Recently, the LED(Light Emitting Diode) replacing incandescent light bulbs and fluorescent light has great attentions as a most promising candidate for the next generation lighting source due to its environment-friendly characteristics, long life and excellent efficiency. Moreover, since it is a semiconductor device which can convert the electric energy to visible light at a very high speed, it can also used as a communication device. Therefore, the VLC(Visible Light Communication) using the LED can perform the near field communication and lighting function at the same time without additional expenses. However, since the switching device of the conventional LED driver for VLC is operated in the linear region, there exist several drawbacks such as a poor power conversion efficiency and serious heat generation. On the other hand, since the proposed driver is operated in the on/off switching region, it features a higher efficiency and more improved heat generation. To verify the validity of the proposed LED driver, experimental results from a prototype of 20W rated LED driver applied to 3MHz bps broadcasting audio system are given.

Current sensors that use a Hall element and Hall IC to measure the magnetic fields generated in steel silicon core gaps do not distinguish between direct and alternating currents. Thus, they are primarily used to measure direct current (DC) in industrial equipment. Although such sensors can measure the DC when installed in expensive equipment, ascertaining problems becomes difficult if the equipment is set up in an unexposed space. The control box is only opened during scheduled maintenance or when anomalies occur. Therefore, in this paper, a method is proposed for facilitating the safety management and maintenance of equipment when necessary, instead of waiting for anomalies or scheduled maintenance. A Bluetooth 4.0 low-energy current-sensor system based on near-field communication is used, which compensates for the nonlinearity of the current-sensor output signal using a piecewise linear model. The sensor is controlled using its generic attribute profile. Sensor nodes and cell phones used to check the signals obtained from the sensor at 50-A input currents showed an accuracy of ±1%, exhibiting linearity in all communications within the range of 0 to 50 A, with a stable output voltage for each communication segment.

This paper has been studied for a comparison of the propagation and noise characteristics between ultrasonic and electromagnetic wave for the high speed communication of the short range telemetry. We analyze the propagation depth of electromagnetic and ultrasonic wave by skin depth effect and by ultrasonic loss ratio. We also studied several effects such as near field effect in electromagnetic wave and Rayleigh scattering noise of ultrasonic wave, etc. We show the experimental results of their propagation loss and modulation experiments in water. The experimental results show that both method is good for the implementation of short range telemetry.

In this paper, we analyze the radio propagation path loss characteristics for the vertical electric dipole radiation over the perfect electric conductor(PEC) ground plane. Most research have been performed about the electromagnetic analysis of vertical electric dipole in free space for time domain or frequency domain. But this paper present the radio propagation path loss over PEC ground plane in time domain under the assumption of the vertical electric dipole as a base station. From the simulated results, the ground plane effect can change the location of near field from transmitting antenna and the transient responses at mobile are calculated. The results of this paper can be applied to surface radar or signal processing applications.

This study is to find the effectiveness of advertising acceptance through NFC advertising and mobile in a cinema environment. The results are as follows. First, personification and participation among interacitivity factors had a positive impact on advertising acceptance. Second, advertising value of NFC advertising had a partially positive impact. Perceived usefulness and ease of use, perceived entertainment, and innovation alos had a positive impact on advertising acceptance. Finally, interactivity, followed by advertising value, had impact on the acceptance of NFC advertising.

This paper describes the information transmission method using communication networks between Remote Terminal Unit(RTU) and Protection and Control system(PCU) of the direct current switchgear for Light Railway Vehicle, and also represents the test result, which carried out in the laboratory. In this test, transmission signal waveform, polling time, response time and request/response frame were measured between RTU and PCU. The field test including the measurements of analog signal and status of the digital logic operation of PCU will be conducted in near future.

Since the existing analog village broadcasting system has some technical problems in applying and degradations in performance due to its old equipments, it had been required to be changed to a digital system and to develop the standardization from now. Therefore, we have analyzed the service coverage in various environments in order to construct an effective digital wireless village broadcasting system. Also, a precise prediction of field strength should be set up in various propagation environments to design a digital radio stations with reliable transmit power. Using these results the received power and the propagation characteristics in various environments can be predicted to establish a standard and the testing service will be deployed in the near future.

Mating confusion of the Striped Rice Borer with its synthetic sex pheromone, a mixture of (Z)-11-hexadecenal and (Z)-13-octadecenal in a ratio of 4.5 : 1, was estimated during the first and second generation in rice field near Suweon. The mixture was highly disruptive to pheromonal communication between males and females. The orientation behavior of male moths toward the females was confused at a dosage of 29.3g per 30a during the first generation and even at 33rr.g per $20m^3$ during the second generation.

Inverse problem is very interest in the sciences and engineering, in particular for modeling and monitoring applications. By applying inverse problem, it can be widely used to exploration of mineral resources, identification of underground cables and buried pipelines, and diagnostic imaging in medical area. In this paper, we firstly consider 2-dimensional EM scattering problem and present the FDTD method to estimate unknown source. In this case, non-linear CGM technique is used to investigate unknown sources corresponding to measured data obtained from forward problem in near field. The proposed technique for solving the inverse source problem presents a reasonable agreement and can be applied to investigate an internal source signal of embedded security module.

In this paper, we developed a hybrid simulation model of carbon laser ablation under the Ar plasmas consisted of fluid and particle methods. Three kinds of carbon particles, which are carbon atom, ion and electron emitted by laser ablation, are considered in the computation. In the present modeling, we adopt capacitively coupled plasma with ring electrode inserted in the space between the substrate and the target, graphite. This system may take an advantage of ${\mu}m$-sized droplets from the sheath electric field near the substrate. As a result, in Ar plasmas, carbon ion motions were suppressed by a strong electric field and were captured in Ar plasmas. Therefore, a low number density of carbon ions were deposited upon substrate. In addition, the plume motions in Ar gas atmosphere was also discussed.
