Turbo-coded CDMA system is analyzed and simulated in an indoor wireless infrared channel. The indoor infrared channel is modeled as a non-directed diffuse link. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the turbo coding is very effective in improving BER (bit error rate) performance, and outperforms BCH code.

In this paper, we propose an analysis model for the performance of channel error probability in Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) using Markov model. In this model it is assumed that the compressor and decompressor work in Unidirectional Mode. And the average throughput of SCTP protocol is obtained by finding the throughputs of when the initial channel state is good or bad.

In this paper, the use of conditional Fuzzy C-Means (CFCM) aimed at estimation of desired states of an unknown digital communication channel is investigated for blind channel equalization. In the proposed CFCM, a collection of clustered centers is treated as a set of pre-defined desired channel states, and used to extract channel output states. By considering the combinations of the extracted channel output states, all possible sets of desired channel states are constructed. The set of desired states characterized by the maximal value of the Bayesian fitness function is subsequently selected for the next fuzzy clustering epoch. This modification of CFCM makes it possible to search for the optimal desired channel states of an unknown channel. Finally, given the desired channel states, the Bayesian equalizer is implemented to reconstruct transmitted symbols. In a series of simulations, binary signals are generated at random with Gaussian noise, and both linear and nonlinear channels are evaluated. The experimental studies demonstrate that the performance (being expressed in terms of accuracy and speed) of the proposed CFCM is superior to the performance of the existing method exploiting the "conventional" Fuzzy C-Means (FCM).

In anesthetized dogs, antidiuretic action of intravenously administered BRL 34915 (10.0~30.0 $\mu$/kg) was blocked by renal denervation, whereas it was not affected by glibenclamide, a selective $K_{ATP}$ blocker, given into renal artery. Diuretic action in ipsilateral kidney produced by intrarenal administration of BRL 34915 was not influenced by renal denervation, but blocked completely by glibenclamide given into the vein. Above results suggest that the antidiuretic action of BRL 34915 is mediated by renal sympathetic nerves and the diuretic action is caused by opening of $K^+$ channel within kidney.

Burst Error Channel의 에러 정정 기술로써 Reed-Solomon Product Code(RSPC)가 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 그러나 Random Error Channel과는 달리 Burst Error Channel 상에서 RSPC의 에러 정정 평가 방법에는 많은 어려움이 있다. 우리는 이번 논문에서 Burst Error Channel 상에서 RSPC의 Error Correction Capability의 확률적인 계산 방법을 기술하려 한다.

Cryopreservation affects osmotic tolerance and intracellular ion concentration through changes in expression levels of water and ion channels. Control of these changes is important for cell survival after cryopreservation. Relatively little is known about changes in $K^+$ channel expression compared to water channel expression. This study was performed to investigate changes in TASK-2 channel (KCNK5: potassium channel, subfamily K, member 5), a member of two-pore domain $K^+$ channel family, in cryopreserved mouse ovaries. Cryopreservation increased TASK-2 mRNA expression in mouse ovaries. In addition, TASK-2 protein expression was upregulated in vitrified and slowly frozen ovaries. TASK-2 protein was expressed in all area of granulosa cells that surround the oocyte within the follicle, except nucleus. Viability of cells overexpressed with TASK-2 was higher than that of vector-transfected cells. Our results found that TASK-2 expression was increased by cryopreservation and overexpression of TASK-2 decreased cryopreservation-induced cell death. These results suggest that TASK-2 upregulation might reduce cryodamage.

The ATP-sensitive potassium $(K_{ATP})$) channel is a member of inward rectifier potassium channel (Kir) that is inhibited by intracellular ATP and functions in close relation to sulfonylurea receptors (SUR). Although the molecular mechanism and physiological function of $K_{ATP}$ channels are well understood, the expression pattern during development or treatment with the channel modulators such as glybenclamide is little known. In this work, we determined mRNA levels of a $K_{ATP}$ channel (Kir6.2) and a sulfonylurea receptor (SUR2) in rat tissues by RNase protection assay. Levels of Kir6.2 and SUR2 mRNA in the rat brain and skeletal muscle were higher in adult $(90{\sim}120\;days)$ than in neonate $(2{\sim}8\;days),$ whereas those in the heart were not much different between neonate $(2{\sim}8\;days)$ and adult $(90{\sim}120\;days).$ In addition, none of $K_{ATP}$ channel modulators (opener, pinacidil and nicorandil; blocker, glybenclamide) affected the Kir6.2 mRNA levels in the heart, brain and skeletal muscle. The results indicate that the expression of Kir and SUR genes can vary age-dependently, but the expression of Kir is not dependent on the long-term treatment of channel modulators. The effect of the channel modulators on mRNA level of SUR is remained to be studied further.

In this paper, the novel dielectric resonator bandpass filter for Korea personal communication service channel combiner is proposed. The equivalent circuit of the channel bandpass filter is derived using the lumped elements. Proposed channel bandpass filter provides compact size, low insertion loss, two attenuation poles in the stop band, and excellent temperature characteristics. Two channel filters are combined with proposed dielectric resonator filter configuration to implement the 2-channel combiner. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed dielectric resonator channel bandpass filter.

In this paper, we propose a method to improve performance of pilot symbol assisted modulation(PSAM) channel estimation method for OFDM systems over frequency selective channel. When channel values are estimated, the low pilot density used for channel estimation increases not only the effective data rate but also power efficiency. Thus, the lower pilot density which is used for channel estimation is better for OFDM system. At first, we estimate the channel values which are located at the middle of adjacent pilots, and then all of the possible channel values are estiamted by using original pilot values and previously estimated pilot values. Furthermore, the error of estimated channel values is reduced by introducing guard interval which is designed acccording to maximum channel delay. Performance achieved with the proposed method is illustrated by simulation experiments in comparison with the existing methods in terms of mean squared error(MSE).
