The aim of this paper is to clarify the structural performance of RC beams strengthened with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer(CFRP) plates using channel-type anchorage system. Twelve RC beams were specifically designed without and with a channel-type anchorage system, which was carefully detailed to enhance the benefits of the strengthening plates. All the twelve beams were identical in terms of their geometry but varied in their internal reinforcement, concrete strength. All the beams were tested under four point bending and extensively instrumented to monitor strains, cracking, load capacity and failure modes. The structural response of all the twelve beams is then critically analyzed in terms of deformability, strength and failure processes. It is shown that with a channel-type anchorage system, a brittle debonding failure of a strengthened beam can be transformed to an almost ductile failure with well-defined enhancement of structural performance in terms of both deformation and strength.

In this paper, we have fabricated asymmetric Y-branch optical power splitters with various optical power splitting ratios by changing the width of one of the output waveguides using $Ag^+-Na^+$ ion change method in BK7 glass. The transmission characteristics of asymmetric Y-branch optical power splitters with different output waveguide width have been investigated using the finitedifference beam propagation method (FD-BPM). We have found the index of the channel waveguide formed by Ag+-Na+ ion change method in BK7 glass and have fabricated channel waveguides to examine the transmission characteristics of channel waveguide. And we have fabricated asymmetric Y-branch optical power splitters with output waveguide width from TEX>$4{\mu}m$ to $6{\mu}m$. /TEX>.

As accelerates the technical evolution of high-speed network and progresses the digitalization of broadcasting network, TV channel service through satellite/cable/terrestrial networks becomes more stable and mature. However, TV channel service using IP network such as IPTV is recently emerging. Especially, when it comes to current mosaic EPG(Electronic Program Guide) as a channel guide, the implementation of EPG via IP network is under developing. Furthermore, the personal target mosaic EPG is not provided at all in the IPTV. This paper proposes a construction method of mosaic system which can support fixed and personalized mosaic EPG using IP network for viewers. The fixed mosaic EPG is made several steps as follows ; First, H/E generates several mosaic A/V streams. Then, which are transmitted to the STB in terms of multicasting via IP network. Finally, mosaic EPG is displayed on TV through STB. In addition, this paper describes a construction model of the personalized A/V mosaic EPG that represents each person's favorite channels according to their tastes and interests. As for the contributions. The TV channel guide using IP network enable viewer to select channel more easily with practical adaptation of multi-channel expansibility and sufficient usability. In addition, through personal mosaic EPG, a number of viewers can compose their own mosaic EPG and enjoy a variety of channel easily in accordance with their preferences. Finally, the personal mosaic EPG can prohibit non-adult users from connecting adult-only contents more efficiently.

The compressible flow of reactive fluid is investigated by using the transonic small-disturbance (TSD) model and the one-step first-order Arrhenuis chemical reaction. The fluid flow is restricted to dilute premixed reactions with small heat release. The effects of channel shape and Mach number on transonic combustion are studied by numerical analysis. The results show that the channel divergence increases the chemical reaction within the given channel length whereas the channel convergence inhibits the chemical reaction near the outlet and that increasing the inlet flow Mach number at a fixed reaction rate causes the flow acceleration in a diverging channel and the appearance of weak shock waves which do not show in the inert flow case. It also helps to increase the pressure and temperature near the diverging channel outlet and to consume the reactant within the given channel length.

In wireless mesh networks (WMNs), the end-to-end throughput of a flow decreases drastically according to the traversed number of hops due to interference among different hops of the same flow in addition to interference between hops of different flows with different paths. This paper proposes a distributed multi-channel assignment scheme based on hops (DMASH) to improve the performance of a static WMN. The proposed DMASH is a novel distributed multi-channel assignment scheme based on hops to enhance the end-to-end throughput by reducing interference between channels when transmitting packets in the IEEE 802.11 based multi-interface environments. The DMASH assigns a channel group to each hop, which has no interference between adjacent hops from a gateway in channel assignment phase, then each node selects its channel randomly among the channel group. Since the DMASH is a distributed scheme with unmanaged and auto-configuration of channel assignment, it has a less overhead and implementation complexity in algorithm than centralized multi-channel assignment schemes. Simulation results using the NS-2 showed that the DMASH could improve remarkably the total network throughput in multi-hop environments, comparing with a random channel assignment scheme.

무선 네트워크 환경에서의 미디어 전송은 채널의 패이딩 현상 및 채널 잡음 등으로 인한 다량의 패킷손실과 전송지연의 변동으로 급격한 화질 열화를 발생시킨다. 이러한 채널 변동이 심한 무선 네트워크 환경에서 성공적으로 미디어를 전송하기 위해서 FEC (Forward Error Correction), ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) 및 인터리빙을 사용하여 오류를 복구한다. 하지만 각각의 오류제어 모드는 채널 상황 및 오류 패턴에 따라 효율성이 다르기 때문에, 채널 상황에 적응적으로 변경할 수 있는 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 무선채널 변동을 송 수신측의 피드백 정보를 통해 측정하고 이에 따라 유동적으로 가장 적합한 오류제어 모드를 선택하여 패킷손실을 최소화하는 네트워크 적응형 전송오류제어 기법인 NASTE(Network-Adaptive Selective Transport Error control)를 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 성능을 검증하기 위해 IEEE 802.11g 무선랜 환경에서 NASTE 를 구현해서, MPEG-2 미디어 전송할 때 발생하는 패킷오류를 복구함으로써 전체적인 전송률 개선을 검증한다.

In this paper, we proposed adaptive MMSE receiver, which use channel equalizer to eliminate the interference due to multi-path fading and adaptive filter to eliminate the multiple access interference. The unique features of proposed receiver schemes are as following. We use pilot channel to estimate the channel coefficients exactly and guard symbols which are inserted periodically to estimate channel coefficients exactly without interference from user signals. The length of channel equalizer also can be reduced with the help of guard symbols. Especially utilizing adaptive code-matched filter(AMMSE) when the user population is high and SNR is not low we accepts excellent performance improvement.
