OFDM (Orthogonal frequency Division Multiplexing) systems convert serial data stream to N parallel data streams and modulate them to N orthogonal subcarriers. Thus spectrum utilization efficiency of the OFDM systems are high and high-speed data transmission is possible. However, with the OFDM systems using the same modulation method at all subcarriers, the error probability is dominated by the subcarriers which experience deep fades. Therefore, in order to enhance the performance of the system adaptive modulation is required, with which the modulation methods of the subcarriers are determined according to the estimated SNRs. The IEEE 802.11a system selects various transmission speed between 6 and 54 Mbps according to the modulation mode. There are three typical methods for SNR estimation: Direct estimation method uses the frequency domain symbols to estimate SNR directly by minimizing MSE (Mean Square Error), EVM method utilizes the distance between the demodulated constellation points and received complex values, and the method utilizing the Viterbi algorithm uses the cumulative minimum distance in decoding process to estimate the SNR indirectly. Through comparison analyses of three methods we propose a new SNR estimation method, which employs both the EVM method and the Viterbi algorithm. Finally, we perform extensive computer simulations to confirm the performance improvement of the proposed adaptive OFDM systems on the basis of IEEE 802.11a.

In this paper, Intermediate frequency tunable 4th order Switched Capacitor(SC) bandpass Sigma-Delta(${\Sigma}-{\Delta}$) modulator using feedback integrator using feedback integrator coefficients is proposed. The center frequency of the modulator can be easily changed than conventional structure because of a number of integrator coefficients which is decided rate of capacitors in circuit is reduced. In addition additive clocks and additive clock generating circuit are not necessary. The purposed modulator was implemented in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The resolution of the modulator within 200 kHz bandwidth and 80 MHz sampling frequency under fin = 15 MHz, 20 MHz, 25 MHz are over 12 bit.

The biological active points (BAP) are known as low resistance spots or good electro-permeable points. In this paper, a new method for BAP detection using the bio-impedance measurement system based on the adaptive frequency tracking filter (AFTF) and the transition event detector is presented. Also, the microcontroller process continuous time demodulation of the modulated signal by multi frequency components using the AFTF. The transition event detector based on the phase space method is applied about each frequency using the BAP equivalent model which is proposed.

In this paper, we present a low-power delta-sigma based digital frequency synthesizer with high frequency resolution for bio sensor networks. Biomedical radio-frequency (RF) transceivers require miniaturized forms with a long battery life and low power consumption. For the technology scaling, digital circuits have become preferable compared to analog circuits because of the aggressive cost, size, flexibility, and repeatability. Therefore, the digital circuits based on standard-cell library are used to reduce a power consumption. Additionally, a delta-sigma is used for making fractional frequency tuning range. From the simulation, we confirmed that proposed scheme has good performance in accordance with power and frequency resolution.

We have stabIhzed the laser frequency of a commercial dIode laser using a ULE (Ultra-low expansion material) reference cavIty and the cunent modulation charactenstics of the dIode itself The liuewIdth of the frce running laser was about a 1 MHz (rms) for a sampling time of 1 s and the drift rate was 300 kHz/s. Vvhen the laser is locked to oue sIde of the transmission signal from the ULE reference cavity, the lincwidth was reduced to 46 kHz (nus) for a sampling time longer than 10 ms. The root Allan variance was less than 2 kHz for a sampling time langeI than10 ms. 10 ms.

In this paper, a new implementation method of OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system with an orthogonal basis matrix is developed mathematically. The basis matrix is based on the Haar basis but has an appropriate form for modulation of multiple subchannel signals of OFDM. It is verified that the new basis matrix can be expanded with a simple recursive algorithm. The order of synthesis matrix in the transmitter is increased by the factor of two with every expansion. Demodulation in the receiver is carried out by its inverse matrix, which can be generated recursively with the orthogonal basis matrix. It is shown that perfect reconstruction of original signals is possibly achieved in the proposed OFDMsystem.

In this paper, the BER performance of OFDM/M-ary PSK systems is analyzed with considering carrier-frequency offset and TCM technique, which encodes and modulations simultaneously, is adopted to OFDWM-ary PSK systems for compensation of performance degradation according to carrier-frequency offset. As a result of analysis, the error performance of OFDM/M-ary PSK systems is degraded as the frequency offset is increased. And the frequency offset should be below 0.025 in order to achieve $BER= 10^{-3}$ with $E_b/N_o$ of 10 dB. Especially, when the TCM technique is adopted to OFDM/M-ary PSK systems, the performance improvement of about 4 dB is obtained in terms of $E_b/N_o$.

In this paper, we propose an automatic modulation classification method for ten digitally modulated baseband signals, such as 2-FSK, 4-FSK, 8-FSK, MSK, BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, and 64-QAM based on higher order statistics of cyclostationary process. The first order cyclic moments and higher order cyclic cumulants of the signal are used as features of the modulation signals. The proposed method consists of two stages. At the first stage, we classify modulation signals as M-FSK and non-FSK using peaks of the first order cyclic moment. At the next step, we apply the Gaussian mixture model-based classifier to classify non-FSK. Simulation results are demonstrated to evaluate the proposed scheme. The results show high probability of classification even in the presence of frequency and phase offsets.

In this paper, a predistortion linearizer using the in-phase modulator is proposed. The harmonic generator of the proposed predistorter extracts a second harmonic signals. These signals are divided in-phase and quadrature-phase signals, and then amplifying each signals using variable gain amplifier. An in-phase modulator, modulate fundamental signal with second harmonic signals, generates the predistortion intermodulation distortion (IM) signals and controls amplitude and phase of them with modulation factors. As a result, this predistorter is suppressed intermodulation distortion signals of power amplifier effectively. The proposed linearizer has been implemented to operate in Cellular-band. The test results show that the third order IM is cancelled more than 20dB in case of CW 2-tone signals with ${\Delta}f$=1MHz. Also, it's improved the adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) more than 7dB for IS-95 CDMA 1FA signals.

Recently, full-duplex communications has been considered as one of the most promising techniques for net-generation mobile communication system. In this paper, we propose a compressed sensing based signal detection technique for full-duplex generalized spatial modulation (FD-GSM) systems. In FD-GSM systems, some antennas are used for signal transmission according to input data and the otehrs are used for detecting signals received over the same frequency band. The self-interference (SI) is assumed to be completely removed by help for the recently proposed SI cancellation techniques. The proposed signal detection technique significantly outperforms the conventional ones in terms of symbol error rate (SER). We will investigate the optimal number of used antennas in FD-GSM systems.
