Line-of-sight communications cannot easily support korean armed forces because of mountainous terrain. ADD(Agency for Defense Development) introduced ANASIS(Army Navy Air-force Satellite Information System) to meet the Korean warfighter's operational needs. Currently, army's military satcom terminal is designed for either fixed site or on-the-pause operation. The US army is under development of multi-band integrated on-the-move satellite terminals to let the army's communication capability to keep pace with globally deployable Joint Task Force for network-centric application. In this paper we analyzed X-band and Ka-band link and subsystem requirement. Our focus here is to describe key technical issues. Especially, On the basis of 3dB beam width of 0.9m antenna, Tracking accuracy and disturbances compensation signal processing on-the-move of Antenna Tracking system is analyzed. Also, protocol is analyzed that minimize blockage on the move due to an obstacle. when the received signal blocked, it stop to transmit burst signal and retransmit when blockage removed through received synchronization signal monitoring. Analyzed specification will be used to make prototype terminal to analyze risk for mass production

We design CNN(convolutional neural network) which is applicable to steering control system of autonomous vehicle. CNN has been widely used in many fields, especially in image classifications. But CNN has not been applied much to the regression problem such as function approximation. This is because the input of CNN has a multidimensional data structure such as image data, which makes it is not applicable to general control systems. Recently, autonomous vehicles have been actively studied, and many techniques are required to implement autonomous vehicles. For this purpose, many researches have been studied to detect the lane by using the image through the black box mounted on the vehicle, and to get the vanishing point according to the detected lane for control the autonomous vehicle. However, in detecting the vanishing point, it is difficult to detect the vanishing point with stability due to various factors such as the external environment of the image, disappearance of the instant lane and detection of the opposite lane. In this study, we apply CNN for steering control of an autonomous vehicle using a black box image of a car.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a method for estimation of reliable path-travel time using data obtained from the toll collection system on freeways. The toll collection system records departure and arrival time stamps as well as the identification numbers of arrival and destination tollgates for all the individual vehicles traveling between tollgates on freeways. Two major issues reduce accuracy when estimating path-travel time between an origin and destination tollgate using transaction data collected by the toll collection system. First, travel time calculated by subtracting departure time from arrival time does not explain path-travel time from origin tollgate to destination tollgate when a variety of available paths exist between tollgates. Second, travel time may include extra time spent in service and/or rest areas. Moreover. ramp driving time is included because tollgates are installed before on-ramps and after off-ramps. This paper describes an algorithm that searches for arrival time when departure time is given between tollgates by a Progressive Iterative Forward and Backward (PIFAB) search method. The algorithm eventually produces actual path-travel times that exclude any time spent in service and/or rest areas as well as ramp driving time based on a link-based procedure.

안테나 단에서 직접 수신 신호의 디지털화가 이루어지고 그 해당 신호의 처리는 고속 디지털 신호처리기 내에서 소프트웨어로 수행되는 방식을 SWR(Software Radio)이라 한다. 그러나 현재의 기술 수준을 감안하여 보다 현실적인 SDR(Software Defined Radio) 정의가 필요하게 되었다. SDR이란 수신신호의 디지털화가 안테나 이하의 임의의 단(IF단)에서 이루어지는 무선으로 정의된다. 물론 A/D변환기등의 기술이 더욱 발전되면 궁극적으로는 SWR로 진화될 것이다. 그러면 SDR은 왜 필요한 것일까? 현재 사용중인 이동통신 단말기의 단점은 어느 한 표준 또는 방식에 종속되어 언제 어디서나 임의의 시스템에 접속되어 사용하기에는 많은 기술 종속적인 문제 및 제약을 내포하며, 사용방식에 따른 시스템의 유연성이 없고, 상용 서비스 도중에 발생되는 단말기 문제의 해결(recall service)이 어렵고, 많은 기술료를 지불해야 한다는 것이다. 부연하면 CDMA 셀룰라의 경우 퀄컴 등의 특정한 회사에 의해 기술이 폐쇠되어, 정보의 흐름이 자유스럽지 못할 뿐더러, 이로 인해 기술진화가 보다 빠르게 진행되지 못하고, 전세계적으로 많은 새로운 우수 제품의 출연에 제약이 가해진다는 것이다. 따라서 SDR(Software Defined Radion)을 도입, 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어를 개방형 구조(open architecture)로 개발한다면 정보의 흐름을 자유롭게 할 수 있고, 이로 인하여 세계적으로 다양한 신제품의 개발이 촉진되고 결과적으로 전세계 시장이 커지게 되는 일석이조의 효과를 얻을 수 있게 된다. 또한 이 같은 개방형 단말기 개발의 필요성은 최근 시장동향으로 볼 때, 기존의 단말기 회사 입장에서는 새로운 수익 모델이 필요한 시점이고, 또한 2002년경에 판매되는 단말기의 80%정도는 멀티모드타입 단말기일 것으로 예측되는 점, 그리고 금년말까지 100개 회사 이상이 SDR 포럼 멤버로 가입할 것으로 예측되는 점, 무선 인터넷 폭발적인 성장으로 복합 멀티미디어 단말기 시대가 다가오는 점 등으로 미루어 볼 때, 고객의 서비스 가치선택에 역점을 둔 기술을 중시해야 한다는 점에서 더욱 설득력을 지닌다. 따라서 이 같은 목적과 3세대 이동통신 및 인터넷 사용자의 증가, 반도체기술의 발전에 힘입어, 과거 군용 시스템에서 이용되던 SWR 기술을 상용시스템 특히 3세대 이동통신에 적용하려는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. '96년 SDR 포럼이 결성되었는데, 목적은 휴대형 장치(hand-held devices), 기지국(base stations), 차량형 장치(mobile stations)를 포함하는 다중모드(multi-mode), 다중대역(multi-band) SDR을 위한 개방형 구조의 표준을 정하기 위함이다. 이 같이 public forum에 의한 표준(open architecture standard)이 정해지면 그 다음은 이를 어떻게 구현할 것인가가 문제가 될 것이다. 본고에서는 먼저 SDR 단말기 요구사항을 살펴보고, 이 요구사항들을 만족하는 SDR 단말기 구조, SDR 계층참조 모델, 그리고 기존의 단말기 구조와 SDR 계층참조 모델의 연관관계에 대해 살펴보고, 크게 두가지 종류의 단말기 즉 사용 SDR 단말기와 군용 SDR 단말기에 대해 살펴보고, 설계 절차 및 현재 시점에서 단말기 구현을 위해 해결해야 하는 기술적 과제를 살펴보고 결론을 언급한다.

This study proposed a method to determine the number and location of bus information terminals (BIT), which is a device to provide passengers with bus arrival time at bus stops in a Bus Information System (BIS). In low-density area, it is not efficient to survey bus demands such as the number of passengers at all bus stops due to time and cost. This kind of a survey would, however, competently cover all bus stops if performed inside the bus. The number of riding-on and -off passengers is observed for every bus stop, and this data collection is repeated over all day. Data obtained from the survey are aggregated each bus stop. This study defines Utility Index (UI), an aggregate each bus stop. Bus stops are ranked according to UI and determined for a BIT within budget limitation. As a case study, a bus line in Jeju island, Korea, was dealt with. This case showed that the more aggregate the better data quality. This study is expected to contribute to solving a location problem of BITs in a BIS.

GPS (Global Positioning System) made by the Department of Defense in U.S.A is positioning system to use satellite and initially it has been used only for the military forces but open to civilian in about 1987. This system has widely been used for not only surveying land, but also car navigation on the street and means to build up the data of the GIS. With GPS, recently our country is accelerating to make imbeded system and also the study on imbeded system is well under way. For example, Car navigation and the construction of the Seokang bridge between Willson Arch at Han river by using DGPS were evaluated as successful model to lead accurate location with the precision of the cm. The examples of the project performance with GPS has gradually been extended to the each department organization of the local and central government. for the example, It is true that BIS(Bus Information System) is widely spreading out. In addition, the study on the Distribution Maintenance System is expected to be well in progress to take advantage of GPS based on the data base of the NGIS(National Geography Institute System) of the NGI(National Geography Institute). This paper shows that we embodied not only the large imbeded system for car and finding the location in Korean Land Corporation but also the protype of the kinematics Wrist Held which is easily portable to pedestrian, climber and marathon runner.

IP-based Wireless Sensor Networks (IP-WSNs) are gaining importance for their broad range of applications in health-care, home automation, environmental monitoring, industrial control, vehicle telematics and agricultural monitoring. In all these applications, mobility in the sensor network with special attention to energy efficiency is a major issue to be addressed. Because of the energy inefficiency of networks-based mobility management protocols can be supported in IP-WSN. In this paper we propose a network based mobility supported IP-WSN protocol called Multicasting-based inter-Domain Mobility Management Scheme in Sensor-based Fast Proxy Mobile IPv6 Networks (mSFP). Based on [8,20], We present its network architecture and evaluate its performance by considering the signaling and mobility cost. Our analysis shows that the proposed scheme reduces the signaling cost, total cost, and mobility cost. With respect to the number of IP-WSN nodes, the proposed scheme reduces the signaling cost by 7% and the total cost by 3%. With respect to the number of hops, the proposed scheme reduces the signaling cost by 6.9%, the total cost by 2.5%, and the mobility cost by 1.5%. With respect to the number of IP-WSN nodes, the proposed scheme reduces the mobility cost by 1.6%.

Aggressive driving is a major cause of car accidents. Previous studies have mainly analyzed young driver's aggressive driving tendency, yet they were only done through pure clustering or classification technique of machine learning. However, since elderly people have different driving habits due to their fragile physical conditions, it is necessary to develop a new method such as enhancing the characteristics of driving data to properly analyze aggressive driving of elderly drivers. In this study, acceleration data collected from a smartphone of a driving vehicle is analyzed by a newly proposed ECA(Enhanced Clustering method for Acceleration data) technique, coupled with a conventional clustering technique (K-means Clustering, Expectation-maximization algorithm). ECA selects high-intensity data among the data of the cluster group detected through K-means and EM in all of the subjects' data and models the characteristic data through the scaled value. Using this method, the aggressive driving data of all youth and elderly experiment participants were collected, unlike the pure clustering method. We further found that the K-means clustering has higher detection efficiency than EM method. Also, the results of K-means clustering demonstrate that a young driver has a driving strength 1.29 times higher than that of an elderly driver. In conclusion, the proposed method of our research is able to detect aggressive driving maneuvers from data of the elderly having low operating intensity. The proposed method is able to construct a customized safe driving system for the elderly driver. In the future, it will be possible to detect abnormal driving conditions and to use the collected data for early warning to drivers.

최근 Mg, Mg-Al합금, Al은 전자제품의 케이스, 차량의 휠 등의 신소재로서 활용성이 높아 사회적 수요가 급격히 늘고 있다. 이러한 수요 증가와 함께 관련 사업장에서는 취급 과정에서 폭발사고 위험성이 높아지고 있는데, 2010년도에는 국내 사업장에서 금속 분진에 의한 폭발사고가 4건이 발생하여 인명 및 재산피해가 발생하였다. Mg-Al합금의 폭발사고로 사망 1명과 부상 2명이 발생하였으며, Al분진의 폭발사고는 3건이 발생하여 사망 2명과 부상 3명의 인명피해로 이어졌다. 사고조사를 통하여 사업장에서의 금속분진에 대한 위험인식이 매우 낮은 것이 유사 사고가 반복되고 있는 가장 큰 이유로 알려지고 있는데, 이는 금속분진에 대한 부족한 안전기술정보와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 본 연구에서는 Mg, Mg-Al합금, Al등을 취급하는 관련 사업장에서 폭발사고 예방대책을 위하여 활용할 수 있는 폭발특성에 관한 안전기술정보 제공을 목적으로 하고 있다. 보다 구체적으로는 사고 다발 금속분진에 대한 위험성 이해에 도움을 될 수 있도록 동일 입경분포 조건에서의 위험성을 정량적으로 평가하였으며, 이를 위하여 각 금속분진의 동일 입경 조건에서 최대폭발압력, 폭발하한계 등의 폭발위험성 데이터를 실험적으로 조사 하였다. 조사한 시료는 평균입경 200 mesh의 Al, Mg, Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)로서 입도분석기(Beckman Coulter LSI 3320)를 사용하여 측정한 결과 평균입경은 약 $155{\mu}m$로 나타났다. Al분진의 농도변화에 따른 폭발압력을 조사한 결과, 최대폭발압력(Pmax)은 7.9 bar였으며 최대폭발압력상승속도 (dt/dP)max는 농도 $1500[g/m^3]$에서 322 [bar/s]로 최대가 되었으며 폭발 하한계(LEL)는 $70[g/m^3]$가 얻어졌다. 반면에 순수한 Mg의 LEL은 $30[g/m^3]$였으며 Pmax는 6.4 bar, (dP/dt)max는 100 [bar/s]가 얻어졌다. 이러한 결과로부터 LEL이 낮은 Mg는 Al보다 연소성이 큰 것으로 나타났으며, Al은 화염을 유지하는데 필요한 최저 열분해 가스농도를 확보하는데 Mg보다도 고농도의 분진이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)의 LEL은 $50g/m^3$이었으며 Pmax는 9.4 bar, (dP/dt)max는 472 [bar/s]가 얻어졌다. 이러한 결과로부터 Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)합금의 연소성을 살펴보면 착화하기 쉬운 정도는 Mg와 Al의 성분비에 의해 변화하지만 Mg와 Al의 중간 정도로 나타나는 반면, Pmax는 Mg 또는 Al의 단독 물질 성분보다도 매우 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 단일 성분의 Mg와 Al보다도 Mg와 Al이 일정 비율로 구성된 Mg-Al합금의 경우가 화재폭발 위험성이 증가한다는 사실을 알 수 있었으며, 이와 같은 폭발위험특성 자료를 활용하여 분진의 보관, 취급, 폐기 등의 지속적 관리가 필요하며 사업장 특성에 적합한 안전대책을 통한 사고예방대책이 요구된다.
