In this paper, the method is proposed that the equivalent result can be obtained by compensating the variation of gain and phase in the comparison with the result of near-field measurement which is obtained in the steady state, although the gain and phase variation of rx-channels occurred in the near-field rx-measurement of digital active phased array antenna. The proposed concept has the time section for monitoring the state of the rx-channels through the calibration path in the measurement timeline, and is the method for compensating the variation of state. For validating the proposed method, the fabricated X-band digital active phased array antenna and the planar near-field measurement facility is utilized. The proposed method is validated in the comparison with the compensated pattern which the unstable state of rx-channels is calibrated and the reference pattern obtained under the steady state of the rx-channels.

In this thesis, studied the method to minimize the changes in frequency response and level due to the variation of the distance from the source to the microphone. selecting three microphones (omni directional, cardioid, super cardioid) which are being used generally, frequency responses were measured in accordance with the distance changes. Gotten the difference from the reference as the result of measurement, changed responses for each frequency range were compensated in comparison of the original human vocal source. In low frequency range, the low frequency boost caused by the proximity effect and decrease in accordance with the distance were compensated. The variation in mid-frequency range is comparatively small, however since the mid-range is the most important part of the human vocal signal, were compensated the mid-frequency range in comparison of the reference. The human vocal signal variation in high frequency range is extremely small and the high frequency is compensated close to the original source without difficulty. Understanding the microphone characteristics and compensations, this study showed that the response can be maintain among the change of the distance from the source to the microphone.

최근 무선전송에서 SISO(single input singe output) 시스템의 전송률이 샤논 한계(Shannon limit)에 근접함에 따라, 이것을 극복하여 더 높은 데이터 전송률을 얻기 위해 MIMO(multiple input multiple output) 시스템에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 현재 진행 중인 DVB-NGH 시스템 표준화에도 전송률 개선을 위해 MIMO SM(Spatial Multiplexing) 기술에 대해 고려하고 있으며, 방송 시스템 내 송수신 안테나들 간 상관(correlation)이 발생하는 경우에 성능 개선을 위해 Precoding과 MIMO SM을 결합한 $2{\times}2$ 구조의 MIMO SM 방법이 제안되었다. 이 방법은 두 개의 송신안테나에 모두 16QAM 신호가 전송되는 경우와 두 송신안테나에 각각 16QAM, QPSK 신호가 전송되는 경우를 포함하고 있다. 이때 고출력 증폭기(high power amplifier) 전단에서 두 송신 안테나에 서로 다른 변조가 적용되는 경우에 PAPR(peak-to-average power ratio)이 달라서 고출력 증폭기 출력단의 송신전력 차이로 인해 각 신호의 방송권역(coverage)이 같지 않은 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 $2{\times}2$ MIMO SM 방식에서 송신 안테나별로 신호의 변조방식이 서로 다른 경우에 송신신호의 PAPR을 같게 하여 증폭기 출력단에서 각 송신신호의 전력이 동일하게 할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 수신기의 복잡도를 증가시키지 않으면서 두 송신 신호의 방송권역을 동일하게 한다.

In this paper, a couple of well-known methods for determination of the number of source signals impinging on sersor array in array processing are introduced and compared in terms of estimation accuracy. The one is the procedure issued by Akaike(Akaike's Information Criterion : AIC) and the other one by Schwartz and Rissanen(Minimum Description Length:MDL). This paper demonstrates, through computer simulation, that the AIC is more reliable than the MDL in such troublesome cases as very closely spaced source signlas, very limited number of sensors in the array, finite data sequences and/or low Signal-to-Noise ratio(S/N).

In this paper, a small microwave sensor that can be applied to a wearable device is proposed because it can detect the heartbeat signal of a human body moving irregularly at low speed. It consist of balanced microstrip radiation patches in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, self-oscillation detection circuit, and feedback circuit. Based on the theoretical development and simulation, the validity of the proposed structure was confirmed and the manufactured prototype was tested. The board size of the circuit is as small as 65mm × 85㎟, and has a low power consumption of 60mW thanks to the simple RF circuit structure. Finally heartbeat signal has been obtained from a human body moving at low speed (0.5Hz) within a linear distance of 2 to 30mm close to the sensor and a lateral distance of ±20mm.

Some digital partical response continuous phase modulation signals such as 3RC, 3SRC, 4SRC, and TFM have cconstant envelope characteristics and compact power spectra. However, their bit error rates in fast fading environments are too high when a simple frequency detection is used. This is due to high inter symbol interference resulting from adjacent bits. The improvement of BER performance by using DFE(Decision Feedback Equalization) to cancel the ISI of one adjacent bit is theoretically investigated in this paper. Numerical resuls are presentes to compare the BER performance of frequency detection with and without decision feedback equalization.

본 논문은 움직이는 물체의 거리와 속도측정을 위한 고전력 쏘나(SONAR)시스템 개발에 목적을 두었다. 고전력 딘나 시스템은 이동하는 물체에 주파수가 190kHz이고, 1.6ms 만큼의 시간차를 가지는 두 개의 정현 구동신호를 보내, 되돌아오는 초음파의 시간차를 이용했다. 초음파 센서의 송신부에는 고전력 엠프를 사용하여 ${\pm}60V$의 정현 구동 신호가 송신 초음파 센서에 전달 되도록 하였다. 초음파 센서의 신호 발진 및 수신된 신호의 저장을 위하여 IM RAM을 활용하였다. 150-250kHr 대역의 아날로그 BP필터를 거쳐 RAM에 저장된 수신신호는 송신신호와 함께 Cross-correlation을 행하여 시간지 연값을 계산하였고, 이로부터 거리 및 속도를 측정했다. 이 실험에서 설계 제작된 쓰나 시스템으로부터 측정된 값은 오실로스코프와 광 센서를 이용하여 직접 측정한 값들과 비교했다. 그 결과 $2\%$의 오차로 근접함을 확인하였다.

We have developed the UHF CW/FM proximity sensor system. The UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor is the system which recognizes the distance from the antenna to the target using the UHF band signal. To adjust sensing distance, we must change modulation frequency parameter or modulation index parameter. When we select the modulation frequency paramter for adjusting sensing distance, new modulation frequency generator and new band pass filter will be required. It is so inefficient that we choose modulation index parameters for adjusting sensing distance. In this paper, theoretical principles of the UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor are analyzed and doppler signals for the distance from the antenna to the target are measured as the modulation index($\beta$) being changed. Three systems of which moduation indices are 38, 50, and 61 are made. We concluded that the sensing distance will decrease as the modulation index($\beta$) increases. It is in accord with the theory of this UHF CW/FM Proximity Sensor System.

In this paper, we propose a new signal frame structure based on Alamouti code that can maintain the same performance as Alamouti code and increase spectral efficiency. The proposed signal frame structure can increase spectrum efficiency to approach 1(bit/s/Hz) since it can process n bit data during (n+1) time slot. In order to verify two performances, we derive closed form BER via mathematical approach, and compare with the simulation result in Rayleigh fading plus AWGN channel. Then we find that the two performances are exactly same.

Performance indicators such as output SNR, SIR, SINR for rectangular smart antennas in CDMA basestations have been derived. Simulations have been carried out to find the rectangular smart antenna performance while varying the input SNR, number of antenna elements, and the interferers' spatial distributions. Simplified Conjugate Gradient Method was chosen as the underlying beam forming algorithm. It has been shown that the performance of a rectangular smart antenna is similar to that of the linear one having the same number of elements when the interferers are randomly distributed over the whole azimuth angle range.
