In this paper, we propose a conversational quality measurement (CQM) system for providing the objective QoS of high quality mobile VoIP voice telecommunication. For measuring the conversational quality, the VoIP telecommunication system is implemented in two smart phones connected with VoIP. The VoIP telecommunication system consists of echo cancellation, noise reduction, speech encoding/decoding, packet generation with RTP (Real-Time Protocol), jitter buffer control and POS (Play-out Schedule) with LC (loss Concealment). The CQM system is connected to a microphone and a speaker of each smart phone. The voice signal of each speaker is recorded and used to measure CE (Conversational Efficiency), CS (Conversational Symmetry), PESQ (Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality) and CE-CS-PESQ correlation. We prove the CQM system by measuring CE, CS and PESQ under various SNR, delay and loss due to IP network environment.

에너지 절약과 에너지 재생산 측면에 있어서 일상생활에서 낭비되고 있는 에너지를 다시 회수하여 재사용 할 수 있는 시스템은 경제적인 측면에서 그 가치가 높다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서 일반 주유소나 도장시설 등과 같은 환경에서 무심히 대기로 배출되는 휘발성 유증기를 포집하여 다시 에너지로 재사용하게 되면 경제적인 효과가 높다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 기존의 PLC 기반으로 동작하고 있는 휘발성유기화합물에 대한 액화장치(Liquefaction equipment)를 정보통신기술(Information & Communication Technology)을 접목시켜 액화장치를 효율적으로 관리하고, 내부 액화온도를 적절하게 제어하여 액화기의 효율을 향상시키고자 한다. 또한 액화기의 운전상태에 대한 정보를 ZigBee 기반의 무선 통신기술을 도입하여 원격지 관리서버로 액화기 상태정보를 전송하여 액화기에 대한 합리적인 운전 스케쥴 관리와 에너지 생산성을 높이고자 하며, 스마트기기로 모니터링 할 수 있도록 액화장치의 정보를 제공하고자 한다.

3G Long Term Evolution, which aims for various mobile multimedia service provision by enhanced wireless interface, proposes VoIP-based voice service through a Packet Switching (PS) domain. As delay and loss-sensitive VoIP traffic flows through the PS domain, more challenging technical difficulties are expected than in Circuit Switching (CS) domain based VoIP services. Moreover, since 3G LTE, which adopts the OFDM as its physical layer, introduces Physical Resource Block (PRB) as a unit for transmission resources, new types of resource management schemes are needed. This paper proposes a PRB scheduling algorithm of MAC layer for VoIP service in 3G LTE and shows the simulation results. The proposed algorithm has two key parts; dynamic activation of VoIP priority mode to satisfy VoIP QoS requirements and adaptive adjustment of the priority mode duration in order to minimize the degradation of resource utilization.

In this paper, we evaluate the capacity of voice over internet protocol (VoIP) services over high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), in which frame-bundling (FB) is incorporated to reduce the effect of relatively large headers in the IP/UDP/RTP layers. Also, a modified proportional pair (PF) packet scheduler design supporting for VoIP service is provided. The main focus of this work is the effect of FB on system outage based on delay budget in radio access networks. Simulation results show that VoIP system performance with FB scheme is highly sensitive to delay budget. We also conclude that HSDPA is attractive for transmission of VoIP if compared to the circuit switched (CS) voice that is used in WCDMA (Release'99).

PURPOSE. This study aimed to identify the effects of the sintering conditions of dental zirconia on the grain size and translucency. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Ten specimens of each of two commercial brands of zirconia (Lava and KaVo) were made and sintered under five different conditions. Microwave sintering (MS) and conventional sintering (CS) methods were used to fabricate zirconia specimens. The dwelling time was 20 minutes for MS and 20 minutes, 2, 10, and 40 hours for CS. The density and the grain size of the sintered zirconia blocks were measured. Total transmission measurements were taken using a spectrophotometer. Two-way analysis of variance model was used for the analysis and performed at a type-one error rate of 0.05. RESULTS. There was no significant difference in density between brands and sintering conditions. The mean grain size increased according to sintering conditions as follows: MS-20 min, CS-20 min, CS-2 hr, CS-10 hr, and CS-40 hr for both brands. The mean grain size ranged from 347-1,512 nm for Lava and 373-1,481 nm for KaVo. The mean light transmittance values of Lava and KaVo were 28.39-34.48% and 28.09-30.50%, respectively. CONCLUSION. Different sintering conditions resulted in differences in grain size and light transmittance. To obtain more translucent dental zirconia restorations, shorter sintering times should be considered.

본 연구에서는 VoIP와 같은 패킷망에서 G.729 CS-ACELP 음성부호화기에 패킷 손실 은닉 알고리즘을 적용하여, 패킷 손실로 인한 음질 저하의 완화에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 패킷 손실 은닉은 수신된 패킷으로부터 복호된 파형을 저장해두었다가, 손실이 발생하면 피치 동기가 맞도록 선택한 파형을 손실된 패킷자리에 대체하는 방법과 연속적인 손실 이후에 음성부호화기의 메모리를 초기화하는 방법에 기반하고 있다. 실제 VoIP 통화 실험에서 측정한 패킷 손실 분포에 대해 패킷 손실로 인한 음질 저하를 완화할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The metal oxide/graphene nanocomposites are promising functional materials for high capacitive electrode material of secondary batteries, and high sensitive material of high performance gas sensors. In this study, vanadium dioxide($VO_2$) nanostructrures were grown on CVD graphene which was synthesized on Cu foil by thermal CVD, and exfoliated graphene which was exfoliated from highly oriented pyrolytic graphite(HOPG) using a vapor transport method. As results, $VO_2$ nanostructures on CVD graphene were grown preferential growth on abundant functional groups of graphene grain boundaries. The functional groups are served to nucleation site of $VO_2$ nanostructures. On the other hand, 2D & 3D $VO_2$ nanostructures were grown on exfoliated graphene due to uniformly distributed functional groups on exfoliated graphene surface. The characteristics of morphology controlled growth of $VO_2$/graphene nanocomposites would be applied to fabrication process for high capacitive electrode materials of secondary batteries, and high sensitive materials of gas sensors.

Recently, cesium tellurium iodine (Cs₂TeI₆) has emerged as an inorganic halide perovskite material with potential application in optoelectronic devices due to its high absorption coefficient, suitable bandgap and because it consists of nontoxic and earth-abundant elements. However, studies on its fabrication process as well as photoresponse characteristics are limited. In this study, a simple and effective method is introduced for the synthesis of Cs₂TeI₆ thin films by a two-step dry process. A Cs₂TeI₆-based lateral photosensor was fabricated, and its photoresponse characteristics were explored under laser illuminations of four different wavelengths in the visible range: 405, 450, 520, and 655 nm. The initial photosensing results suggest potential application and can lead to more promising studies of Cs₂TeI₆ film in optoelectronics.

Heliminthic paramyosin is a multifunctional protein that not only acts as a structural protein in muscle layers but as an immune-modulatory molecule interacting with the host immune system. Previously, we found that paramyosin from Clonorchis sinensis (CsPmy) is bound to human complement C9 protein (C9). To analyze the C9 binding region on CsPmy, overlapping recombinant fragments of CsPmy were produced and their binding activity to human C9 was investigated. The fragmental expression of CsPmy and C9 binding assays revealed that the C9 binding region was located at the C-terminus of CsPmy. Further analysis of the C-terminus of CsPmy to narrow the C9 binding region on CsPmy indicated that the region flanking ⁷³¹Leu-⁷⁸⁰Leu was a potent C9 binding region. The CsPmy fragments corresponding to the region effectively inhibited human C9 polymerization. These results provide a precise molecular basis for CsPmy as a potent immunomodulator to evade host immune defenses by inhibiting complement attack.
