This paper investigates the impact of the channel variations and channel estimation errors on the error performance of convolutional coded STBC systems. We consider the orthogonal Almouti STBC and the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC, and the error performance of the convolutional coded STBC system is investigated according to the channel variation and channel estimation error via numerical simulations. Simulation results show that, if the channel variation speed is slow, time diversity effects improve the error performance compared to the static-channel cases. However, if the channel variation speed is fast, unlike ZF or MMSE detection, the conventional STBC detection has the significant performance degradation especially with the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC. Further, the error performance of the system is significantly degraded as the channel estimation errors become stronger, regardless of the detection scheme and channel variation speed.

A design and DSP-based implementation of robust nonlinear speed control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM) under the unknown parameter variations and speed measurement error is presented. The model reference adaptive system(MRAS) based adaptation mechanisms for the estimation of slowly varying parameters are derived using the MIT rule. For the disturbances or quickly varying parameters, a quasilinearized and decoupled model which includes the influence of parameter variations and speed measurement error on the nonlinear speed control of a PMSM is derived. Based on this model, a boundary layer integral sliding mode controller to improve the robustness and performance of the nonlinear speed control of a PMSM is designed and compared with the conventional controller which employs Proportional plus Derivative(PD) control. To show the validity of the proposed scheme, simulations and DSP-based experimental works are carried out and compared with the conventional control scheme.

고체 추진제를 사용하는 추진 시스템을 개발하는데 가장 커다란 문제로 인식되고 있는 것은 추진제의 연소 특성을 이해하는 일이다. 그 중에서도 연소실의 압력 진동과 추진제 벽면으로 흡수되는 복사 열전달에 의한 연소율(burning rate)의 변화로 인하여 발생하는 연소 불안정에 대한 이해는 아직도 완전히 규명되지 않고 있다. 고체 추진제의 연소 불안정에 대한 이론적 해석은 준-정상 1차원 해석(Quasi-Steady Homogeneous One-Dimension) 방법에 의하여 단순화된 지배방정식을 해석하는 것이 일반적으로 잘 알려져 있는 방법이다. 이 가정은 고체 추진제가 연수되는 영역을 두께가 매우 얇은 영역의 표면반응영역(surface reaction layer)과 화학반응이 없는 응축상태영역(condensed phase zone) 그리고 기체상태의 연료와 화염이 존재하는 기체상태영역(gas phase zone) 등의 3영역으로 구분하며, 기체상태영역에서 발생하는 교란에 대한 응축상태영역의 반응시간 크기(response time scale)가 매우 크기 때문에 응축상태영역의 반응은 준 정상적으로 일어난다고 가정하는 것이다.그러나, 연소실의 온도가 $3000^{\circ}K$ 정도의 높은 온도이어서 복사 열전달에 의한 고체 추진제의 가열이 중요한 열전달 방법으로 작용하게 되므로 이를 무시한 이론적 해석은 물리적인 중요성이 약하여질 수밖에 없다. 본 연구에서는 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 복사 열전달은 투명(transparent)한 표면반응영역을 통과하여 응축상태영역에서 모두 흡수되며 추진제 표면에서의 복사열방출(emission)을 고려하였다. 또한 연소불안정 현상을 해석하기 위하여 표면반응영역에서의 경계조건은 선형교란량으로 대치하는 Zn(Zeldovich-Novozhilov) 방법을 사용하였다. 이 방법은 기체상태영역에 대한 구체적인 해석없이도 연소불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있는 장점이 잇다. 즉 응축상태영역에서의 연소율과 표면온도는 각각 기체영역으로부터 전달되는 온도구배와 연소압력, 그리고 복사 열전달의 함수관계이므로 선형교란에 의한 추진제표면에서의 교란경계조건을 얻을 수 잇으며, 응축영역의 교란지배방정식과 함께 사용하여 압력교란과 복사 열전달의 교란에 대한 연소율의 교란 증감 여부를 판단하여 연소 불안정 현상을 해석할 수 있다.

This paper suggests an improved system-level model of RF power amplifiers(PAs) including memory effects, and validates the suggested model by analyzing the power spectral density of the output signal with a predistortion linearizer. The original three-box(Wiener-Hammerstein) model uses input and output filters to capture RF frequency response of PAs. The adjacent spectral regrowth that occurs in three-box model can be perfectly removed by Hammerstein structure predistorter. However, the predistorter based on Hammerstein structure achieves limited performance in real PA applications due to other memory effects except RF frequency response. The spectrum of the output signal can be predicted accurately using the suggested model that changes a memoryless block in a three-box model with a memory polynomial. The proposed model accurately predicts the output spectrum density of PA with Hammerstein structure predistorter with less than 2 dB errors over ${\pm}30$ MHz adjacent channel ranges for IEEE 802.11 g WLAN signal.

The Self Tuning Regulator(STR) method which is an approach of adaptive control theory, is ap-plied to design the fully automatic power controller of the nonlinear reactor model. The adaptive control represent a proper approach to design the suboptimal controller for nonlinear, time-varying stochastic systems. The control system is based on a third­order linear model with unknown, time-varying parameters. The updating of the parameter estimates is achieved by the recursive extended least square method with a variable forgetting factor. Based on the estimated parameters, the output (average coolant temperature) is predicted one-step ahead. And then, a weighted one-step ahead controller is designed so that the difference between the output and the desired output is minimized and the variation of the control rod position is small. Also, an integral action is added in order to remove the steady­state error. A nonlinear M plant model was used to simulate the proposed controller of reactor power which covers a wide operating range. From the simulation result, the performances of this controller for ramp input (increase or decrease) are proved to be successful. However, for step input this controller leaves something to be desired.

This paper suggests the detecting method in which it uses the candidate symbol obtained through PI-SDR, the little computational complexity is required. By using the candidate symbol matrices obtained through PI-SDR, ZF and MMSE method was applied and the received signal was detected. The linear detecting method using PI-SDR candidate symbol is out of the performance than ML detecting method but the complexity is low. Because of using the symbol come close to the solution of ML, the proposed method's performance is better than the existing ZF and MMSE method.

A wavelength-demodulation algorithm for FBG sensor is proposed by using a double-pass Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Zero-crossing points of double-passed interference signal are used to trigger the accurate $90^{\circ}C$ phase difference positions in the sensor signal, which is an essential condition in the subsequent arctangent and phase unwrapping signal processing. With the proposed method, we could efficiently measure various measurands, such as dynamic-, static-strain, and temperature, and ${\sim}8pm$ of wavelength resolution was obtained.

Recently many communication systems ate adapting the OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) for multimedia data services. However, OFDM has some problems that PAPR is increased when sub-carries are summed up with same phases. This problem causes severe signal distortions while the signal is passing through non-linear system such as power amplifier resulting in performance degradation of transmission system. In this paper, we use IF-Clipping method to solve PAPR problem and the signal distortion caused by clipping is limited by use of SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) filter and power amplifier(TWTA). And we derive the optimal parameter(PAPR, Backoff) values to meet the spectrum mask of WiBro system.

Upon introducing satellite communication system to korea, one of the important problems to copy with is the effect from the probable intentional interference i. e. jamming. In this paper, we have considered the M any PSK signal and the soft limiter type, which contains hard limiter, nonhnear satellite transponder in environments of uplink tone or noise jamming plus Gaussian noise and downlink Gaussian noise. Using the derived error rate equation, we have evaluated numerically the error performance of BPSK and QPSK system, and shown in figures in terms of upink and downink earner to jamming rater(CJR) and limiting level. From the results we have known that tone jamming effect on the error performance in BPSK and QPSK signals in nonlinear satelhie shnnel become less with increasing the uplink CNR and with decreasing the liniting level. And in a tone jamming, the limiting level affects hardly on the error performance of both BPSK and QPSK signals. When limiting leveri is zero, BPSK and QPSK signals show the best error rate performance.

The systems for mobile communication services of fourth generation use OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) scheme that ran transmit large amounts of data to support the multimedia services, and consist of several types of cell, such as Macro Cell, Pico Cell, Femto Cell to improve the qualify of service. According to subdivision of communication region, superposition of cells in co-channel different from conventional single cell is used, but it cause inter band interference between systems. In particular, an OFDM signal consists of a number of independently modulated subcarriers, and superposition of these subcarriers causes a problem that ran give a large PAPR. Increased PAPR induces signal distortion passing through components such as power amplifier so that inter band interference is caused by out-of-band spectrum radiation. In order to minimize the inter band interference, this paper applies PAPR reduction scheme and analyzes the out-of-band spectrum radiation when the signal passes through nonlinear components such an power amplifier.
