The advertisement call of anurans functions to attract potential mates. The dominant frequency of an advertisement call is generally getting lower with increased snout-vent length (SVL) of the caller Rana rugosa has an advertisement call tilth a particularly high frequency modulation. We conducted a playback experiment to verify the function of frequency modulation, and investigated the territorial behavior of the frog. The frog has five types of territory defense strategy. Strategy choice depended on the caller's SVL. Small males became satellites or lowered the dominant frequency of their advertisement call, whereas large males actively defended their territory with encounter calls. In response to high frequency (1107 Hz) playback, the frogs lowered their advertisement call frequency, and towered them further in response to the low frequency (1028 Hz) playback. In addition, the number of pulses in a call was increased in response to the playback. These results indicate that the frog avoids physical conflict with competitors by selecting a territory defense strategy suitable for the caller's size, and by lowering its call frequency to disguise its SVL.

Five call types of the genus Hyla in habitats around South Korea were classified according to some attributes of their advertisement calls (note duration, note intenral, dominant frequency, sonagram patterns. Among the call types, the E-type was more distinctive than the other call types in that it had a metal sound and much longer note duration and note intenral. This result indicated that some divergence had occurred in the advertisement call of the genus Hylo, though this was found in alimited number of regions and its occurrence was small.

The structure and variation of the mating call in Rana nigromaculata was studied in a population at Da-rak, Chong-won, Chung-buk (36$\circ$ 37' latitude, 127$\circ$ 21' longitude) in Korea. The mating call consists of 3 to 8 pulse groups divided by clear silent intervals. Each pulse group is also composed of fine pulses. Temperature and body size affect the temporal and spectral characteristics of the mating call. Pulse, pulse group repetition rate and dominant frequency rise with increasing temperature, whereas pulse grouprepetition rate and dominant frequency decrease with increasing body size. A playback experiment was designed to establish the effect of a potential intruder on male calling. During the stimulus periods, resident males markedly decreased the pulse repetition rate, and icreased the rate of pulse groups, dominant frequency, and the number of call groups. This results indicate that this species responds in a graded fashion when interacting with other individuals.

The black-tailed gull chicks, Larus crassirostris, recognize various adult voice signal base on the simple patterns. We investigated behavior change in black-tailed gull chicks through physical manipulation of mew call. They were playback in four situations differing in physical character: 1) frequency manipulation only, 2) duration manipulation only, 3) call intensity(dB) manipulation only, and 4) call interval manipulation only. We observed occurrence of different response of the chicks, which were categorized into two behaviors(hidden and return behavior). The manipulated frequency, duration, and intensity were directly correlated. The chicks exposed to only manipulated call interval(0.5, 1sec) made significantly more hidden and return behavior. Adult black-tailed gull only increased flight time on manipulated call interval. The results suggest that black-tailed gulls use short call interval for alarm signal. The analysis of alarm signal provides an important on basic study of bird strike.

In providing with low speed multimedia services, a call blocking rate is greatly varied according to the transmission rate, and thereofr, the call blocking rate is remarkably increased for a service having a high transmission rate compared to a service having a low transmission rate. This paper presents three methods of solving this problem; Packing Scheme in which available channels distributed to each frequency channel are concentrated on one frequency channel and a call having a high transmission rate is assigned to the frequency channel; Queuing Scheme in which queuing is assigned to calls under service is temporarily reduced and a call having a high transmission rate is allowed. The result of performance analysis for 13 Kbps and 128 Kbps service through computer simulation showed that the call blocking rate for 128 Kbpx service was reduced by tens of percent accoring to loads.

This study eas conducted to assess the spectrographic analysis agter vocal cordectomy in which procedures included biopsy punch per os, laryngofissure and lactic acid injection to the vocal cord. There were significant difference in dominant frequency(DF) of spectrograms between normal and all surgical procedures for vocal cordectomy at 1 day (p<0.01). Vocal cordectomy(laryngofissure) revealed significant differences in minimum frequency of call (MIFC) and DF during the period of observation after surgery (p<0.01). In lactic acid injextion group, there were also significant differences in DF and maximum frequency of call (MAFC) variables (p<0.01).

In this study, we analyzed the pulse-duration, pulse-interval and peak-frequency of echolocation call in three species as Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, Pipistrellus abramus, and Myotis macrodactylus. The peak frequency and pulse duration for above mentioned species were 69 kHz, 47 kHz and 49 kHz and $69.39{\pm}8.76\;ms$, $4.95{\pm}0.77\;ms$ and $3.09{\pm}0.48\;ms$ for R. ferrumequinum, P. abramus and M. macrodactylus, respectively. The pulse intervals for R. ferrumequinum, P. abramus and M. macrodactylus were $103.61{\pm}9.05\;ms$, $67.59{\pm}3.47\;ms$ and $66.35{\pm}4.96\;ms$, respectively. The pulse pattern of R. ferrumequinum was setting into a short FM call and linked to long CF call and went through the short FM call again. The pulse pattern of M. macrodactylus was comprised with serial short FM call and the CF call was not checked up in accordance with the spectrogram analysis. The long FM call and short CF call got join together for the P. abramus and the peak frequency was checked up at the pulse ending as CF call.

This study was performed to analyse the common calls of poddle spectrographically : bark, growl, howl, snore, yelp and whine. The sonograms of 6 common calls were shown their own specific features. There were significant differences among each types of common callsin the parceter of minimun frequency of call (MIFC), maximun frequency of call (MAFC), duration of call (DC), interval between call (IBC), dominant frequency (DF), F1 formant, F2 formant and F3 formant (P<0.01). It was considered that it was possible to record the main common calls dogs by sonograms and it sould be applied to objective basic data for understanding the psychological stats of dogs, the social relationship among them and the relationship sith human being.

In this paper, we propose a locating strategy using a cache based on the distributed call processing stucture. In our stategy, each originating call server, withc is responsible for call setup, has a cache to memorize the service ratio of call server which serves the called terminal.We present performance comparison of the proposed strategy with the existing strategy via simulation. We can reduce the cost for call setup because the originating call server can simpley establish a call without tracing the location of the called terminal. The proposed strategy also reduceds network loads caused by signaling at call setup time and lessens the frequency of queries for the database systems which can be a bottleneck when it serves many subscriber.

This study was conducted to find out how young black-tailed gulls (Larus crassirostris) recognize adult voice signals after hatching. For the experiment, adult voice recorded in the natural environment was played back at controlled intervals and intensity (dB) to 15 young gulls that were artificially hatched in the laboratory. The chirirah call frequency of young gulls increased as the intensity of the mew call increased. The chirirah response of the control group was highest to the mew call at intervals of 1.8s. The adult long ca11 and alarm call also showed similar results to the mew call when the interval and intensity were manipulated similar to the mew call. Based on the results of this experiment, it is assumed that the young black-tailed gulls recognize adult voice signals based on the simple structure of adult voice signals, that is, the interval and intensity of the voice.
