ATSC is currently working on standardization of hybrid 3DTV broadcasting service in heterogenous network environment after completion of service-compatible 3DTV broadcasting service standard based on broadcasting channel. This paper proposes a convergence 3D video broadcasting method on broadcasting and IP network while guaranteeing a Full-HD 3D quality without degrading the image quality of legacy DTV. Specifically, this paper describes transmission of the 3D additional video using the ISO/IEC 23009-1 DASH, robust synchronization method under heterogenous network environments and system target decoder model for hybrid 3DTV receiver. Based on experimental results, we confirm that proposed technologies can be used as a core technology in the hybrid 3DTV standardization and a reference model for a development of hybrid 3DTV encoder and receiver.

In this paper, we propose a technique of a practical symbol acquisition and tracking using a low complex ADC and simple digital circuits for noncoherent asynchronous impulse-radio-based Ultra Wideband (IR-UWB) receiver based on energy detection. Compared to previous approaches of detecting an exact acquisition time that require much hardware resource, the proposed technique is to detect the target symbol by finding the symbol acquisition interval per symbol with a target symbo, thus the complexity of the complete signal processing and power consumption by ADC are reduced. To do this, we define the bit decision window (BDW) and analyze the relation between SNR, hardware resource, size of BDW and BER(Bit Error Rate). Using the results, the optimum BDW size for the minimum BER with limited hardware resource is selected. The proposed synchronization technique is verified with an aid of a simulator programmed by considering practical impulse channels.

In this paper, we propose a frame synchronization algorithm for robust to the combined effects of large Doppler fluctuations and extended, time-varying multipath in the underwater acoustic communication. From the algorithm, we can recover a high timing error which is occurred from an acoustic propagation delay and uncertainty of oscillator between transmitter and receiver. In order to verify the performance of the synchronization algorithm, the lake trial results are used. The lake experiments are performed in a Gyeongcheonho located in Mungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. We can see that the start position of frame is adjusted after the frame synchronization while the receiver moving.

In this paper, we make a design study for a local oscillator system of the 100 ㎓ band cosmic radio receiving system. We use the YIG oscillator with digital driver which is the main oscillator. This oscillator has a good frequency and phase stability at some temperature variation, and the easy computer aided control characteristics. This total system designed to two subsystem, first is the oscillator system include YIG oscillator, tripler, harmonic mixer and triplexer etc., second is the PLL system to supply the precise and stable local oscillator frequency to mixer. The proposed local oscillator system in this paper can be used in a single or multi pixel receiver because this system can be lock the local oscillator frequency automatically using PC.

TV White Spaces (TVWS) are freed up after transition from analog television to Digital Television (DTV). Some wireless communications are allowable to operate in TVWSs, such unlicensed Wireless Fidelity (WiFi). Because TVWSs are located in the VHF and UHF bands, TVWSs can provide significantly better coverage and wall penetration inside buildings and other structures than the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi frequencies currently in use. Therefore, this paper assumes that WiFi will be deployed in TVWSs. However, the interference impact of WiFi on DTV has to be taken into account. The interference probability in DTV receiver was evaluated by using Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte-Carlo Analysis Tool (SEAMCAT). As a result, when 20 WiFi UEs are simultaneously operating at the maximum transmit power of 23 dBm and the guard band is 22 MHz, the protection distance should be at least 6 km to meet the interference probability of 5% in DTV receiver.

KBS and ETRI have co-developed an advanced DOCR(Digital On Channel Repeater) which has an equalization and pre-distortion function and can be operated properly under lower isolation of reception and transmission antennas. Field tests of the DOCR were performed twice in Suwon area in 2004 and 2005. This paper summarizes the characteristics of the DOCR system and field test results in Suwon. The changes in DOCR coverage according to the different generations of ATSC DTV receivers were also analyzed. Basic concept to apply the DOCR system in DTV broadcasting networks in Korea is suggested through test results.

This paper proposes a new time synchronization scheme for the Automatic Identification System(AIS). The proposed scheme utilizes a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator(TCXO) as a local reference clock, and consists of a Digitally Controlled Oscillator(DCO), a divider, a phase comparator, and register blocks. Primary time reference is IPPS from GPS receiver that is synchronized to Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). And if GPS is unavailable, other station's signal is utilized as secondary time reference. The phase comparator measures time difference between the 1PPS and the generated transmit clock. The measured time difference is compensated by controlling the DCO and the transmit clock is synchronized to the Universal Time Coordinated(UTC). The synchronized transmit clock(9600Hz) is divided into the transmitting time slot(37.5Hz). The proposed scheme is tested in an experimental AIS transponder set. The experimental result shows that the proposed module satisfies the timing specification of the AIS technical standard, ITU-R M.1371-1.

GPS(Global Positioning System)is a satellite-based navigation system that we can survey where we are, anywhere and anytime. In this paper, delay-lock loop of the receiver which detects the navigation data is theoretically analyzed, and designed using the digital logic circuit. Also logic operations for the synchronization are analyzed. The designed system consists of the correlator which correlates the received C/A code and the generated C/A code in the receiver, the C/A code generator which generates C/A code of selected satellite, and the direct digital clock syntheizer which generates the clock of the C/A code generator to control the C/A code phase and clock rate. From the analyses results of the proposed digital delay-lock loop system, the system has the detection propertied over 90% when its input signal power is above-113.98dB. The influence of input signal variation of digital delay loop, which is the input of A/D converter, is investigated and the performance is analyzed with the variation of threshold level via the computer simulation. The logic simulation results show that the designed system detects precisely the GPS navigation data.
