We propose a new cache conscious indexing structure for processing frequently updated data efficiently. Our proposed index structure is based on a KDB-Tree, one of the representative index structures based on space partitioning techniques. In this paper, we propose a data compression technique and a pointer elimination technique to increase the utilization of a cache line. To show our proposed index structure's superiority, we compare our index structure with variants of the CR-tree(e.g. the FF CR-tree and the SE CR-tree) in a variety of environments. As a result, our experimental results show that the proposed index structure achieves about 85%, 97%, and 86% performance improvements over the existing index structures in terms of insertion, update and cache-utilization, respectively.

The worth of frequency resources is growing up because of development of wireless communication. However, frequency resources is short, because demand is much more than supply. So it needs Cognitive Radio(CR), which manages frequency resources efficiently. In this paper, we apply the efficient Spectrum Sensing method based on CR in an embedded board. We examine various Spectrum Sensing methods and apply these methods to an embedded platform on CR environment and verify the performance through the MAC message.

In this paper, we propose a method to extract and analyze palm line with fuzzy method. In order to extract the palm part, we transform the original RGB color space to YCbCr color space and extract sin colors ranging Y:65-255, Cb:25-255, Cr:130-255 and use it as a threshold. Possible noise is removed by 8-directional contour tracking algorithm and morphological characteristic of the palm. Then the edge is extracted from that noise-free image by stretching method and sobel mask Then the fuzzy binarization algorithm is applied to remove any minute noise so that we have only the palm lines and the boundary of the hand. Since the palm line reading is done with major lines, we use the morphological characteristics of the analyzable palm lines and fuzzy inference rules. Experiment verifies that the proposed method is better in visibility and thus more analyzable in palm reading than the old method.

In this paper, we discuss the BBA based power scaling scheme in cognitive radio technique for WPAN system. We focus on Cognitive Radio environment which is currently ongoing standard procedure and is able to focus on future communication and show the transmitted power scaling of CR user. We suggest the available communication method of CR user, while it is simultaneously satisfying both minimum interference of PU(Primary User) and possible communication of CR user. The method is using the BBA, and we show several merits in face of received SINR. and we prove that CR vary its transmit power while maintaining a guarantee of service to primary users.

Recently, data traffic is significantly increased by high rate data service. As a result, radio spectrum is considered one of the most scarce and valuable resources for wireless communications. For the solution of this problem, cognitive radio(CR) has been proposed as an efficient means to opportunistic spectrum sharing between primary (licensed) users and cognitive radio users. In this paper, user selection scheme in CR networks is proposed for additional consideration of secondary system. The proposed user selection scheme mitigates interference to primary user by using orthogonal channel vectors while improves performance of secondary system. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves 1.62bps/Hz higher average throughput of whole system than one of the existing scheme.

Spectrum sensing is a critical functionality of CR network; it allow secondary user to detect spectral holes and to opportunistically use under-utilized frequency bands without causing harmful interference to primary use. Recently, wideband service has been increase for processing abundance of data traffic. So CR network needs a realizable implementation design of spectrum sensing for wideband. To get high resolution performance of wideband sensing must precede algorithm processing for reliability signal detection. By the way, the performance of spectrum sensing can be degraded due to fading and shadowing. In order to overcome this problem, we propose system model of wideband sensing scheme on energy detected collaborative technique. we divide wideband into narrowbands and use narrowbands to detect signal excepting some narrowbands including bad channel through the CSI. And we simulate and analyze in terms of detection probability with various SNR.

This paper proposes an integer frequency offset estimation scheme robust to timing offset for the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based cognitive radio (CR) systems. The proposed scheme exploits a feature that a sample distance between a continual pilot and a scattered pilot nearest to it in an OFDM symbol belongs to one of predetermined distances. First after calculating a correlation value of every continual pilot and its nearest scattered pilot. Then, it is divided into several groups according to the sample distances. Since correlation values with the same sample distance undergo the same effect of the timing offset, the effect of the timing offset can be removed by re-correlating these correlation values. From the simulation results we can confirm that the proposed algorithm estimates the integer frequency offset with the robustness to the timing offset when compared to a conventional scheme.

We have studied the interfacial diffusion of Fe/Cr multilayers using synchrotron x-ray techniques, such as x-ray reflectivity, extended x-ray absorption fine structures (EXAFS), and high-resolution x-ray scattering. The results of x-ray reflectivity indicated that the interfacial roughness of Fe/Cr multilayers increased with the Cr-layer thickness. The Fourier transform (FT) of EXAFS data clearly showed that the Fe atoms dominantly diffused into the stable Cr layers at the Fe/Cr interface. The results of high-resolution x-ray scattering supported the interfacial diffusion of Fe atoms. Out study revealed that the dominantly interfacial diffusion of Fe atoms into the Cr layers effects the interfacial roughness of the Fe/Cr multilayers.

Recently, the investigation of the cognitive radio (CR) system is actively progressed as one of the methods for using the frequency resources more efficiently. In CR systems, when the frequency band allocated to the incumbent user is not used, the unused frequency band is assigned to the secondary user. Thus, the FFT input signals corresponding to the actually used frequency band by the incumbent user are assigned as '0'. In this paper, based on the fact that there are many '0' input signals in CR systems, a low-power FFT design method for NC-OFDM is proposed. An efficient zero flag generation technique for each stage is first presented. Then, to increase the utility of the zero flag signals, modified architectures for memory and arithmetic circuits are presented. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, 2048 point FFT with radix-24SDFstructureisdesignedusingVerilog HDL. The simulation results show that the power consumption of FFT is reduced considerably by the proposed algorithm.

CrN 코팅막은 고온에서 치밀한 Cr2O3 확산방지막을 형성함으로 $800^{\circ}C$까지 기계적성질을 유지할 수 있다. 본 실험에서는 Ar, N2, 그리고 $O_2$ 가스 분위기에서 AIP(Arc Ion Plating) 기법에 의해 다양한 조성의 Cr-O-N 박막을 Si(200)과 AISI 304 기판 위에 증착되었다. Cr-O-N 코팅막은 47.4at% 미만의 산소함량을 포함 할 때까지 B1구조를 유지하였고 코팅막 내 산소함량 24.6at%에서는 강한 XRD peak intensification을 나타내었다. 47.4at%에서는 결정상을 전혀 찾아볼 수 없는 전이구조를 나타내었고, 그 이상의 산소함량에서는 Cr22O3 결정상을 나타내었다. Cr-O(17at%)-N 조성의 코팅막에서는 (200)배향의 Grain 크기 증가 및 압축잔류응력이 증가하였으나, 그 이상의 산소함량에서는 점차 감소하였다. Cr-O(24.6at%)-N 조성의 코팅막이 가장 높은 경도를 나타내었고, 산소함량이 증가할수록 점차 향상된 마찰특성을 보였다.
