  • The trend is that the wireless communication system, which has specific characteristics ; low cost & limitation for installation, has been developed more actively than the wire communication system. Therefore, the communication system has been changed from the wire system with an optical cable to the wireless system in the various field of life. In the railroad field, lots of researches on the wireless communication system for the safety of infrastructure and the convenience of passenger have been conducted. The WSN(Wireless Sensor Network), which means same concept with USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network), pursues the ubiquitous environment which means user can access network at anywhere and anytime. In this paper, the wireless communication technologies which are suitable for the WSN of subway station were investigated and the best solution of WSN was suggested.

  • Ambient backscatter communication has a drawback in which the transmission power is limited because the data is transmitted using the ambient RF signal. In order to improve transmission efficiency between transceiver, a channel estimator capable of estimating channel state at a receiver is needed. In this paper, we consider the K-means algorithm to improve the performance of the channel estimator based on EM algorithm. The simulation uses MSE as a performance parameter to verify the performance of the proposed channel estimator. The initial value setting through K-means shows improved performance compared to the channel estimation method using the general EM algorithm.

  • A portable electronic tongue (E-Tongue) system using an array of ion-selective electrode (ISE) and personal digital assistants (PDA) for recognizing and analyzing food and drink have been designed. By the employment of PDA, the complex algorithm such as fuzzy c-means algorithm (FCMA) could be used in E-Tongue, PUMA could iteratively solve the cluster centers of pre-determined standard patterns. And the membership between the standard patterns and unknown pattern could be analyzed easily by the present E-Tongue combined with PDA.

  • At present, multiple input multiple output radars offer accurate target detection and better target parameter estimation with higher resolution in high-speed wireless communication systems. This study focuses primarily on power allocation to improve the performance of radars owing to the sparsity of targets in the spatial velocity domain. First, the radars are clustered using the kernel fuzzy C-means algorithm. Next, cooperative and noncooperative clusters are extracted based on the distance measured using the kernel fuzzy C-means algorithm. The power is allocated to cooperative clusters using the Pareto optimality particle swarm optimization algorithm. In addition, the Nash equilibrium particle swarm optimization algorithm is used for allocating power in the noncooperative clusters. The process of allocating power to cooperative and noncooperative clusters reduces the overall transmission power of the radars. In the experimental section, the proposed method obtained the power consumption of 0.014 to 0.0119 at K = 2, M = 3 and K = 2, M = 3, which is better compared to the existing methodologies-generalized Nash game and cooperative and noncooperative game theory.

  • This research attempts to analyze communication effects of print ad having pictorial typography. 150 Questionnaires were distributed to respondents staying Daejeun City and 148 copies were retreated for five days from April 22nd to 26th, 2012. Frequency analysis, factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha for reliability analysis were utilized for data analysis with SPSS 12.0. For testing hypothesis, regression analysis was used. As result of testing hypothesis, 'informative, beneficial, creative, reliable' were partially significant to attitude towards print ad having pictorial typography. That means 'creative' and 'reliable' were insignificant, while 'informative' and 'beneficial' are significant. Variable of the most influencing on attitude towards advertising is 'informative.' 'Informative, beneficial, creative, and reliable' were partially significant to brand attitude, too. That means 'beneficial' and 'creative' were insignificant, while 'informative' and 'reliable' were significant. Variable of the most influencing on brand attitude was 'reliable.' Therefore, to enhance communication effect of print ad having pictorial typography, 'informative' and 'reliable' are most significant variables.

  • Massive data are continuously produced with a data rate of over several terabytes every day. These applications need effective clustering algorithms to achieve an overall high performance computation. In this paper, we propose ancestor as cluster center based approach to clustering, the K-means algorithm using ancestor. We modify the K-means algorithm. We present a clustering architecture and a clustering algorithm that minimize of I/Os and show a performance with excellent. In our experimental performance evaluation, we present that our algorithm can improve the I/O speed and the query processing time.

  • In this paper, we propose a method of measuring Fine dust in images using K-means and Sobel-mask based edge detection techniques using CCTV. The proposed algorithm collects images using a CCTV camera and designates an image range through a region of interest. When clustering is completed by applying the K-means algorithm, outline is detected through Sobel-mask, edge strength is measured, and the concentration of fine dust is determined based on the measured data. The proposed method extracts the contour of the mountain range using the characteristics of Sobel-mask, which has an advantage in diagonal measurement, and shows the difference in detection according to the concentration of fine dust as an experimental result.

  • The purpose of this study is to empirically examine the role of supplier relationships as a means of enhancement of quality. The model for this study consists of four groups of concepts - 1) goal of quality, as 2) measures of supplier relationships, supplier assistance and buyer supplier communication, 3) the level of automation and technology, as 4) measures of performance, reliability quality and performance quality. By statistical analysis, the results are as follows. First, the goal of quality positively influences the level of automation, technology, supplier assistance and supplier communication. Second, the level of technology has a positive effect on supplier assistance and supplier communication on the level of automation. Third, the level of automation and technology positively influence the reliability quality. Fourth, supplier assistance and buyer-supplier communication has a positive effect on the reliability and performance quality. These results reveal three paths of supplier relationships in systems for the enhancement of quality.
