This paper introduces the development of HF(NFC) and UHF band(13.56 MHz, 920 MHz) tag antennas, imbedded in a box. In dual band antennas, the HF band tag can be used to inspect the box using NFC, and the UHF band tag can be used for logistics. The dielectric constant of the box material is measured and used for simulation. The Ntag213 chip manufactured by NXP is used in HF loop antennas, since NFC is possible with Ntag213. For the UHF band, the Higgs-3 chip manufactured by Alien is used. The HF tag antenna is located at the center of the UHF tag antenna, and the location of the HF tag antenna is calculated while considering coupling effects. The designed tag can be used by both the bands for the purposes of logistics and authentication.

In traditional wireless communication systems the main power consumption is due to the actual transmissions power. Therefore, energy-constrained wireless networks have gained considerable research attention in recent years. Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) structure, or multiple antenna communication is one of the techniques that has gain considerable importance in wireless systems and networks. In this paper, BER and throughput performance of MISO system with Go-back-N ARQ(Automatic Repeat Request) technique in wireless networks are analyzed and the energy consumption of MISO-based wireless networks is compared with conventional SISO-based wireless networks. Obtained results show the applicability of MISO system with Go-back-N ARQ technique in wireless networks with smart system design.

In this paper, the performances of representative high resolution direction finding algorithms are evaluated and compared in wideband mobile environments. The angular spread phenomenon in mobile environments is first investigated and then a vector channel model for wideband OFDMA signals is derived. A direction finding system architecture for OFDMA smart antenna systems is proposed and finally the performances of high resolution direction finding algorithms are evaluated in wideband mobile environments by taking the WiBro system as a target system.

This paper presents an efficient technique for interference suppression in IEEE 802.11b WLAN systems. A linearly constrained adaptive array processor which may improve reception performance of WLAN device by reducing co-channel interference signal and multipath effects effectively was proposed. A spatial smoothing method is used to prevent cancellation of a desired signal in a coherent environment and also integral nulling method is employed to improve the array performance in indoor environment. It was shown that the integral nulling approach performed best while the spatial smoothing method performed better than linearly constrained array processing. The performance of the WLAN system may be improved by the proposed methods which reduce co-channel, coherent, and WPAN interferences effectively.

Digital DBS service using Korea Sat starts at Korea Telecom's Yong-in transmission site. Total 6 transmitting stations are needed. At each transmitting station, 4 TV programs are compressed and multiplexed using MPEG-2, modulated into IF, RF signals, then finally transmitted through antenna. At DBS transponder, received signal is down converted, amplified and re-transmitted to earth. At receiver, signal is received by 45cm dish antenna, then wanted program is selected, demultiplexed and decoded. Transmission performance of BER lOE-ll is implemented by using FEe coding and QPSK modulation. For pay TV management, conditional access system, smart card and modem are used.

There will come someday when UAUs can fly into the airspace of manned aircraft in the near future because of the increasing number of operational UAUs together with technologies development. Since pilots of UAVs are on the gound, the equipment for sensing and avoiding obstacles in front is indispensable. In this paper, we analyze functions and interfaces of TCAS II, a collision avoidance device for manned aircraft, then find out whether it is suitable for the collision avoidance device for UAV and problems associated with it, if any. It turns out to be that the onboard directional antenna of TCAS II does not provide a precise directional information, and that the TCAS II is not assumed to be installed alone, but used as supplementary with other device which provides the better precision.

인류는 달을 보며 우주개발에 대한 꿈을 꾸어왔다. 60년대에서 70년대 중반까지 미 소간의 우주경쟁으로 달 탐사에 큰 예산을 들여 마침내 인류를 달에 착륙시켜 달 탐사를 실현할 수 있었다. 이젠 화성에 인류를 보내기 위한 전초기지를 달에 구축하려고 다시금 미국이 달 탐사를 가동시켰다. 이에 따라 세계 여러 나라가 달에 대해 다시 관심을 고조 시키고 있다. 그래서 이 논문에서는 90년대와 최근에 재 시작된 달 탐사위성의 개발동향을 조사하여 기술하였다. 대상 위성 프로젝트는 미국의 클레멘타인과 루나 프로스펙터, 유럽연합의 스마트-1호, 일본의 셀레네, 중국의 창어-1호, 인도의 찬드라얀-1호, 미국의 LRO 달 탐사 궤도선, 러시아의 루나-글로브 위성들의 주요특성과 탑재체, 지상국, 임무궤적 및 달 임무 궤도에 대해 개괄적으로 기술하였다. 기술 특징으로는 위성 제작기술 발전에 따라 경량화에 중점을 두어 위성을 소형화 하였으며, 통신방식에 있어서는 X 및 Ka대역을 사용하여 데이터 전송속도를 현저히 증가 시켰으며, 위성 및 지상의 안테나의 크기를 줄일 수 있었으며, 전기추력기를 사용하여 소형위성으로도 달 탐사를 실현시켰다. 그리고 다른 나라에서 개발되는 달 탐사위성의 개발 예산을 살펴보면 약 1억불 정도이면 소형 급의 위성을 개발하여 달 궤도에 진입시켜 달 과학탐사 임무를 수행할 수 있다고 할 수 있겠다. 따라서 우리나라도 지난 15년 이상 지구궤도 위성을 성공적으로 개발하며 구축한 기술을 바탕으로 달 탐사 위성의 개발에 대한 가능성을 가지고 있다고 본다. 이제 우리나라도 인류의 미래우주개발의 일익을 담당하고자 달 탐사위성 프로젝트를 준비해야한다

Radio, the first broadcasting medium in history, is also the first mobile medium that meets the currently mobile ecology based on mobile communications network. As a result, it is easily approachable to consumers, can easily engage individual consumers, and its program contents have a huge appealing power to individual listeners, allowing it to form intimacy with audiences at the closest distance. However, the listening rating of radio has decreased greatly because it has experienced various changes by many other competitive media such as TV and internet and it has been influenced by relative constant hypothesis. Also, radio now faces a bigger competition due to the emergence of smartphone. In this circumstance, radio showed movements to evolve into a digital radio that presents improved sound, strengthened reception power, and increased number of channels, but it suddenly changed to DMB and portable multimedia DMB is having huge problems in its marketability due to smartphone. Yet, the listening rating of analogue radio broadcasting that remained unchanged was 13.99% in 2014, an increase by 47% from 2011, and the percentage of listeners under the age of 18 increased by 2.4 times from 2011 to 2014, which was a unique and interesting phenomenon. Accordingly, this paper compared the characteristics of internet and radio that have the traits of daily life, information, individuality, participatory, adventurousness, alternative media, expertise, and sound media. The paper then examined the listening method of radio, in which the direct groundwave antenna reception through a vehicular device is the most common form during the use of transportation means. Finally, it sought to investigate the future of radio based on the understanding of the increase in radio listening ratings, especially by comparing it to the characteristics of smart generation that focus on smartphone and the internet The study results demonstrated that entertainment and amusements are attempting at changes while they used to be obtained selectively by the smart generation from fragmentary information. In addition, radio is expected to become an influential medium in the future through its advantages of 'selected information' and reliability. However, considering such possibilities, radio needs to build the expertise and reliability of broadcasting contents much more at the same time as its digitalization, and it will be able to have its own competitiveness by focusing on various experiences and cultural exposures.

In this paper, we present a MIMO-OFDM broadband power line communication (BPLC) for Smart Grid and its associated applications and analyze its performance over the 3-phase 4-wire power line channels. For practical BPLC system simulation, we adopt the statistical power line fading channel model instead of the existing deterministic fading channel models (Zimmermann model, MTL model, and so on). In this paper, we implement $2{\times}2$ and $3{\times}3$ MIMO schemes using 3-phase 4-wire power lines. We investigate the capacity loss and BER performance of the proposed MIMO system by considering the effect of cross-talk between antenna paths. We choose space-frequency coding in order to reduce frequency interference between subcarriers and employ maximum ratio combining (MRC) that achieves both multiple antenna path diversity gain and multiple fading path diversity gain. We evaluate the proposed system performance through computer simulation in terms of the impulse noise index and the capacity loss ratio and compare the different signal combining schemes including MRC, equal gain combing (EGC), and selection combining (SC).
