This paper has presented the influence of scaling theory on short channel effects of double gate(DG) MOSFET in subthreshold region. In the case of conventional MOSFET, to preserve constantly output characteristics,current and switching frequency have been analyzed based on scaling theory. To analyze the results of application of scaling theory for short channel effects of DGMOSFET, the changes of threshold voltage, drain induced barrier height and subthreshold swing have been observed according to scaling factor. The analytical potential distribution of Poisson equation already verified has been used. As a result, it has been observed that threshold voltage among short channel effects is grealty changed according to scaling factor. The best scaling theory for DGMOSFET has been explained as using modified scaling theory, applying weighting factor reflected the influence of two gates when scaling theory has been applied for channel length.

In this paper, an enhanced initial ranging algorithm for large-cell coverage fixed wireless communication system is proposed. In typical wireless communication system such as WiBro, because a round-trip delay between a transmitter and a receiver is within one OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbol duration, a frequency-domain differential correlation method is generally used. However, the conventional method cannot be applied due to an increase of a maximum time delay in large-cell system. In case of an accumulative differential method, estimation errors can occur because of frequent sign transitions. In this paper, therefore, we propose an algorithm which can estimate a total timing offset in a ranging channel structure for 15 km cell. The proposed method can improve performance by sign comparison based sign error correction rule between the estimated values and using a weighting scheme based on channel correlation, the number of accumulations, and the noise reduction effect in normalization process. Also, it can estimate the integer timing offset of symbol duration by comparing peak-powers after compensating for the fractional timing offset of symbol duration.

In this paper, two receive diversity combining techniques are proposed for single-carrier Sequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA)-based cooperative relay systems when DFT spreading sizes for mobile station (MS) and relay station (RS) are different. A simplified-MRC (5-MRC) technique performs diversity combining in the time domain using the estimated channel weight and initial values obtained by SC-FDMA signal detection. An interference rejection-MRC (IR-MRC) technique performs diversity combining in the frequency domain by adjusting DFT spreading size in the receiver. It is shown by computer simulation that the proposed receive diversity combining techniques achieve a significant performance gain over the conventional MRC technique with zero forcing (ZF) detector.

This paper presents an analysis of the dynamical behavor in the chaotic neuron fabricated using 0.8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ single poly CMOS technology. An approximated empirical equation models for the sigmoid output function and chaos generative block of the chaotic neuron are extracted from the measurement data. Then the dynamical responses of the chaotic neuron such as biurcation diagram, frequency responses, Lyapunov exponent, and average firing rate are calculated with numerical analysis. In addition, we construct the chaotic neural networks which are composed of two chaotic neurons with four synapses and obtain bifurcation diagram according to synaptic weight variation. And results of experiments in the single chaotic neuron and chaotic neural networks by two neurons with the $\pm$2.5V power supply and sampling clock frequency of 10KHz are shown and compared with the simulated results.

We propose a method for evaluating the image quality of color liquid crystal display(LCD) monitors by using the polychromatic modulation transfer function(PMTF), which is calculated from the modulation transfer function(MTF) weighted by the overall color response of the system including the test LCD monitor. We confirm that experimental results using the PMTF agree well with simulated results of the PMTF of a color LCD monitor by using three bar targets with different amplitudes and three elementary colors such as red(R), green(G), and blue(B). As a results, we should choose the PMTF instead of the white color MTF or monochromatic MTF in order to evaluate correctly the image quality of color LCD monitors.

This paper has presented the relation of scaling theory and threshold voltage of double gate(DG) MOSFET. In the case of conventional MOSFET, current and switching frequency have been analyzed based on scaling theory. To observe the possibility of application of scaling theory for threshold voltage of DGMOSFET, the change of threshold voltage has been observed and analyzed according to scaling theory. The analytical potential distribution of Poisson equation has been used, and this model has been already verified. To solve Poisson equation, charge distribution such as Gaussian function has been used. As a result, it has been observed that threshold voltage is grealty changed according to scaling factor and change rate of threshold voltages is traced for scaling of doping concentration in channel. This paper has explained for the best modified scaling theory reflected the influence of two gates as using weighting factor when scaling theory has been applied for channel length and channel thickness.

In this paper, we study a watermarking method based on the informed coding and embedding by means of trellis code and entropy masking. An image is divided as $8{\times}8$ block with no overlapping and the discrete cosine transform(DCT) is applied to each block. Then the 16 medium-frequency AC terms of each block are extracted. Next it is compared with gaussian random vectors having zero mean and unit variance. As these processing, the embedding vectors with minimum value of linear combination between linear correlation and Watson distance can be obtained by Viterbi algorithm at each stage of trellis coding. For considering the image characteristics, we apply different weight value between the linear correlation and the Watson distance using the entropy masking. To evaluate the performance of proposed method, the average bit error rate of watermark message is calculated from different several images. By the experiments the proposed method is improved in terms of the average bit error rate.

This paper investigates chrominance reconstruction methods that reconstruct subsampled chrominance information efficiently using the correlation between luminance and chrominance components in the decompression process of compressed images, and analyzes drawbacks involved in the adaptive-weighted 2-dimensional linear interpolation among the methods, which shows higher efficiency in the view of computational complexity than other methods. To improve the drawback that the spatial frequency distribution is not considered for the decompressed image and to support the application on a low-performance system in behalf of 2-dimensional linear interpolation, this paper proposes the multi-mode reconstruction method which uses three reconstruction methods having different computational complexity from each other according to the degree of edge response of luminance component. The performance evaluation on a development platform for embedded systems showed that the proposed reconstruction method supports the similar level of image quality for decompressed images while reducing the overall computation time for chrominance reconstruction in comparison with the 2-dimensional linear interpolation.

In this paper, we proposed a new wavelet-based image fusion algorithm, which has advantages in both frequency and spatial domains for signal analysis. The developed algorithm compares the ratio of SAR image signal to optical image signal and assigns the SAR image signal to the fused image if the ratio is larger than a predefined threshold value. If the ratio is smaller than the threshold value, the fused image signal is determined by a weighted sum of optical and SAR image signal. The fusion rules consider the ratio of SAR image signal to optical image signal, image gradient and local variance of each image signal. We evaluated the proposed algorithm using Ikonos and TerraSAR-X satellite images. The proposed method showed better performance than the conventional methods which take only relatively strong SAR image signals in the fused image, in terms of entropy, image clarity, spatial frequency and speckle index.
