In this paper, we introduce the time-domain equalizer in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems using orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. Since OFDM system inserts guard intervals, it shows robust performance against multi-path fading. However, in Doppler channel, inter-carrier interference (ICI) occurs because an orthogonality of sub-carriers does not maintain. A least squares (LS) algorithm is common method of time-domain equalizer, but if a channel length is longer, the performance deteriorates by noise. The multi-path fading is a summation of the different delay signal. And that has sparse properties in time-domain. Because the OMP algorithm of the compressive sensing (CS) algorithm restores the channel by choosing the important elements of sparse channel, it can reduce the influence of noise. We simulate the performance of time-domain equalizer in OFDM system with various channel environments using OMP algorithm compared with other equalization method.

It is necessary to receive telegrams transmitted by transponder tags installed along the track in order to detect the exact position of a high-speed train. In a high-speed railway environment, telegrams can be corrupted by the electromagnetic interference that comes from onboard electric train power equipment or wayside devices. In this study, we verified the railway environment compatibility of a high-speed transponder system developed as a train position detection system. We installed transponder tags on the Honam high-speed line and measured the number of error-free telegrams received from the transponder tag while the HEMU-430X was running at 268km/h~334km/h. Based on the measurement, we estimated the length of the contact zone formed between the transponder reader and tag. Field test results allow us to estimate how many error-free telegrams can be received when HEMU-430X is at speeds up to 400km/h.

Mach-Zehnder type traveling-wave Ti：LiNb $O_3$ optical modulators were designed and fabricated. Optimum parameters of optical waveguides were calculated by means of the FDM. Design of CPW traveling-wave electrodes were performed by the FEM in the active region and by the CMM in the input/output section to obtain the conditions of MW effective index and impedance matching. From the measured S parameters, MW characteristics of the traveling-wane electrodes were extracted to be ${\alpha}_m$=0.05426 $\sqrt{f}$, $N_{eff}$=2.2025, and $Z_{c}$=39 ${\Omega}$. The calculated optical response R($\omega$) showed the 3 dB bandwidth of 10 GHz.z..

The electromagnetic characteristics of FCEVs (fuel cell electric vehicles) are much different from the existing combustion engine cars as well as hybrid, plug-in-hybrid, and pure electric vehicles due to the high voltage/current generated by a fuel cell stack which uses a compressed hydrogen gas reacted with oxygen. To operate fuel cell stack efficiently, BOP (Balance of Plant) which is consisted of many motors in water pump, air blower, and hydrogen recycling pump as well as inverters for these motors is essential. Furthermore, there are also electric systems for entertainment, information, and vehicle control such as navigation, broadcasting, vehicle dynamic control systems, and so on. Since these systems are connected by high voltage or general cables, EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) analysis for high voltage and general cable of FCEV is the most important element to prevent the possible electric functional safety errors. In this paper, electromagnetic fields by high voltage and general cables for FCEVs is studied. From numerical analysis results, total time harmonic electromagnetic field strength from high voltage and general cables have difference of 13~16 dB due to ground effect by impedance matching. The EMI results of FECV at 10 m distance shows difference of 41 dB at 30 MHz and 54 dB at 230 MHz compared with only general cable routing.

In this paper, we report Mach Zehnder Interleaver of optical fiber type is fabricated by the fabrication system only for interfermeter design, and it is used $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. The optical fiber is very sensitive in the thermal variation around. Thus, When fabrication the prototype, it is applied a technique to compensate the optical thermal effect because the center wavelength at the output is shifted according to the thermal variation around. it can he done by applying a substrate with high thermal expansion coefficient as well as an adjusting the position between two optical fiber couplers. Consequently, the output wavelength is shifted within 0.05 nm when the surrounding temperature varies until $60^{\circ}C$.

This paper describes on-line retrainable RBF network in order to control the coiling temperature for a hot coil strip at Pohang Iron & Steel Company(POSCO). The proposed neural network can be used for improving conventional rule-based lookup table, which generates a heat transmission coefficient. To cope with time-varying characteristics of hot coil process, additional synaptic weights for on-line retraining purposes are introduced to hidden-to-output weights of conventional RBF network. Those weights are locally adjusted to newly incoming test data while preserving old information trained with off-line past data. Hence the effect of catastrophic interference can be greatly alleviated with the proposed network. In addition, rejection scheme is introduced for reliability concerns. From the experimental results applied to the actual process, it is noticed that overall control performance represents about 2.2% increase compared to the conventional one.

The system combined layered space-time processing and space-time trellis codes (STTC) provide high transmission rate as well as diversity and coding gain without bandwidth expansion. In this paper, two layered receiver structures are proposed. One is the LSTT-MMSE in which received bit streams are decoupled by interference nulling and then decoded by separate STTC decoders. The decoded outputs are cancelled from the received signal before advancing to the next layer detection. The other is LSTT-Whitening employing whitening rather than nulling. The receiver employing whitening process shows several advantages on diversity gain and the required number of receive antennas compare to the convolutional coded space-time processing. The proposed receivers use different decoding order scheme according to each interference suwression. The (4, 3) LSTT-Whitening receiver still achieves 1㏈ gain over the (4, 4) LSTT-MMSE and the (4, 4) coded layered space-time processing.

A novel high power factor Dual Half Bridge Series Resonant Inverter (DHB-SRI) for an induction heating appliance with multiple loads is proposed to remove the interferential acoustic noise caused by the difference between operating frequencies of adjacent loads. The circuit enables independent full power range control of two induction heating elements by one inverter circuit and has minimum switching losses due to the zero voltage switching characteristic. According to the mode analysis, I will explain the operation of the proposed circuit. To evaluate the required cooling capacity, loss analysis is performed through deriving some loss equations. In order to obtain the power factor correction capability and to lessen the system size, suitable design guides are given. Using the designed values, the proto-type circuit with 2.8kW power consumption for each induction heating element is built and tested to verify the operation of the proposed circuit.

This paper suggests the novel light-weight signal processing algorithm for wireless sensor network applications which needs low computing complexity and power consumption. Exponential average method (EA) is utilized by real time, to process the magnetometer signal which is analyzed to understand the own physical characteristic in time domain. EA provides the robustness about noise, magnetic drift by temperature and interference, furthermore, causes low memory consumption and computing complexity for embedded processor. Hence, optimal parameter of proposal algorithm is extracted by statistical analysis. Using general and precision magnetometer, detection probability over 90% is obtained which restricted by 5% false alarm rate in simulation and using own developed magnetometer H/W, detection probability over 60~70% is obtained under 1~5% false alarm rate in simulation and experiment.
