This research aims to conduct a study on the feasibility of the LTE communication method for developing a dedicated integrated railway wireless network. An empirical analysis was carried out by establishing a dedicated integrated railway wireless network in an approximately 12km section between Illo station and Daebul station on the Honam line. Korean wireless communication methods for railway safety are different depending on each line, which makes it difficult for railway workers to cooperate with. This causes various problems. There is the ever-present risk of accidents due to call disconnection between wireless communication systems, frequency interference from commercial networks, and crosstalk. This study verified the feasibility of the 4th generation communication system, LTE, over the dedicated integrated railway wireless network as a solution for the above mentioned problems. The result shows this communication system exceeded existing performance standards of Europe GSM-R in every test item despite the location constraint of train tracks on the base station establishment.

The Jeju-Korea power system is a small-sized network with a system demand ranging from a autumn minimum of 350MW to a summer peak of 716MW. Because Jeju island is well exposed to north-east winds with high speed, applications to connect to Jeju power system are flooded. Considering physical/environmental constraints, Jeju Self-governing Province has also target for the wind power capacity of 1,350MW by 2020. It amounts to two or three times of Jeju average-demand power and wind power limit capacity announced by Korea Power Exchange (KPX) company. Wind farm connection agreements will be signed to maximize utilization of wind resource. In spite of submarine cable HVDC connected to Korea mainland, Jeju power system is independently operated by frequency and reserve control. This study reevaluates wind power limit based on the KPX criteria from 2016 to 2020. First of all wind power generation limit are affected by off-peak demand in Jeju power system. Also the possibility capacity rate of charging wind power output is evaluated by using energy storage system (ESS). As a result, in case of using 110MWh ESS, wind power limit increases 33~55MW(30~50% of ESS), wind power constraint energy decreases from 68,539MWh to 50,301MWh and wind farm capacity factor increases from 25.9 to 26.1% in 2020.

Optimal conditions for the formation and regeneration of protoplasts of the cellulolytic fungus Penicillium verruculosum were investigated. Among the various commercial cell wall lytic enzymes tested, 0.5%(w/ v) Novozym 234 was the most effective for protoplast formation. The highest yield of protoplast exceeding 4.5$\times$10$^6$/m$\ell$ obtained when 400mg of 20 hr-old mycelia was incubated with 0.5%(w/v) Novozym 234 at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. The best osmotic stabilizer for the isolation and re-generation of protoplasts was 0.7M sorbital (pH 5.6) and 0.6M MgSO$_4$(pH 5.6), respectively. When 0.6M MgSO$_4$was added as osmotic stabilizer to the complete medium, the maximum regeneration frequency obtained was 4.6-27.8%. Micromorphological change of giant protoplasts into hyphae was observed during incubation in the regeneration liquid medium.

During the design of a successful digital watermarking systems, Pseudo-Noise(PN) sequences are widely used to modulate information bits into watermark signals. In this method, the number of bits that can be hidden within a small image by means of frequency domain watermarking is limited. In this paper, we show the possibility of introducing chaotic sequences into digital watermarking systems as potential substitutes to commonly used PN-sequences. And we propose a method that transforms the text to chaotic sequence. In our current implementation, we show how the sample text is expressed by an implied unit data(watermark) and the implied unit data is regenerated into the original left. Because we use this implied data as watermark for information hiding, we can insert much more watermark compared with previous method.

This paper studied the AE(acoustic emission) characteristics of the laminated composite structures. The composite stiffened panels under the compressive loading emitted various AE signals when they buckled or changed the buckling modes. In addition, the failure initiated and propagation generated a lot of complex signals. From the continuous signal generation. we identified when the failures initiated and whether they propagated or not. The single lap joint of laminated plates under tensional load also generated AE signals when bonding region failed. The first failure occurrence and its propagation are monitored by generated AE signals. The characteristics of AE signals used in this analysis are cumulative hits, hit distribution, peak frequency of generated AE waveform and amplitude of signals. The analysis of AE signals shows that continuous increment of cumulative hits can be regarded as damage propagation and three dominant peak frequencies can correspond to typical failure modes in the laminated composites.

L-theanine is a unique amino acid, found almost solely in tea plants. It is the main component responsible for the exotic taste of green tea. In our studies of L-theanine, we have found a variety of biological activities including relaxation and the alleviation of PMS. In general, animals generate very weak electric pulses on the surface of the brain, called brain waves. Brain waves are classified into four types, namely $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\delta$ and $\theta$-waves, based on their frequency. Brain waves correlate with individual mental conditions. For example, generation of $\alpha$-waves is considered an index of relaxation. In human volunteers, $\alpha$-waves were generated on the occipital and parietal regions of the brain surface within 40 minutes after the oral administration of 50 or 200 mg Suntheanine$^{TM}$ without causing drowsiness. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a symptom unique to women which appears in the luteal phase from the ovulation period through the first day of menstruation. It possesses characteristics of having a peak just prior to menstruation and disappearing 1 - 2 days following the start of menstruation. Symptoms of PMS are generally categorized as mental, physical and social symptoms. When comparing the reported Symptoms of PMS by the methods of MDQ score, the Suntheanine$^{TM}$ group was found to have a lower incidence of PMS symptoms, including physical, mental and social symptoms. Overall, a significant alleviation of PMS symptoms by the administration of 200 mg Suntheanine$^{TM}$ was observed. With the successful industrial production of L-theanine, we are now able to supply Suntheanine$^{TM}$, offering a tremendous opportunity for designing functional foods targeting relaxation and the alleviation of PMS.

This paper describes a spread-spectrum clock generation method by utilizing a ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ digital PLL (DPLL) which is solely based on binary phase detection and does not require a linear time-to-digital converter (TDC) or other linear digital-to-time converter (DTC) circuitry. A 1-bit high-order ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ modulator and a hybrid finite-impulse response (FIR) filter are employed to mitigate the phase-folding problem caused by the nonlinearity of the bang-bang phase detector (BBPD). The ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ DPLL employs a two-point modulation technique to further enhance linearity at the turning point of a triangular modulation profile. We also show that the two-point modulation is useful for the BBPLL to improve the spread-spectrum performance by suppressing the frequency deviation at the input of the BBPD, thus reducing the peak phase deviation. Based on the proposed architecture, a 3.2 GHz spread-spectrum clock generator (SSCG) is implemented in 65 nm CMOS. Experimental results show that the proposed SSCG achieves peak power reductions of 18.5 dB and 11 dB with 10 kHz and 100 kHz resolution bandwidths respectively, consuming 6.34 mW from a 1 V supply.
