  • In this paper, we compare 5 weighted distance measures between feature vectors with respect to the recognition performance of the principal component analysis(PCA)-based face recognition method, and propose modified weighted distance. The proposed method was modification of z, the weighted vector. The simulation was performed using the ORL face database, showed the best result for some weighted distances such as weighted manhattan, weighted angle-based, weighted modified manhattan, and weighted modified SSE. We also showed that using some various values of z(weighted values) we can achieve better recognition results that using the existing weighted value.

  • This study seeks to prove three points through the research. The first point is to examine the changes of international attitudes with actual experiences using synchronous international distance learning. The second point is to examine the effectiveness of a synchronous international distance system. And the final point is to compare international attitudes among middle school and undergraduate school students in Korea and Japan. The study used the DVTS for audio and video communication tools and automatic translating chat as a text communication tool. This combination of communication tools was very effective for students from both countries to communicate for international collaborative learning activities. The study found several interesting patterns of attitude change from the results of the study. For whole category analysis, there are positive changes in four categories of international attitudes: consciousness to foreign countries, consideration for other's viewpoints, motivation for international education, and recognition for the counterpart country. However, there was no change in the nationality category.

  • In this paper, Distance recognition measurement using distance calculation correction algorithm, was realization through LED dimming control. The calculation values for the RSSI average filtering and the RSSI feedback filtering were calculated and applied to reduce the error of the RSSI value measured from a long distance. It was confirmed that the RSSI values through the average filtering and the RSSI values measured by setting the coefficient value of the feedback filtering to 0.5 were ranged from -61 dBm to - 52.5 dBm, which shows irregular and high values decrease slightly as much as about -2 dBm to -6 dBm as compared to general measurements. A distance calculation correction algorithm to improve the accuracy was applied, which confirmed that as the distance increases, the range of errors decreases. In conclusion, unstable signals were corrected using the RSSI measurement result filtering, and the distance calculation correction algorithm was applied and performed to reduce the range of errors. In addition, RGB colors were implemented by LED to indicate the distance determination and the signal stability.

  • This paper presents a method to suppress multipath induced by pulses using supervised learning. In modern electronics, pulses have been used for various purposes such as communication or distance measurements. Like other signals, pulses also suffer from multipath. When a pulse and a multipath are overlapped, the original pulse shape is distorted. The distorted pulse could result in communication failures or distance measurement errors. However, a large number of samples available from a pulse can be used to effectively reject multipath by using a supervised learning method. This paper introduces how a supervised learning method can be applied to Distance Measuring Equipment. Simulation results show that multipath induced distance measuring error can be suppressed by 10 ~ 45 percent depending on the allowed pulse shape variation allowed in a standard.

  • In this paper, we present the use of the Features Weighted Mahalanobis Distance (FWMD) in improving the performance of Likelihood Maximizing Beamforming (Limabeam) algorithm in speech recognition for microphone array. The proposed approach is based on the replacement of the traditional distance measure in a Gaussian classifier with adding weight for different features in the Mahalanobis distance according to their distances after the variance normalization. By using Features Weighted Mahalanobis Distance for Limabeam algorithm (FWMD-Limabeam), we obtained correct word recognition rate of 90.26% for calibrate Limabeam and 87.23% for unsupervised Limabeam, resulting in a higher rate of 3% and 6% respectively than those produced by the original Limabearn. By implementing a HM-Net speech recognition strategy alternatively, we could save memory and reduce computation complexity.

  • The main purpose of the study is to identify the key aspects of the use of innovative distance learning technologies in the training of biology students. Currently, there is a modernization, the evolution of the education system from a classical university to a virtual one, from lecture material teaching to computer educational programs, from a book library to a computer one, from multi-volume paper encyclopedias to modern search databases. During studies in higher education, distance learning ensures the delivery of information in an interactive mode through the use of information and communication technologies. The main disadvantage of distance learning is the emotional interaction of the teacher with students. It is necessary to increase the level of methodological developments for independent studies of students. The methodology includes a number of theoretical methods. Based on the results of the study, the main elements of the use of innovative distance learning technologies in the training of biology students were identified.

  • The indoor location based service proposed in the study was assigned to target a moving user. Positioning in the outdoor environment is accurate while using GPS. However, in an indoor environment, positioning is inaccurate and difficult. In order to overcome this, studies of various techniques for positioning based on wireless communication such as Wi-Fi, Zigbee and Bluetooth are being performed. The RSSI value and the delivery signal of the bluetooth beacon are measured according to the distance, and to a database. It was applied calculating the value for the average RSSI and the RSSI filtering feedback. Filtering is used to reduce the error of the RSSI values that are measured at long distance. When average and feedback filtering coefficient are set with 0.5, irregular and highly RSSI values are decreased. As the distance increases, the range of error is confirmed to have a reduction when using a distance calculation correction algorithm. Finally, when using the RSSI measurement results filtering, it corrects an unstable signal. Also, the distance correction algorithm is used to reduce a range of errors.

  • Meteor Burst Communication can provide effective and economical means of communication where long distance VHF NLOS(None Line of sight) data transmission is needed; often ranges more than 1200 km. It has been, however, so far considered unsuitable for distance as short as 700km application because of phenomenal decrease in burst durations, which leads to decreation of total duty rate of the system. This paper introduce experimental characteristics of very shot distance MB(Meteor Hurst) path. Also the occurring rate and average length measured on 50km paths between kyongsan-city to Andong-city shows that Meter Burst communication is useful communication system in mountain and valley communication.

  • As the loss prevention system using bluetooth has a short communication range, it has a problem which its location is not known if it is strayed out of a certain distance. To overcome shortcoming of such an existing loss prevention system, this paper proposes a GPS-based wireless loss prevention system without communication fee using the LoRa Communication with a long distance. The proposed system performs a remote control application on the smart-phone and then is able to get a long-distance GPS coordinates about the location of the loss prevention system on the google map. For performance evaluation of the implemented proposed system, the experiments for transmitting and receiving data are done in open terrain, indoor and outdoor areas and the experiment results identified the superiority of the proposed system in the long-distance.

  • As part of overseas defense program of the US's Trump administration, the military allies were asked to cover partial operation costs for the weaponry deployed at the US bases in their countries. This raised the Korean government's, as well as defense industry's interest in constructing a tactical/strategic communication network and investments are being made actively. Thus, in this study, the performances of WiMAX and WLAN have been compared and a tactical/strategic communication network has been constructed for simulation by using OPNET. As a result, the simulation for the network using combat tanks was successful. An average communication distance that can be achieved by WLAN in open terrain is about 200m as it has been designed on the premise of short-range wireless communications. When the distance was increased to 1km, the tanks could not receive data. By contrast, it was able to confirm that the WiMAX-based network has allowed smooth communications at the same distance. Based on this result, it can be concluded that using WiMAX for tactical operations will have much more merit than adopting WLAN as far as the distance is concerned.
