Doherty amplifier has more efficiency and distortion than general amplifier. These distortion classified amplitude distortion and phase distortion, memory effect distortion. This paper reports on an attempt to investigate, model and quantity the contribution of the electrical nonlinearity effects and the thermal memory effects to a doherty amplifier's distortion generation and suggests thermal memory effect compensator for pre-distorter. Also this paper reports on the development of an accurate dynamic expression of the instantaneous junction temperature as a function of the instantaneous dissipated power. The parameters of suggested model suppress thermal memory effects doherty amplifier with pre-distorter. Pre-distorter with electrothermal memory effect compensator for doherty amplifier enhanced ACLR performance about 22 dB than general doherty amplifier. Experiment results were mesured by 50W LDMOS Doherty amplifier and pre-distorter with electrothermal memory effect compensator was simulated by ADS.

Memory effect, which influence the performance of Doherty amplifier, become more significant and critical in designing these circuits as the modulation signal bandwidth and operation power level increase. This paper reports on an attempt to investigate, model and quantity the contribution of the electrical nonlinearity effects and the thermal memory effects to a Doherty amplifier's distortion generation. Also this raper reports on the development of an accurate dynamic expression of the instantaneous junction temperature as a function of the instantaneous dissipated power. This expression has been used in the construction of an electrothermal model for the Doherty amplifier. Parameters for the nelv proposed behavior model were determined from the Doherty amplifier measurements obtained under different excitation conditions. This study led us to conclude that the effects of the transistor self-heating phenomenon are important for signals with wideband modulation bandwidth(ex. W-CDMA or UMTS signal). Doherty amplifier with electrothermal memory effect compensator enhanced ACLR performance about 20 dB than without electrothemal memory effect compensator. Experiment results were mesured by 60W LDMOS Doherty amplifier and electrothermal memory effect compensator was simulated by ADS.

We used graphics processing units for an efficient time-domain 3D wave propagation modeling. Since graphics processing units are designed for massively parallel processes, we need to optimize the calculation and memory management to fully exploit graphics processing units. We focused on the memory management and examined the performance of programs with respect to the memory management methods. We also tested the effects of memory transfer on the performance of the program by varying the order of finite difference equation and the size of velocity models. The results show that the memory transfer takes a larger portion of the running time than that of the finite difference calculation in programs transferring whole 3D wavefield.

In this study, we simulated 3D wave propagation modeling using a Xeon Phi x200 processor and compared the parallel computation performance with that using a Xeon CPU. Unlike the 1st generation Xeon Phi coprocessor codenamed Knights Corner, the 2nd generation x200 Xeon Phi processor requires no additional communication between the internal memory and the main memory since it can run an operating system directly. The Xeon Phi x200 processor can run large-scale computation independently, with the large main memory and the high-bandwidth memory. For comparison of parallel computation, we performed the modeling using the MPI (Message Passing Interface) and OpenMP (Open Multi-Processing) libraries. Numerical examples using the SEG/EAGE salt model demonstrated that we can achieve 2.69 to 3.24 times faster modeling performance using the Xeon Phi with a large number of computational cores and high-bandwidth memory compared to that using the 12-core CPU.

DRAM 가격의 하락으로 인메모리 컴퓨팅에 대한 연구 및 개발이 다시 활발해지고 있으나 효율적인 메모리 시스템 구성을 위한 연구는 아직 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문은 64 비트 멀티프로세서와 대용량의 메모리로 구성되는 인메모리 컴퓨팅 시스템을 모델링하고, 메모리 크기 및 채널 개수에 따른 시스템의 성능을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그리고 처리된 트랜잭션의 수를 성능평가의 기준으로 하여 메모리의 크기와 채널 개수에 따른 비용을 고려한 최적의 인메모리 컴퓨팅 메모리 시스템 구조를 제안하였다.

This paper suggests an improved system-level model of RF power amplifiers(PAs) including memory effects, and validates the suggested model by analyzing the power spectral density of the output signal with a predistortion linearizer. The original three-box(Wiener-Hammerstein) model uses input and output filters to capture RF frequency response of PAs. The adjacent spectral regrowth that occurs in three-box model can be perfectly removed by Hammerstein structure predistorter. However, the predistorter based on Hammerstein structure achieves limited performance in real PA applications due to other memory effects except RF frequency response. The spectrum of the output signal can be predicted accurately using the suggested model that changes a memoryless block in a three-box model with a memory polynomial. The proposed model accurately predicts the output spectrum density of PA with Hammerstein structure predistorter with less than 2 dB errors over ${\pm}30$ MHz adjacent channel ranges for IEEE 802.11 g WLAN signal.

This paper suggests an extended memory polynomial model that improves accuracy in modeling memory effects of RF power amplifiers(PAs), and verifies effectiveness of the suggested method. The extended memory polynomial model includes cross-terms that are products of input terms that have different delay values to improve the limited accuracy of basic memory polynomial model that includes the diagonal terms of Volterra kernels. The complexity of the memoryless model, memory polynomial model, and the suggested model are compared. The extended memory polynomial model is represented with a matrix equation, and the Volterra kernels are extracted using least square method. In addition, the structure of digital predistorter and digital signal processing(DSP) algorithm based on the suggested model and indirect learning method are proposed to implement a digital predistortion linearization. To verify the suggested model, the predicted output of the model is compared with the measured output for a 10W GaN HEMT RF PA and 30 W LDMOS RF PA using 2.3 GHz WiBro input signal, and adjacent-channel power ratio(ACPR) performance with the proposed digital predistortion is measured. The proposed model increases model accuracy for the PAs, and improves the linearization performance by reducing ACPR.

자성체의 물성적인 성질에 바탕을 둔 Preisach 모델링은 히스테리시스 현상을 수치모사하기 위한 방법으로 널리 사용되어 왔다. 히스테리시스 곡선에서 각형비(Squareness)가 큰 경우에 Preisach 밀도가 집중되게 되면 이 근방에 수렴값이 존재할 경우 수렴이 어려워지는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 Preisach 모델링을 프로그램하는데 있어서 기존에 발생했던 수렴의 문제점과 그 문제점을 해결하기 위한 보다 낳은 프로그램 기법들을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 기존 모델링 기법과 유사한 메모리를 사용하면서 수렴에 있어 향상된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
