better coding performance, compared to the MPEG-4 FGS system in terms of compression efficiency.
