All of propagation path loss prediction models, which have been presented up to date, are oかy for ground living space. In reality, sea surface free space is different from ground living space in physical hierarchical structure. If the propagation path prediction model for ground living space is applied to the sea surface free space, propagation path loss will be smaller than actual value, while the maximum service straight line will become shorter. Thus this paper proposed and simulated the propagation path loss prediction model for predicting propagation path loss more accurately in sea surface free space, with its focus on CDMA mobile communication frequency band. Then the simulation results were compared to actual survey to verify its practicality.

This study was to suggest the propagation path loss and predictive model of propagation path analysis in order to apply the frequency in the millimeter-wave band to the real time inter-vehicle communication system. This study was to suppose the case of inter-vehicle communication on the one-way two-lanes road in the big cites with a lot of traffic jams in order to analyze the effect by the reflected wave of multipath. As a simulation of suggested model, it found out that the propagation path by the reflected wave was about 0.1[m]$\sim$5.1[m] longer than the one by the direct wave during the transmission of 100[m] wave direct path. Also, as a result of comparing the propagation path loss, the loss would be about -0.8[dB]$\sim$-4.2[dB] larger in case of wall reflection and -0.8[dB]$\sim$-1[dB] vehicle reflection. From the result above, this researcher found out that the path loss of reflected wave produced by the walls was about -3.2[dB] larger than the path loss produced by the adjacent vehicles.

This paper is to investigate propagation path characteristics of GPS potential jamming signal. To do this, the spherical ground diffraction model is applied to the potential jamming scenario referred to the GPS jamming events occurred in recent years. The fundamental theory on the propagation path loss is discussed and a specific model is applied to several vehicles types which have own heights of antennas in order to compare their propagation path loss values at same 2-D location. The transmitting powers are appropriately given as the ordinary GPS jamming events. And then the received powers in dBW are obtained with given transmitting powers and the estimated total loss. The result of received jamming power at various locations due to the given scenario was distinct. For example, propagation loss values were estimated as -147 ~ -142dBW and -167 ~ -162dBW in $10^6W$ and $10^4W$, respectively. This computation result of the loss can be seriously considered with the tolerable jammer power against L1- C/A GPS receiver under any real jamming situations.

Applications of bonded dissimilar materials such as metal/ceramics and resin/metal joints, are very increasing in various industry fields. It is required to find crack propagation direction and path applying to the fracture mechanics on the bonded joint of dissimilar meterials. In this paper, crack propagation direction and path were simulated numerically by using boundary element method. Crack propagation angle is able to easily determine based on the maximum stress concept. Fracture tests of Al/Epoxy dissimilar materials with an interface crack are carried out under various mixed mode conditions by using the specimens of bonded scarf joints. It is found that the experimental results are well coincide with the analysis results of boundary element method.

In this paper, the radio propagation path loss prediction simulator in tunnel was developed. It used a image theory method for analysing precise radio propagation path. And it can predict radio propagation path loss in straight and curved tunnels. The simulator can plot realtime radio propagation paths using various parameters which was input by user. And it can simulate from changing transmitter and receiver positions. The predicted path loss of simulator was compared with the measurements in Chunhyun tunnel and confirmed the validity.

This paper proposes concurrent event propagation technique for timing analysis. The technique makes it possible to find several input vectors and sensitizable paths at the same time. The concurrent event propagation technique is based on the event driven simulation and the timing analysis technique with boolean equations. The technique propagates as many events as possible at the same time while preventing propagation of boolean terms which do not sensitize paths. Since events do not propagate through false paths, the longest path which successfully propagates events to one of the primary outputs is one of the longest sensitizable paths. The technique can speed up timing analysis by unifying path sensitization and maximum delay calculation.

Train radio system has been constructed in the second stage of Kyung-bu high speed railway adopting TETRA(Terrestial trunk radio) standard at 851MHz frequency band. The base stations of the train radio system should be located along railway track to ensure seamless communication between train and wayside taking the path loss of train radio propagation into consideration. This paper provides a quantitative analysis of the path loss characteristics based on the measurement results of the train radio propagation along the high speed railway. The free space propagation model and Okumura-Hata model are generally used for base station design, but they predicted 10dB lower or 20dB higher than the measured path loss. Linear regression of the field measured data by applying the log-distance model shows path loss exponent is in the 2.8-3.2 range, which can be used to predict the path loss of the train radio propagation.

There have been traditional approaches to model radio propagation path loss mechanism both theoretically ad empirically. Theoretical approach is simple to explain and effective in certain cases. Empirical approach accommodates the terrain configuration and distance between base station and mobile unit along the propagation path only. In other words, it does not accommodate natural terrain configuration over a specific area. In this paper, we propose a spatial prediction technique for the mobile radio propagation path loss accommodating complete natural terrain configuration over a specific area. Statistical uncertainty analysis is also considered.

This paper suggested the model which could calculation propagation path. It was calculation in reflection spot which was done last in line of sight according to the change of angle of incidence. And road widths and intersection angles were to be changed to consider various types of urban area. As a result, propagation path increased when angles of an intersection changed to 15$^{\circ}$~75$^{\circ}$ and attenuated to roughly 1[dB]~2[dB] than existed model.

The received signal strengths according to the propagation distance between a transmitting shore station with a 53 m antenna hight and a receiving ship station with about 6m antenna hight from 700 m upto about 20 km are measured at ship's moving velocity of $5{\pm}1m/s$ using a single carrier signal at 150.0625MHz. In this paper, the path loss exponents at the propagation distance from 700 m to 20km are estimated via minimum-mean-square-error method using the measurements of the received signal strength, and the mean of the estimated path loss exponent become 3.79. The estimated propagation path loss exponents is similar to that calculated based on the field-strength values from 2 km to 20 km in Annex 2 of ITU-R P.1546-4, which is measuring results at maritime VHF at 100 MHz carrier frequency. Therefore, the estimated propagation path loss exponent shall be used as the expected path loss exponents for summer in costal area of South Sea of Korea.
