The IETF Differentiated Services (Diffserv) WG focused on Providing service differentiation on the Internet. One problem of the Diffserv Assured Services (AS) architecture is that it cannot guarantee fairness and throughput assurance. In this paper, we propose two schemes for guaranteeing fairness among the various target rates in the AS architecture. One is a variant of RED with IN and OUT (RIO), called the improved RIO (IRIO). The other is a variant of Time Sliding Window (TSW), called the improved TSW (ITSW). To validate the Proposed schemes, their behaviors are then examined under various simulation environments. The simulation results showed that IRIO and ITSW improved fairness and the throughput assurance in the AS architecture.

In this paper, we propose the call control scheme that can improve the capacity of the wireless system for the non-uniform traffic load distribution and the multiple types of services in multiple cells CDMA system. The number of mobile stations that can be served simultaneously in a base station is limited by the amount of total interference received in CDMA system. Further, the average number of mobile stations in each cell may not be uniformly distributed. Considering this factors, the call admission control scheme using the effective bandwidth concept is adapted in this paper. Thus, the bandwidth for a new call can be varied dynamically for reducing the blocking rate of new calls and the dropping rate of handoff calls. The suggested call control scheme is experimented through a simulation by dynamically assigning the bandwidth to new and handoff calls. The simulation results show that the proposed call control scheme can accommodate more mobile stations than the other methods in multiple cells environment.

We propose a band-switchable terahertz metamaterial based on an etched vanadium dioxide (VO₂) thin film. A line of etched VO₂ thin film was placed in the center gap of the split square-loop shape for the tunability of the metamaterial. The resonance frequency of the metamaterial can be switched from the 1.4 THz band to the 0.7 THz band, according to the insulator-metal phase transition in the VO₂ thin film. The absolute difference in the transmittance of the metamaterial was 78.5% and 65.8% at 0.7 THz and 1.4 THz respectively, according to the band switching. The differential phase shift was around 90°, and the transmittance was stably maintained between 40% and 60% in the middle band of the two switchable resonance-frequency bands.

The traveling wave tube amplifier (TWTA), which can be applied to the Ka-band millimeter-wave multi-mode seeker, consists of an high voltage power supply(HVPS), a grid modulator, a command and control, and an RF assembly. We designed a power supply that generates a -17.9 kV high voltage by synchronizing the pulse repetition frequency(PRF) and power supply switching frequency(i.e. synchronization frequency), and a high-speed grid-switching modulator for RF pulse modulation. The TWTA, which is fabricated through miniaturization with a volume of 3.18 L, has high pulse switching characteristics of up to 18.5 ns. The maximum rise/fall time of the grid on/bias signal and peak power is more than 564.9 W. Moreover, an excellent spurious performance of -68.4 dBc or less was confirmed within the range of PRF and PRF/2.

Automatic modulation classification(AMC) is a core technique in Software Defined Radio(SDR) platform that enables smart and flexible spectrum sensing and access in a wide frequency band. In this study, we propose a simple yet accurate deep learning-based method that allows AMC for variable-size radio signals. To this end, we design a classification architecture consisting of two Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)-based models, namely main and small models, which were trained on radio signal datasets with two different signal sizes, respectively. Then, for a received signal input with an arbitrary length, modulation classification is performed by augmenting the input samples using a self-replicating padding technique to fit the input layer size of our model. Experiments using the RadioML 2018.01A dataset demonstrated that the proposed method provides higher accuracy than the existing methods in all signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) domains with less computation overhead.

This paper proposes a spectral modeling of Korean traditional instrument, Haegeum, using cepstral analysis to naturally describe Haegeum sounds varying with time. To get a precise result of cepstral analysis, we set the frame size to 3 periods of input signal and more cepstral coefficients are used to extract formants. The performance is enhanced by flexibly controlling the cutoff frequency of bandpass filter depending on the resonances in the synthesis process of sinusoidal components and the deleting peaks remained in the residual signal. To detect the change of pitch, we divide the input frames into silence, attack, and sustain region and determine which region the current frame is involved in. Then, the proposed method readjusts the frame size according to the fundamental frequency in the case of the current frame is in attack region and corrects the extraction errors of the fundamental frequency for the frames in sustain region. With these processes, the synthesized sounds are much more similar to the originals. The evaluation result through the listening test by a Haegeum player says that the synthesized sounds are almost similar to originals (96~100 % similar to the original sounds).

A conventional CBR channel is now capable of delivering several digitally compressed video programs due to recent advances in video compression, such as MPEG-2, and digital transmission technology. This paper presents a joint video coding scheme that is to maintain a constant sum of bit rates for all the programs but to allow the variable bit rate for individual program in the transimission environment mentioned above. Thus advantages of VBR video compression can be obtained. This paper contributes in two aspects. First, a rate-distortion estimation method for MPEG-2 video is proposed, which enavle us predict the amount of bits and the distortion generated from an encoded picture at a given quantization step size and vice versa. The most attractive features of the proposed rate-distortion estimation method are its accuracy and a computational complexity low enough to be applied to real-time video coding applications. Second, this paper presents an efficient and accurate joint rate control scheme using the rate-distortion estimation results and verifies its performance with experiments. The experimental results show that our coding scheme gives a significant gain even though a small number of video programs are coded jointly. For example, a stable picture quality is maintained among the video programs as well as within a program, and additional extra programs can be transmitted over the same channel bandwidth if the proposed joint video coding scheme is used.

With the development of water internet technology, data communication between objects is expanding. Research related to data communication technology between vehicles that incorporates related technologies into vehicles has been actively conducted. For data communication between mobile terminals, data stability, reliability, and real-time performance must be guaranteed. The 5 GHz Wi-Fi band, which is advantageous in bandwidth, communications speed, and wireless saturation of the wireless network, was selected as the data communications network between vehicles. This study analyzes how to design and implement a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network in a vehicle network. Considering the characteristics of the mobile communication terminal device, a continuous variable communications structure is proposed to enable high-speed data switching. We simplify the access point access procedure to reduce the latency between wireless terminals. By limiting the Transmission Control Protocol Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)-based Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function and implementing it in a broadcast transmission protocol method, communication delay between terminal devices is improved. Compared to the general commercial Wi-Fi communication method, the connection operation and response speed have been improved by five seconds or more. Utilizing this method can be applied to various types of event data communication between vehicles. It can also be extended to wireless data-based intelligent road networks and systems for autonomous driving.

This paper presents the varactor-tuned miniaturized hairpin tunable filter with a single control voltage. The previously proposed miniaturization method is a very straight-forward method to miniaturize a parallel coupled-line filter. In this paper, the miniaturized hairpin tunable filter is proposed with the constant ratio rule of that the capacitances of the each stage always have constant ratio without any dependency to miniaturized electrical length. To show the validity of the proposed method, a 3rd order 0.5 dB ripple Chebyshev fitter with a center frequency of 900 MHz and a fractional bandwidth(FBW) of 10 % was designed and fabricated. The fabricated filter was based on CER-10 substrate of Taconic Inc. with 1SV277 varactor diode of Toshiba Inc. The center frequency of the fabricated filter can be changed from 606 MHz to 944 MHz, 338 MHz with the control voltage from 0.5 V to 4 V. The insertion loss of the proposed filter is increased with the increment of the control voltage, and the filter characteristics are well reserved expect of slight change of the bandwidth with the various control voltage.

This paper describes a fully integrated CMOS low-IF mobile-TV RF tuner for Band-III T-DMB/DAB applications. All functional blocks such as low noise amplifier, mixers, variable gain amplifiers, channel filter, phase locked loop, voltage controlled oscillator and PLL loop filter are integrated. The gain of LNA can be controlled from -10 dB to +15 dB with 4-step resolutions. This provides a high signal-to-noise ratio and high linearity performance at a certain power level of RF input because LNA has a small gain variance. For further improving the linearity and noise performance we have proposed the RF VGA exploiting Schmoock's technique and the mixer with current bleeding, which injects directly the charges to the transconductance stage. The chip is fabricated in a 0.18 um mixed signal CMOS process. The measured gain range of the receiver is -25~+88 dB, the overall noise figure(NF) is 4.02~5.13 dB over the whole T-DMB band of 174~240 MHz, and the measured IIP3 is +2.3 dBm at low gain mode. The tuner rejects the image signal over maximum 63.4 dB. The power consumption is 54 mW at 1.8 V supply voltage. The chip area is $3.0{\times}2.5mm^2$.
