OFDM is a very attractive technique for achieving high-bit-rate data transmission and high spectrum efficiency. However, one of disadvantages of OFDM signal is the high PAPR characteristic when multi-carriers are added up coherently. In this Paper, we propose-scrambling scheme using correlator for PAPR reduction and reducing the amount of PAPR calculations. The simulation results show that this scheme has less computational complexity and reasonable PAPR reduction capability compared to PTS technique.

In this paper we introduce the correlation-aided distributed sample acquisition (CDSA) scheme for fast cell search in IMT-2000 W-CDMA cellular system. The proposed scheme incorporates the state symbol correlation process into the comparison-correction based synchronization process of the original DSA scheme to enable fast acquisition even under very poor channel environment. for its realization, each mobile station (MS) has to store in its memory a set of state sample sequences. which are determined by the long-period scrambling sequences used in the system and the sampling interval of the state samples. CDSA based cell search is carried out in two stages : First, the MS first acquires the slot timing by using the primary synch code (PSC) and then identifies the igniter code which conveys the state samples of the current cell . Secondly. the MS identifies the scrambling code and frame timing by taking the comparison-correction based synchronization approach and, if the identification is not done satisfactorily within preset time. it initiates the state symbol correlation process which correlates the received symbol sequence with the pre-stored state sample sequences for a successful identification. As the state symbol SNR is relatively high. the state symbol correlation process enables reliable synchronization even in very low chip-SNR environment. Simulation results show that the proposed CDSA scheme outperforms the 3GPP 3-step approach, requiring the signal power of about 7 dB less for achieving the same acquisition time performance in low-SNR environments. Furthermore, it turns out very robust in the typical synchronization environment where large frequency offset exists.

The acute toxicity in the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was analyzed and predicted using quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR). The aquatic toxicity, 96h $LC_{50}$ (median lethal concentration) of 275 organic pesticides, was obtained from EU-funded project DEMETRA. Prediction models were derived from 558 2D molecular descriptors, calculated in PreADMET. The linear (multiple linear regression) and nonlinear (support vector machine and artificial neural network) learning methods were optimized by taking into account the statistical parameters between the experimental and predicted p$LC_{50}$. After preprocessing, population based forward selection were used to select the best subsets of descriptors in the learning methods including 5-fold cross-validation procedure. The support vector machine model was used as the best model ($R^2_{CV}$=0.677, RMSECV=0.887, MSECV=0.674) and also correctly classified 87% for the training set according to EU regulation criteria. The MLR model could describe the structural characteristics of toxic chemicals and interaction with lipid membrane of fish. All the developed models were validated by 5 fold cross-validation and Y-scrambling test.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 Version2 Audio 표준에 근거하여 낮은 연산부담을 갖는 독자적인 엘고리즘을 적용한 MPEG-4 BSAC Audio 디코더를 개발하였다. 개발된 BSAC 디코더는 32bit RISC 구조를 갖는 Intel Xscale Processor 기반 시스템에 최적화하여 구현 및 평가를 수행하였다. 수행속도 증가 및 연산 정밀도 향상을 위해 각 기능 블록별 기능 및 구현 원리 연구와 32 bit 연산 구조를 파악하여, 이를 고정소수점 연산 구조로 구현함으로써 성능을 향상시켰다. 유한비트에 따른 오차 영향을 최소화하기 위해 데이터의 표현 범위에 대한 연구를 통해 근사한 오차를 최소화 하여 연산 정밀도를 향상 시키고자 하였다. 비선형 양자화기 및 filter bank 등 상대적으로 높은 연산 부담을 갖는 기능 블록은 Table look-up, 보간법, 지수연산 제거, pre/post scrambling 기법 등을 적용하여 최적화 하였다. 최종적으로 개발된 BSAC 디코더는 32 bit 연산 구조의 X-scale 프로세서를 탑재한 Development Board와 WindowsCE OS로 구성된 타겟 system에 이식하여 performance 평가하였으며, 높은 연산 정밀도 및 다른 수행속도를 확인할 수 있었다. 주관적인 청각 평가에서도 MPEG-4 reference 디코더와의 음원의 차이가 거의 없음을 확인하였다.

A series of O,O-dialkyl-1-phenoxyacetoxy-1-methylphosphonate analogues (1~22) as a new class of potent inhibitors of pyruvate dehydrogenase were synthesized and 3D-QSARs (three dimensional qantitative structure-activity relationships) models on the pre-emergency herbicidal activity against the seed of cucumber (Cucumus Sativa L.) were derived and discussed quantitatively using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indeces analysis (CoMSIA) methods. The statistical values of CoMSIA models were better predictability and fitness than those of CoMFA models. The inhibitory activities according to the optimized CoMSIA model I were dependent on the electrostatic field (41.4%), the H-bond acceptor field (26.0%), the hydrophobic field (20.8%) and the steric field (11.7%). And also, it was found that the optimized CoMSIA model I with the sensitivity to the perturbation ($d_q{^{2'}}/dr^2{_{yy'}}$ = 0.830) and the prediction ($q^2$ = 0.503) produced by a progressive scrambling analyses were not dependent on chance correlation. From the results of graphical analyses on the contour maps with the optimized CoMSIA model I, it is expected that the structural distinctions and descriptors that subscribe to herbicidal activities will be able to apply new an herbicide design.

Influences of alrylamino (R) substituents on the herbicidal activity ($pI_{50}$) of 1-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-propargyloxypheny)-3-(R)-thiourea analogues (1 ~ 35) against the barnyard grass (Echinochloa crusgalli) in the pre-emergence step were discussed quantitatively using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) as the three dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) method. The statistically most satisfactory CoMFA models for the herbicidal activity against the barnyard grass had the better predictability ($r^2{_{cv.}}$) and correlativity ($r^2{_{ncv.}}$) than those of CoMSIA models. The optimized CoMFA model 1($r^2{_{cv.}}$ = 0.531 & $r^2{_{ncv.}}$ = 0.931) with the sensitivity to the perturbation (${d_q}^{2'}{dr^2}_{yy'}$ = 1.081) and the prediction ($q^2$ = 0.475) produced by a progressive scrambling analyses were not dependent on chance correlation. And statistical qualities with the atom based fit alignment (AF) were slightly higher than those of the field fit alignment (FF). According to the optimized CoMFA model 1, the contribution ratio (%) of the steric field (76.9%) on the herbicidal activity of the Thioureas was three-fold higher than that of the electrostatic field (20.1%) and the hydrophobic field (3.0%) had the least influence. A steric favor group is on the vicinity of the nitrogen atom in alrylamino (R) substituent, and a steric disfavor group is on the outer side of alrylamino (R) substituent. Thus, as the size of alrylamino (R) substituent increases, so does the herbicidal activity of the substituent.
