Many methods have been developed to overcome the PAPR(peak-to-average power ratio) problem. Selective mapping(SLM), partial transmit sequence(PTS), subblock phase weighting(SPW) and gradient descent(GD) are used widely to reduce the PAPR. In this paper, we present an effective PAPR reduction method that decreases the number of calculations through Radix-2 DIF IFFT procedure and GD method that transmits selected data sequence. The data sequence is constructed by choosing elements that satisfy threshold value as one part of the sequence and the rest elements of each sequence are chosen to have the lower papr operating, which yields performance improvement.

The aim of the study was the application of Radix Aconiti(附子) in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患). We inquired into the prescriptions with Radix Aconiti (附子) in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患) in many other aspects through 'Sanghanron'(傷寒論). The results were obtained as follows; The prescriptions with Radix Aconiti(附子) form about 18%, it's related text forms about 11%. Radix Aconiti(附子) was used with other 20 kinds of herbs in 7 categories-hyepyo(解表), jesp(除濕), selyul(泄熱), hwagihyengsu(化氣行水), onjungsanhan(溫中散寒), ikum(益陰), anhejitong(安蛔止痛). Among these herbs, the combination with Zingiver officinale Roscoe(乾薑) is focal usage, because the combination was used in 8 prescriptions out of 20. A fresh Radix Aconiti(附子) which was used with Zingiver officinale Roscoe(乾薑) is efficacious against poison of Radix Aconiti(附子). When this combination was used, it had been boiled for a long time in most cases, it is also helpful of counteracting poison. A Steamed Radix Aconiti(附子) was used with Zingiver officinale Roscoe (生薑). In the special feature of dosage of Radix Aconiti(附子), it was considerately used in many different conditions which includes strength or weakness of patients, and the critical or slight condition of illness. In the taking frequency and dosage of the medicine, it was applied the same. There are 2 methods of boiling, one is boiling separately from other herbs and the other is boiling all together. When boiling seperately, it works more quikly and strongly. In the case of severe 'rehan'(裏寒) which refuses warmed medicine, it was used with 2 other herbs(猪膽汁, 人尿) that take down from yang(陽) to ying(陰). The foci of prescriptions that contain Radix Aconiti(附子) is the type of Sayektang(四逆湯類), because Gungangbujatang(乾薑附子湯) does the important work in the prescriptions. The paradigm of Radix Aconiti(附子) treated palpitation, edema, diziness, confusion, numbness, iced limbs in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患). In the usage of Radix Aconiti(附子), the above results need to be referred and further clinical studies will be necessary.

Radix Asteris has been used in Korea for many centuries as a treatment for respiratory disease. The effect of Radix Asteris on tracheal smooth muscle is not known. The purpose of the present study is to determine the effect of Radix Asteris on histamine induced tracheal smooth muscle contraction in rats and guinea pigs. Guinea pig(500g, male) and Sprague Dawley rats (250g, male) were killed by $CO_2$ exposure and a segment (8-10mm) of the thoracic trachea from each rat and guinea pig was cut into equal segments and mounted 'in pairs' in a tissue bath. Contractile force was measured with force displacement transducers under 0.5g loading tension. The dose of histamine (His) which evoked 50% of maximal response ($ED_{50}$) was obtained from cumulative dose response curves for histamine $(10^{-7}{\sim}10^{-4}M)$. Contractions evoked by His ($ED_{50}$) were inhibited significantly by Radix Asteris. In guinea pig tracheal smooth muscle, the mean percent inhibition of histamine induced contraction was 120.5% (p<0.01) after $100{\mu}l/ml$ Radix Asteris. In rat tracheal smooth muscle, the mean percent inhibition of histamine induced contraction was 135.4% (p<0.01) after $100{\mu}l/ml$ Radix Asteris. Propranolol $(10^{-7}M)$ slightly but significantly attenuated the inhibitory effects of Radix Asteris. Following treatment with propranolol, the mean percent inhibition caused by $100{\mu}l/ml$ Radix Asteris fell to 44.6% in guinea pig induced by histamine contraction and by $100{\mu}l/ml$ Radix Asteris fell to 18.7% (p<0.05) in rat induced by histamine contraction. Indomethacin and methylene blue$(10^{-7}M)$ did not significantly alter the inhibitory effect of Radix Asteris. These results indicate that Radix Asteris can relax histamine induced contraction of guinea pig and rat tracheal smooth muscle, and that this inhibition involves sympathetic effects.

This paper describes a design of variable-length FFT/IFFT processor (VL_FCore) for OFDM-based multi-standard communication systems. The VL_FCore adopts in-place single-memory architecture, and uses a hybrid structure of radix-4 and radix-2 DIF algorithms to accommodate various FFT lengths in the range of $N=64{\times}2^k\;(0{\leq}k{\leq}7)$. To achieve both memory size reduction and the improved SQNR, a two-step conditional scaling technique is devised, which conditionally scales the intermediate results of each computational stage. The performance analysis results show that the average SQNR's of 64~8,192-point FFT's are over 60-dB. The VL_FCore synthesized with a $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library has 23,000 gates and 32 Kbytes memory, and it can operate with 75-MHz@3.3-V clock. The 64-point and 8,192-point FFT's can be computed in $2.25-{\mu}s$ and $762.7-{\mu}s$, respectively, thus it satisfies the specifications of various OFDM-based systems.

In order to evaluate estrogenic compounds in natural products, an in vitro detection system was established. For this system, the human breast cancer cell line MCF7 was stably trans-fected using an estrogen responsive chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter plas-mid yielding MCF7/pDsCAT-ERE119-Ad2MLP cells. To test the estrogenic responsiveness of this in vitro assay system, MCF7/pDsCAT-ERE119-Ad2MLP cells were treated with various concentrations of 17f3-estradiol. Treatments of 10$^{-8}$ to 10$^{-12}$ M 17$\beta$-estradiol revealed significant concentration dependent estrogenic activities compared with ethanol. We used in vitro assay system to detect estrogenic effects in Puerariae radix and Ginseng radix Rubra extracts. Treat-ment of 500 and 50 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of Puerariae radix extracts increased the transcriptional activity approximately 4- and 1.5-fold, respectively, compared with the ethanol treatment. Treatment of 500, 50, and 5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of Ginseng radix Rubra extracts increased the transcriptional activity approximately 3.2-,2.7, and 1.4-fold, respectively, compared with the ethanol treatment. These observations suggest that Puerariae radix and Ginseng radix Rubra extracts have effective estrogenic actions and that they could be developed as estrogenic supplements.

Contents of compounds in Rehmanniae Radix change depending on the number of steaming and drying and the drying method. In this study, as an impregnation method for dried Rehmanniae Radix, takju impregnation and cheongju impregnation were carried out and steaming and drying were repeated for 9 times. The changes of 5-HMF and catalpol contents were analyzed according to the number of repetition times to investigate which stage of steaming and drying is preferable. Also, total nitrogen, crude fat, ash, and crude fiber were measured to analyze changes in general components. 5-HMF was not detected in dried Rehmanniae Radix. As a result of repetitive steaming and drying, the content of 5-HMF increased only slightly from 1 to 4-times steaming and drying but increased significantly from 5-times. The catalpol in dried Rehmanniae Radix was not detected after 5 times of steaming and drying. Sucrose, maltose, and glucose were included in dried Rehmanniae Radix before steaming and drying. However, after the process in both Takju impregnation and Cheongju impregnation, galactose and fructose tended to decrease after production and sucrose and glucose tended to decrease after the increase. In this study condition, 6-times and more steaming and drying were appropriate process which met the content criteria (not less than 0.1%) of the Korean Pharmacopoeia (8th edition) for 5-HMF, an index component for quality control of Rehmanniae Radix Preparata.
