Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology is gaining increasing interest for its potential application to short-range indoor wireless communications. Utilizing ultra-short pulses, UWB baseband transmissions enable rich multipath diversity, and can be demodulated with low complexity receivers. Compliance with the FCC spectral mask, and interference avoidance to, and from, co-existing narrow-band services, calls for judicious design of UWB pulse shapers. This paper introduces pulse shaper designs for UWB radios, which optimally utilize the bandwidth and power allowed by the FCC spectral mask. The resulting baseband UWB systems can be either single-band, or, multi-band. More important, the novel pulse shapers can support dynamic avoidance of narrow-band interference, as well as efficient implementation of fast frequency hopping, without invoking analog carriers.

The OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) systems are based en the transmission of a given set of signals on multiple orthogonal subcarriers, resulting in large variation in amplitude of transmit signals, and severe distortion by nonlinear characteristic of a high power amplifier (HPA) is unavoidable. We propose in this paper a computationally efficient structure of a baseband predistorter for compensation of nonlinear distortion by the HPA. Moreover, a predistorter which can be utilized in high speed transmission systems such as wireless ATM based on the proposed structure is designed using VHDL, and synthesized by the Synopsys tool.

KT will deploy HSPA+/CCC network in this year to handle data explosion. CCC is an evolutionary wireless network architecture which divides a node B into baseband and radio part. By collecting baseband units in a digital unit central station and installing only remote units on desired sites, the operator can reduce the total cost of ownership and $CO_2$ emission. In this paper, we describe some expected problems in deploying HSPA+/CCC network, and how to implement the wireless network planning system to solve them effectively.

최근 들어 무선 ATM, 무선 LAN 및 디지털 지상 방송 시스템 등을 위한 고속 전송 방식으로 큰 관심을 받고 있는 OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) 방식은 다중 직교 부반송파를 이용하여 신호를 전송함으로써 전송 신호 진폭의 변화가 매우 심하여 고출력 증폭기의 비선형 특성으로 인한 심각한 왜곡이 발생된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 비선형 왜곡의 보상을 위한 기저대역 사전왜곡기 (baseband predistorter)를 실제 구현할 때 계산 복잡도를 크게 감소할 수 있는 효율적인 구조를 제안하였다. 또한, 이러한 구조에 기반하여 수십 Mbps급 고속 무선 ATM 등에 사용 가능한 사전왜곡기를 VHDL을 이용하여 설계하고 ASIC화를 위하여 Synopsys tool을 통해 합성하였으며 실제 Altera FPGA에 구현하여 이의 성능을 검증하였다.

In this paper, a specification for wireless LAN MODEM using direct sequence spread spectrum (DS/SS) technique is presented. Some algorithms and hardware architectures for an efficient implementation of the DS/SS MODEM are suggested. In the method, all baseband signal processing are done digitally for single chip implementation. Schemes of DQPSK baseband modulation/demodulation, despreading with digital matched filter, digital timing recovery, and efficient carrier sensing are among the discussed algorithms. We also performed various kinds of simulations to evaluate the system performance and to extract parameters for hardware implementation. In addition, the pictorial view of ASIC of the SS MODEM is also shown.

In this paper, the linearized power amplifier using digital adaptive predistorter is implemented in order to restrict spectral spreading and adjacent channel interference. The linearized systems is composed of a DSP56001 processor that executes predistortion in baseband. 90.deg. phase shifter, power splitter/combiner, quadrature modulator/demodulator of 360MHz band, and nonlinear amplifier. A ${\pi}$/4-shift QPSK is used to modulate digital random signals. As the quantized power of baseband signal and the output of amplifier are fed to the predistorter, and predistorting values are calculated using an adaptive algorithm. In the experiment, a peak to sidelobe ratio of the linearized amplifier is improved up to 15dB in comparison with conventional nonlinear amplifier, which means that the distortion of transmitted signal is decreased and adjacent channel interference was reduced.

지금까지 알려진 여러 가지 음성부호화 방식들 중 4.8에서 9.6kbits/s 사이의 전송속도에서 제일 좋은 성능을 갖는 것은 Residual-Excited linear prediction 방식이다. RELP 부호화 방식은 전송속도가 낮을 때 합성음이 거칠거나 금속성의 잡음을 갖는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 보완하여 음질을 개선하는 세가지의 방법들을 제안하며, 그들은 다음과 같다. 첫째는 여러개의 baseband를 이용한 spectral folding 방법이고, 둘째는 spectral folding 방법과 pulsed excitation 방법을 조합한 방법이며, 마 지막 방법은 여러개의 baseband를 사용한 spectral folding 방법과 pulsed excitation 방법을 조합한 방법 이다. 이 방법들을 사용하여 RELP vocoder의 음질을 많이 개선할 수 있으며, 9.6kbits/s 근처의 전송속 도에서 사용하기 위한 첫 번째 방법과 세 번째 방법은 spectral fording 이나 nonlinear distortion 방법 에서 문제가 되는 roughness 나 tonal noise를 거의 인지 할 수 없으며, 세 번째 방법이 첫 번째 방법보 다 우수하다. 두 번째 방법은 4.8 kbits/s 근처의 전송속도에 적합하며, 기존의 RELP 방식들에 비해 많 은 음질향상을 가져왔다. 제안한 세가지 방법들을 같은 조건에서 비교할 때 세 번째 방법이 가장 우수 하며, 이 경우 합성음은 원음과 거의 흡사하다.

The existence of peroodic impulse noises in distribution line carrier (DLC) communication system is known to be the most serious obstacle for improving DLC communication quality in reliability and capacity. From the spectral points, impulse noises can be divided into baseband type and modulation type the noise width of whichs are much different each other. With each nose type, this study presents the basic characteristics in relation to what they originate from and how their spectrum properties are revealed. The baseband type impulse noise is normally caused from thyristor circuit running with low switching speed and the modulation type noise from the circuit of switching power supply. The base wave of modulation noise is shown to be the pulsuatic charging current to primary condenser in switching power circuit. The study result indicates also that placing the DLC carrier frequency away the band predominated by modulated noise especially from RCC type switching power circuit is very important in DLC design.

Most A/D converters which encode baseband signals of several magahertz band width to accuracies such as 8 bits are complez and therefore expensive. This letter suggests that a simple fast digital encoder can be formed the combination of V.C.O. and digital discriminator, automatically elimnating the complex logic process of conventional fast baseband A/D converters. The techique is suitable for encoding video signals to 8bits.
