CANDU형 원자로의 노심해석을 위해 핵연료 격자 및 반응도 설비(reactivity devices)에 대한 2군 군정수가 필요하다. 특히 CANDU형 원자로의 노심해석에 있어서 반응도 설비나 구조물은 증분격자 상수(Incremental Cross Section)에 의해 묘사된다. 현재 CANDU형 원자로의 반응도 설비의 증분격자 상수를 계산하기 위해 MULTICELL 코드를 사용하여 계산하고 있다. 그러나 weak absorber에 대해 기존의 증분격자 상수를 이용하여 계산한 반응도가는 시운전(Phase-B)조건에서의 노물리 시험치보다 다소 과소평가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 증분격자 상수 계산 방법의 개선 방향을 모색하기 위해 SHETAN 및 MCNP 코드로 단일 격자에서의 반응도가를 계산하여 비교, 평가하였다. HCNP 계산의 결과는 조정봉(Adjuster rods)과 흡수봉/정지봉 (Mechanical Control Absorber/Shutoff rod)은 MULTICELL의 계산 결과보다 적으며, 경수영역 조절기(Liquid Zone Controller)는 크게 나타났다. 또한 SHETAN 코드를 이용한 결과는 MULTICELL의 결과보다 약간 크게 나타났다.

The CDMA system with time division duplex mode (CDMA/TDD system) is a highly attractive solution to support the next generation cellular mobile systems providing multimedia services where the traffic unbalance between downlink and uplink exists. In this paper, the capacity of the CDMA/TDD system is analyzed in general multicell environments. For this analysis, the interference for a time slot is analyzed, and a time slot and channel allocation problem is mathematically formulated and solved using simulated annealing technique. Computational experiments provide a promising result.

Grant-free random access (GFRA) can reduce the access delay and signaling cost, and satisfy the short transmission packet and strict delay constraints requirement in internet of things (IoT). IoT is a major trend in the future, which is characterized by the variety of applications and devices. However, most existing studies on GFRA only consider a single type of device and omit the effect of access delay. In this paper, we study GFRA in multicell massive multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) systems where different types of devices with various configurations and requirements co-exist. By introducing the backoff mechanism, each device is randomly activated according to the backoff parameter, and active devices randomly select an orthogonal pilot sequence from a predefined pilot pool. An analytical approximation of the average spectral efficiency for each type of device is derived. Based on it, we obtain the optimal backoff parameter for each type of devices under their delay constraints. It is found that the optimal backoff parameters are closely related to the device number and delay constraint. In general, devices that have larger quantity should have more backoff time before they are allowed to access. However, as the delay constraint become stricter, the required backoff time reduces gradually, and the device with larger quantity may have less backoff time than that with smaller quantity when its delay constraint is extremely strict. When the pilot length is short, the effect of delay constraints mentioned above works more obviously.

In this paper, an optimal power and rate allocation model is mathematically formulated on the forward link of multicell CDMA mobile systems. The model maximizes total utility considering data rates and fairness among cells under delay and PRER (Post RPL Error Rate) constraints. The two-level power and rate allocation scheme is suggested to solve the proposed model. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme provides a good solution in a fast time.

A method of analysis is proposed for curved multicell box girder grillages. The method can be used to analyze box girder grillages comprising straight and/or curved segments. Each segment can be modelled by a number of beam elements. Each element has three nodes and the nodal degrees of freedom (DOF) consist of the six DOF for a conventional beam plus DOF to account for torsional warping, distortion, distortional warping, and shear lag. This element is an extension of a straight element that was developed earlier. For a more realistic analysis of the intersection regions of non-colinear box girder segments, the concept of a rigid connector is introduced, and the compatibility requirements between adjoining elements in those regions are discussed. The results of the analysis showed good agreement with the shell finite element results, but the proposed method of analysis needs a fraction of the time and effort compared to the shell finite element analysis.

Multilevel converters have emerged like a new strategy for energy conversion from medium power to high power. The main characteristic of the topologies classified as multilevel, is the use of commutation devices connected in series, allowing the distribution of the voltage and reducing stress in the commutation switches. Stacked Multicell Converter (SMC), is classified as single-phase voltage source inverter(VSI). Due to the fact, the SMC generates a signal of alternating current of several levels of voltage of direct current. The following work will demonstrate the flexibility of the above mentioned topology using a low cost control circuit architecture.

In this paper, a beam ID preamble (BIDP) technique, where a beam ID is transmitted in the physical layer, is proposed for efficient beam training in millimeter-wave cellular communication systems. To facilitate beam ID detection in a multicell environment with multiple beams, a BIDP is designed such that a beam ID is mapped onto a Zadoff-Chu sequence in association with its cell ID. By analyzing the correlation property of the BIDP, it is shown that multiple beams can be transmitted simultaneously with the proposed technique with minimal interbeam interference in a multicell environment, where beams have different time delays due to propagation delay or multipath channel delay. Through simulation with a spatial channel model, it is shown that the best beam pairs can be found with a significantly reduced processing time of beam training in the proposed technique.

Simulations of Wolsong-1 Phase-B commissioning measurements have been performed, as part of the program to validate WIMS-AECL lattice cell calculations for application to CANDU reactor simulations in RFSP. A required component of these simulations is the calculation of incremental cross sections representing reactivity control devices in the reactor. The incremental cross section properties of the Wolsong-1 adjusters, Mechanical Control Absorbers (MCA) and liquid Zone Control Units (ZCU) are based on the WIMS-AECL/MULTICELL modelling methods and the results are compared with those of WIMS-AECL/DRAGON-2 modelling methods.

In this paper, we characterise the joint interference alignment and power allocation strategies for a K-user multicell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian interference channel. We consider a MIMO interference channel with a blind interference alignment through staggered antenna switching on the receiver. We explore the power allocation and the feasibility condition for cooperative cell-edge (CE) mobile users (MUs) by assuming that the channel state information is unknown. The new insight behind the transmission strategy of the proposed scheme is premeditated (randomly generated transmission strategy) and partial cooperative CE MUs, where the transmitter is equipped with a conventional antenna, the receiver is equipped with a reconfigurable multimode antenna (staggered antenna switching pattern), and the receiver switches between preset T modes. Our proposed scheme assists and aligns the desired and interference signals to cancel the common interference signals, since the received signal must have a corresponding independent signal subspace. The sum capacity for a K-user multicell MIMO Gaussian interference channel with reconfigurable multimode antennas is completely characterised.
