This paper presents a wide tuning range, fine-resolution DCO (Digitally Controlled Oscillator) with an active inductor. In order to control the frequency of the DCO, the transconductance of the active inductor is tuned digitally. In addition, the DCO gain needs to be calibrated digitally to compensate for gain variations. To cover the wide tuning range, an automatic three-step coarse tuning scheme is proposed. The DCO total frequency tuning range is 1.4 GHz (2.1 GHz to 3.5 GHz), it is 58 % at 2.4 GHz. An effective frequency resolution is 0.14 kHz/LSB. The proposed DCO is implemented in 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process. The total power consumption is 6.6 mW from a 1.2 V supply voltage. The phase noise of the DCO output at 2.4 GHz is -120.67 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset.

In this paper, we have estimated the interference effects between the NGSO/MSS system and the fixed-service M/W system for sharing the NGSO/MSS system into the frequency band operated by the existing M/W system. Between above two systems, the interference effects must be analyzed in the following three points. That is, PFD(Power Flux Density) level must be obtained in the case of the interference from NGSO satellites into M/W stations, C/I(Carrier-to-Interference Ratio) and the coordination contour in the case of the interference between NGSO/MSS feeder link and a M/W station, and the interference power level and coordination contour in the case of the interference between NGSO/MSS service link(handsets) and M/W stations. Therefore, in order to obtain above three criteria, we have developed the analytical model, introduced the related equations and estimated the system performance by means of the simulation and the theoretial analysis. It is expected that the results will be utilized in setting the criterion for sharing between the NGSO/MSS system and the M/W station.

In general, a Doppler radar can measure only the velocity of a moving target. To measure the distance of a moving target, it is necessary to use a frequency-modulated continuous wave or pulse radar. However, the latter are very complex in terms of both hardware as well as signal processing. Moreover, the requirement of wide bandwidth necessitates the use of millimeter-wave frequency bands of 24 GHz and 77 GHz. Recently, a new kind of Doppler radar using multitone frequency has been studied to sense the distance of moving targets in addition to their speed. In this study, we show that distance sensing of moving targets is possible by adjusting only the frequency of a 2.4 GHz Doppler radar with low cost phase lock loop. In particular, we show that distance can be sensed using only alternating current information without direct current offset information. The proposed technology satisfies the Korean local standard for low power radio equipment for moving target identification in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, and enables multiple long-range sensing and radio-frequency identification applications.

차세대 무선통신에서는 높은 데이터 전송률을 필요로 하여 높은 밀도의 주파수 재사용을 요구하게 된다. 따라서 셀 간 간섭을 효율적으로 줄이는 방법을 필요로 하게 된다. 기존의 정적인 간섭 조정 기법들은 셀 가장자리 성능을 향상시키기 위해서 네트워크 전체의 성능을 희생한다는 단점이 존재한다. 한편, 높은 전송률을 필요로 하며, 동시에, 높은 신뢰도의 통신을 위해서 중계단말기를 사용한 OFDMA 중계 네트워크에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 다중 셀 환경의 OFDMA 중계 네트워크에서의 셀 간 간섭을 적응적으로 조정하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법에서는 셀 간 간섭을 줄여서 셀 가장자리 성능을 향상시킴과 동시에 네트워크 전체 성능 또한 향상시키는 것을 목적으로 한다. 모의실험을 통해, 제안된 알고리즘이 정적 셀 간 간섭조정 기법들 보다 셀 가장자리 성능과 네트워크 전체 성능이 우수함을 확인한다.

This paper presents a tunable band pass filter (BPF) for multi bio-signal detection. The bandwidth can be controlled by the bias current of transconductance (gm), while conventional BPF exploited switchable capacitor array for band selection. With this design technique, the die area of proposed BPF reduced to at least one tenth the area of conventional design. The simulation results show the high cut-off frequency tuning range of from 100Hz to 1Khz. The circuit was implemented with a 0.18um CMOS standard technology. Total current consumption is 1uA at the supply voltage of 1V with sub-threshold design technique.

A Littman type dye laser oscillator inserted a wedge prism was constructed. Accurate frequency tuning was achieved by the rotation of the wedge prism instead of the tuning mirror. Frequency tuning rate was about 20 GHz/deg. and the synchronous tuning of 70 GHz without mode-hop was achieved. ieved.

Problems and technologies involved in integrating an audio preamplifier in terms of thick film technology has been discussed in detail. In particular, an attempt has been made to find methods for functional trimming of the amplifer by employing computer analysis. Among seven resistors integrated on a alumina substrate, only one resistor was found to be very sensitive to over all performance of the preamplifier. By trimming this resistor to its freguency charcteristic reguirements, it was possible to cut down trimming labor by one seventh. Besides, problems concerning resistor conductor contacts, crossover parasitic capacitance and the relations between noise per(ormance and trimming method are discussed in detail.

When the magnetron is employed as a radar transmitter source, the receiver needs to detect the frequency and the phase of the transmitting signal for the coherent operation. The local oscillator frequency is tuned for the stable intermediate frequency and the coherent oscillator generates the stable signal which is phase-locked to the transmitting signal. In this paper, we designed and implemented the receiver front-end including AFC(Automatic Frequency Control) circuit, STALO(Stable Local Oscillator) and COHO (Coherent Oscillator) unit.

멀티미디어 장치와 사용자의 욕구가 다양해짐에 따라 이를 충족시키기 위하여 이미지 크기는 장치에서 지원하는 해상도나 사용자의 욕구에 맞게 조정되어야 한다. 이미지 업샘플링 방법은 크게 공간 도메인과 주파수 도메인에서 수행될 수 있다. 일반적으로 공간 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법은 주파수 도메인의 업샘플링에 비해 상대적으로 주관적인 화질 측면에서 좋은 성능을 나타내지만 객관적인 성능이 낮다. 반대로 주파수 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법은 객관적인 화질이 좋고 주관적인 화질 측면에서 상대적으로 성능이 낮게 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 공간 도메인과 주파수 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법을 블록의 특성에 따라 적응적으로 업샘플링 방법을 선택하는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 객관적 성능 뿐 아니라 주관적 성능까지도 향상 시킬 수 있다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 알고리듬에 비해 PSNR 측면에서 0.87dB~1.15dB 증가하고, 주관적 화질도 향상됨을 알 수 있다.
