Digital memory circuits have been developed very fast according to the progress of semiconductor technology But It was very difficult to memorize a high frequency radio signal. Many years ago an analog loop was used for store of radio frequency signal, and the digital radio frequency memory was made to the development of wideband amplifier and high speed sampler. We present a design of wide-band DRFM using Johnson code and the simulation results with respect to the sampling speed. in this paper.

Digital memory circuits have been developed very fast according to the progress of semiconductor technology. But it was very difficult to memorize a wideband radio frequency signals. Many years ago, an analog frequency memory loop(FML) was used for store of radio frequency signal and the digital radio frequency memory was made according to the development of wideband amplifier and high speed sampler. We present a design of wideband digital radio frequency reproduction device using ladder circuit and the simulation results with respect to the sampling speed in this paper.

In this paper, a method for reduction of spurious signal in Digital RF Memory(DRFM) is proposed. Spurious response is a major performance issue of DRFM. This method is based on mixing a random phase LO signal into input IF signal and sampling it. The random phase LO signal is generated by high speed phase shifting characteristic of Direct Digital Synthesizer(DDS). Through this technique, we achieved an enhancement of 5~10 dB of spurious response.

This paper describes the effect of multiple signal regeneration in quadrature digital radio frequency memory(DRFM). Single channel DRFM have good reproducibility after storing a single signal. However, when reproduced after storing multiple signals, the spurious signal is large. The quadrature DRFM consists of I and Q channels, which can greatly reduce the spurious signal. The amplitude of the spurious signal depends on the number of bits of data stored in the DRFM. In this paper, we have obtained the number of bits of signal regeneration according to the application of radio frequency memory by obtaining the size of the spurious signal according to the number of bits of the stored data of the DRFM for multiple signals. As a result of this study, 4 bits quadrature DRFM can achieve a spurious output of less than -20dB, which is used for 4 signals. Those are expected to greatly contribute to the signal analysis of electronic warfare equipment and the development of jamming device.

반도체 기술의 발달과 더불어 디지털 신호 기억회로는 매우 빠른 속도로 발달되었다. 그러나 수 GHz 이상의 높은 고주파 신호를 저장하였다가 복재하는 것은 매우 어려운 기술이다. 고주파 신호의 복재를 위해서 과거에는 신호 감쇄가 적은 고주파 케이블을 일정한 길이로 감아서 시간지연을 시키는 아날로그 방식의 고주파 신호 저장회로가 사용되었으나, 신호 샘플링 및 광대역 신호 변환기 등이 발전되면서 고주파 신호를 고속으로 샘플링 한 뒤 디지털 회로에 저장 한 후에 필요시 고주파 신호를 복재하는 기술이 가능해 쳐다. 본 논문에서는 주파수 대역이 3 옥타브 이상 되는 광대역 고주파 신호를 저장하고 복재할 때 샘플링 주파수에 따른 특성을 분석하였다.

Digital Radio Frequency Memory (below, DRFM) performs RF signal data store, delay and re-transmission. DRFM is wildly used as core module of Jammer, EW simulator, Target Echo Generator etc. This paper suggests a hardware design of DRFM which is composed RF section(RF Input/Output Module, Local Oscillator Module) and Digital section(ADC module, memory, DAC module), and confirm the validity of the propose by the test result.

In general, pyroshock is generated from the actuation of separation devices for several stage, fairing, and satellite separation in the flight of a launch vehicle. During these events, transient vibration phenomenon called pyroshock, which shows large acceleration in the high frequency range, occurs and it can result in the malfunction of electronic components which is equipped inside the launch vehicle or satellite. In this paper, mesh washer isolators made out of SMA were introduced for the isolation of pyroshock. One type of isolator primarily used pseudoelastic characteristics of SMA and the other type of isolator used shape memory effect of SMA. For the study of basic load-displacement relationship of each SMA isolator, compressive loading tests were performed and the results showed the capability of the isolator itself. Pyroshock isolation tests were followed and verified the outstanding isolation performance of isolator. In addition, random vibration tests were also performed and checked the dynamic characteristics of each SMA isolator.

Digital Radio Frequency Memory, ( as DRFM ), is a device with the ability to restore output to the input RF signal in the required time after storing the incoming RF signals. Therefore DRFM is widely used in Jammer, EW Simulator, Target Echo Generator, and so on. This paper proposes its hardware implementation composed with the high frequency part and the digital processing part consisting of RF input/output module and local oscillator module. It is also proposed the replicated signal generation method which is consisted of the Analog-Digital conversion in the form of pulsed RF signal quantization, and FPGA to save and produce the playback signal, and RF signals to produce a Digital-Analog Conversion in the digital processing unit. This proposed scheme applied to test board and confirmed the validity of the proposed scheme through the test results obtained by the simulated input signals.

Electrosurgical knee wand (EKW) is a high-frequency thermocautery instrument and is often used for coagulation, ablation, excision, and extirpation of knee ligaments and tissues. In order to maximize the success rate, ease, and safety of knee surgery using EKW and radiofrequency ablation, it is necessary to ensure that the EKW selectively approaches the lesion with utmost accuracy and safety. The key feature of this instrument is its excellent maneuverability. Hence, the authors constructed a tensile spring model based on a shape memory alloy (SMA), which exhibits the shape memory effect. This model can be used in knee surgery as it is considered the most biocompatible femorotibial surgical actuator. The changes in external temperature with current and the thermoelectric characteristics of the SMA were investigated. The relationship between the restoring force and the typical stroke (TS) in response to the conditions in the SMA tensile spring design were evaluated. In conclusion, as the diameter of the SMA tensile spring decreased, the maximum temperature increased. The strain in the actuator caused a stable and proportional increase in the force and induced current for up to 15s, but this increase became very unstable after 30s. Moreover, the relationship between the current and the TS was more stable than that between the current and the restoring force.

In modern warfare, the importance of electronic warfare, which carries out a mission that using radio wave to find out enemy information or to protect ally information, has increased. Radar jamming technique is one of the most representative techniques of EA(Electronic Attack), it disturbs and deceives enemy radar system in order to secure ally location information. Velocity deception jamming technique, which is one of the radar jamming techniques, generally operate against pulse-doppler radar which use doppler effect in order to track target's velocity and location. Velocity Deception Jamming Technique can be implemented using DRFM(Digital Radio Frequency Memory) that performs Frequency Modulation. In this paper, I describe implementation method of VGPO/VGPI(Velocity Gate Pull-Off/Pull-In) velocity deception jamming technique using phase-sampled DRFM, and verify the operation of VGPO/VGPI velocity deception jamming technique with board test under signal injection condition.
