  • After the COVID-19 crisis, the world's terrain has changed completely to the extent that it has been divided before and after Corona. We are living in the era of new normals, things we never thought of before Corona19, such as wearing masks everywhere, maintaining social distance, sitting on one side in the cafeteria, and online face-to-face classes. Perhaps the most seriously affected by the COVID-19 incident is the church. How should the church respond to the various problems caused by COVID-19? This study intends to re-examine the five essential missions of the church in the post-Corona19 era. The five essences are the three essential functions of the intangible church: didake (teaching), kerygma (declaration), diakonia (service), and the two essential functions of the tangible church: koinonia (association) and leiturgia (worship). Of these, koinonia and leiturgia are the most seriously threatened by the restraint of face-to-face worship in the incident of COVID-19. In times of crisis, the church needs to strengthen its vertical koinonia with God in order to perform its didake function well and increase the efficiency of the horizontal koinonia among believers. However, in the situation where face-to-face worship is desired due to social distance, teaching and proclaiming the Bible is the most important part. For this, it is considered that a specialized ministry is needed to produce high quality contents.

  • The KOINONIA is developed to communicate with connection of the short-range devices by the technique of the WPAN. The piconet consists of one master and slaves above one, the multi-poconet consists of parent piconet and child piconets which is formed the basis of parent piconet. The child piconet consists of the child master and slaves. The child master takes a role of the master in the child piconet and the slave in the parent piconet. In this paper, the multi-piconet is made as above, then we estimate the max capacity of assigned CTA by level, number of slaves in child piconet. A super-frame is the maximum 65.535ms of usable capacity. Because of it is a fued number, We suggested quantitatively the fixed reduction of an usable capacity by increases of number of slave and child-master in the piconet. And we analyze the reduction of an available capacity by the increase of number of child piconet.

  • 본 논문에서는 기존의 여러 가지 무선 홈 네트워크에 대해 개괄하고 새로운 표준인 Binary CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)를 이용한 Koinonia 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 멀티 코드 CDMA 시스템을 고속의 멀티미디어 전송을 위해 변형한 형태이다. 멀티코드 사용 시 송신 신호 파형이 멀티 레벨로 나타나게 되어 시스템의 구조가 복잡해지고 가격이 비싸지는 단점이 존재한다. 이러한 기술적 문제점을 해결하기 위해 멀티레벨의 신호를 부호화 블록을 통해 정진폭으로 변환해 전송한다. 이를 통해서 복잡한 멀티 레벨의 신호가 간단히 나타나므로 전송되는 신호의 파형이 간단히 표현되어지고 수신기의 구조가 간단해진다. 그리고, 제안된 시스템은 멀티 코드 방식을 기반으로 하기 때문에 디지털 가전기기나 3세대 이동통신과, WPAN과 관련된 무선 네트워크 응용과 같은 미래의 고속의 무선 멀티미디어 서비스를 지원하기에 적합하다.

  • 본 논문은 스케줄링 기반 Ad-hoc Network에서의 Relay Network Protocol에 관한 것으로, Koinonia V2.0의 MAC Layer Protocol을 기반으로 Relay Network Protocol을 설계하였다. Ad-hoc Network 기반의 Relay Network Protocol은 단일 주파수 채널을 이용한 Relay Network Protocol과 듀얼 주파수 채널을 이용한 Relay Network Protocol이 있다. 전자는 하나의 모뎀 칩을 사용하여 시스템이 단순하고 전력소모가 적은 반면, 데이터 전송 속도가 낮아지고, 후자는 데이터 전송 속도에서 손해를 보지 않는 반면, 시스템이 복잡하고 전력소모가 많은 단점이 있다. 본 연구를 통해 Ad-hoc Network 기반의 Relay Network Protocol 구현에 대한 방법론을 제시할 수 있었다.

  • In ubiquitous society, there have been increasing demands on safety and security issues with infrastructures and services based on wireless technology. In this paper, we first introduce our own developed technology Binary CDMA to meet those demands. Then we present a wireless A/V surveillance system based on the Binary CDMA technology. The implemented wireless A/V surveillance system is composed of wireless terminals, wireless multiple channel processors, and an A/V management server, and the system gives a hint that the Binary CDMA technology can be adopted in practical ubiquitous systems to handle safety and security issues.

  • Corona 19 brought about a major shift in the Korean church's pastoral style. Contact and non-contact ministry styles using the Internet and media devices are being held together. The elderly, who have been classified as digital vulnerable, need to see whether they are properly adapting to these changes and they have any difficulties in their religious lives. This study is to organize the current status of Corona 19 related to Korean churches, look at the current state of church programs for Christian elderly people, look at how important the religious life is to their lives, and to suggest educational pastoral methods for their religious lives based on the theory of Maria Harris' educational ministry. First, in terms of Koinonia, it was suggested that the heritage, beliefs, values and ways of life held by the Christian elderly be shared with people inside and outside the church in order to entertain and embrace everyone without alienation. Second, from the perspective of Leiturgia, educational ministry was proposed to expand prayer life from a personal area to a public area to become a life of practicing prayer and justice by providing public prayer content with media that can be used by the elderly to perform spirituality. Third, it was suggested that in terms of Didache, it should be required that the elderly should be educated to be familiar with the changing technologies, that teaching environment should be extended from church to online, and that the educational content of tradition and new forms should be dealt with extensively. Fourth, from the perspective of Kerigma, Christian elderly people who have suffered in various life environments, both personally and socially, should listen to the words again and gain the power to overcome the corona crisis through the God's words, so that they can be melted into the curriculum of koinonia, leiturgia, didache, and diakonia. Fifth, it was suggested that senior citizens should switch their consciousness to become subjects of service, not objects of service, and that digital literacy education should be provided individually at eye level to narrow the digital gap for Diakonia curriculum.

  • At the start of the new century, South Africa probably had the largest number of HIV-infected people of any country in the world. The only nation that comes close is India with a population of one billion people compared to South Africa's figure of 57 million. The tragedy is that this did not have to happen. South Africa was aware of the dangers posed by AIDS as early as 1985. In 1991, the national survey of women attending antenatal clinics found that only 0.8percent were infected. In 1994, when the new government took power, the figure was still comparatively low at 7.6 %. The 2004 figure which has been published is 26.5%. This article tracks the epidemic globally, in the region and in South Africa. I explain some of the basic concepts around the disease and look at what may happen with respect to numbers. The situation is bad, and the number of people falling ill, dying and leaving families will rise over next few years. This will impact on South Africa in a number of important ways. This article assesses the demographic, economic and social consequences of the epidemic. It disposes of a number of myths and present the real facts. The AIDS in South Africa is not related to individuals only. It warns that AIDS in Africa is becoming a community and systemic problem. The acuteness of the problem does not stem merely from the fact that communities are affected, or could even be wipe out by the end of this decade, but from the fact that AIDS will place incredible burdens and obligations upon medical services, health care and religious communities such as churches. The facts confront churches' mission with the important question: who is going to take care of all the patients and where? The reality is that people dying of AIDS will have to be cared for at home by relatives and friends. A further question that arises is whether our people are prepared for this. AIDS was considered to be a homo-plague and the hunt was on for a scapegoat in the light of the fatal implication of the disease. At present we are in the strategic phase where we all realize that it will be of no avail to scare people with the ominous threat of AIDS AIDS destroys the optimism of our achievement ethics. This exposure of the culture of optimism is also an exposure of the so-called 'human basic fear which accuses Christianity that their concept of sin is a damper on man's search for liberation and basic need to be freed from all Imitation. AIDS is also a test for our ecclesiastical genuineness and the sincerity of our mission sensibility. It poses the question: How unconditional is Christian love? Is there room for the AIDS sufferer in the community of believers, despite the fact he is an acknowledged homosexual? The question to put to the church is whether the community of believers is an exclusive to put to the koinonia which excludes homosexuals. They may be welcome on principle, but in actual fact are not acceptable to the church community. As South Africa enters the new century, it is clear that the epidemic is not having a measurable impact. However, the impact of AIDS is gradual, subtle and incremental. The author's proposal of what is currently most needed in South Africa is that the little things will make a difference. It's about doing lots of little things better at grassroots level, with the emphasis on doing. There are so many community, churches and NGOs initiatives worth building on and intensifying. One must not underestimate the therapeutic value of working together in small groups to overcome a problem
