In wind tunnel experiments, the blockage effect is a very important factor which affects the test results significantly. A number of investigations into this problem, especially on the blockage correction of drag coefficient, have been carried out in the past. However, only a limited number of works have been reported on the wind tunnel blockage effect on wind-induced vibration although it is considered to be fairly important. This paper discusses the aerodynamic characteristics of the square model and square model with corner cut based on a series of the wind tunnel tests with various blockage ratios and angles of attack. From the test results, the aerodynamic behavior of square models with up to 10% blockage ratio are almost the same and square models with up to 10% blockage ratio can be tested as a group which behaves similarly.

Numerous wearable technology companies have recently developed several headmounted display (HMD) products for virtual reality (VR) services. 5G wireless networks aim at providing high-quality 3D multimedia services such as VR, augmented reality, and mixed reality. In this study, we examine the application of millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology to realize low-latency wireless communication between an HMD and its content server. However, the propagation characteristics of mmWave present several challenges such as the deafness, blockage, and beam alignment problems, and interference among content servers. In this study, we focus on an environment that provides VR services in the mmWave band and introduce existing techniques for addressing such challenges. In addition, we employ a commercialized IEEE 802.11ad VR dongle to measure the actual data rate of an mmWave VR application and identify the degree to which the performance deteriorates when the above problems occur. Finally, we verify the feasibility of the proposed solutions through a simulation of several VR scenarios in the mmWave band.

The challenge of penetrating obstacles along with impact from weak multipath effects makes 60GHz signal very difficult to be transmitted in non-line of sight (NLOS) channel. So 60GHz system is vulnerable to obstructions and thus likely results in link interruption. While the application of cooperative technology to solve link blockage problemin 60GHz system should consider the characteristic of directional transmission for 60GHz signal. Therefore in this paper a system is proposed to solve the link blockage problem in 60GHz NLOS communication environment based on the concept of cooperation and also the beamforming technology, which is the basis of directional transmission for 60GHz communication system. The process of anti-blockage solution with cooperative communication is presented in detail, and the fast switching and recovery schemes are well designed. The theoretical values of symbol error rate (SER) using decode and forward (DF) cooperation and amplify and forward (AF) cooperation are presented respectively when the common channel interference exists. Simulation results demonstrate that the performance based on DF cooperation is better than the performance based on AF cooperation when directional transmission is used.

본 논문에서는 무인항공기의 운용 범위 내에서 데이터링크 두절을 최소화할 수 있는 탑재 가시선 데이터링크 방향성 안테나의 최적 위치를 EM(Electromagnetic) 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석하였다. 무인항공기의 급격한 거동 시 동체 Blockage로 인한 전자파 왜곡 및 손실로 데이터링크 두절이 발생할 수 있다. 이와 같은 데이터링크 두절을 방지하기 위하여 무인항공기의 거동범위를 제한하면 선회 반경이 커지게 되고, 이로 인하여 임무 수행에 많은 제약이 발생할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 1축 방향성 안테나의 동체 상/하부 장착을 고려한 최적위치에 대하여 EM시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 장착된 방향성 안테나는 수직빔폭이 넓은 1축 안테나를 적용하여 수직 빔폭 만큼 무인항공기가 데이터링크 두절 없이 거동할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 또한, 2축이 아닌 1축 안테나 탑재로 인하여 탑재 중량도 크게 줄일 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다.

An axisymmetric flow induced by a train moving into a tunnel is numerically simulated. The effect of train shape on wavefront of a compression wave created by a train is investigated parametrically using several model trains having the same nose shape but different blockage. The zonal method combined with the Fortified Solution Algorithm (FSA) is employed as a numerical algorithm to solve this moving body problem. The computational result is compared with the experimental data. Good agreement is obtained, which justifies the present computational approach. The compression waves created by the model trains are compared and the result shows that the pressure gradient of the wavefront of the compression wave becomes small in the case of small blockage even though the nose shape is same. The wavefront is not determined solely by the cross-sectional area distribution of the train nose.

Objectives : The practices of Wei-qi and Nutritive-qi are generally divided into external Mai and internal Mai. However, they are closely interrelated and practiced together. While taking these aspects into consideration, this paper attempts to make interpretations in relation with Nutritive-qi the disease pathogens that appear in Shanghanlun's disease symptoms. Methods : Using the practice and function of Nutritive-qi described in Huangdineijing, the paper shall make interpretations for the patterns of Mawhangtang, patterns of Gaejitang, and the pathologies of pain, oedema, and nosebleed as described in Shanghanlun. Results & Conclusions : The pain from the patterns of Gaejitang differ from that of the patterns of Mawhangtang. First, the pain from the the patterns of Gaejitang cannot be the main symptom. Even if there is a symptom of pain, it's severity is not serious. Second, the pain from the patterns of Gaejiang takes the form of stiffness, and not general bodily pain. The reason for this stiffness is because of the emptiness of Wei-qi that leads to the congestion of Nutritive-qi which in turn causes the lack of qi and blood flow in muscula area such as abdomins. The symptom of oedema where one's body becomes swollen comes from a number of pathogens. First, the flow of meridian becomes hindered due to external dampness, a character which tends to be adhesive when added with humidty, and this results in the blockage of water qi which then causes the coagulation of nutritive blood. Second, when toxic heat is repressed and blocked within the lesser-yang channel, lesser-yang meridian stops working, which causes nutritive blood to clog at the front and back of ears since lesser-yang channel flows through that portion of body. Third, although oedema is not specifically mentioned in the sentences, but there exists the patterns of Daechungyongtang where water lumps are formed due to the accumulation and blockage of watery dampness. The patterns of Daechungyongtang is cuased when meridian is hindered from externally discharging body fluid due to a problem with meridian that blocks the fumigated internal heat which turns into bodily fluid from being discharged externally.

The frequent handover problem and playing ping-pong effects in 5G (5th Generation) ultra-dense networking cannot be effectively resolved by the conventional handover decision methods, which rely on the handover thresholds and measurement reports. For instance, millimetre-wave LANs, broadband remote association techniques, and 5G/6G organizations are instances of group of people yet to come frameworks that request greater security, lower idleness, and dependable principles and correspondence limit. One of the critical parts of 5G and 6G innovation is believed to be successful blockage the board. With further developed help quality, it empowers administrator to run many systems administration recreations on a solitary association. To guarantee load adjusting, forestall network cut disappointment, and give substitute cuts in case of blockage or cut frustration, a modern pursuing choices framework to deal with showing up network information is require. Our goal is to balance the strain on BSs while optimizing the value of the information that is transferred from satellites to BSs. Nevertheless, due to their irregular flight characteristic, some satellites frequently cannot establish a connection with Base Stations (BSs), which further complicates the joint satellite-BS connection and channel allocation. SF redistribution techniques based on Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) have been devised, taking into account the randomness of the data received by the terminal. In order to predict the best capacity improvements in the wireless instruments of 5G and 6G IoT networks, a hybrid algorithm for deep learning is being used in this study. To control the level of congestion within a 5G/6G network, the suggested approach is put into effect to a training set. With 0.933 accuracy and 0.067 miss rate, the suggested method produced encouraging results.

GPS provides the positioning solution in most areas of the world. However, the position error largely occurs in the urban area due to signal attenuation, signal blockage, and multipath. Although many studies have been carried out to solve this problem, a definite solution has not yet been proposed. Therefore, research is being conducted to solve the vehicle localization problem in the urban environment by converging sensors such as cameras and Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR). In this paper, the precise vehicle localization using 3D LIDAR (Velodyne HDL-32E) is performed in the urban area. As there are many tall buildings in the urban area and the outer walls of urban buildings consist of planes generally perpendicular to the earth's surface, the outer wall of the building meets at a vertical corner and this vertical corner can be accurately extracted using 3D LIDAR. In this paper, we describe the vertical corner extraction method using 3D LIDAR and perform the precise localization by combining the extracted corner position and GPS/DR information. The driving test was carried out in an about 4.5 km-long section near Teheran-ro, Gangnam. The lateral and longitudinal RMS position errors were 0.146 m and 0.286 m, respectively and showed very accurate localization performance.
