The present block-based DCT encoder transforms images regardless of layers and then simply partitions the transformed data into a few layers, for example low and high frequency bands in JPEG. Yet, it fails to utilize the similarity of coefficients in each band. Therefore, we combine the subband coder and the block-based DCt coder in this paper. The new coding scheme enables the data to automatically be classified into several layers and increases the efficiency of transform. Various possible coding structures are investigated and the simulation results are also provided.

In this paper, we present a block media communication (BMC) system which employs powerline communication to the equipments used in the welding process for ship-assembly and uses metal block as a communication medium. Inductive couplers are installed on digital feeder and pin jig. Information signal is added to the current generated by the welding gun, and applied to the block. When the welding operation starts, information generated in the field is transmitted to the monitoring server in real-time. The field test on the BMC system confirms that the transmitted data are correctly received at the server. Since the proposed system can be built without any changes to the existing welding process, it is helpful to increase competitiveness of the shipbuilding industry through smart factory of shipyards. It is also possible to quickly respond to emergency situations that may occur to workers in an electromagnetic wave shielding environment or a closed space, the effect of preventing industrial accidents will be great.

In the Wyner-Ziv coding, compression performance highly depends on the quality of the side information since better quality of side information brings less channel noise and less parity bit. However, as decoder generates side information without any knowledge of the current Wyner-Ziv frame, it doesn't have optimal criterion to decide which block is more advantageous to generate better side information. Hence, in general, fixed block size motion estimation (ME) is performed in generating side information. By the fixed block size ME, the best coding performance cannot be attained since some blocks are better to be motion estimated in different block sizes. Therefore if there is a way to find appropriate ME block of each block, the quality of the side information might be improved. In this paper, we investigate the effects of variable block sizes of ME in generating side information.

Recently, research on Media Access Control (MAC) techniques for underwater acoustic communication has been conducted actively. For successful acoustic communication in underwater conditions, development of environmentally adaptive MAC techniques, which is taking narrow bandwidth, distance, depth, noise level, salinity, multipath and etc into account, is an especially important work. In this paper, knowledge based system is introduced not only to obtain adaptive and optimal communication parameters but also increase network efficiency and availability by requesting change of MAC techniques based on decisions from knowledge-based system Smart Decision Block (SDB). Computer simulations were also conducted to verify the performance of the proposed system in underwater conditions.

본 논문에서는 기존 AHDRNet에 channel attention 기법을 적용했을 때 성능에 어떠한 변화가 있는지를 평가하였다. 기존 모델의 병합 망에 존재하는 DRDB(Dilated Residual Dense Block) 사이, 그리고 DRDB 내의 확장된 합성곱 레이어 (dilated convolutional layer) 뒤에 또다른 합성곱 레이어를 추가하는 방식으로 channel attention 기법을 적용하였다. 데이터셋은 Kalantari의 데이터셋을 사용하였으며, PSNR(Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio)로 비교해본 결과 기존의 AHDRNet의 PSNR은 42.1656이며, 제안된 모델의 PSNR은 42.8135로 더 높아진 것을 확인하였다.

Compressive sensing (CS) has drawn much interest as a novel sampling technique that enables sparse signal to be sampled under the Nyquitst/Shannon rate. By noting that the block-based CS can still keep spatial correlation in measurement domain, this paper proposes to adapt sampling rate of each block in frame according to its characteristic defined by edge information. Specifically, those blocks containing more edges are assigned more measurements utilizing block-wise correlation in measurement domain without knowledge about full sampling frame. For natural image, the proposed adaptive rate allocation shows considerable improvement compared with fixed subrate block-based CS in both terms of objective (up to 3.29 dB gain) and subjective qualities.

Gesture recognition analytics through a camera in real time have been widely studied in recent years. Since a small number of features from human joints are extracted, low accuracy of classifying models is get in conventional gesture recognition studies. In this paper, CBAM (Convolutional Block Attention Module) with high accuracy for classifying images is proposed as a classification model and algorithm calculating the angle of joints depending on actions is presented to solve the issues. Employing five exercise gestures images from the fitness posture images provided by AI Hub, the images are applied to the classification model. Important 8-joint angles information for classifying the exercise gestures is extracted from the images by using MediaPipe, a graph-based framework provided by Google. Setting the features as input of the classification model, the classification model is learned. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the exercise gestures are classified with high accuracy in the proposed model.

Data transmission in poor environment like underwater has considerably serious delay rate and ewer rate. Like this environment usually has heavy fluctuation of error rate and limited wireless communication state. Therefore, mechanism using in such environment has to be efficient and simple. This paper suggests a new block ack mechanism, called the Pervasive Block ACK (PBA), which transmits aggregated ACKs. This mechanism takes effect on reducing number of traffic, decreasing overhead and delay rate in poor environment networks like underwater. Additionally, we can expect energy consumption. We verify propriety and efficiency of PBA through describing numerical result based analytical formula in this paper.

This paper addresses schemes which securely transmit voice and data information under the worst communication environment using the frequency hopping(FH) communication system to avoid monitoring or interference against enemy. In case of using the conventional FEC and bit interleaving scheme. the processing time for error control coding and bit interleaving due to system complexity is highly demanded. In this paper. the effective information coding scheme of maprity error correction and block interleaving compatible to the proposed FH communication system is proposed to transmit voice or data (I6Kbps. 4.8Kbps. 2.4Kbps. 1.2Kbps, O.6Kbps) under the worst FH communication channel. In transmitter. low rate data signals are configured to majority data blocks. and transmitted repeatedly to FH channel which are structured to 20Kbps hopping frame cells. In receiver. the received data are decoded block by block, and taken majority error correction. Consequently. burst or random errors are corrected at the block deinterleaver and the majority decoder. The proposed coder structure reduces the coding/decnding processing time as well as the jamming interferences, and further simplify the data processing complexity for FH communication. Improved performance of the proposed scheme was verified under simulated channel environments.
