This paper proposes a practical method for AGC (Automatic Gain Control) in WiBro (Wireless Broadband) AT (Access Terminal) system. Downlink packets in this system consist of preamble symbols for AGC, AFC (Automatic Frequency Control) and other purposes and data symbols for traffic transmission. In this paper we compare theoretical BER (Bit Error Rate) performance with simulation results and produce optimum parameters for AGC in this system. And we propose an efficient AGC scheme before synchronization.

A broadband optical coupler with a broad bandwidth of 1000 nm based on a photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is investigated. The PCF has 6 layers of air hole structures and a diameter of $130{\mu}m$. The PCF-based coupler is fabricated by using a fused biconical tapering method based on heating and elongation processes. Changing temperature and an elongation length can control the bandwidth and the bandedge wavelength of the PCF-based broadband coupler. The diameter of the fused region in the PCF-based coupler was measured to be $23{\mu}m$. The fabricated PCF-based coupler has a nearly-flat coupling ration of 3-dB in a broad bandwidth of 1000 nm, which is wider than that of the previously reported PCF-based coupler and that of the single-modefiber-based coupler. Since the resolution of optical coherence tomography system is proportional to the bandwidths of both an optical light sources and an interferometer, the fabricated PCF-based broadband optical coupler has a great potential for realization of a broadband interferogram.

This paper describes the improvement of broadband radio channel characteristics using a MMSE adaptive equalization technique as a fundamental study of high transmission rates in indoor radio channel. First, the performance of 16-QAM system that employs a MMSE linear adaptive equalizer in Rayleigh fading channel is analyzed. Next, in order to improve broadband radio channel characteristics, we apply an adaptive equalization technique employing the MMSE algorithm to the radio channel measured by using circularly polarized antenna under indoor NLOS(non-line-of sight) environment. Consequently, for 16-QAM with adaptive equalizer, we can achieve the improvement of about 13 dB at $10^{-3}$ error rate as compared with general 16-QAM. Moreover, it was found that the adaptive equalization technique could improve broadband radio channel characteristics over the all measured areas. Also, it was found that the employing both adaptive equalization and polarization diversity technique together could improve broadband radio channel characteristics and reduce fading more effectively.

It is generallyaccepted that broadband access technologies will play an important role in the National Information Infrastructure. However, the provision of direct fibers to residential and small business customers has always been considered a challenge. To accelerage the provision of Broadband Access Facilities, alternatibe paths could be identified and actaivated in parallel. In this paepr, we present an overview of the alternative access technologies focusing on xDSL, FTTx, HFC, HFR, and suggest the modeling of the access netetwork systems which is using of the technologies. Also to investigate the economics of each access systems, we derve the numerical equations which is summed up the al parameter including the labor cost of the model system. The proposed equation has a variable which is the cell size (or subsciber clusters) and calculate the real cost values which is normalized by the copper cable unit cost. From the numerical resutls, we conclude that the economic access method to provide these broadband capabilities is depended on the subscriber penetration, the patterns of subscriber distribution density and existing communication infrastructures. It can be expected that our analytical model and equations provides an elegant solution to choose the optimal broadband access technologies to residential and small business customers.

The nonlinear modal interaction of an autoparametric system under a broadband random excitation is investigated. The specific system examined is an autoparametric vibration absorber with internal resonance, which is typical of many common structural configurations. By means of Gaussian closure scheme the dynamic moment equations explaining the random responses of the system are reduced to a system of autonomous ordinary differential equations of the first and second moments. In view of equilibrium solutions of this system and their stability we examine the system responses. We could not find the destabilizing effect of damping, which was reported in References (18) and (20). The saturation phenomenon, which is well known in deterministic nonlinear system, did not take place lot this system subject to broadband random excitation.

The Delay Threshold-based Priority Queueing (DTPQ) scheme has been shown useful for scheduling both real-time (RT) and non-real-time (NRT) service traffic in mobile broadband wireless access (MBWA) systems. The overall system capacity can be maximized subject to their QoS requirement by the DTPQ scheme, which takes the urgency of the RT service into account only when their head-of-line (HOL) packet delays exceed a given delay threshold. In practice, the optimum delay threshold must be configured under the varying service scenarios and a corresponding traffic load, e.g., the number of RT and NRTusers in the system. In this paper, we propose an adaptive version of DTPQ scheme, which updates the delay threshold by taking the urgency and channel conditions of RT service users into account. By evaluating the proposed approach in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access/time division duplex (OFDM/TDD)-based broadband mobile access system, it has been found that our adaptive scheme significantly improves the system capacity as compared to the existing DTPQ scheme with a fixed delay threshold.

Wibro is stand for Wireless Broadband Internet called as Portable Internet, Wireless Broadband Internet or Wireless High-Speed Internet. This provides hish-speed internet service anytime, anywhere, from anyone and device with seamless mobility and the band is located between Mobile phone and wireless LAN. Wibro service should support handover to maintain connection continuously in movement because the service is based on If system which is different from cellular system. Current Mitre Mobility system and general Mobile If system has got a problem of delayed speed and lost packets during handover. IETF protocol has been proposed for minimizing this problem and its standardization is under process, mainly focused on Mip4, Mip6 and Mipshop WG. This article studies and analyzes an effective method of minimizing handover delay to improve the problem of WiBro system and its revitalization & outlook.

The present experimental study deals with noise reduction and improvements in cooling performance in a plasma display panel (PDP) television (TV). The main ideas of the fan system noise reduction are maintenance of uniform inflow condition and reduction of the system loss, ${\Delta}P.$ The discrete noise is mainly related with the inflow condition therefore removing the structure which distorts inflow makes the discrete noise reduction. The broadband noise in PDP TV is related with the system losses which result from the presence of the fan downstream obstacle, PDP rear case. Through the modification of the distance and preventing the leakage flow between the fan and rear case, we can obtain the system loss and broadband noise reduction. Additionally we can reduce fan rotating speed because of increased flow rate which obtains from the reduction of system loss (resistance). Finally, 4.2 dB(A) noise reduction and $10\%$ increase in flow rate are achieved. From these results, we show that the reduction of system loss is the most effective way of the fan system noise reduction.

This paper presents a noble operation and maintenance system for the optical subscriber loops and its feasibility through several experiments. In this system, a broadband CW (Continuous Wave) light source I used as monitoring of testing signals. and a FGF(Fiber Grating Filter) of which reflective wavelength is independent, is inserted somewhere in each subscriber loop for the reflection of monitoring of testing signals. The propose of the system is quick decision. whether the loop is just fault or not. rather than detailed information of loop state. At present, most of operation and maintenance system for the optical subscriber loops adopts OTDR(optical time domain reflectometer) for testing function. the OTDR is useful for detailed test, but not adequate for simple test because of long testing time . And it is difficult to test PON network by using general OTDR that has a single-wavelength light source. Compared to using OTDR, the proposed system can afford to shorten testing time and to test PON network. Moreover, we can cut down the system cost by simplifying circuits of the optical light sources. Our results show that the proposed system operates well according to the purpose mentioned above.
