Signalized intersections are operated without a signal preemption control strategy in Korea, thus there is no priority treatment for an emergency vehicle passing through the intersections. In this paper, a signal preemption control strategy is introduced to improve the safety and operational efficiency of an emergency vehicle. Using the micro simulation tool, the effects on delay and travel speed of the signal preemption control strategy are analyzed for various traffic conditions to identify the general performance trends. Then, another simulation analysis is performed to verify the feasibility of the control strategy using real network data collected from field study. Results show that the preemption control strategy provides the positive impact on emergency vehicles' operation, but the positive impact is reduced as the v/c ratios increase. As expected, the average delays of the normal vehicles are slightly increased, but the magnitude is not significant. Therefore, it is expected that the introduction of the preemption control strategy in Korea would produce the positive social benefits.

Intermodulation distortion degrades the S/N(signal-to-noise) of the original signal and also affects the adjacent channels. Intermodulation distortion is mainly caused by the nonlinear characteristics of the power amplifier. If the power amplifier with nonlinear characteristics has a memory effect, the intermodulation distortions occurred in the power amplifier are generated in various and complex forms. The predistorter is used as a way to improve intermodulation distortions. In order to efficiently utilize the performance of the predistorter, the memory effect of the power amplifier must be reduced. In this paper, we describe the design method of bias circuit to reduce the memory effect in power amplifiers. To reduce the memory effect, the bias circuit must have a high impedance for the signal and a low impedance for the envelope(modulating signal) and the second harmonic component of the signal. To verify the performance of the bias circuit designed considering the memory effect, a power amplifier operating at 170 ~ 220MHz was designed and implemented. The designed bias circuit has a large impedance in the operating frequency band and low impedance in the envelope signal and the second harmonic of the signal. As a result of the performance measurement, it was found that the asymmetric intermodulation distortion component is improved by 3.7dB.

This study deals with the operation effectiveness of roundabout. The objective of this study was to analyze the operational effectiveness of roundabout based on the operation of pedestrian signal. For pursuing the above, VISSIM was as a traffic simulation program. this study gives particular attention to analyzing the 1,680 scenarios by operation of Pedestrian Signal(7 cases), roundabout type(2 cases), pedestrian volume(8 cases) and entering volume(15 cases). The main results analyzed are as follows. First, the operational effectiveness analyzed by 2 type of 4-legged 1-lane roundabout and 6 type of 4-legged 2-lane were evaluated to be better than that by the others type. Second, the average delay time analyzed by operation of pedestrian signal were evaluated to be less than that by unsignalized pedestrian crossing. Finally, the average delay time analyzed by pedestrian crossing were decreased 8.18% than that by staggered pedestrian crossing in 4-legged 1-lane. However, the average delay time analyzed by staggered pedestrian crossing were evaluated to be decreased 36.53% than that by pedestrian crossing in 4-legged 2-lane.

In order to classify and analyze variously compounded sound and voice signal from FPGA microphone, there are numerous systems to detect abnormality signal, however, they have a lot of problems to implement the abnormality signal detection efficiently and effectively. Therefore, we proposed a method that implements classifying the signal effectively and outputting the detection efficiently based on the algorithm applied FIFO structure (First-in First-out) by using microphone sensor which able to input the sound signal, and statistical variance and coefficient of variation (CV). The result showed 96.3% detection when the experiment was performed more than 100 times with the proposed algorithm applied system.

This paper describes the effect of multiple signal regeneration in quadrature digital radio frequency memory(DRFM). Single channel DRFM have good reproducibility after storing a single signal. However, when reproduced after storing multiple signals, the spurious signal is large. The quadrature DRFM consists of I and Q channels, which can greatly reduce the spurious signal. The amplitude of the spurious signal depends on the number of bits of data stored in the DRFM. In this paper, we have obtained the number of bits of signal regeneration according to the application of radio frequency memory by obtaining the size of the spurious signal according to the number of bits of the stored data of the DRFM for multiple signals. As a result of this study, 4 bits quadrature DRFM can achieve a spurious output of less than -20dB, which is used for 4 signals. Those are expected to greatly contribute to the signal analysis of electronic warfare equipment and the development of jamming device.

본 연구에서는 신호원에 대한 사전 정보 없이 혼합된 신호로부터 잡음 신호만을 선택적으로 제거할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 능동 소음 제거기(Active noise canceller)를 제안한다. 음성신호와 같은 독특성을 갖는 신호의 분리에 효과적으로 사용되는 동적 재귀 신경망 (Dynamic recurrent neural network)을 원하는 신호원에 섞인 잡음신호를 분리하여 선택적으로 제거하기 위한 능동소음제거기의 전처리기로 미용한다. 능동 소음 제거기는 분리된 잡음 신호에 대한 역 위상 신호를 적응적으로 발생함으로써 특정 위치에서 원하는 신호만을 선택적으로 남길 수 있도록 한다. 컴퓨터를 이용한 시뮬레이션에서는 제안된 시스템이 선택적인 소음제거에 효과적임을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose a new active noise control system that cancels the only noise signal from the mixture selectively. A blind source separation realized by a dynamic recurrent neural network is used as a preprocessor of the active noise control system and separates the desired signal and the noise signal. The active noise control system adaptively generates an anti-noise signal to remove the only noise signal separated by the blind source separation. Computer simulation results show that the proposed scheme is effective to construct a selective attention system.

The alternative binary offset carrier (AltBOC) signal shares frequency spectrum with the phase shift keying (PSK) signal, enabling us to manage the satellite communication spectrum more efficiently. However, the side-peaks in the AltBOC autocorrelation pose an ambiguity in the AltBOC signal tracking, and consequently, makes the frequency sharing via the AltBOC difficult. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a cancellation scheme of the AltBOC correlation side-peaks. From the numerical results, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme removes the ambiguity in signal tracking caused by the side-peaks completely, and thus, has a much lower tracking error standard deviation (TESD) (i.e., a much better tracking performance) than the conventional scheme.

In this paper, we present a method of transmitting ECG signals in real-time mobile environment to be possible to implement the ubiquitous healthcare system. Because of the excessive amount of data transmission of ECG signals, it is necessary to propose a limitation to the real-time transmission. We propose a real-time electrocardiographic monitoring system based on the proposal of unusual waveform detection algorithm which detects the R-wave distortions from the arrhythmia ECG signals having unusual waveform of about 10% on average. It is very effective in terms of time and cost for medical staffs to monitor and analyze ECG signals for a long period of time. Monitoring unusual waveform by gradually adjusting the threshold values of potential and kurtosis makes the amount of data transmitted decrease and significance level of waveform to be enhanced. The unusual waveform detection algorithm is implemented with ubiquitous environment inter-working device client. It is applicable to ubiquitous healthcare system capable of real-time monitoring the ECG signal. While ensuring the mobility, it allows for real-time continuous monitoring of ECG signals.
