This research is concerned with the development of an Internet-based robot system, which is insensitive to the unpredictable internet time delay. For this purpose, a simple mobile robot system that moves in response to the user s direct control on the internet has been developed. The time delay in data transmission is an important problem for the construction of this kind of system. Therefore, the PPS (Position Prediction Simulator) is suggested and implemented to compensate for the time delay problem of the internet. The simulation and experimental results show that the distance error can be reduced using the developed PPS.

This paper proposes the channel-access protocol suitable to a very high speed photonic WDM network with star configuration, which can provide a high channel utilization and insensitivity to the propagation delay. The proposed protocol employs a control channel and a simple status table to deal with the propagation delay which has been a major limiting factor in the performance of the very high speed optical communication networks. The control channel transmits control information in order to reserve access on data channels, and each node constitutes a status table after the reception of control pckets which holds information about the availbility of destination node and data channel. The proposed protocol is insensitive to the propagation delay time by removing necessity of the retransmission and by allowing parallel transmission of control packet and data packets. It is proved in analysis and discrete event simulation that the proposed protocol is superior in throughput and mean delay, especially at the high load conditions compared to the existing high speed channel-access protocols.

To address the wire complexity problem in large-scale globally asynchronous, locally synchronous systems, a current-mode ternary encoding scheme was devised for a two-phase asynchronous protocol. However, for data transmission through a very long wire, few studies have been conducted on reducing the long propagation delay in current-mode circuits. Hence, this paper proposes a current steering logic (CSL) that is able to minimize the long delay for the devised current-mode ternary encoding scheme. The CSL creates pulse signals that charge or discharge the output signal in advance for a short period of time, and as a result, helps prevent a slack in the current signals. The encoder and decoder circuits employing the CSL are implemented using $0.25-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The results of an HSPICE simulation show that the normal and optimal mode operations of the CSL achieve a delay reduction of 11.8% and 28.1%, respectively, when compared to the original scheme for a 10-mm wire. They also reduce the power-delay product by 9.6% and 22.5%, respectively, at a data rate of 100 Mb/s for the same wire length.

This paper presented a hybrid ternary encoding scheme using 3-valued logic. It can adapt to the delay-insensitive(DI) model. We designed an asynchronous wrapper for the hybrid ternary encoding scheme to communicate with various asynchronous encoding schemes. It reduced about 50% of transmission lines and power consumption compared with the conventional 1-of-4 and ternary encoding scheme. The proposed wrappers were designed and simulated using the $0.18-{\mu}m$ standard CMOS technology. As a result, the asynchronous wrapper operated over 2 GHz communicating with a system bus. Moreover, the power dissipation of the system bus adapted the hybrid ternary encoding logic decreases 65%, 43%, and 36% of the dual-rail, 1-of-4, and ternary encoding scheme, respectively. The proposed data encoding scheme and the wrapper circuit can be useful for asynchronous high-speed and low-power asynchronous interface.

As VLSI technology scales to nano-meter order, relatively increasing global wire-delay has added complexity to system design. Global wire-delay could be reduced by inserting pipeline-elements onto wire but it should be coupled with LIP(Latency Intensive Protocol) to have correct system timing. This combination however, drops the throughput although it ensures system functionality. In this paper, we propose a computation method useful for minimizing throughput deterioration when pipeline-elements are inserted to reduce global wire-delay. We apply this method while placing blocks in the floorplanning stage. When the necessary for this computation is reflected on the floorplanning cost function, the throughput increases by 16.97% on the average when compared with the floorplanning that uses the conventional heuristic throughput-evaluation-method.

본 논문은 DI(delay insensitive) 지연 모델을 적용한 비동기 회로의 데이터 전송시 발생되는 신호 천이의 수를 감소시키기 위한 새로운 데이터 인코딩 기법과 신호 천이 방법을 제시한다. DI 지연 모델을 적용한 비동기 시스템은 배선 지연에 관계없이 동작이 필요한 모듈에만 데이터와 핸드쉐이크를 위한 이벤트 신호를 전송하는 장점을 갖는다. 그러나 신호의 유효성과 동작 완료 검출을 위해 듀얼레일 데이터 인코딩이 필요하며 이는 비동기 회로의 크기를 증가시키고 이로 인해 전력 소비가 증가한다. 전력 소비를 감소시키기 위해 신호 천이의 수를 줄여야 하며, 본 논문에서는 제안한 신호 천이 기법을 적용하여 실험적으로 약 21%의 전력 소비 감소 결과를 얻었다.

Blind equalization of transmission channel is important in communication areas and signal processing applications because it does not need training sequence, nor does it require a priori channel information. Recently, Tong et al. proposed solutions for this problem exploit the diversity induced by antenna array or time oversampling, leading to the second order statistics techniques, fur example, subspace method, prediction error method, and so on. The linear prediction error method is perhaps the most attractive in practice due to the insensitive to blind equalizer length mismatch as well as for its simple adaptive filter implementation. Unfortunately, the previous one-step prediction error method is known to be limited in arbitrary delay. In this paper, we induce the optimal delay, and propose the adaptive blind equalizer with multi-step linear prediction using RLS-type algorithm. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the proposed algorithm and to compare it with existing algorithms.

With the rapid growth of the Internet, the Internet-based robot has been realized by connecting off-line robot to the Internet. However, because the Internet is often irregular and unreliable, the varying time delay in data transmission is a significant problem for the construction of the Internet-based robot system. Thus, this paper is concerned with the development of an Internet-based robot system, which is insensitive to the Internet time delay. For this purpose, the PPS (Position Prediction Simulator) is suggested and implemented on the system. The PPS consists of two parts : the robot position prediction part and the projective virtual scene part. In the robot position prediction part, the robot position is predicted for more accurate operation of the mobile robot, based on the time at which the user's command reaches the robot system. The projective virtual scene part shows the 3D visual information of a remote site, which is obtained through image processing and position prediction. For the verification of this proposed PPS, the robot was moved to follow the planned path under the various network traffic conditions. The simulation and experimental results showed that the path error of the robot motion could be reduced using the developed PPS.
