The chirp spread spectrum (CSS) technique that spreads the data signal over a wider frequency band via chirp signal for transmission has attracted much attention in the field of wireless communications due to capability to resist multipath fading signals. However, there has been little mathematical analysis for the performance of CSS-based communication systems in the multipath fading environments. In this paper, we study the influence of the multipath channel on the direct modulation (DM) scheme with M-ary phase shift keying (MPSK). When a chirp signal is transmitted on the Rayleigh fading channel and affected by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), we derive the theoretical performance. From numerical results, it is confirmed that the analytic symbol error rate (SER) agrees closely with the empirical SER.

This paper describes the improvement of broadband radio channel characteristics using a MMSE adaptive equalization technique as a fundamental study of high transmission rates in indoor radio channel. First, the performance of 16-QAM system that employs a MMSE linear adaptive equalizer in Rayleigh fading channel is analyzed. Next, in order to improve broadband radio channel characteristics, we apply an adaptive equalization technique employing the MMSE algorithm to the radio channel measured by using circularly polarized antenna under indoor NLOS(non-line-of sight) environment. Consequently, for 16-QAM with adaptive equalizer, we can achieve the improvement of about 13 dB at $10^{-3}$ error rate as compared with general 16-QAM. Moreover, it was found that the adaptive equalization technique could improve broadband radio channel characteristics over the all measured areas. Also, it was found that the employing both adaptive equalization and polarization diversity technique together could improve broadband radio channel characteristics and reduce fading more effectively.

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks provide communication without a centralized infrastructure, which makes them suitable for communication in disaster areas or when quick deployment is needed. On the other hand, they are susceptible to malicious exploitation and have to face different challenges at different layers due to its open Ad-hoc network structure which lacks previous security measures. Denial of service (DoS) attack is one that interferes with the radio transmission channel causing a jamming attack. In this kind of attack, an attacker emits a signal that interrupts the energy of the packets causing many errors in the packet currently being transmitted. In harsh environments where there is constant traffic, a jamming attack causes serious problems; therefore measures to prevent these types of attacks are required. The objective of this paper is to carry out the simulation of the jamming attack on the nodes and determine the DoS attacks in OPNET so as to obtain better results. We have used effective anomaly detection system to detect the malicious behaviour of the jammer node and analyzed the results that deny channel access by jamming in the mobile Ad-hoc networks.

Mobile mobility and data reliability should be guaranteed as well as amounts of data services are essential in the era of smart media. In order to improve the reliability of high-speed data, strong channel coding and modulation techniques are required. In this paper, the structure of Turbo TCM decoder, applying high-order modulation techniques and the DPSAM method which improves performances in time-selective fading channels in the case of burst errors are suggested through the optimal decoding method and iteration decoding so as to improve bandwidth efficiency in Turbo Codes with excellent encoding gain. The proposed method in comparison with the existing method is that 3dB is superior in case that BER is $10^{-2}$ and the number of iterations is 3. In addition, the function is improved at approximately 6dB in case that BER is $10^{-3}$ and the number of iterations is 7. The proposed method requires additional bandwidth; however, the bandwidth loss can be overcome through Turbo TCM technology on the additional bit rate from the bandwidth loss.

Recently the emerging demands of the light-video encoder promotes lots of research efforts on DVC (Distributed Video Coding). As an appropriate video compression method, DVC has been studied, and Wyner-Ziv (WZ) video compression is its one representative structure. The WZ encoder splits the image into two kinds of frames, one is key frame which is compressed by conventional intra coding, and the other is WZ frame which is encoded by WZ coding. The WZ decoder decodes the key frame first, and estimates the WZ frame using temporal correlation between key frames. Estimated WZ frame (Side Information) cannot be the same as the original WZ frame due to the absence of the WZ frame information at decoder. As a result, the difference between the estimated and original WZ frames are regarded as virtual channel noise. The WZ frame is reconstructed by removing noise in side information. Therefore precise noise estimation produces good performance gain in WZ video compression by improving error correcting capability by channel code. But noise cannot be estimated precisely at WZ decoder unless there is good WZ frame information, and generally it is estimated from the difference of corresponding key frames. Also the estimated noise is limited by comparing with frame level noise to reduce the uncertainty of the estimation method. However these methods cannot provide good noise estimation for every frame or each bit plane. In this paper, we propose a noise nodel selection method which chooses a better noise model for each bit plane after generating candidate noise models. Experimental result shows PSNR gain up to 0.8 dB.

In this paper, we investigated bit error probabilities of GMSK, which is known to be one of promising modulation techniques for a digital mobile radio, under various mobile radio environments.: AWGN, slow Rayleigh fading channel, co-channel interference and adjacent channel interference. We employed an MSK-type receiver for a coherent detection and assumed degrading to both signals than adjacent channel interference. Especially, it is found that GMSK suffers more degradations than MSK from the co-channel interference. But with a high power adjacent channel interference, GMSK shows less bit error rate than MSK. The results confirm a higher spectrum efficiency of GMSK.

In the Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) system channel, a large number of bit errors occur because of Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and fading. When an image data is transmitted under the condition, reconstructed image quality is significantly degraded. In this paper, as an alternative to the error correcting code and/or automatic repeat request scheme, we propose an error recovery scheme for image data transmission. We first analyze how transmission errors in the DSRC system channel degrade image quality. Then, in order to improve image quality, we propose error resilient and concealment schemes for still image transmission using DCT-based fixed length coding, hamming code, cyclic redundancy check, and interleaver. Finally, we show its performance by an experiment.

본 논문에서는 높은 전송량을 요구하는 차세대 UHDTV(ultra-high definition television) 방송시스템을 위하여 MIMO(multi-input multi-output) 전송 기법을 고려하였다. 이러한 MIMO 전송 기법 중에서 가장 좋은 수신 성능을 나타내며, 송신 안테나 개수에 비례하여 전송량이 증가하는 LDC 전송 기법과 수신 성능 향상을 위하여 회전성상 및 심벌의 지연을 이용하는 기법을 고려하였다. 연속적인 에러가 발생하는 채널환경에서 수신 성능을 향상시키기 위해서는 신호를 분산시켜 전송하거나 신호를 섞어서 보내는 방법이 필요하다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 이러한 두 가지 기법을 동시에 고려하여 높은 전송량을 달성하면서 수신 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 회전성상이 적용된 LDC MIMO 전송 기법을 제안하고 수신 성능을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석하였다.

과학위성 1호에는 원자외선 분광기를 포함한 다섯 개의 탑재체가 있다. MMS(Mass Memory System)는 이들 탑재체가 수집한 데이터를 대용량 메모리에 저장한 후 지상국으로 보내는 역할을 하며 우주방사선에 의한 메모리 데이터의 오류와 무선 채널을 통한 Downlink 상에서 발생하는 오류를 최소화하기 위해서 소프트웨어적으로 에러를 정정할 수 있는 Reed-Solomon Code를 사용 하였다. 탑재체의 데이터를 저장하기 위한 대용량 메모리는 총 2Gbits로써 8M SRAM, 64M SDRAM, 256M SDRAM의 세 가지로 구성되어 있으며 메모리 여러 개를 하나의 모듈로 만들고 이 모듈이 층으로 쌓여서 MMS에 탑재되어 있다. SRAM에 비해서 집적도가 매우 높은 SDRAM은 공간을 적게 차지하는 장점은 있지만 우주용이 아니므로 그 안정성을 보장할 수 없으므로 우리별 3호에서 성능이 입증된 SRAM과 같이 탑재되었다. 본 연구에서는 MMS의 구조, 동작모드, Spec 및 연구 개발 내용을 소개한다.
