The proposed modulator is designed by utilizing a conventional structure employing time division technique to realize the 4th order delta-sigma modulator using one op-amp. In order to reduce the influence of KT/C noise, the capacitance in the first and second integrators reused was chosen to be 20pF and capacitance of third and fourth integrators was designed to be 1pF. The stage variable technique in the low power reconfigurable op-amp was used to solve the stability issue due to different capacitance loads for the reduction of KT/C noise. This technique enabled the proposed modulator to reduce the power consumption of 15% with respect to the conventional one. The proposed modulator was fabricated with 0.18um CMOS N-well 1 poly 6 metal process and consumes 305uW at supply voltage of 1.8V. The measurement results demonstrated that SNDR, ENOB, DR, FoM(Walden), and FoM(Schreier) were 66.3 dB, 10.6 bits, 83 dB, 98 pJ/step, and 142.8 dB at the sampling frequency of 256kHz, oversampling ratio of 128, clock frequency of 1.024 MHz, and input frequency of 250 Hz, respectively.

This paper discusses an intelligent digital redesign technique for designing a fuzzy pulse-width-modulated (PWM) control. First when we are given a well-designed fuzzy analog control, the equivalent digital control is intelligently redesigned. Using the similar technique we intelligently redesign the fuzzy PWM control from the intelligently redesigned fuzzy digital control. A stabilizability of the intelligently redesigned PWM control is rigorously analyzed.

본 논문에서는 링크 상황에 따라서 변복조 방식과 코딩 방식을 달리하는 기술인 AMC(Adaptive Modulation and Coding)기능과 연동하는 2 단계 ARQ(Automatic Repeat Request)방식을 제안하여 한정된 무선채널을 여러 종류의 서비스와 여러 가입자가 동시에 공유하는 경우에 발생되는 QoS(Quality of Service) 문제를 해결하고자 한다. 제안한 2 단계 ARQ 방식은 MAC(Medium Access Control) 계층에 위치하여 상위 계층으로부터 IP(Internet Protocol) packet 를 수신한 후 2 단계의 ARQ 동작을 수행함으로써 물리 채널에서 전송 중에 발생되는 오류 확률을 감소시킨다. 따라서 TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)단에서의 재전송 감소에 의한 향상된 성능도 기대할 수가 있겠다.

Purpose: The accurate movement of gantry rotation, collimator and correct application of dose rate are very important to approach the successful performance of Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), because it is tightly interlocked with a complex treatment plan. The interruption and restart of dose delivery, however, are able to occur on treatment by various factors of a treatment machine and treatment plan. If unexpected problems of a treat machine or a patient interrupt the VMAT, the movement of treatment machine for delivering the remaining dose will be restarted at the start point. In this investigation, We would like to know the effect of interruptions and restart regarding dose delivery at VMAT. Materials and Methods: Treatment plans of 10 patients who had been treated at our center were used to measure and compare the dose distribution of each VMAT after converting to a form of digital image and communications in Medicine (DICOM) with treatment planning system (Eclipse V 10.0, Varian, USA). We selected the 6 MV photon energy of Trilogy (Varian, USA) and used OmniPro I'mRT system (V 1.7b, IBA dosimetry, Germany) to analyze the data that were acquired through this measurement with two types of interruptions four times for each case. The door interlock and the beam-off were used to stop and then to restart the dose delivery of VMAT. The gamma index in OmniPro I'mRT system and T-test in Microsoft Excel 2007 were used to evaluate the result of this investigation. Results: The deviations of average gamma index in cases with door interlock, beam-off and without interruption on VMAT are 0.141, 0.128 and 0.1. The standard deviations of acquired gamma values are 0.099, 0.091, 0.071 and The maximum gamma value in each case is 0.413, 0.379, 0.286, respectively. This analysis has a 95-percent confidence level and the P-value of T-test is under 0.05. Gamma pass rate (3%, 3 mm) is acceptable in all of measurements. Conclusion: As a result, We could make sure that the interruption of this investgation are not enough to seriously affect dose delivery of VMAT by analyzing the measured data. But this investigation did not reflect all cases about interruptions and errors regarding the movement of a gantry rotation, collimator and patient So, We should continuously maintain a treatment machine and program to deliver the accurate dose when we perform the VMAT for the many kinds of cancer patients.

목적 : 세기변조방사선치료의 정도관리 중 선량 분포의 비교에 관한 새로운 정량적인 방법을 제시하였다. 이 과정 중에서 선량의 기울기가 큰 영역에서의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 최적화 알고리듬을 사용하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 필름을 통해 측정된 선량분포와 컴퓨터를 통해 구해진 선량분포를 각각 5mm 간격과 lmm 간격의 해상도로 컴퓨터를 이용해 2 차원 선량분포로 구현한다. 그 후 두 선량분포사이의 차이를 각 선량분 포의 원점을 일치시킨 후 구해낸다. 이때 일반적으로 두 선량분포 사이의 차이는 선량의 기울기가 큰 영역에서 상당히 크게 나타나게 되는데 이것은 측정 장비의 원점을 구하는 과정에서 발생되는 이차원 상의 미세한 원점의 불일치 효과로 선량의 차이가 선량의 기울기가 큰 영역에서 더욱 커지기 때문이다. 이 불일치를 보정하기 위해서, 측정된 선량분포를 계산된 선량분포 위에서 lmm 간격으로 이동시켜가면서 선량의 차이를 계산하여 이 값이 최소가 되는 위치를 확인한다. 이때의 이동치는 가속기가 갖는 허용오차 이내에 있어야 하며 이 값은 2mm로 알려져 있다. 이 과정과는 독립적으로 이온 챔버를 통해 측정된 절대선량 값을 이용하여 두 선량분포 사이를 재 규격화한 뒤 차이를 구하게 되면 우리는 5mm 간격의 2 차원 절대선량 분포 비교를 실험상의 오차들 중 가장 크게 작용하는 원점 오차로 인한 오차를 제거한 뒤 수행한 것과 같은 결과를 얻게 된다. 여기서 계산된 선량분포의 해상도는 장비의 허용오차 보다 항상 작아야 한다. 결과 : 머리와 목에 환부를 갖는 여러 환자들에 대한 선량분포 비교 결과를 통해서, 측정된 선량분포와 계산된 선량분포사이의 허용오차 범위에 대한 일시적 기준을 마련하였다. 이 기준은 물론 더 많은 환자들에 대한 선량분포 비교를 통해 개선되어질 수 있다. 결론 : 측정 장비의 원점 불일치의 보정뿐만 아니라 측정 장비의 회전에 의한 오차 보정, 필름의 광학적 밀도에 관한 보정 등 여러 가지 계통적 오차들에 대한 보정들이 선량분포 확인과정의 이해와 그 기준마련에 도움이 되겠지만 우리가 다룬 원점 불일치에 비해서 상대적으로 무시할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 선량분포 확인의 최종목표인 3 차원 선량분포 확인의 실제 적용을 위한 연구가 최적화 알고리듬을 이용하여 실험 중에 있다.

Most of modern mobile communication systems require low distortion in addition to high power and high efficiency characteristics for power amplifiers. The power amplifiers cause adjacent channel interference by intermodulation and spectral regrowth. In order to analyze the effects of the power amplifier on communication system, a 22Mcps spreaded digital modulated signal source and a ISM band power amplifier have been constructed, ACPR characteristics are simulated and measured for the RZ and NRZ encoded signals.

In this paper, we propose an efficient symbol mapping method based on LLR (log-likelihood ratio) statistic for HARQ employing CoRe (constellation rearrangement) with 64QAM. The signal constellations for 64QAM with limited number of retransmissions are selected by the proposed mapping rule. Then we determine the transmission order of selected constellations. The proposed scheme reduces the performance deviation between transmit symbols so as to improve the system performance. Through simulation results, the proposed and existing CoRe mapping methods are compared with respect to error rate and throughput in MIMO-OFDM system over fading channel and we confirm the applicability of the proposed scheme in practical wireless communications environment.
