Herein, a new space-time block coding technique is proposed for a MIMO 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) system to minimize the bit error rate (BER) in Rayleigh fading channels with reduced decoding complexity using ZF and MMSE linear detection techniques. The main objective is to improve the service quality of wireless communication systems and optimize the number of antennas used in base stations and terminals. The idea is to exploit the correlation product technique between both information symbols to transmit per space-time block code and their own orthogonal Walsh-Hadamard sequences to ensure orthogonality between both symbol vectors and create a full-rate orthogonal STBC code. Using 16 quadrature amplitude modulation and the quasi-static Rayleigh channel model in the MATLAB environment, the simulation results show that the proposed space-time block code performs better than the Alamouti code in terms of BER performance in the 2 × 2 MIMO system for both cases of linear decoding ZF and MMSE.

Two new fermentation products were separated from cheonggukjang by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and tentatively identified as succinyl daidzin and succinyl genistin by HPLC-mass spectrometry (MS). Both succinyl daidzin and succinyl genistin were detected in all 4 commercially available and one laboratory prepared cheonggukjang and 1 commercially available natto. However, these compounds were not detected in commercially available 4 home-made and 4 factory-produced doenjang. Peak areas of succinyl genistin were about 1.95-2.45 times higher than those of succinyl daidzin in cheonggukjang, which may be due to the higher concentration of genistin derivatives than daidzin derivatives in soybeans. This is the first report on the succinyl derivatives as isoflavone metabolites from cheonggukjang and these 2 isoflavone derivatives could be characteristic indicators for cheonggukjang.

In this paper, we propose a new small swing domino logic that reduces the swing amplitude by using twist-connected PMOS and NMOS transistors. The output swing range of the proposed circuit is adjusted by the size of the twist-connected transistors and the load capacitance. The designed RCA with the proposed circuit technique shows reduction of the power consumption by 37% and PDP performance by 43% compared with the domino CMOS logic.

Analyzing functions with small values of the product of position and frequency uncertainties have many advantages in image processing and data compression. Until now, this values has been computed based on the uncertainty principle, but the computed frequency uncertainty is not practical the human visual filters which have on-zero peak response frequencies. A new metric for the frequency uncertainty is used to calculate a deviation about the frequency which has maximum response. The joint effective widths for various functions are derived. As the result of analysis, the joint uncertainty for many functions converges to 0.5 as the joint parameter increases. Furthermore. Gabor cosine function shows an excellent performance among the mentioned functions.

Fungal mycelium-based composite materials (FMBC) are a new biomaterial to replace the existing composite materials. To compete with lightweight, high-performance composite materials represented by fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP), various physical and chemical properties and functionality must be secured. Especially, the composite materials made by using mycelium of mushroom is called mushroom plastic. Currently, Ecovative, Grado Zero Espace and MycoWorks in USA and Europe are launching new products. Products utilizing FMBC can be launched in the market for construction materials, automobile interior materials and artificial leather substitutes. In spite of this high possibility, mass production using FMBC has not yet been reported. This review introduces the FMBC, a material that can replace existing plastics, inorganic building materials and animal skins in an environmentally and economically viable way, and looks at the possibility of future biomaterials by summarizing recent research contents.

This paper proposes a new bit-serial multiplier/divider architecture to reduce the hardware complexity significantly and to maintain the same number of cycles compared with existing architectures. Since the proposed bit-serial multiplier/divider architecture does not extend the number of bits in registers and an adde $r_tractor to calculate a partial product or a partial remainder, the hardware overhead can be greatly reduced. In addition, the proposed architecture can perform an additio $n_traction and a shift operation in parallel and the number of cycles for $\textit{N}$-bit multiplication and division for the proposed circuits is $\textit{N}$ and $\textit{N}$ + 2, repectively. Thus, the number of cycles for multiplication and division is the same compared with existing architectures. The SliM Image Processor employs the proposed multiplier/divider architecture and proves the performance of the proposed architecture.cture.

The pipe-cutting machine developed in this study is a portable device used to cut a steel pipe. The machine, which is attached to the steel pipe by magnetic force, is moving around the pip e using four wheels. It also works for straight cutting of a steel plate. For the higher precision and labor time reduction, the automation of a pipe-cutting process is needed. However, it is not easily achieved because of vibrations and the loss of track. It is also found that the problems of the automation arise from the coupling of the functional requirements for the pipe-cutting machine. So, it is very difficult io solve the problems by a conventional design method. To overcome the difficulties the new design process for the pipe-cutting machine is established by axiomatic approach in this paper. Based on the Independence Axiom design process, a new product is designed and manufactured. Finally, it is verified by experiments that the performance of the automatic pipe-cutting machine is improved

This research covers the development of new technique for composite injection molding of high stiffness Sabot. An analysis of polymer resin is performed by means of making test specimen mold and doing test with accordance of ASTM test guidelines. Structural analysis and simulation of injection molding process are carried out in order not only to estimate but also to predict the characteristics of molding stresses what both product and structure of mold may have. For structural analysis software, Moldflow and LS-dyna are used and universal test machine is utilized for evaluating performance of sabot. Cases of adopting this material to sabot are not announced yet in domestic academic world. In addition to that, materials for polymer-metal mixed injection molding are imported on the whole due to deficient level of domestic technology. Therefore, this new developed injection molding technique using PEI material can make it available to ensure the technology of making mold, injection and design. Finally, this technique may be applicable to another sabot having different radius of warheads from now on.
