In a TDD system, the length of slots can be unequal, and the number of downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) slots per frame can be different as well. The advantage of using TDD is the capability to accommodate asymmetric high-bit-rate services for the DL and It, which will be one of the prominent features in 4G systems. This paper analyzes the performance of TDD system on mobile channel environments like indoor pedestrian and vehicular channel, and proposes optimum modulation/demodulation method in TDD system. A rectangular QAM (RQAM) used in various communication systems has good BER performance but the much more signal amplitudes also have become one of the barriers to implement receiver. While PSK receiver is implemented easily because it has a constant amplitude, but it's BER performance is worse than RQAM. APSK proposed in this paper integrates merits of RQAM and PSK, and minimizes demerits of then And a simple method is also proposed to demodulate the soft symbol. The results indicate that the proposed APSK has a little worse performance than RQAM but the dynamic range of APSK is about 4 dB, 8 dB better than RQAM at 16-ary, 64-ary modulation/demodulation respectively.

A signal processing technique for interferometric fiber-optic sensors is proposed. It does not require a any special optic components such as phase modulator, $3times3$ couplers,to obtain the full sensitivity of the interferometer. Instead, it requires a reference interferometer for phase referencing and a reference mirror for intensity referencing, but intensity referencing can be done without using the r reference mirror. The new technique utilizes the frequency chirping of the laser diode to process t the sensor signal with both wide dynamic range and high sensitivity of the interferometer. It was a applied to an internal-mirrored FP interferometric temperature sensor to obtain the system noise of $4\times10^{-3\circ}C$ from I cm FP Interferometor sensor device.

This paper presents a detection and ranging algorithm for a high-speed targets in the high PRF radar. We show, unlike the conventional methods, it firstly estimates Doppler frequency with a quasi-periodic pulse train prior to range processing. The estimated Doppler frequency can compensate the phase error enbeded in the received signal, which makes the signal integrated coherently in the range direction and localizes the target's signiture in low SNR. We present the derivation of the proposed algorithm and discuss how the system parameters such as the range/Doppler sampling condition, processing time and Doppler estimation error affect the performance of the proposed algorithm, which is verified by simulations.

배열센서를 사용한 표적의 위치 추정은 레이다 및 소나에서 잘 알려진 문제이다. 최근에 Lee 등은 1 차원 수평 선배열 센서만을 사용하여 다중경로를 통해 들어오는 신호로부터 표적의 3 차원 위치를 추정하였다. 그러나 이 알고리즘에서 수중에서의 음속은 수심에 관계없이 일정하다고 가정하였기 때문에 음속이 수심에 따라 다양하게 변화하는 실제 수중환경에서는 그 추정성능이 현저히 저하된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 표적의 거리, 깊이, 방위각으로 구성되는 3 차원 위치 추정을 위해 비균일 음속환경에서의 음파전달모델(ray propagation model)을 이용한 ML 기법(maximum likelihood estimation)을 적용하였으며 일정한 음속을 가정한 Lee 기법의 추정치를 초기값으로 한 탐색을 통해 ML 기법의 연산량을 감소시켰다.

Since the AESA radar scans and tracks a distant targets or ground, it requires a test field which meets far-field condition before flight test. In order to test beam foaming, targeting, and availability from cluttering and jamming, it is general to build a outdoor roof-lab test site at tens of meters high. However, the site is affected by surrounding terrain, weather, and noise wave and is also requires time, space, and a lot of costs. In order to solve this problem, theoretical near-field beam foaming method has proposed. However, it requires modification of associated hardware in order to construct near-field test configuration. In this paper, we propose near-field beam foaming method which use single LUT in order to calibrate the variation of TRM(transmit-receive module) which consists AESA radar without modification of associated hardware and software. It requires less costs than far-field test and multiple LUT based near-field test, nevertheless it can derives similar experimental results.

군사장비에 대한 EMI문제는 2차 세계대전 이후 전자장비에 대한 의존도가 높아짐에 따라 크게 변화하였다. 2차 세계대전 초기에는 주로 항공기의 엔진점화장치에서 발생되는 3~30MHz 대역의 무선주 파수간섭(RFI)이 통신장비에 문제가 되었으며 간섭현상도 그다지 심각하지 않았다. 그러나 전자공학의 급 속한 발전에 따라 고성능 통신장비 및 레이다가 등장하였으며 각종 전자장비도 고출력화, 고밀도화됨에 따 라 장비자체에서 방사되는 전자파잡음의 세기가 증가하게 되었다. 이에 반해 체계(System)탑재 전자장비 들이 점차 마이크로프로세서화 됨에 따라 제어신호의 수준은 더 낮아져서 전자파간섭에 더욱 취약하게 되 었다. 또한 현대의 전장(Battle Field)은 수많은 전기/전자장비가 동시에 운용됨에 따라 발생되는 전자파로 인해 더욱 복잡한 전자파환경이 형성된다.

In this paper, we propose a real-time system for counting people. The proposed system uses an impulse radio ultra-wideband(IR-UWB) radar to estimate the number of people in a given location. The proposed system uses learning-based classification methods to count people more accurately. In other words, a feature vector database is constructed by exploiting the pattern of reflected signals, which depends on the number of people. Subsequently, a classifier is trained using this database. When a newly received signal data is acquired, the system automatically counts people using the pre-trained classifier. We validated the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by presenting the results of real-time estimation of the number of people changing from 0 to 10 in an indoor environment.

Due to the existence of flash lobe caused by the radome structure, a radar return in general contains clutter component added to target echo. Unlike jammer, clutter is apt to simultaneously coexist with target echo, which hinders a monopulse radar from estimating the angle difference between target echo direction and radar steering direction. In this paper, we propose a clutter estimation algorithm applicable to generalized sidelobe canceller(GSC) based monopulse radar. We show that clutter estimation can be achieved via iterative process of the orthogonal projections. Through simulations, the proposed GSC-based system combined with the clutter estimation can outperform the conventional monopulse system in terms of target angle estimation.

Recently, level meters have been associated with the safety and maintenance of industrial sites and require a wide measurement range. Generally, to ensure the measurement range of the level meter, the measurement environment is improved to reduce the noise or to compensate the distortion of the signal through signal processing. The noise of FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) radar level meter or the distortion of the signal affects the near region characteristics of the level gauge, resulting in a reduction of the minimum detection distance. In this paper, an equalizer filter considering characteristics of window function and bit spectrum is applied to remove the noise in the near region of the level meter to improve the minimum detection distance performance and to improve the measurement reliability in the vicinity of the level meter, which is relatively difficult to detect, we want to improve the detection range.

In electronic warfare, source enumeration and direction-of-arrival estimation are important. The source enumeration method based on eigenvalues of covariance matrix from received is one of the most used methods. However, there are some drawbacks such as accuracy less than 100 % at high SNR, poor performance at low SNR and reduction of maximum number of estimating sources. We suggested new method based on eigenvalues gaps, which is named AREG(Accumulated Ratio of Eigenvalues Gaps). Meanwhile, FGML(Fast Gridless Maximum Likelihood) which reconstructs the covariance matrix was suggested by Wu et al., and it improves performance of the existing source enumeration methods without modification of algorithms. In this paper, first, we combine AREG with FGML to improve the performance. Second, we compare the performance of source enumeration and direction-of-arrival estimation methods in Rayleigh fading. Third, we suggest new method named REG(Ratio of Eigenvalues Gaps) to reduce performance degradation in Rayleigh Fading environment of AREG.
