The modification of conditional Fuzzy C-Means (CFCM) with Gaussian weights (CFCM_GW) is accomplished for blind equalization of channels in this paper. The proposed CFCM_GW can deal with both of linear and nonlinear channels, because it searches for the optimal desired states of an unknown channel in a direct manner, which is not dependent on the type of channel structure. In the search procedure of CFCM_GW, the Bayesian likelihood fitness function, the Gaussian weighted partition matrix and the conditional constraint are exploited. Especially, in contrast to the common Euclidean distance in conventional Fuzzy C-Means(FCM), the Gaussian weighted partition matrix and the conditional constraint in the proposed CFCM_GW make it more robust to the heavy noise communication environment. The selected channel states by CFCM_GW are always close to the optimal set of a channel even when the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is heavily corrupted. These given channel states are utilized as the input of the Bayesian equalizer to reconstruct transmitted symbols. The simulation studies demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is relatively superior to those of the existing conventional FCM based approaches in terms of accuracy and speed.

압축된 정지 영상이나 비디오 비트열들은 무선채널에서 채널 에러의 보호가 요구된다. Embedded Zero Coding(EZW)와 SPIHT는 낮은 복합도의 영상압축에서 매우 우수한 성능을 제공하여준다. 무선 채널의 전송상의 문제로 인해 비트 에러가 발생하게 되면 부호화와 복호화 사이의 동기를 잃어버리게 되어 심각한 성능의 저하를 일으키게 된다. 그러나 웨이브렛 제로코딩 알고리즘은 에러에 매우 민감한 가변 길이 코드워드가 생성된다. 이 논문의 아이디어는 리프팅 계수들을 분할하는 것이다. 리프팅 변환들의 많은 분할이 무선채널의 채널 에러를 각 분할로 분배된다. 그래서 정지 영상이나 비디오 스트림에서 영상 왜곡을 야기 시키는 동기화 문제가 개선되었다.

In H.264, three different data partition types are used, which have unequal importance to the reconstructed video quality. To improve the performance of H.264 video streaming transmission over IEEE 802.11e Wireless Local Area Networks, a prioritization mechanism that categorizes different partition types to different priority classes according to the calculated distortion within one Group of Pictures. In the proposed scheme, video streams have been encoded based on the H.264 codec with its data partition enabled. The dynamic scheduling scheme based on Enhanced Distributed Channel Access has been configured to differentiate the data partitions according to their distortion impact and the queue utilization ratio. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the received video quality by 1dB in PSNR compared with the existing Enhanced Distributed Channel Access static mapping scheme.

In this paper, blind equalization using a modified Fuzzy C-Means algorithm with Gaussian Weights (MFCM_GW) is attempted to the heavy noise-corrupted channels. The proposed algorithm can deal with both of linear and nonlinear channels, because it searches for the optimal channel output states of a channel instead of estimating the channel parameters in a direct manner. In contrast to the common Euclidean distance in Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), the use of the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and the Gaussian weighted partition matrix is exploited in its search procedure. The selected channel states by MFCM_GW are always close to the optimal set of a channel even the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is heavily corrupted in it. Simulation studies demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is relatively superior to existing genetic algorithm (GA) and conventional FCM based methods in terms of accuracy and speed.

In this study, a modified Fuzzy C-Means algorithm with Gaussian weights (MFCM_GW) is presented for the problem of nonlinear blind channel equalization. The proposed algorithm searches for the optimal channel output states of a nonlinear channel based on received symbols. In contrast to conventional Euclidean distance in Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), the use of the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and the Gaussian weighted partition matrix is exploited in this method. In the search procedure, all possible sets of desired channel states are constructed by considering the combinations of estimated channel output states. The set of desired states characterized by the maxima] value of the Bayesian fitness is selected and updated by using the Gaussian weights. After this procedure, the Bayesian equalizer with the final desired states is implemented to reconstruct transmitted symbols. The performance of the proposed method is compared with those of a simplex genetic algorithm (GA), a hybrid genetic algorithm (GA merged with simulated annealing (SA):GASA), and a previously developed version of MFCM. In particular, a relative]y high accuracy and a fast search speed have been observed.

본 논문에서 역 방향 링크 채널에 대해 비 선형 등화기를 이용하여 CDMA 셀룰라 시스템을 연구하였다. 일반적으로 무선 통신에서 불확실한 채널 특성 때문에 Observable 들의 확률분포는 유한 세트의 파라미터로 규정될 수 없다. 대신에 training 샘플에 기반을 둔 Quantile과 Vector Quantizer를 사용함으로서 유한 수의 disjoint된 영역으로 m차 샘플 공간으로 분할하였다. 제안된 알고리듬은 RMSA 알고리즘에 의해 예측된 Quantile와 조건부 분할 모멘트에 따른 regression function의 부분적인 근사에 근간을 두고 있다. 본 논문의 등화기와 검출기는 잡음 분포의 Variation에 민감하지 않다는 관점에서 상당히 강한 특성을 보여 준다. 주요 아이디어는 Robust equalizer와 Robust partition detector가 어떤 환경의 무선 채널 하에서도 partition되지 않은 Observation space의 일반적인 등화기 보다 Observation의 등 확률로 분할된 부 공간에서 더 낳은 성능을 보여 준다. 또한 이런 개념을 CDMA 시스템에 적용하여 BER 성능을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 비선형 블라인드 채널등화기의 구현을 위하여 가우시안 가중치(gaussian weights)를 이용한 개선된 퍼지 클러스터(Modified Fuzzy C-Means with Gaussian Weights: MFCM_GW) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 기존 FCM 알고리즘의 유클리디언 거리(Euclidean distance) 값 대신 Bayesian Likelihood 목적 함수(fitness function)와 가우시안 가중치가 적용된 멤버십 매트릭스(partition matrix)를 이용하여, 비선형 채널의 출력으로 수신된 데이터들로부터 최적의 채널 출력 상태 값(optimal channel output states)들을 직접 추정한다. 이렇게 추정된 채널 출력 상태 값들로 비선형 채널의 이상적 채널 상태(desired channel states) 백터들을 구성하고, 이를 Radial Basis Function(RBF) 등화기의 중심(center)으로 활용함으로써 송신된 데이터 심볼을 찾아낸다. 실험에서는 무작위 이진 신호에 가우시안 잡음이 추가된 데이터를 사용하여 기존의 Simplex Genetic Algorithm(GA), 하이브리드 형태의 GASA(GA merged with simulated annealing(SA)), 그리고 과거에 발표되었던 MFCM 등과 그 성능을 비교 분석하였으며, 가우시안 가중치가 적용된 MFCM_GW를 이용한 채널등화기가 상대적으로 정확도와 속도 면에서 우수함을 보였다.

The characteristics of two-phase flow instability in a vertical boiling channel connecting with an unheated riser are investigated through the linear stability analysis model. Various two-phase flow models, including thermal non-equilibrium effects, are taken into account for establishing a physical model in the time domain. A classical approach to the frequency response method is adopted for the stability analysis by employing the D-partition method. The adequacy of the linear model is verified by evaluating experimental data at high quality conditions. It reveals that the flow-pattern-dependent drift velocity model enhances the prediction accuracy while the homogeneous equilibrium model shows the most conservative predictions. The characteristics of density wave oscillations under low-power and low-quality conditions are investigated by devising a simple model which accounts for the gravitational and frictional pressure losses along the channel. The necessary conditions for the occurrences of type-I instability and flow excursion are deduced from the one-dimensional D-partition analysis. The parametric effects of some design variables on low quality oscillations are also investigated.

To enhance the utilization of the traffic channels of a network (instead of allocating radio channel to an individual user), a channel or a group of channels are allocated to a user group. The idea behind this is the statistical distribution of traffic arrival rates and the service time for an individual user or a group of users. In this paper, we derive the blocking probability and throughput of a subscriber station of Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) by considering both the connection level and packet-level traffic under a complete partition scheme. The main contribution of the paper is to incorporate the traffic shaping scheme onto the incoming turbulent traffic. Hence, we have also analyzed the impact of the drain rate of the buffer on the blocking probability and throughput.
