In the environment with multiple heterogeneous wireless sensor networks with a single point of sensed data collection or a gateway (GW), relay points (RPs) may be required for the energy efficient delivery of sensed data from static or mobile sinks to the GW. The optimal placement of RPs becomes an even more difficult problem if static sinks are dynamically added or the trajectory of mobile sinks can not be known in advance. In order to resolve this problem, we propose a mechanism to deploy RPs in a grid pattern and to use the tree-based relaying network for reducing the cost of the RP and for reducing the control overhead incurred by the route setup from sinks to the GW. For the performance evaluation of our proposed mechanism, we have carried out a numerical analysis on a single route setup from a sink to the GW and, for more general performance evaluations, ns-2 based simulations have been carried out. According to the performance evaluation results, our tree-based relaying network mechanism outperforms that based on AODV in terms of the data delivery time, the network service time and the control overhead.

Using Lowson's acoustic analogy, low frequency noise of a wind turbine (WT) is predicted in time domain and the noise sources contributing to the low frequency noise is analyzed. To compute averaged pressure distribution on blades of the WT as noise source, XFOIL is utilized. The blade source domain is divided into several segments along the span direction to compute force exerted on air surrounding the blade segments, which is used as input for noise prediction. The noise sources are decomposed into three terms of force fluctuation, acceleration and velocity terms and are analyzed to investigate each spectral contribution. Finally, predicted spectra are compared with measured low frequency noise spectrum of a wind turbine in operation. It is found that the force fluctuation component contributes strongly in low frequency range with increasing wind speed.

In order to apply to land mine detection effectively, GPR using an optical electric field sensor as a receiver has been developed. The optical electric field sensor is very small and uses optical fiber instead of metallic coaxial cable. With the combination of these advantages and the bistatic radar system, it can be possible for an operator to measure quite flexible and safely. The sensor has been tested in stepped frequency radar system with frequency which consists of a vector network analyzer, a fixed double ridged horn antenna as transmitter. For considering effectiveness in real field, we applied impulse radar system, which consist of a digital oscilloscope and a impulse generator to produce the impulse. Detection of a PMN2 mine model was carried out by the impulse radar system at a sand pit. The PMN2 were detected clearly with sufficiently high resolution, the target contrast was almost the same while the scanning time decreased down to 1/100.

Various multimedia systems have been developed and their application areas widely proliferate. Thus, the interoperability is getting important among various networks and devices. The video transcoding is a technology to solve this interoperability problem among various coding standards. Transcoding can be defined as the conversion of one compressed coded data to another. In this paper, MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 transcoder in the spatial domain is compared with that in the DCT domain. The transcoder is very useful when a video sequence that is originally encoded for digital TV, DVD or satellite broadcasting is served in mobile environment. In order to compare two transcoders, all modules except motion compensation and down sampling are implemented identically. In addition, both transcoders do not search for motion vector. Instead, the decoded information is reused to the encoder. The experimental results show that the transcoder in the spatial domain is usually better than that in the DCT domain with respect to PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio), bitrate and execution time.

In this study, the genetic algorithm has been used for the real-time defect diagnosis on the operation of the aircraft gas-turbine engine. The component elements of the gas-turbine engine for consideriation of the performance deterioration is consist of the compressor, the gas generation turbine and the power turbine, repectively. Compared to the on-design point on the sea-level condition, the learning data has been increased 200 times in case of the off-design conditions for the altitude, the flight mach number and the fuel consumption. Therefore, enormous learning time has been required for the satisfied convergence. The optimum division has been proposed to decrease learning time as well as to obtain high accuracy. As results, the RMS errors of the defect diagnosis using the genetic algorithm have been estimated under 5 %.

This paper introduces the high-resolution channel estimation technique which are used to estimate the first arrival multipath delay component. The proposed technique yields the precise estimate of the first time arrival which is directly related to the performance of TDOA-based position location. The proposed technique utilizes the transformed auto-correlation function of received common pilot signal in frequency domain, its samples compose the hermitian Toeplitz matrix at sequel. Then the time delay components could be estimated with precision by the analysis of eigen-structure of corresponding matrix. In this paper, obeying the modified CODIT model, the performance of the PR-IPDL(Pseudo Random-Idle Period Downlink) and TA-IPDL(Time Aligned-Idle Period Downlink considered as 3GPP position location technique will be exploited systematically through the computer simulations with applying the proposed technique.

In this paper, we investigate a spectrum sharing scheme based on the interference temperature (IT), that is a recently introduced receiver-centric metric by FCC. We extend the existing frequency sharing procedure for single CR to the one for multiple CRs (or secondary users, SUs). In the proposed interference model, we consider the practical operating characteristics of primary users (PUs), stochastically activated (ON)/deactivated (OFF) at the time axis, and analyze quantitatively the CR user capacity based on the model. We define the instantaneous capacity for idle time-slot channel allocation and the mean capacity averaging this instantaneous capacity and use them for a proper frequency sharing. Apart from existing schemes, the proposed frequency sharing scheme changes the frequency parameters adaptively depending on the channel characteristics and does not need any sensing information from PUs. Through computer simulation, we verify the proposed model.

With the development of information technology, the scale of computer software system is constantly expanding. Reliability and cost of software development have a great impact on software quality. In this study, based on the software failure interval time data, a comparative analysis was performed on the characteristics of the software development cost model based on the lifetime distribution following the Type-2 Gumbel and Erlang distribution in the NHPP model. As a result, the trends of the cost curves for the Go-Okumoto model and the proposed Erlang model and the Type-2 Gumble model both decreased in the initial stage and gradually increased in the latter half of the failure time. Also, Comparing the Erlang model with the Type-2 Gumble model, we found that the Erlang model is faster and more cost-effective at launch. Through this study, Software operators should remove possible defects from the testing phase rather than the operational phase to reduce defects after the software release date, it is expected to be able to study the prior information needed to understand the characteristic of software development cost.
