산재한 무선 네트워크를 활용하는 WPS(WiFi Positioning System) 측위시스템의 대표적 실내 측위 기법은 핑거프린트이다. Radio map 으로 구성된 AP의 정보와 수집된 AP의 정보 차이를 계산하여 측위를 수행한다. 즉, 저장된 정보와 오차가 가장 적은 위치를 판단하는 연산이다. 그러나 기존의 실내 핑거프린트와 radio map 방식을 실외에 사용할 경우 측위 성능 저하와 비용의 증가 등의 문제점이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 기존 WPS 측위 시스템의 특징에 대하여 설명하고 기존 핑거프린트 연산의 문제점에 대하여 언급한다. 또한 이를 해결하기 위한 실외 환경의 특징을 적용한 Radio map 구축과 WPS_WS(WiFi Positioning System_Weak Signal) 기법에 대하여 설계 및 구현 결과를 설명한다. 그리고 기존 시스템과 제안한 WPS_WS의 성능을 테스트를 통해 비교하여 이에 대한 결과를 제시한다.

There are several reasons to take X-ray in case of inpatients. Some of them who cannot ambulate or have any risk if move are taken portable X-ray at their wards. Usually, in this case, many other people-patients unneeded X-ray test, family, hospital workers etc-are indirectly exposed to X-ray by scatter ray. For that reason I try to be aware of free space scatter dose accurately and make the point at issue of portable X-ray better in this study. kVp dose meter is used for efficiency management of portable X-ray equipment. Mobile X-ray equipment, ionization chamber, electrometer, solid water phantom are used for measuring of free space scatter dose. First of all the same surroundings condition is made as taken real portable X-ray, inquired amount of X-ray both chest AP and abdomen AP most frequently examined and measured scatter ray distribution of two tests individually changing distance. In the result of measuring horizontal distribution with condition of chest AP it is found that the mAs is decreased as law of distance reverse square but no showed mAs change according to direction. Vertical distribution showed the mAs slightly higher than horizontal distribution but it isnt found out statistical characteristic. In abdomen AP, compare with chest AP, free space scatter dose is as higher as five-hundred times and horizontal, vertical distribution are quite similar to chest AP in result. In portable X-ray test, in order to reduce the secondary exposure by free space scatter dose first, cut down unnecessary portable order the second, set up the specific area at individual ward for the test the third, when moving to a ward for the X-ray test prepare a portable shielding screen. The last, expose about 2m apart from patients if unable to do above three ways.

Objectives : Assuming that the characteristic of meridian system has been similar to this of electric potentials in human body and that measurements of electric potential at well(井穴) and sea(合穴) points in branches of the twelve meridians will be representative of measurements of the twelve meridians, to measure the electric potentials in three patient groups with arrhythmia(AP group), with arrhythmia and cerebral infarction(CI group), and with arrhythmia and hemorrhage(CH group), and then to find out the characteristic of meridian system among 3 groups. Methods : Thirty arrhythmic patients diagnosed by EKG, CT, and deficiency of the heart blood(心血虛症) were divided into 3 groups(AP, CI, CH group). Their electric potential of well and sea points in the meridians were measured 3 times by physiograph. Results : Measurements were analyzed by statistical factor analysis, we obtained that the left side electric potential of well and sea points in branches of the twelves meridians in AP group was divided into two factors, which were the hand meridian without the lung meridian, the foot meridian and the lung meridian, but the right side electric potential was divided into the hand and the foot meridian. In CH group both the left and the right side electric potential was divided into three factors. In CI group the left side electric potential was divided into three factors, but the right side electric potential was divided into two factors. Conclusions : In conclusion, their electrical potentials were different each other among 3 groups. Thus electrical potentials of well and sea points might be the representative meridian to show their characteristics.

Methamphetamine (MA) is the most common and available drug of abuse in Korea and its primary metabolite is amphetamine (AP). Detection of AP derivatives, such as MA, AP, phentermine (PT), MDA, MDMA, and MDEA by the use of immunoassay screening is not reliable and accurate due to cross-reactivity and insufficient specificity/sensitivity. Therefore, the analytical process accepted by most urine drug-testing programs employs the two-step method with an initial screening test followed by a more specific confirmatory test if the specimen screens positive. In this study, a gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) method was developed and validated for confirmation of MA and AP in human urine. Urine sample (500 µL) was added with N-isopropylbenzylamine as internal standard and ethyl chloroformate as a derivatization reagent, and then extracted with 200 µL of ethyl acetate. Extracted samples were analysed with GC-MS in the SIM/ Scan mode, which were screened by Cobas c311 analyzer (Roche/Hitachi) to evaluate the efficiency as well as the compatibility of the GC-MS method. Qualitative method validation requirements for selectivity, limit of detection (LOD), precision, accuracy, and specificity/sensitivity were examined. These parameters were estimated on the basis of the most intense and characteristic ions in mass spectra of target compounds. Precision and accuracy were less than 5.2 % (RSD) and ±14.0 % (bias), respectively. The LODs were 3 ng/mL for MA and 1.5 ng/mL for AP. At the screening immunoassay had a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 95.1 % versus GC-MS for confirmatory testing. The applicability of the method was tested by the analysis of spiked urine and abusers' urine samples.

The elastic modulus and the apparent density of the trabecular bone were evaluated from spherical indentation tests and Computed Tomography (CT) and their relationship was quantified. The femurs were prepared for trabecular bone analysis. Embedded with respect to their anatomical orientation, the transverse planes of the trabecular bone specimens were scanned at 1㎜ intervals using a CT scanner. The metaphyseal regions of femurs were sectioned with a diamond-blade saw, producing 8㎜ cubes. Using a specially made spherical indentation tester, the cubes were mechanically tested in the anterior-posterior (AP), medial-lateral (ML), and inferior-superior (IS) directions. After determination of modulus from the mechanical testing, the apparent densities of the specimens were measured. The results showed that the IS modulus was significantly greater than both the AP and ML moduli with the AP modulus greater than the ML modulus. This demonstrated that orthogonality was a structural characteristic of the trabecular bone. The power relationship between the modulus and the apparent density was also found to be statistically significant.

Background: Postoperative pain occurring after hip arthroplasty has become common since the expanded use of cementless femoral stems. The characteristic pain develop in the anterolateral thigh area. This study aimed to predict anterior thigh pain based on the measurements of postoperative anteroposterior (AP) and lateral (Lat) radiographs of the hip joint. Methods: The present study included 26 patients (29 hips) who underwent total hip replacement or bipolar hemiarthroplasty between March 2010 and May 2016, whose complete clinical information was available. AP and Lat radiographs of the affected hip were taken on the day of surgery and 1 and 6 months postoperatively. Patients with improper radiographs were excluded. The distance from the femoral stem to the nearest cortical bone in the distal region of the stem was measured. The patient group with a visual analog scale (VAS) score of ≥6 points was designated as patients with anterior thigh pain. Results: Sex, age, weight, height, body mass index, and bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and femur did not have a significant effect on postoperative VAS scores (p>0.05). Presence of contact between the femoral stem and cortical bone was associated with postoperative anterior thigh pain. Conclusion: Hip AP and Lat radiographs are usually taken to confirm fixation and alignment of the femoral stem after hip arthroplasty. The measurement method introduced in this study can be utilized for predicting anterior thigh pain after hip arthroplasty.

IEEE 802.11s 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서 분배 서비스를 위한 중심망(Backbond)은 메쉬 포인트들을 무선 링크로 연결하여 구성한 무선 다중 홉 구조를 특징으로 하며 AODV(Adhoc Ondemand Distance Vector)와 같은 무선 다중 홉 라우팅 프로토콜을 사용하여 경로를 설정한다. 통신 중인 단말이 이동으로 인해 새로운 AP(Access Point)를 통해 서비스를 받아야 할 때, 즉 핸드오버 상황에서, 기존 무선 랜 네트워크의 경우 새 AP와 무선 링크를 설정 하는 것만으로 바로 통신을 재개할 수 있지만 메쉬 네트워크는 무선 다중 홉 중심망에서의 경로 설정 과정이 추가로 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 경로 설정 지연을 제거하여 무선 메쉬 네트워크를 사용하는 이동 단말에게 끊김 없는 통신 서비스를 제공하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 우리는 GPS 위치 정보를 이용하여 이동 단말의 핸드오버 대상 AP를 예측하고 대상 AP로 하여금 미리 경로를 설정하게 함으로써 지연을 제거하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 핸드오버 방법을 특징으로 하는 무선 메쉬 노드들을 임베디드 보드를 이용하여 직접 구현하였고 실험망을 구성하여 성능을 검증하였다. 실험 결과 제안하는 방법은 경로 설정 지연이 있는 기존 방법에 비해 핸드오버 지연시간은 2.47초에서 0.05초로 줄었고 데이터 손실률을 20~35% 수준에서 0~10% 수준으로 줄어 들었다.
