본 연구의 목적은 통신사간에 무선인터넷으로 제공되는 휴대폰 MP3 사운드의 음질차이가 있는지, 있다면 어느 요소에서 발생하는지를 조사하는 것이었다. 선두 통신사나 휴대폰 제조사가 가지는 브랜드의 영향 요소를 배재하고, 음질의 차이가 생기는 요소들을 찾아내기 위한 일련의 실험이 계획되었다. 특정 장르, 제작자, PC용 MP3플레이어, 휴대폰 제조사 등 음질의 차이가 발생 할 수 있는 요소들을 테스트 하였다. 연구결과 휴대폰 무선 인터넷을 통해 이용하는 MP3 사운드는 통신사별로 음질 차이가 존재하는 것으로 파악되었다. 음질의 차이는 콘텐츠 및 휴대폰의 차이에서 발생하며, 동일휴대폰 모델의 경우에도 통신사 모델별로 음질의 차이가 발생하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 통신사별로 제공하는 PC용 MP3 플레이어도 음질의 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 음악 장르에 대한 음질의 차이는 일관되게 나타나지 않았다.

This paper proposes a method of a touch-based remote control and sensor information acquisition of a mobile robot using a smart phone. An application in a smart phone processes the acquired sensor information and conducts autonomous navigation. By touching the screen of the smart phone, a series of points obtained from designated curve traces are analyzed and provide control of a robot. This study develops a mobile application that acquires and handles data from a mobile robot and sends appropriate action commands through remote control using Bluetooth communication with a smart phone. The utility and performance of the proposed control scheme have been successfully verified through experimental tasks using an actual smart phone and a mobile robot.

The purposes of this study were to explain consumer attitude, expenses and satisfaction of mobile-phone Users. The data of this study used from Pollever.com. This study was satisfaction of mobile-phone users in Korea. The users were consumers of Samsung, LG, SK-Telecom and Pantack. The critical success factor was on the subside for mobile-phone in the growth of mobile service, which we can analyze in its positive effects. Fifty percent of consumers were unsatisfaction with local companies without Samsung. Now most of local mobile-companies will developed music-phone, high-tec camera-phone, hi-slim phone, and health-phone. But, the results of this study are as fallow: Most of consumer' main issues were design, weight, and brand power. It was in that it played the driving force to upgrade the local mobile-phone services into international level with the explosive growth in business by providing cheap phones.

The Korean mobile telecommunication service market is faced with a tremendous competitive period, in which the market is entering into the maturity stage with launching of the 3rd generation service and with introduction of mobile number portability. In general, it is more important to sustain the old customers than to attracting new customers, as the life cycle of an industry is entering the maturity stage in which the growth rate of new customers is decreasing gradually or becoming stagnant. Thus, mobile telecommunication business has to seek a way to maintain the existing customers instead of promoting new customers. So this study investigates whether the service quality of mobile telecommunication could have effects on the switching barrier of the industry. In order to test the hypothesis on the effects of service quality of mobile telecommunication in Korea on switching barrier, this study collected the questionnaire response data of students including middle and high school students and undergraduates, who are regarded as the major customers in that mobile telecommunication industry.

Recently, mobile wireless data traffic has been dramatically increased due to not only the popularization of digital convergence devices including smart phone, Net-book, and Tablet PC, but also the vitalization of wireless Internet related eco-systems such as AppStore. In addition, it is expected that a tremendous increase in mobile data is caused by the release of unlimited mobile data plans (flat-fee). In order to deal with such mobile data traffic explosion, it is necessary that network operators should make efforts to offload wireless data traffic. This paper reviews the condition of mobile wireless data traffic in domestic and international telecommunication industry and looks for various action plans to overcome the difficulty of network operators.

우리나라 가계의 통신비는 꾸준히 증가하여 왔다. 이에 따라 이동통신요금의 적정성에 대한 문제가 제기되고 있으나 실효성 있는 해결책은 제시되지 않고 있다. 우리나라의 이동전화보유율은 99%로 세계에서 가장 높고 요금은 상대적으로 비싸다. 이는 근본적으로 정부가 이동통신 3사체제를 유지해오면서 사실상 최저가격제를 용인하고 MVNO의 도입을 늦추었기 때문으로 풀이된다. 정부는 서비스생산비용이 타당하게 반영되는 요금구조로 유도할 수 있으며 시장지분확보만을 위한 마케팅비용을 일정한 범위로 제한할 수 있다. 또 과도하게 복잡한 요금제에 따른 거래비용을 억제함으로써 소비자의 소비선택권을 보장하고 요금부담을 줄일 수 있다. 이동통신요금의 적정화를 위해서는 MVNO의 활성화를 통한 이동통신시장구조의 개선, 마케팅 비용의 적정수준인정을 통한 요금의 인하가 필요하다. 바람직한 시장구조와 정책운용이 뒷받침된다면 이동통신요금은 30%정도의 하향조정은 가능할 것으로 보인다. 이동통신 요금은 데이터 사용량에 따른 종량제를 기본으로 하는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

In this paper we analyze whether we can use the mobile phone having been highly distributed into young generation as a device for the u-learning in Korean public education. For this purpose we deal with the technical maturity in three axes. Firstly, we examine the authoring nature of mobile internet-based contents such as both text and motion picture for the contents developers in the public education. As a research result the authoring of text has almost no difficulty, but that of the motion picture shows some problems. Secondly, we deal with whether u-learners can easily get and use u-contents on both mobile phone and PC respectively. After analysing this factor, we found that the downloading of motion picture contents into mobile phone is very limited. Therfore we talk about the usability and problem of various PC Sync tools and propose their standardization. Finally, the needs of the introduction of the ubiquitous SCORM which could enable to reuse u-contents among different Korean telco’s mobile phones are discussed. Here we describe some functionality of both ubiquitous SCORM and u-LMS. Our study looks like almost the first work examining the technological maturity for the introduction of u-learning with mobile phone in Korean public education and it could be used as a reference for the study of any other wireless telecommunication-based u-learning other than mobile telecommunication.

The Korean mobile telecommunication service market is faced with a tremendous competitive period, in which the market is entering into the maturity stage with launching of the 3rd generation service and with introduction of mobile number portability. In general, it is more important to sustain the old customers than to attracting new customers, as the life cycle of an industry is entering the maturity stage in which the growth rate of new customers is decreasing gradually or becoming stagnant. Until now, many researches had tested whether the customer satisfaction and loyalty were the core factors of sustaining customers or not. Also service quality and switching cost were given a remarkable attention for their possibility of exogenous factors, which could exercise effects to customer satisfaction and loyalty. In the same context, mobile telecommunication business has to seek a way to maintain the existing customers instead of promoting new customers. So this study investigates whether the service quality and switching barrier of mobile telecommunication could have effects on the customer satisfaction and loyalty, which are recognized as an efficient means to sustain the current customers. In order to test the hypothesis on the effects of service quality and switching barrier of mobile telecommunication to customer satisfaction and loyalty in Korean telecommunication industry, this study collected the questionnaire response data of students including middle and high school students and undergraduates, who are regarded as the major customers in that mobile telecommunication industry.

The purpose of this paper is to examine whether there are relationships of substitutability or complementarity between the call demand of fixed telecommunication and mobile telecommunication services. In order to clarify the relationships, we suggest a model of call demand of fixed telecommunication service which incorporates the variables representing the diffusion of mobile telecommunications subscription and estimate it with relevant time series data. Finally it is shown that there is complementary relationship between the call demand of fixed telecommunication and mobile paging services, and it is also found that there is substitutable relationship between the long distance call demand of fixed telecommunication and mobile phone services.

성숙기에 접어든 이동통신 시장은 소비자의 욕구가 다양해지는 반면에, 서비스 차별화가 어려워지고 있으며 번호이동성의 도입으로 인해 전환장벽이 완화되면서 사업자간 고객유지 및 확보를 위한 경쟁이 가속화되고 있다. 또한 HSDPA라는 신규 서비스의 도입으로 세대간 고객전환을 위한 치열한 마케팅 활동이 펼쳐지고 있다. 이러한 상황 속에서 이동통신 사업자에게 지속적 경쟁우위를 가져올 원천으로 브랜드 자산의 중요성이 더욱 대두되고 있다. 그런데 선행연구에서는 이동통신 브랜드 자산에 대한 연구가 제한적으로 수행되고 있으며 특히 CDMA 시장에서 형성된 고객자산이 HSDPA에 미치는 영향을 분석한 연구가 없었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 브랜드 이미지, 고객혜택, 가격, 품질, 마케팅 활동을 중심으로 이동통신 서비스의 브랜드 자산 결정요인을 분석하고 신규 서비스인 HSDPA 서비스 가입에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 그리고 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 이동통신 사업자의 브랜드 관리의 전략적 시사점을 제시하였다.
