본 논문에서는 이동성을 갖춘 릴레이를 도입한 다중 셀 OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)-TDD (Time Division Duplex) 시스템에서 각 셀의 수율을 개별적으로 최대화시키기 위한 분산형 이동 릴레이 전력 제어 방식 (Distributed Mobile Relay Power Control; DMRPC)을 제안한다. DMRPC 방식을 사용한 릴레이 시스템에서는 서로 다른 셀 간 협력과 그에 따른 시그널링 오버헤드 없이 각 셀에서 개별적으로 릴레이의 전력 레벨을 제어한다. DMRPC 방식을 사용한 시스템이 전력 제어 없이 릴레이를 사용한 최대 전력 릴레이 시스템과, 릴레이를 사용하지 않은 기존 시스템에 비하여 향상된 셀 수율 성능을 보이는 것을 모의 실험을 통하여 검증한다. 또한, 최대 전력 릴레이 시스템이 기존 시스템에 비해 셀 외곽 지역 평균 수율 성능이 떨어지는 반면, DMRPC 방식을 사용하면 기존 시스템에 거의 근접한 셀 외곽 지역 평균 수율 성능을 얻을 수 있는 것을 보인다.

본 논문에서는 Mobile WiMAX 기반 군전술정보통신네트워크 (TICN)의 성능을 시스템 레벨에서 평가한다. 전시에 정지상태의 기지국 (BS: Base Station)들이 불규칙적으로 분포되어 있는 환경에서 이동 기지국 (BS-OTM)이 투입되었을 때 인접 기지국 및 가입자 (SS: Subscriber Station)가 받는 영향을 분석한다. 이동기지국이 추가적으로 사용되었을 때 서비스를 제공하는 기지국이 변함없는 가입자 관점에서는 간섭이 증가하여 CINR(Carrier To Interference and Noise Ratio)이 감소하고 이동 기지국에 의해 가입자가 두 기지국으로 분산되어 다중사용자 다이버시티가 감소하는 단점이 있음을 밝힌다. 그러나 통신 환경이 열악했던 가입자 주변에서 이동 기지국이 작동하게 되어 새롭게 서비스 받게 되는 가입자들은 큰 CINR 이득을 얻게 되며, 셀 전체적인 수율관점에서는 이동기지국에 의해 성능이 크게 향상된다. 또한, 반송파주파수, 이동기지국의 이동속도 및 위치에 따른 성능을 평가한다.

Aeronautical communication networks (ACN) is an emerging concept in which aeronautical stations (AS) are considered as a part of multi-tier network for the future wireless communication system. An AS could be a commercial plane, helicopter, or any other low orbit station, i.e., Unmanned air vehicle, high altitude platform. The goal of ACN is to provide high throughput and cost effective communication network for aeronautical applications (i.e., Air traffic control (ATC), air traffic management (ATM) communications, and commercial in-flight Internet activities), and terrestrial networks by using aeronautical platforms as a backbone. In this paper, we investigate the issues about connectivity, throughput, and delay in ACN. First, topology of ACN is presented as a simple mobile ad hoc network and connectivity analysis is provided. Then, by using information obtained from connectivity analysis, we investigate two communication models, i.e., single-hop and two-hop, in which each source AS is communicating with its destination AS with or without the help of intermediate relay AS, respectively. In our throughput analysis, we use the method of finding the maximum number of concurrent successful transmissions to derive ACN throughput upper bounds for the two communication models. We conclude that the two-hop model achieves greater throughput scaling than the single-hop model for ACN and multi-hop models cannot achieve better throughput scaling than two-hop model. Furthermore, since delay issue is more salient in two-hop communication, we characterize the delay performance and derive the closed-form average end-to-end delay for the two-hop model. Finally, computer simulations are performed and it is shown that ACN is robust in terms of throughput and delay performances.

Shipbuilding is a typical 'build to order' industry. It has a business model that generates revenues from building various ships and offshore products in accordance with owner's requirements at each production stage. Under uncertainty in shipping market, it is very essential for the shipbuilder to prepare the fast and competitive decision for product portfolio strategy in order to maximize contribution margin by exploiting production facilities and constraints. In this study, we introduce the unique decision supporting methodology for the optimal product portfolio sets based on Theory of Constraints(TOC). This methodology is established by adopting the concept of Drum Buffer Rope(DBR) in constraints planning and Throughput Accounting (TA) in management accounting of TOC. In addition, Decision Supporting System(DSS) is implemented. This DSS system provides a throughput estimator with reflecting the cost structure of shipbuilding industry and a resource simulator built on heuristic algorithms to operate major constraint-resources in shipyard such as dock, quay and pre-erection area etc. Several examples are presented to show that the proposed methodology and system can effectively support the strategic decision-making process of a global shipbuilding company.

A cluster topology was proposed with the assumption of zero noise to improve the performance of wireless body area networks (WBANs). However, in WBANs, the transmission power should be reduced as low as possible to avoid the effect of electromagnetic waves on the human body and to extend the lifetime of a battery. Therefore, in this work, we consider a bit error rate for a cluster-based WBAN and analyze the performance of the system while the transmission of sensors and cluster headers (CHs) is controlled. Moreover, a hierarchical topology is proposed for the cluster-based WBAN to further improve the throughput of the system; this proposed system is called as the hierarchical cluster WBAN. The hierarchical cluster WBAN is combined with a transmission control scheme, that is, complete control, spatial reuse superframe, to increase the throughput. The proposed system is analyzed and evaluated based on several factors of the system model, such as signal-to-noise ratio, number of clusters, and number of sensors. The calculation result indicates that the proposed hierarchical cluster WBAN outperforms the cluster-based WBAN in all analyzed scenarios.

Cong Shen과 Micael P. Fitz에 의해 제안된 OSO(opportunistic spatial orthogonalization)는 주 사용자가 모든 라이선스 주파수 대역을 점유하고 있는 동안에 부 사용자들이 그 주파수 대역을 동시에 사용할 수 있도록 하는 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 single-input multi-output system을 기반으로 하여, 주 사용자의 송신 전략을 유지하며 주 사용자의 송신기에서 활성 부 사용자의 수신기로 가는 간섭을 고려한 활성 부 사용자 선택 알고리즘을 소개한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 주 사용자에게 최소한의 전송 용량(throughput)을 보장하며 기존 OSO 방법보다 더 높은 성능을 보인다. 우리는 모의실험을 통해 여러 제약 조건 하에서 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 검증한다.

Thus far, several in vivo biosensing platforms have been proposed to measure the mechanical contractility of cultured cardiomyocytes. However, the low sensitivity and screening rate of the developed sensors severely limit their practical applications. In addition, intensive research and development in cardiovascular disease demand a high-throughput drug-screening platform based on biomimetic engineering. To overcome the drawbacks of the current state-of-the-art methods, we propose a high-throughput drug-screening platform based on 16 functional high-sensitivity well plates. The proposed system simulates the physiological accuracy of the heart function in an in vitro environment. We fabricated 64 cantilevers using highly flexible and optically transparent silicone rubber and placed in 16 independent wells. Nanogrooves were imprinted on the surface of the cantilever to promote cell alignment and maturation. The adverse effects of the cardiovascular drugs on the cultured cardiomyocytes were systematically investigated. The 64 cantilevers demonstrated a highly reliable and reproducible mechanical contractility of the drug-treated cardiomyocytes. Real-time high-throughput screening and simultaneous evaluation of the cardiomyocyte mechanical contractility under multiple drugs verified that the proposed system could be used as an efficient drugtoxicity test platform.

The study of molecular markers to improve crops largely depends on the availability of rapid and of efficient DNA extraction methods. Here we developed a cheap and convenient method to isolate genomic DNA from rice grains suitable for large-scale microsatellite analysis. We confirmed that the isolated rice DNA is suitable for PCR analysis with STS marker and SNP marker, as well as microsatellite marker. Further, we established high-throughput DNA extraction system in a 96-well plate format which make it possible high-throughput analysis of microsatellite markers with rice grains. This implies that the new method could be a useful tool for other types of marker analysis in large scale.

Cognitive radio (CR) is a feasible intelligent technology and can be used as an effective solution to spectrum scarcity and underutilization. As the key function of CR, cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) is able to effectively prevent the harmful interference with primary users (PUs) and identify the available spectrum resources by exploiting the spatial diversity of multiple secondary users (SUs). However, the open nature of the cognitive radio networks (CRNs) framework makes CSS face many security threats, such as, the malicious user (MU) launches Byzantine attack to undermine CRNs. For this aim, we make an in-depth analysis of the motive and purpose from the MU's perspective in the interweave CR system, aiming to provide the future guideline for defense strategies. First, we formulate a dynamic Byzantine attack model by analyzing Byzantine behaviors in the process of CSS. On the basis of this, we further make an investigation on the condition of making the fusion center (FC) blind when the fusion rule is unknown for the MU. Moreover, the throughput and interference to the primary network are taken into consideration to evaluate the impact of Byzantine attack on the interweave CR system, and then analyze the optimal strategy of Byzantine attack when the fusion rule is known. Finally, theoretical proofs and simulation results verify the correctness and effectiveness of analyses about the impact of Byzantine attack strategy on the throughput and interference.
