High power amplifier (HPA), which is used in transmitter of wireless communication systems, usually works in near saturation point in order to achieve maximum efficiency. In this region, HPA can introduce undesirable nonlinear effects. In this paper, we present a polynomial modeling method for efficient techniques to compensate for nonlinear distortion introduced by nonlinear HPA. Proposed polynomial predistorter inverses actual amplifier. Namely, we derive polynomials of amplifiers from analytical method and the electrical parameters in the data sheet of an actual amplifier and then can derive polynomial predistorter by inversing them. It is an effective and a simple method to compensate nonlinear distortion. SSPA(Solid-state power amplifier) is considered. We also analyze the effects of predistortion on the SER performance of communication system with 16-QAM modulation format. The results have shown the efficiency of this model.

There are two ways of conventional thermal distortion analysis. One is the thermal elasto-plastic analysis and the other is the equivalent forces method based on inherent strain. The former needs exorbitant analysis time, while the latter cannot obtain results of stress field and it needs much time consumption with loads modeling on curved plates. Such faults in two methods have made difficulties in thermal distortion analysis of a large structure like ship hull. In order to solve them, new kind of thermal distortion analysis method was developed. We devised that the inherent strains was used as direct input factors in forms of boundary conditions. It was embodied by using thermal expansion coefficient in commercial code. We used the pre-calculated inherent strain as thermal expansion coefficient, and endowed nodes with imaginary temperatures. This method was already adopted at hull block welding distortion analysis which was considered as impossible, and gave productive results such as reduction of work time in the dry dock.

The distortion effect of electrical response for two-dimensional (2-D) DC resistivity method was verified in terms of 2-D inversion result of synthetic data obtained by three-dimensional (3-D) modeling, which is frequently applied to assess the safety of center core-type fill dam structure. The distortion effect is due to 2-D interpretation for 3-D structure. By the modeling analysis, we found that the water level is correctly described in the resistivity section around the middle part rather than each end side of the embankment due to the 3-D terrain effect, when the material of the embankment is assumed as horizontally uniform. And when we set the slope of outer rock fill part as uniform. the sharper the slope of the center core is, the more similar the resistivity section reflects. On the other hand, when the slope of the rock fill is steep, the resistivity section shows the water level at lower position than the real one, and the 3-D distortion effect at the end side of the embankment was enhanced.

Conventional forward error correction (FEC) code rate decision schemes using analytical source coding distortion model and channel-induced distortion model are usually complex, and require the typical process of model parameter training which involves potentially high computational complexity and implementation cost. To avoid the complex modeling procedure, we propose a simple but accurate joint source-channel distortion model to estimate channel loss threshold set for optimal FEC code rate decision.

In this paper, an adaptive precompensator, which can reduce the distortion of a Wiener system effectively, is proposed. The previous techniques for adaptive precompensation, based on the Volterra series modeling to compensate the distortion of a nonlinear system, are not suitable for real-time implementation due to high computational burden and slow convergence burden and slow convergence rate. This paper presents an adaptive precompensation technique for the class of nonlinear subsystem, referred to as Wiener system. An adaptive algorithm for adjusting the parameters of a precompensator, structured by a hammerstein model, is derived using the stochastic gradient method. Also, an adaptive precompensatin technique which can effectively reduce nonlinear distortion in μ-law type of saturation characteristics is proposed. The validity of the proposed algorithm is confirmed through simulation by applying it to known Wiener systmes and a typical loudspeaker model.

Finite element analysis of cylinder heat/block compound under assembly, thermal and firing condition were performed. FE model including two cylinders with gasket, head bolts, liners and valve seats was used. FE modeling method and boundary conditions were introduced. Stress distribution and deformation of cylinder head and block under each loading condition were presented. Gasket pressure distribution and bore distortion level were predicted. Measured data of bore distortion was compared with the analysis results. The analysis result showed similar trends with the experimental data. High cycle fatigue analysis on the basis of this result has been performed in order to find the critical areas of the engine assembly.

In this paper, assumed mode method on Euler beam theory is employed and signal distortion is considered to obtain the performances of a MEMS accelerometer which are a sensitivity and measurable frequency range(MFR). Not only the sensitivities and MFR but also the variations of dynamic responses and natural frequencies of the MEMS accelerometer are investigated for several sets of beam properties such as length, width, thickness and Young's modulus. It is stated that the variations of beam properties significantly influence the performances of the MEMS accelerometer and the relationship between sensitivities and MFR is inversely proportional to each other.

In this paper, we present a 3-D object recognition system in which the 3-D Hough transform domain is employed to represent the 3-D objects. In object modeling step, the features for recognition are extracted from the CAD models of objects to be recognized. Since the approach is based on the CAD models, the accuracy and flexibility are greatly improved. In matching stage, the sensed image is compared with the stored model, which is assumed to yield a distortion (location and orientation) in the 3-D Hough transform domain. The high dimensional (6-D) parameter space, which defines the distortion, is decomposed into the low dimensional space for an efficient recognition. At first we decompose the distortion parameter into the rotation parameter and the translation parameter, and the rotation parameter is further decomposed into the viewing direction and the rotational angle. Since we use the 3-D Hough transform domain of the input images directly, the sensitivity to the noise and the high computational complexity could be significantly alleviated. The results show that the proposed 3-D object recognition system provides a satisfactory performance on the real range images.

Many internet portals provide maps with spatial information services. Recently, various images including aerial, satellite, street view, and photo-realistic 3D city models are provided as well as maps. This study suggested a method for geometric correction of the panoramic aerial images in the internet portal and 3D building modeling using information which is available in the internet. The key of this study is to obtain all necessary data easily from internet without restrictions. Practically, the ground control coordinates could be available from geo-referenced internet maps, and stereo pairs of the aerial images and close-range photographs for photo-realistic object modeling are provided by the internet service. However, the ground control points are not suitable for accurate mapping. RMSE of the plotting was about 9 meters and reduced upto 4 meters after coordinate transformation. The proposed methods would be applicable to various applications of photo-realistic object modeling which do not require high accuracy.

Doherty amplifier has more efficiency and distortion than general amplifier. These distortion classified amplitude distortion and phase distortion, memory effect distortion. This paper reports on an attempt to investigate, model and quantity the contribution of the electrical nonlinearity effects and the thermal memory effects to a doherty amplifier's distortion generation and suggests thermal memory effect compensator for pre-distorter. Also this paper reports on the development of an accurate dynamic expression of the instantaneous junction temperature as a function of the instantaneous dissipated power. The parameters of suggested model suppress thermal memory effects doherty amplifier with pre-distorter. Pre-distorter with electrothermal memory effect compensator for doherty amplifier enhanced ACLR performance about 22 dB than general doherty amplifier. Experiment results were mesured by 50W LDMOS Doherty amplifier and pre-distorter with electrothermal memory effect compensator was simulated by ADS.
