A new approach to designing a broadband and highly efficient class-E power amplifier based on nonlinear shunt capacitance analysis is proposed. The nonlinear shunt capacitance method accurately extracts optimum class-E power amplifier parameters, including an external shunt capacitance and an output impedance, at different frequencies. The dependence of the former parameter on the frequency is considered to select an optimal value of external shunt capacitor. Then, upon determining the latter parameter, an output matching network is optimized to obtain the highest efficiency across the bandwidth of interest. An analytical approach is presented to design the broadband class-E power amplifier of a MOSFET transistor. The proposed method is experimentally verified by a 140-170 MHz class-E power amplifier design with maximum added power efficiency of 82% and output power of 34 dBm.

Based on calculations using the macroscopic Maxwell's equations with mesoscopic boundary conditions, light absorption by a layered metal-insulator-metal (MIM) metamaterial system embedded in three different environments is investigated. Increasing the top metal thickness shifts the broad absorption band to lower dielectric-constant regions and longer wavelengths, for either TM or TE waves. Boosting the dielectric-layer thickness redshifts the broadband absorption to regions of larger dielectric constant. In air, for the dielectric-constant range of 0.86-3.40, the absorption of the system exceeds 98% across 680-1,033 nm. In seawater with optimized dielectric constant, ≥94% light absorption over 400-1,200 nm can be achieved; particularly in the wavelength range of 480-960 nm and dielectric-constant range of 0.82-3.50, the absorption is greater than 98%. In an environment with even higher refractive index (1.74), ≥98% light absorption over 400-1,200 nm can be achieved, giving better performance. The influence of angle of incidence on light absorption of the MIM system is also analyzed, and the angle tolerance for ≥90% broadband absorption of a TM wave is up to 40° in an environment with large refractive index. While the incident-angle dependence of the absorption of a TE wave is nearly the same for different circumstances, the situation is different for a TM wave.

현재 운영되고 있는 군 지휘·지원차량은 상용차량의 일부를 개조하여 제작되었으며, 군에서 필요한 통신장비 운용환경을 확보하기 위하여 통신실 내부에 별도의 컨버터를 장착하는 전원공급시스템이 적용되었다. 하지만, 이러한 전원공급시스템은 전자파 방사 노이즈를 발생시켜 차량에서 무전교신 시 잦은 잡음과 통신감도 저하 등의 문제점이 발생되었다. 이를 개선하기 위해, 엔진에 발전기를 추가 장착하여 통신장비에 필요한 전력을 공급받도록 전원공급시스템을 변경하였다. 추가 장착된 발전기는 통신장비가 운용되는 통신실과 완전히 분리된 엔진 룸에 위치하도록 설계되어 전원공급시스템에서 발생되는 전자파 방사 노이즈에 의한 영향을 감소시켜줄 것으로 기대되었다. 개선된 시스템의 효과를 검증하기 위하여 기존 차량과 신규 전원공급시스템이 적용된 차량에 대하여 광대역 방사시험을 각각 수행하였고 측정 결과를 비교하였다. 시험 결과 신규 전원공급시스템이 적용된 차량의 광대역 방사 노이즈는 국내 자동차 안전기준에 모두 만족하였으며, 기존 차량 대비 일부 주파수 구간을 제외한 대부분의 구간에서 감소함을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히, 차량 우측면의 수직편파 170~225 MHz 구간에서 최대 10.751 dB𝜇V/m 감소하였다.

Wireless wearable sensor networks have emerged as a promising technique for human motion tracking due to the flexibility and scalability. In such system several wireless sensor nodes being attached to human limb construct a wearable sensor network, where each sensor node including MEMS sensors (such as 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis magnetometer and 3-axis gyroscope) monitors the limb orientation and transmits these information to the base station for reconstruction via low-power wireless communication technique. Due to the energy constraint, the high fidelity requirement for real time rendering of human motion and tiny operating system embedded in each sensor node adds more challenges for the system implementation. In this paper, we discuss such challenges and experiences in detail during the implementation of such system with wireless wearable sensor network which includes COTS wireless sensor nodes (Imote 2) and uses TinyOS 1.x in each sensor node. Since our system uses the COTS sensor nodes and popular tiny operating system, it might be helpful for further exploration in such field.

초고속급 속도를 가지는 광대역통신서비스가 본격화됨에 따라 유선을 이용한 서비스뿐만 아니라 무선을 이용한 광대역서비스도 제공되고 있다. 이러한 초고속광대역서비스를 제공하는 무선시스템중 하나인 B-WLL 시스템은 시스템 구성상 서비스구간을 유선을 이용하여야 하는 불편함이 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해서 신규 수요지역 서비스구간을 유비쿼터스 환경의 지역무선 구축을 고려하였고, 이에 2GHz의 주파수를 이용하여 언제, 어디서든지 접속과 이동성이 요구되는 무선랜 구축을 위한 셀 설계 방안을 제시한다.

In broadband satellite multimedia (BSM) system, burst time plan (BTP) is always periodically generated. We find that this method can have a great effect on the system response ability to bandwidth requests. A general analysis model of BTP generation method is given. An optimized BTP generation (O-BTPG) method is presented by deducing the optimal bandwidth allocation period (BAP) and bandwidth allocation latency (BAL) without considering the signaling overhead caused by BTP. Then a novel asynchronous BTP generation (A-BTPG) method in which the BTP is generated asynchronously according to the traffic load from users' bandwidth requests is proposed. Simulation results show that A-BTPG can flexibly realize a trade-off between the system response ability and BTP signaling overhead. What's more, it can be widely used in various regenerative onboard switching BSM systems.

Nowadays communication network is steadily changing from a main body of telephone to a network which is creating new services such as multimedia etc. Jhis article introduces a bud of new service and new network which are able to sustain the above service. Including Korea, world advanced countries have been digitatizing their network with N-ISDN (narrowband ISDN) by e.g. 64K b/s and 1.5M b/s. New service by N-ISDN are extraordinary, though it can not solve all kinds of services. To solve these problems, a solving platform should be constituted. B-ISDN(broadband ISDN), as a platform has to be built to deal with almost all uinds of services, whatever the communication speed, communication mode or communication quality may be. Korea Telecommunication Authority(KTA) opened the narrowband ISDN(N-ISDN) at the end of 1993. This was one step previous opening of the broadband ISDN(B-ISDN) service scheduled to be rendered in 2001. B-ISDN, receiving and transmitting by far more information with high speed than the N-NSDN does, is one of G-7 Progects which the Korean government is driving foreward to raise the national scientific power to seven advan ced countries. This is also linked with an extremely high speed information network scheduled to be built by the Ministry of Communications in 2015.
