전파를 이용하는 지상에서의 무선 센서 네트워크와 달리 수중에서는 음파를 이용하여 통신을 한다. 음파를 이용한 수중 센서 네트워크에서 긴 전파지연과 제한된 대역폭을 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 수중 센서 네트워크에서 긴 전파 지연으로 노드가 전송한 패킷(Packet)은 빈번히 충돌한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 무선 네트워크에서 이용되는 백오프(Back-off) 기법이 일반적으로 이용된다. 그러나 노드의 배치에 따라 고정된 슬롯시간(Slot-time)은 불필요한 지연시간을 발생시켜 네트워크의 성능을 저하 시킨다. 본 논문에서는 슬롯시간의 동적인 설정 기법을 제안하고 기존에 연구된 MAC 프로토콜에 적용하였다. 마지막으로 기존의 MAC 프로토콜과 제안된 기법을 적용한 MAC 프로토콜의 성능을 비교하고, 그 결과 기존 MAC 프로토콜에 비하여 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인 하였다.

IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN standard specifies the air interface of fixed point-to-multipoint broadband wireless access systems providing multiple service. Among the service classes supported by the wireless MAN, the BE class is ranked on the lowest position in priority and is usually deployed by multicast and broadcast polling MAC scheme. In provisioning such BE service, the delay performance is influenced by a number of components including restrictions on resource request per SS, the number of request opportunities in upward frame, scheduling requests at BS, and contention resolution method. As candidate components of MAC function for BE service, we propose single and multiple request schemes (for controling the number of requests per SS), exhaustive and limited request schemes (for regulating the amount of grant per request) and FCFS, H-SMF, pure SMF, SS-wise Round Robin, and pure Round Robin (for scheduling requests at BS). Then, we construct MAC schemes by combining the above components and evaluate the delay performance exhibited by each MAC scheme using a simulation method. From numerical results, we investigate the effect of MAC components on average delay and delay variation and observe the dissonance on collision reduction in a resource - limited environment.

In this study, we set up an analytical method that can be used for rapid and accurate determination of representative isoquinoline alkaloids in medicinal plants using UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF MS (ultra pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry). The compounds were eluted on a C18 column with 0.1 % formic acid and acetonitrile, and separated with good resolution within 13 min. Each of the separated components was characterized by precursor ions (generated by ESI-Q-TOF) and fragment ions (produced by collision-induced dissociation, CID), which were used as a reliable database. We also performed method validation: analytes showed excellent linearity ($R^2$, 0.9971-0.9996), LOD (5-25 ng/mL), LOQ (17-82 ng/mL), accuracy (91.6-97.4 %) as well as intra- and inter-day precisions (RSD, 1.8-3.2 %). In the analysis of Chelidonium majus L., magnoflorine, coptisine, sanguinarine, berberine and palmatine were detected by matching retention times and characteristic fragment ion patterns of reference standards. We also confirmed that, among the quantified components, coptisine was present in the highest quantity. Furthermore, alkaloid profiling was carried out by analyzing the fragment ion patterns corresponding to peaks of unknown components. In this manner, protopine, chelidonine, stylopine, dihydroberberine, canadine, and nitidine were tentatively identified. We also proposed the molecular structure of the fragment ions that appear in the mass spectrum. Therefore, we concluded that our suggested method for the determination of major isoquinoline alkaloids by UPLC-Q-TOF can be useful not only for quality control, but also for rapid and accurate investigation of phytochemical constituents of medicinal plants.

Since 802.11 wireless LANs are so widely used, it has become common for numerous access points (APs) to overlap in a region, where most of those APs are managed individually without any coordinated control. This pattern of wireless LAN usage is called the private OBSS (Overlapping Basic Service Set) environment in this paper. Due to frame collisions across BSSs, each BSS in the private OBSS environment suffers severe performance degradation. This study approaches the problem from the perspective of congestion control rather than noise or collision resolution. The retry limit, one of the 802.11 attributes, could be used for traffic control in conjunction with TCP. Reducing the retry limit causes early discard of a frame, and it has a similar effect of random early drops at a router, well known in the research area of congestion control. It makes the shared link less crowded with frames, and then the benefit of fewer collisions surpasses the penalty of less strict error recovery. As a result, the network-wide performance improves and so does the performance of each BSS eventually. Reducing the retry limit also has positive effects of merging TCP ACKs and reducing HOL-like blocking time at the AP. Extensive experiments have validated the idea that in the OBSS environment, reducing the retry limit provides better performance, which is contrary to the common wisdom. Since our strategy is basically to sacrifice error recovery for congestion control, it could yield side-effects in an environment where the cost of error recovery is high. Therefore, to be useful in general network and traffic environments, adaptability is required. To prove the feasibility of the adaptive scheme, a simple method to dynamically adjust the value of the retry limit has been proposed. Experiments have shown that this approach could provide comparable performance in unfriendly environments.

In order to overcome the image quality limitations of the conventional C-arm, a flat panel detector (FPD) is used to enhance spatial resolution, detective quantum efficiency, frame rate, and dynamic range. Three-dimensional (3D) visualized information can be obtained from C-arm computed tomography (CT) equipped with an FPD, which can reduce patient discomfort and provide various medical information to health care providers by conducting procedures in the interventional procedure room without moving the patient to the CT scan room. Unlike a conventional C-arm device, a C-arm CT requires different basic safety and essential performance evaluation criteria; therefore, in this study, basic safety and essential performance evaluation criteria to protect patients, medical staff, and radiologists were derived based on International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) standards in Korea, and the rules on the installation and operation of special medical equipment in Korea. As a result of the study, six basic safety evaluation criteria related to electrical and mechanical radiation safety (leakage current, collision protection, emergency stopping device, overheating, recovery management, and ingress of water or particulate matter into medical electrical (ME) equipment and ME systems: footswitches) and 14 essential performance evaluation criteria (accuracy of tube voltage, accuracy of tube current, accuracy of loading time, accuracy of current time product, reproducibility of radiation output, linearity and consistency in radiography, half layer value in X-ray equipment, focal size and collimator, relationship between X-ray field and image reception area, consistency of light irradiation versus X-ray irradiation, performance of the mechanical device, focal spot to skin distance accuracy, image quality evaluation, and technical characteristic of cone-beam computed tomography) were selected for a total of 20 criteria.

The past few decades have witnessed the development of very robust technique, known as magneto-optical trap(MOT), for cooling and trapping of neutral atoms using lasers and magnetic fields. This technique can easily produce cooled atoms to a temperature range of nano-kelvin $s^{(1)}$ . These laser cooled and trapped atoms have found applications in various fields, such as ultrahigh resolution spectroscopy, precision atomic clocks, very cold atomic collision physics, Bose-Einstein Condensation, the Atom laser, etc. Particularly, a few isolated atoms of very low temperature are needed in the cavity QED studies in the optical regime. One can obtain such atoms from a MOT using the atomic fountain technique. The widely used technique for atomic fountain is, first to cool and trap the neutral atoms in MOT. And then launch them in the vertical (1, 1, 1) direction with respect to cooling beams, using moving molasses technique. Recently, this technique combined with the cavity-QED has opened an active area of basic research. This way atoms can be strongly coupled to the optical radiation in the cavity and leads to various new effects. Trapping of single atom after separating it from MOT in the high Q-optical cavity is actively initiated presentl $y^{(2.3)}$. This will help to sharpen our understanding of atom-photon interaction at quantum level and may lead to the development of single-atom laser. Our efforts to develop an $^{85}$ Rb-atomic fountain is in progress. (omitted)

The ASKAP-EMU survey is a deep wide-field radio continuum survey designed to cover the entire southern sky and a significant fraction of the northern sky up to +30°. Here, we report a discovery of a radio relic in the merging cluster SPT-CL J2023-5535 at z=0.23 from the ASKAP-EMU pilot 300 square degree survey (800-1088 MHz). The deep high-resolution data reveal a ~2 Mpc-scale radio halo elongated in the east-west direction, coincident with the intracluster gas. The radio relic is located at the western edge of this radio halo stretched ~0.5 Mpc in the north-south orientation. The integrated spectral index of the radio relic within the narrow bandwidth is α1088MHz800MHz = -0.76 ± 0.06. Our weak-lensing analysis shows that the system is massive (M200 = 1.04 ± 0.36 × 1015M⊙) and composed of at least three subclusters. We suggest a scenario, wherein the radio features arise from the collision between the eastern and middle subclusters. Furthermore, the direct link between the local AGN and the relic along with the discontinuities in X-ray observation hint us that we are looking at the site of re-acceleration.

이 논문은 국제법상 우주폐기물감축 연성법(soft law)의 역할에 관한 것으로 경성법(hard law)인 우주관련조약들인 1967년 우주조약, 1968년 구조협정, 1972년 책임협약, 1975년 등록협약, 1979년 달조약 등 5개 조약은 우주폐기물을 직접적으로 다루는 조약이 아니기 때문에 제외하였다. 특히 1967년 우주조약은 제 9조에서 '유해한 오염'이나 '유해한 방해', '환경의 불리한 변화'라는 용어만 사용할 뿐 이것들에 대한 정의가 없으며, 1979년 달조약 역시 우주조약과 마찬가지로 제7조에 '유해한 오염', '불리한 변화', '환경의 방해', '유해한 영향' 등과 같은 중요한 개념에 대한 정의를 내리지 못하고 있다. 실제로 1978년 "Cosmos 954 사건"에서 가해국인 소련과 피해국이 캐나다가 1967년 우주조약과 1972년 책임협약의 당사국임에도 불구하고 우주관련조약을 원용하지 않고 의정서를 체결하여 해결한 점이 조약의 존재에 대한 의구심을 갖게 하였다. 국가들이 국제환경법이나 국제경제법 분야에서 조약체결이나 보충의정서 체결이 힘든 경우 연성법을 채택하여 문제를 해결하던 방식이 이제는 우주법에도 적용되고 있다. 우주폐기물감축에 관한 연성법으로는 'IADC의 가이드라인', '우주폐기물감축 가이드라인', 우주활동국제행동규범, '우주활동의 장기지속가능성을 위한 가이드라인' 등을 들 수 있다. 많은 학자들이 이러한 결의 속에 나타난 몇 개의 원칙들은 국제관습법을 표명하고 있다고 주장한다. 예를 들어 "우주에서의 핵원료사용에 관한 원칙(NPS원칙)"에서 우주에서의 NPS의 통지나 사용, 책임에 관한 규칙들은 법의 일반적 성격에 대한 기초를 형성하는 것으로 간주되는 '근본적으로 규범창설적 성격'(a fundamentally norm-creating character)을 지닌 것으로 볼 수 있는데, 국가관행이 이를 더욱 증명해주고 있다. 또한 이러한 연성법은 기존의 국제관습법이 성문화되는 과정에서 정확성을 제공하여 도움을 주거나 새로운 국제관습법보다 선행하여 이들이 형성되는데 도움을 주기도 한다. 1974년 11월 12일 UN총회가 총회의 '선언'(declaration)과 '결의'(resolution)는 국제법의 발전에 반영될 수 있는 한 방법으로서 국제사법재판소(ICJ)에 의해서 고려되어야 한다고 한 권고는 그런 의미에서 매우 중요하다. 그러나 E. R. C, van Bogaert도 지적한 바와 같이 이러한 결의나 권고, 가이드라인 등 연성법에 관한 법적가치는 과장되어서는 안 되고, 총회는 권고를 표결할 권한을 갖고 있지만 강제적인 법적규칙을 부과하는 것은 불가능하다. 이러한 권고는 컨센서스(consensus)의 표명으로 보는 것이 가능 하지만 아직 불완전한 법이라는 것이다. 법적 견지로 본다면 연성법은 실제 조약과 동일시하는 것은 불가능하다. 따라서 우주폐기물 감축에 관한 연성법은 엄밀하게 말해서 법적 구속력은 없다. 다시 말해서 이것들은 국가들을 구속하는 법문서는 아니며, 현존하는 우주법에 관한 조약들의 관점에서 볼 때는 일종의 권고의 형태로써 우주관련조약들의 보충적 역할을 할 수 있을 뿐이라는 것이다. 그러므로 연성법의 한계를 넘어서기 위해서는 앞으로 우주폐기물감축 연성법을 바탕으로 우주법의 산실인 UN COPOUS가 법적 구속력 있는 조치를 마련할 것으로 기대해 본다.

We present data from the Mesozoic Keumkang, Palbong, and Baekhwa granites in Garorim Bay, in the southwestern part of the Gyeonggi massif, South Korea. Using major and trace element concentrations, Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic compositions, and sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) zircon U-Pb ages, we aim to constrain the petrogenesis of the granites and explain their origin within a broader regional geological context. SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages of $232.8{\pm}3.2$, $175.9{\pm}1.2$, and $176.8{\pm}9.8$ Ma were obtained from the Keumkang, Palbong and Baekhwa granites, respectively. The Late Triassic Keumkang granites belong to the shoshonite series and show an overall enrichment in large ion lithophile elements (LILE), a depletion in high field strength elements (HFSE) relative to primitive mantle, compared with neighboring elements in the primitive mantle-normalized incompatible trace element diagram with notable high Ba and Sr contents, and negligible Eu anomalies. The Keumkang granites are typified by highly radiogenic Sr and unradiogenic Nd and Pb isotopic compositions: $(^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr)_i=0.70931-0.70959$, $(^{143}Nd/^{144}Nd)_i=0.511472-0.511484$ [$({\varepsilon}_{Nd})_i=-17.0$ to -16.7], and $(^{206}Pb/^{204}Pb)=17.26-17.27$. The Middle Jurassic Palbong and Baekhwa granites belong to the medium- to high-K calc-alkaline series, and show LILE enrichment and HFSE depletion similar to the Keumkang granites, but exhibit significant negative anomalies in Ba, Sr, and Eu. Furthermore, they have elevated Y and Yb contents at any given $SiO_2$ content compared with other Jurassic granitoids from the Gyeonggi massif. The Palbong and Baekhwa granites have slightly less radiogenic Sr and more radiogenic Nd and Pb isotopic compositions [$(^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr)_i=0.70396-0.70908$, $(^{143}Nd/^{144}Nd)_i=0.511622-0.511660$, $({\varepsilon}_{Nd})_i=-15.4$ to -14.7, $(^{206}Pb/^{204}Pb)=17.56-17.76$] relative to the Keumkang granites. The Keumkang granites are considered to have formed in a post-collisional environment following the Permo-Triassic Songrim orogeny that records continent-continent collision between the North and South China blocks, and may have formed by fractional crystallization of metasomatized lithospheric mantle-derived mafic melts. The Palbong and Baekhwa granites may have been produced from a gabbroic assemblage at pressures of less than ~15 kbar, associated with subduction of the paleo-Pacific (Izanagi) plate at the Eurasian continental margin. Elevated ${\varepsilon}_{Nd}(t)$ values in the granitoids from the southwestern part of the Gyeonggi massif relative to those of the central and northern parts, together with the comparatively shallow depth of origin, imply the presence of an exotic block in the Korean lithosphere.
