A new low-complexity differential detection technique, fractional multi-bit differential detection (FMDD), is proposed in order to improve the performance of continuous phase modulation (CPM) signals such as Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK) and Gaussian frequency shift keying (GFSK). In comparison to conventional one-bit differential detected (1DD) GFSK, the FMDD-employed GFSK provides a signal-to-noise ratio advantage of up to 1.8 dB in an AWGN channel. Thus, the bit-error rate performance of the proposed FMDD is brought close to that of an ideal coherent detection while avoiding the implementation complexity associated with the carrier recovery. In the adjacent channel interference environment, FMDD achieves an even larger SNR advantage compared to 1DD.

Many multi-modulus blind equalization algorithms (MMA) have been presented in the past to overcome the undesirable high misadjustment exhibited by the well-known constant modulus algorithm. Some of these MMA schemes, specifically tailored for quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) constellations, have also been proved to fix the phase offset error without needing any rotator at the end of the equalizer stage. In this paper, a new multi-modulus algorithm is presented for QAM signals. The contribution lies in the technique to incorporate the sliced symbols (outcomes of decision device) in the multi-modulus-based weight adaptation process. The convergence characteristics of the proposed sliced multi-modulus algorithm (S-MMA) is demonstrated by way of simulations, and it is shown that it gives better steady-state performance in terms of residual inter-symbol interference and symbol-error rate. It has also been shown that the proposed algorithm exhibits lesser steady-state misadjustment compared to the best reported MMA.

A 10-Gbit/s wireless communication system operating at a carrier frequency of 300 GHz is presented. The modulation scheme is amplitude shift keying in incoherent mode with a high intermediate frequency (IF) of 30 GHz and a bandwidth of 20 GHz for transmitting a 10-Gbit/s baseband (BB) data signal. A single sideband transmission is implemented using a waveguide-tapered 270-GHz high-pass filter with a lower sideband rejection of around 60 dB. This paper presents an all-electronic design of a terahertz communication system, including the major modules of the BB and IF band as well as the RF modules. The wireless link shows that, aided by a clock and data recovery circuit, it can receive $2^7$-1 pseudorandom binary sequence data without error at up to 10 Gbit/s for over 1.2 m using collimating lenses, where the transmitted power is 10 ${\mu}W$.

This paper proposes the new reclosing scheme considering the recovery time of SFCL in distribution systems which is based on variable dead time control. The main idea is that it uses the carrier signal to distinguish whether the fault is instantaneous or permanent following initial recloser opening. The system and SFCL is modeled by using Electromagnetic Transient Program(EMTP) and the validity of the reclosing scheme represented in this paper is analyzed according to the value of the fault resistance and the time of the fault removal.

최근 3D HDTV에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 우리나라에서도 3D HDTV 표준을 제정하기 위한 준비가 이루어지고 있으며, 이와 같은 흐름에 맞추어 기존의 ATSC 전송 방식을 확장한 전송 방식이 연구되고 있다. 확장된 ATSC 전송 방식은 지상파 3D HDTV 방송을 목표로 하고, 프레임 구조를 중국의 지상파 방송 표준인 DMB-T와 유사하게 PN 시컨스와 데이터가 연속되는 구조로 모델링하여 이용하고자 한다. 연구되고 있는 확장한 전송방식은 기존의 ATSC 시스템의 VSB 변조방식을 기반으로 한다. 그러므로 원활한 수신을 위해서는 반송파 주파수 오차(심볼속도 대비 최대 1%)를 정확하게 추정하고 복구하여야 한다. 기존 ATSC 시스템은 주파수 대역(DC 1.25V)의 파일럿 신호를 이용하여 반송파 주파수 복구를 하였지만, 확장된 ATSC 시스템은 프레임 헤드 부분인 PN 시컨스를 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 확장된 ATSC 전송 시스템 방식에 적용 가능한 반송파 주파수 복구 방식을 제안하였다.

MCMA(modified constant modulus algorithm) accomplishes blind equalization and carrier phase recovery simultaneously. But, the error level of MCMA is not zero when the equalizer converges completely. Because the MCMA uses a special signal point instead of a original signal point. MCMA-DO(decision-directed) improves the steady-state performance but the performance of equalizer is decided by switching time between the MCMA and the DD. In this paper, according to the residual ISI(intersymbol interference) of the equalizer output, the most suitable switching time is decided automatically.

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.

A microscopic mass balance approach has been developed to estimate the extent and rate of absorption for camier-mediated comounds. For the case competitive inhibition in the presence of an inhibitor which shares the same camier, the fraction dose absorbed (F) and absorption rate constant ($K_a$) of a drug can be calculated from its concentration profile in the intestinal lumen. Absorption parameters obtained by single-pass perfusion experiments were used in the simultaion of the absorption of some aminopenicilins. Predicted fractions dose absorbed and absorption rate constants of ampicilin and amoxicilin were significantly reduced in the presence of a 6-times higher molar dose of cyclacilin. The drug-drug interactions on the competitive absroption of camier-mediated compounds were determined with regard to F and $K_a$. Predicted decreases in F for some aminopenicilins corrlated well with decrease in the urinary recovery in humans reported in the literature. Predicted decrease in the mean absorption rate constant ($\barK_a$) explain the delays in the time of peak plasma concentration ($T_{max}$) reported in humans.

Graphene has been widely considered a promising candidate for high-quality chemical sensors, owing to its outstanding characteristics, such as sensitive gas adsorption at room temperature, high conductivity, high flexibility, and high transparency. However, the main drawback of a graphene-based gas sensor is the necessity for external heaters due to its slow response, incomplete recovery, and low selectivity at room temperature. Conventional heating devices have limitations such as large volume, thermal safety issues, and high power consumption. Moreover, metal-based heating systems cannot be applied to transparent and flexible devices. Thus, to solve this problem, a method of supplying the thermal energy necessary for gas sensing via the self-heating of graphene by utilizing its high carrier mobility has been studied. Herein, we provide a brief review of recent studies on self-activated graphene-based gas sensors. This review also describes various strategies for the self-activation of graphene sensors and the enhancement of their sensing properties.

Local lifetime control by ion implantation has become an useful tool for production of modern power devices. In this work, punch-through diodes were irradiated with protons for the high speed power diode fabrication. Proton irradiation was executed at the various energy and dose conditions. Characterization of the device was performed by I-V, C-V and Trr measurement. We obtained enhanced reverse recovery time characteristics which was about 45% of original device and about 73% of electron irradiated device. The measurement results showed that proton irradiation was able to effectively reduce minority carrier lifetime.
