동물은 그들의 필요와 외부 자극, 그리고 주변 환경에 반응하면서 특정한 행동과 이동 패턴을 보이며, 생활하면서 대부분의 시간을 보내는 일정한 영역인 행동권(home range)을 가진다. 행동권은 종의 존속과 보전에 매우 중요한 영역이라는 점에 기반하여 해외에서는 행동권 추정 방법론 개발 및 정책 반영이 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 원격 추적 기술의 발전으로 인해 좌표간 시간 간격이 줄어들며 정밀해진 동물 추적 데이터는 기존 행동권 방법론에 한계점을 드러냈으며, 이를 보완하기 위하여 다양한 새로운 방법론이 개발되었다. 하지만, 국내 행동권 연구는 아직 더딘 편이며 새로이 개발된 방법론 도입도 전혀 이루어지지 않고 있는 상태이다. 본 연구는 동물 행동권의 더욱 정확한 추정을 목적으로 꾸준하게 개발되어 온 해외의 방법론들을 정리 및 소개하여 국내 도입을 촉진하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 먼저 크게 기하학적 그리고 통계적 추정 방법론으로 나눈 후 좌표들이 독립일 때와 자기상관성이 존재할 때의 경우로 나누어 총 7가지의 행동권 추정 방법론을 비교 및 고찰하였다. 실제 전남 신안군 불무기도에 번식하는 괭이갈매기(Larus Crassirostris)의 6월 한 달간 GPS 위치 추적 정보를 사용해 본 연구에서 소개한 방법론을 적용하여 행동권을 도출하였다. 행동권 결과를 비교분석 함으로써 각 방법론의 특징 및 한계점을 논의하였으며, 향후 동물 행동권을 분석하고자 하는 연구자가 본인이 가지고 있는 데이터 특성과 분석 목적에 알맞는 방법론을 선택할 수 있도록 행동권 분석 방법론 선택 의사결정 가이드라인을 제시하였다.

In this paper we proposed an unsupervised algorithm to estimate the reverberation time (RT) directly from the reverberant speech signal. For estimation process we use maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) which is a very well-known and state of the art method for estimation in the field of signal processing. All existing RT estimation methods are based on the decay rate distribution. The decay rate can be obtained either from the energy envelop decay curve analysis of noise source when it is switch off or from decay curve of impulse response of an enclosure. The analysis of a pre-existing method of reverberation time estimation is the foundation of the proposed method. In one of the state of the art method, the reverberation decay is modeled as a Laplacian distribution. In this paper, the proposed method models the reverberation decay as a Gamma distribution along with the unification of an effective technique for spotting free decay in reverberant speech. Maximum likelihood estimation technique is then used to estimate the RT from the free decays. The method was motivated by our observation that the RT of a reverberant signal when falls in specific range, then the decay rate of the signal follows Gamma distribution. Experiments are carried out on different reverberant speech signal to measure the accuracy of the suggested method. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method performs better and the accuracy is high in comparison to the state of the art method.

본 논문에서는 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing: OFDM) 시스템에서 주기도표를 이용한 새로운 주파수 옵셋 추정 기법을 제안하였다. 기존 Ren 기법에서는 잡음이 존재하는 환경에서 실제 주파수 옵셋과 정수 주파수 옵셋 추정치의 차이가 Ren 기법의 소수 및 나머지 주파수 옵셋 추정 단계에서 추정할 수 있는 범위보다 큰 경우가 자주 존재하여, 기법의 성능을 떨어뜨리는 문제점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 Ren 기법의 소수 주파수 옵셋 추정 단계에서의 보상 범위보다 더 넓은 범위를 보상하는 새로운 주파수 옵셋 추정 기법을 제안하였다. 제안한 주파수 옵셋 추정 기법은 Ren 기법의 소수 주파수 옵셋 추정 단계보다 넓은 추정 범위를 갖기 때문에, 잡음이 있는 환경에서 Ren 기법이 전혀 보상할 수 없었던 주파수 옵셋과 정수 주파수 옵셋 추정치의 차이를 보상할 수 있다. 모의실험 결과, 전체 주파수 옵셋 추정 성능이 Ren 기법보다 우수함을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a position sensorless control system of SRM over wide speed range. Due to the doubly salient structure of the SRM, the phase inductance varies along with the rotor position. Most of the sensorless control techniques are based on the fact that the magnetic status of the SRM is a function of the angular rotor position. The rotor position estimation of the SRM is somewhat difficult because of its highly nonlinear magnetizing characteristics. In order to estimate more accurate rotor position over wide speed range, Neural Network is used for this highly nonlinear function approximation. Magnetizing data patterns of the prototype 1-hp SRM are obtained from locked rotor test, and used for the Neural Network training data set. Through measurement of the flux-linkage and phase currents, rotor position is able to estimate from current-flux-rotor position lookup table which is constructed from trained Neural Network. Experimental results for a 1-hp SRM over 16:1 speed range are presented for the verification of the proposed sensorless control algorithm.

We estimated the price range of electricity transactions under the prosumer system, considering the spread of renewable energy and the prospect of introducing a surplus power trading system between power consumers in Korea. The range (min/max) of power transaction prices was estimated by prosumers and consumers who could purchase electricity from utilities if needed. It is assumed that utilities purchased electricity from prosumers and consumers under a Time-of-Use (TOU) rate, trading at a monthly price. The range of available transaction prices according to the amount of power purchased from utilities and the amount of transaction power was also estimated. The price range that can be traded is expected to vary depending on variables such as the TOU rate, purchased and surplus power, levelized cost of electricity, etc.

In this paper, a on-line estimation method of the radial immersion angle using cutting force is presented. The ratio of cutting forces in feed and cross-feed directions acting on the single tooth at the immersion angle is a function of the immersion angle and the ratio of radial to tangential cutting force. It is found that the ratio of radial to tangential cutting force is not affected by cutting conditions and axial rake angle, which implies that the ratio determined by one preliminary experiment can be used regardless of the cutting conditions for a given tool and workpiece material. Using the measured cutting force during machining and predetermined ratio, the radial immersion ratio is estimated in process. Various experimental results show that the proposed method works within 5% error range.

The performance of a coherent rake receiver of DS-CDMA systems is significantly affected by the accuracy of channel estimation. The performance of the channel estimator can be improved by employing a channel estimation filter (CEF) whose impulse response is adjusted according to the channel condition. In this paper, we consider the design of an adaptive channel estimator for DS-CDMA systems with a pilot channel. The proposed channel estimator estimates the channel condition, which can be performed without haying exact a priori information on the operating condition. The estimated channel condition adjusts the impulse response of the CEF. Numerical results show that the use of the proposed channel estimator can provide BER performance quite robust to a wide range of channel condition.

We propose a systematic method to select the master states, which are retained in the reduced model after the order reduction process. The proposed method is based on the fact that the range space of right eigenvector matrix is spanned by orthogonal base vectors, and tries to keep the orthogonality of the submatrix of the base vector matrix as much as possible during the reduction process. To quentify the skewness of that submatrix, we define "Absolute Singularity Factor(ASF)" based on its singular values. While the degree of observability is concerned with estimation error of state vector and up to n'th order derivatives, ASF is related only to the minimum state estimation error. We can use ASF to evaluate the estimation performance of specific partial measurements compared with the best case in which all the state variables are identified based on the full measurements. A heuristic procedure to find suboptimal master states with reduced computational burden is also proposed. proposed.

To improve the performances of Sawyer motors and to regulate yaw rotation, various feedback control methods have been developed. Almost all of these methods require information on the position, velocity or full state of the motor. Therefore, in this paper, a nonlinear observer is designed to estimate the full state of the four forcers in a Sawyer motor. The proposed method estimates the full state using only positional feedback. Generally, Sawyer motors are operated within a yaw magnitude of several degrees; outside of this range, Sawyer motors step out. Therefore, this observer design assumes that the yaw is within ${\pm}90^\b{o}$. The convergence of the estimation error is proven using the Lyapunov method. The proposed observer guarantees that the estimation error globally exponentially converges to zero for all arbitrary initial conditions. Furthermore, since the proposed observer does not require any transformation, it may result in a reduction in the commutation delay. The simulation results show the performance of the proposed observer.

As process parameters scale, interconnect width are reduced rapidly while the current flowing through interconnects does not decrease in a proportional manner. This effect increases current density in metal interconnects which may result in poor reliability. Since RMS(root-mean-square) current limits are used to evaluate self-heating and short-time stress failures caused by high-current pluses, RMS current estimation is very important to guarantee the reliability of semiconductor systems. Hence, it is critical to estimate the current limits through interconnects earlier in semiconductor design stages. The purpose of this paper is to propose a fast, yet accurate RMS current estimation technique that can offer a relatively precise estimate by using closed-form equations. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method have been verified through simulations using HSPICE for a vast range of interconnect parameters.
