If temperature management is required in factory or environmental monitoring, temperature can be measured by connecting various sensors wired or wirelessly. Surface acoustic wave sensors measure temperature using changes in acoustic waves on the sensor surface according to temperature, and are useful for wireless networks. In this paper, in order to build a wireless temperature measurement system in the 900 MHz frequency band, the temperature characteristics of the passive SAW sensor were measured, and the analysis and removal of multipath reflection wave effect inside the high temperature chamber were conducted. The resonant frequency of the SAW sensor was measured, and radio transmission/reception and multipath reflected wave removal techniques were proposed in the shielded chamber.

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a standardized transport layer protocol for maximizing the use of finite network resources by using multiple interfaces simultaneously. If the characteristics of each path are the same, there is an advantage in terms of stability and bandwidth utilization compared to the existing single TCP. However, if the path characteristics are different, the performance is lower than that of a single TCP. There are many complex reasons for this, but one of the biggest impacts is the bufferbloat, which dramatically increases the latency. In this paper, we implemented an algorithm that improved MPTCP performance degradation due to bufferbloat in Linux - based testbed and compared performance with existing MPTCP scheduler.

In very shallow water acoustic communication channel, underwater acoustic (UWA) communication signal is observed as frequency selective fading signal due to time-varying multipath. This induces a time and frequency dependent inter-symbol-interference (ISI) and degrades the UWA system performance. There is no study about how the performances of the error correction codes are related to a multipath fading statistics in very shallow water. In this study, the characteristics of very shallow water multipath fading channel is analyzed and the performances of two different forward error correction (FEC) codes are compared. The convolution code (CC) and Reed-Solomon (RS) code are adopted. Sea experimental results show that RS code is better choice than CC in frequency selective channel with fading.

Multipath ultrasonic flowmeters are increasingly being used for the purpose of accurate flow measurement. However, an installation standard has not yet been established for these flowmeters, and this can cause considerable confusion during field installation. There is a need for a minimum straight run to ensure the measurement accuracy of a flowmeter installed upstream and downstream of flow disturbance factors-expansion, contraction, and tee pipes. Experiments were performed by using multipath flowmeters that have less than ${\pm}0.5%$ accuracy-4-paths 1-unit and 2-paths 1-unit are of foreign make, whereas 5-paths 2-units are of domestic make-to determine the straight run under the above conditions. We carried out experiments repeatedly by considering a straight run, velocity, and suggested installation standards for a multipath ultrasonic flowmeter that satisfies the tolerance limits.

This paper deals with quantitative analysis about the characteristics of GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) signals contaminated with multipath signals and day-to-day repeatability of the navigation solution and SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) caused by multipath signals using the collected data from GPS receiver installed on KSLV-I which was on standby on the launch pad at Naro Space Center. Since the GPS antennas, surrounding environments and GPS satellite orbits were very slightly changed with respect to the day, the repeating pattern of the solution and SNR caused by the multipath signals was verified from the collected data. Analytic result of the multipath effects and day-to-day repeatability of the navigation solution and SNR observed at the launch pad would be used for obtaining more stable performance of the GPS receiver when the satellite launch vehicles are on standby.

Multipath TCP (MPTCP), which is a layer 4 protocol that can get the reliability and the efficiency of the transmission by using multipath transfer, was standardized by the IETF. MPTCP provides superior performance when compared to a single TCP when used in a homogeneous network with similar network characteristics. However, MPTCP degrades performance when used in heterogeneous networks with different network characteristics. In this paper, we propose 'Delay-alerted path-blocking scheduler'. It measures the delay of each path and blocks the path with a long delay to reduce the order of packets in the receive buffer. If the duplicated packet is sent to the blocked path to measure the delay and the congestion on the blocking path is reduced, the blocked path is unblocked. For performance analysis, the proposed scheduler was implemented in the Linux kernel and improved performance was obtained in the test bed. We also confirmed that the proposed scheduler reduces the degradation of MPTCP performance in real wireless networks with heterogeneous path characteristics.

Underwater communication is affected by reverberation and noise characteristics of the underwater channel and time delay takes place by multipath. Hence, Signal is distorted and a lot of error is generated in the transmitting/receiving by multipath effects, so a channel coding for error correction is required. We propose a channel coding algorithm which is possible to correct error of received signal. We compare and analyze BER(bit error rate) performance depending on the depth of each transmitter-receiver using channel coding algorithm. QPSK was used as a modulation method, and 1/2 code rate convolution coding was used as a coding rate. A convolution coding method shows increase of BER performances.

As of September 2002, there are more than 60 operational permanent Global Positioning System (GPS) stations in South Korea. Their data are being used for a variety of purposes: geodynamics, geodesy, real-time navigation, atmospheric science, and geography. Especially, many of the sites are reference stations for DGPS (Differential GPS). However, there has been no comprehensive and qualitative analysis published to evaluate the data quality. In this study, we present preliminary results of our assessment of the permanent GPS sites in South Korea. We have analyzed the multi-path characteristics of each station using a quality-checking software package called TEQC. Another multipath analysis tool based on post-fit phase residuals was used to check the repeating patterns and the amount of the multipath at each site. The long-term stability of each station was analyzed using the root-mean-square (RMS) error of the estimated site positions for one year, which enabled us to evaluate the mount stability. In addition, the number of cycle slips at each site was derived by TEQC. Based on these series of tests, we compared the stability and data quality of permanent GPS stations in South Korea.

The purpose of this study is to determine optimal transportation routes through the comparison of Korean - European transportation routes of automotive parts and to suggest information that can be utilized in Korea - Europe trade activities or trade route selection by establishing multipath. This study analyzed the direct transportation cost, inventory cost, and warehouse inventory cost of the sea and TSR / TCR railroad transport based on characteristics of automotive parts logistics and multimodal transportation. Also, this study identifies the most effective transportation route from the viewpoint of total logistics cost. In addition to the economic factors, we conducted an in-depth analysis through interviews with corporate executives to identify the importance of the factors with the behavioral factors, and the reliability was further secured through interviews. Through this study, it is possible to understand various aspects of international logistics by analyzing the factors of transportation choice in terms of economic and behavioral perspectives concurrently by differentiating from existing research.

In this paper, we represent the maximum detection probability formulas of symbol synchronization timing at each received delay signal in multipath channel delay profile in the multiplied correlation and difference type correlated symbol synchronization timing detection method. The computer simulation results show that the correlation symbol timing detection method have maximum detection probability at the lead of received delay signal of highest amplitude, but the difference type of correlation symbol timing detection method always have maximum detection probability at the lead of first received delay signal in the multipath channel models. Using this results, we show the BER characteristics difference between the IEEE802.11a OFDM signals which is obtained in case of the symbol synchronization timing is taken at zero error(perfect) timing position and at -1 sample error symbol timing position from perfect timing position in the multipath channel models regardless the length of channel delay spread.
