본 논문에서는 무선 애드혹 네트워크에서 복수개 채널을 이용한 효율적인 매체접속제어 프로토콜로써 DM-MMAC (Doze Mode Multi-Chanel MAC)을 제안한다. 기존의 IEEE 802.11 프로토콜의 경우 물리계층에서 복수개의 가용 채널이 주어지나 MAC 계층에서는 오직 고정된 단일채널을 통한 접속만이 가능하다. 이를 보완하기 위한 프로토콜로써 여러 가지 멀티채널 MAC 프로토콜이 제안되었으나 대부분의 경우 채널수가 적고 호스트의 수가 많아지면 전송 처리율(throughput)이 급격히 저하되는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 MMAC 프로토콜의 채널 할당 및 채널점유 과정을 단순화하고 호스트 간 충돌가능성을 줄임으로써 절전효과와 함께 전송률 향상을 도모하였다.

제어 목적으로 주로 사용되는 기존의 60bps 급 저속 전력선 통신 모뎀에 적용된 대표적인 통신 방식은 단일 캐리어 방식이다. 단일 캐리어 방식은 전력선 통신 채널 환경에 매우 민감하다. 특히 채널의 notch 필터 특성에 따른 송신 신호의 극심한 감쇄는 통신 에러의 주 원인이 된다. 국내 전력선 채널 환경은 이러한 특징이 매우 강하다. 본 논문에서는 notch 특성 및 잡음 특성에 강한 Chirp 신호 방식을 이용한 저속 전력선 통신 시스템을 구현하였다. 본 연구에서는 1 비트에 대해 1ms 내에 100${\mu}s$의 1 Unit 심볼 Chirp 신호 10개를 전소하는 방식을 제안하였다. 또한 오류 정정을 위한 Convolution 부호와 충돌 감지 및 에러 검출을 위한 맨체스터 부호를 적용하였으며, 수신부에서 신호 검출을 위해 비트 상관기를 이용한 방식을 사용하였다. 60bps급 저속 전력선 통신 시스템을 구현하여 실험한 결과 Chirp 방식의 통신 방식이 단일 캐리어 방식에 비해 뛰어난 성능을 가짐을 확인하였다.

SNR (signal to ratio) is a criterion for providing objective information for evaluating the performance of a magnetic resonance imaging device, and is an important measurement standard for evaluating the quality of MR (Magnetic Resonance) image. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the correct SNR measurement for multi-channel coil and parallel imaging. As a result of research, we found that both T1 and T2 weighted images show the narrowest confidence interval of the method recommended by NEMA (The National Electrical manufacturers Association) 1 having a single measurement method, whereas the ACR (American College of Radiology) measurement method using a multi-channel coil and a parallel imaging technique shows the widest confidence interval. There is a significance in that we quantitatively verified the inaccurate problems of a signal to noise ratio using a ACR measurement method when using a multi-channel coil and a parallel imaging technique of which method does not satisfy the preconditions that researchers could overlook.

A novel wet release process ($\mu$ CARP - Micro Channel Assisted Release Process) for releasing an extreme large-area plate structure without etching hole is proposed and experimented. Etching holes in conventional process reduce a effective area and degrade an optical characteristics by a diffraction. In addition, as the area of a released structure increases, the stietion becomes more serious. The proposed process resolves these problems by the introduction of a micro fluidic channel beneath the structure which will be released. In this paper, a 5 mm${\times}$5mm-single crystal silicon plate structure was released by the proposed $\mu$CARP without etch holes on the structure. The variation in etching time with respect to the of the introduced micro channel is also examined. This process is expected to be beneficial for the actuator of a nano-scale data storage and the scanning mirror.

Nucleate pool boiling experiments with constant heat flux condition were performed using pure R113 for various channel heights under saturated pool condition. A circular heater of 1mm diameter, with artificial cavity in the center, fabricated using MEMS technique and the high-speed controller were used to maintain the constant heat flux. Images of bubble growth were taken at 5,000 frames per second using a high-speed CCD camera. The bubble geometry was obtained from the captured bubble images. The effects of channel height on the bubble growth behaviors were analyzed as dimensional scales for the initial and thermal growth regions. The parameters for the bubble growth behaviors were bubble radius, bubble growth rate, and bubble shapes. These phenomena require further analysis for various surface angles, but this study will provide good experimental data with constant heat flux boundary condition for such works.

A novel ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver structure is presented to be used in wireless body area networks (WBANs). In the proposed structure, a data channel and a control channel are combined into a single transmission signal. In the signal, a modulation method mixing pulse position modulation and pulse amplitude modulation is proposed. A mathematical framework calculating the power spectrum density of the proposed pulse-based signal evaluates its coexistence with conventional radio systems. The transceiver structure is discussed, and the receiving performance is investigated in the additive white Gaussian noise channel. It is demonstrated that the proposed scheme is easier to match to the UWB emission mask than conventional UWB systems. The proposed scheme achieves the data rate requirement of WBAN; the logical control channel achieves better receiving performance than the logical data channel, which is useful for controlling and maintaining networks. The proposed scheme is also easy to implement.

Shear connectors are key elements that ensure integrity in a composite system. The primary purpose of a shear connector is to bring a high degree of interaction between composite elements. A wide variety of connectors are available for hot-rolled composite construction, connected to the beam through welding. However, with cold-formed members being very thin, welding of shear connectors is not desirable in cold-formed composite constructions. Shear connectors for cold-formed elements are limited in studies as well as in the market. Hence in this study, three different types of shear connectors, namely, single-channel, double channel, and self-tapping screw, were considered, and their performance assessed by the Push-out test as per Eurocode 4. The connection between channel shear connectors and the beam was made using self-tapping screws to avoid welding. The performance of the connectors was analyzed based on their ultimate capacity, characteristic capacity, ductility, and slippage during loading. Strength to weight ratio was also carried out to understand the proposed connectors' suitability for conventional ones. The results showed relatively higher initial stiffness and ductility for double channel connectors than other connectors. Also, self-tapping screws had a higher strength to weight ratio with low ductility.

Temperature monitoring techniques per depth have been recognized as important information in the reservoir environmental issues. However, old measurement method by single temperature sensor and cable type has demerits not only for its limited measuring location but for its inconvenience of users. In this study, multi-channel temperature monitoring system was introduced and executed experiment for actual application feasibility evaluation. Both type of new techniques such as multi-channel addressable built-in temperature sensor and fiber optic multi sensor were tested in Daechung and Imha reservoir. As a result, it was proved that these kinds of temperature monitoring skills had very good performance and availability for a output of spatial, simultaneous thermal distribution focused on the user's convenience. And these measuring method and thermal data will be useful for providing basic information in a water resources investigation like reservoir stratification and environmental problems.

This experimental study investigates the local heat transfer enhancement characteristics and the associated frictional head loss in the rectangular channel with a single inclined baffle. Four different types of the baffle are used. The inclined baffles have the width of 19.8 cm, the square diamond of $2.55cm{\times}2.55cm$, and the inclination angle of 5o, and number of holes of up to 9. Reynolds number is varied between 23,000 and 57,000. Results show that the heat transfer and friction factor depend significantly on the number of baffle holes and Reynolds number. The friction factor decreases with increasing Reynolds number and the number of holes on the baffle. It is found that the heat transfer performance of baffle type II(3 hole baffle) has the best values.

A simple scheduler satisfying the proportional fairness (PF) was introduced in wireless access networks and revealed that it can achieve a good compromise between total throughput and user fairness. Though it has received much attention for some time, its application was mainly restricted to the single channel systems. In this paper, we study how to implement the PF scheduler in the multi-channel environments such as OFDMA/TDMA. Besides the traditional PF-SC scheme, we propose a new PF-OPT scheme that is the genuine PF scheduler in a sense of maximizing the total log-utility of users. The simulation results show that PF-OPT gives large throughput under the heterogeneous subchannel statistics.
