A high-resolution seismic survey was conducted on the abandoned tidal flat in Shihwa Lake on the west coast of Korea. A portable vibrator was used as a seismic source and 217 shot gathers with 48-channel system were acquired. F-k filtering, residual static corrections and post-stack frequency filtering are found to be useful for signal enhancement. The overburden is divided into two seismic depositional units. Unit I is deposited in tidal environment characterized by parallel and high continuity reflection pattern. This unit comprises a dry layer (Unit Ia) and a wet layer (Unit Ib) having averagely 5 and 15 meters thick, respectively. Unit II unconformably overlain by Unit I exhibits discontinuity and hummocky reflection pattern, indicating complex channel-fill sediments in estuary. The maximum thickness of this unit is approximately 20 meter. Acoustic basement is considered as Precambrian granitic gneiss occurred in the surrounding area.

In the fifth generation (5G) mobile networks, the mobile services require 100 times faster connections. One of the promising 5G technologies is non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). In NOMA, the users share the channel resources, so that the more users can be served simultaneously. There are several advantages offered by NOMA, such as higher spectrum efficiency and low transmission latency, compared to orthogonal multiple access (OMA), which is usually used in the fourth generation (4G) mobile networks, for example, long term evolution (LTE). In this paper, we compare the receivers for NOMA. The standard NOMA receiver, the non-SIC NOMA receiver, and the symmetric superposition coding (SC) NOMA receiver are compared. Specifically, it is shown that the performance of the standard receiver is the best, whereas the performances of the non-SIC receiver and symmetric SC receiver are dependent on the power allocation.

Inter-symbol interference (ISI) due to channel bandwidth limitation constrains the maximum data rate in high speed I/O. Decision feedback equalizer (DFE) is known as the most popular technique for removing ISI. To ensure fast data transmission, not only removing ISI but also raising maximum operating frequency of the circuit itself by relaxing feedback delay margin is important. For single-ended signaling, DFE should cancel out both ISI and high frequency noises. Low-power operation is as important as fast operation because required DFE elements increase as the data rate goes up. This paper surveys recent techniques for fast DFE by removing ISI and high frequency noises, and low power DFE and discusses about their merits and limitations.

Although the matching Pursuit is effective for video coding at low bit rate, it has a Problem since it needs much more calculation than the conventional block-based video coding method. The proposed fast matching pursuit method reduces inner product calculation that takes the most part of entire calculation by utilizing the symmetry of the absolute values of the one-dimensional Gator dictionary bases, the modified dictionary which allows faster matching without causing image quality degradation, and a Property of the two-dimensional Gabor dictionary that can be grouped in advance to four classes according to its frequency characteristics. Proposed method needs only about 1/8 of multiplications compared to the well-known separability-based fast method proposed by Neff.

Since the morden targets are of high speed and getting quiet in both active and passive mode, the necessities of developing advanced SONAR system capable of performing target motion analysis (TMA) and target classification are evident. In order to develop such a system, the scattering mechanism of complex bodies needs to be, some extent, fully understood and modeled. In this paper, MOving Spread Target(MOST) signal simulation model is presented and discussed. The model is based on the highlight distribution method, and simulates pulse elongation of spread target, doppler effect due to kinematics of the target as well as SONAR platform, and distribution target strength of each highlight point (HL) with directivity. The model can be used in developing and evaluating advanced SONAR system through system simulation, and can also be used in the development of target state estimation algorithm.

Clustering algorithm is an essential element to implement a hierarchical routing protocol, especially for a large-scale wireless sensor network. In this paper, we propose a new type of energy-efficient clustering algorithm, which maximizes the physical distance between cluster head and gateway by a neighbor node discovery mechanism. Furthermore, a slave/master patching scheme is introduced as a useful means of further improving the energy-efficiency. It has been shown that the number of cluster heads can be reduced by as many as 21% as compared with the existing clustering algorithms.

Lately, spectrum sensing performance has been improved by using cooperate spectrum sensing which each results of sensing of several secondary users are reported to the fusion center. Using Cognitive Radio, secondary user is able to share a bandwidth allocated to primary user. In this paper, we propose a new decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing scheme which compensates the performance degradation of existing decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing considering the error probability of the channel which sensed result of the secondary user is delivered to the fusion center in decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing. In addition, a sensing threshold optimization of minimizing the error probability of decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing is introduced by deriving the equation and the optimal sensing threshold has been confirmed to maximize the decentralized cooperative spectrum sensing performance.

OFDM systems are much studied for the recent high speed wireless optical communication system. OFDM system has basically high PAPR and ICI easily generated because of non-linearity and RF impairments. In the wireless optical communication system, optical output power driven by current of LED is not linear so that transmission signals are distorted. Therefore, research about reception performance of this nonlinear optical output emitted by non-linear LED transfer function and OFDM signal has been conducted. Nonlinear effect of LED is different from nonlinear effect of OFDM system in the conventional radio communication system, which degrades the BER performance. In this paper, we apply non-linear transfer function of recently studied LED into OFDM system. So, for reducing the PAPR and suppressing the ICI in frequency domain of receiver, we suggest a new PAPR reduction technique to reduce non-linear distortion of LED and an adaptive ICI suppression algorithm so that BER performance may be improved. Also, the proposed method is verified through simulation results.

UWB radio systems have drawn attention during the last few years. These systems are the core technique for ubiquitous home and enable to co-exist with other narrow band systems over the same frequency without interfering them. But UWB signals have a very low power per pulse, so they are affected by strong narrow band interferences. Specially, IEEE 802.11a systems which operate around 5GHz overlap the band of UWB signals and they will interfere with UWB systems significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel narrow band interference suppression method based on singular value decomposition(SVD) algorithm for DS-UWB in IEEE 802.15.4a channel model. The proposed method is very effective and robust for both a single user DS-UWB system and a multiuser DS-UWB system to reduce the narrow band interference.

The Uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction(UTD) is an effective technique to analyze the radio wave by ray-based calculation of the diffraction coefficient and the reflection coefficient. In this paper, user body shadowing based on the UTD is investigated when the user is close to the mobile device. Two cases are introduced. One is that the user is calling with the mobile attached to the ear(Head Model). The other is that the mobile is located about 15cm away from the user's chest(Chest Model) Radiation Model and Scattering Model are applied to these cases presenting which model is applicable.
