Recently, sub-micron CMOS technologies have taken the place of III-V materials in a number of areas in integrated circuit designs, in particular even for the applications of gjgabit optical communication applications due to its low cost, high integration level, low power dissipation, and short turn-around time characteristics. In this paper, a four-channel transimpedance amplifier (TIA) array is realized in a standard 0.35mm CMOS technology Each channel includes an optical PIN photodiode and a TIA incorporating the fully differential regulated cascode (RGC) input configuration to achieve effectively enhanced transconductance(gm) and also exploiting the inductive peaking technique to extend the bandwidth. Post-layout simulations show that each TIA demonstrates the mid-band transimpedance gain of 59.3dBW, the -3dB bandwidth of 2.45GHz for 0.5pF photodiode capacitance, and the average noise current spectral density of 18.4pA/sqrt(Hz). The TIA array dissipates 92mw p in total from a single 3.3V supply The four-channel RGC TIA array is suitable for low-power, high-speed optical interconnect applications.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of a direct-conversion UHF RFID reader with the range correlation effects of the phase noise. Since a UHF RFIB system uses the same oscillator to generate the transmitted carrier and the local oscillation, the periodic interference and phase noise reduction effects occur due to time delay between two signals. Through exact theory and simulation, we verify how to cancel the periodic interference phenomena using I/Q diversity combining technique. And, we analyze phase noise reduction effects due to range correlation as a function of the tag-reader distance and the offset frequency Using these results, we simulate the symbol-error-rate performance with respect to phase noise with and without range correation effects. We show that the phase noise of the local oscillator has little effect on the symbol-error-rate performance because of phase noise reduction by range correlation.

To investigate SPICE noise model and the behavior of its parameters, 1/f noise of NMOS devices fabricated by BiCMOS process is measured and compared to the various noise models and measured results. For the long channel devices, bias dependence of the drain current noise power spectral density $S_{Id}$ of NMOS is similar to the previous results. Equivalent gate noise power spectral density $S_{Vg}$ shows weak dependence on the gate and drain voltages in long channel NMOS as the previous results. However, it is shown that most of published noise models are difficult to apply to short channel devices. Therefore, in this study, with comparison of our experimental results, we have tried to find the model of 1/f noise, appropriate for our NMOS device fabricated by BiCMOS process.

To inspect how the different sensitivities in BAS(or BIS) modulate on the HRV pattern stimulated by positive or negative affective sound, we measured the electrocardiogram(ECG) of 25 students(male : 14), consisted of 4 groups depending on the BAS(or BIS) sensitivity, during listening meditation music or being exposed to noise. The power spectral density(PSD) of HRV was derived from the ECG, and the power of HRV was calculated for 3 major frequency ranges(low frequency[LF], medium frequency[MF], and high frequency[HF]). We found that the index of MF/(LF+HF), during listening music, was higher significantly in the individuals with a low BIS but high BAS than in the individuals with a low sensitivity in both BIS and BAS. Especially in the former group, there was a tendency that the index was higher during listening music than during being exposed to noise. For individuals with a high BIS, regardless of the BAS sensitivity, the difference of this index values was not significant. From these results we suggest that individuals with a low BIS but high BAS are more sensitive to positive affective stimuli than other groups, and the index of MF/(LF+HF) is applicable to evaluate positive and negative affects.

After a single-stage, second-order, multiple-feedback ${\Delta}-{\Sigma}$ modulator and a two-stage, second-order MASH ${\Delta}-{\Sigma}$ modulator were analyzed and simulated using Simulink and Matlab and their characteristics were compared, the following result was obtained: 1) The two ${\Delta}-{\Sigma}$ modulators do not have group delay distortion. 2) The characteristics of the noise shaping are nearly identical. As a result of the noise shaping, the power spectral densities have slope of 40 dB/dec. 3) There was no spurious tone. 4) The input range of the two modulators is from -1 to +1 in common. 5) Because the output of the two-stage MASH modulator is 2-bits (4-levels), design of frequency dividers and charge pumps of PLL are more demanding.

RF energy harvesting technology is a promising technology for generating the electrical power from ambient RF signal to operate low-power consumption devices(eg. sensor) in wireless communication networks. This paper, motivated by this and building upon existing CR(Cognitive Radio) network model, proposes a optimal control policy for RF energy harvesting CR networks model where secondary users that have low power consumption harvest ambient RF energy from transmission by nearby active primary users, while periodically sensing and opportunistically accessing the licensed spectrum to the primary user's network. We consider that primary users and secondary users are distributed as Poisson point processes and contact with their intended receivers at fixed distances. Finally we can derive the optimal frame duration, transmission power and density of secondary user from the proposed model that can maximize the secondary users's throughput under the given several conditions and suggest future directions of research.

Satellite communication system uses a high non-linear HPA(high power amplifiers) in the earth station and satellite transponder. Therefore, it is important to consider the nonlinear effect of HPA on the communication system. In this paper, we find the variation of power spectrum density by nonlinearity HPA and the change of harmonic component according to IBO (input back-off). When the BPSK is used for satellite communication system, we analyze BER performance including the external co-channel interference (CCI) and the adjacent channel interference (ACI) resulting from the HPA nonlinearity. BER degrades as ACI magnitude grows up when the uplink SNR, uplink SIR (signal to co-channel interference power ratio) and downlink SIR are constant at some level. In case there is only non-linear HPA in the satellite, it is shown that BER considerably depends on the ACI magnitude ACI. When there are two non-linear HPAs in the both earth station and satellite, much BER degradation results from the CCI and ACI.

백색 유기발광소자는 매우 얇고, 가볍고, 저전력 구동이 가능하다는 점에서 전색 디스플레이나 조명 시장에서 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 고효율을 가진 백색 유기발광소자의 제작을 위해서는 일반적으로 쉐도우 마스크를 사용하여 발광 패턴을 만들기 때문에 제작 비용이 비싸다는 단점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 제작 공정이 간단하고, 저비용의 장점을 가지는 용액 공정을 사용하여 나노 구멍 구조를 가지는 적색 고분자와 청색 저분자의 혼합 발광층으로 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 이 나노 구멍 구조를 가지는 poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV)/ 2-methyl-9,10-di(2-naphthyl)anthracene (MADN) 혼합 발광층의 전기적, 광학적 특성을 분석하기 위하여 MEH-PPV/MADN 적층 구조를 가지는 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하여 비교, 분석하였다. 나노 구멍 구조를 가지는 혼합 발광층의 발광 스펙트럼에서 적층 구조보다 청색 파장대의 빛의 비율을 높일 수 있었다. 그 이유는 나노 구멍 구조를 가지는 혼합 발광층에서 정공수송층인 poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) 층과 청색 발광층 사이의 일부분 접합부분의 정공 주입 때문이다. 또한, 혼합 발광층을 가진 백색 유기발광소자의 전류 밀도와 휘도는 구멍을 가진 MEH-PPV 층 때문에 상당히 증가하는 것을 알 수 있다. 혼합 발광층을 가진 백색 유기발광소자의 적색과 청색의 균형은 나노 구멍의 크기를 통해서 조절이 가능하고, 색 안정성은 정공 주입층과 청색 발광층 사이의 직접 접촉에 의한 구동 전압의 변화를 따라 증가시킬 수 있었다. 그 결과, 혼합 발광층을 가지는 백색 유기발광소자에서 적색과 청색 발광층의 발광 균형은 스핀 코팅 속도가 3,000 rpm일 때, 최적의 결과를 나타내었다. 이러한 실험 결과들은 저분자/고분자로 이루어진 혼합 발광층을 가진 백색 유기발광소자에서의 전자와 정공의 전달 및 발광 메커니즘을 분석할 수 있었다.

Sounds based machine fault diagnosis recovers all the studies that aim to detect automatically abnormal sound on machines using the acoustic emission by these machines. Conventional methods that use mathematical models have been found inaccurate because of the complexity of the industry machinery systems and the obvious existence of nonlinear factors such as noises. Therefore, any fault diagnosis issue can be treated as a pattern recognition problem. We propose here an automatic fault diagnosis method of hand drills using discrete wavelet transform(DWT) and pattern recognition techniques such as artificial neural networks(ANN). We first conduct a filtering analysis based on DWT. The power spectral density(PSD) is performed on the wavelet subband except for the highest and lowest low frequency subband. The PSD of the wavelet coefficients are extracted as our features for classifier based on ANN the pattern recognition part. The results show that the proposed method can be effectively used not only to detect defects but also to various automatic diagnosis system based on sound.
