In this paper, we address the issue of joint detection schemes for uplink cellular system when base station cooperation is possible for multi-user detection in multi-cell scenario. The ZF, ML, MMSE and SIC detection are analyzed and evaluated as a conventional scheme. ML attains the optimal performance but the complexity increases exponentially, ZF/MMSE have simple structure but have poor detection performance and SIC has better performance but it has large complexity and potential of the error propagation. However, they need the increased decoder complexity as the number of iteration is increased. We propose a new joint ML and ZF/MMSE detection scheme, which combines the partial ML decoding and ZF/MMSE detection, in order to decrease the decoder complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme attains same or a little bit better BER performance and expect reduced decoder complexity, specially in the case of large number of Base Station are cooperated each other.

Telemetry system is a communication system that measures and transmits various signals in the aircraft to the ground for collecting and monitoring flight data during the development of unmanned air vehicle and satellite launch vehicles. With the recent development of wireless communication technology, it is becoming important to apply encryption of telemetry system to prepare with security threats that may occur during flight data transmission. In this paper, we suggested and implemented the application method of ARIA-256, Korean standard encryption algorithm, to apply encryption to telemetry system. In consideration of the block error propagation and the telemetry frame characteristics, frame is encrypted using the CTR mode and can apply the Reed-solomon codes recommended by CCSDS. ARIA algorithm and cipher frame are implemented in FPGA, and simulation and hardware verification system confirmed continuous frames encryption.

In this paper, we propose Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks(FPNN) based on Polynomial Neural Networks(PNN) and Fuzzy Neural Networks(FNN) for model identification of complex and nonlinear systems. The proposed FPNN is generated from the mutually combined structure of both FNN and PNN. The one and the other are considered as the premise part and consequence part of FPNN structure respectively. As the consequence part of FPNN, PNN is based on Group Method of Data Handling(GMDH) method and its structure is similar to Neural Networks. But the structure of PNN is not fixed like in conventional Neural Networks and self-organizing networks that can be generated. FPNN is available effectively for multi-input variables and high-order polynomial according to the combination of FNN with PNN. Accordingly it is possible to consider the nonlinearity characteristics of process and to get better output performance with superb predictive ability. As the premise part of FPNN, FNN uses both the simplified fuzzy inference as fuzzy inference method and error back-propagation algorithm as learning rule. The parameters such as parameters of membership functions, learning rates and momentum coefficients are adjusted using genetic algorithms. And we use two kinds of FNN structure according to the division method of fuzzy space of input variables. One is basic FNN structure and uses fuzzy input space divided by each separated input variable, the other is modified FNN structure and uses fuzzy input space divided by mutually combined input variables. In order to evaluate the performance of proposed models, we use the nonlinear function and traffic route choice process. The results show that the proposed FPNN can produce the model with higher accuracy and more robustness than any other method presented previously. And also performance index related to the approximation and prediction capabilities of model is evaluated and discussed.

The degradation of image quality by block loss is more serious in fractal coded images with the error propagation due to mapping from the lost blocks than in DCT coded images. Therefore. a new algorithm is presented for recovering the blocks lost in the transmission through the lossy network as A TM network of the images coded by Jacquins fractal coding. Jacquins fractal code is divided into two layers of header code and main code according to its importance. The key technique of the proposed BLRA (block loss recovery algorithm) is a fractal extrapolation that estimates the lost pixels by using the contractive mapping parameters of the neighboring range blocks whose characteristics are similar to a lost block. The proposed BLRA is applied to the lost blocks in the iteration of decoding. Some experimental results show the proposed BLRA yields excellent performance in PSNR as well as subjective quality.

This paper presents a design method of the neural network-based controller using an indirect adaptive control method to deal with an intelligent control for chaotic nonlinear systems. The proposed control method includes the identification and control Process for chaotic nonlinear systems. The identification process for chaotic nonlinear systems is an off-line process which utilizes the serial-parallel structure of multilayer neural networks and simple state space neural networks. The control process is an on-line process which uses the trained neural networks as the system model. An error back-propagation method was used for training of identification and control for chaotic nonlinear systems. The performance of the proposed neural network controller was evaluated by application to the Duffing equation and the Lorenz equation, and the proposed controller was compared with other neural network-based controllers by computer simulations.

Artificial neural network has been used for damage assessment by many researchers, but there are still some barriers that must be overcome to improve its accuracy and efficiency. The major problems associated with the conventional artificial neural network, especially the Back Propagation Neural Network(BPNN), are on the need of many training patterns and on the ambiguous relationship between neural network architecture and the convergence of solution. Therefore, the number of hidden layers and nodes in one hidden layer would be determined by trial and error. Also, it takes a lot of time to prepare many training patterns and to determine the optimum architecture of neural network. To overcome these drawbacks, the PNN can be used as a pattern classifier. In this paper, the PNN is used numerically to detect damage in a plate girder railway bridge. Also, the comparison between mode shapes and natural frequencies of the structure is investigated to select the appropriate training pattern for the damage detection in the railway bridge.

A loose part monitoring system is used to detect unexpected loose parts in a reactor coolant system in a nuclear power plant. It is still necessary to develop a new methodology for the localization and mass estimation of loose parts owing to the high estimation error of conventional methods. In addition, model-based diagnostics recently emphasized the importance of a model describing the behavior of a mechanical system or component. The purpose of this study is to propose a new localization and mass-estimation method based on finite element analysis (FEA) and optimization technique. First, an FEA model to simulate the propagation behavior of the bending wave generated by a metal sphere impact is validated by performing an impact test and a corresponding FEA and optimization for a downsized steam-generator structure. Second, a novel methodology based on FEA and optimization technique was proposed to estimate the impact location and mass of a loose part at the same time. The usefulness of the methodology was then validated through a series of FEAs and some blind tests. A new feature vector, the cross-correlation function, was also proposed to predict the impact location and mass of a loose part, and its usefulness was then validated. It is expected that the proposed methodology can be utilized in model-based diagnostics for the estimation of impact parameters such as the mass, velocity, and impact location of a loose part. In addition, the FEA-based model can be used to optimize the sensor position to improve the collected data quality in the site of nuclear power plants.

The Car License Plate Recognition(: CLPR) is required in searching the hit-and-run car, measuring the traffic density, investigating the traffic accidents as well as in pursuing vehicle crimes according to the increasing in number of vehicles. The captured images on the real environment of the CLPR is contaminated not only by snow and rain, illumination changes, but also by the geometrical distortion due to the pose changes between camera and car at the moment of image capturing. We propose homographic transformation and intensity histogram of vertical image projection so as to transform the distorted input to the original image and cluster the character and number, respectively. Especially, in this paper, the Multilayer Perceptron Algorithm(: MLP) in the CLPR is used to not only recognize the charcters and car license plate, but also determine the optimized ratio among the number of input, hidden and output layers by the real experimental result.

In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed to reduce the blocking artifacts of block-based coded images by using block classification and MLP. In the proposed algorithm, we classify the block into four classes based on a characteristic of DCT coefficients. And then, according to the class information of neighborhood block, adaptive neural network filter is performed in horizontal and vertical block boundary. That is, for smooth region, horizontal edge region, vertical edge region, and complex region, we use a different two-layer neural network filter to remove blocking artifacts. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm gives better results than the conventional algorithms both subjectively and objectively.
