It has been shown that the principal subspace-based multichannel Wiener filter (MWF) provides better performance than the conventional MWF for suppressing interference in the case of a single target source. It can efficiently estimate the target speech component in the principal subspace which estimates the acoustic transfer function up to a scaling factor. However, as the input signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) becomes lower, larger errors are incurred in the estimation of the acoustic transfer function by the principal subspace method, degrading the performance in interference suppression. In order to alleviate this problem, a principal subspace modification method was proposed in previous work. The principal subspace modification reduces the estimation error of the acoustic transfer function vector at low SIRs. In this work, a frequency-band dependent interpolation technique is further employed for the principal subspace modification. The speech recognition test is also conducted using the Sphinx-4 system and demonstrates the practical usefulness of the proposed method as a front processing for the speech recognizer in a distant-talking and interferer-present environment.

This paper deals with assessment of potential interference between grounding electrodes using ETM(Electrolytic Tank Modeling) method. When a test current flowed through grounding electrode, potential rise was measured and analyzed using an electrolytic tank in real time. In order to analyze the potential interference between grounding electrodes, ETM method was studies. Potential interference between isolated grounding electrodes was evaluated as functions of the separation distance between grounding electrodes and the configuration of grounding electrode to be induced. It was found that the separation distance between grounding electrodes in reducing the potential interference was a major factor.

In order to correct the strut interference in wind tunnel tests, image methods are conventionally used. Because of their excessive extra runs, some alternatives have been tried to reduce the extra runs. In this study, these alternatives were reviewed and checked by the strut interference evaluation with the panel code, CMARC. The present work shows that the strut interference is free from neither model configuration nor model attitude. This dependency makes the alternatives to the image method unfeasible. The 3-run image method was also evaluated. It worked well even for the exaggerated windshield. At this point, reducing the image runs by neglecting parameters affecting minor influence would be best.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was conducted to identify the impact of Symptom Severity and Symptom Interference on Sleep Disturbance among cancer patients. Methods: This study was conducted from October 8th to October 25th, 2012. One hundred eight cancer patients were recruited from S city in Korea. The instruments used in this study were the Symptom Severity, Symptom Interference and the Sleep Disturbance scales for patients with cancer. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. Results: The Sleep Disturbance for cancer patients showed a significant relationship with Symptom Interference and cancer stage. The significant factors influencing Sleep Disturbance were Symptom Severity and Symptom Interference. They explained 40.5% of the variance in stage IV. Conclusion: Patients with cancer experienced Symptom Severity and Symptom Interference which led to a negative effect on Sleep Disturbance. The results suggest that intervention programs to reduce Symptom Severity, Symptom Interference could improve Sleep Disturbance for cancer patients.

본 연구에서는 LMDS 시스템의 설계시 셀 내부에서 발생할 수 있는 간섭을 분석하였다. 셀 내부에서 발생할 수 있는 간섭은 크게 동일 편파 인접 채널 간섭, 교차 편파 간섭, 송수신 채널간의 간섭이 있을 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 각각에 대한 분석 결과를 종합하여 셀 내부의 간섭 조건을 분석하였다. 이러한 각각의 간섭을 종합한 결과 강우 감쇄를 고려한 상황에서 C/N은 2 km 구간까지 19 dB 이상을 유지하지만, 그 이상의 구간에서는 급격히 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 LMDS 시스템의 셀 반경은 2 km가 적절하다고 판단되었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 분석결과에 근거하여 실험을 진행하였으며 이론적인 결과와 마찬가지로 C/I=20 dB 이상을 만족하여야만 강우감쇄 상황에서도 정상적인 수신이 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

Noise barrier is generally used with welding of joint rail for railway noise reduction in our country. But the noise barrier for high speed railway has weak point in low frequencies about 315Hz band. In this study, For developing of Interference-type Noise Reduction Device(INRD), acoustic analysis were performed using commercial software. For verifying the improvement in the noise reduction, noise measurement before and after installing of INRD were performed in Anechoic Chamber. From these acoustic analysis and noise measurement, it was known that developed INRD has a good noise reduction performance and can be used efficiently with conventional noise barrier.

Various methods for fixation of graft have been widely used for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament. However, the biomechanical strength of each fixation techniques are not fully understood. The purpose of this study is to compare the pull out strength of different fixation techniques which is probably the most important factor for the success at the initial stage of healing. Biomechanical test was carried out to measure and compare the pull out tensile strength of five different fixation techniques in 35 pig(Yorkshire) knees. ANOVA and Duncan multiple comparison test was applied for statistical analysis. In the two fixation techniques with bone patellar tendon bone graft, the mean maximum tensile strength was $1333.4{\pm}148.5N$ with titanium interference screw, while it was $1310.1{\pm}168.9N$ with biodegradable interference screw. The failure mode were pulled out of bone plugs from the femoral tunnel in majority cases. In the fixations with hamstring tendon, the mean maximum tensile strength were $1405.9{\pm}135.1N$ with SemiFix screw, $820.3{\pm}104.5N$ with biodegradable interference screw, and $682.1{\pm}54.2N$ with Endobutton. The mode of failure was variable in each technique. The tendon was pulled out from the tunnel in biodegradable interference screw fixation, the screw was bent in the SemiFix system, and the polyester tape were ruptured or the buttons were pulled into tunnel in Endobutton fixation. The mean maximum tensile strength of two interference screws with bone patellar tendon bone was statistically comparable to that of SemiFix with hamstring tendon. However biodegradable interference screw and Endobutton with hamstring tendon showed weaker maximum tensile strength than above three fixation techniques (P<0.05).

변화탐지 과제를 사용한 최근의 시각작업기억 연구는 기억된 표상을 감각적 표상과 대조하는 비교처리 과정이 상대적으로 신속하게 수행될 가능성을 보고하였다[1]. 이러한 가설을 검증하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 기억항목에 대한 공고한 표상 형성이 요구되는 시점 또는 기억항목과 검사항목에 대한 비교 처리가 요구되는 시점에 역행패턴차폐 자극을 제시하여 두 처리 과정에서의 차폐 간섭 효과의 발현 유무를 비교하였다. 실험 1에서는 네 개의 기억항목 또는 검사항목의 제시에 뒤이어 64ms 또는 150ms의 차폐출현간격을 두고 차폐자극이 제시되었으며 피험자는 기억과 검사항목 간 차이 유무를 보고하는 변화탐지 과제를 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 기억항목에 뒤이어 차폐가 제시된 경우(기억차폐 시행)에는 차폐출현간격에 관계없이 변화탐지 정확도가 저조했으나 검사항목에 뒤이어 차폐가 제시된 경우(검사차폐시행)에는 차폐출현간격 64ms 조건에 비해 150ms 조건에서 변화탐지 정확도가 상대적으로 높았다. 실험 2에서는 항목의 개수를 변화시키고(1, 2, 3, 4개) 차폐출현간격을 세분화(117ms, 234ms, 350ms, 584ms)시켜 항목 개수의 증가와 차폐출현간격의 감소에 따른 간섭 효과의 증감패턴을 조사하였다. 기억차폐시행에서는 항목의 개수가 늘어나고 차폐출현간격이 짧아 질수록 점차 증가하는 간섭패턴이 관찰되었으나, 검사차폐시행에서는 이러한 패턴이 상대적으로 미미하였다. 이러한 결과는 시각작업기억의 비교처리과정이 공고화 과정에 비해 상대적으로 신속하고 정확하게 수행된다는 기존 연구의 제안을 지지한다.

To comply with CE marking requirements, the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and low-voltage directive (LVD) tests are conducted on the sub-racks of International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) AC/DC converters and bypass switches. The EMC tests consist of a series of tests, including the electromagnetic interference test, the electromagnetic field immunity test, and the rapid transient burst immunity test. In the LVD test, the electric shock protection test, the xcessive temperature limit and heat resistance of equipment tests, and the fire spread prevention test are performed. This work presents and reviews the European Directive for EMC/LVD and introduces the methods of EMC and LVD tests for the sub-racks of AC/DC converters and bypass switches. It also evaluates the test method and results to meet the European Directive requirements for CE marking. The sub-racks of ITER AC/DC converters and bypass switches successfully pass the EMC and LVD tests.
