This paper presents the design of a Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave(FMCW) radar altimeter with wide altitude range and low measurement errors. Wide altitude range is achieved by employing the optic delay in the transmitting path to reduce the dynamic range of measuring altitude. Transmitting power and receiver gain are also controlled to have the dynamic range of the received power be reduced. In addition, low measurement errors are obtained by improving the sweep linearity using the Direct Digital Synthesizer(DDS) and minimizing the phase noise employing the reference clock(Ref_CLK) as the offset frequency of the Phase Locked Loop(PLL).

This paper is about power line communication(PLC) over the low power voltage grid. The main advantage with power line communication is the use of an existing infrastructure. The PLC channel can be modeled as having multi-path propagation with frequency-selective fading, typical power lines exhibit signal attenuation increasing with length and frequency. OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a modulation technique where multiple low data rate carriers are combined by a transmitter to form a composite high data rate transmission. The performance in consideration of the multi-path(echoes) powerline scheme is analyzed and verified by computer simulation.

The unsteady flow characteristics and associated blade tonal noise of a cross-flow fan are predicted by computational methods. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are time-accurately solved for obtaining the pressure fluctuations between the rotating blades and the stabilizer. and the sound pressure is predicted using Curie's equation. The discrete noise characteristics of three impellers with a uniform and two random pitch (type-A and -B) blades are compared by their SPL (Sound Pressure Level) spectra. and the frequency modulation characteristics of the BPF (Blade Passing Frequency) noise are discussed. Besides. a mathematical model is proposed for the prediction of discrete blade tonal noise and is validated with available experimental data. The fan performance is also compared with experimental data. indicating that the random pitch effect does not significantly alter the performance characteristics at ${\phi}$ 〉 0.4

It is very important to design the input filter optimally in matrix converters. But, the input power factor is deteriorated in spite of the optimal filter design due to the existence of inductor and capacitor included in the filter, and it is hard to keep high power factor in the whole operating range which is one of the major advantages of the matrix converters because the power factor is changed according to the output frequency and the load current. In this paper, we introduce the new space vector modulation method which can preserve the input power factor almost unity even though the output load or the output frequency is varied. It is also presented how to implement the proposed method effectively.

이 연구는 별 관측을 통해 점 퍼짐 함수(PSF)를 측정하고 나이퀴스트 주파수에서 변조 전달 함수(MTF)을 계산하여 주파수 영역에서 저궤도 광학 위성의 영상품질 평가방법을 도출하였다. 가상 별 영상을 생성하고 IRAF로 2차원의 점 퍼짐 함수를 얻었고 MATLAB으로 점 퍼짐 함수를 2차원 푸리에 변환하여 변조 전달함수를 계산하였다. 공간 영역에서는 점 퍼짐 함수의 모양을 통해서도 영상품질을 검증할 수 있다. Along/Across-Track의 모양이 일치하고 중심에서 좌우대칭이며 델타함수에 가까울수록 좋은 품질의 영상을 의미한다. Along/Across-Track의 점 퍼짐 함수 모양차이는 Line Rate나 Time Delay and Integration(TDI)의 오차에서 기인한다. 별을 점광원으로 본다면 점 퍼짐 함수를 정의하기 쉽고 Along/Across 방향을 동시에 측정 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 궤도상에서 별을 관측하는 것은 지상을 관측하는 것보다 대기 환경의 효과가 크지 않기 때문에 영상 품질 평가에 유리하다. Yaw Steering이나 Nadir Pointing과 같은 자세제어의 효과를 배제할 수 있으므로 자세제어의 효과가 상당 부분 제거된 영상품질을 분석할 수 있다. 지상관측시간이나 배터리 충전시간이 아닌 지구 본영에서 별을 관측하므로 임무에 방해받지 않는다. 지상관측과 같은 효과를 내고 TDI를 사용하는 환경을 구현하기위해 Line Rate를 고려한 자세 기동 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 큰 각도의 자세 기동이 예상되어 쿼터니안을 이용하여 Inertial Pointing하도록 자세 제어하였고, 자세 Slew Rate 구속조건 하에서 제어가 필요하다.

This paper proposes an advanced filter design to improve power quality of a head electric power (HEP) as a power conversion unit in centralized-power type electric railway vehicle. First of all, we have measured waveform of output power of transformer connected HEP to design the filter. Throughout experiment and simulation results, it is estimated that switching technique used HEP is advanced selected harmonic elimination PWM (SHEPWM) and the applied switching frequency is about 300Hz. In this paper, a filter to improve power quality considering estimated parameters is designed. As a result, the reduction of the magnitude of the overall harmonic is achieved and confirmed through simulations.

In this paper, we proposed the method of the interference evaluation between the microwave oven noise and the wireless LAN(Local Area Network) by using the GTEM cell. We used microwave oven noise in time to assess the interference unintentional noise effects on wireless LAN and realized by combining an AM(Amplitude Modulation) modulator and a FM(frequency Modulation) modulator. Also the GTEM cell can be used to guarantee the reliability by the evaluations of the frequency and time responses. As measurement results for the APD(Amplitude Probability Distribution) of the interfering noise we analyzed the effect of microwave oven noise to the throughput of wireless LAN.

The adaptive frequency tracking based phase-shifting PWM(Pulse-Width Modulation) regulation scheme is presented in order to minimize switching losses. The trially-produced breadboards using IGBT are successfully demonstrated and discussed.

In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of synchronization of CCK(Complementary Code Keying) modulation scheme used for IEEE 802.11g wireless LAM system supporting 54 Mbps of high speed data rate over 2.4 GHz. At receiver, the clock frequency offset is caused by noise or fading. This frequency error occurs the offset of clock timing and causes ISI. Therefore the tracking is required to reduce the clock timing offset. The DLL(Delay Lock Loop), asychronization mode, performing tacking the clock is used for the simulation. The simulation result shows jitter variance and BER performance in the AWGN and multipath fading channel environment.
