Abstract: A method of a first user equipment (UE) may comprise: receiving a downlink (DL) reference signal transmitted by a base station using a beam included in a beam candidate group to be used for sidelink (SL) communication with a second UE; measuring a DL reference signal received power (RSRP) of the DL reference signal; determining a transmit power of a beam included in the beam candidate group based on the measured DL RSRP; and transmitting SL data to the second UE with the determined transmit power.

Abstract: An operation method of a relay node may include: receiving, from a first communication node, first data composed of n bits; receiving, from a second communication node, second data composed of m bits; in response to determining that n is greater than m, generating first T-data of m bits excluding (n-m) bits from the n-bits of the first data and first R-data of (n-m) bits; generating third data by performing a network coding operation on the first T-data and the second data; transmitting the third data to the first communication node; and transmitting the third data and the first R-data to the second communication node.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cells or plants that can produce polylactate or its copolymers and to a method for preparing polylactate or its copolymers using the same. More specifically, cells or plants with the ability to produce polylactate or hydroxyalkanoate-lactate copolymers comprise both a gene encoding an enzyme that converts lactate into lactyl-CoA and a gene encoding polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase which uses lactyl-CoA as a substrate. Also described is a method for preparing polylactate or hydroxyalkanoate-lactate copolymers which comprises culturing the cells in a medium containing lactate or lactate and various hydroxyalkanoates or culturing the plants. Effective preparation of hydroxyalkanoate-lactate copolymer which comprises various hydroxyalkanoates as well as polylactate, using the cells or the plants, is disclosed.

Abstract: A quality control method of a DNA microarray is provided which includes preparing a DNA spotting solution containing a first fluorescent dye having particular excitation and emission wavelengths, applying the DNA spotting solution to a substrate of a DNA chip to form DNA spots in which the first fluorescent dye is bound to the substrate, and detecting fluorescent signals from the DNA spots. In the DNA microarray quality control method, since a signal from a fluorescent dye covalently bound to the solid chip surface together with DNA probe is used for the quality control, staining and dye-removing processes, which were performed in conventional quality control methods, are unnecessary.
