A terminal-based dynamic clustering algorithm is proposed in a multi-cell scenario, where the user could select the cooperative BSs from the predetermined static base stations (BSs) set based on dynamic channel condition. First, the user transmission rate is derived based on linear precoding and per-cell feedback scheme. Then, the dynamic clustering algorithm can be implemented based on two criteria: (a) the transmission rate should meet the user requirement for quality of service (QoS); (b) the rate increment exceeds the predetermined constant threshold. By adopting random vector quantization (RVQ), the optimized number of cooperative BSs and the corresponding channel conditions are presented respectively. Numerical results are given and show that the performance of the proposed method can improve the system resources utilization effectively.

Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission has been regarded as a potential technology for LTE-Advanced. In frequency division duplexing systems, channel quantization is applied for reporting channel state information (CSI). Considering the dynamic number of cooperation base stations (BSs), asymmetry feature of CoMP channels and high searching complexity, simply increasing the size of the codebook used in traditional multiple antenna systems to quantize the global CSI of CoMP systems directly is infeasible. Per-cell codebook based channel quantization to quantize local CSI for each BS separately is an effective method. In this paper, the theoretical upper bounds of system throughput are derived for two codeword selection schemes, independent codeword selection (ICS) and joint codeword selection (JCS), respectively. The feedback overhead and selection complexity of these two schemes are analyzed. In the simulation, the system throughput of ICS and JCS is compared. Both analysis and simulation results show that JCS has a better tradeoff between system throughput and feedback overhead. The ICS has obvious advantage in complexity, but it needs additional phase information (PI) feedback for obtaining the approximate system throughput with JCS. Under the same number of feedback bits constraint, allocating the number of bits for channel direction information (CDI) and PI quantization can increase the system throughput, but ICS is still inferior to JCS. Based on theoretical analysis and simulation results, some recommendations are given with regard to the application of each scheme respectively.

암을 포함한 다양한 인간의 질병 발생이 circadian clock 유전자의 변형된 발현 양상과 깊은 연관관계를 나타내고 있다. 세포 주기와 세포 성장은 circadian rhythm과 연결되어 있으며, 이를 조절하는 clock 유전자의 비정상적인 발현은 결국 종양 발생과 암의 발달을 유발하게 된다. Circadian clock에 관한 분자적 기전은 다수의 clock activator와 clock repressor의 통합적인 조절에 따른 전사 및 번역이 포함된 음성피드백 고리로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 circadian rhythm의 자동조절 기전에 의해 전체 유전체의 약 10~15%가 전사 수준에서 영향받는 것으로 나타났다. 많은 clock 유전자들 중, Period 1 (Per1)과 Period 2 (Per2)는 clock repressor 유전자로 정상적인 생리적 리듬을 조절하는 것에 기여한다. PER1과 PER2는 cyclin, CDK, CKI를 포함하는 세포 주기 조절자의 발현에 관여함이 밝혀졌으며, 다양한 암에서 PER1과 PER2의 발현 감소가 보고되었다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 PER1과 PER2의 circadian rhythm에서의 분자적 기능과 종양 발생과 관련된 PER1과 PER2의 하위 표적인자에 대해 살펴보고, 암 치료를 위한 새로운 치료 표적과 암의 예후를 예측하기 위한 분자 지표로써의 PER1과 PER2의 가능성에 대해 서술하고자 한다.
