Abstract: A strain sensor may have a conductive elastic yarn including a first fiber having a predetermined length and a shape of a fiber yarn and a second fiber having electrical conductivity and a sheet shape. The strain sensor may have a pair of wiring members electrically connected to both ends of the conductive elastic yarn. The conductive elastic yarn, with the second fiber wrapped around the first fiber, is twisted in a coil shape.

Abstract: The measuring apparatus according to the present invention searches each of subbands divided from a target band set with respect to the Frequency Distribution Information (FDI) obtained periodically to find a unit band corresponding to a maximum frequency component among unit bands pertaining to said each subband; marks the found unit band as a Dominant Unit Band (DUB); organizes a DUB distribution table by collecting a plural pieces of the FDI as much as a predetermined time; checks a distribution locus of DUBs on the organized DUB distribution table. And, if it is confirmed that the DUB distribution table shows a specific distribution pattern corresponding to an acceleration sound, etc., the measuring apparatus makes a measured intensity to be identified as an intensity measured at a start position of a platform or a tunnel section, based on the time when the specific distribution pattern appears.

Abstract: A wireless communication terminal according to the present invention determines signal strength value of a particular property based on a data reception speed at the time of using a data service through an arbitrary AP (Access Point) of a wireless data network and prepares mutual communication property information including identification information of the arbitrary AP and type information (for example, model number) of the wireless communication terminal in addition to the determined value and reports the prepared mutual communication property information to a remote server.

Abstract: An entity executed in a wireless communication terminal according to the present invention transmits a series of requests to an external server through a first and a second communication network so that selected content can be received being divided between the two communication networks, receives data segments of the selected content transmitted through the two communication networks from the external server according to the series of requests and provides the received data segments to a processing unit intended for playing of content data in order of the data segments, and checks the amount of unprocessed data not yet provided. If the amount of unprocessed data is larger than a predetermined reference value, the entity transmits a series of requests demanding data of the selected content only to the second communication network which is more advantageous for a user form the aspect of cost in using a data service.

Abstract: An optical structure and a method of manufacturing a laser diode chip. The optical structure includes a silicon substrate, an optical fiber fixed to that substrate, and a laser diode chip. Grooves are formed in the optical fiber and the laser diode chip. Those grooves are used for aligning and positioning the optical fiber relative to the laser diode chip. The laser diode chip is manufactured by vapor-depositing a nitride thin film (Si3N4) on a laminated wafer comprised of n-type InP layers, p-type Inp layers, and InGaAs layer. Then, etching an InGaAs layer using a solution of sulfuric acid, hydrogen peroxide, and distilled water after opening an etching window to form a V-mesa and V-grooves; etching an InP layer using a hydrochloric acid solution; vapor-depositing a nitride thin film (SiNx), opening an electrode forming window to form electrodes on the wafer, and forming p-type and n-type electrodes the wafer.
