The reduction of energy consumption at the base station (BS) has become more important recently. In this paper, we consider the adaptive muting of the antennas based on the predicted future traffic load to reduce the energy consumption where the number of active antennas is adaptively adjusted according to the predicted future traffic load. Given that traffic load is sequential data, three different RNN structures, namely long-short term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM) are considered for the future traffic load prediction. Through the performance evaluation based on the actual traffic load collected from the Afghanistan telecom company, we confirm that the traffic load can be estimated accurately and the overall power consumption can also be reduced significantly using the antenna musing.

Bridge load rating calculations provide a basis for determining the load carrying capacity of bridges. Load rating requires engineering judgement in determining a rating value that is applicable to maintaining the safe use of the bridge and arriving at posting and permit decisions. Load testing is an effective means in calculating the rating value of bridge. In Korea, load carrying capacity of bridge is modified by response modification factor that is determined from comparisons of measured values and analysis results. This paper presents the development of a method for determining the response the modification factor, using traffic loads. The proposed method is based on the results of computer simulations of traffic action effects. The simulation program generates random traffic actions for defined traffic conditions and determines the frequency distribution of maximum traffic action effects. A comparison between the proposed method and the present method shows good agreement in estimating the modified load carrying capacity of bridges.

본 논문은 복제 패킷을 사용하는 위성 랜덤 액세스 채널에서 bursty 트래픽을 안정적으로 전송하기 위한 트래픽 부하 제어 기법으로 FCC (Fast Congestion Control)을 제안한다. 위성 랜덤 액세스 채널에서 순간적으로 발생하는 bursty 트래픽은 그 양이 많을 경우 충돌 확률로 인하여 backlogged 트래픽이 다수 발생할 수 있다. FCC는 access probability를 통해 트래픽 부하를 제어하며, backlogged 트래픽의 양을 추정한다. 또한 backlogged 트래픽이 최대 처리량에 해당하는 트래픽 부하를 넘어설 경우 빠르게 congestion 상태로 전환한다. Congestion 상태에서는 backlogged 트래픽이 우선적으로 처리되며, 새로 유입되는 트래픽은 congestion 상태가 지속되는 동안 채널에 접속하지 않고 대기하다가 congestion 상태가 종료되는 시점에 채널에 유입된다. Congestion 상태에서 backlogged 트래픽은 신속한 전송을 보장받기 때문에 지연 시간이 단축된다. 따라서 FCC는 긴급성이 요구되는 군 트래픽에 매우 적합한 기술이다. 본 논문은 모의실험을 통해 기존 기법 대비 제안 기법의 우수성을 확인하였다.

Effective link quality estimation is a vital issue for reliable routing in wireless networks. This paper studies the performance of expected transmission count (ETX) under different traffic loads. Although ETX shows good performance under light load, its performance gets significantly worse when the traffic load is high. A broadcast packet storm due to new route discoveries severely affects the link ETX values under high traffic load, which makes it difficult to find a good path. This paper presents the design and implementation of a variation of ETX called high load - ETX (HETX), which reduces the impact of route request broadcast packets to link metric values under high load. We also propose a reliable routing protocol using link quality metrics, which is called link quality distance vector (LQDV). We conducted the evaluation of the performance of three metrics - HETX, ETX and minimum hop-count. The simulation results show that HETX improves the average route throughput by up to 25% over ETX under high traffic load. Minimum hop-count has poor performance compared with both HETX and ETX at all of the different traffic loads. Under light load, HETX and ETX show the same performance.

본 연구에서는 교통시설 하부구조인 옹벽(중력식 옹벽)에 가해지는 수평토압의 크기에 교통하중이 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 교통시설 하부구조인 옹벽에서 상부 교통하중이 옹벽 안전성에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 교통하중으로 인해 옹벽에 유발되는 수평토압은 도로의 차선 수, 차량 하중의 크기 및 옹벽으로부터 떨어진 거리 등의 영향을 받을 것이다. 따라서 이들 변수를 대상으로 수치해석한 결과, 차량하중 이격거리가 옹벽 높이보다 클 경우 수평토압의 변화는 미미하였다. 따라서 상부에 교통하중을 받는 도로옹벽 설계 시 옹벽내측으로부터 교통하중까지의 이격거리가 옹벽의 높이 내의 교통하중만을 고려하는 것이 실용적이고 합리적이다.

The replacement of damaged components is an important task for long-span bridges. Conventional strategy for component replacement is to close the bridge to traffic, so that the influence of the surrounding environment is reduced to a minimum extent. However, complete traffic interruption would bring substantial economic losses and negative social influence nowadays. This paper investigates traffic control technologies without interruption for component replacement of long-span bridges. A numerical procedure of traffic control technologies is proposed incorporating traffic microsimulation and site-specific data, which is then implemented through a case study of cable replacement of a long-span cable-stayed bridge. Results indicate traffic load effects on the bridge are lower than the design values under current low daily traffic volume, and therefore cable replacement could be conducted without traffic control. However, considering a possible medium or high level of daily traffic volume, traffic load effects of girder bending moment and cable force nearest to the replaced cable become larger than the design level. This indicates a potential risk of failure, and traffic control should be implemented. Parametric studies show that speed control does not decrease but increase the load effects, and flow control using lane closure is not effectual. However, weight control and gap control are very effective to mitigate traffic load effects, and it is recommended to employ a weight control with gross vehicle weight no more than 65 t or/and a gap control with minimum vehicle gap no less than 40 m for the cable replacement of the case bridge.

차세대 이동 통신망의 발전으로 상용 망과 이 기종 망이 서로 겹쳐진 다중 망 구조가 형성될 것이다. 이러한 여러 망이 겹쳐진 다중 망 구조에서 전체 무선자원의 사용 효율을 높이고 Eb/Io (bit energy-to-interference plus noise density ratio)를 개선하기 위해 이기종망간 혹은 동종망간 상호 연동 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 동종망과 이기종망들이 서로 겹쳐져 있는 다중 셀 환경에서 load를 효율적으로 분산시킴으로써 무선 자원의 효율을 높이고 신호의 간섭양을 줄여 사용자의 QoS 보장 및 성능 개선을 위한 soft load balancing algorithm을 제안 및 분석한다. 본 논문에서는 수학적 분석을 통해 효율적인 load sharing을 위한 최적의 LBR (load balancing ratio) 을 구하고 이를 이용하여 각 network에 traffic 양을 할당하여 서비스한다. 그러므로 soft load balancing 알고리듬은 보다 안정적인 데이터 전송을 가능하게 한다.

In this paper we proposed a new traffic load shedding scheme which maximizes the throughput of traffic control by decreasing the load of the hot-spot cell using minimum load cell selection (MLCS) algorithm and deployed control flow of calls to define characteristic for hadoff region. we compared the performance of the random shedding approach with that of the proposed algorithm. The results of simulation show that MLCS algorithm minimizes the cal blocking rate under a high-density traffic compared to the random shedding scheme.

The study of rigid roadway pavement under dynamic traffic loads with variable velocity is investigated in this paper. Rigid roadway pavement is modeled as a rectangular damped orthotropic plate supported by elastic Pasternak foundation. The boundary supports of the plate are the steel dowels and tie bars which provide elastic vertical support and rotational restraint. The natural frequencies of the system and the mode shapes are solved using two transcendental equations, obtained from the solution of two auxiliary Levy's type problems, known as the Modified Bolotin Method. The dynamic moving traffic load is expressed as a concentrated load of harmonically varying magnitude, moving straight along the plate with a variable velocity. The dynamic response of the plate is obtained on the basis of orthogonality properties of eigenfunctions. Numerical example results show that the velocity and the angular frequency of the loads affected the maximum dynamic deflection of the rigid roadway pavement. It is also shown that a critical speed of the load exists. If the moving traffic load travels at critical speed, the rectangular plate becomes infinite in amplitude.

최근 들어 중차량의 과적화와 교통량 증가에 따른 교통정체현상의 발생은 세계적인 추세이며, 이에 의한 도로교의 손상은 심각한 상태이다. 도로교의 손상도나 안전수준은 도로교 설계활하중 및 차량하중에 의해 도로교에 발생하는 하중효과의 최대치의 특성과 밀접한 관계를 보이고 있다. 최대차량 하중효과는 단일 중차량에 의해서 발생하는 것보다는 상당한 중량을 가진 차량들이 동시에 제하되어 발생하는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 도로교상에 발생하는 최대차량하중효과를 중요한 교통특성을 합리적으로 반영하여 분석할 수 있는 모의분석기법을 개발하였으며, 개발된 기법을 이용하여 교량형식 및 각종 차량하중특성과 통행특성(중차량 혼입률, 연행특성, 차중모형, 차간거리, 일일교통량 등)에 대한 최대하중효과의 민감도를 분석하였다.
