This paper develops a prediction model for evaluating the influence of propagation attenuation due to aircraft's flying across the earth-satellite link. This prediction model is based on the Aperture-field method of Huygens-Fresnel wave theory. Considering arriving and taking off course around airport, attenuation impairment is calculated for different types of aircrafts and flight directions. In order to verify this model's accuracy, numerical results are compared with measurement values. The calculations agree well with the measurements. Ground antenna directivity and anticipated impairment to digital broadcasting system such as Perfect TV are also discussed.

This paper develops a deterministic model for evaluating the influence of building windows upon the outdoor-to-indoor propagation path in cellular systems. This prediction model is based on the Aperture-field method of Huygens-Fresnel wave theory. Penetration losses and indoor signal characteristics are analyzed. It is found that the window frames of the building play an important role in determining the indoor field intensities. In order to verify this model's accuracy, numerical results are compared with measurement values. The calculations agree well with the measurements.

In this study, we have developed a translation repair method to automatically improve the accuracy of translations. Machine translation (MT) supports multilingual communication; however, it cannot achieve high accuracy. MT creates only one translated sentence; therefore, it is difficult to improve the accuracy of translated sentences. Our method creates multiple translations by adding personal pronouns to the source sentence and by using a word dictionary and a parallel corpus. In addition, it selects an accurate translation from among the multiple translations using the results of a Web search. As a result, the translation repair method improved the accuracy of translated sentences, and its accuracy is greater than that of MT.
