The energy constraint is still a common issue for the practical application of wireless sensors, since they are usually powered by batteries which limit their lifetime. In this paper, a practical compound energy efficiency strategy is proposed and realized in the implementation of a real time wireless sensor platform. The platform is intended for wireless structural monitoring applications and consists of three parts, wireless sensing unit, base station and data acquisition and configuration software running in a computer within the Matlab environment. The high energy efficiency of the wireless sensor platform is achieved by a proposed adaptive radio transmission power control algorithm, and some straightforward methods, including adopting low power ICs and high efficient power management circuits, low duty cycle radio polling and switching off radio between two adjacent data packets' transmission. The adaptive transmission power control algorithm is based on the statistical average of the path loss estimations using a moving average filter. The algorithm is implemented in the wireless node and relies on the received signal strength feedback piggybacked in the ACK packet from the base station node to estimate the path loss. Therefore, it does not need any control packet overheads. Several experiments are carried out to investigate the link quality of radio channels, validate and evaluate the proposed adaptive transmission power control algorithm, including static and dynamic experiments.

This paper presents the modeling of insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) in electromagnetic transients program (EMTP) simulation for the reliable calculation of switching and conduction losses. The conventional approach considering the physical property of switching devices requires many attribute parameters and large computation efforts. In contrast, the proposed method uses the curve fitting and interpolation techniques based on typical switching waveforms and a user-defined component with variable resistances to capture the dynamic characteristics of IGBTs. Therefore, the simulation time can be efficiently reduced without losing the accuracy while avoiding the extremely small time step, which is required in simulation by the conventional method. The EMTP based simulation includes turn-on and turn-off transients of IGBT, saturation state, forward voltage of free-wheeling diode, and reverse recovery characteristics, etc. The effectiveness of proposed modeling for the EMTP simulation is verified by the comparison with experimental results obtained from practical implementation in hardware.

광대역 종합정보 통신망 (B-ISDN)이 수용할 여러 서비스들은 다양한 지연, 지연 변화 및 셀 손실 확률 요구 사항을 가지고 있다. B-ISDN을 위한 적절한 제어 방법의 설계는 매우 중요하고 어려운 문제이다. 본 논문에서는, 그러한 다양한 요구사항을 만족하기 위하여, 지연 및 손실 우선 순위 모두를 가진 다종화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 손실 우선 순위의 구현을 위하여, 음성 셀은 폐기 불가한 셀(즉, 높은 우선 순위의 셀) 및 폐기 가능한 셀(즉, 낮은 우선 순위의 셀)로 생성됨을 가정하였다. 낮은 순위의 음성셀은 통신망내에서 혼잡이 발생하면 폐기될 수 있다. 본 셀 탈락 방법은 음성 및 데이터의 지연뿐만 아니라 셀 손실도 감소 시키는 것을 보여주고 있다. 이러한 부하 감소 방법은 광대역 종합정보 통신망의 이용율을 크게 개선 시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Enhancing the performance of maritime wireless communication has been highlighted by the issue of cell planning in the sea area because of lack of an appropriate Propagation Loss Model (PLM). To resolve the cell planning issue in vast sea areas, it was essential to develop the (PLM) matching the intended sea area. However, there were considerable gaps between the prediction of legacy PLMs and field measurement in propagation loss and there was a need to develop the adjusted PLM (A-PLM). Therefore, cell planning was performed on this adjusted model, including modification of the base station's location, altitude, and antenna azimuth to meet the quality objectives. Furthermore, in order to verify the availability of the cell planning, Communication Service Quality Monitoring System (CS-QMS) was developed in the LTE-Maritime project to collect LTE signal quality information from the onboard equipment at regular intervals and to ensure that the service quality was high enough to satisfy the goals in each designated grid. As a result of verification, the success rate of RSRP was 95.7% for the intensive management zone (IMZ) and 96.4% for the interested zone (IZ), respectively.

We aimed to determine the effect of timed artificial insemination (TAI) protocols on the pregnancy rate per insemination and pregnancy loss compared with AI performed at detected estrus in dairy cows and Korean Hanwoo cattle under heat stress. In dairy cattle, 1,250 sets of data that underwent AI during heat stress (temperature-humidity index ≥ 72) were categorized according to their TAI protocols or as controls: 1) PGF_2α-36 h-estradiol benzoate (EB)-36 h-TAI (PG-EB group, n = 113); 2) GnRH-7 days-PGF_2α-56 h-GnRH-16 h-TAI (Ovsynch group, n = 455); or 3) GnRH-6 days-Ovsynch (G6G group, n = 136). The remaining cows underwent AI at detected estrus (AIDE group, n = 546). The probability of pregnancy per AI 45 days after AI was higher (P < 0.01) in the PG-EB (odds ratio [OR]: 1.68), Ovsynch (OR: 1.48), and G6G (OR: 1.79) groups than in the AIDE group. However, the prevalence of pregnancy loss between 30 and 45 days after AI did not differ among the groups. In Hanwoo cattle, 617 sets of data inseminated artificially under heat stress were categorized into AIDE (n = 281), PG-EB (n = 194), and combined Ovsynch or G6G (n = 142) groups. The probability of pregnancy per AI 45 days after AI and the prevalence of pregnancy loss between 30 and 45 days after AI did not differ among the groups. Thus, implementation of a TAI protocol (PG-EB, Ovsynch, or G6G) in dairy cows under heat stress improves the pregnancy rate per AI versus AIDE, whereas there is no beneficial effect of TAI on the pregnancy rate of Hanwoo cattle under heat stress.

Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) adjustable speed drives offer significant advantages over induction motor drives in a wide variety of industrial applications such as high power density, high efficiency, improved dynamic performance and reliability. This paper proposes efficiency optimization control of IPMSM drive using adaptive fuzzy learning controller(AFLC). In order to optimize the efficiency the loss minimization algorithm is developed based on motor model and operating condition. The d-axis armature current is utilized to minimize the losses of the IPMSM in a closed loop vector control environment. The design of the current based on adaptive fuzzy control using model reference and the estimation of the speed based on neural network using ANN controller. The controllable electrical loss which consists of the copper loss and the iron loss can be minimized by the optimal control of the armature current. The minimization of loss is possible to realize efficiency optimization control for the proposed IPMSM. The optimal current can be decided according to the operating speed and the load conditions. This paper considers the design and implementation of novel technique of high performance speed control for IPMSM using AFLC. Also, this paper proposes speed control of IPMSM using AFLC1, current control of AFLC2 and AFLC3, and estimation of speed using ANN controller. The proposed control algorithm is applied to IPMSM drive system controlled AFLC, the operating characteristics controlled by efficiency optimization control are examined in detail.

A parametric empirical Bayes procedure is proposed and studied to compare treatments simultaneously with the best. Minimum Bayes risk lower bounds are derived for an additive loss function, and their relationship with Bayesian simultaneous confidence lower bounds is given. For the proposed empirical Bayes procedure, the nominal confidence level both in Bayesian sense and in frequentist's sense is shown to be controlled asymptotically. For practical implementation, a measure of significance similar to f-value is suggested with an illustrative example.

A numerical simulation and an experimental implementation of T-shaped microstrip-fed printed slot array antenna are presented in this paper. The proposed antenna with relative permittivity 4.3 and thickness 1.0mm is analyzed by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The dependence of design parameters on the bandwidth characteristics is investigated. The measured bandwidth of twin-slot array antenna is from 1.37 GHz to 2.388 GHz, which is approximately 53.9 % for return loss less than or equal to -10 dB. The bandwidth of twin-slot is about 1.06 % larger than that of single-slot antenna. The measured results are in good agreement with the FDTD results.
