Mixed raster content 모델 기반의 영상 부호화는 전경과 배경 레이어에 빈 영역인 don't care region (DCR)이 발생하게 되며, 이 영역에 대한 신호 채움 방식에 따라 전체적인 부호화 성능이 큰 영향을 받게 된다. DCR을 채우기 위한 대부분의 기존 기법들은 홀 주변 기존 영역의 특성을 효율적으로 이용하지 않아 신호 채움 후에도 기존 신호 영역에 존재하던 고주파 성분이 반영될 뿐 아니라, DCR 경계에서의 신호 불연속으로 인해 고주파 성분이 추가적으로 발생한다는 문제점을 갖고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 우선순위 기반의 적응적 영역 확장법을 이용한 새로운 DCR 채움 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 알고리즘은 분수령 알고리즘을 이용하여 DCR의 각 홀 픽셀에 대한 신호 특성을 판단한 후, 이를 토대로 영역 채움의 우선순위를 결정한다. 이 우선 순위를 기반으로 영역 확장을 수행함으로써 고주파 성분을 포함하고 있는 영역의 확장이 최소화되어 전체적인 부호화 효율이 향상될 수 있다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안 알고리즘이 비교 대상 알고리즘에 비해 효율적인 신호 채움으로 우수한 부호화 성능을 가짐을 보인다.

Almost all injection molds have multi-cavity runner system for mass production, which are designed with geometrically balanced runner system in order to accomplish filling balance between cavity to cavity during processing. However, even though geometrically balanced runner is used, filling imbalance have been observed. Filling imbalance could be decreased by modifying processing conditions such as injections rate, mold temperature, injection pressure, melt temperature that are related to shear, viscosity. In this study, a series of experiment was conducted to investigate filling imbalance variation when modifying runner layout and ploymer and to determine which processing condition influences as the primary cause of filling imbalance in geometrically balanced runner system. The filling imbalance was desreased up to result range of $3{\leq}DFI{\leq}8(%)$ by using a new runner system for balanced filling.

In this paper, we propose a signal propagation modeling technique for generating a positioning fingerprint DB based on Long Term Evolution (LTE) signals. When a DB is created based on the location-based signal information collected in an urban area, gaps in the DB due to uncollected areas occur. The spatial interpolation method for filling the gaps has limitations. In addition, the existing gap filling technique through signal propagation modeling does not reflect the signal attenuation characteristics according to directions occurring in urban areas by considering only the signal attenuation characteristics according to distance. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a Deep Neural Network (DNN)-based signal propagation functionalization technique that considers distance and direction together. To verify the performance of this technique, an experiment was conducted in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Based on the acquired signals, signal propagation characteristics were modeled for each method, and Root Mean Squared Errors (RMSE) was calculated using the verification data to perform comparative analysis. As a result, it was shown that the proposed technique is improved by about 4.284 dBm compared to the existing signal propagation model. Through this, it can be confirmed that the DNN-based signal propagation model proposed in this paper is excellent in performance, and it is expected that the positioning performance will be improved based on the fingerprint DB generated through it.

Energy harvesting is an increasingly attractive source of power for cellular networks, and can be a promising solution for green networks. In this paper, we consider a cellular network with power beacons powering multiple mobile terminals with microwave power transfer in energy beamforming. In this network, the power beacons are powered by grid and renewable energy jointly. We adopt a dual-level control architecture, in which controllers collect information for a core controller, and the core controller has a real-time global view of the network. By implementing the water filling optimized power allocation strategy, the core controller optimizes the energy allocation among mobile terminals within the same cluster. In the proposed green energy cooperation paradigm, power beacons dynamically share their renewable energy by locally injecting/drawing renewable energy into/from other power beacons via the core controller. Then, we propose a new water filling optimized green energy cooperation management strategy, which jointly exploits water filling optimized power allocation strategy and green energy cooperation in cellular networks. Finally, we validate our works by simulations and show that the proposed water filling optimized green energy cooperation management strategy can achieve about 10% gains of MT's average rate and about 20% reduction of on-grid energy consumption.

Wi-Fi Access Point (AP) optimization approaches are used in indoor positioning systems for signal coverage enhancement, as well as positioning precision improvement. Although the huge power consumption of the AP optimization forms a serious problem due to the signal coverage requirement for large-scale indoor environment, the conventional approaches treat the problem of power consumption independent from the design of indoor positioning systems. This paper proposes a new Fast Water-filling algorithm Group Power Constraint (FWA-GPC) based Wi-Fi AP optimization approach for indoor positioning in which the power consumed by the AP optimization is significantly considered. This paper has three contributions. First, it is not restricted to conventional concept of one AP for one candidate AP location, but considered spare APs once the active APs break off. Second, it utilizes the concept of water-filling model from adaptive channel power allocation to calculate the number of APs for each candidate AP location by maximizing the location fingerprint discrimination. Third, it uses a fast version, namely Fast Water-filling algorithm, to search for the optimal solution efficiently. The experimental results conducted in two typical indoor Wi-Fi environments prove that the proposed FWA-GPC performs better than the conventional AP optimization approaches.

최근 자기공명신호를 형성시키지 않는 보상물질을 이용하여 신호강도를 높이려는 연구가 활발히 진행되면서 검사부위에 보상물질을 직접 부착함에 따른 환자감염의 우려가 나타나고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 발상의 전환으로 보상물질을 코일에 간접 부착함으로써 기존의 직접 부착방식을 대체할 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법은 보상물질인 실리콘을 원통형 bar의 형태로 제작하여 8채널 head 코일의 element에 부착한 후, 실리콘 부착 전 후 water phantom의 신호강도를 측정하였다. 영상획득은 3.0T 초전도 자기공명영상장치와 8채널 head 코일을 이용하여 T1, T2강조영상을 획득하였으며, 획득한 영상은 영상측정프로그램을 이용하여 신호강도를 측정한 후, 대응표본T검정을 이용하여 유의한 차이가 있는지 판단하였다. 부착 전 후 신호강도는 T1 강조영상은 3.39%, T2 강조영상은 2.62% 유의하게 증가하였다. 결론적으로 간접 부착방식은 증가율이 낮아 모든 환자를 대상으로 대체하기에는 한계가 있을 수 있지만, filling factor의 증가로 인한 신호강도의 의미있는 상승이 있으므로 당뇨병 등 감염성 질한 우려 환자에 적용 시 유용하리라 판단된다.

대역 확장(Bandwidth Extension)이란 채널 용량 부족 혹은 이동통신 기기에 탑재된 코덱의 특성으로 인해 부호화 및 복호화 과정에서 대역 제한(band limited)되거나 손상된 협대역 신호(NB, Narrow Band)를 복원, 확장하여 광대역 신호(WB, Wide Band)로 전환 시켜주는 것을 의미한다. 대역 확장 연구는 주로 음성 신호 위주로 대역 복제(SBR, Spectral Band Replication), IGF(Intelligent Gap Filling)과 같이 고대역을 주파수 영역으로 변환하여 복잡한 특징 추출 과정을 거쳐 이를 바탕으로 사라지거나 손상된 고대역을 복원한다. 본 논문에서는 딥러닝 모델 중 오토인코더(Autoencoder)를 바탕으로 1차원 합성곱 신경망(CNN, Convolutional Neural Network)들의 잔차 연결을 활용하여 복잡한 사전 전처리 과정 없이 일정한 길이의 시간 영역 신호를 입력시켜 대역 확장 시킨 음향 신호를 출력하는 모델을 제안한다. 또한 음성 영역에 제한되지 않는 음악을 포함한 여러 종류의 음원을 포함하는 데이터셋에 훈련시켜도 손상된 고대역을 복원할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

New capacitance modeling and transient analysis for multi-layer interconnects with shielding effect are presented. The upper layer capacitances with under-layer shielding lines are represented by introducing a filling factor η which can be defined as the ratio of upper-layer line length to the total under-layer line width. The upper-layer effective self capacitances considering two extreme cases which the underlayer metals are assumed as a ground or as a Vdd are modeled. The signal transient analysis with shielding effect model is performed.

This study presents experimental results of sloshing phenomenon done on rectangular box. A simple harmonic excitation was done on the box. Two kinds of filling ratio, 20% and 30% of height, were tested. A total of 15 pressure sensors were installed to monitor the impact pressure. Each test was repeated for 20 times to ensure the repeatability. The high speed camera captured the flaw filed and the corresponding pressure were synchronize with video signal so that the video image can help the interpretation of the impact pressure. The two filling ratio made difference in the flaw characteristic and impact pressure. The use of high speed camera made it possible to understand the bubble generation mechanism. The pressure time histories were presented.
