In this paper, the simple analog MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm is proposed for the solar array of KOMPSAT (Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite). This method doesn't need any calculation of power by multiplication of voltage and current and a measurement of the solar array temperature. It is consist of only two sample and hold circuits, two comparators, a flip-flop, and an integrator. The proposed MPPT algorithm is verified by the simulation for the 100[W] solar array.

Adaptive array is using the array of antenna elements spatially and its output is the sum of each antenna elements output signal which is multiplied by the controlled weight coefficients corresponding to each elements For the 4 elements equidistance linear array antenna system LMS and RLS algorithm was used as the adaptive instruction principles and the application results to the constant amplitude envelope signals such as BPSK can be seen that the computer simulation results are very fast in the convergence characteristics of directional patterns and the signal following characteristics.

To reduce the interferences between the radio equipments which are operated in frequency hopping mode, the frequency resource should be assigned to each equipment without overlapping when several groups of radio equipments operate in the same area. If the radio equipments are in a different area, the partial frequency overlaying can be permitted. From the isotropic multi-dimensional array, several frequency assignment tables can be extracted for a same area. Also several tables can be extracted for different areas. Since there can be no overlapped frequencies between the tables for the same area, no interference between the radio equipments in an area is guaranteed. The frequencies overlapped between 2 tables for 2 different areas are pre-planed as required. The interference performance in frequency hopping radio can be controlled as desired using the proposed Frequency Resource Assignment Algorithm using Isotropic multi-dimensional Array.

In this paper, we present a performance improvement method for the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm of the narrowband signals incident on a uniform circular array. It is very important to estimate the covariance matrix effectively because the performance of DOA algorithm mainly depends on the exactness of the sampel coveriance matrix which is computed from the received samples of signals. In case of uniform circular array with the even number sensors, the structure of the arrray has a useful geometrical property. Therefore we present the method which can estimate covariance matrix more effectively using this property. The simulation results are shown to demonstrate the superior perfodrmance obtained by the proposed covariance matrix estimation method relative to that of the conventional estimation method.

Element failure occurs with high probability for every array used in the real world ; that is, it is a common phenomenon that there are one or more elements with no output. Element failure produces an elevated sidelobe level and fails to reject the interference signals in an adaptive beamformer. In this paper, we present the adaptive beamforming algorithm for array with element failure. The presented method minimizes the array output power subject to a set of linear constraints which maintain the frequency response in the look direction and force the weights of the inoperative elements to zero. Numerical results have been included.

In this paper, we studied to direction of arrival (DoA) estimation to use DoA and optimum weight algorithms in coherent interference channels. The DoA algorithm have been considerable attention in signal processing with coherent signals and a limited number of snapshots in a noise and an interference environment. This paper is a proposed method for the desired signal estimation using MUSIC algorithm and adaptive beamforming to compare classical subspace techniques. Also, the proposed method is combined the updated weight value with LCMV beamforming algorithm in adaptive antenna array system for direction of arrival estimation of desired signal. The proposed algorithm can be used with combination to MUSIC algorithm, linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming (LCMV) and the weight value method to accurately desired signal estimation. Through simulation, we compare the proposed method with classical direction of in order to desired signals estimation. We show that the propose method has achieved good resolution performance better that classical direction arrival estimation algorithm. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Most sensor array signal processing methods for multiple source localization require knowledge of the correct shape of array(the correct positions of sensors that consist array), because sensor position uncertainty can severely degrade the performance of array signal processing. In particular, it is assumed that the correct positions of the sensors are known, but the known positions may not represent the true sensor positions. Various algorithms have been proposed for 2-D sensor array shape calibration in far field environment. However, they are not available in near field. In this paper, 3-D sensor array shape calibration algorithm is proposed, which is available in near field.

Monopulse RADAR is the radar which detects the range of the target using a single transmitted signal. In this paper, using 9.41GHz X-band radar, the research for the phase comparison monopulse algorithm used in the marine environment is conducted. In addition, by applying the phase comparison monopulse algorithm, we calculate the RMSE for the various antenna spacings and the positions of the target. Based on that result, we compare the performance of the phase comparison monopulse algorithm in the uniform linear array with that in the non-uniform linear array. Finally, the differences in performance among the MUSIC algorithm, Bartlett method and the proposed phase comparison monopulse algorithm are analyzed.

This paper proposed a control algorithm to compensate the delay time to improve the signal to noise, and the proposed control algorithm estimate the target information to apply the continuous wave radar equation. The proposed control algorithm improves the output signal of each array element bv multiplying the weight of the receive signal to the signal to noise ratio. Radar radiate a signal in spatial and the target information is estimated by the echoed signal from the target. But the signal in the wireless communication environment occurs the delay time due to the multipath which appear human and natural structures. It is difficult to accurately estimate the desired information because of the degradation for the system performance due to the interference signal and the signal distortion. The target information can be improved by compensating the delay signal to apply the weight to the received signal by using the uniform linear array antenna. As a simulation result, we show that the performance of the proposed control algorithm and the non-compensated delay time are compared. The proposed control algorithm proved that the target distance estimation information is improved.

Using biometrics to verify a person's identity has several advantages over the present practices of personal identification numbers (PINs) and passwords. At the same time, improvements in VLSI technology have recently led to the introduction of smart cards with 32-bit RISC processors. To gain maximum security in verification systems using biometrics, verification as well as storage of the biometric pattern must be done in the smart card. However, because of the limited resources (processing power and memory space) of the smart card, integrating biometrics into it is still an open challenge. In this paper, we propose a fingerprint verification algorithm using a multi-resolution accumulator array that can be executed in restricted environments such as the smart card. We first evaluate both the number of instructions executed and the memory requirement for each step of a typical fingerprint verification algorithm. We then develop a memory-efficient algorithm for the most memory-consuming step (alignment) using a multi-resolution accumulator array. Our experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the required memory space by a factor of 40 and can be executed in real time in resource-constrained environments without significantly degrading accuracy.
