One of key parameters on lightning protection system design of electric, information and communication system is grounding impedance. Earth impedance includes numerous information about earthing performance of grounding system. This paper suggests grounding impedance measuring device which is comprised of wideband current source, voltage and current measuring components. We used IQ Demodulation to measure more accurate phase difference of voltage and current. The range of frequency is up to 1 MHz that is IEEE defined as the range of lightning surge. We compared developed grounding impedance measuring device with existing one to test its performance, and we used grounding system while we implemented measurement and analysing by using fall of potential method IEEE Std.81 proposed.

In modern digital communication systems adapting high-order modulation and high performance channel code, log-likelihood ratios involving the repeated calculations of the logarithm of sum of exponential functions are necessary for demodulation and decoding. In this paper, the approximation methods called Min and MinC are applied to demodulation and decoding together and their complexity and joint performance are analyzed.

The FSK demodulation module is the circuit which detects the data being transmitted from reader by FSK method. It doesn't use the PLL, and has lower power consumption and easier integration than conventional FSK detector using the PLL. So in a smart card, it is suitable to apply. In this study, the FSK demodulation module of the low power smart card is designed and analyzed.

Usually vibration properties are obtained from frequency response functions or impulse response functions of a system. Since the contact type sensors can affect the characteristics of vibrating systems, the non-contact type sensors such as laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) are being widely used. Currently researches are being carried out in terms of modal analysis using a scanning vibrometer. For the continuous scan; the Chebyshev demodulation (or polynomial) is apparently suggested to extract the mode shapes. With single frequency sinusoidal excitation, this approach is well fitted. In this research, the Chebyshev demodulation technique has been applied to the impact excitation case. The vibration of the tested structure is modeled using impulse response functions. The technique is also adopted to the random excitation case. In order to verify the technique, a simply supported beam was chosen as the test rig. The calculation modules are developed by using MATLAB$\^$(R)/ in WindowsNT$\^$(R)/ environment.

In this paper, we present a demodulation structure suitable for a reader baseband receiver in a passive radio frequency identification (RFID) environment. In a passive RFID configuration, an undesirable DC-offset phenomenon may appear in the baseband of the reader receiver, which can severely degrade the performance of the extraction of valid information from the received tag signal. To eliminate this DC-offset phenomenon, the primary feature of the proposed demodulation structures for the received FM0 and Miller subcarrier signals is to reconstruct the signal corrupted by the DC-offset phenomenon by creating peak signals from the corrupted signal. It is shown that the proposed method can successfully detect valid data, even when the received baseband signal is distorted by the DC-offset phenomenon.

As the demand for high-speed and wirelesstransmission of information is rapidly increasing, spectrally efficient digiral radio modulation and demodulation scheme is preferred. In this paper, we have studied the signal generation, demodulation and performance evaluation of spectrally efficient QAM signals in a wireless channel environment. We propose differential modulation and demodulation scheme for QAM in rayleigh fading channel. First, formulas for theerror probability of proposed QAM scheme are derived over QWGN channel. Second, we evaluate the performance of the proposed QAM scheme in rayleigh fading environment through computer simulation, and confirm that it shows much better performance compared to that of conventional QAM scheme.

In this paper, we compare the performance of noncoherent DS-CDMA system where orthogonal code is used for identifying the user to reduce multiple access interference or for M-ary orthogonal signaling to improve the performance of demodulation. The effects of M-ary orthogonal signaling on the noncoherent demodulation is investigated and compared with one of coherent demodulation. The analysis results show that M-ary orthogonal signaling gives better performance than quasi-synchronous orthogonal scheme for a moderate number of users when the processing gain is 128 over AWGN channel. In addition, when the number of user is 41, M=64 orthogonal signaling has a similar performance to the quasi-synchronous orthogonal scheme at the BER of 10-2 when the time misalignment between channels is within 1/2 chip and M=256 orthogonal signaling always outperforms the quasi-synchronous orthogonal scheme. Start after striking space key 2 times.

A novel fiber-optic sensor system is suggested in which fiber Bragg grating sensors are demodulated by a wavelength-sweeping fiber laser source and a spectrometer. The spectrometer consists of a diffraction grating and a 512-pixel photo-diode array. The reflected Bragg wavelength information is transformed into spatial intensity distribution on the photo-diode array. The peak locations linearly correspond to the Bragg wavelengths, regardless of the nonlinearities in the wavelength tuning mechanism of the fiber laser. The high power density of the fiber laser enables obtaining high signal-to-noise ratio outputs. The improved demodulation characteristics were experimentally demonstrated with a fiber Bragg grating sensor array with 5 gratings. The sensor outputs were in much more linear fashion compared with the conventional tunable band-pass filter demodulation. Also it showed advantages in signal processing, due to the high level of photo-diode array signals, over the broadband light source system, especially in measurement of fast varying dynamic physical quantities.

There are two major factors of degrading the performance in the forward link of DS/CDMA systems. One is the multiple access interference (MAI) caused by using the same frequency bands simultaneously and the other is the multipath lading due to multipath propagation. PN codes which have minimum cross correlation properties among spread spectrum codes are necessary to reduce the MAI. In the conventional IS-95A system, the PN sequence has the period of $2^{15}$ and is of the length of 64 chips for spreading each data. In this case, since the length of PN code per bit is very short compared to the period of the PN code, the performance of the conventional system is not satisfied in view of suppressing the multipath interference. However, the correlation property of the PN codes at the demodulation can be improved by increasing the interval of Integration at the demodulation. This paper proposes a demodulation method to reduce the cross correlation among PN codes. The performance of the proposed demodulation method is investigated through computer simulations. We used multipath Ray lading channel and AWGN channel in the simulation. Our simulation results show the improved performance of $0.25{\sim}0.5dB$ SNR in a given BER compared to the conventional demodulation scheme.

A new Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) wavelength demodulation scheme is studied in the paper, which consists of an improved de-noising method and Gaussian fitting peak searching algorithm. The improved translational invariant wavelet without threshold adjust factor is proposed to get a better de-noising performance for FBG sensor signal and overcome the drawbacks of soft or hard threshold wavelets. In order to get a high wavelength demodulation precision of FBG sensor signal, this de-noising method is designed to combine with Gaussian fitting peak searching algorithm. The simulation results show that the wavelength maximum measurement error is lower than 1pm, and can get a much higher accuracy.
