Multi-Code CDMA (MC-CDMA) can not only be integrated easily with a conventional system, but also achieve good spectral efficiency and high processing gain. However, it suffers from high value of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In this paper, we propose the Multi-Phase CDMA (MP-CDMA) system that can provide variable rate service and is not susceptible to the non-linear characteristics of amplifier. The clipping is introduced between at the output of multi-code modulator and at the input of MPSK modulator in order to improve the performance of MPSK chip demodulator and reduce the system complexity, The system performances are compared for the different Number of codes and different clipping levels, respectively. The optimum clipping level is also evaluated for the different number of codes in both, AWGN and frequency flat fading channel.

본 논문에서는 전압 피드백 보상에 의한 동적 과변조 기법의 성능 향상 방법을 제안한다. 전동기 구동 시스템에서 인버터는 선형 변조 영역에서 동작할 경우 단순히 전압 이득이 1인 전압 증폭기로 볼 수 있다. 그러나 과변조 영역에서는 기존의 동적 과변조 기법 적용 시 지령 전압에 대한 인버터 출력 전압의 비선형성으로 인해 전압 이득이 1보다 작아진다. 따라서 과변조 성능이 저하되는데 본 논문에서는 제한된 전압을 피드백 보상하여 과변조 성능을 향상시켰다. 이로 인해 구동 전동기의 출력 토크 성능 및 전류 제어 동특성이 향상될 수 있다. 제안된 방법을 800W PMSM(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor)의 약자속 제어에 적용하여 그 효용성을 확인하였다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tensile strength performance of the polyurethane coating material used as the waterproofing material in concrete structures. A linear regression equation is proposed to establish a correlation on the tensile strength of polyurethane coating membrane against periodic exposure to chemical degradation. The polyurethane film membrane showed a minimum strength of 23% to a maximum of 38% when subjected to chemical degradation. The elongation rate showed a relation with the tensile strength deterioration rate of at least 15% to 22% at maximum, and the proposed regression equation could be used to predict the degree of performance change of the polyurethane coating membrane under chemical degradation condition.

Concrete structures exposed to fire produce changes in their internal structure, resulting in their service life reduction due to the deterioration of its strength and performance capacity. The deterioration level are dependent on the temperature, exposure time, concrete mix proportions, aggregate property, and material properties. This study was performed to evaluate the thermal behavior of ultra-high strength concrete for the parameters of water to cement ratio (compressive strength), fine to total aggregate ratio, and maximum coarse aggregate size. At room temperature and $500^{\circ}C$, tests of ultrasonic pulse velocity, resonance frequency, static modulus of elasticity, and compressive strength are performed using ${\varnothing}100{\times}200\;mm$ cylindrical concrete specimens. The results showed that the residual mechanical properties of ultra-high strength concrete heated to $500^{\circ}C$ is influenced by variation of a water to binder ratio, fine to total aggregate ratio, and maximum coarse aggregate size.

As a preliminary study on a SOFC-GT hybrid system integrated a with coal-gasification system, the influence of the concentrations of $H_2$ and CO in syngas on the performance characteristics of the hybrid system is investigated. It is expected that the differences in the heating values of fuels with different compositions trigger the off-design operation of the gas turbine and result in different performance characteristics of the overall hybrid system. Syngas compositions are found to affect the SOFC performance. Performance of hybrid system with carbon monoxide is poorer than the case with hydrogen. In the case of part-load performance with syngas, performance degradation at part-load operating conditions with hydrogen is more dominant than the case with carbon monoxide.

In modern electronic warfare, RADAR is under constant threat of ECM(Electronic Counter Measures) signals from nearby jammers. The conventional linear frequency modulated(Linear-FM) waveform is easy to be intercepted to estimate its signal parameters due to its periodical phase transition. Recently, APCN(Advanced Pulse Compression Noise) waveform using random amplitude and phase transition was proposed for LPI(Low probability of Intercept). But random phase code signals such as APCN waveform tend to be sensitive to Doppler frequency shift and result in performance degradation during moving target detection. In this paper, random phase and code rate transition based radar waveform(RPCR) is proposed for Doppler tolerance improvement. Time frequency analysis is carried out through ambiguity analysis to validate the improved Doppler tolerance of RPCR waveform. As a means to measure the vulnerability of the proposed RPCR waveform against LPI, WHT(Wigner-Hough Transform) is adopted to analyze and estimate signal parameters for ECCM(Electronic Counter Counter Measures) application.

In this paper, a novel quantization method for wideband signal codec with 7 kHz bandwidth is proposed. In the transform-based wideband signal codecs, the signal is transformed to frequency domain and the spectral coefficients in each frequency band are quantized based on human perceptual model, followed by Huffman coding. However, the property of each band varies with frequency, and the codec has poor performance when all bands are quantized with the same method. Therefore, a selective quantization method is proposed, which analyzes the band property and selects the quantization domain between frequency domain and time domain based on the quantization efficiency. It is confirmed that the proposed method has better performance than the quantizer of G722.1 codec.

This paper presents the IR-Lamp test results of evaluating heat protection performance and measuring of mechanical/thermal properties in the heat protection material of missile external surface. The results showed that increasing the contents of microballoons improved the heat protection performance, but the mechanical properties were deteriorated. Among the kinds of microballoons, Epoxy/Phenolic Microballoons mixture showed the best mechanical properties and low thermal conductivity. Epoxy/Cork mixture showed the best heat protection in the IR-Lamp test, though it has low mechanical properties and high thermal conductivity.

In spite of high resistant to corrosion and its strength, over the last two decades, concerns still remain about the durability of FRP materials under severe environmental and thermal exposures. In this paper, authors experimentally examine the combined degradation by thermal and chemical attacks in heterogeneous FRP rebar be made up with various fibers and resins. Five types of Carbon, Glass and Hybrid FRP rebars had manufactured by different process and surface patterns are adopted for the experiments such as weight change, interlaminar shear strength, SEM and FT-IR analysis. FRP specimens were immersed in alkaline or distilled solution up to 150 days and then thermal exposed on 60, 100, 150 and $300^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. From the test results, the degradation of FRP bars are influnced by the resin type and manufacturing process as well as the fiber, and ILSS of exposed FRP bar in solutions is slightly increased in initial stage and then decresed with the passing of immersed time. But, in this test, it is observed that the discrepancy of ILSS between degraded by alkaline solution and distilled water is negligible value.

With Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity becoming more common in today's handheld mobile devices, single-chip multi-radio combo-modules, which integrate two or more heterogeneous wireless radios on a single chip, are becoming more and more popular. The key requirement for combo solutions is that the quality of the user experience (QoE) must not be compromised by degrading connectivity performance. Therefore, characterizing and understanding the behaviour of combo-module is of vital importance to ensure this requirement in various environments. In this paper, we investigate the impact of the use of combo-modules on the performance of mobile video streaming over a Wi-Fi network. Our study reveals that the use of combo-modules incurs considerable side effects on QoE for mobile video streaming applications when the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth operate at the same time in the 2.4GHz ISM band. We reveal that rate-based adaptive algorithms, including the most popular adaptive bitrate streaming MPEG-DASH, is more severely affected by this phenomenon than buffer-based adaptive algorithms.
