In this paper, the 3-D shape description for the objects with the cone ridge and valley surfaces, and the corresponding threshold value selection for surface classification are considered. The existing method based on the mean and Gaussian curvatures(H and K) of differential geometries cannot properly describe cone primitives, which are some of the most common objects in the real world. Also the existing method for surface classification based on the sign values of H and K has Problems in practical applications. For this, cone surface shapes are classified cone ridges and cone valleys are derived from surfaces using the fact that H values are constant case of cylinder surfaces and variable for cone surfaces, respectively. Also threshold value selection for surface classification from a statistical point of view is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed methods are verified through experiments.

Because of the excellent thermal and chemical properties of mullite and cordierite as the stable oxide ceramic materials, they were widely used from engineering materials to electronic materials. Notwithstanding of their high demands, mullite was synthesised because it is not existed in nature. It is also difficult to produce cordierite of fine powder with high purity due to the narrow range of synthetic temperature. Mullite was synthesised by solid state reaction. However, synthesized mullite has been inhomogeneous. Because of the facts, various synthetic methods have been studied so far including sol-gel method. The purpose of this study is to synthesis mullite and cordierite of fine powder with high purity at the lower temperature by solution-polymerization route using PVA as a polymer carrier, which is an economical method by using low cost materials. As a result, mullite and cordierite were produced with mono crystal phase at 1200$^{\circ}C$ and 1250$^{\circ}C$, respectively, and their surface area over 20 ㎡/g.

In this paper, we described the unknown parameter identification using Dual Extended Kalman Filter for precise control of 2-link manipulator. 2-link manipulator has highly non-linear characteristic with changed parameter thought tasks. The parameter kinds of mass and inertia of system is important to handle with the manipulator robustly. To solve the control problem by estimating the state and unknown parameters of the system through the proposed method. In order to verify the performance of proposed method, we simulate the implementation using Matlab and compare with results of RLS algorithm. At the results, proposed method has a better performance than those of RLS and verify the estimation performance in the parameter estimation.

The wireless communication based on LDPC and adaptive spatial-subcarrier coded modulation using MQAM for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless transmission by using instantaneous channel state information and employing multiple antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver. Adaptive coded modulation is a promising idea for bandwidth-efficient transmission on time-varying, narrowband wireless channels. On power limited Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channels, low density parity check (LDPC) codes are a class of error control codes which have demonstrated impressive error correcting qualities, under some conditions performing even better than turbo codes. The paper demonstrates OFDM with LDPC and adaptive modulation applied to Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system. An optimization algorithm to obtain a bit and power allocation for each subcarrier assuming instantaneous channel knowledge is used. The experimental results are shown the potential of our proposed system.

Traditional commerce has transformed into electronic commerce, then, mobile commerce again plays a critical role in diversifying different types of business. Although the fast changing of mobile commerce as an emerging channel of communication in business, not many studies address why consumers stay on mobile commerce and how they are influenced and influence other consumers. In this study, we investigate the impact of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation on customers' satisfaction and its results. We adopt the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM), value-satisfaction theories, and other motivation studies in developing theoretical framework. We then synthesize these theoretical approaches to conceptualize mobile customers' behavior. Specifically, we postulate cognitive beliefs that influence customers' satisfaction with mobile commerce, and, in turn, significantly contribute to the spread of positive word-of-mouth. The current research model and its results could provide a rigorous basis for understanding customers' behavior in wireless contexts.

As modern megalopolises become more complex and huge, convenience and safety of citizens are main components for a welfare state. In order to make safe society, telemetrics technology, which remotely measures the information of target system using electronic devices, is an essential component. In general, telemetrics technology consists of USN (ubiquitous sensor network) based on a wireless network, smart sensor, and SoC (system on chip). In the smart sensor technology, the following two problems should be overcome. Firstly, because it is very difficult for transducer manufacturers to develop smart sensors that support all the existing network protocols, the smart sensor must be independent of the type of networking protocols. Secondly, smart sensors should be modular so that a faulty sensor element can be replaced without replacing healthy communication element. To solve these problems, this paper investigates the feasibility of an IEEE 1451 based ZigBee smart sensor system. More specifically, a smart sensor for large network coverage has been developed using ZigBee for active telemetrics.

This study has examined susceptibility of LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) due to Front-Door Coupling under Narrow-Band high power electromagnetic wave. M/DFR(Malfunction/Destruction Failure Rate) was measured to investigate the diagnostic of IC test. In addition, decapsulation analysis was used to understand the inside of the chip state in LNA devices. The experiments is employed as an open-ended waveguide to study the destruction effects of LNA using a 2.45 GHz Magnetron as a high power electromagnetic wave. The susceptibility level of LNA was assessed by electric field strength, and its failure modes were observed. The malfunction of LNA device has showed as the type of self-reset and power-reset. The electric field strength of malfunction threshold is 524 V/m and 1150 V/m respectively. Also, he electric field of destruction threshold is 1530 V/m. Three types of damaged LNA were observed by decapsulation analysis: component, onchipwire, and bondwire destruction. Based on these results, the susceptibility of the LNA can be applied to a database to help elucidate the effects of microwaves on electronic equipment.

In this paper, we characterise the joint interference alignment and power allocation strategies for a K-user multicell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian interference channel. We consider a MIMO interference channel with a blind interference alignment through staggered antenna switching on the receiver. We explore the power allocation and the feasibility condition for cooperative cell-edge (CE) mobile users (MUs) by assuming that the channel state information is unknown. The new insight behind the transmission strategy of the proposed scheme is premeditated (randomly generated transmission strategy) and partial cooperative CE MUs, where the transmitter is equipped with a conventional antenna, the receiver is equipped with a reconfigurable multimode antenna (staggered antenna switching pattern), and the receiver switches between preset T modes. Our proposed scheme assists and aligns the desired and interference signals to cancel the common interference signals, since the received signal must have a corresponding independent signal subspace. The sum capacity for a K-user multicell MIMO Gaussian interference channel with reconfigurable multimode antennas is completely characterised.

Spectrum sensing, the key technology of the cognitive radio networks, is used by a secondary user to determine the frequency state of a primary user. The energy detection in the spectrum sensing determines the presence or absence of a primary user according to the intensity of the allocated channel signal. Since this technique simply uses the strength of the signal for spectrum sensing, it is difficult to detect the signal of a primary user in the low SNR band. In this paper, we propose a way to combine spectrum sensing and support vector machine using wavelet packet decomposition to overcome performance degradation in low SNR band. In our proposed scheme, the sensing signals were extracted by wavelet packet decomposition and then used as training data and test data for support vector machine. The simulation results of the proposed scheme are compared with the energy detection using the AUC of the ROC curve and the accuracy according to the SNR band. With simulation results, we demonstrate that the proposed scheme show better determining performance than one of energy detection in the low SNR band.
