Bandwidth extension is a technique to improve speech quality and intelligibility, extending from 300-3400 Hz narrowband speech to 50-7000 Hz wideband speech. This paper designs an artificial bandwidth extension (ABE) module embedded in the AMR (adaptive multi-rate) decoder, reducing LPC/LSP analysis and algorithm delay of the ABE module. We also introduce a fast search codebook mapping method for ABE, and design a low power BWE technique based on the AMR decoder. The proposed ABE method reduces the computational complexity and the algorithm delay, respectively, by 28 % and 20 msec, compared to the traditional DTE (decode then extend) method. We also introduce a weighted classified codebook mapping method for constructing the spectral envelope of the wideband speech signal.

Effect of substrate thickness, perforation position and size on the bandwidth and radiation characteristics of a proximity coupled perforated microstrip patch antenna (PCPPA) with $2{\times}2$ square perforations inside a patch is investigated. As the thicknesses of antenna substrate and feed substrate increase, the bandwidth of a PCPPA increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics. As the position of a perforation moves toward the edge of a patch along the length direction, the bandwidth of a PCPPA increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics, while the effect of changing the position of a perforation along the width direction on the bandwidth and radiation characteristics of a PCPPA is negligible. As the perforation size is decreased, the bandwidth of a PCPPA is increased and the radiation characteristics of a PCPPA are enhanced.

In this paper, we proposed vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain of mobile phone internal antenna. The proposed antenna has vertically structured radiator instead of planar structured radiator to improve the antenna characteristics for GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. The antenna improve bandwidth of low band with 28 % than planar structured radiator. and also, improve bandwidth of high band with 14 %, efficiency 31.80~86.36 %, average gain -4.956~-0.617 dBi on the GSM850/900 and DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. These results are good performance among the small antenna with vertically structured radiator for increasing bandwidth and gain.

In this paper, we propose Active bandwidth allocation scheme of multiplexed streamed MPEG video sequences over BcN network. In order to real time processing, multiplexed source is estimated by linear-prediction per measurement period. n the result target quality value were not sufficient, we proposed a over-allocation method and a reallocation one to guarantee QoS. We used two kinds of sources, one is random multiplexed source made of four different video sources, the other is the one considered the arrange of I frame in the sequence. With those sources, we analyzed the linear prediction, compared over-allocation with reallocation method. As a result, In both schemes, the objected target quality value is achieved, the sufficient valuce bandwidth under 10% when measurement period is over 1.8 sec, the utilization is over 0.9. Especially, the Target of quality value of the reallocation scheme is better at the same condition.

Metro networks use the existing circuit-switching technology like SONET/SDH. Such circuit-switching based networks are inefficient in tarrying Internet traffic with bursty nature. Therefore, metro networks can become a bottleneck In order to resolve this problem, the IEEE 802.17 working group has proposed the RPR (Resilient Packet Ring) technology. In addition to this, the RPR fairness mechanism has been defined to provide fairness among the stations in the RPR network. However, the current RPR fairness mechanism has the problem of inefficient use of the available bandwidth after when the congestion at a node is resolved. In this paper, we propose an improved bandwidth allocation mechanism in which, after the congestion resolution at a node, the node estimates the number of nodes transmitting data and measures the remaining bandwidth and fairly allocates the available bandwidth to active nodes. To show the performance of our proposed mechanism, we have performed simulation and showed that the proposed mechanism offers higher bandwidth utilization.

This paper proposes a dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithm with adaptive maximum transmission window (DBA-AMTW) to increase channel utilization in Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs). A polling mechanism in EPON determines channel utilization and puts constraints on DBA algorithm and scheduling. DBA algorithms based on interleaved polling with stop (IPS) allocate transmission windows to optical network units (ONU) considering requests of all ONUs. However channel idle time when any ONU does not transmit packets decreases channel utilization. Proposed DBA-AMTW improves efficiency of a network and allocates transmission windows effectively by appropriate DBA computation from REPORT messages of all ONUs. An adaptive maximum transmission window for each ONU determined by a DBA computation in the previous scheduling cycle. Simulation results show that the proposed DBA algorithm improves performance of throughput and average delay time.

This paper presents the structure of a broadband coplanar waveguide(CPW) fed square slot antenna with a impedance bandwidth tuning patch. The designing method of the antenna suggests that two resonant frequencies are excited as a dual-frequency dipole antenna following the dimensions of the square slot. In other words, the lower resonant frequency mainly depends on the slot width and the higher one its length. A CPW fed square slot antenna with a impedance tuning patch was measured to $20GHz^\~33GHz$, $50\%$, VSWR=2 impedance bandwidth by adjusting the dimensions of the tuning patch when the slot length had $70\%$ of its width. This result shows that a medical CPW fed antenna is easily implemented with a simple square slot structure including a bandwidth tuning patch in the center.

In this paper, network selection algorithm for services of mobile IPTV(internet protocol television) and implementation of a hierarchical processing system for reducing overload by terminal with low speed is proposed. This algorithm selects the network according to the following priorities derived from formulas; value that uses remaining bandwidth, network cost, signal strength. If terminal has a low processing power for using selected network and TV service, quality of service declines due to the system overloading. Hence, we implemented system which processes selected network and TV services accomplished by layer divided. Through experiments results, the method of direct user network selection waits for bandwidth assignment. However, on the one hand, that waiting time in exhausted situation will be very long. On the other hand, if we consider the priority plot of used networks, we should select the network with the best state. Therefore, data transmission rate will keep on average and the waiting time will be low.

In this paper, a new approach is proposed for effectively estimating the occupied bandwidth of frequency modulation (FM) signals. The proposed method makes use of the smoothing niter for removing the perturbation of spectrum envelope, which frequently occurs in FM signals having the instantaneous frequency. An effective procedure is derived for finding the relatively accurate bandwidth of FM signals combined with x-dB bandwidth measurement method, which International Telecommunication Union-Radiocommunication (ITU-R) recommended. It was shown that the proposed approach provides superior performance relative to the one obtained with the x-dB bandwidth measurement method in terms of sample bias and mean squared error of bandwidth estimates.

본 논문은 실시간 통신을 위한 이중 TDMA 구현 이더넷의 구조를 제시하고 이 네트워크 상에서의 대역폭 할당 기법을 제안 및 평가한다. 대역폭 할당 기법은 사전에 알려진 스트림 집합의 주가, 전송시간등의 실시간 트래픽 특성분석에 의해 프레임 시간의 범위, 사용율.종료시한.프로토콜 제약조건을 구하고 이를 만족시키는 프레임 시간과 슬롯시간을 결정한다. 이 기법은 단일 TDMA 구현 이더넷의 대역폭 할당에 따르는 낭비 시간 분석에 기반하고 있으며 이중화의 특성을 이용하여 낭비시간을 감소시킴으로써 단순히 대역폭이 두 배로 확장된 네트워크보다 높은 스케쥴 가능성을 보인다.
