  • In this paper, a video broadcasting system between a home-server-type device and a mobile device is proposed. The home-server-type device can automatically extract semantic information from video contents, such as news, a soccer match, and a baseball game. The indexing results are utilized to convert the original video contents to a digested or arranged format. From the mobile device, a user can make recording requests to the home-server-type devices and can then watch and navigate recorded video contents in a digested form. The novelty of this study is the actual implementation of the proposed system by combining the actual IT environment that is available with indexing algorithms. The implementation of the system is demonstrated along with experimental results of the automatic video indexing algorithms. The overall performance of the developed system is compared with existing state-of-the-art personal video recording products.

  • Coordinated multi-point transmission is a candidate technique for next-generation cellular communications systems. We consider a system with multiple cells in which base stations coordinate with each other by sharing user channel state information, which mitigates inter-cell interference (ICI), especially for users located at the cell edge. We introduce a new user scheduling method that considers both ICI and intra-cell orthogonality. Due to the influence of ICI cancellation and the loss reduction of effective channel gain during the beamforming process, the proposed method improves the system sum rate, when compared to the conventional method, by an average of 0.55bps/Hz for different numbers of total users per cell.

  • 최근 이슈화되고 있는 국가직무능력표준(NCS)에서 "방송통신직종"의 직무분석과 "국가기술자격검정"의 자격시험제도에 관한 실행방안을 알아본다. 국가직무능력표준은 학벌 중심의 사회에서 능력 중심의 사회로 전환하기 위한 정부의 정책방향에 따라 표준을 구성하였고, 표준에 기반 하여 학교교육 직업훈련 및 자격제도 개편을 하고자 시행되고 있다. 방송통신직종은 대분류가 정보통신이고, 중분류가 방송기술, 소분류가 방송제작기술, 방송플랫폼기술, 방송서비스로 분류되고 있다. 방송통신 직종의 각 세 분류 내에 능력단위를 보고 "국가기술자격검정"의 연관성을 검토하였다. 결과적으로 국가직무능력표준의 직무 능력단위의 수준을 검토함으로서 국가기술자격검정의 자격등급별로 타당성을 비교하였으나 능력단위 수준 및 능력단위의 내용이 가지고 있는 다양한 직업군을 자격검정으로 맞추지 못 할 것으로 판단이 되고, 자격제도의 올바른 시행을 위해서는 세부 항목을 검토하여 세분화하거나 자격검정을 새롭게 분류하여 제도화를 하거나 정비가 필요할 것으로 판단이 된다.

  • A compressed video stream is very sensitive to transmission errors that may severely degrade the reconstructed image. Therefore, error resilience is an essential problem in video communications. In this paper, we propose novel temporal error concealment techniques for recovering lost or erroneously received macroblock (MB). To reduce the computational complexity, the proposed method adaptively determines the search range for each lost MB to find best matched block in the previous frame. And the original corrupted MB split into for $8{\times}8$ sub-MBs, and estimates motion vector (MV) of each sub-MB using its boundary information. Then the estimated MVs are utilized to reconstruct the damaged MB. In simulation results, the proposed method shows better performance than conventional methods in both aspects of PSNR.

  • Transmission of continuous media streams has been a challenging problem of multimedia service. Lots of works have been done trying to figure out the best solution for this problem, and some works presented the optimal solution for transmitting the stored video using smoothing schemes applied to each individual stream. But those smoothing schemes considered only one stream, not the whole streams being serviced, to apply themselves, which could only achieve local optimum not the global optimum. Most of all, they did not exploit statistical multiplexing gain that can be obtained before smoothing. In this paper, we propose a new smoothing scheme that deals with not an individual stream but the whole streams being serviced simultaneously to achieve the optimal network bandwidth utilization and maximize the number of streams that can be serviced simultaneously. We formally proved that the proposed scheme not only provides deterministic QoS for each client but also maximizes number of clients that can be serviced simultaneously and hence achieves maximum utilization of transmission bandwidth.

  • 최근 ISI(intersymbol interference)를 제거하는 성형 펄스로 BTRC(better than raised-cosine), MRC(mirrored raised-cosine), 그리고 TPZD(trapezoidal) 등이 제안되었다. 본 연구에서는 동일채널 간섭신호가 존재하는 환경에서 BTRC, MRC, TPZD, 그리고 RC(raised-cosine) 성형 펄스를 적용한 무선통신 시스템들의 성능을 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 비교 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 필터의 길이가 심볼 길이의 3이하로 짧은 경우에는 사용된 성형 필터에 따른 성능차이가 있으며, MRC 필터가 가장 우수한 성능을 가지고 RC 필터가 가장 열화된 성능을 가짐을 관찰하였다. 그러나 필터의 길이가 충분히 확보된 경우에는 성능의 차이는 거의 없었다. 그러므로 하드웨어의 제약으로 인하여 필터의 길이를 길게 할 수 없는 시스템에서는 MRC 필터를 성형 필터로 적용하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단된다.

  • The 21st century will see the formation of a“Cyber society”that, while separate form the real world, will cooperate with it, leading to the further expansion and development of world society. Cyber society allows the formation of virtual space through the connection of multiple computers in a network. In this virtual space, multiple users can communicate with each other and can collect and exchange information while moving about freely and engaging in activities. Three main technologies are vital to the construction of the Cyber society: platform technology for converting multimedia information to optical signals and performing digital processing and communication processing on such signals; communications network technology for transferring these signals from one point to another; and application technology for configuring the Cyber society that will be formed on this network. This paper describes platform technology and network technology with an emphasis on their relationship to application technology for configuring the Cyber society, and will also discuss InterSpace, one of the cyber society platform system of the Cyber society.
