In the underwater acoustic communication channels, a multipath reflection becomes the cause of obstacle. To solve this problem, a rake receiver has been required for which one could take the time diversity. However, there is a concern about using incorrect path to recover signals with a high weighting value as underwater acoustic communication channels have severe time-variant property. In order to prevent these problem, a rake receiver is proposed which is based on BER(bit error rate) train sequence duration. The performance is evaluated through lake trials; there are three methods that are a proposed rake receiver, a conventional rake receiver, and a non-rake receiver. As a result, the number of bit errors in the proposed rake receiver, that of bit errors in the conventional rake receiver, and that of bit errors in the non-rake receiver is 8, 45, and 72, respectively.

SSD (solid state disk), which is flash memory-based storage device, has the advantages of high density and fast data processing. Therefore, it is being utilized as a storage device for high-capacity data storage systems that manage rapidly increasing big data. However, flash memory, a storage media, has a physical limitation that when the write/erase operation is repeated more than a certain number of times, the cells are worn out and can no longer be used. In this paper, we propose a method for converting defective multi-bit cells into single-bit cells to reduce the defect rate of flash memory and extend its lifetime. The proposed idea distinguishes the defects and treatment methods of multi-bit cells and single-bit cells, which have different physical characteristics but are treated as the same defect, and converts the expected defective multi-bit cells into single-bit cells to improve the defect rate and extend the overall lifetime. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed idea by measuring the increased lifetime of SSD through simulations.

This paper proposes a 4 kbps PSI-VSELP(Pitch Synchronous Innovation-Vector Sum Excited Linear Prediction) speech coder which produces speech equivalent to that of the conventional 4.8 kbps VSELP. Since the 'half-rate' is differently defined from country to country, there may be a need to reduce the bit rate of conventional half-rate coder. To minimize the degradation of speech quality caused by bit-rate reduction, it is desirable to perform bit-allocation based on the carefull consideration of the effect of various transmission parameters. This paper adopts this analytical approach for bit-allocation at 4 kbps. To improve the quality of the VSELP coder at 4 kbps, basis vectors which play the most important role in the performance, are optimized by an iterative closed-loop training process and the PSI technique is employed in the VSELP performance, are optimized by an iterative closed-loop training process and the PSI technique is employed in the VSELP coder. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed speech coder, we peformed experiments under the noiseless and error free conditions. From experimental results, even though the proposed 4 kbps PSI-VSELP coder showed lower scores in the objective measure, higher scores in subjective measure was obtained compared with those of the conventional 4.8 kbps VSELp.

In wireless ad-hoc network, knowing the available bandwidth of the time varying channel is imperative for live video streaming applications. This is because the available bandwidth is varying all the time and strictly limited against the large data size of video streaming. Additionally, adapting the encoding rate to the suitable bit-rate for the network, where an overlarge encoding rate induces congestion loss and playback delay, decreases the loss and delay. While some effective rate controlling methods have been proposed and simulated well like VTP (Video Transport Protocol) [1], implementing to cooperate with the encoder and tuning the parameters are still challenging works. In this paper, we show our result of the implementation experiment of VTP based encoding rate controlling method and then introduce some techniques of our parameter tuning for a video streaming application over wireless environment.

H.264 SVC(Scalable Video Coding) provides the advantages of low disk storage requirement and high scalability. However, a streaming server or a user terminal has to extract a bit stream from SVC file. This paper proposes a bit stream extraction method which can get the maximum PSNR value while date bit rate does not exceed the available network bandwidth. To do this, this paper obtains the information about extraction points which can get the maximum PSNR value offline and decides the spatial/temporal resolution of a bit stream at run-time. This resolution information along with available network bandwidth is used as the parameters to a bit stream extractor. Through experiment with JSVM reference software, we proved that proposed bit stream extraction method can get a higher PSNR value.

The most widely used method for searching contents of mot ion picture compares contents by extracted cuts. The cut extract ion methods, such as CHD(Color Histogram Difference) or ECR(Edge Change Ratio), are very weak at modifications such as cropping, resizing and low bit rate. The suggested method uses audio contents for indexing and searching to make search be robust against these modification. Scenes of audio contents are extracted for modification-robust search. And based on these scenes, make spectral powers binary on each frequency bin. in the time-frequency domain. The suggested method shows failure rate less than 1% on the false positive error and the true negative error to the modified(using cropping, clipping, row bit rate, addtive frame) contents.

In the distributed video coding (DVC) system, the difference between the side information and the original Wyner-Ziv frame is corrected using channel codes and the additional parity bits are requested through feedback channel if the error is not corrected. The efficient bit rate control is important to use the DVC system in the band-limited channel, such as mobile communication environments. In this paper, the constant bit rate control method in the encoder of the DVC system is proposed. The coding performance as well as the bit rate is efficiently controlled by the proposed method.

Over ATM network, variable bit rate(or VBR) traffic is allowed. Control of VBR traffic is allowed. Control of VBR traffic becomes difficult if it is bursty. VBR video traffic becomes so much bursty during intra frame period that much cell loss would occur when satistical multiplexed in ATM swich. To aviod cellloss, extra communication resources should be allocated, which reduces the capability of an ATM channel. In this paper, we propose two methods which enable a channel limited in resources to serve more VBR MPEG video bit streams. Firstly, we could redue the bitrate fluction of a statiscally multiplexed bundle of VBR video bit streams by reducing the number of intra frames overlapped at the same frame period. This method can be used in ATM switch which controls multiple video sources. Secondary, in two layer enoding, statistical multiplexing gains can be icreased by letting peak bit rate durations of both layers not be overlapped. This results in more smooth traffic. The performance of proposed methods are demonstrated by a proposed calculation method of statistical multiplexing gains(or SMGs.) The proposed SMG is based on both delay and cell loss QoS requirements at the same time.
