In this paper, a Multi-Band Ku-band down converter was designed for reception of multi-band digital satellite broadcasting. The Multi-band low-nose down converter was designed to form four local oscillator frequencies (9.75, 10, 10.75 and 11.3GHz) representing a low phase noise due to VCO-PLL with respect to input signals of 10.7 to 12.75GHz and 3-stage low noise amplifier circuit by broadband noise matching, and to select an one band of intermediate frequency (IF) channels by digital control. The developed low-noise downconverter exhibited the full conversion gain of 64dB, and the noise figure of low-noise amplifier was 0.7dB, the P1dB of output signal 15dBm, and the phase noise -73dBc@100Hz at the band 1 carrier frequency of 9.75GHz. The low noise block downconverter (LNB) for receiving four-band digital satellite broadcasting designed in this paper can be used for satellite broadcasting of vessels navigating international waters.

In this study, we propose a method of digital control to drive the vibrating gyroscope using electromagnetic-force. The gyroscope requires accurate vibration control and signal processing for high performance. Conventional PLL based analog controller is not only difficult to manufacture but also weak to outer environment such as temperatures, air pressures and etc. But digital controller using DSP can consistently maintain the cylinder vibration and perform digital signal processing regardless of disturbance. DSP's PWM function was utilized to control the vibration, and rotation-detecting algorithm was developed. Finally, the controller was verified by simulation and experiment using rotation-rate table.

In this paper, we present a phase coherent all-digital transceiver for underwater acoustic communication, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater environments. It is designed in the digital domain except for transducers and amplifiers and implemented by using a multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) system. For phase coherent reception, conventional systems employed phase-locked loop (PLL) and delay-locked loop (DLL) for synchronization, but this paper suggests a frame synchronization scheme based on the quadrature receiver structure without using phase information. We show experimental results in the underwater anechoic basin at MOERI. The results show that the adaptive equalizer compensates frame synchronization error and the correction capability is dependent on the length of equalizer.

A digital technique is adopted to calibrate the current mismatch of the charge pump (CP) in phase-locked loops. A 2 GHz charge pump PLL (CPPLL) is used to justify the proposed calibration technique. The proposed digital calibration technique is implemented simply using a counter. The proposed calibration technique reduces the calibration time by up to a maximum of 50% compared other with techniques. Also by using a dual-mode CP, good current matching characteristics can be achieved to compensate $0.5{\mu}A$ current mismatch in CP. It was designed in a standard $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The maximum calibration time is $33.6{\mu}s$ and the average power is 18.38mW with 1.5V power supply and effective area is $0.1804mm^2$.

SONY corporation preoccupies $80\%$ of a market of the CCD used in a CCTV system. The CCD of SONY have high duality which can not follow the progress of capability. But there are some problems which differ the clock frequency used in CCD from the frequency used in common video encoder. To get the result by using common video encoder, the system needs a scaler that could adjust image size and PLL that synchronizes CCD's with encoder's clock So, this paper proposes the video encoder that is activated at equal clock used in CCD without scaler and PLL. The encoder converts ITU-R BT.601 4:2:2 or ITU-R BT.656 inputs from various video sources into NTSC or PAL signals in CVBS. Due to variable clock, property of filters used in the encoder is automatically changed by clock and filters adopt multiplier-free structures to reduce hardware complexity. The hardware bit width of programmable digital filters for luminance and chrominance signals, along with other operating blocks, are carefully determined to produce hish-quality digital video signals of ${\pm}1$ LSB error or less. The proposed encoder is experimentally demonstrated by using the Altera Stratix EP1S80B953C6ES device.

This paper is study on performance analysis of modulator using direct digital frequency synthesizer of Initial Clock Accumulating Method. It has been generally used for PLL or digital frequency synthesizing method to be synthesizd randomly chosen frequency state. In order to improve disadvantage of two methods, we constructed modulator system using DDFS of Initial Clock Accumulating Method. We also confirmed the coherence frequency hopping state and possibility of phase control. The results obtained from the experiments are as follows; First, the synthesized output frequency is proportional to the sampling frequency, according to index, K. Second, the difference of the gain between the basic frequency and the harmonic frequencies was more than 50 [dB], that is, this means facts that is reduced the harmonic frequency factor. Third, coherence frequency hopping state is confirmed by PN code sequence. Here, we confirmed the proposed method cut switching time, this verify facts that is the best characteristic of the frequency hopping. We also verified the fact that the phase varies as the adder is operated set or reset.

A new digital clock level translator has been designed in order to produce a clock source of the internal logic circuits. The translator output has 50% duty ratio from small sinusoidal input such as TCXO which oscillates itself in poratable components. The circuit consists of positive and negative comparators, RS latch, charge pump, and reference vol- tage generator. It detects pulse width of the output waveform and feedbacks the control signal to the input com-parator. It detects pulse width of the output waveform and feedbacks the control signal to the input com-parator reference, producing output waveform with valid 50% duty ratio of the digital signal level. The designed level translator can be used as a sampling clock source of ADC, PLL and the colck source of the clock synthesizer. The circuit wasdesigned in a 0.8.mu.m analog CMOS technology with double metal, double poly, and BSIM3 circuit simulation model. From our experimental results, a stable operating characteristics of 50 +3% duty ratio was obtained from the sinusoidal input wave of 370 mV.

The frequency synthesizer for Fast Frequency Hopping System musy be capable of a fast tuning with a small step frequency over wide band. The most conventional frequency synthesizer that uses the phase locked loop (PLL) enables the wide band problem but have a poor side of the low resolution and the transient response. In this paper, we have discussed the experimental results of a direct digital frequency synthesizer which can be applicable to the Fast Frequency Hopping System, using digital-to-analoq (D/A)conversion techniques. With this system we can find the merits of a fine resolution and the possibility of a fast tuning leaving the problems of transent frequency.
