One of the major factors that effect sensor performance is analog noise that added in a sensor signal such as voltage. In multi-axis force sensors, error sources may be classified mainly in two groups. One is structural error due to inaccuracy of sensor body. The other error source is noise signals existing in the sensed information. This paper presents a brief review about the principle of multi-axis force sensors, and then proposes a method that can reduce the effect of noise signal to sensor performance. The method is to convert analog voltage signal to digital numbers near sensor body and then to read these digital signals and conduct signal processing in the computer. By this way, we can eliminate a bad effect of electromagnetic wave emitted from computer and of 60 Hz noise emitted from AC source. The proposed method is investigated through experimental demonstration. The experimental results show that it improves S/N ratio of the sensor about 40 times in our experimental setup.

최근 들어 디지털 이동통신 시스템은 음성 통신 뿐만 아니라 멀티미디어 통신에도 그 적용범위를 확장시키고 있다. 그러나 이러한 시스템에서 한정된 채널 대역폭의 사용은 멀티미디어 정보의 대용량성을 고려할 때, 그 적용범위를 심각하게 축소시키는 가장 큰 제한요소이다. 일반적인 통신 시스템의 소스 부호화기는 채널 잡음을 고려하지 않고 설계되며, 채널 부호화기는 소스 신호의 특성과 무관하게 채널 환경의 극복에만 중점을 두고 설계된다. 그러나 대역폭 제한적인 통신 환경에서 보다 효율적인 대역폭 사용을 위해서는 채널 환경에 따라 소스 부호율과 채널 부호율을 가변적으로 운용하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 영상을 부대역 부호화하여 각 부대역 영상이 원래의 영상 재구성에 기여하는 중요도에 따라 한정된 채널 자원을 최적으로 할당하는 공동 소스/채널 부호화(Joint Source-channel Coding)에 관하여 연구하였다. 부대역 영상의 소스 부호화로는 DPCM과 PCM을 사용하였고, 채널 부호화는 TCM 부호화기를 사용하였으며 상이오류보호(Unequal Error Protection)를 위해 3가지 채널 부호율에 따라 각각 TCQPSK, TC8PSK, TC16PSK 변조방식을 사용하였다. 모의실험에 사용된 채널 환경은 랜덤잡음 환경과 이동수신의 경우에 발생하는 Rayleigh 페이딩 환경을 고려하였으며, 각 환경에서의 채널 SNR에 따라 동일오류보호(Equal Error Protection) 시스템과 상이오류보호(Unequal Error Protection) 시스템의 성능을 비교하였다.

Time synchronization system using dual frequency bands is designed and the error sources are analyzed for alternative synchronized-pseudolite navigation system (S-PNS) which aims at military application. To resolve near/far problem, dual frequency band operation is proposed instead of pulsing transmission which degrades level of reception. In dual frequency operation H/W delay should be considered to eliminate errors caused by inter-frequency bias (IFB) difference between the receivers of the pseudolites and users. When time synchronization is performed across the sea, multipath error is occurred severely since the elevation angle between pseudolites is low so total reflection can be happened. To investigate the difference of multipath effects according to location, pseudolites are set up coastal area and land area and performances are compared. The error source related with tropospheric delay is becoming dominant source as the coverage of the PNS is broadening. The tropospheric delay is measured by master pseudolite receiver directly using own pseudorange and slave pseudorange. Flight test is performed near coastal area using S-PNS equipped with developed time synchronization system and test results are also presented.

This paper shows that the support growth of an optimum (minimum mean square-error) scalar quantizer for a Laplacian density is logarithmic with the number of quantization points. Specifically, it is shown that, for a unit-variance Laplacian density, the ratio of the support-determining threshold of an optimum quantizer to $\frac 3{\sqrt{2}}1n\frac N 2$ converges to 1, as the number of quantization points grows. Also derived is a limiting upper bound that says that the optimum support cannot exceed the logarithmic growth by more than a constant. These results confirm the logarithmic growth of the optimum support that has previously been derived heuristically.

In this paper, we mathematically investigate a downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system for short-packet communications (SPC) in which the near users are used as full-duplex (FD) relays to forward intended signals from the source to a far user. In addition, partial relay selection is employed to enhance the performance of the FD relays under the impact of imperfect interference cancellation. At the far user, selection combining (SC) or maximal ratio combining (MRC) is employed to combine the signals received from the source and the selected FD relay. The analytical expressions for the average block error rate (BLER) of two users over flat Rayleigh fading channels are derived. Furthermore, closed-form asymptotic expressions of the average BLERs at the near and far users in high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regimes are obtained. The numerical results show that the analytical BLERs of the near user and far user closely match the simulation results.

Cooperative networks eliminate shadow area using relay and enhance communication performance by creating virtual multi input multi output (MIMO) system. In this paper, we analyze the performance of cooperative networks which use coherent modulation scheme in source-relay nodes and differential modulation scheme in relay-destination nodes depending on the relay location. We consider the performance analysis of systems with and without the direct transmission between source and destination node where the direct transmission adopts differential modulation scheme. In addition, the performance of the system with fully differential modulation scheme is compared with the system using partially differential modulation scheme. The performance of system is based on the symbol error rate between source and destination node.

For location based service and context awareness services, accurate indoor positioning technology is essential. The TDOA method that uses the range difference between signal source and receivers for estimating the location of the signal source, has estimation error due to measurement error. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to select the real root among calculated roots using the range difference information, and the estimated position of the signal source shows good accuracy compared to the existing method.

Several prospecting methods have been used to detect deep seated small tunnel in Korea. Tunnel interpretation of seismic method has been performed mainly by wave traveltime inversion method. But it often gives inacurate solution for the exact tunnel position because of the short distance between two measuring boreholes and picking errors of first arrivals. In this study, "error tomogram" was proposed to detect tunnel position and applied to theoretical and field dat using multi-source amplitude data.

Rapid development of information technology makes our environment become smarter and massive high performance computers are providing powerful computing for that. Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) as a typical high performance component is being widely used for both graphics and general-purpose applications. Although it can greatly improve computing power, it also delivers significant power consumption and need sufficient power supplies. To make high performance computing more sustainable, the important step is to measure it. Current power technologies for GPU have some drawbacks, such as they are not applicable for power estimation at the early stage. In this article, we present a novel power technology to correlate power consumption and the characteristics at the programmer perspective, and then to estimate power consumption of source program without prerunning. We conduct experiments on Nvidia's GT740 platform; the results show that our power model is more accurately than regression model and has an average error of 2.34% and the maximum error of 9.65%.

Air-cooling method is adopted on the basis of the requirements for the thermal stability and convenient field use of an electrical source transmitter. The power losses of the transmitter are determined after calculating the losses of the alternating current (AC)-direct current (DC) power supply, the constant-current circuit, and the output circuit. According to the analysis of the characteristics of a heat sink with striped fins and a fan, the engineering calculation expression of the Nusselt number and the design process for air-cooled dissipation are proposed. Experimental results verify that the error between calculated and measured values of the transmitter losses is 12.2%, which meets the error design requirements of less than 25%. Steady-state average temperature rise of the heat sink of the AC-DC power supply is $22^{\circ}C$, which meets the design requirements of a temperature rise between $20^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. The transmitter has favorable thermal stability with 40 kW output power.
