Dual energy cone-beam CT can distinguish two materials with different atomic compositions. The principle of dual energy cone-beam CT based on modulation layer is that higher energy spectrum can be acquired at blocked x-ray window. To evaluate the possibility of modulation layer based dual energy cone-beam CT, we analyzed x-ray spectrum for various thicknesses of modulation layers by Monte Carlo simulation. To compare with the results of simulation, the experiment was performed on prototype cone-beam CT for 50~100 kVp with CdTe XR-100T detector. As the result of comparing, the mean energy of energy spectrum for 80 kVp are well matched with that of simulation. The mean energy of energy spectrum for 80 and 120 kVp were increased as 1.67 and 1.52 times by 2.0 mm modulation layer, respectively. We realized that the virtual dual energy x-ray source can be generated by modulation layer.

In this paper, the effective transmission method is proposed to save the energy and to increase the throughput of the communication system using adaptive modulation. Traditionally, adaptive modulation has been used to improve the throughput using the power margin of the system design. Considering the instantaneous energy during the modulation method changing duration, the effective transmission method is proposed. By the simulation, the performance and effectiveness is validated.

본 논문에서는 디지털 영상의 변조를 확인함과 동시에 변조의 위치를 확인하는 연성 워터마킹(fragile watermarking)을 위하여 DCT를 통해 블록의 에너지를 계산한 후, 에너지의 단계별로 워터마크의 삽입량을 조절하는 방법을 제안한다. 디지털 영상의 소유권 확인을 위해 디지털 서명을 사용하며, 영상에 DCT를 수행함으로서 모든 픽셀에 워터마크를 삽입하지 않고서도 변조의 유무를 확인하는 것이 가능하 방식이다. DCT 계수로 각 블록의 에너지를 계산하여 블록의 관계를 분류하며 에너지가 작은 블록들과 큰 블록들은 이간의 시각에 민감한 부분이므로 워터마크의 삽입 양을 줄이고, 중간 단계의 블록일수록 워터마크의 삽입 양을 늘린다. 에너지의 단계 분류에 의해 가변적으로 워터마크를 삽입함으로 워터마크의 비가시성과 연성을 만족시키며 변조의 유무와 위치를 확인할 수 있게 된다.

In relay networks, relay nodes amplify or demodulate/remodulate the received signal from the transmitter, and transmit that signal to the receiver. The received signals from several relays are combined and used for demodulation at the receiver, which enhances the performance of the overall system. Partially differential modulation scheme which uses coherent modulation at the relay and non-coherent modulation scheme at the receiver is adopted for modulation scheme. We analyze the performance of systems depending on various energy allocations of source and relays given the total energy in relay networks.

Traditionally, adaptive modulation has been used to improve the throughput using the power margin of the system design. Considering the frame length vs energy saving and adaptive modulation, the optimum transmission method is proposed for hub and mobile station each.

Cooperative networks enhance the performance of communication systems by combining received signals from the several relay nodes where the source node transmits signals to relay nodes. In this paper, we analyze the effect of resource allocation in cooperative networks. We assume that the cooperative networks use the conventional modulation scheme between the source and relay nodes, and adopt space-time code between the relays and destination node. Both the synchronous and differential modulations are applied for the conventional scheme and differential modulation is used for the space-time code. We consider relay location and energy allocation for resource allocation, and the performance of cooperative networks depending on the number of relay is also investigated.

동시 증발법(co-evaporation)에 의해 성장된 $CuIn_xGa_{1-x}Se_2$ (CIGS) 박막의 광학적 특성을 photoreflectance (PR) 분광법으로 연구하였다. 조성비 x는 0~1까지 변화시켰다. 시료의 두께는 약 2.2 ${\mu}m$였다. PR 측정은 변조빔 세기, 변조빔 주파수 및 온도의 함수로 조사하였다. PR 스펙트럼으로부터 조성비 x가 증가함에따라 시료의 띠간격 에너지가 증가하는 것을 관측하였다. 상온 PR 스펙트럼으로부터 시료내에 형성된 내부 전기장을 구하였다. 그리고 변조빔 세기의 증가에 따른 PR 신호의 세기는 점차 증가하는 반면에, 변조 주파수를 증가시킴에 따라 신호의 세기가 점차 감소함을 보였다. PR 신호의 온도 의존성 실험으로부터 띠간격 에너지의 변화 및 Varshni 계수 등을 구하여 CIGS 시료의 특성을 조사하였다.

Since the wireless smart card has played a main role in the identification security application for the building access; this research has its purpose to improve the performance of the smart card system and aims to offer more convenient to user. The contactless cards do not require insertion into a card reader and can work up to centimeters away from the reading device. To be able to cope with this performance the controlling of power consumption through the adaptive modulation and error control is needed. This paper addresses a forward error control (FEC) scheme with the adaptive Reed-Solomon code rate and an M-ary frequency shift keying (M-FSK) modulation scheme with the varying symbol size M over the link. The result of comparing energy efficiencies of adaptive error correction and adaptive modulation to other various static schemes shows to save over 50% of the energy consumption.

최근 화석연료의 고갈 및 이산화탄소의 증가로 인한 신재생에너지의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 태양광에너지와 풍력에너지는 신재생에너지 발전 중에서 대부분을 차지하고 있으며, 이러한 에너지를 필요한 형태인 전기에너지로 변환하기 위해서는 인버터가 필수적이다. 인버터의 PWM 기법은 지난 수년간 인버터의 핵심요소로써 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 다양한 PWM 기법의 선택에 따라 인버터의 특성 및 성능이 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 인버터의 특성을 개선하기 위해 새로운 가변주파수 변조기법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 기존방식에 비해 스위칭 횟수를 줄임으로서 스위칭 손실을 줄이고 효율을 향상 시킬 수 있다. 제안된 방식은 PSIM 시뮬레이션을 통하여 풀 브리지 단상인버터에 적용하여 타당성을 검증하였다.

This study carried out an experiment to identify subject's work effectiveness and energy saving effect using LED light. Towards this end, this study configured nine various lighting environments in order to control PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) and illuminance (lux), which are the characteristics of LED light. The PWM ratio of LED light was set as R:G:B=1:1:1, R:G:B=4:1:5, and R:G:B=8:7:7, respectively, and illuminance (lux) was set as 400 lx, 700 lx, and 1000 lx, respectively. In addition, the indoor environment was set temperature $20-24^{\circ}C$, humidity 50%-60%, and the amount of clothing 1. This study analyzed work effectiveness and energy consumption in nine lighting environments, each. Error correction was performed for work effectiveness analysis, and cumulative power consumption was measured in each lighting environment for energy consumption analysis. According to experiment results through the lighting environments suggested in this study, accuracy and spent time effectiveness were good in 700lux and higher than 400lux. For spent time, the best effectiveness was revealed in the suggested PWM ratio, R:G:B=8:7:7. The lowest power consumption on each illuminance (lux) was revealed in the order of R:G:B=8:7:7, RGB=1:1:1, and R:G:B=4:1:5. Therefore, pulse-width modulation effect is proposed in this paper was found to affect the efficiency and energy saving.
