In this paper, we compare the performance of IS-OFDM(interference suppressing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system with that of the conventional OFDM system. Each parallel branch symbol of IS-OFDM is multiplied by the orthogonal sequence and distributed into all sub-carriers. Then, each sub-carrier transmits information composed of the symbol components of all parallel branches in the given frame. The structure of IS-OFDM shows the frequency diversity characteristic. Therefore, IS-OFDM can be robust to the narrowband interference. BER performances are found in the narrow-band interference and a harmonic noise channels. When JSR(Jamming to signal ratio) increases from -10 dB to +10 dB in the constant interference bandwidth, IS-OFDM outperforms the conventional OFDM and the BER difference between IS-OFDM and OFDM is reduced as JSR increases. Also, the similar properly can be shown when interference bandwidth increases at the constant JSR. In the harmonic noise channel, we can find the good performance of IS-OFDM when the h-rate(harmonic noise bandwidth to signal bandwidth ratio) increases from 0.01 to 0.8. So, simulation results show that the IS-OFDM is more robust to the interference than the conventional OFDM.

Commonly used horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT) have the following structure: two or three blades, a nacelle which contains power converting equipments, generators, and a tower which supports the nacelle. The generated power is transmitted from the nacelle to the ground. Due to this structure, the power transmission lines are twisted when the nacelle is yawing. Thus, slip ring or additional yaw control mechanism is required. We propose a new structure of HAWT which is free of this transmission line problem. Moreover, the size of inverter can be reduced since two generators are connected in parallel in our mechanism so that power is distributed. A controller for yawing is developed so that it works in harmony with the controller for power generation. A MPPT (Maximum Power Point tracking) algorithm is implemented for the proposed system and efficiency of the system is validated by simulation.

This paper is study on real-time hand gesture recognition system based on vision for intelligent robot control. We are proposed a recognition system using PCA and BP algorithm. Recognition of hand gestures consists of two steps which are preprocessing step using PCA algorithm and classification step using BP algorithm. The PCA algorithm is a technique used to reduce multidimensional data sets to lower dimensions for effective analysis. In our simulation, the PCA is applied to calculate feature projection vectors for the image of a given hand. The BP algorithm is capable of doing parallel distributed processing and expedite processing since it take parallel structure. The BP algorithm recognized in real time hand gestures by self learning of trained eigen hand gesture. The proposed PCA and BP algorithm show improvement on the recognition compared to PCA algorithm.

대부분 병렬처리 시스템에서 성능 파라미터는 복잡하고 프로그램의 수행 시 예견할 수 없게 변하기 때문에 컴파일러가 프로그램 수행에 대한 최적의 성능 파라미터들을 컴파일 시에 결정하기가 힘들다. 본 논문은 병렬 처리 시스템의 프로그램 수행 시, 변화하는 시스템 성능 상태에 따라 전체 성능이 최적화로 적응하는 적응 수행 방식을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 이 적응 수행 방식 중에 적응 프로그램 수행을 위한 이론적인 방법론 및 구현 방법에 대해 제안하고 적응 제어 수행을 위해 프로그램의 데이타 공유 단위에 대한 적응방식(적응 입도 방식)을 사용한다. 적응 프로그램 수행 방식은 프로그램 수행 시 하드웨어와 컴파일러의 도움으로 프로그램 자신이 최적의 성능을 얻을 수 있도록 적응하는 방식이다. 적응 제어 수행을 위해 수행 시에 병렬 분산 공유 메모리 시스템에서 프로세서 간 공유될 수 있은 데이타의 공유 상태에 따라 공유 데이타의 크기를 변화시키는 적응 입도 방식을 적용했다. 적응 입도 방식은 기존의 공유 메모리 시스템의 공유 데이타 단위의 통신 방식에 대단위 데이타의 전송 방식을 사용자의 입장에 투명하게 통합한 방식이다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 의하면 적응 입도 방식에 의해서 하드웨어 분산 공유 메모리 시스템보다 43%까지 성능이 개선되었다. Abstract On parallel machines, in which performance parameters change dynamically in complex and unpredictable ways, it is difficult for compilers to predict the optimal values of the parameters at compile time. Furthermore, these optimal values may change as the program executes. This paper addresses this problem by proposing adaptive execution that makes the program or control execution adapt in response to changes in machine conditions. Adaptive program execution makes it possible for programs to adapt themselves through the collaboration of the hardware and the compiler. For adaptive control execution, we applied the adaptive scheme to the granularity of sharing adaptive granularity. Adaptive granularity is a communication scheme that effectively and transparently integrates bulk transfer into the shared memory paradigm, with a varying granularity depending on the sharing behavior. Simulation results show that adaptive granularity improves performance up to 43% over the hardware implementation of distributed shared memory systems.

This paper concerns fast and time accurate HW/SW cosimulation for MPSoC(Multi-Processor System-on-chip) architecture where multiple software and/or hardware components exist. It is becoming more and more common to use MPSoC architecture to design complex embedded systems. In cosimulation of such architecture, as the number of the component simulators participating in the cosimulation increases, the time synchronization overhead among simulators increases, thereby resulting in low overall cosimulation performance. Although SystemC cosimulation frameworks show high cosimulation performance, it is in inverse proportion to the number of simulators. In this paper, we extend the novel technique, called virtual synchronization, which boosts cosimulation speed by reducing time synchronization overhead: (1) SystemC simulation is supported seamlessly in the virtual synchronization framework without requiring the modification on SystemC kernel (2) Parallel execution of component simulators with virtual synchronization is supported. We compared the performance and accuracy of the proposed parallel SystemC cosimulation framework with MaxSim, a well-known commercial SystemC cosimulation framework, and the proposed one showed 11 times faster performance for H.263 decoder example, while the accuracy was maintained below 5%.

Grid computing, a mechanism which uses heterogeneous systems that are geographically distributed, draws attention as a new paradigm for the next generation operation of parallel and distributed computing. The importance of grid computing concerning communication cost is very huge because grid computing furnishes uses with integrated virtual computing service, in which a number of computer systems are connected by a high-speed network. Therefore, to reduce the execution time, the scheduling algorithm in grid environment should take communication cost into consideration as well as computing ability of resources. However, most scheduling algorithms have not only ignored the communication cost by assuming that all tasks were dealt in one cluster, but also did not consider the overhead of communication cost when the tasks were processed in a number of clusters. In this paper, the functions of original scheduling algorithms are analyzed. More importantly, the functions of algorithms are compared and analyzed with consideration of communication cost within the co allocation environment, in which a task is performed separately in many clusters.

In Korea, it is the law that an apartment building which consists of over 100 households must have a ventilation system installed, either natural or mechanical. The heat recovery ventilator (HRV) is great way to reduce energy consumption. In this research we confirmed that based on site's construction plan and existing diffuser form, performed purpose CFD which simulates operation in temperatures below $-5^{\circ}C$ to circumstances of installation of an HRV in an apartment. As a result of this research we found that when the diffuser's aperture area was adjusted, the distribution of air temperature and residence time of air was more equally distributed and air temperature was higher, compared to when the diffuser has an identical aperture area. We also found that we are able to increase even more air temperature and air distribution of air temperature and residence time of air was even more equally distributed when run in parallel with a splitter damper.

Utilization of Distributed Generations (DGs) using Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) has been constantly increasing as they provide a lot of environmental, economic merits. In spite of these merits, some problems with respect to voltage profile, protection and its coordination system due to reverse power flow could happen. In order to analyze and solve the problems, accurate modeling of DG systems should be preceded as a fundamental research task. In this paper, we present a PhotoVoltaic (PV) generation system which consists of practical PV cells with series and parallel resistor and an inverter for interconnection with a main distribution system. The inverter is based on controllable current source which is capable of controlling power factors, active and reactive powers within a certain limit related to amount of PV generation. To verify performance of the model, a distribution system based on actual data is modeled by using ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) software. Computer simulations according to various conditions are also performed and it is shown from simulation results that the model presented is very effective to study DG-related researches.

The next generation domestic high speed railway system is a power distributed type and uses vector control method for motor speed control. Nowadays, inverter driven induction motor system is widely used. However, recently PMSM drives are deeply considered as a alternative candidate instead of an induction motor driven system due to their advantages in efficiency, noise reduction and maintenance. The next-generation high-speed train is composed of 2 converter units, 4 inverter units, and 4 Traction Motor units. Each motor is connected to the inverter directly. In this paper, the effects of IPMSM parameter variation to the system operation characteristics of the multi inverter driven high speed train system are investigated. The parallel connected inverter input-output characteristics are analyzed to the parameter mismatches of the IPMSM in 1C1M control using Matlab/Simulink, then the reliability of the simulation results are verified through experimental results.
