In this paper, we propose an algorithm for the wideband beamforming in a conformal phased array antenna by compensating the errors. For the wideband beamforming, we used the True Time Delay(TTD), which was fabricated on the RF circuit board to obtain long delay lines. Beamforming errors in the conformal array antenna are the mutual coupling between the array elements, the dispersive error in the TTD circuit, and the quantization error by the digital control. We apply the compensation algorithm to the conformal phased array antenna of wideband 2~4 GHz, and verify the usefulness by comparing the results with the experiment results.

In-situ stress measurement using AE (Acoustic Emission) and DRA (Deformation Rate Analysis) is usually carried out under uniaxial loading in the laboratory and it consumes delay time from drilling to testing. Therefore, it should be considered how the lateral stress and delay time influence on the test results for the in-situ stress determination. As the delay time increased, the accuracy of estimating the pre-stress decreased. The pre-stress of the specimen loaded only axially was determined within an error of less than 9% (using AE) and 4% (using DRA). And the specimen on which axial pre-stress and the confining pressure were loaded had an error of less than 17% (using AE) and 14% (using DRA). The results of AE and DRA for field specimens were very similar with each other but smaller than those of hydraulic fracturing method.

통신 채널에서 블라인드 채널 등화는 훈련신호나 채널의 사전 정보가 필요하지 않기 때문에 전송 효율을 높일 수 있는 매우 중요한 문제이다. 선형 예측 오차 방법은 블라인드 등화기의 차수 추정 오차에 대하여 강인하며 적응 알고리듬을 이용하여 효율적으로 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 시스템 지연은 등화기의 성능에 많은 영향을 끼치지만 기존의 one-step 선형 예측은 등화기의 임의의 시스템 지연에 대해서는 구현할 수 없는 단점이 있다. 순방향 선형 예측과 역방향 선형 예측은 각각 시스템 지연이 0과 최대인 블라인드 등화와 관련이 있다. 그러나 Multistep 예측은 임의의 시스템 지연을 갖는 블라인드 등화기를 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 최적의 시스템 지연을 구한 후 RLS 알고리듬과 LMS 알고리듬을 이용한 multistep 선형 예측을 이용한 블라인드 채널 등화기를 제안하였다. 그리고 기존의 알고리듬들과 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리듬의 성능을 모의실험을 통하여 기존의 알고리듬들과 비교·평가하였다.

The position accuracy is primarily dependent on the satellite position and signal delay caused by several elements. To know the effect of the delay on the estimated positions, we simulated GPS raw data (RINEX) with GPS errors using Bernese ver5.0. GPS errors used in this paper are Ionospheric delay, Cycle slip, Troposphere, DOP and Random error. If the baseline is short, the position error according to TEC is not large, since the ionospheric delay effect can be removed by ion-free combination. However, if the baseline is long, 3 dimensional position error up to 10cm is occurred. The 3D position error of coordinates with cycle slip is hardly ever changed up to 60% of cycle slip. Because the simulated cycle slips are equally distributed on satellites, the positioning was not seriously affected by the cycle slip. Also, if percentage of cycle slip is 60%, three dimensional error is sharply increased over 1m. The position error is calculated by using the observation data (2 hours) which was selected by DOP less than 3. And its accuracy is more improved about $3{\sim}4cm$.

For ionospheric correction of low earth orbiter (LEO) satellites using single frequency global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver, ionospheric scale factor should be applied to the ground-based ionosphere model. The ionospheric scale factor can be calculated by using a NeQuick model, which provides a three-dimensional ionospheric distribution. In this study, the ionospheric scale factor is calculated by using NeQuick G model during 2015, and it is compared with the scale factor computed from the combination of LEO satellite measurements and international GNSS service (IGS) global ionosphere map (GIM). The accuracy of the ionospheric delay calculated by the NeQuick G model and IGS GIM with NeQuick G scale factor is analyzed. In addition, ionospheric delay errors calculated by the NeQuick G model and IGS GIM with the NeQuick G scale factor are compared. The ionospheric delay error variations along to latitude and solar activity are also analyzed. The mean ionospheric scale factor from the NeQuick G model is 0.269 in 2015. The ionospheric delay error of IGS GIM with NeQuick G scale factor is 23.7% less than that of NeQuick G model.

This paper deals with a novel utilization method of the predicted current in the high performance PI current controller with a control time delay. The inevitable error of the predicted current in the linear servo drive using a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor is analyzed and a modified cross-coupling decoupling synchronous frame PI current controller is proposed in order to improve the current control response under both the control time delay and the inevitable current prediction error. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed current controller has an improved current control performance under both the control time delay and the inevitable current prediction error in the servo drive system.

Wireless sensor network is the system for data collection and data process between many nodes. For this work, Synchronization of operation execution and ordering many events are needed. Reference the external time information is the most accurate way to have same time information for all nodes but it's hard to apply these to sensor network. So there are many study of time synchronization there are many error occurred when the time synchronization is executed in the sensor network and minimizing these errors is important. In this paper, we propose how to minimize errors using several time stamp information exchanging when the network is initialized. When the big difference is occurred between receive time and send time in the node communication(cause of traffic overhead and etc), it shows big error of time correction and transfer delay time. but it's hard to detect these errors when it exchanges time stamp information just one time. so we try to reduce these errors using the median value of transfer delay and time correction value with many times of time stamp information exchange.

본 논문에서는 정현파 소음을 제어하기 위한 filtered-x LMS에 바탕을 둔 새로운 적응 알고리듬을 제안하였다. 이러한 알고리듬은 두개의 연속적인 계수조정 식으로, 제어기의 계수를 조정한다. 서로 독립인 각 주파수별로 처리하기 때문에 빠른 수렴을 얻을 수 있다. 두번째식은 이차경로로 인한 위상지연을 추정한다. 정현 파 신호 주파수보다 4배 이상 빠른 표본화 주파수를 선택하여 추정된 위상지연 추정 값은 $2{\pi}f_0$만큼 오차를 나타내며, 이 값은 $\pi$2보다 작다. 정현파 신호의 주파수를 알면 이러한 오차는 $2{\pi}f_0$를 더함으로써 제거할 수 있다. 이러한 방법은 위상지연이 $\pi$2보다 큰 경우 수렴속도를 증가시킨다는 사실을 실험을 통하 여 알 수 있다. 추정된 위상지연은 제어기 계수값을 조정하는데 필요한 필터링된 참조신호를 발생시키믄데 사용된다. 참조신호의 위상지연이 각 주파수 성분별로 수행 되기 때문에, 콘볼루션 연산이 생략되어 계산량을 줄일 수 있다. 또한 연속적으로 위상지연을 추정하기 때문에 시변 상황에 적용이 가능하다. 조정식의 수렴조건을 유도하였다. 제안된 알고리듬은 제어기 계수를 추정하는데 바이어스가 없으며, 위상 지연추정을 위한 수렴상수의 최대허용치는 제어기계수에 대한 수렴상수에 반비례함을 이론적으로 분석을 통해 알 수 있다. 모의실험을 통하여 제안된 알고리듬이 filtered-x LMS 알고리듬에 바탕을 둔 다른 알고리듬보다 환경변화에 우수한 성능을 보임을 알 수 있다.

It is well known that reflected waves and resonance affect phase distortion. In addition, phase delay can be distorted by antenna impedance. In this study, we analyze the phase delay variation caused by the antenna impedance, considering mutual coupling effects. In addition, we confirm the beam steering characteristics. When was -10 dB and -7 dB, the maximum phase delay error was $18.5^{\circ}$ and $26.5^{\circ}$, respectively. The Monte Carlo simulation with an eight-element linear array antenna demonstrated that the RMS error of the beam steering angle ranged from $0.19^{\circ}$ to $0.4^{\circ}$, and the standard deviation ranged from $0.14^{\circ}$ to $0.33^{\circ}$ when the beam steering angle was in the range of $0^{\circ}$ to $30^{\circ}$, with the uniformly distributed phase error of $18.5^{\circ}$ and $26.5^{\circ}$. The side lobe level increased from 0.74 dB to 1.21 dB by the phase error from the theoretical value of -12.8 dB, with a standard deviation of 0.31 dB to 0.51 dB. This is verified by designing an eight-element spiral array antenna.
