A design paradigm using sequential geometric programming is presented to accurately design CMOS op amps with BSIM3. It is based on new adaptive modeling of transistor parameters through the operating point simulation. This has low modeling cost as well as great simplicity and high accuracy. The short-channel dc, high-frequency small-signal, and short-channel noise models are used to characterize the physical behavior of submicron devices. For low-power and low-voltage design, this paradigm is extended to op amps operating in the subthreshold region. Since the biasing and modeling errors are less than 0.25%, the characteristics of the op amps well match simulation results. In addition, small dependency of design results on initial values indicates that a designed op amp may be close to the global optimum. Finally, the design paradigm is illustrated by optimizing CMOS op amps with accurate transfer function.

Underwater communication (UWC) is widely used in coastal surveillance and early warning systems. Precise channel estimation is vital for efficient and reliable UWC. The sparse direct-adaptive filtering algorithms have become popular in UWC. Herein, we present an improved adaptive convex-combination method for the identification of sparse structures using a reweighted normalized leastmean-square (RNLMS) algorithm. Moreover, to make RNLMS algorithm independent of the reweighted l₁-norm parameter, a modified sparsity-aware adaptive zero-attracting RNLMS (AZA-RNLMS) algorithm is introduced to ensure accurate modeling. In addition, we present a quantitative analysis of this algorithm to evaluate the convergence speed and accuracy. Furthermore, we derive an excess mean-square-error expression that proves that the AZA-RNLMS algorithm performs better for the harsh underwater channel. The measured data from the experimental channel of SPACE08 is used for simulation, and results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. The simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithm for underwater channel estimation performs better than the earlier schemes.

심벌 간 간섭은 천해 수중 음향 채널에서 신뢰성 있는 고속 데이터 통신을 방해하는 주된 장해 요인 중의 하나이다. 이 논문은 수중 음향 통신 시스템에서 심벌 간 간섭을 완화시키기 위한 방법으로서 사용되는 적응 등화기의 시뮬레이션에 대하여 연구한다. 수중 채널은 다중 경로의 중첩으로 모델링하는데, 각 경로의 길이와 상대적 지연은 채널 기하로부터 계산된다. 이 채널 모델을 기반으로 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 천해 수중 음향 채널에서 적응 등화기의 성능을 탐구한다.

We propose a new bandpass filter (BPF)-based online channel normalization method to dynamically suppress channel distortion when the speech and channel noise components are unknown. In this method, an adaptive modulation frequency filter is used to perform channel normalization, whereas conventional modulation filtering methods apply the same filter form to each utterance. In this paper, we only normalize the two mel frequency cepstral coefficients (C0 and C1) with large dynamic ranges; the computational complexity is thus decreased, and channel normalization accuracy is improved. Additionally, to update the filter weights dynamically, we normalize the learning rates using the dimensional power of each frame. Our speech recognition experiments using the proposed BPF-based blind channel normalization method show that this approach effectively removes channel distortion and results in only a minor decline in accuracy when online channel normalization processing is used instead of batch processing

This paper deals with an inverse modeling of nonminimum phase communication channel utilizing the HOS (High Order Statistics) of the received signal. After the communication channel is separated into the minimum phase and maximum phase components, the inverse modeling is performed independently. The performance superiority is confirmed by monte-carlo computer simulation in comparison with the traditional CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) method. By utilizing the proposed algorithm employing the HOS of the received signal, the inverse frequency characteristics of the channel can be obtained withoug transmitted signal in digital communication. This algorithm is required in preprocessing or postprocessing in order to remove the channel effect, and effective in the self adaptive equalizer which can minimize the bit error rate or symbol error rate in the recovry of received signal.

Underwater acoustic(UWA) communication is one of the most difficult field in terms of severe channel environments such as multipath propagation, high temporal and spatial variability of channel conditions. Therefore, it is important to model and analyze the characteristics of underwater acoustic channel such as multipath propagation, transmission loss, reverberation, and ambient noise. In this paper, UWA communication channel is modeled with a ray tracing method and applied to image transmission. Quadrature phase shift keying(QPSK) and multichannel decision feedback equalizer(DFE) are utilized as phase-coherent modulation method and equalization technique, respectively. The objective is to improve the performance of the image transmission using vertical sensor array instead of single sensor in the viewpoint of bit error rate(BER), constellation diagram, and received image quality.

본 논문에서는 섹터의 트래픽 부하를 균일하게 유지시킴으로써 기지국 시스템의 전체 용량을 효과적으로 활용하기 위한 적응섹터 씬 시스템의 성능을 실제 이동통신 채널환경에서 측정한 채널 데이터를 이용하여 분석하였다. 측정은 채널 환경이 다른 여러 지점에서 1.95GHz의 QPSK 신호를 전송하였고, 높은 건물이 많은 대도시 환경의 건물옥상에 $8{\times}4$ 배열 안테나를 설치하여 전송된 신호를 수신하였다. 또한 수신된 데이터를 분석하여 각 사용자 신호의 도달각 분산 및 시간지연 분산과 전체 사용자에 대한 공간 분포 확률을 추정하였으며, 이를 결합하여 실제의 전파 환경과 유사한 벡터 채널 모델링을 제안하였다. 우리는 제안한 공간 분포 모델링을 이용하여 적응 섹터 셀 시스템 사용 시의 호 차단율의 개선정도를 분석하였으며, 컴퓨터 모의실험 결과 적응 섹터 셀 시스템의 호 차단율이 고정 섹터 셀 시스템의 비해 크게 낮음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 고정 섹터 셀 시스템의 경우에는 사용자 신호의 공간 분포 밀집도가 높을수록 호 차단율이 크게 증가하는데 비해, 적응 섹터 셀 시스템의 경우 호 차단율의 변화는 크지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper. to eliminate a cross-polarization interference caused by co-channel dual polarization technique of digital radio relay system(DRRS), a cross-polarization interference canceller(XPIC) is analysed in terms of the analytical modeling, digital design, and its performance. By virtue of a 13-tap adaptive equalizer and XPIC, about 23dB in XPIC improvement can be obtained by computer simulation. To show the operation of designed XPIC, some simulated results are reviewed under 64-QAM DRRS with co -channel dual Polarization.
