In recent wireless communications, direct conversion transceiver or If sampling SDR-based receivers have being designed as an alternative to conventional transceiver topologies. In direct conversion receiver a.chitectu.e, the 1.equency/phase offset between the RF input signal and the local oscillator signal is a major impairment factor even though the conventional AFC/APC compensates the service deterioration due to the offset. To rover the limited tracking range of the conventional method and effectively aid compensation scheme in terms of I/Q channel imbalances, the frequency/phase offset compensation in RF-front end signal stage is proposed in this paper. In RF-front end, the varying phase offset besides the fixed large frequency/phase offset are corrected by using early-late phase compensator. A more simple frequency and phase tacking function in digital signal processing stage of direct conversion receiver is effectively available by an ingenious frequency/phase offset tracking method in RF front-end stage.

In this paper, we present a carrier recovery circuit using the polarity-decision algorithm that recovers a phase and a frequency error simultaneously. The proposed algorithm catches a frequency error based on a differential of an angular velocity of the signal constellations. Using the differential of a phase error may compensate the frequency error. The symbol prediction method in the proposed algorithm accumulates the symbols, which makes easy to calculate a phase differential. The hardware size of the algerian is small since we use Q data or I only to get phase information. As a result, the algerian shows a pull-in range of normalized frequency error 0.5 under AWGN 15dB.

In this paper, the method is proposed that the equivalent result can be obtained by compensating the variation of gain and phase in the comparison with the result of near-field measurement which is obtained in the steady state, although the gain and phase variation of rx-channels occurred in the near-field rx-measurement of digital active phased array antenna. The proposed concept has the time section for monitoring the state of the rx-channels through the calibration path in the measurement timeline, and is the method for compensating the variation of state. For validating the proposed method, the fabricated X-band digital active phased array antenna and the planar near-field measurement facility is utilized. The proposed method is validated in the comparison with the compensated pattern which the unstable state of rx-channels is calibrated and the reference pattern obtained under the steady state of the rx-channels.

MRI 스캔중 촬상 대상물의 화강평면내에서의 회전은 MRI 신호에 위상오차와 불균일 표본화를 일으킨다. 따라서, 아티팩트가 포함된 MR 화상의 화질열화를 개선하기 위하여 다음과 같은 방법들을 제안한다. 우선, 미리 주어진 회전파라메타써 쌍일처 보간과 중첩 특성을 이용해서 k 공간 불균일 표본화 데이터를 수정하는 알고리즘과, 2차원 회전운동의 회전각은 이미 알려져 있고, 회전중심 위치가 미지인 경우에 대해 위상보정에 기초한 아티팩트를 보정하는 알고리즘 및 회전중심과 각도가 모두 미지인 2차원 회전운동에 대해 아티팩느를 보정하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 때, 미지운동 파라메타를 예측하기 위해 찰상대상물의 경계바깥쪽에서 이상적인 MR 화상의 에너지는 최소가 되고, 활상 대상물의 회전이 존재할 때 측정된 에너지가 증가한다는 성질을 이용했다. 이러만 성질을 이용해서 시뮬레이션 화상에 적용한 결과 제안한 방법에 대한 유효성을 확인하였다.

SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) interferometry 기술은 co-registration, 정밀궤도 계산, phase unwrapping, 지형보정과 같은 기술로 구성되어있다. 구속화된 위상값을 절대 위상값으로 변환하는 과정인 phase unwrapping 기술은 정밀지형고도를 얻는데 있어서 핵심기술이다. 본 연구에서는 JERS-1 SAR 영상으로부터 interferogram을 구하고, 이로부터 추출된 위상정보를 이용하여 branch cut(Goldstein et. al, 1988), minimum discontinuity(Flynn, 1997) 그리고 minimum $L^p$-norm(Ghiglia and Romero, 1996)방법 적용결과에 대한 비교 분석을 실시하였다. Goldstein 알고리즘은 수행속동가 매우 빠르지만 residue를 연결한 branch cut에 의해 분활된 영역 내에서, 서로 다른 적분 경로로 인해 위상이 단절되었다. 영상내의 모든 화소에서 절대 위상을 구한 minimum discontinuity와 minimum $L^p$-norm 알고리즘 수행 결과는 상관관계가 0.995로 매우 유사하였는데, 가중된 불연속선의 합을 최소화하는 minimum discontinuity 알고리즘이 minimum $L^p$-norm에 비해 영상 일부 지역에서 발생하는 위상 오차를 전파시키지 않는다는 장점이 있다. Minimum $L^p$-norm 방법은 다른 두 방법과 달리 위상정보 내에 많은 잡음이 있더라도 적절한 해를 구할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 각 방법은 대상 자료의 특성에 따라 효율성이 있으나 Flynn의 알고리즘이 지역적 특성과 무관하게 가장 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

This paper proposes an improved phase estimation method for AM(Amplitude Modulation) range measurement system. The previous phase estimation method induces errors by Doppler shift of a moving target. The proposed method compensates phase estimation error through the ADC(Adaptive Doppler Correction) to take the Doppler shift, thus can improve distance measurement accuracy. When compared with the previous method through simulation results, the Doppler shift compensation and accuracy are improved by 94.7% and 50%, respectively. Target distance error in an acoustic tank is estimated to be 7.7cm, which confirms that the proposed method can be used to estimate the distance in the marine environment.

In this paper, a compensation method of the amplitude and phase errors from the T/R(Transmit/Receive) modules in an active SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) system is introduced. The errors are defined and classified, and characterized by analyzing the measurement data acquired from the pilot test. To compensate these errors, a control methodology of T/R modules output is proposed. Before the compensation is applied, 16 T/R modules integrated on the active SAR antenna show the amplitude in 28.2~29.0 dBm and the phase in $101.7^{\circ}{\sim}165.2^{\circ}$. After the compensation, the amplitude and phase are distributed in 27.4~28.0 dBm and $116.1^{\circ}{\sim}120.0^{\circ}$ respectively. The antenna beam patterns generated by the array theory with the distributions are compared, and the proposed method is verified as good to apply for the active SAR system.

In this study, a method of error compensation for channel gain imbalance, phase imbalance and local oscillator leakage in the modulator of frequency direct conversion is suggested. The compensation of channel imbalance can be carried out by using the received power after transmitting test signal. By applying this method, the phase imbalance conversion with frequency can be easily compensated since this method is rarely affected by the transmission channel. It is confirmed that the algorithm proposed in this study(iteration coefficient=11) converges faster than conventional algorithm(iteration coefficient=43). From the numerical results, the DC-offset, channel gain, phase imbalance compensation coefficient and iteration number converges into($f_1$=0.0199999, $f_2$=-0.050001, $C_{22}$=0.9133, $C_{12}$=-0.0524, N=13) when the local oscillator leakage is not considered. However, it converges into($f_1$=-0.02, $f_2$=-2.2476, $C_{22}$=0.9133, $C_{12}$=-0.0524, N=16) when the local oscillator leakage is considered.
