In this paper, coordinated space division multiple access(SDMA) technology is proposed to mitigate inter-cell interference by using partial channel state information in cooperative wireless communications system with limited feedback. Each AT selects an optimal cluster transmission mode and sends it back to a cluster scheduler, and at the cluster scheduler, ATs are scheduled within a AT group with the identical cluster transmission mode, and the optimal transmission mode and the corresponding scheduled ATs are determined to maximize scheduling priority. Also, in order to enhance multiuser diversity gain, an extended transmission feedback method is proposed to feed back multiple preferred cluster transmission modes at each AT. It is shown that the proposed coordinated SDMA scheme outperforms existing non-coordinated SDMA schemes in terms of the average system throughput.

To improve coding performance of scalable video coding which is an emerging video coding standard as an extension of H.264/AVC, SVC uses not only intra prediction and inter prediction but inter-layer prediction. This causes a problem that computational complexity is increased. In this paper, we propose an efficient intra prediction mode decision method in spatial enhancement layer to reduce the computational complexity. The proposed method selects Inra_BL mode using RD cost of Intra_BL in advance. After that, intra mode is decided by only comparing DC modes. Experimental results show that the proposed method reduces 59% of the computation complexity of intra prediction coding, while the degradation in video quality is negligible.

We have demonstrated the selection and the amplification of the components of an optical frequency comb using femto-second laser injection-locking technique. We used a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser as a master laser and a single-mode diode laser as a slave laser. After passing through the interference filter with the center wavelength 794.7 nm and the transmittance bandwidth 1.5 nm, the optical frequency comb by mode-locked femto-second laser was injected into the slave laser. The injection-locked slave laser had $3{\sim}4$ multi-mode with the mode spacing 100.5 MHz, whichcorrespond to the repetition rate of a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. The power of the modes selected by femto-second laser injection-locking technique was amplified to several thousands times

For the improvement of coding efficiency, the H.264 standard uses new coding tools such as VBS, 1/4-pel accurate ME, multiple references, intra prediction, loop filter, etc. Using these coding tools, H.264 has achieved significant improvements from rate-distortion point of view compared to existing standards. However, the encoder complexity is greatly increased due to these coding tools. We focus on the complexity reduction method of MB mode selection. Among all modes which can be selected, $8{\times}8$ and intra $4{\times}4$ mode have higher complexity than the others. So we propose the methods for reduction of the $8{\times}8$ and intra $4{\times}4$ mode complexity by using information of other modes with relatively low complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed methods save up to $54.6{\%}$ of total encoding time while keeping the average decrease about 0.012dB in PSNR.

However, the encoder complexity is greatly increased due to these coding tools. We focus on the complexity reduction method of intra-mode decision. Our algorithm first restricts selective prediction modes of Intra4x4 using a simple preprocessing. The prediction modes of Intra4x4 are used for restricting those of the other inter-modes. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms other conventional methods and save about 82% of total encoding time.

The Multi-view Video Coding (MVC) which is exploiting disparities between views has been developed to improve the coding efficiency of multi-view video. But MVC has a problem of having high computing complexities because of disparity estimation. This paper propose a fast mode decision for non-anchor picture to reduce the computational time of MVC. The proposed method uses two phases. Anchor pictures in hierarchical B picture structure have a higher correlation with prediction mode selection of non-anchor pictures, so in the first phase, prediction mode of non-anchor pictures is selected by exploiting the macro-block regions in anchor picture. In the second phase, we select a reference direction of inter prediction mode exploiting a higher correlation among reference directions of inter prediction modes of 7 block sizes. Experimental results show that the proposed method could save average about 44% in the encoding time with negligible coding efficiency losses.

The demand for high quality of multimedia applications, which far surpasses the rapid evolution of transmission and storage technologies, makes better compression coding capabilities ever increasingly more important. In order to provide enhanced video coding performance, this paper proposes an efficient competition-based motion vector coding scheme. The proposed algorithm adaptively forms the motion vector predictors based on the contexts of scene characteristics such as camera motion and nearby motion vectors, providing more efficient candidate predictors than the previous competition-based motion vector coding schemes which resort to the fixed candidates optimized by extensive simulations. Up to 200% of compression gain was observed in the experimental results for the proposed scheme applied to the motion vector selection for skip mode processing.

To achieve flexible visual contents adaptation for multimedia communications, the ISO/IEC MPEG & ITU-T VCEG form the JVT to develop an SVC amendment for the H.264/AVC standard. JVT uses inter-layer prediction that can improve the rate-distortion efficiency of the enhancement layer. But inter-layer prediction causes computational complexity to be increased. In this paper, we propose a fast mode decision for inter frame coding. It makes use of the correlation between optimized prediction mode and its RD cost. Experimental results show that the proposed schemes save up to 38% of encoding time with a negligible coding loss and bit-rate increase.

본 논문에서는 평탄 대역 모드와 손실형 평탄 대역 모드의 투과 스펙트럼을 가지는 PDLS 기반 Lyot형 광섬유 빗살 필터에서 출력되는 편광 상태를 이론적으로 분석하였다. 분석을 위해 파장 가변 레이저, 편광 조절기, 그리고 편광자를 사용하였다. 필터에 배치된 두 개의 반파장판을 적절히 조절하여 평탄 대역 모드와 손실형 평탄 대역 모드를 선택할 수 있다. 편광 조절기를 적절히 조절하면 파장 가변 레이저로부터 나오는 빛의 편광을 원하는 것으로 선택 가능하고 한 채널 내에서 필터의 투과 대역을 미세하게 조절할 수 있다. 그리고 편광자를 통해 출력되는 스펙트럼으로 출력 스펙트럼의 파장별 편광 상태를 알 수 있다.
