Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system that is to support higher data transmission rates after 4G communication systems such as LTE. The present disclosure provides a communication method by a terminal in a wireless communication system, comprising the operations of: transmitting to a network provider's server information indicating a permission for outputting a banner on a screen of the terminal; receiving from the provider's server a key that is used for filtering a discovery code; receiving the discovery code from one or more access points (AP), and filtering the received discovery code using the key; requesting from the provider's server banner information with respect to the filtered discovery code, and receiving the banner information in response to the request; and outputting a banner on the screen using the received banner information, and transmitting an output report of the banner to the provider's server.

Abstract: A Base Station (BS) cooperative communication method in a wireless communication system is provided. The BS cooperative communication method includes measuring signal quality of one or more neighboring BSs, comparing a number of downlink beams available for communication between a serving BS and a Mobile Station (MS) with a reference value, determining not to involve the one or more neighboring BSs in BS cooperative communication for the MS when the number of downlink beams is equal to or larger than the reference value, comparing signal measurements of the one or more neighboring BSs with a first threshold when the number of downlink beams is smaller than the reference value, and determining to involve one or more neighboring BSs having a signal measurement value larger than the first threshold in the BS cooperative communication for the MS.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for collecting medium data items are provided. The apparatuses include a portable terminal which collects medium data items determined to be related to a particular event under a search condition according to an occurrence time of the particular event and classifies the collected medium data items records for the particular event.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provide for updating an application in an electronic device. The method includes intercepting an update notification for informing that it is necessary to update the application. The method also includes determining whether an update condition based on an update policy is satisfied or not. The method also includes, when the update condition is not satisfied, delaying transmitting the update notification until a next time to determine.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for distinguishing between camera movement and object movement, and for extracting an object in a video surveillance system for detecting an invader based upon object movement. The apparatus and method distinguish actual invader detection owing to object movement from erroneous invader detection owing to a camera's movement or shaking. In the case of actual invader detection owing to object movement, a corresponding object is extracted. In this way, optical flow is obtained from an input dynamic image, and is converted into angle values and classified. If an angle value exceeds a predetermined critical value, it is determined that object movement is detected. If the angle value does not exceed the predetermined critical value, it is determined that camera movement or shaking is detected.
