In this paper, a secure multilevel quadrature amplitude modulation (MQAM) scheme is proposed for the physical layer security (PLS) of the wireless communications. In the proposed scheme, each transmitted symbol's signal constellation (SC) is hopping with the control of two unique factors: amplitude distortion (AD) factor and phase hopping (PH) factor. With unknown the two factors, the eavesdropper cannot extract effective information from the received signal. We first introduce a security metric, referred to as secrecy gain, and drive a lower bound on the gain that the secrecy capacity can be improved. Then, we investigate the relationship among the secrecy gain, the signal to noise power ratios (SNRs) of the main and wiretap channels, and the secrecy capacity. Next, we analyze the security of the proposed scheme, and the results indicate that the secrecy capacity is improved by our scheme. Specifically, a positive secrecy capacity is always obtained, whether the quality of the main channel is better than that of the wiretap channel or not. Finally, the numerical results are provided to prove the analytical work, which further suggests the security of the proposed scheme.

본 논문에서는 차세대 이동 멀티미디어 위성통신에 효율적으로 사용될 수 있는 시공간 블록 부호화(Space-Time Block Coding ;STBC) 방식을 제시하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 STBC 방식은 3개의 송신 안테나로부터 송신되는 신호의 부호화율이 1인 동시에 복호 과정에 필요한 채널 행렬이 완전한 직교성을 가짐으로써 복호 과정을 간단히 하고, 수신단에서 기존의 방식보다 더 큰 다이버시티 이득을 기대할 수 있다. 성능 시뮬레이션 결과는 제시하는 방식이 몇 가지 일반적인 STBC 기술 적용 사례보다 BER 성능이 우수하다는 것을 확인하고 실제 위성에서 보내는 신호와 지상의 중계기로부터의 신호를 구분하여 각각의 송신 전력을 달리함에 따라 성능이 어떻게 변하는지 알아본다.

Multi-user multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) system has attracted the 4^th generation wireless network as one of core technique for performance enrichment. In this system rate control is a challenging problem and another problem is optimization. Proper scheduling can resolve these problems by deciding which set of user and at which rate the users send their data. This paper proposes a new multi-parameter based scheduling (MPS) for downlink multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system under space-time block coding (STBC) transmissions. Goal of this MPS scheme is to offer improved link level performance in terms of a low average bit error rate (BER), high packet delivery ratio (PDR) with improved resource utilization and service fairness among the user. This scheme allows the set of users to send data based on their channel quality and their demand rates. Simulation compares the MPS performance with other scheduling scheme such as fair scheduling (FS), normalized priority scheduling (NPS) and threshold based fair scheduling (TFS). The results obtained prove that MPS has significant improvement in average BER performance with improved resource utilization and fairness as compared to the other scheduling scheme.

The paper is concerned with an improved scheme for application of the blank holding force in order to take account of the thickness distribution in the sheet material of the flange region. The scheme incorporates with a modified membrane finite element method for planar anisotropic materials. The new scheme proposed two coefficients α and βto calculate the compressive stress in the sheet metal due to the blank holding force, which should be determined properly for accurate analysis. The effect of αand βon the blank holding force distribution and the deformed shape is investigated with simulation of rectangular cup deep drawing processes by changing parameter values.

The effects of an auxiliary address pulse driving scheme, in which an auxiliary short pulse was applied to the address electrode during a sustain-period, was examined under the various image patterns of the 42-inch WVGA ac-PDP. When the auxiliary address pulse driving scheme was applied, the luminance of the red, green and blue cells were measured respectively. The luminance, luminous efficiency and current were measured under the full-white pattern of the 42-inch ac-PDP. As a result, the luminance of blue cell was improved approximately by 17 %, whereas the luminous efficiency of the full-white pattern was improved approximately by 34 % without a misfiring discharge in comparison with conventional driving scheme.

The Probability Hypothesis Density (PHD) filter is a suboptimal approximation and tractable alternative to the multi-target Bayesian filter based on random finite sets. However, the PHD filter fails to track newborn targets when the target birth intensity is unknown prior to tracking. In this paper, a dual detection-guided newborn target intensity PHD algorithm is developed to solve the problem, where two schemes, namely, a newborn target intensity estimation scheme and improved measurement-driven scheme, are proposed. First, the newborn target intensity estimation scheme, consisting of the Dirichlet distribution with the negative exponent parameter and target velocity feature, is used to recursively estimate the target birth intensity. Then, an improved measurement-driven scheme is introduced to reduce the errors of the estimated number of targets and computational load. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve good performance in terms of target states, target number and computational load when the newborn target intensity is not predefined in multi-target tracking systems.

사용자 인증 스킴은 개방된 통신환경에서 원격지에 있는 사용자가 서버에 로긴할 때 정당한 사용자 인지를 확인하는 것이다. 2005년 Liao등은 스마트 카드를 이용해서 사용자의 익명성을 보장하는 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다. 최근 Yoon등은 Liao가 제안한 사용자 인증 스킴의 안전성 분석을 수행한 후 그 스킴에 존재하는 결점을 보완하는 향상된 스킴을 제안하였다. 그러나 안타깝게도 그들이 제안한 스킴은 사용자가 서버를 인증하는 방식과 서버가 사용자를 인증 방식을 모두 수행할 수 없고 패스워드의 안전성에도 문제점이 존재한다. 이러한 문제점을 이 논문에서는 서버 가장 공격, 사용자 가장 공격, 오프라인 사전공격을 수행하여 지적하였다. 아울러 본 논문에서는 Yoon등이 제안한 논문의 취약점을 제거하여 보다 안전한 사용자 인증 스킴을 제안하였다.

This paper proposes a point of common coupling (PCC) voltage compensation method for islanding microgrids using an improved power sharing control scheme among distributed generators (DGs) without communication. The PCC voltage compensation algorithm is implemented in the droop control scheme to reduce the PCC voltage deviation produced by the droop controller itself and the voltage drop on the line impedance. The control scheme of each individual DG unit is designed to use only locally measured feedback variables and an obtained line impedance to calculate the PCC voltage. Therefore, traditional voltage measurement devices installed at the PCC as well as communication between the PCC and the DGs are not required. The proposed control scheme can maintain the PCC voltage amplitude within an allowed range even to some extent assuming inaccurate line impedance parameters. In addition, it can achieve proper power sharing in islanding microgrids. Experimental results obtained under accurate and inaccurate line impedances are presented to show the performance of the proposed control scheme in islanding microgrids.
