We simulated the performance improvement of a wind turbine installed on the pitched roof-building(apartment in urban area, 50m height). A nozzle shape wind guide is added on the roof of a model apartment. The nozzle-diifuser structure effects for the free stream wind (average 4m/s, 50m height in Incheon) is studied by a basic CFD analysis. This paper examines the effects of roof structure on the wind velocity and the wind distortion effects by a front building. The possible wind power generation capacity on building roof in urban is calculated.

분산 비디오 복호화 기술은 저 용량 저 전력 시스템을 위한 초경량 복호화기를 제공할 수 있어 최근 많은 이슈가 되고 있다. 그러나 분산 비디오 복호화 기술은 피드백 채널을 이용하여 반복적인 패리티 비트 제어 방법을 주로 사용하기 때문에 전체 복호화 시간이 매우 길다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 분산 비디오 복호화 시스템의 고속화가 반드시 필요하며 이를 위해 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 분산 비디오 복호화의 고속화를 위하여 보조정보와 LDPCA 프레임의 율-왜곡을 이용하여 패리티 비트 요구량을 예측하는 방법을 제안한다. 모의실험을 통해 제안하는 방법을 이용함으로써 분산 비디오 복호화에 소요되는 전제 복호 시간 대비 약 80% 시간 절감 효과를 보인다.

Due to their performances and inherent benefits, especially in medium-voltage and high-power applications, multilevel inverters have received an increasing attention in real world industrial applications. The present paper deals with a review of the main multilevel inverter topologies as well their most common derived and hybrid structures quoted in previous research works. It also encompasses an investigation on voltage harmonic elimination and THD estimation. For that reason, the paper summarizes the most relevant modulation techniques used so far to enhance the output voltage quality. Theoretical formulas evoked in the literature, for calculating the output voltage THD upper and lower bounds are reported and verified by adequate simulations.

In this paper we propose a new method for the recognition of 2-D partially occluded objects. The border of the object is transformed to a curve in arc length-accumulated interior angle plane. The transformed curve of an image is partitioned so that each segment is bounded by the concave interior angles. In order to tolerate shape distortion due to the polygonal approximation of the boundary of the object a group of feature points of the input image are matched with those of model views. The estimation method for positions and orientations of the identified objects objects is presented.

In this paper, we estimate the performance requirements of general-purpose DSP for Carrier Recovery of OFDM DVB-T receiver. Firstly, we transported the designed fixed-point OFDM DVB-T model to a floating-point software model written in C. Then, we measured the number of instruction cycles required for operation of Carrier Recovery in time. We use SignalMaster$\^$TM/ DSP platform of LYRtech Inc. as a environment of estimation, and Simulink$\^$TM/ as a graphical interface, Code Composer StudioTM of TI as profiler and compiler, and SPW$\^$TM/ for presenting functional reliability and comparing the performance distortion with fixed-point model. As a result, we show the required number of DSPs in our DSP-based system, and introduce the need of Multi-DSP-based system.

In this paper, we proposed a fast algorithm for inter prediction included the most complexity in H.264/AVC. It decide search range according to direction of predicted motion vector, and then perform adaptive candidate spiral search. Simultaneously, it perform motion estimation of variable loop with threshold for variable block size. Conclusively, it is implemented in JM FME with high complexity applying to rate-distortion optimization. Experimental results show that significant complexity reduction is achieved while the degradation in video quality is negligible.

In this paper, A progressive coding of mean difference pyramid by Hadamard transform of the difference between two successive pyramid levels has been studied. A block adaptive bit allocation method based on ac energy of each sub-block has been proposed, which efficiently reduces the final distortion in the progressive transmission of image parameters. In our scheme, the dc energy equals the sum of the quantization errors of the Hadamard transform coefficients at previous level. Therefore proposed allocation method includes the estimation of dc energy at each pyramid level. Computer simulation results show some improvements in terms of MSE and picture quality over the conventional fixed allocation scheme.

Ground movements during tunnelling have the potential for major impact on nearby buildings, utilities and streets. The impacts on buildings are assessed by linking the magnitude of ground loss at the source of ground loss around tunnel to the lateral and vertical displacements on the ground surface, and then to the lateral strain and angular distortion, and resulting damage in the building. To prevent or mitigate the impacts on nearby buildings, it is important to understand the whole mechanism from tunnelling to building damage. This paper discusses tunneling-induced ground movements and their impacts on nearby buildings, including the importance of the soil-structure interactions. In addition, a building damage criterion, which is based on the state of strain, is presented and discussed in detail and the overall damage assessment procedure is provided for the estimation of tunnelling-induced building damage considering the effect of soil-structure interaction.

This study proposes a modeling process of equivalent terrains to reduce the computational load and time of a full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation. To verify the suitability of the proposed process, an original terrain model with a size of $3m{\times}3m$ is equivalently quantized based on the minimum range resolution of a radar, and the radar image of the quantized model is compared with that of the original model. The results confirm that the simulation time can be reduced from 407 hours to 162 hours without a significant distortion of the radar images, and an average estimation error of the quantized model (20.4 mm) is similar to that of the original model (20.3 mm).

A robust and efficient text extraction is very important for an accuracy of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems. Natural scene images with degradations such as uneven illumination, perspective distortion, complex background and multi color text give many challenges to computer vision task, especially in text extraction. In this paper, we propose a method for extraction of the text in signboard images based on a combination of mean shift algorithm and weighting scheme of hue and saturation in HSI color space for clustering algorithm. The number of clusters is determined automatically by mean shift-based density estimation, in which local clusters are estimated by repeatedly searching for higher density points in feature vector space. Weighting scheme of hue and saturation is used for formulation a new distance measure in cylindrical coordinate for text extraction. The obtained experimental results through various natural scene images are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
