A very low complexity QRD-M algorithm based on limited search area is proposed for MIMO systems. The conventional QRD-M algorithm calculates Euclidean distance between all constellation symbols and the temporary detection symbol at each layer. We found that performance will not be degraded even if we adaptively restrict the search area of the candidate symbols only to the neighboring points of temporary detection symbol according to the channel condition at each layer. As a channel condition indicator, we employ the channel gain ratio among the layers without necessity of SNR estimation. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme effectively achieves near optimal performance while maintaining the overall average computation complexity much smaller than the conventional QRD-M algorithm.

As the importance of GNSS system increases, the necessity of independent system is increased also. When the independent GNSS system is required, GNSS signal design is necessary with requirement definition. This paper suggests the design method of GNSS signal using the analysis result of receiver performance. First, the candidates are defined based on the design elements. Then the receiver performance of the candidates is analyzed based on the performance evaluation parameters. The weights of performance evaluation parameter are defined in order to consider the receiver performance in a various aspects. Finally, the calculation of normalized performance evaluation parameters and weights are derived to obtain the compared value for signal selection. Spreading code, modulation method and carrier frequency are considered as design parameters. Also, correlation width, DLL PLL thermal noise jitter, frequency bandwidth and side lobe peak ratio are considered as performance evaluation parameters. And positioning performance, robustness to noise, bandwidth efficiency are considered as the performance aspects. This paper analyzes the performance of each candidate using software based simulator and suggest the method to compare objectively the performance of each candidates.

This paper describes the design and the test results of the receiver-downconverter module for a Ka-band Satellite Payload. The developed module is not only a downconverter that convert the signal of 30.6 GHz∼31.0 GHz to the signal of 20.8 GHz∼21.2 GHz but also is a receiver that has the function of low noise amplification in the front stage. It has been fabricated and tested by the qualified satellite component manufacturing process and it shows the best performance of the receiver-downconverter modules operating at Ka-band frequency up to date. The module has the performance of 1.9 dB-NF, 55 dB-Gain, and 58 dBc-C/I3 fur the two tone signals of -59 dBm input power respectively at ambient temperature. It is a small and light module with the size of 93 mm${\times}$84 mm${\times}$26 mm and the weight of 240 g.

The clock recovery module of gap filler for satellite DMB is proposed. Proposed module sustains the output frequency of 10 MHz whether the received signal from the satellite is unstable or cut off within 0.5 sec. The advantages of this module is without frequency tuning at regular interval and low material cost. This module is fabricated by using CPLD as clock recovery IC and new type of loop filter for satisfying the fast lock time and long hold over time simultaneously. The measured performance of the fabricated module has a holdover time of 11 sec at frequency stability less than 0.01 ppm, and phase noise of -113 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz offset.

Due to GPS signal's vulnerability of jamming attack, various enhancement techniques are needed. Among variety of techniques, we focused on GPS receiver's anti-jamming techniques. There are many anti-jamming methods at GPS receivers which include filtering methods in time domain, frequency domain and space domain. However, these methods are ineffective to signals, which include both jamming and noise. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a jamming separation scheme by using a BSS method in a jamming environment. As separated GPS signals include noise after the jamming separation method, it is difficult to receive accurate GPS signals. For this reason, this paper also proposes a wavelet de-noising method to effectively eliminate noise. Experimental results of this paper are based on a real field test data of an integrated GPS/QZSS/Wi-Fi positioning system. At the end, the simulation result demonstrates its superiority by showing improved positioning accuracy.

A GNSS augmentation system provides precise position information using corrected GNSS pseudorange measurements. Common bias errors are corrected by PRC (Pseudorange Correction) between reference stations and a rover. However non-common errors (Ionospheric and Tropospheric noise error) are not corrected. Using position error variance this paper analyzes non-common errors (noise errors) of ionosphere and troposphere wet vapor.

This study is the analysis and verification process of the L-band satellite communications repeater thought PCB & circuit EM analysis. System performance can be vulnerable to various spurious inside the L-band satellite transponder, power conversion board, digital signal board, TM/TC board, such as control panels and blocks that are linked signal components when the winch is increased due to the noise component. So the whole system can cause performance degradation. PCB resonance analysis and EM simulation can be easily analyzed for a variety of optimal. Also, by setting the ports on the PCB, H/W designer wants to can easily analyze system.

위치, 항법 및 시각정보가 육상, 해상, 항공 등 지구상 거의 모든 공간에서 다양한 목적으로 활용되고 있는 위성항법시스템(GNSS, Global Navigation Satelite System)은 그 중요성이 더욱 높아지고 있으며 미국이 제공해 주는 GPS의 고의잡음(SA)제거 및 성능 향상을 통하여 GNSS를 이용한 응용분야의 발전은 더욱 확대되고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 위성항법시스템의 P.N.T(Position, Navigation and Timing) 서비스 기능을 사회의 전박적인 주요 인프라 시설에 기초적인 원리의 정확성을 더하고 지속성과 무결함성을 제공할 수 있기 때문에 신뢰성을 가지고 여러분야에 활용되고 있으나 지상에서 약20,200km 고도에 위치한 인공위성에서 미약한 신호를 송신함으로써 GNSS 수신기가 의도적이든 비의도적이든 동일한 주파수 밴드의 신호에 영향을 받을 경우 정상적인 역할을 할 수 없다. 우리나라의 경우 P.N.T 서비스 기반 자체가 GPS에 전적으로 의존하고 있으며 유사시 이를 대체할 항법 시스템을 별도로 갖추고 있지 않고 있어 미국의 고의적인 GPS 서비스의 중단이나 주변국가의 방해전파 송신으로 인한 GPS 신호 중단사태가 발생할 경우에는 우리나라 국가 주요 인프라에 치명적인 피해를 입힐 수 있기 때문에 대체항법을 시스템을 구축하여 독자적인 P.N.T 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 시스템 구축이 국가적인 차원에서 절실하게 필요하다.

Performance characteristics of the position-domain Hatch filter is analyzed for differential global navigation satellite systems. It is shown that the position-domain Hatch filter generates white measurement residual sequences, which is beneficial property for fault detection. It is also shown that the position-domain Hatch filter yields more accurate a priori state estimate than the position-domain Kalman-type filter. Thus, it can be concluded that the position-domain Hatch filter is beneficial in wide application areas where fault-tolerance and accuracy are required at the same time.
