We analyzed the receiving performance of the DVB-S2 transmission system in the BC(Backward Compatibility) mode. The transmitter employs the hierarchical modulation, and the receiver can be implemented by the direct demodulation or the hierarchical demodulation. The performance of each demodulation scheme is analyzed by a statistical method and a computer simulation for the AWGN and nonlinear channels. The ratio of the LP/HP streams which is proper in the domestic satellite broadcasting environments, is also suggested.

This paper presents a new switchable dual mode VCO(Voltage-Controlled Oscillator). The VCO is efficient in dual mode operation and has self-bias adjustment based on the operation frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The switching is done using MOS transistors and tuning is done using MOS varactors. It is implemented using TSMC 0.18${\mu}$m CMOS technology. It is powered by 1.8V supply. The measured results showed that the overall tuning range is approximately 13% at 5 GHz and 8% at 2.4 GHz. The measured phase noise is approximately -102 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset for 5 GHz and -89 dBc/Hz at 600kHz offset for 2.4 GHz. The VCO showed tail currents of 2mA in 5GHz mode and 2.5mA in 2.4GHz mode from a 1.8 V supply, respectively.

This paper presents a high-efficiency current mode class-D(CMCD) power amplifier for the 13.56 MHz band using a Guanella's 1:1 transmission-line transformer and filtering circuits at the output network. The second and third s are filtered out in the load network of the class-D amplifier. The implemented CMCD power amplifier exhibited a power gain of 13.4 dB and a high power-added efficiency(PAE) of 84.6 % at an output power of 44.4 dBm using the 13.56 MHz CW input signal. The second and third distortion levels were -50.3 dBc and -46.4 dBc at the same output power level, respectively.

For LDPC decoding, received symbols are splitted bit by bit based using the received in-phase and quadrature components. The method of bit-splitting is affected on decoding performance because its method depend on distance over symbol constellation. Therefore this paper propose the bit split method using the sector information with sacrifice a little performance loss compared to Euclidean distance method. Futhermore DVB-S2 specification supports BC(Backward Compactible) mode which using the hierarchical modulation method, this paper also analyze the decoding performance according to deviation angle of 8PSK constellation for various LDPC coding rates.

A power amplifier operating at 3.3 V has been developed for CDMA/AMPS dual-mode cellular phones. It consists of linear GaAs power MESFET's, a new gate bias control circuit, and an output matching circuit which prevents the drain terminal of the second MESF from generating the harmonics. The relationship between the intermodulation distortion and the spectral regrowth of the power amplifier has been investigated with gate bias by using the two-tone test method and the adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACPR) method of CDMA signals. The dissipation power of the power amplifier with a gate bias control circuit is minimized to below 1000 mW in the range of the low power levels while satisfying the ACPR of less than -26 dBc for CDMA mode. The ACPR of the power amplifier is measured to be -33 dBc at a high output power of 26 dBm.

A study of the operation of surface and buried mode PMOSFET's is condusted. Using device with different channel length and channel implant dosage, threshold voltage lowering, transcon-diuctance and subthreshold characteristics of surface mode PMOFET are compared with those of buried mode MPOSFET. From the results, the surface channel device were more resistant to short channel effect than the buried channel device.

이 연구는 DVB-S2 BC(Backward Compatibility) 모드에서 대역폭 효율을 개선하기 위한 새로운 계층적 변조방식을 제안하였다. DVB-S2 표준은 기존 DVB-S 방송 서비스와의 역호환성을 위하여 비대칭 8-PSK를 사용하며, 이 방식은 DVB-S의 경우보다는 대역폭 효율이 개선되나 DVB-S2 NBC(Non Backward Compatibility) 모드보다는 개선도가 미약하다 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 DVB-S2 NBC에서 사용하는 16APSK 변조방식을 DVB-S2 BC 모드에서 사용할 수 있도록 변형하였으며, 변형된 16-APSK 방식에 대한 수신 성능을 통계적 방법을 통하여 분석하였다.

The effects of the modification of hybrid vehicle components on diesel exhaust emissions were investigated in this study. We examined the changes in exhaust emissions and the fuel consumption (FC) caused by the modification of generator (alternator) and motors. Exhaust emissions such as black carbon (BC), HC, $NO_X$ and $CO_2$ were measured not only in idle state but also on an actual urban road as well as on a chassis dynamometer. BC, $NO_X$ and HC emissions increased by 95%, 27% and 34% respectively when the generator charged the battery in the idle condition. BC and FC decreased in hybrid mode on the actual urban road partly because the motors were used to assist the diesel engine. In addition, the decreases in exhaust emissions and FC were also evident in the hybrid mode when the vehicle was tested on the chassis dynamometer.

The saccharogenic liquid (SFW) obtained by the enzymatic saccharification of food wastes was used as a medium for production of bacterial cellulose (BC). The enzymatic saccharification of food wastes was carried out by the cultivation supernatant of Tricoderma inhamatum KSJ1 culture. Acetobacter xylinum KJ1 was employed for the BC production culture. Under the scaled-up aeration condition of 1.0 vvm, 5.64 g/L of BC was produced in 3 days cultivation in 50 L air circulation bioreactor using SFW medium with addition of 0.4% agar. The productivity was similar to that of 10 L air circulation bioreactor (5.84 g/L). This cultivation method with 50 L air circulation bioreactor decreasing shear stress and increasing oxygen transfer coefficient ($k_La$) was very useful in BC mass production. The physical properties, such as morphology, molecular weight, crystallinity, and tensile strength of BC produced by the static culture (A), the air circulation culture using 10 L bioreactor (B) and 50 L bioreactor (C) were investigated. The number average molecular weight of BCs produced under the different culture conditions (A-C) showed 2,578,000, 1,975,000, and 1,809,000, respectively. Tensile strength was 1.72 $kg/mm^2$, 1.19 $kg/mm^2$, and 1.18 $kg/mm^2$, respectively. All of the BCs had a form of cellulose I representing pure cellulose. The relative degree of crystallinity showed the range of 86.2$\sim$87.8%. BC production by the air circulation culture mode brought more favorable results in terms of the physical properties and its ease of scale-up. Therefore, it is expected that the new BC production method, the air circulation culture using SFW, would contribute greatly to BC-related manufacturing.

In this paper, a 23 GHz push-push oscillator was designed and fabricated for 23 GHz point-to-point communication using split ring resonator. The split ring resonator was equivalent circuit and numerical method of MPIE(Mixed Potential Integral Equation). The analysis of split ring resonator which coupled between microstrip lines was carried out with transmission-mode using this results.
