In this paper, we propose an average acquisition time and hardware design of high speed PN code synchronous acquisition system using DMF(Digital Matched Filter) with new switching method in DS-SS/CDMA(Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum Code Division Multiple Access). In reality, the PN code synchronous acquisition system using DMF has very complicated hardware, high cost and high power consumption. The PN code synchronous acquisition system using proposed switching method DMF can overcome those disadvantages. Therefore, we can make hardware simple and obtain low power and high density by reducing the area by 1/5 against the conventional approaches of using either the matched filters or the serial correlators. The proposed system architecture is also simple and easily controllable since there is no square-term circuit after execution of digital filtering.

In this paper, a fast pseudo-noise (PN) code acquisition with novel adaptive architecture is presented in direct-sequence spread- spectrum (DS-SS) systems. Since an existing acquisition system has a fixed correlation tap size and threshold value, this system cannot adapt to various mobile communication environments and results in a low detection probability or a high false alarm rate and long acquisition time. Therefore, if a correlation tap size and a threshold value can be controlled adaptively according to received signals, problems of ail existing system will be solved. The system parameter varies adaptively by using constant false alarm rate (CFAR) algorithm well known in a field of detection and proposed signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) measurement system. By deriving formulas of the proposed system, the performance is analyzed.

The pattern recognition of automobile and parking line for the automatic car parking system was processed based on statistical method for reducing the processing time. The command of driving for parking at the vacant parking lot was transmitted from processor to motor driven actuator using direct sequence spread spectrum communication, which enables the multiple transmission in CAN(controller area network). The test-bed which has CCD camera, processor, radio transceiver and FPGA was implemented and demonstrated to be operated well.

Since the period of a spreading code in DS/SS communication systems is generally long, it is necessary to make the code acquisition as fast as possible. The code acquisition time can be sued as a measure to evaluate the performance of code acquisition systems. The search rate of serial search codee acquisition system used in the coventional CDMA cellular system is lower than that of the matched filter technique. In order to reduce the code acquisition time, this paper proposes hybrid code acquisition system composed filters combined with serial search blocks. In the proposed system, the matched filter sweeps possible code phases fast and the acquired phase information is verified by the serial search block. The mean and the variance of its acquisition time are calculated and compared with those of double dwell serial search system. The results indicate better performance of the proposed system by yielding its small vaues of the mean and the variance of code acquisition time.

We propose nonlinear processing schemes for robust acquisition of direct-sequence spread spectrum (DS/SS) signals in wideband pulse jamming. To mitigate the interference effect due to impulse-like wideband jamming signals, the received signal is preprocessed by using the median filter, a simple order statistic filter Since only parts of the PN sequence are used for rapid acquisition, it is indispensable for analytic design of an acquisition scheme to have an appropriate model of the partial PN signal. The partial correlation of the median filtered PN signal is approximated by a two-piecewise linear model using an approximate upper bound. The acquisition performance of the proposed schemes is compared to that of other schemes. Finally, the analytic design is verified by computer simulation.

In spite of many advantages of Meteor Burst Communications(MBC) on its transmission channel, the fact that its duty rate is less than 10 percents is a considerable deficiency of MBC. To overcome with this deficiency without paying large cost, we use a direct sequence(DS) simple reception system. This method doesn't need to add the components for acquisition or tracking the signal so that it keeps the cost efficiency of the MBC. But it has a disadvantage that its duty rate shows a large decline by noise. For this problem we adopt the proposed system applying a transversal filter circuit. The improvement by this method is more significant when the received signal is weak Simulation results show as t1 is 100ms, then the burst length would be increased by 35% when the initial value of the received signal power increases by 3 dB, t2 is 135ms. If the power increases by 6dB the burst length would be 170ms thus increased by 70%, which shows a great enhancement. Suppose now that t1 is 50ms and the power is increased by 3dB, then t2 would be increased by 70% to 85ms, and increasing the power by 6dB it would be increased by 130% to 115ms.

In this paper, we propose optimal and suboptimal serial code acquisition schemes for chip-asynchronous direct-sequence spread-spectrum systems. The conventional serial code acquisition scheme is to compare each value of correlator outputs with a threshold individually. However, such a scheme is optimum only under the chip-synchronous assumption which is actually very difficult to be held prior to acquisition at the receiver because the signal-to-noise ratios before despreading are very low. In this paper, an optimal serial code acquisition scheme is derived based on the maximum-likelihood criterion under the more realistic and general chip-asynchronous environments. A suboptimal scheme, which is simpler but yields comparable performance to the optimal one, is also derived based on the criterion of local detection power Numerical results show that, under the chip-asynchronous environments, both the optimal and suboptimal serial code acquisition schemes outperform the conventional serial code acquisition scheme.

본 논문에서는 직접행렬 대역확산 방식을 사용하여 Hadamard-Walsh 행렬을 워터마크 영상에 첨가한 후, 주파수 영역에서 원 영상에 삽입하고 복원하는 새로운 이미지 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 워터마크 영상은 시각적으로 인식 가능한 패턴(마크, 로고, 심볼, 인장 또는 서명)을 사용한다. 워터마크가 삽입된 영상의 화질저하를 추정하기 위해 PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Ratio)을 계산하고, 복원된 워터마크의 복원률(reconstructive rate)을 구하여 외부공격에 대한 워터마크의 강인성을 확인한다. 표준영상에 적용해 본 결과, 워터마크가 삽입된 영상의 PSNR은 93.2dB로 우수한 화질을 얻을 수 있었으며 JPEG 손실 압축에서는 78.1% 이상의 워터마크 복원률을 얻을 수 있었고 영상변형 및 임펄스 잡음하에서도 효과적인 워터마크 복원 능력을 보였다.

The error performance of M-ary differential phase shift keying (MDPSK) through m-distribution fading channel in hybrid direct sequence/slow frequency hopped spread spectrum multiple access (DS/SFH-SSMA) systems has been evaluated, and also the error probability has been evaluate when adopting diversity technique and coding technique. From the results, we know that the error performance more deteriorates as depth of fading becomes deeper. In Rayleigh fading environment (m=1), increasing of the number of frequency hopping (q) reduces the effect of multiple access interference, because it decreases the probability a hit. When q is much larger than the number of user (K), the probability of error in high E/N region is dominated by the multipath interference while the multiple access interference is negligible. In lower E/N region, the probability of error is independent of q because the effect of gaussian noise becomes dominat.
