It is extremely necessary to use such a secure way to transmit information to a train, which is needed for operating a train. In our system, The information including the allowable velocity of the train, train existence in current area, and other data necessary for operating train, is transmitted in the form of FM signal. Received by the receiver located on train, the signal is filtered, demodulated and analyzed to extract the original information. The analysis of the demodulated signal is done through FFT algorithm using sliding slot. These all are processed digitally by hardware which is implemented by 32bit DSP. The experiments show the validity of the algorithm we presented.

In this paper, for the microwave level meter based on the FM-CW radar, we analyze the spectrum correlation of beat signals and propose a measurement algorithm using the theory. For industrial applications, level meters must have high precision, which requires a good linearity of VCO. But, in practice, it is very complicated or very expensive to make VCO linear enough to be acceptable in the industrial field. We propose a measurement algorithm using the fact that there exists a peak in the spectrum correlation of beat signals when range difference is sufficiently small. This makes it possible to determine the range difference in a precise manner even using a practical VCO. We present some experimental results to show the validity of this algorithm.

It is well known that the Capon algorithm offers better resolution compared to that of the FM (Fourier method) algorithm by minimizing the total output power while maintaining a constant gain in the look direction. Unfortunately, the DoA (Direction of Arrival) estimation performance of the Capon algorithm is drastically degraded when the SNR of received signal is low and thus, it cannot distinguish among signal sources which have similar incidence angles. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme enhancing the resolution of the Capon algorithm by ing all rows except the first row of an inverse covariance matrix.

We have designed the system that measure one channel ECG by two electrode and extract real-time EDR with more related resipiration and comportable to subject by using conductive textile. On the assumption that relation between RL electrode and potential measurement electrode is coupled with RC connected model, we designed RL drive output to feedback two electrode for reduction of common mode signal. The conductive textile which was used for two ECG electrode was offered more comfort during night sleep in bed than any other method using attachments. In the method of single-lead EDR, R wave point or QRS interval area could be used for EDR estimation in traditional method, it is, so to speak, the amplitude modulation(AM) method for EDR. Alternatively, R-R interval could be used for frequency modulation(FM) method based on Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia(RSA). For evaluation of performance on AM EDR and FM EDR from 14 subject, ECG lead III was measured. Each EDR was compared with both temperature around nose(direct measurement of respiration) and respiration signal from thoracic belt(indirect measurement of respiration) on mean squared error(MSE), cross correlation(Xcorr), and Coherence. The upsampling interpolation technique of multirate signal processing is applied to interpolating data instead of cubic spline interpolation. As a result, we showed the real-time EDR extraction processing to be implemented at micro-controller.

In this paper, human heartbeat detection using signal reflected from the antenna which is varied reflection coefficient by near field variation of the antenna. For detection reflected signal from antenna, 20 dB directional coupler is used because of not affecting transmitting signal. Variance of reflection coefficient of dipole antenna is about 0.07 dB which is too small the distinction between heartbeat and noise. Sensitivity increasing method is applied and heartbeat is clearly detected. Due to phase and magnitude errors come from discrete value components, antenna is located some points in experiments ro find optimum sensitivity position. And providing verification of using communication signal, heartbeat detection when frequency modulated signal which have 4 MHz bandwidth is applied.

In this paper, we realized a transceiver system for short distance communication with a commercial RF module working in ISM band. Also we measured system performance by transmitting baseband data in a building and then we compared the demodulated data bits with stored data bits in a PC connected with demodulator. The RF module In the experiments works only in the bandwidth of 424MHz-429MHz. The signal level degrades as the distance between transmitter and receiver increases. We measured the signal level and bit error and present the measured results with various locations in the building. And it is concluded that the measured data may be used in the design of short distance network in a building.

In this paper, we have presented an improved design of the microwave level meter based on the principle of FM-CW radar. First, we have analyzed the effect of VCO nonlinearity on the spectral broadening of the beat signal, and presented a new type of design theory to linearize VCO tuning curve adopting FFT algorithm. Simulation results for a VCO having the linearity of 25% have been presented, which show the usefulness of the design algorithm.

With the development of digital signal processor(DSP), digital pulse compressor (DPC) is commonly used in radar systems. A DPC is implemented by using finite impulse response(FIR) filter algorithm in time domain or fast Fourier transform(FFT) algorithm in frequency domain. This paper compares the computation complexity tot these two methods and calculates boundary Fm filter taps that determine which of the two methods is better based on computation amount. Also, it shows that the boundary FIR filter taps for DSP, ADSP21060, and those for computation complexity have similar characteristic.

This paper describes an RF module for 2.4GHz wireless audio/video transmission. The pre-processed baseband input signals are FM-modulated using a VCO and then transmitted through an antenna after RF filtering. The designed circuits are implemented using a Teflon board of which the size is 52mm${\times}$62mm. The measured maximum output signal levels are around -3dBm and the harmonics are less than -450dBc. The manufactured module consumes 130mA from a 8V supply.
