The global warming by greenhouse gases causes climate change and disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis frequently, leading to great damage. It is important to build efficient and scalable disaster response services to minimize the damage. Existing disaster warning service by the mobile text is limited by the scalability and the data size to be delivered. In this paper, we propose a framework for disaster response services that is efficient and flexible by allowing to adopt various indexing schemes and scalable by supporting any number of clients in disaster situations anytime and anywhere. Also, the framework by wireless data broadcast can be free from the limitation of the size of data to be delivered. We design and implement the proposed framework and evaluate the framework. For the evaluation, we simulate the implemented framework by adopting various indexing schemes like HCI, DSI and TTSI, and by comparing the access times of the clients. Through the evaluation, we show that the proposed framework can provide efficient and scalable and flexible disaster response services.

In this paper, the current status of domestic radio use was compared with foreign countries such as the UK and the US. As a result of the comparison, it was found that the radio reach in both the UK and the US was very high at around 90%, but in Korea it was found to be very low at 21.7%. In addition, in the UK and the US, radio broadcasting is recognized as an important medium for delivering disaster warning messages in the event of a disaster, but in Korea, the importance of radio broadcasting in disaster situations was assessed at 0.7%, confirming that its importance is being overlooked. And the measures to increase the domestic radio broadcasting usage rate are 'Improving service quality such as expanding radio reception coverage', 'Awareness of the importance of radio broadcasting as a disaster warning medium', 'Introduction of digital radio' and 'Introduction of FM radio data broadcasting'. are presented.

Recently, there are active studies on a forward collision warning system to prevent the accidents and improve convenience of drivers. For collision evasion, the vehicle detection system is required. In general, existing learning-based vehicle detection methods use the entire appearance of the vehicles from rear-view images, so that each vehicle types should be learned separately since they have distinct rear-view appearance regarding the types. To overcome such shortcoming, we learn Haar-like features from the lower part of the vehicles which contain tail lights to detect vehicles leveraging the fact that the lower part is consistent regardless of vehicle types. As a verification procedure, we detect tail lights to distinguish actual vehicles and non-vehicles. If candidates are too small to detect the tail lights, we use HOG(Histogram Of Gradient) feature and SVM(Support Vector Machine) classifier to reduce false alarms. The proposed forward vehicle detection method shows accuracy of 95% even in the complicated images with many buildings by the road, regardless of vehicle types.

The purpose of this study is to suggest improvement direction of the delivery system through researching the information accepter' recognition and use about warning delivery system. According to the survey, they listen to civil defence alert broadcasting on mass media more than personal media. The frequency of alert broadcasting is significantly very low and they listen to it below 5 times in a year. Also, nearly one in four people says its siren and contents are indistinct. Alert broadcasting's siren shows less memory retrieval and sorting capability than others and the result shows that they will act based on the broadcasting instead of reacting to prior knowledge in real situations. Finally, the result shows that improving public awareness through education and publicity more than social system buildup is important in civil defence alert system.

This paper presents the design of service model, transport channel, and service signaling for the Terrestrial DMB Automatic Emergency Alert Service (AEAS) Standard. The paper begins with the analysis of technical backgrounds related to the design topics. Next, the raper presents the design of service model for the AEAS. Since, unlike the regular T-DMB services, the AEAS is event-driven and common to all services, some problems have been identified to design a service model conforming to the T-DMB standard. So, the paper proposes a new concept, called the common service, and the AEAS is modeled using the common service. Next, in order to decide the transport channel for the alert information, the paper proposes to divide the alert information into the message which contains code/text-based essential information, and the supplemental multimedia information. Then, the paper tries to find the most efficient transport channels. Emergency Warning Service (EWS) which uses FIG 5/2 is selected for the delivery of the message. The paper proposes no constraints on delivery of supplemental information except that it shall use the MSC. Finally, it proposes the service signaling for the common service and transport channel. Due to the problems of conventional signaling using the MCI, it proposes a new signaling method. The paper will contribute as a guideline to the development for emergency alert service standards fur other broadcasting media.

지난 4월4일 고성 산불로 사망자 2명과 부상자 1명, 가옥 500여 채, 삼림 1757ha가 불에 탔다. 강원 산불에 이어 영덕지진 등에서 늑장대응을 보여준 재난방송시스템에는 많은 국민들에게 실망감을 안겨주었다. 재난방송 주관방송사인 KBS는 물론, MBC, SBS의 경우도 재난방송시스템에 관련 된 측면에서 본다면 아직 이웃나라 인 일본에 비해서는 매우 열악한 형편이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 점점 대형화, 다발화 하는 재난발생에 대응하기 위해서는 국가적인 차원에서도 특단의 조치가 필요하다. 미국의 경우는 차세대 재난정보 전달체계인 IPAWS(Integrated Public Alert and Warning System)를 개발해 지상파뿐만 아니라, 케이블TV, SNS 등 다양한 매체를 통해 재난정보를 신속하게 전달하고 있다. 일본도 이와 유사한 재난경보전달시스템인 J-Alert를 개발해 2020년까지는 '재난 약자 제로(Zero)시대'를 목표로 구현하고 있다. 우리나라는 지난 아현동 KT 화재사건에서도 경험했듯이 통신이 먹통이 되는 통신블랙아웃도 경험했다. 따라서 대형재난발생 시는 신속한 재난경보전달시스템이 재난피해를 줄일 수 있는 가장 중요한 생명줄이 될 수 있다. 미국이나 일본의 경우는 재난방송전달시스템을 관련법령으로 제도화 하고 있다. 특히, 일본에는 재난에 관한 모법이라고 할 수 있는 (1)"재해대책기본법"이 있는데, 이는 재해로부터 국토, 국민의 생명과 재산을 보호하기 위한 기본법으로 규정되어 있다. 그 밖에도 (2)방송법 (3)대규모지진대책특별 조치법 (4)국민보호법 (5)소방조직법 (6)수해방지법 등으로 규정하고 있다. 과거 일본도 우리나라와 같이 대형 산불이 잦았으나 요즘은 소형 산불만 발생하는 추세다. 이는 NHK가 보유한 700여 대의 로봇카메라와 전 국토를 샅샅이 감시하는 CCTV 덕택이다. 또한, NHK 보도국의 '기상 재해센터'는 재난에 대비해 40여 명의 전문 인력이 24시간 대응체제를 갖추고 있다. 나아가 NHK는 전국 12개의 거점지역에 헬리콥터 15대를 배치하여 신속하게 취재하고 있다. 이 뿐만 아니라, 46개의 지역방송국을 7개의 거점방송국으로 분할하여, 거점방송국마다 40여명의 카메라맨을 상주시켜 언제든지 재난을 취재할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 세계 각국에서 사용하고 있는 방송 주파수는 공공재(公共材)다. 국제전기통신연합(ITU : International Telecommunication Union)으로부터 주파수를 할당받아 사용하고 있기 때문에 주파수에 관한 사용 권한은 각국의 국민 모두에게 있다. 그러나 효과적인 주파수 활용을 전제로 정부가 일정한 자격을 갖춘 방송사업자에게 일시적으로 주파수 사용권을 위임하고 있다. 따라서 일본 정부도 국가적인 위기나 대형 재난발생으로 국민들의 생명과 재산이 위협받고 있을 때에는 공공재인 주파수를 즉시 재난방송으로 사용할 수 있도록 <재해대책기본법 제6조>와 방송법 제108조에 규정하고 있다.

In the end of 1990's, future free flight technology had been developed and tested in America and government established the plan for free flight until 2017. Aircraft separation assurance must be secured essentially to avoid collision between aircrafts before Free Flight comes true. Now, Civil aircraft has rules about avoidance activity with traffic collision avoidance system (TCAS) but it can't apply to light aircraft. So there is a need about alternative method to apply light-aircraft because it has space and price problem to use TCAS. In this paper, TCAS algorithm has been modified and verified by simulating with LABVIEW program under ADS-B condition to get miniaturization and weight lighting cheaply. By simulating, collision alert algorithm is analyzed and verified with collision situation proposed by ICAO, and 100% checked for performing the alert announciation on all cases by TCAS standards.

In IEEE 802.11p/1609-based vehicular networks, vehicles are allowed to exchange safety and control messages only within time periods, called control channel (CCH) interval, which are scheduled periodically. Currently, the length of the CCH interval is set to the fixed value (i.e. 50ms). However, the fixed-length intervals cannot be effective for dynamically changing traffic load. Hence, some protocols have been recently proposed to support variable-length CCH intervals in order to improve channel utilization. In existing protocols, the CCH interval is subdivided into safety and non-safety intervals, and the length of each interval is dynamically adjusted to accommodate the estimated traffic load. However, they do not consider the presence of hidden nodes. Consequently, messages transmitted in each interval are likely to overlap with simultaneous transmissions (i.e. interference) from hidden nodes. Particularly, life-critical safety messages which are exchanged within the safety interval can be unreliably delivered due to such interference, which deteriorates QoS of safety applications such as cooperative collision warning. In this paper, we therefore propose a new interference-aware Dynamic Safety Interval (DSI) protocol. DSI calculates the number of vehicles sharing the channel with the consideration of hidden nodes. The safety interval is derived based on the measured number of vehicles. From simulation study using the ns-2, we verified that DSI outperforms the existing protocols in terms of various metrics such as broadcast delivery ration, collision probability and safety message delay.
