In this paper, We propose an efficient iteration decoding control method with variable iteration decoding for iteration codes decoding. As the number of iterations increases, the bit error rate and frame error rate of the decoder decrease and the incremental improvement gradually diminishes. However, as the iteration decoding number is increase, it require much delay and amount of processing for decoding. Thus we propose variable iteration control method to adapt variation of channel using Frame Error-Check indicator. Therefore, the CRC method requires the fewest iterations and less computation than the CE method and the SCR methods.

Variable nozzles are used to enhance the effectiveness of aircraft engines at various altitudes. Unsynchronized movements of variable nozzle flaps affect the direction of thrust in case the variable nozzle consists of many flaps. A synchronization test system was developed to verify the synchronization characteristics of variable nozzle mechanism including flaps. The test system has a capability to simulate combustion pressure in variable nozzle space. The test system was used to qualify the synchronization characteristics of a variable nozzle flaps affected by magnitude and uniformity of simulated combustion pressure, and time delay of each nozzle actuators.

In this paper, a variable optical signal delay line based on coupled ring resonators is designed and fabricated in high-index contrast polymer material. The free spectral ranges (FSR) of the rings are designed to be 100 GHz, and 8 coupled rings are used. When two rings near a bus waveguide are in resonance, the optical delay is measured to be about 100 ps. When four rings are in resonance, the measured delay is about 180 ps. Both are close to the theoretical calculations.

This paper proposes a nonlinear fuzzy PID controller with variable parameters to improve slow rising time and divergence occurred by limited input spaces and a resultant limited control input during fuzzification in a fuzzy PID controller with fixed parameters, and describes the design principle and tracking performance of a proposed fuzzy PID controller. The parameters of a proposed controller are adjusted by the stability conditions derived from 'small gain theorem' and satisfy the BIBO stability of overall control system.

LonWorks over IP (LonWorks/IP) virtual device network (VDN) is an integrated form of LonWorks device network and IP data network. LonWorks/IP VDN can offer ubiquitous access to the information on the factory floor and make it possible for the predictive and preventive maintenance on the factory floor. Timely response is inevitable for predictive and preventive maintenance on the factory floor under the real-time distributed control. The network induced uncertain time delay deteriorates the performance and stability of the real-time distributed control system on LonWorks/IP virtual device network. Therefore, in order to guarantee the stability and to improve the performance of the networked distributed control system the time-varying uncertain time delay needs to be compensated for. In this paper, under the real-time distributed control on LonWorks/IP VDN with uncertain time delay, a control scheme based on disturbance observer and ZPETC(Zero Phase Error Tracking Controller) phase lag compensator is proposed and tested through computer simulation. The result of the proposed control is compared with that of internal model controller (IMC) based on Smith predictor and disturbance observer. It is shown that the proposed control scheme is disturbance and noise tolerant and can significantly improve the stability and the tracking performance of the periodic reference. Therefore, the proposed control scheme is well suited for the distributed servo control for predictive maintenance on LonWorks/IP-based virtual device network with time-varying delay.

As the Internet usage grows, people want to access the Internet while they are moving. To satisfy this requirement economically, IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs(WLANs) are rapidly deployed. In order to support mobility, WLANs must provide smooth handoff mechanism. Recent studies show, however, handoff delay of WLANs exceeds 300ms, most of which is due to slow scanning mechanism finding a new AP. With this handoff delay, current WLANs is not suitable to provide seamless realtime interactive services such as VoIP sevice. In this paper, we analyze the current handoff method of IEEE 802.11 and we propose a new handoff algorithm which can decrease time needed for searching a new AP and thus reduce overall handoff time. We show by simulation that the proposed algorithm has shorter handoff delay than current handoff method.

In this paper, we designed a 4-bit optical true time-delay(TTD) for phased array antennas(PAAs), which is composed of a wavelength-fixed optical source, 2 ${\times}$ 2 optical MEMS switches, and fiber-optic delay lines. A 4-bit TTD with a unit time delay difference of 6 ps for 10-GHz PAAs has been implemented. Measurement results on time delay show an error of -0.4 ps at maximum, corresponding to a radiation angle error of less than 1.63$^{\circ}$. Thus, the TTD implemented in this research performs in excellent agreement with theory. Each TTD line, composed of MEMS switches and fiber-optic delay lines, connected to the corresponding antenna element has insertion loss in between 1.36 ㏈ and 2.40 ㏈ depending upon the setup of the switches. On the other hand, the insertion loss difference between TTD lines was 0.32 ㏈ at maximum for a fixed radiation angle. The TTD structure proposed in this paper might be more reliable and economical than those previously proposed using tunable wavelength sources if proper power equalization either with gain control of RF amplifiers or variable attenuators is achieved.

This study is on the design and performance evaluation of a multi medium access control(MAC) protocol for multimedia access in the wireless ATM network. In general, MAC protocols for multimedia data transmission are classified into the fixed slot allocation algorithm that allocates base-station slots equally over terminals, and the dynamic slot allocation algorithm that with flexible penetration. The conventional slot allocation algorithms assign slots based on the average bandwidths required for various services types. Although the algorithms have a wide bandwidth for real-time-variant services, the slots are being wasted due the service types. To improve the slot waste problem, this thesis proposes a method that minimizes the waste by assigning variable slots based on the most appropriate bandwidth after a base-station analyzes the service type requested from terminals.

In this paper, we propose a synchronous reservation protocol that is efficient for supporting variable sized messages in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) based local network using a passive star topology. A. control channel is used to coordinate transmission on data channels. Time is slotted with fixed-sized slots. The network can accommodate a variable number of nodes, and can operate independently of the change of the number of nodes. So, any 'new' node can join the network anytime without network re-initialization. Moreover, with the protocol, we can avoid data channel and destination conflicts. We analyze the performance by using EPA method according to the variation of the end to end propagation delay with respect to one slot time, and validate the results by simulation.

This paper presents a 6~18 GHz 8-bit true time delay (TTD) circuit. The unit delay circuit is based on m-derived filter with relatively constant group delay. The designed 8-bit TTD is implemented with two single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switches and seven double- pole double-throw (DPDT) switches. The reflection characteristics are improved by using inductors. The designed 8-bit TTD was fabricated using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS. The measured delay control range was 250 ps with 1 ps of delay resolution. The measured RMS group delay error was less than 11 ps at 6~18 GHz. The measured input/output return losses are better than 10 dB. The chip consumes zero power at 1.8 V supply. The chip size is $2.36{\times}1.04mm^2$.
