Telemedicine is performed at a place far away from medical practice with physicians and patients by the means of communication appropriately. It will be identified in general the remote medical service to deliver the medical information and also defined as any action by interactive information communication technology. Medical services can be said to be fused as television, communication, computer, engineering of various technologies of information and communication applications. If doctors can not be reached due to distances away from the patient, Information technologies could be used to get medical information and to give expert advice provided by the system remotely. And it could be used patient care as well as medical administration, medical education, professional advice and consulting. In this paper, we take a look at the legal requirements of telemedicine for improving regulatory in the current law to investigate the matter.

지적도는 모든 지도중 가장 큰 대축척 지도이며 토지에 대하여 필지별로 지번, 위치 및 경계 등 소유권의 범위를 등록하는 것으로서 국민의 기본권리인 토지에 대한 소유권과 그 이용을 보장할 수 있는 가장 기본적인 특성을 가지고 있다. 도형자료인 현재의 지적도는 1910년 토지조사사업에 의하여 실제 토지필지를 1/1,200로 축소하여 도면에 등록한 도해지적으로 제도오차, 축척오차, 신축오차, 도곽접합 등의 기술적인 오차와 측량을 할 때마다 각기 측량사에 따라 개인오차의 누적으로 성과결정에 있어서 차질을 가져다주고 있다. 따라서 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여는 지적재조사사업이 가장 바람직하지만 복잡한 과정을 거쳐야 함으로 그 이전에라도 축척변경사업을 통하여 새로운 지적체계로서 토지이용상태에 따라 토지의 경계를 수치좌표로 등록하는 수치지적체계로 전환하여 지적측량의 정확도와 정밀도를 높여 지적불부합지에 대한 민원을 해소함으로써 재산적 가치를 증대할 뿐만 아니라 국민의 소유권 보호 및 양질의 서비스 개선에 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서는 해당지역의 지적도를 독취, 정도곽으로 보정하여 일필지를 공부상면적의 공차범위 이내로 조정한 후 현형도와 지적도를 조정(Orientation)하여 좌표를 저장하였다. 일필지 좌표결정 방법에는 CAD기능을 이용하여 컴퓨터의 모니터에서 지적도를 이동 및 회전함으로써 위치를 결정하는 방식, 모니터상에서 국부적으로 위치를 결정하는 방식 및 디지타이져상에서 결정하여 모니터상에서 조정하는 방식있다. 현실적으로 국부적인 방법이 합리적이라고 생각되어 모니터상에서 조정(Orientation)하여 국부적으로 좌표 위치를 결정하는 방법으로 연구하고 성과를 비교, 검토하였으며, 그 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 지적도면은 토지조사사업 한지를 배접한 켄트지를 사용함으로써 종이의 신축으로 인하여 정도곽으로 보정을 하면 독취면적은 대부분 공부상면적보다 늘어났다. 2. 좌표의 이동량이 일률적이지 못하므로 기초점에 대한 문제라고 생각되며, 따라서 도해지적을 수치지적으로 전환함에 있어서 가장 우선되어야 할 사항이 기초점 정비라 하겠다.

The flight control of aircraft, which has nonlinear time-varying dynamic characteristics depending on the various and unexpected external conditions, can be performed on two motions: longitudinal motion and lateral motion. In the longitudinal motion control of aircraft, pitch and trust are major control parameters and roll and yaw are control ones in the lateral motion control. Until now, a number of efficient and reliable control schemes that can guarantee the stability and maneuverability of the aircraft have been developed. Recently, the intelligent flight control scheme, which differs from the conventional control strategy requiring the various and complicate procedures such as the wind tunnel and environmental experiments, has attracted attention. In this paper, an intelligent longitudinal control scheme has been proposed utilizing Interval Type-2 fuzzy logic which can be recognized as a representative intelligent control methodology. The results will be verified through computer simulation with a F-4 jet fighter.

UWB impulse radio signals have an very short duration, extremely wide bandwidth and share the same frequency spectrum with other existing systems. It was determined by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that UWB systems could cause interference with other systems, such as Global Positioning System (GPS) for example. Therefore, at present. the FCC has restricted the use of UWB systems to frequencies above 3.1㎓. In this paper, We evaluated performance of UWB system using proposed pulses in ［1］［2］ that are strictly limited in time to remove interference while, at the same time, contain their power distribution to a frequency band from 3.1㎓ to 10.6㎓. In particular, We evaluated the BER Performance in relation to system parameters such as pulse duration. $\delta$, the number of users. Nu. and the number of symbols, M. We found the optimal pulse duration $\delta$ through computer simulation using developed UWB pulses in ［1］［2］. It is shown that performance evaluation between the UWB communication system using these UWB pulses ［1］［2］and the Gaussian monocycle pulse in M-ary PPM and BPSK schemes. These results can be contributed to construct M-ary PPM UWB communication system in terms of multiuser parameters and pulse duration.

In orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) uplink environments, asynchronously received signals can cause multiple access interference (MAI). This paper focuses on the performance degradation due to the MAI over frequency-selective fading channels. We first introduce the timing misalignment, which is defined as the relative timing difference between asynchronous timing error of uplink user and reference time of the base station, and analytically derive the MAI using the power delay profile of wide-sense stationary uncorrelated scattering (WSSUS) channel model. Then, the effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the average symbol error probability (SEP) are derived. The proposed analytical results are verified through simulations with respect to the region of the timing misalignment and the number of asynchronous users.

In this paper, we consider a cell management and handover method in an IEEES02.16e based femto-cell systems. In a femto-cell system, Mobile Stations (MS) and Base Stations (BS) are temporarily overloaded during the process of MOB_NBR-ADV message because it includes huge information of macro-cell and a large number of femto-cells. Also, MS can be handover into another cell frequently, i.e. ping-pong phenomenon, if it is located in a overlapped cell area. In a femtocell system, so-called ping-pong phenomenon will burden the network opreation. In this paper, we propose construction of MOB_NBR-ADV message and it provides fast scanning and efficent handover by means of preselecting the candidate target femto-cells. Also, an adaptive method of hysteresis margin for handover is proposed. The simulation results show that the proposed schemes improve the MS's handover-related performance in terms of scanning power and scanning time compared with the conventional managements scheme of femto-cell systems.

In this paper, a CFNC (Complex Field Network Coding) scheme is presented, which focuses on improving transmission efficiency by reducing time slots that are needed to exchange data frames. Conventional CFNC scheme has the advantage of minimizing the number of time slots required for information exchanges. However, there exists serious performance deterioration because the transmit signals are interfered with each other. Moreover, when CFNC scheme is applied, the estimation and compensation performance of fine frequency offset severely deteriorates due to the multiple frequency offsets in received signal of relay node. In order to overcome these critical problems, we propose an improved CFNC scheme with modified maximum likelihood decision method which uses uplink transmit diversity. Also, we propose an enhanced fine frequency offset estimation method and a corresponding compensation method to deal with the multiple frequency offsets. Corresponding simulation results verify that the proposed methods are able to effectively solve the problems of CFNC scheme.

In this paper, we propose a new stopping criterion for the turbo processing (Turbo-BLAST) of MIMO-OFDM system. To reduce the high computational complexity of turbo-BLAST, it is desirable to lessen the outer-loop iteration number. In a system such as IEEE 802.16e Mobile WiMax, no CRC bits are available except the last encoding packet of a transmitted burst, so early stopping criteria without the help of CRC bits are needed. The proposed criterion counts the sign differences between received parity bits and the re-encoded parity bits from received information bits. With the tail-biting code which is accepted for IEEE 802.16e, a method that the re-encoder operates at half complexity is also proposed. Computer simulations show that the proposed stopping criterion approaches the performance of GENIE aided criterion with less average number of iterations than the other early stopping criteria.

In this paper, STBC(Space Time Block Code) is applied to the UWB system and frequency repeated diversity is used to get the 4-th order space time diversity gain. The performance of UWB STBC-OFDM system is analyzed by computer simulation. As a result of analysis, proposed UWB system can reduce the complexity that is introduced by increaing number of radiator and show the same performance of 4 antennas with that only using 2 radiator. This system at the $10^{-4}$ also shows the enhancement of $7.1\;\cal{dB}$ to the general UWB OFDM and $1.9\;\cal{dB}$ to UWB STBC-OFDM.
