A lot of lipreading system has been proposed to compensate the rate of speech recognition dropped in a noisy environment. Previous lipreading systems work on some specific conditions such as artificial lighting and predefined background color. In this paper, we propose a real-time lipreading system which allows the motion of a speaker and relaxes the restriction on the condition for color and lighting. The proposed system extracts face and lip region from input video sequence captured with a common PC camera and essential visual information in real-time. It recognizes utterance words by using the visual information in real-time. It uses the hue histogram model to extract face and lip region. It uses mean shift algorithm to track the face of a moving speaker. It uses PCA(Principal Component Analysis) to extract the visual information for learning and testing. Also, it uses HMM(Hidden Markov Model) as a recognition algorithm. The experimental results show that our system could get the recognition rate of 90% in case of speaker dependent lipreading and increase the rate of speech recognition up to 40～85% according to the noise level when it is combined with audio speech recognition.

CWR (continuous welded rail) tracks on high-speed railway bridges have much more complicated axial force distributions caused by track-bridge interaction than those behaviors on embankments, and additional problems caused by track-structure interaction with the axial force of the CWR. In order to analyze and limit other physical phenomena caused by track-bridge interaction, a design guideline (KR C-08080, longitudinal track-bridge interaction analysis) is used when designing CWR track on bridges. Domestic analysis and design methods for track-bridge interaction follow the UIC 774-3R, and they suggest conservative methods and deterministic properties. Recently, many studies analyzing the methods of track-bridge interaction considering the loading history are being carried out; however, there has been insufficient studies of the variation of the resistance properties with a consideration of the actual loading history. In this study, the performances of rail fastening systems used for concrete track on bridges were tested and analyzed while considering the loading history. For this purpose, longitudinal and vertical loading combinations, applied in order to simulate the practical conditions and resistance characteristics (stiffness and elastic limit displacement), are analyzed through the experimental results. Also, a comparison study was conducted with the properties in the KR Code.

Communication underwater is severely limited when compared to communications in air because water is essentially opaque to electromagnetic radiation except in visible range. Acoustic systems are capable of long range communication, but offer limited data rates and significant latency due to the speed of sound in water. On the other hand, optical wireless communication has been proposed as one of the best alternatives to meet the requirements of the underwater observation and subsea monitoring systems. It will help In this study, we are developing an underwater optical communication system that integrates with a depot ship floating on the water. An interface between LED lighting communication system and Bluetooth module is presented to support the underwater-to-air communications. Error free image and text transmission at 3 m of water were achieved at bit rates of 230.4 kbps. This development effort will enhance infrastructure to efficiently interconnect between underwater wireless systems and command ship networks for underwater monitoring.

Currently the quality of construction drawings is deteriorated due to restrictions on time costs allowed to the design phase. Moreover shop drawings are arbitrarily produced without the standard criteria, and cleared off after the completion of construction. As a result, the information of produced shop drawings is not feedback to the design phase, and the quality of the construction drawings become worse. This study proposes checklists that include information requested at construction sites and the shop drawings as well as the existing checklists for the construction drawings. The checklists integrate designer's check-items according to breakdown of drawings and contractor's check-items base don construction process. Index matrices of the integrated checklists is developed for practical application of the checklists, and validated through intensive interview with design and construction practitioners.

In this study, we developed a simulation app that performs the Test-and-Set algorithm. The test-and-set algorithm is a highly difficult algorithm, so this simulation app was created for learners who have difficulty understanding it. Learners who want to understand the Test-and-Set algorithm gather to form a team, and use this simulation app to discuss and practice, and these teams can practice at the same time. The test-and-set, which is assumed to be a machine language, is not interrupted by using a queue, and it can be seen that the configured simulation app performs well in all three conditions of 'mutual exclusion', 'progress', and 'bounded waiting' that must be solved in the critical area problem.

최근 기기간의 접속에 적합한 근거리 무선 접속기술의 요구가 증대됨에 따라, 그 요구에 대응하는 무선통신기술의 하나로 UWB(Ultra Wide Band)가 주목을 받고 있다. 특히, TV와 캠코더, 카메라 등의 AV기기 상호 간의 무선접속을 포함하여 PC나 휴대정보단말(PDA) 등이 네트워크에 무선으로 접속하는데 UWB 기술은 주요한 역할을 담당할 것으로 예상된다. 최근 서비스가 진행되고 있는 HDTV를 비롯하여 향후 UHDTV(Ultra-HDTV) 등의 방송시스템이 본격화되면 HD급 이상의 캠코더는 고해상도에 따른 대용량 데이터를 저장하고 AV기기 간의 데이터 전송을 위해 고속 무선 데이터 전송이 필수적이다. 또한 이와 같은 고속 무선데이터 전송을 위해서는 보다 안정된 송수신 기술이 절대적으로 필요하다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 차세대 UWB의 설계 제약조건 중 하나인 저전력 송신환경에서 수신 신뢰도의 향상을 이루기 위해 LDPC code를 오류정정부호로 고려하고, 제한된 반복복호 횟수를 가지고 개선된 성능을 얻기 위해 새로운 복호 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한, 제안한 복호 알고리즘에 대해 모의실험을 통하여 성능을 검증함으로써 차세대 UWB 송수신 기술로서의 유용성과 적용 가능성을 제시하였다.

Since radio interference can degrade the performance of systems or limit the system operation, an accurate assessment of radio interference with the existing systems should be conducted prior to the operation of a new system. In this paper, we present an evaluation methodology for the radio interference between radio-navigation satellite service (RNSS) systems and mobile communication service (MS) system. Radio interferences from RNSS systems into MS system using minimum coupling loss (MCL) method are simulated and vice-versa, and the frequency sharing condition between two systems are derived in a same geographical area.

A new treatment of cell-interface flux in AUSM-type methods is introduced to reduce the numerical dissipation. Through analysis of TVD limiters, a criterion for the more accurate prediction of cell-interface state is found out and M-AUSMPW+ is developed by determining the transferred property newly and appropriately within the criterion. The superiority of M-AUSMPW+ is clearly revealed in multi-dimensional flow problems. It can eliminate numerical dissipation effectively in a non-flow aligned grid system. As a result, M-AUSMPW+ is shown to be much more accurate and effective than other previous schemes in multi-dimensional problems. Through a stationary contact discontinuity, a vortex flow, a shock wave/boundary layer interactions and viscous shock tube problems, it is verified that accuracy of M-AUSMPW+ is improved.

A compressible multiphase flow was investigated using a DIM consisting of seven equations, including the fifth-order MLP and a modified HLLC Riemann solver to achieve a precise interface structure of liquid and gas. The numerical methods were verified by comparing the flow structures of the high-pressure water and low-pressure air in the shock tube. A 2D air-helium shock-bubble interaction at the incident shock wave condition (Mach number 1.22) was numerically solved and verified using the experimental results.

This paper describes the optimized output performances such as output power and the third order intermodulation in GaN high power transistor packages which consist of chip die, chip capacitors, and wire bonding. The optimized output power according to wire bonding techniques, and third order intermodulation performances according to wire bonding and bias conditions are discussed. In addition, it is shown through the nonlinear simulation that how the output performances are sensitive to the inductance values which are realized by wire bonding for matching network in the limited package area.
