  • Cuticle micromorphology of four families of Korean gymnosperms, Cycadaceae, Ginkgoaceae, Taxaceae, and Cephalotaxaceae, were studied with scanning electron microscopy. The outer and inner features of abaxial and adaxial cuticles were described in details; the absent or present of Florin ring, orifice, trichome, and plug and their shape, the shape and periclinal and anticlinal wall sculpture of epidermal cells, the shape of cuticular flange of epidermal cell, guard cell, and subsidiary cell, the number of stomatal bands and rows, and stomatal apparatus including the shape of polar extension, number of subsidiary cells, the sculpture of guard cell and subsidiary cell. Most of these features have not been sufficiently substantiated by the previous reprots. Furthermore, all the species investigated showed distinctive cuticle morphology with morphological and taxonomical informations.

  • The sensory transduction processes of blue light in guard cells have been suggested the involvement of Ca$^{2+}$/calmodulin-dependent myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) or MLCK-like proteins. The source of Ca$^{2+}$ required for the signal transduction process was investigated in guard cell protoplasts (GCPs). The GCPs showed the typical H$^+$ pumping activity by blue light (200 $\mu$mol m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$) and fusicoccin (10 $\mu$M) under background red light (600 $\mu$mol m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$). The blue light-dependent H$^+$ pumping was not significantly affected by the externally changed Ca$^{2+}$ concentrations. The addition of 1 mM Ca$^{2+}$ in the bathing medium ratherly inhibited the H$^+$ pumping. In contrast, the blue light-dependent H$^+$ pumping was inhibited by caffeine and 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (BHQ), inhibitor of C$^{2+}$-ATPase in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) without inhibiting the H $^+$ pump. The inhibition by caffeine and BHQ was fully reversible. The extent of inhibition by caffeine and BHQ was larger when they were added together than when added separately. The results suggest that Ca$^{2+}$ required for the blue light-dependent H$^+$ pumping may be released from the intracellular Ca$^{2+}$ stores, probably ER in guard cells.

  • For measurement of dielectric constants, the commercial parallel plate electrodes system with guard-ring electrode have been widely used up to now. The capacitance derived from the parallel plate electrodes capacitor with guard-ring electrode is calculated by the equation of ($C={\epsilon}\;{\cdot}\;\frac{area\;of\;electrod}{distance\;between\;electrodes}$). Therefore, in parallel plate electrode capacitor, the diameter of the guarded electrode, the gap size between guarded electrode and guard ring, and distance between two active electrode should be measured precisely to calculate dielectric constants from the measured capacitance. Consequently their mechanical measurement uncertainties are directly contributed. Especially the air-gap between the electrodes and dielectric specimen at the system must be existed and the measurement error derived from the air-gap is impossible to evaluate as measurement uncertainties. In this study, we analyze the uncertainty of the commercial dielectric constant test cell using 3 kinds CRMs.

  • The effects of light and $CO_2$ on the electrophysiological characteristics of guard cells in the intact leaf and isolated epidermis have been investigated. Fast hyperpolarization of guard cell apoplastic PD in the intact leaf was recorded reaching up to around 7 mV and 20 mV in response to light and $CO_2$. Whenever the experiments were attempted with isolated epidermis, there was no response to light and $CO_2$. In order to determine the influence of the mesophyll cells, the apoplastic PD of guard cells in isolated epidermis was measured in the presence of the mesophyll supernatant or the control medium. The apoplastic PD in isolated epidermis was hyperpolarized to -7mV, changing from -22mV to -29mV at 40 min. But, when isolated epidermis was incubated with the supernatant from mesophyll cells incubated in the light, the apoplastic PD in isolated epidermis was hyperpolarized to -19 mV, changing from -22 mV to -40.5 mV. $CO_2$ also caused a change of 0.1 to 0.3 pH unit in the intact leaf. However, this change was absent in isolated epidermis. A vibrating probe was used to detect the change in electrical currents at the surface of excised intact leaves and isolated epidermis. The reading of excised intact leaves in the dark was $0.5\muA\;cm^{-2},$ remaining steady until illuminated. Light increased the current on the surface of excised leaves to about $0.8\muA\;cm^{-2},$. However, light had no effect in the current on the surface of isolated epidermis. Apoplastic pH changes across the stomatal complex in response to light and dark were measured both in the intact leaves and isolated epidermis over the same time period using pH micro-electrodes. The guard cell wall of intact leaf was acidified to 2.5 pH unit, falling from pH 7.5 to pH 5.0 in the first 10 min. in the light. At the same time the guard cell wall pH of isolated epidermis fell from pH 7.5 to pH 7.0 at 10 min. The guard cell wall pH of isolated epidermis incubated in the mesophyll supernatant fell from pH 7.6 to pH 6.7 at 10 min. Likewise, It could be imagined that an electrical signal, chemicals and hormones propagated from the mesophyll in response to light and $CO_2$ could control a fast stomatal response.

  • The K+ and Na+ contents in the guard cells of Agave which had a characteristic of CAM plant were measured by using "Rolling technique". That results were correspond with the change of the stomatal aperture width. That is to say, stomatal movement of Agave is due to the change of K+and Na+ concentration in the guard cells. As Agave which was used in this experiment showed two peaks of which one was at 3 hour and the other was at 24 hour in stomatal aperture width, it was seemed that Agave had both characteristics of CAM and $C_3$pattern.

  • Blue light (BL) induces stomatal opening through activation of H$^{+}$ pump, which creates electrical gradient across the plasma membrane for $K^{+}$ uptake into guard cells. The pump is the plasma membrane H$^{+}$ -ATPase and is activated via phosphorylation of the C-terminus with concomitant binding of the 14-3-3 protein. The opening is initiated by the perception of BL through phototropin (phot), which are recently identified as BL receptors in stomatal guard cells. In this study, we provide the biochemical evidence for phots as BL receptors in stomatal guard cells. vfphot was phosphorylated reversibly by BL, and phosphorylation levels of vfphot increased earlier than those of the plasma membrane W-ATPase. BL-dependent phosphorylations of vfphot and H$^{+}$-ATPase showed similar fluence dependency. Staurosporin, an inhibitor of serine/threonine protein kinase, and diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI), an inhibitor of flavoprotein, inhibited BL-dependent phosphorylations of vfphot and H$^{+}$ -ATPase. These results indicate that vfphot acts as a BL-receptor mediating stomatal opening.l opening.

  • 하향링크 OFDMA(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) 시스템의 경우 순환전치 구간은 지연확산만을 고려하면 되지만 상향링크 OFDMA 시스템에서는 지연확산과 함께 상향링크 신호의 타이밍 오차를 고려한 보호구간이 필요하다. 특히 셀 반경이 큰 셀에서 초기 액세스를 하는 경우, 핸드오버를 하는 경우, 오래 동안 단말이 기지국과 데이터를 주고받지 않은 경우에는 타이밍 오차가 매우 클 수 있으며 매우 큰 보호구간이 요구될 수 있다. 상향링크 OFDMA 시스템에서 작은 크기의 순환전치 구간을 유지하기 위해서는 시스템의 순환전치 구간은 그대로 둔 체 큰 타이밍 오차가 발생할 수 있는 단말의 보호구간만 증대시키는 방법이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 상항링크 OFDMA 시스템의 보호구간을 사용자 개별적으로 확장하는 방법을 제안한다.

  • This thesis, concentrates on marine collision risks of the area divided by cells. Using a gas molecular collision calculation model, a collision risk model is proposed. Collision risk is estimated by relative angle, relative speed, and ship's density in the cell. For one week, Automatic Identification System (AIS) data was collected and analyzed on the Busan North Port area. The results indicate a high-risk area at the sea route connection point in Busan North Port. It also shows that twilight is the time of day when most collisions occur. This means that the area is high risk due to the number of collisions and other dangerous factors related to twilight. Although there is still need to consider other risks such as grounding risks, the results of this study are useful to for plotting a risk map for the port.

  • IEEE802.16의 물리계층 중 하나인 SC-FDE (Single Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization)는 OFDM과 비슷한 성능 및 복잡도를 유지하면서 OFDM에 비해 비선형성 전력 증폭기에 덜 민감하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. SC-FDE의 보호구간은, OFDM의 경우에서와 같이, 최대 지연확산에 의해서 결정된다. 대부분의 무선통신 환경에서 지연확산은 작은 값을 가지지만 산악지방이나 중계기의 영향 등에 의해서 매우 큰 지연확산이 발생할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 가변 길이의 보호구간을 가지는 SC-FDE를 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 라 셀에 따라 혹은 각 가입자에 따라서 보호구간의 길이를 결정할 수 있다.
