  • The mechanism design of the interactive emotional robot has been carried out. The two-wheeled inverted pendulum type mechanism was adopted to improve the mobility and make the innate clumsy monoaxial bicycle motion. Even though the system is unstable in itself, it is expected for the robot to move freely in a plane, keeping the upright position only with two wheels. Two motors attached on head can make 4 motion sets, and two motors on the wheels can make 8. Therefore, 32 independent motion sets can be achieved from the robot to communicate the emotions with humans. The motion's equation of the robot was derived based on nonholonomic dynamics, and the necessary power to the wheel's rotational axis was found by simulation.

  • When the load in a multi-cell orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) system is allowed to excessively increase in face of frequent handover, the cell area becomes smaller than the designed size, and thus continuity of quality of service (QoS) for handover requests cannot be guaranteed. To efficiently support the mobility of a mobile terminal (MT), we should adaptively cope with the resource demand of handover calls. This paper proposes a twofold resource-reservation scheme for OFDMA systems to guarantee continuity of QoS for various mobile multimedia services during MT handover from lightly to heavily loaded cells. Our twofold scheme attempts to guarantee service continuity for handover and to maximize resource allocation efficiency. We performed a simulation to evaluate our scheme in terms of outage probability, handover failure rate, total throughput, and blocking rate.

  • The applicability of graphene has been demonstrated in the electronic fields. But, high performance of graphene is limited by the contact resistance (Rc) at the metal-graphene interface. Recently, Rc was found to be improved by forming edge-contacted graphene via theoretical simulation. Based on the differences between the surface and edge contacts at the M-G interface, we demonstrate "edge-contacted" graphene through the use of a controlled plasma processing technique that generates the edge structure of the bond and significantly reduces the contact resistance. The contact resistance attained by using pre-plasma processing was of $270{\Omega}{\cdot}{\mu}m$. Mechanisms of pre-plasma process leading to low Rc was revealed by SEM and Raman spectroscopy. In the end, controlled pre-plasma processing enabled to fabricate CVD-graphene field effect transistors with an enhanced adhesion and improved carrier mobility.

  • In this paper the reverse link of the GLOBALSTAR-the representative CDMA LEO satellite system and LEO mobile satellite channel are developed by the SPW software simulation tool. And the performance of the system is evaluated. GLOBALSTAR is designed to give cellular-type service to hand-held user terminals through a constellation of 48 LEO satellites in circular orbites with 1414 Km altitude. Since LEO mobile satellite system communicates with mobile unit, it is suffered from severe multipath fading and shadowing. The fast mobility of LEO satellites makes the channel condition time vering. So, the LEO mobile satellite channel is different from land mobile channels. In this unique LEO satellite channel, it is shown that the performance of the GLOBALSTAR reverse link is varied according to the elevational angle, but this variation is overcome by satellite path diversity.

  • The Korean traffic systems for transportation vulnerable are still under development and their social life are limited even if the traffic environment systems are developed consistently. To secure his/her mobility right, it has been required to set up the particular system for the traffic welfare, for example the express and intercity bus operations for wheelchair users. The express and intercity bus development for wheelchair users based on the original bus model has been performed. This study has investigated the safety tolerance for the bus stiffness, rollover and side impact characteristics to ensure occupant safety using the finite element models. The wheelchair bus model showed the improved crashworthiness according to the partially reinforced structure and better safety tolerance for the wheelchair users.

  • Molecular dynamic simulations were performed to examine the wetting behavior of a graphite surface textured with nanoscale pillars. The contact angle of a water droplet on parallelepiped or dome-shaped pillars was investigated by systematically varying the height and width of the pillar and the spacing between pillars. An optimal inter-pillar spacing that gives the highest contact angle was found. The droplet on the dome-covered surface was determined to be more mobile than that on the surface covered with parallelepiped pillars.

  • For the application of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) p-i-n structural diode as the alpha particle spectroscopy, the induced charge collection was simulated based on a relevant non-uniform charge generation model. The simulation was accomplished for two extreme cases of the incident direction of alpha particle, p-and n-side, respectively. As expected, for the complete charge collection, the hole collection should be severely considered due to its poor mobility and the full depletion bias required. For the comparison of signal corresponding to the detector configuration or structure, although n-i-p configuration shows a wider range of linearity to the energy, p-i-n configuration is more suitable in the viewpoint of linearity and signal value for the considering energy range.

  • 애드 혹 네트워크에서 이동 모델은 가장 중요한 요인 중 하나이다. 또한 실험의 어려움 때문에 시뮬레이션을 통한 성능 명가가 애드 혹 네트워크에서는 꼭 필요하다. 하지만 현재 존재하는 애드 혹 네트워크 시뮬레이션에서는 3 차원 이동 환경이 전혀 고려되지 않은 이동 모델을 사용하고 있다. 즉 현재의 시뮬레이션 이동 모델은 3차원에서 이동 하는 실제의 이동 형태를 정확하게 반영 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 장애물 까지 포함하는 좀더 현실적인 3차원 이동 모델을 제시하고, 그것의 시뮬레이션 방법을 제시 한다. 3DMG를 통해 3차원 이동 정보와 장애물 정보를 만들고, 그러한 정보를 Glomosim 시뮬레이션 툴에 입력하여, 3차원 이동 모델에 따른 시뮬레이션이 가능하게 만들었다. 또한 본 논문에서는 이러한 방법에 의한 예제 시뮬레이션을 보여주며, 이를 통해 3차원 이동 모델의 효과를 보여준다.

  • This paper presents a new robot motion planning method for moving obstacle avoidance. To consider the mobility of a moving obstacle, we define virtual distance function(VDF) between the robot and the obstacle. At each sampling time, we use the VDF to construct an artificial potential, considering the motion of obstacles. The robot moves according to the repulsive and attractive force vector induced by the artificial potential function. The proposed algorithm can be driven the robot to avoid moving obstacles in real time. Some simulation studies show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
