Abstract: Disclosed is a BSLM method of generating U independent alternative symbol sequences by changing a phase of symbol sequences by phase sequences and transmitting the alternative symbol sequences with a PAPR to lower the PARR of a transmission signal of a transmitter in an OFDM system. The transmitter uses m-sequences as the phase sequence and a receiver uses an ML decoder to distinguish the phase sequence. The BSLM method includes rotating phases in blocks according to the m-sequences used in the respective symbol sequences, selecting a signal sequence with a minimum PAPR among U alternative signal sequences generated by the m-sequences in the transmitter, and partitioning U alternative symbol sequences into U/2 blocks in the transmitter. Block partitioning and predetermined phase rotation are used to embed side information in an alternative signal sequence, and the BSLM scheme may be extended to a BPTS.

In addition to offering effective prevention and inhibition of mould growth, the antifungal agent can replace malachite green, a known carcinogen, in the aquaculture industry.

Abstract: A zipper with improved fastening stability is disclosed. The improved zipper opens and closes according to the engagement and separation of a plurality of coupling elements formed on facing surfaces of a pair of zipper tapes and includes a zipper slider for engaging and separating the coupling elements, guiding rails attached on upper surfaces of the zipper tapes, and an auxiliary slider that guides the guiding rails as they slide through it to thereby gather the zipper tapes before the coupling elements are engaged. The structure is compact, and the zipper can be engaged with minimal force, even when the garment is tightly stretched or the zippered enclosure (suitcase, e.g.) is tightly packed with material.

Abstract: An inline skate mounting a pair of air tubes is invented for absorbing shock transmitted to its wheels so as to allow the use of rigid wheels, and to protect the rider's knees and ankles from shock. The inline skate comprises a frame having insertion compartments for mounting the shock absorbers, guide recesses, brackets for defining desired spaces, and a wheel holder having supporting plates. The wheels are coupled to and supported by the sides of the supporting plate and inserted into the guide recesses so that the wheel holder moves upward and downward when an external force is applied so as to transmit the external force to the shock absorbers. The shock absorbers are inserted into the insertion compartments and filled with air to absorb the external force when the wheel holder moves vertically. Since the wheel holder moves vertically as the skate traverses an uneven surface, the inline skater can balance stably and safely.

Abstract: Disclosed are an electron emission display device and a driving method thereof, which protect a drive circuit such as a display region or a data driver when the data driver operates erroneously. The display region receives a data signal from a data driver and a scan signal from a scan driver to display an image. A timing controller provides a drive signal to the data driver and the scan driver to drive the data driver and the scan driver. A data sensor senses whether the data driver is malfunctioning. A power supply unit supplies an electric drive source to the display region, the data driver, the scan driver, the timing controller, and the data sensor. In case of data driver malfunction, the data sensor is capable of preventing the supply of power to various parts of the device by disabling the power supply unit.
