The methods of providing available bandwidth adaptively using feedback to maximize the utilization of network as well as the quality of service have been the focus of recent research activities for ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode). This study has been extended from the point-to-point connection to a point-to-multipoint environment as the number of applications requiring multicast service increases. It is known that the effectiveness of feedback based congestion control scheme diminishes as propagation delay increases. Especially for a multicast connection consisting of various paths and destinations with different performance and congestion status, the problem of unfairness due to different propagation delays may occur. The degree of such unfairness may change depending on various aspects of congestion control schemes. These has been, however, relatively little study on these problems. In this paper, we present how various aspects of control schemes-length of the interval between feedback generations, point of time to coalesce feedback cells from child paths, decreasing factor of source rate in case of congestion-affect the degree of unfairness. Simulation results show that degree of unfairness changes according to when the feedback coalescing happens. Expecially it is shown that the effect of feedback coalescing time to the degree of unfairness is more significant for the smaller feedback interval. It is also found that as the source rate decreasing factor becomes larger the average ACR(Allowed Cell Rate) at the source gets lower and the degree of unfairness grow larger.

A high-voltage highly-integrated analog front-end (AFE) IC for medical ultrasound imaging applications is implemented using standard 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS process. The proposed AFE IC is composed of a high-voltage (HV) pulser utilizing stacked transistors generating up to 15 Vp-p pulses at 2.6 MHz, a low-voltage low-noise transimpedance preamplifier, and a HV switch for isolation between the transmit and receive parts. The designed IC consumes less than $0.15mm^2$ of core area, making it feasible to be applied for multi-array medical ultrasound imaging systems, including portable handheld applications.

The multipath multistage interconnection network is proposed which has the capability of dynamic rerouting. Construction of the network gets simpler, and the number of stages is reduced to $LOG_{2}$(N), so hardware complexity is reduced. This proposed algorithm makes it possible that destination adresses are used as routing tags, and it is easy to set up the path. Because this proposed network has a dynamic rerouting, backtracking is not necessary to set up another path when conflicts of switch faults are occurred. To estimate a performance, analytic methods are used and it is proved that probability of acceptance is improved in this Multipath MIN.

This paper presents the photonic bandgap structure that has a defect mode within a broad stopband. In order to create a broad stopband, we eliminated one of periodic stopbands of PBG structure by using a quarter-wavelength transformer and cascaded another PBG structure having a center frequency corresponding to the eliminated stopband. We have demonstrated that it is a simple and effective method that can solve an overlapping problem of periodic stopband in two cascaded PBG structures.

본 논문은 다권선 변압기를 이용한 능동 셀 밸런싱 회로의 에너지 전달 효율을 향상시킬 수 있는 스위칭 방식을 제안한다. 다권선 변압기를 이용한 밸런싱 회로는 셀 당 하나의 스위치가 사용되며, 하나의 변압기 권선을 두 개의 셀이 공유하는 구조를 가져 다른 능동 셀 밸런싱 회로보다 소량의 능동 소자 및 수동 소자가 사용되는 장점을 갖는다. 이 밸런싱 회로는 직렬 셀 전압의 분포에 따라 에너지를 공급하는 소스 셀과 에너지를 받는 목표 셀을 선택하여 벅-부스트 및 플라이백 방식으로 동작한다. 하지만, 플라이백 동작에서 기존의 스위칭 방식을 사용할 경우, 변압기의 커플링 계수의 영향으로 인해 밸런싱 과정 중 비-목표 셀로 전달되는 에너지가 발생하게 된다. 이는 에너지 전달 효율을 감소시켜 셀 밸런싱 과정 중 새로운 셀 불균형 현상을 초래한다. 본 논문에서는 플라이백 동작에서 변압기의 커플링 영향을 최소화하여 셀 밸런싱을 효과적으로 수행할 수 있는 스위칭 방식을 제안하였다. 제안한 스위칭 방식의 성능은 1 W급 시작품을 이용한 실험을 통하여 검증되었다.

When the isolation between transmitter and receiver in Electronic Warfare equipment is not sufficient, the radiated noise jamming signal from the transmitter feeds back into the receiver and interferes with receiving radar pulse signal. Therefore pulse jamming and noise jamming can't be performed together in the same frequency bands. In this paper, we present a time-sharing TX/RX control technique of the switch matrix which inhibits the transmission of noise jamming signal by using the predicted gate of pulse train and also makes the corresponding channel filter operate to receive the radar pulse signal during the predicted gate pulse. This technique was implemented by EPLD and confirmed by experiment. The proposed technique enables the pulse jamming and the noise jamming to be simultaneously executed in multiple jamming environments.

This paper presents a new Leading edge modulation Buck converter operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) for the pulse voltage input. In the slave output of the LLC half-bridge multi-resonant converter, to regulate the direct chopper's output voltage, its PWM switch is controlled by the leading edge modulation. The principles of this proposed LEM control method and the fast dynamics in inductor current based on the converter impulse response are studied. The theoretical results are verified through an experimental prototype of the 100W 60inch PDP Address power module.

The recent explosion of data traffic, including cloud services, coupled with the Internet penetration has led to a surge in the need for ultra-fast optical networks that can efficiently connect the data center's reconfiguable resources. In this paper, the algorithms for controlling switching cell operation in the optical switch connection structure are proposed, and the resulting performance is compared and analyzed through simulation. Performance analysis results showed that the algorithm proposed in this paper has improved the probability of successful multi-connection setup by about 3 to 7% compared to the existing algorithm.

With the advancement of information and communication technology, tactical networks are continuously being converted to All-IP future tactical networks that integrate all application services based on Internet protocol. Futuristic tactical mesh network is built with tactical WAN (wide area network) nodes that are inter-connected by a mesh structure. In order to guarantee QoS (quality of service) of application services, tactical service mesh (TSM) is suggested as an intermediate layer between infrastructure and application layers for futuristic tactical mesh network. The tactical service mesh requires dynamic QoS monitoring and control for intelligent QoS coordination. However, legacy networking nodes used for existing tactical networks are difficult to support these functionality due to inflexible monitoring support. In order to resolve such matter, we propose a tactical mesh WAN node as a hardware/software co-designed networking node in this paper. The tactical mesh WAN node is conceptually designed to have multi-access networking interfaces and virtualized networking switches by leveraging the DANOS whitebox server/switch. In addition, we explain how to apply eBPF-based traffic monitoring to the tactical mesh WAN node and verify the traffic monitoring feasibility for supporting QoS coordination of tactical-mesh traffic.

Wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) networks are emerging to be the right choice for the future transport networks. In WDM networks, the optical layer provides circuit-switched lightpath services to the client layer such as IP, SONET and ATM. The set of lightpaths in the optical layer defines the virtual topology. Since the optical switches are reconfigurable, the virtual topology can be reconfigured in accordance with the changing traffic demand pattern at theclient layer in order to optimize the network performance. We present a new approach to the virtual topology reconfiguration and loadbalancing problem for wavelength-routed, optical wide-area networks under dynamic traffic demand. By utilizing the measured Internet backbone traffic characteristics, our approach follows the changes in traffic without assuming that the future traffic pattern is known. For the simulation traffic modeling, we collected the data from real backbone traffic. Experiments show that the standard deviation compared to previous technique is reduced.
