Ultra Wideband(UWB) technologies have been developed to exploit a new spectrum resource in substances and to realize ultra-high-speed communication, high precision geolocation, and other applications. The energy of UWB signal is extremely spread from near DC to a few GHz. This means that the interference between conventional narrowband systems and UWB systems is inevitable. However, the interference effects had not previously been studied from UWB wireless systems to conventional mobile wireless systems sharing the frequency bands such as Korean Cellular CDMA and WCDMA. This paper experimentally evaluates the interference from two kinds of UWB sources, namely a direct-sequence spread-spectrum CDMA(DS-CDMA) UWB source and an impulse radio UWB source, to a Cellular CDMA and WCDMA digital transmission system. The average frame error rate degradation of each system are presented. From these experimental results, the interference effects of DS-CDMA UWB source is not severe compared to the Impulse UWB.

The present study is following a series of research investigations on design resources coming from collected data referring to users' awareness and preferences. The aim of this research is to test the Healthcare Environmental Color Index as a basis for practitioners in the field of healthcare design. An array of color samples selected from previous research, have been presented to the respondents via an online survey, in order to identify the preferences of the two groups on the relation between environmental color and health. As a result of the first experiment and through the comparison of processed data, the maximum percentage of respondents from each group is validating the relation between environmental color and health. For the second experiment we intend to highlight the patterns of color preferences for each group, and thus to test the color samples healing function. The compared data also showed a higher awareness of Koreans than Romanians on the potential of color applied to healing environment. Last but not least in the third experiment we show the top five color samples preferred by each group. It is significant that the comparison of the results validated once more some of our previous findings related to the healthcare environment, such as: the general preference for the green hue (associated to fatigue relax according to color psychology) and the blue hue (sedation release effect) but also the yellow hue - associated to bright energy. Three out of the top five preferred color samples have been identical to both groups while the other two samples have shown characteristic variations. These results show that similarities are strong and can be used in a glocal design strategy as an accessible tool for any practitioner. Based on the Healthcare Environmental Color Index and users' preferences analysis, a new design culture for healthcare can be established and developed.

Thanks to the shift in awareness of environmentally friendly energy and government initiatives, practical light-emitting diode(LED) lighting fixtures have emerged and are being distributed, resulting in very large energy savings. However, in actual use of LED lighting, it is possible to use it as an individual, but when using a large street light or a whole home lighting, the whole lighting system is realized due to various problems such as efficiency, stability, and reliability. Doing so has several problems. Although AC-LED has been developed recently to solve safety problems such as heat generation phenomenon of the conventional DC-LED, it also has various problems such as quality safety and reliability, which are difficult to use as outdoor lighting using existing AC Power. This happens. Accordingly, the appropriate power for AC-LED should be developed and applied, and the emergence of such LED lighting will play a role as a tool that can overcome the limitations of existing LED lighting and implement sustainable energy saving.

Photovoltaic (PV) module can generate electricity using sunlight without causing any environmental degradation. Due to higher fossil fuel prices and environmental awareness, PV applications are becoming more popular as clean source of electricity generation. PV output is sensitive to the operating temperature and can be drastically affected in Building Integrated PV (BIPV) systems. PV Solarwall (SWPV) combination and PV systems have been evaluated in this study for improvement in electrical output and system costs. PV modules under forced ventilation. A 75W polycrystalline silicon PV module was fixed on SW in front of the ventilation fan as it was indicated to be the coolest position on the SW in phoenix simulations. The effectiveness of cooling by means of the forced ventilating air stream has been studied experimentally. The results indicate that there appears to be significant difference in temperature as well as electricity output comparing the SWPV and BIPV options. Electrical output power recovered is about $4\%$ during the typical day of the month of February. RETScreen(R) analysis of a 3kW PV system hypothetically located at Taegu has shown that with typical temperature reduction of $15^{{\circ}C$, it is possible to reduce the simple payback periods by one year. The work described in this paper may be viewed as an appraisal of a SWPV system based on its improved electrical and financial performances due to its ability to operate at relatively lower temperatures.

Wireless Sensor Networks have been rapidly developed due to the advances of sensor technology and are expected to be applied to various applications in many fields. In Wireless Sensor Networks, schemes for managing the network energy-efficiently are most important. For this purpose, there have been a variety of researches to suggest routing protocols. However, existing researches have ideal assumption that all sensor nodes have sensing data to transmit. In this paper, we designed and implemented a sensing-aware cluster selection algorithm based on LEACH-C for the sensor network in which part of sensors have sensing data. We also simulated proposed algorithm on several network situation and analyzed which situation is suitable for the algorithm. By the simulation result, selecting cluster head among the sensing nodes is most energy-efficient and the result shows application of sensing-awareness in cluster head selection when not all sensors have sensing data.

Recently, the rapidly growing new generation of renewable energy projects has emerged as an artificial building that creates a mix of natural environments and disruption to the environment. It serves as a quality inhibitor for rural landscapes and implies the absence of favorable rural landscape. Therefore, the study looked at the color scheme of residents, visitors, and experts in the village, which changed the color of the landscape, and analyzed the color scheme of residents, visitors, and experts. In order to do so, the village was divided into three types and conducted a survey by the general public and experts. In the case of the survey, residents of the three districts (Yeoju, Dam yang, Jeju) were surveyed for 210 residents, and the survey conducted a survey and analysis of 30 people in the area. As a result, both the general public and experts recognized the color change in the energy business, which resulted in the identification of associations and colors of the village. In addition, the recognition and satisfaction of the current situation showed that the education programs for the public were more important than the professionals, as the public show ed low levels of public awareness. Based on this research, we expect to be able to utilize the plan as a guideline for the project of installing solar panels, which is expected to be implemented in the beginning of the project, and can be used as a guideline for the establishment of the solar panels.

In order to support increased consumer awareness regarding energy consumption, we present new ways of monitoring and predicting with energy in electric appliances. The proposed system is a design of a common electrical power outlet called smart plug that measures the amount of current passing through current sensor at 0.5 second. To acquire data for training and testing the proposed neural network, weather parameters used include average temperature of day, min and max temperature, humidity, and sunshine hour as input data, and power consumption as target data from smart plug. Using the experimental data for training, the neural network model based on Back-Propagation algorithm was developed. Multi layer perception network was used for nonlinear mapping between the input and the output data. It was observed that the proposed neural network model can predict the power consumption quite well with correlation coefficient was 0.9965, and prediction mean square error was 0.02033.

High Caffeinated Energy Drink (HCED) consumption among adolescents has been exponentially increasing. The intake of HCED may cause various side effects. However, studies regarding intake of HCED in adolescents have been rarely implemented in Korea. The purpose of this study was to investigate HCED consumption patterns among adolescents and prevalence of adverse effects from HCED consumption and to compare them between middle and high school students. The self-reported questionnaire with 31 questions was used to evaluate HCED consumption patterns and adverse effects. Among 792 students, 455 who had drunken HCED were included in the analysis. Nine (4.0%) Middle School Students (MSSs) and 11 (4.8%) High School Students (HSSs) responded that they did not know HCED, and 188 (83.6%) MSSs and 221 (96.1%) HSSs had heard that HCED contains high amount of caffeine. Seventy-four (36.8%) MSSs drank their first HCEDs from curiosity and 63 (31.3%) MSSs to stay awake while studying. However, 134 (61.2%) HSSs consumed their first HCEDs to keep awake while studying, and 57 (26.0%) HSSs from curiosity. Twenty-eight (12.5%) MSSs and 46 (20.3%) HSSs had increase in heart rate, 52 (23.2%) MSSs and 83 (36.4%) HSSs insomnia, and 8 (3.6%) MSSs and 18 (7.9%) HSSs hand and facial tremor. As shown in this study, HCED consumption among adolescents in Korea was high. Thus, Korean government should continuously focus its efforts to educate not only children and adolescents but also their parents for HCEDs in order to increase parents' awareness of HCEDs and conduct education regarding HCED intake at home above all.

Various attempts have been made to prevent crime risk. One of the cases where outdoor pedestrians are attacked by criminals is the abnormal health condition. When a mental or mental condition that can not sustain normal walking due to drunkenness is exposed, the case of being a crime is revealed through crime case analysis. In this study, we propose a method for estimating the state of an individual that can be detected in outdoor activities. In order to avoid the inconvenience of installing a separate terminal for event information transmission of sensors and sensors, it is possible to estimate an abnormal state by using a 3-axis acceleration sensor built in a smart phone. The state of the user can be estimated by analyzing the momentum of the user and analyzing it with the passage of time. It is possible to distinguish the flow of time at regular intervals, to recognize the activity patterns in each time band, and to distinguish between normal and abnormal. In this study, we have evaluated the total amount of kinetic energy and kinetic energy in each direction of the acceleration sensor and the Fourier transformed value of the total energy amount to distinguish the abnormal state.
