LMC X-4 is an eclipsing high-mass X-ray binary exhibiting a superorbital modulation with a period of ~ 30:5 days. We present a detailed study of the variations of the superorbital modulation period with a time baseline of ~ 18 years. The period determined in the light curve collected by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) significantly deviates from that observed by the All Sky Monitor (ASM) onboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). Using the data collected by RXTE/ASM, MAXI, and the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) onboard Swift, we found a significant period derivative, $\dot{P}=(2.08{\pm}0.12){\times}10^{-5}$. Furthermore, the O{C residual shows complex short-term variations indicating that the superorbital modulation of LMC X-4 exhibits complicated unstable behaviors. In addition, we used archive data collected by the Proportional Counter Array (PCA) on RXTE to estimate the orbital and spin parameters. The detected pulse frequencies obtained in small time segments were fitted with a circular orbital Doppler shift model. In addition to orbital parameters and spin frequency for each observation, we found a spin frequency derivative of $\dot{v}=(6.482{\pm}0.011){\times}10^{-13}Hz{\cdot}s^{-1}$. More precise orbital and spin parameters will be evaluated by the pulse arrival time delay technique in the future.

To establish a network environment where multiple wireless personal area networks(WPAN) are simultaneously operating in the same area, we need to consider the effects of inter-device interference. The extent of interference effect from neighboring frequency channel interferer may be different depending on the modulation types that are used for constructing the wireless network. If a modulation scheme with high spectral side lobes is used, the spatial separation between devices plays a major role in determining the amount of interference from neighboring frequency channel interferer. In this paper, we investigate the effect of inter-device interference in the overlapped raised cosine offset quadrature-quadrature phase shift keying (ORC-$OQ^2PSK$) modulation based WPAN. By comparing the results with those of GFSK modulation based WPAN, we verify the feasibility of ORC-$OQ^2PSK$ based WPAN.

The modulation transfer function (MTF) is calculated to analyze the resolution of the spatial frequency of the image acquired from the x-ray imaging system. In general, the response function of the detector acquires a line spread function (LSF) using a slit-camera, and derives a modulation transfer function through a Fourier transform. Because of the fact that the x-ray must always be incident on the center of the slit-camera, the tilt of the detector and slit-camera caused by the experimenter will affect the detector performance. In addition, if the tilt increases, the performance evaluation of the x-ray image system will be problematic. In this study, we analyzed the experimental and analytical models in the modulation transfer function, ie, the Fourier domain, based on the experimental error and analyzed the effect on the spatial frequency. Furthermore, performance evaluation is being carried out for various x-ray imaging systems, and experimental errors are indispensable, and the extent to which they can be tolerated should be reviewed.

The error probability for coherent frequency-hopped spread-spectrum multiple-access communications is computed. We employ PSK as a modulation scheme. The channel capacity is performance measure and the minimum bit signal-to-noise ratio for reliable communications is obtained.

The grid voltage of commercial utility power source hi Japan and USA is 100rms, but in China and European countries, it is 200rms. In recent years, In Japan 200Vrms out putted single phase three wire system begins to be used for high power applications. In 100Vrms utility AC power applications and systems, an active voltage clamped quasi-resonant Inverter circuit topology using IGBTs has been effectively used so far for the consumer microwave oven. In this paper, presented is a half bridge type voltage-clamped high-frequency Inverter type AC-DC converter using which is designed for consumer magnetron drive used as the consumer microwave oven in 200V utility AC power system. This zero voltage soft switching Inverter can use the same power rated switching semiconductor devices and three-winding high frequency transformer as those of the active voltage clamped quasi-resonant Inverter using the IGBTs that has already been used for 100V utility AC power source. The operating performances of the voltage source single ended push pull type Inverter are evaluated and discussed for consumer microwave oven. The harmonic line current components In the utility AC power side of the AC-DC power converter operating at ZVS­PWM strategy reduced and improved on the basis of sine wave like pulse frequency modulation and sine wave like pulse width modulation for the utility AC voltage source.

This paper proposes a new Pulse Frequency Modulation(PFM)-Series Boost Capacitor(SBC) full bridge DC/DC Converter which features a high efficiency and high power density. The proposed converter controls the output voltage by varying the voltage across the series boost capacitor according to switching frequency and has no freewheeling period due to 50% fixed duty operation. As a result, its conduction loss is lower than that of the conventional phase shift full bridge converter. Moreover, ZVS of all power switches can be ensured along wide load ranges and output current ripple is very small. Therefore, it has very desirable merits such as a small output inductor, high efficiency, and improved heat generation. This paper performs a rationale and PSIM simulation of the proposed converter. Finally, experimental results from a 1.2kW(12V, 100A) prototype are presented to confirm the operation, validity and features of the proposed converter.
