This paper proposes improved detection schemes for concealed micro-electronic devices using clustering and classification of radio frequency harmonics in order to protect intellectual property rights. In general, if a radio wave with a specific fundamental frequency is propagated from the transmitter of a classifier to a concealed object, the second and the third harmonics will be returned as the radio wave is reflected. Using this principle, we exploit the fuzzy c-means clustering and the ${\kappa}$-nearest neighbor classification for detecting diverse concealed objects. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme can detect electronic devices and metal devices in various learning environments by efficient classification. Thus, the proposed schemes can be utilized as an effective detection method for concealed micro-electronic device to protect intellectual property rights.

In this paper, we investigate a spectrum sharing scheme based on the interference temperature (IT), that is a recently introduced receiver-centric metric by FCC. We extend the existing frequency sharing procedure for single CR to the one for multiple CRs (or secondary users, SUs). In the proposed interference model, we consider the practical operating characteristics of primary users (PUs), stochastically activated (ON)/deactivated (OFF) at the time axis, and analyze quantitatively the CR user capacity based on the model. We define the instantaneous capacity for idle time-slot channel allocation and the mean capacity averaging this instantaneous capacity and use them for a proper frequency sharing. Apart from existing schemes, the proposed frequency sharing scheme changes the frequency parameters adaptively depending on the channel characteristics and does not need any sensing information from PUs. Through computer simulation, we verify the proposed model.

다중 반송파를 사용하는 직접 확산 코드 분할 다중 접속 방식에서는 다중 사용자들에 의해서 시스템의 성능에 영향을 미치는 문제인 다중 사용자 간섭이 발생된다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 사용된 기법이 다중 사용자 검출이다. 기존 방안으로 부공간 최소 평균 제곱 에러 다중 사용자 검출기가 존재한다. 이 검출기는 정확한 타이밍과 채널에 대한 정보가 필요하다. 이에 이점을 극복하기 위해서 부공간 MMSE 구조에 적응 구조를 더하여 검출 능력을 향상 시키고자 하였다. 모의 실험 결과 제안된 검출기가 기존 검출기 보다 BER 10/sup -3/ 기준에서 약 0.5[dB]의 신호대 잡음 이득을 얻을 수 있음을 나타내고 있다. 따라서 제안된 검출기가 기존 검출기보다 더 나은 성능을 지니고 있음을 알 수 있다.

This paper analyzes the performance for an improved multistage parallel interference cancellation (PIC) technique with a reverse-link synchronous transmission technique (RLSTT) for DS-CDMA system in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel with an imperfect power control scheme. The performance degradation due to power control error (PCE), which is approximated by a log-normally distributed random variable, is estimated as a function of the standard deviation of the PCE. The uncoded bit error performance is evaluated in order to estimate the system capacity. Comparing with the conventional one-stage PIC system, we show achievable gain around $60\%$ by the RLSTT even in the presence of PCE. We conclude that the capacity can be further improved via RLSTT, which alleviates the detrimental effects of the PCE

An Interference Cancellation Wireless Repeater transmitts directly amplified the RF signal input to extend the coverage of the base station. Such a repeater inevitably suffers from the feedback interferences due to the environment and the adaptive Interference Cancelling System(ICS) is necessary. In this paper, the Variable Stepsize Complex Sign -Sign(VSCSS) LMS algorithm for ICS is presented. The algorithm can be implemented without multiplication/division arithmetic operation so that the required logic resources can be dramatically reduced in FPGA implementation. The performance of the proposed algorithm was analyzed in comparison with CSS-LMS algorithm and the learning curves obtained from simulation showed an excellent agreement with the theorical prediction. The simulation result with ICS in fading feedback channel environment showed the performance of the proposed algorithm is competible with NLMS algorithm.

Integrated-optic symmetric/asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers at $1.3{\mu}m$ wavelength were studied as sensing part for electric-field measurement system. The devices were simulated based on the BPM software and fabricated utilizing Ti-diffused $LiNbO_3$ channel optical waveguides and lumped-type electrodes. A half-wave voltage of $V_{\pi}$=6.6V and modulation depth of 100% and 75% for a symmetric structure were measured for 200Hz and 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth, respectively. By the way, almost half-maximum power transmission was observed for asymmetric interferometers with ${\pi}$/2 intrinsic phase difference. Expected experimental measurements were observed for 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth.

Bit patterned media (BPM) storage is one of the promising technologies to overcome the limitations of the conventional magnetic recording. However, there are some problems in a high areal density BPM storage, inter-track interference, inter-symbol interference and noise which are severely degrading performance of the system with reducing the bit error rate. In this paper, we present a simple iterative two-dimensional equalizer based on the contraction mapping theorem to mitigate these adverse effects. Furthermore, we examine that the channel characteristics of the proposed two-dimensional equalizer satisfies the convergence conditions. In the simulation we demonstrate the bit separation characteristics of the one-dimensional equalizer and the two-dimensional equalizer and evaluate the BER performance of the proposed equalizer comparing with the conventional equalizers. According to the results of experiments, the proposed equalizer is an promising equalizer with maintaining proper complexity for a high areal density BPM storage.

액정표시장치(LCD; Liquid Crystal Display)는 표현된 정보를 가시화하기 위해 램프의 백라이트가 필수적인데 대부분 부피가 작고 효율과 휘도특성이 좋은 냉음극 방전램프가 사용된다. 램프는 고압으로 구동되며 높은 전압을 얻기 위해 일반적으로 권선 변압기를 사용한다 그러나 권선 변압기의 경우 자체의 철심이나 권선의 손실로 인하여 출력 효율의 한계가 있으며, 고압을 위해 감긴 코일은 부피를 크게 하며 무겁게 만든다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 변압기 자체 손실을 줄이고 소형화가 가능하며 높은 승압비을 가진 PAN-PZT계의 적층형 압전 변압기를 제작하였으며, 회로의 손실을 줄이기 위한 영전압 스위칭(ZVS; Zero Voltage Switching)과 그리고 LCD패널과 인버터의 불필요한 간섭현상(EMI; Electro-Magnetic Interference)을 줄일 수 있으며 소형화가 가능한 풀 브리지형 압전 인버터를 설계하였다.

In a single frequency network (SFN) for Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) terrestrial digital television (DTV) system, the interferences induced by the multiple transmitters and/or repeaters using the same frequency are inevitable. Since the presence of interferences results in performance degradation of the SFN, it is crucial to manipulate the interferences by adjusting the transmit power and timing of each transmitter and repeater. In the ATSC terrestrial DTV system, in order to facilitate the interference manipulation process, a transmitter identification (TxID) signal which is uniquely embedded in the signal to be transmitted from each transmitter and repeater is recommended. Even though the injection level of the TxID signal is much lower than the DTV signal, the TxID signal injection infects the DTV signal. Hence, the effect of the TxID signal on the DTV signal must be investigated before deployment. In this paper, the effect of the TxID signal on the performance of legacy DTV receivers under additive white Gaussian noise and multipath channel environments is investigated not only with computer simulation but also with laboratory and field tests. The test results show that the average threshold of visibility degradation of the legacy DTV receivers due to the TxID signal injection is less than 0.2 dB at the TxID injection level of -30 dB.
