SCA(Software Communications Architecture)는 SDR(Software Defined Radio)를 위한 표준 플랫폼으로, 어떤 플랫폼에서도 SCA 표준을 이용하여 구현된 시스템이라면 SCA 규격을 지켜 작성된 소프트웨어 모듈을 실행할 수 있도록 하고 있다. SDR은 기존의 하드웨어로 구현하였던 무선 통신 시스템을 모두 소프트웨어로 구현하고자 하는 기술이지만, 임베디드 시스템의 경우에는 프로세서의 성능이 현저히 떨어지기 때문에 실시간 신호 처리를 보장할 수가 없다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 무선통신의 성능을 보장하기 위해서는 범용 프로세서와 함께 DSP나 FPGA와 같은 특화된 하드웨어의 사용이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 경우에는 웨이브폼 어플리케이션 작성을 위해서 하드웨어와 소프트웨어의 파티셔닝도 고려해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 SCA 플랫폼에서의 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 빠르게 생성하는 방법을 제안하여 다양한 하드웨어를 사용하는 플랫폼에서의 최종 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 위한 설계 공간 탐색(Design space exploration)을 도와, 내장형 시스템에서도 효율적으로 실행 가능한 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 개발할 수 있도록 한다.

The waveform data of the Airborne Bathymetric LiDAR (ABL; LiDAR: Light Detection And Ranging) system provides data with improved accuracy, resolution, and reliability compared to the discrete-return data, and increases the user's control over data processing. Furthermore, we are able to extract additional information about the return signal. Waveform decomposition is a technique that separates each echo from the received waveform with a mixture of water surface and seabed reflections, waterbody backscattering, and various noises. In this study, a new waveform decomposition technique based on a Gaussian model was developed to improve the point extraction performance from the ABL waveform data. In the existing waveform decomposition techniques, the number of decomposed echoes and decomposition performance depend on the peak detection results because they use waveform peaks as initial values. However, in the study, we improved the approximation accuracy of the decomposition model by adding the estimated potential peak candidates to the initial peaks. As a result of an experiment using waveform data obtained from the East Coast from the Seahawk system, the precision of the decomposition model was improved by about 37% based on evaluating RMSE compared to the Gaussian decomposition method.

The existing military satellite communication system was based on geostationary satellites equipped with special communication payloads against enemy's jamming and signal reception. With the advent of new weapon systems such as unmanned systems, the need for low-orbit satellite-based communication system is increasing. This paper introduces various waveform technologies suitable for cube satellite-based communication system and the operational concept of a future military nanosatellite communication system.

In this paper, satellite data link waveform is proposed which is based on the waveform of Link-16 but LDPC code is studied instead of CCSK code in order to be optimized to satellite nonlinear channel environment and transmission characteristics. And the DSM (Demux, Selective CH switch, and Mux) transponder structure is suggested which can remove all of the jamming signal out of the transmission signal band and convert uplink hopping frequency to desired ones of downlink. The results of BER and anti-jamming performance analysis shows that the required Eb/No and processing gain in the worst case partial band jammer of the proposed waveform are 2.5dB and 52dB respectively and the anti-jamming capacity improvement of DSM transponder is maximum 2dB.

The software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio communication technology that can reconfigure necessary application software on a common hardware platform to deal with several kind of radio communication environment. It is necessary for a system that can control and analyze functionalities of a system in order to verify the SCA-based reconfigurable middleware platform, SCARLET that implements the SDR technology. In this paper, we propose and implement the architecture of the waveform manager that is connected with SCARLET and performs management and control functionalities. We verify the performance of the waveform manager by testing each functionality of the overall system that uses the SCARLET middleware platform.

Link-16 is a up-to-date tactical data link used in the armed forces of U.S. and NATO. In order to guarantee the required capabilities of anti-jamming and low probability of detection, Link-16 uses the techniques of frequency hopping and spreading code etc. In this paper, under Nakagami fading channels, we ananlyze the symbol error rates (SERs) of JTIDS/Link-16-type waveform based on both the single- and double-pulse schemes by considering the partial band noise jamming and the pulse jamming models, respectively.

Link-16 is a representative TDL operated by US air force and NATO and supports structure of Multi-net. Under Multi-net, military operation can be conducted effectively since terminal nodes in Link-16 hop over total frequency band simultaneously. As air traffic is rapidly increasing, new aeronautical system is introduced or existing system should be expanded to accommodate increasing air traffic and frequency band assigned for operating this system is scarce. It is scheduled to implement frequency remapping to solve frequency scarcity. With limited frequency band for operating Link-16, as frequency remapping is implemented, degradation of Multi-net performance can happen since multiple access interference in Link-16 is increasing so it is difficult to conduct multiple military operations. Thus, Group-based frequency hopping scheme is proposed to solve this problem. We verified the performance of the proposed scheme is improved.

In this paper, an adaptive digital automatic gain control(AGC) algorithm with two stages is proposed. AGC technique is crucial for mobile communication equipment because path loss in wireless channel and gain fluctuation in receiver front-end continuously change the received signal strength. Furthermore, adaptive criteria should be applied to the design of AGC algorithm in order to support many waveforms with one SDR communication device. With these reasons, a two-stage structure is proposed to satisfy both flexibility and adaptiveness. Compared with conventional method, it also requires shorter convergence time. Numerical results show that the gain value of variable gain amplifier(VGA) is converged within proper time and proposed scheme controls the input level of analog to digital converter(ADC) to be stable during long range of time.
