In this paper, we propose an integer frequency offset estimation and compensation method based on PLC preamble correlation in DOCSIS 3.1 Downstream system. The proposed method determines the PLC preamble subcarrier location recovered from PLC data and the one obtained from PLC preamble correlation. We showed the performance of PLC preamble detection in the received signal through the maximum value detection of PLC preamble correlation. Thus we can estimate and compensate for the integer frequency offset by computing the difference of PLC subcarrier locations.

Dense crack-free yttria film with 10 $\mu m$ thickness was prepared on aluminum by aerosol deposition. X-ray diffraction pattern on the film showed that it contained the same crystalline phase as the raw powder. Transmission electron microscopy revealed a nanostructured yttria film with grains smaller than 100 nm. Tensile adhesion strength between the film and aluminum substrate was 57.8 $\pm$ 6.3MPa. According to the etching test with $CF_4-O_2$ plasma, the etching rate of the yttria film was 1/100 that of quartz, 1/10 that of sintered alumina and comparable to that of sintered yttria.

이중 에피층을 가지는 SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) RESURF(REduced SURface Field) LIGBT(Lateral Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) 소자의 에피층 두께에 따른 항복전압 특성을 분석하였다. 이중 에 피층 구조를 가지는 SOI RESURF LIGBT 소자는 전하보상효과를 얻기 위해 기존 LIGBT 소자의 n 에피로 된 영역을 n/p 에피층의 이중 구조로 변경한 소자로 n/p 에피층 영역내의 전하간 상호작용에 의해 에피 영역 전체가 공핍됨으로써 높은 에피 영역농도에서도 높은 항복전압을 얻을 수 있는 소자이다. 본 논문에서는 LIGBT 에피층의 전체 두께와 농도를 고정한 상태에서 n/p 에피층의 두께가 변하는 경우에 항복전압 특성의 변화에 대해 simulation을 통해 분석하였다.

Time comparison techniques are required for generating and keeping Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and to distribute standard clocks. These techniques play an important role in various fields, including science, finance, military, and communication. Among these techniques, Two-Way Satellite Time and Frequency Transfer (TWSTFT) ensures a relatively high accuracy, with a time comparison accuracy at a nanosecond level. However, TWSTFT systems have some limitations, such as the dependency on extra network links. In this paper, we propose an improved method for TWSTFT system operation and design a message structure for the suggestion. Additionally, we estimate the data rate and redundancy for the new TWSTFT signal with the designed message structure.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine how an Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) simulation application via smartphone effects nurses' ACLS knowledge and learning satisfaction. Methods: The participants were selected from nurses in medical Intensive Care Unit (ICU), surgical ICU and emergency room. The experimental group consists of fifty nurses who were self-learned with ACLS simulation application via smartphone and the control group of seventy-one nurses who used traditional learning materials. Outcome variables included nurses' knowledge and learning satisfaction which were collected before and after the intervention. Results: The scores of ACLS knowledge were higher in the control group compared to the experimental group (p=.001) while learning satisfaction showed no statistical difference (p=.444). In learning satisfaction, the experimental group showed higher interest than the control group (p=.019) while the control group rated higher on the item, 'the contents of education was reliable' (p=.007). Conclusion: ACLS knowledge score was graded higher in control group that used traditional learning method than the experimental group that used the smartphone application. This study showed that training with the new material significantly increased nurses' interest in ACLS education. Hence, more applications for smartphones should be developed to provide self-learning environment for nurses and improve care quality.

The purpose of this study was to inquiry of perception on the characteristics of applying students for vocational education division in the CSAT(College Scholastic Ability Test) and what were characteristics of main group by industry department teachers of specialized vocational high school. Therefore, it was highly desirable that researchers to survey what were change on the characteristics of applying for vocational education division in the CSAT and what were prospect on applying group for vocational education division in the CSAT. The survey included 100 industry department teachers of specialized vocational high school on 9 regions from Korea. The analysis of survey results were by regions, industry department teacher's career of specialized vocational high school. The results were as follows. Main reasons of reducing on applying for vocational education division in the CSAT after the class of 2010 was policy of employment reinforce in specialized vocational high school by government. The next reason was increasing students who want the next stage of education not requiring results of the CSAT. Leading group of reducing on applying for the CSAT after the class of 2010 was fine grade group. Prospect on number of applying students for vocational education division in the CSAT was maintenance on the minimum number of applying students for the CSAT, after lasting of reducing state.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the development of bovine nuclear transfer (NT) embryos cultured in serum-free conditions. Bovine NT embryos cultured in various culture conditions were compared blastocyst development, total cell number and apoptosis using TUNEL assay. In experiment 1, blastocyst rates of NT embryos were significantly higher (P<0.01) in FBS (22.0％) and BSA (26.6％) groups than in PVA (6.3％) group. Total cell number was significantly higher in FBS (78.4$\pm$19.4) and BSA (90.9$\pm$29.1) groups than in PVA group (46.0$\pm$0.0). Apoptotic cell number was significantly fewer in FBS (3.1$\pm$1.4) and BSA (1.7$\pm$1.4) groups than in PVA group (7.0$\pm$20.0) However, all of results were not different between the FBS and BSA group. In experiment 2, blastocyst rates of NT embryos were significantly higher (P<0.05) in fatty acid free-BSA (FAF-BSA) group (26.8％) than in fraction V-BSA group (11.2％). Total cell number were somewhat higher in FAF-BSA group (89.8$\pm$30.7) than in fraction V-BSA group (88.1$\pm$19.3). Apoptotic cell number were somewhat fewer in FAF-BSA (1.7$\pm$1.5) group than in fraction V-BSA group (4.2$\pm$2.9). These findings suggest that serum free condition were effective for the in vitro development of bovine NT embryos. Therefore, we concluded that fatty acid free-BSA has beneficial effect in development bovine NT embryos and can be use as a serum substitute.

Objectives: Facial diagnosis is an important part of clinical diagnosis in traditional East Asian Medicine. In this paper, we proposed a model to quantitatively classify cold sensitivity using a fully automated facial image analysis system. Methods: We investigated cold sensitivity in 452 subjects. Cold sensitivity was determined using a questionnaire and the Cold Pattern Score (CPS) was used for analysis. Subjects with a CPS score below the first quartile (low CPS group) belonged to the cold non-sensitivity group, and subjects with a CPS score above the third quartile (high CPS group) belonged to the cold sensitivity group. After splitting the facial images into train/validation/test sets, the train and validation set were input into a convolutional neural network to learn the model, and then the classification accuracy was calculated for the test set. Results: The classification accuracy of the low CPS group and high CPS group using facial images in all subjects was 76.17%. The classification accuracy by sex was 69.91% for female and 62.86% for male. It is presumed that the deep learning model used facial color or facial shape to classify the low CPS group and the high CPS group, but it is difficult to specifically determine which feature was more important. Conclusions: The experimental results of this study showed that the low CPS group and the high CPS group can be classified with a modest level of accuracy using only facial images. There was a need to develop more advanced models to increase classification accuracy.
