  • Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a material with a wide bandgap (3.26eV), a high critical electric field (~2.3MV/cm), a and a high bulk electron mobility (${\sim}900cm^2/Vs$). These electronic properties allow high breakdown voltage, high frequency, and high temperature operation compared to Silicon devices. Although various SiC DMOSFET structures have been reported so far for optimizing performances. the effect of channel dimension on the switching performance of SiC DMOSFETs has not been extensively examined. In this paper, we report the effect of the interface states ($Q_s$) on the transient characteristics of SiC DMOSFETs. The key design parameters for SiC DMOSFETs have been optimized and a physics-based two-dimensional (2-D) mixed device and circuit simulator by Silvaco Inc. has been used to understand the relationship with the switching characteristics. To investigate transient characteristic of the device, mixed-mode simulation has been performed, where the solution of the basic transport equations for the 2-D device structures is directly embedded into the solution procedure for the circuit equations. The result is a low-loss transient characteristic at low $Q_s$. Based on the simulation results, the DMOSFETs exhibit the turn-on time of 10ns at short channel and 9ns at without the interface charges. By reducing $SiO_2/SiC$ interface charge, power losses and switching time also decreases, primarily due to the lowered channel mobilities. As high density interface states can result in increased carrier trapping, or recombination centers or scattering sites. Therefore, the quality of $SiO_2/SiC$ interfaces is important for both static and transient properties of SiC MOSFET devices.

  • The network performance gets down during congestion periods to solve the problem effectively. A RED(Random Earl Detection) algorithm of the queue management algorithm is proposed and IETF recommends it as a queue management. A RED algorithm controls a congestion aspect dynamically. In analyzing parameters when static value of parameter is set in the gateway cannot be handled the status of current network traffic properly We propose the Effective RED algorithm to solve with the weakness of RED In this algorithm the maximum drop probability decides to accept or drop the interning packets, is adjusted dynamically on the current queue state for controlling the congestion phase effectively in the gateway. This algorithm is confirmed by computer simulation using the NS(Network Simulator)-2.

  • Electrical repair method which has replaced laser repair method can replace defective cell by redundancy’s in the redundancy scheme of conventional high density memory. This electrical repair circuit consists of the antifuse program/read/latch circuits, a clock generator a negative voltage generator a power-up pulse circuit a special address mux and etc. The measured program voltage of made antifuses was 7.2~7.5V and the resistance of programmed antifuses was below 500 Ω. The period of clock generator was about 30 ns. The output voltage of a negative voltage generator was about 4.3 V and the current capacity was maximum 825 $mutextrm{A}$. An antifuse was programmed using by the electric potential difference between supply-voltage (3.3 V) and output voltage generator. The output pulse width of a power-up pulse circuit was 30 ns ~ 1$mutextrm{s}$ with the variation of power-up time. The programmed antifuse resistance required below 44 ㏀ from the simulation of antifuse program/read/latch circuit. Therefore the electrical repair circuit behaved safely and the yield of high densitymemory will be increased by using the circuit.

  • In this study, we applied the Radar-AWS Rainrates (RAR), weather radar-based quantitative precipitation estimations (QPEs), to the Yongdam study watershed in order to perform the flood runoff simulation and calculate the inflow of the dam during flood events using hydrologic model. Since the Yongdam study watershed is a representative area of the mountainous terrain in South Korea and has a relatively large number of monitoring stations (water level/flow) and data compared to other dam watershed, an accurate analysis of the time and space variability of radar rainfall in the mountainous dam watershed can be examined in the flood modeling. HEC-HMS, which is a relatively simple model for adopting spatially distributed rainfall, was applied to the hydrological simulations using HEC-GeoHMS and ModClark method with a total of eight independent flood events that occurred during the last five years (2014 to 2018). In addition, two NCL and Python script programs are developed to process the radar-based precipitation data for the use of hydrological modeling. The results demonstrate that the RAR QPEs shows rather underestimate trends in larger values for validation against gauged observations (R2 0.86), but is an adequate input to apply flood runoff simulation efficiently for a dam watershed, showing relatively good model performance (ENS 0.86, R2 0.87, and PBIAS 7.49%) with less requirements for the calibration of transform and routing parameters than the spatially averaged model simulations in HEC-HMS.

  • PYP consists of a water-soluble apoprotein and 4-hydroxycinnamyl chromophore bound to Cys69 via thiolester linkage, Upon absorption of a photon, the photocycle is initiated, leading to formation of several photo-intermediates. Among them, M intermediate is important to understand the signal transduction mechanism of PYP, because it is a putative signaling state. As well known, the dynamics of a protein is closely correlated with the occurrence of its function. Here we report the results of IO ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulation for the M intermediate in aqueous solution and discuss the characteristic feature of this state from a viewpoint of structural fluctuation.

  • In this paper, we propose strategies that eliminating packet loss and minimize delay time during handoff under wireless LAN environments. As a mobile host moves between cells, a handoff takes place. A few handoff protocol have been proposed to eliminate the packet loss, but they have a heavy overhead. So, We proposed handoff protocol using the next-cell prediction scheme that send not to current BS but to mobile host and next BS, therefore next BS buffered packet send mobile host after handoff. We also present simulation results for our simulation using the Network Simulator (ns2). The simulations show that our handoff scheme is no packet loss.

  • The multicast routing architectures have become indispensable due to the increasing needs for extreme communication services anywhere and anytime. The most recent approaches are called hierarchical and fully distributed, what have been proposed by O. Said et al. in a previous work. These proposed architectures were introduced to enhance the service-centric approach. In this paper, NS2 is used to build a simulation environment to test the hierarchical and the fully distributed multicast architectures as regards the service-centric one. The results of simulation show that the performance of the hierarchical and the fully distributed architectures outperforms the service-centric architecture. Furthermore, the fully distributed architecture is found to have the best performance.

  • A Mobile Ad hoc NETwork(MANET) is a system of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically self-organize in arbitrary and temporary network topologies. In the highly dynamic environment of MANET, energy efficiency is an important performance measure since it directly affects the network lifetime. The failure of energy severely impacts a communications system in crucial communications environments, such as disasters salvage. In this study, we propose a new packet switching routing that can increase the durability of the energy resource and therefore, the lifetime of the mobile nodes and MANET. The performance of the packet switching routing on the node-disjoint multipath and that of AODV are compared by NS2 simulation. The simulation results indicate that this new switching routing can extend the lifetime of a MANET.

  • This paper estimated the arrival angle and electric wave delay time using the space method law and the directions of arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm in case of signal correlation. Space method law is the method used to repress cross correlation before applying the weight value to the receiving signal. The values of the diagonal elements in the correlation matrix were averaged to replace as the diagonal elements value. In the area of wireless communication or mobile communication, there are high correlations in case of low delay time difference in multiple waves. This causes the quality of the communication to drop due to interference with the desired signal elements. This paper estimated the arrival angle and electric wave delay time using the space method law and the MUSIC algorithm. With the arrival angle algorithm, the arrival angle cannot be estimated below 5 in case of signal correlations because the angle resolution capacity decreases accordingly. The super resolution capacity was estimated to determine the arrival angle below 5 in this paper. In addition, the proposed algorithm estimated the short delay time difference to be below 20ns.

  • We simulated the magnetization reversal behavior of submicron-thickness magnetic films by applying pulses of sub-ns-long durations and amplitudes along the easy axis. The films were rectangular and elliptical $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$, and their thickness was 2 nm and 4 nm. We observed different behaviors depending upon the shape and thickness of the films and found a normal non-switching in regions in which we expected complete switching after relaxation. In the elliptical film, the non-switching regions were found to be random and to be widely distributed throughout the switching map. The strong demagnetization field along the z-axis, the film thickness direction, is likely responsible for this abnormal behavior. In the rectangular film, the abnormal non-switching regions were less distributed than they were in the elliptical film due to edge domains resulting from the small $M_z$ or demagnetization field during the switching. Our simulation confirms that large demagnetization is detrimental to the ultra-fast magnetization reversal of magnetic ultra-thin films.
