Millimeter wave (mmWave) systems are one of the proposed solutions for the fifth generation (5G) mobile network. However, mmWave system experiences strong path loss due to higher frequencies. To solve this problem, such a system demands a narrow beampattern to reduce the loss of the mmWave signal energy due to the high path loss. One of the significant challenges to be addressed before their deployment is designing three dimensional (3D) beamforming algorithms, which are required to be directional. In this paper, we first propose two 3D beamforming algorithms with aim of tracking users in both the azimuth and elevation planes. Our proposed beamforming algorithms operates based on the principles of singular value decomposition (SVD) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Furthermore, these beam-forming algorithms are designed to have limited or negligible side lobes, which cause less interference to the other users operating in the same cell. In order to achieve this objective, Kaiser Bessel (KB) filter is adopted which helps in mitigating side lobes in the synthesized beampattern. Based on our analysis, we gain some valuable insights. The proposed algorithms are shown to perform well in achieving considerable capacity and lower side lobs.

Within the context of Industry 4.0, mobile robot systems such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are one of the major areas challenging current communication and localization technologies. Due to stringent requirements on latency and reliability, several of the existing solutions are not capable of meeting the performance required by industrial automation applications. Additionally, the disparity in types and applications of unmanned vehicle (UV) calls for more flexible communication technologies in order to address their specific requirements. In this paper, we propose several use cases for UVs within the context of Industry 4.0 and consider their respective requirements. We also identify wireless technologies that support the deployment of UVs as envisioned in Industry 4.0 scenarios.

Recent V2X communication technology provides safety and service information in real time for autonomous driving. It has been researched more improved performance rather than legacy wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) through high data rate and low packet latency. However, quality of service(QoS) cannot currently be guaranteed, because original physical and medium access control(MAC) layer have been optimized for low mobility. This paper focuses on the implementation of enhanced MAC layer of WAVE and proposes a new channel access method for QoS.

Photovoltaic (PV) representing clean renewable energy is increasingly attracting attention by the Republic of Korea government's announcement of the renewable energy 3020 implementation plan. Monitoring of the PV climate information is essential to achieve sustainably high performance ratio of the PV plant through the efficient maintenance and to support stable grid connection of the PV plant through the prediction of the solar power generation. In this paper, in order to investigate the usefulness of the LoRa communication for monitoring the climate information of the PV power plant, a test about communication range is performed with a LoRa transceiver which is composed of the Arduino board and the RaspberryPi module in the terms of hardware, and which is implemented with a commercial protocol of the communication converter in the terms of software. It is shown from test results that the communication range for the transmission of the PV climate information reaches 1.3 km in the vicinity of Daddeok Research Complex in Daejon.

Due to the increasing popularity and the need for cloud computing systems, new paradigms and models such as fog and edge computing have recently emerged. The researches on mobile edge computing, including 5G, are focused on virtual network function placement for communication performance. Mobility studies of heterogeneous networks have been carried out in network mobility (NEMO), vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), and telematics technology. Mobile gateways play an important role in communication between things/mobile users and networks. However, mobile gateways have a difficulty on maintaining the communication link in a wireless environment due to obstacles and unstable connections with devices. In this paper proposes a dynamic load balancing approach in order that the multi-network mobile gateway (MNMG) distributes its traffic to one of several heterogeneous networks. For high utilization of networks, the MNMG distributes traffic dynamically by reflecting each network state. To evaluate the performance of the proposed approach, experiments is performed on real commercial networks consisting of the MNMG with the proposed load balancing were used in Korea, Thailand and India.

In this paper, we design hazing based on a physical modeling and propose a method to dehaze by efficiently estimating the transmission amount from fog images. He [9] proposed a single image visibility restoration method using dark channel prior (DCP). Among many algorithms, this DCP algorithm is known to have good performance in various fog images. However, this method requires matting processing, which requires a large amount of computation to refine the block type of the transmission amount. In this paper, we propose an improved image visibility restoration algorithm that estimates the transmission amount using a hybrid-type multi-filter based on edge intensity information to more accurately remove haze at the boundary. Through the experiment of a proposed algorithm, we show that haze is effectively eliminated without using matting processing. In particular, the algorithm is more effective at the boundary region.

Hundreds of thousands of new malicious files are being created every day. Existing pattern-based vaccine engines cannot detect these new malicious files. To solve these problems, artificial intelligence based malicious file detection methods have been proposed. However, artificial intelligence based malicious file detection method has a disadvantage that takes long time because it requires dynamic analysis. We can use similarity hashes to solve these problems and find similar files. However, it also takes a long time to compare similarity hashes when there are many files. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a method to generate similarity hash index.

A fully operative and efficient 5G network cannot be complete without the inclusion of artificial intelligence (AI) routines. Existing 4G networks with all-IP (Internet Protocol) broadband connectivity are based on a reactive conception, leading to a poorly efficiency of the spectrum. AI and its subcategories like machine learning and deep learning have been evolving as a discipline, to the point that nowadays this mechanism allows fifth-generation (5G) wireless networks to be predictive and proactive, which is essential in making the 5G vision conceivable. This paper is motivated by the vision of intelligent base stations making decisions by themselves, mobile devices creating dynamically-adaptable clusters based on learned data rather than pre-established and fixed rules, that will take us to a improve in the efficiency, latency, and reliability of the current and real-time network applications in general. An exploration of the potential of AI-based solution approaches in the context of 5G mobile and wireless communications technology is presented, evaluating the different challenges and open issues for future research.

While the convergence of ICT in various industries is actively under progress, there is still the nontrivial matter of the livestock industry being smarter and safer. This problem can cause unnecessary expenses in the case of various diseases due to the contamination of livestock farms. In this paper, we propose a design concept of a smart pig farm using digital twin for improving animal welfare as a feasibility study. Digital twin is the digital replica of the real world and is becoming more attractive with the realization of the industry 4.0. Due to the deployment of digital twin, livestock farming has been replicated and simulated to be more vigorous against livestock disorders in the virtual world and applies outcomes to livestock farms in the real world.
