  • The indicated power of Stirling engine was affected by the heat exchange effectiveness of the regenerator. The temperature difference of working fluid between the expansion and the compression space of Stilting engine depends on the heat exchange effectiveness of the regenerator. The influence of the temperature ratio of expansion space to compression space of Stirling engine on the indicated power was analyzed by using Schmidt analysis in this study. In the Stirring engine, as the temperature ratio increased, the indicated power generally decreased. Therefor, it is necessary to develope the regenerator of high effectiveness. The actual indicated power was shown 64.9 percent of the predicted indicated power in maximum and 47.2 percent of that in minimum due to increased dead volume of engine, the loss of flow friction and heat transfer in the regenerator.

  • Super-orthogonal space-time trellis code (SOTTC) uses the expanded set of the orthogonal space-time block code to obtain coding gain and diversity gain without loss of transmit rate. In SOSTTCs, signal set expansions are performed by rotating the first column of the code matrix. The rotating phases used previously were selected to avoid the signal constellation expansion rather than the performance improvement. In this paper, we make a design criterion to select the proper rotating phase to improve the performance of SOSTTCs for fast Rayleigh fading channels. In addition, we design improved SOSTTCs by using the proper rotating phase. Simulation results are also provided to confirm our SOSTTCs are superior to the previous SOSTTCs in the view of BER performance.

  • We have performed single dish and VLBI monitoring observations of $H_2O$ and SiO masers toward the semi-regular variable star R Crateris using the Korean VLBI Network(KVN) 4 band receiving system. In the case of VLBI observations at 3 epochs, successful superposed maps of $H_2O$ and SiO masers were obtained on 2015 May by adopting the Source Frequency Phase Referencing(SFPR) method. These results enable us to investigate the development of outflow and asymmetric motions from SiO maser to $H_2O$ maser regions according to stellar pulsation which are closely related with a mass-loss process. Single dish monitoring observations were carried out from 2009 June to 2015 May. Intensity variations between $H_2O$ and SiO masers were investigated according to stellar phases together with peak velocity variations. We will compare the VLBI results with those of single dish.

  • Network coding, as a new technique to improve the throughput, is studied combined with multi-relay model in this paper to address the challenges of long distance and power limit in deep space communication. First, an amplify-and-forward relaying approach based on analog network coding (AFNC) is proposed in multi-relay network to improve the capacity for deep space communication system, where multiple relays are introduced to overcome the long distance link loss. The design of amplification coefficients is mathematically formulated as the optimization problem of maximizing SNR under sum-power constraint over relays. Then for a dual-hop relay network with a single source, the optimal amplification coefficients are derived when the multiple relays introduce non-coherent noise. Through theoretic analysis and simulation, it is shown that our approach can achieve the maximum transmission rate and perform better over single link transmission for deep space communication.

  • This study was carried out to provide a valuable reference which could reduce heating loss of air-inflated double PO film. Therefore, this study was aimed to choose the best air space thickness and injected air temperature. The characteristics of heat transmission variation at experimental materials were measured and analysed in the laboratory. The experiment was conducted of two layers of PO film, each 0.15 mm tick, sandwiching 110, 175, 225 mm of inflated air with 1 m sides. Environmental control lab was constantly controlled with $-10^{\circ}C$ and experiment chamber was constantly changed with 0, 5, 10, $15^{\circ}C$. The analysis of heat transfer showed that heat transmission does not have a direct correlation with Air Space thickness and injected air temperature. But when inside and outside temperature difference of chamber was great, supply of outside air to Air Space had an advantage at reduction of heating load. It was required to examine accurate analysis at a real greenhouse.

  • This study is to determine the severity and direction of the movement of the adjacent tooth into the created space by tooth or teeth loss. The random samples 387 cases (upper; 121 cases, lower; 266 cases) were selected with surveying record under some criteria. Edentulous area is grouped into the free end type and the tooth borne type. The following results were obtained. In the tooth borne type, slight distal movement of the adjacent tooth into the edentulous space was obtained. And the tooth distal to the edentulous space moved into the space in proportion to the duration of the edentulous state. Elongation of the opposing tooth of the free end type was more severe than that of the tooth borne type. And no inter-relationship between the severity of the elongation and the duration of the edentulous state In general, adjacent teeth had normal and mesial inclination. Lower teeth migrated mesially and lingually (especially in the distal tooth to the edentulous space in the tooth borne type). Upper adjacent teeth usually moved into the normal direction.

  • With the Korean VLBI Network (KVN), both single dish and VLBI monitoring observations of H2O and SiO masers were performed toward the semi-regular variable star R Crateris. In the case of 11 VLBI monitoring observations from Jan. 5, 2014 to Jan. 7, 2016, successful superposed maps of H2O and SiO masers were obtained at 7 epochs by adopting the Source Frequency Phase Referencing (SFPR) method. These results enable us to investigate the development of outflow and asymmetric motions from SiO maser to H2O maser regions according to stellar pulsation which are closely related with a mass-loss process. Single dish monitoring observations of H2O and SiO masers were also carried out from 2009 June to 2016 Feb. Intensity variations between H2O and SiO masers were investigated according to stellar optical phases together with peak velocity variations with respect to the stellar velocity. We will compare the VLBI results among different maser transitions with those of single dish.

  • Around the world, there is an increasing interest in Digital Twin cities. Although geospatial data is critical for building a digital twin city, currently-established spatial data cannot be used directly for its implementation. Integration of geospatial data is vital in order to construct and simulate the virtual space. Existing studies for data integration have focused on data transformation. The conversion method is fundamental and convenient, but the information loss during this process remains a limitation. With this, standardization of the data model is an approach to solve the integration problem while hurdling conversion limitations. However, the standardization within indoor space data models is still insufficient compared to 3D building and city models. Therefore, in this study, we present a comparative analysis of data models commonly used in indoor space modeling as a basis for establishing a generic indoor space feature model. By comparing five models of IFC (Industry Foundation Classes), CityGML (City Geographic Markup Language), AIIM (ArcGIS Indoors Information Model), IMDF (Indoor Mapping Data Format), and OmniClass, we identify essential elements for modeling indoor space and the feature classes commonly included in the models. The proposed generic model can serve as a basis for developing further indoor feature models through specifying minimum required structure and feature classes.

  • KVN(Korean VLBI Network) introduced the Mark6 system of the MIT haystack observatory as a recorder for data recording up to 32 Gbps for VLBI(Very Long Baseline Interferometry) observation. The Mark6 recorder can record data at up to 32Gbps when two systems and 64 HDDs are installed. However, because of the unique recording method that is characteristic of Mark6, we are introducing a large amount of data into a virtual file system, or using a general RAID method, which causes data loss when reading and transferring files at the highest recording speed or file system have. The Flexbuff system, a software recorder developed by JIVE(Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC), can be configured to operate as a data recorder through RAID configuration and network upgrades. In particular, when installed in the Mark6 system, it can record VLBI data at a maximum speed of 32 Gbps with less loss of data compared to the existing Mark6 by utilizing Mark6 resources well. In this paper, we propose that the existing Mark6 system can be operated as Mark6-Flexbuff by installing jive5ab software, and it is verified through experiment that it can be effectively used for VLBI observation operation through data recording test.

  • It is a mistaken impression that the midlatitude ionosphere was a very stable region with well-known morphology and physical mechanism. However, the large disturbances of midlatitude ionospheric contents in response to global thermospheric changes during geomagnetic storms are reported in recent studies using global GPS TEC map and space-born thermospheric UV images, and its importance get higher with the increasing application areas of space navigation systems and radio communication which are mostly used in the midlatitudes. Positive and negative storm phases are used to describe increase and decrease of ionospheric electron density. Negative storms result generally from the enhanced loss rate of electron density according to the neutral composition changes which are initiated by Joule heating in high-latitudes during geomagnetic storms. In contrast, positive ionospheric storms have not been well understood because of rare measurements to explain the mechanisms. The large enhancements of ground-based GPS TEC in Korea were observed on 8 and 10 November 2004. The positive ionospheric storm was continued except for dawn on 8 November, and its maximum value is ~65 TECU of ~3 times compared with the monthly mean TEC values. The other positive phase on 10 November begin to occur in day sector and lasted for more than 6 hours. The O/N2 ratios from GUVI/TIMED satellite show ~1.2 in northern hemisphere and ~0.3 in southern hemisphere of the northeast Asian sector on 8 and 10 November. We suggest the asymmetric features of O/N2 ratios in the Northeast Asian sector may play an important role in the measured GPS TEC enhancements in Korea because global thermospheric wind circulation can globally change the chemical composition during geomagnetic storms.
