The advantages of using analogue optical networks for delivering radio signals from a central location to many remote antenna sites have been recognized. In a telecommnications context, radio signals may be for fixed radio access, cordless or mobile networks, but the same principles apply. By making use of the high bandwidth, low loss characteristics of optical fiber, all high frequency and signal processing functions can be performed centrally and signals can then be transported over the optical network directly at the carrier frequency. The remote sites then become very simple, requiring only optoelectronic conversion, filtering and linear amplification. This shifting of the complex functionality away from the remote site allow cheap, reliable, small and light-weight radio access points with low power consumption to be deployed. In this paper, we show that an electroabsorption modulation(EAM) may be used as a single component in such a radio access point, as a passive transceiver for small-sized cell(picocells).

This paper presents a pulse density modulation (PDM) technique with a high frequency link for a dual output DC-DC converter. The proposed scheme consists of a fixed frequency AC link and independent PDM controllers for the output regulation, which provides a simple structure and higher efficiency. The simulation and experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, we modeled digital M/W transmission channel by frequency non-selective fading channel and analyzed the power spectrum magnitude of digital M/W transmission systems adopting OFDM modulation scheme through simulation. From the simulation results, it was found that deep does not appear in the specified fixed bandwidth under the AWGN environment. Also, lower power spectrum magnitude was shown in frequency non-selective fading channel than that in AWGN channel. Futhermore, the power spectrum magnitude value became more lowered when carrier frequency and vehicle speed became higher.

The purpose of this study is to design and analyze the pre-modulation filter with the variable -3dB cutoff frequency and linear phase response for bandlimiting the allocation of radio frequency bandwidth in PCM/FM transmission system. For the implementation of this required filter, the digital FIR filter, DAC and variable 2nd order LPF have been constructed with the filter block which designed and analyzed by each stage in order to satisfy the attenuation characteristic requirement of the analog 7th order bessel filter. The paper also concerned the linear phase properties for the filter block. Especially we have carried out the linear phase simulation with real parts for variable 2nd order LPF and compared this simulation results with the one of the fixed bandwidth 2nd order bessel filter for validating the linear phase requirement.

This paper suggests an efficient method of protection ratio(PR) calculation and shows some results of point-to-point radio relay system for frequency coordination. The proposed PR can be expressed as a function of C/N of modulation scheme, noise-to-interference ratio(N/I), multiple interference allowance, fade margins of multi-Path and rain attenuation and net filter discrimination. And PR calculation is performed in view of fade margin, modulation scheme, distance, and interference for actual point-to-point radio relay frequency. According to results for 6.2 GHz, 64-QAM and 60 km at BER 10-6, fade margin and co-channel Protection ratio reveal 41.1dB and 74.9 dB, respectively The merit of presented method provides a systematic and easy calculation by means of PR correction factor related with various parameters and can apply the same concept to frequency coordination of millimeter wave radio relay system.

The defects on the metal surface. such as the ended circular pressed hole. the penetrated circular drilled hole, and the linear hollow lanes have been investigated by means of the microwave. In this experiment, frequency was set at 9.2GHz with 3kHz modulation, and the methods of reflection, transmission, fixed carrier frequency, and mod-demodulated technique have been used for investigating defects. The magnitudes of the microwave signals have been changed at the ended circular pressed hole and the penetrated circular drilled hole. The defect sizes that were estimated from the reflected microwave signals had the dimensions enlarged by twice the original size of the penetrated circular drilled hole and 2.5 times the original size of the ended circular pressed hole. The magnitudes of the reflected microwave signals from the linear hollow lane have increased with expansion of the width of the notch. In the linear hollow lane with the depth of 2.4mm, the reflected microwave signals versus the defect widths had a maximum value at the defect width of 50mm, and in the linear hollow lanes with the depths of 1.2mm and 0.45mm, the reflected microwave signals versus the defects widths had the maximum values each at the defect depths of 55mm.

A CubeSat platform has become a popular choice due to inexpensive commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components and low launch cost. However, it requires more power-efficient and higher-data rate downlink capability for space applications related to remote sensing. In addition, the platform is limited by the size, weight and power (SWaP) constraints as well as the regulatory issue of licensing the radio frequency (RF) spectrum. The requirements and limitations have put optical communications on promising alternatives to RF communications for a CubeSat platform, owing to the power efficiency and high data rate as well as the license free spectrum. In this study, we analyzed the performance of optical downlink communications compatible with CubeSat platforms in terms of data rate, bit error rate (BER) and outage probability. Mathematical models of BER and outage probability were derived based on not only the log-normal model of atmospheric turbulence but also a transmitter with a finite extinction ratio. Given the fixed slot width, the optimal guard time and modulation orders were chosen to achieve the target data rate. And the two performance metrics, BER and outage data rate, were analyzed and discussed with respect to beam divergence angle, scintillation index and zenith angle.

In this development, By using the phase array antenna, the beam around was electronically revolved and the marine fixed type radar of which the detection is possible was made and the check around was tested. There are the risk of the corrosion because of the abrasion of the axis of rotation and salinity with the way that the existing marine pulse radar detects the check by using the mechanical rotation. Besides, the maintenance cost of the magnetron gets to happen by using the detection signal. In this development, The fixed type radar of the low output which revolves electronically around the beam by using the radar signal processing method of the phase array antenna using the phase shifter and FMCW(Frequency Modulation Continuous Wave) method was made. And by using the fixed type radar, the check detection test was conducted.

A new high performance and low cost unified power system is proposed through investigating conventional Power-Integrated Drive(PID) system and Power-Separated Drive(PSD) system applied to LCD TV. Since the proposed system consists of two stage, namely power and inverter stage it features high efficiency and cost effectiveness. To satisfy the safety standard of the High voltage transformer, 1:1 transformer is employed between inverter and high voltage transformer. Moreover, to ensure the Zero Voltage Switching(ZVS) of all power switches and the Pulse Count Modulation(PCM) method is employed, which controls the number of pulse at the fixed frequency and fixed duty cycle. Therefore, it features high efficiency, improved heat generation, cost effectiveness and good EMI performance including no additional current balancing coil. To confirm the validity of proposed system, comparison of conventional system, verification of experimental results are presented.
