Abstract: A particle separating apparatus and method are provided, which pass a fluid sample such as blood through a filter to remove foreign matter, and separate target particles by using a MOFF channel, and re-separate the separated target particles through dielectrophoresis. The particle separating apparatus includes a MOFF (Multi Orifice Flow Fractionation) channel including a multi orifice segment through which a fluid sample passes to discharge a primarily separated material that are target particles separated from the fluid sample, through a central passage; a dielectrophoresis channel including a pair of electrodes to which AC power is applied and forming an electric field in a flow channel connected to the central passage of the MOFF channel to re-separate the target particles from the primarily separated material discharged from the central passage of the MOFF channel through dielectrophoresis.

Abstract: A mobile communication terminal capable of position determination, including: a base station information recorder recording detailed base station information corresponding to at least one base station; a base station signal receiver receiving base station signal information from a reference base station at a predetermined interval; a base station information reader reading the detailed base station information with respect to a base station corresponding to the received base station signal information, from the base station information recorder; and a position determiner determining a position of the mobile communication terminal by using the received base station signal information and the read detailed base station information.

Abstract: Provided is a method and system for determining a position of a mobile communication device in a mobile communication network, the method including the steps of: dividing an area covered by the mobile communication network into a plurality of grids and collecting a first base station signal information with respect to each of the divided grids; storing and maintaining the collected first base station signal information in association with position information of the grids in a database; measuring a second base station signal information received by the mobile communication device; comparing the second base station signal information with the first base station signal information to find position information corresponding to the second base station signal information in the database; and generating final position information of the mobile communication device based on the position information found in the database.
