본 논문은 수중에서 은밀성을 확보하기 위해 FSK(Frequency Shift Keying)를 이용하여 돌고래 휘슬음을 모방하는 통신 기법과 다중경로 결합 이득을 이용하여 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능을 높이는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 휘슬음을 짧은 시간 구간으로 나누고 그 구간에 심볼의 직교성을 보장하는 FSK 변조신호를 만든다. 그리고 휘슬음을 모방할 때 다중경로 채널에서 심볼간의 ISI(Inter Symbol Interference)가 줄어드는 특징을 이용하여 다중경로 결합 이득을 얻는 방법이다. 제안한 방법의 성능을 보이기 위해 전산모의실험과 실제 호수실험을 진행하였다. 전산모의실험을 통해 다중경로에 의해 추가적인 다중경로 결합 이득이 발생함을 보였다. 호수 실험에서는 제안된 FSK 방법이 20 msec의 심볼 길이와 900 Hz의 변조 대역을 갖는 경우 다중경로 결합 이득을 얻어 0.002의 BER갖고 0.185의 BER을 갖는 CSS(Chirp Spread Spectrum)보다 우수함을 보였다. 그리고 모방한 신호와 실제 휘슬 신호의 시간-주파수 영역에서 평균 상호 상관 값을 통해 모방도를 분석하여 제안된 FSK방법이 CSS방법에 비해 높은 모방도를 보였다.

In this paper, we propose a sum transmission rate maximization based cooperative spectrum sharing protocol with quality-of-service (QoS) support for both of the primary and secondary systems, which exploits the situation when the primary system experiences a weak channel. The secondary transmitter ST_b which provides the best performance for the primary and secondary systems is selected to forward the primary signal. Specifically, ST_b helps the primary system achieve the target rate by using a fraction of its power to forward the primary signal. As a reward, it can gain spectrum access by using the remaining power to transmit its own signal. We study the secondary user selection and optimal power allocation such that the sum transmission rate of primary and secondary systems is maximized, while the QoS of both primary and secondary systems can be guaranteed. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed spectrum sharing protocol and its benefit to both primary and secondary systems.

Self-encoded spread spectrum (SESS) is a novel modulation technique that acquires its spreading code from a random information source, rather than using the traditional pseudo-random noise (PN) codes. In this paper, we present our study of the SESS system performance under pulsed-noise jamming and show that iterative detection can significantly improve the bit error rate (BER) performance. The jamming performance of the SESS with correlation detection is verified to be similar to that of the conventional direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) system. On the other hand, the time diversity detection of the SESS can completely mitigate the effect of jamming by exploiting the inherent temporal diversity of the SESS system. Furthermore, iterative detection with multiple iterations can not only eliminate the jamming completely but also achieve a gain of approximately 1 dB at $10^{-3}$ BER as compared with the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) system under additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) by effectively combining the correlation and time diversity detections.

Background: The relationship between small for gestational age (SGA) and autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) remains unknown. Purpose: This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the relationship between SGA and the risk of ASD. Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases from inception to November 2020. The heterogeneity across studies was explored using the I² statistic. The possibility of publication bias was assessed using Begg test. The results were reported using the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) using a random-effects model. Results: The literature search yielded 824 articles with 8,752,138 participants. We assessed the association between SGA and the risk of ASD in cohort and case-control studies. Based on the random-effects model, compared with SGA, the estimated OR of the risk of ASD was 1.17 (95% CI, 1.09-1.24). Therefore, there was a significant association between SGA and the risk of ASD. Conclusion: Based on OR reports in epidemiological studies, we showed that SGA is a risk factor for and can increase the risk of ASD. The association between SGA and ASD risk has further relevance to the current public health emphasis on appropriate prepregnancy weight and pregnancy weight gain.

본 논문에서는 다중톤 재밍이 존재하는 나카가미­m 페이딩 환경하에서 BFSK 변조방식을 사용한 Hybrid DS/FH 확산대역 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 주파수 도약율이 증가할수록 시스템의 성능이 향상되었으며, 확산대역 시스템의 복합비를 고정하였을 경우 DS확산대역 방식의 시스템보다 더 낮은 비트 에러 확률을 가짐을 증명하였다. 또한 m값이 증가함에 따라 페이딩의 영향이 감소함을 알 수 있었으며, 신호대 방해신호의 전력비(SJR)가 증가할수록 DS 확산대역 시스템보다 성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 결과적으로 재밍이 존재하는 나카가미­m 페이딩 환경 하에서 Hybrid DS/SFH 확산대역 시스템의 성능이 DS 확산대역 시스템의 성능보다 우수함을 입증하였다.

전력선 통신은 전력선 채널의 특성이 전력선에 연결된 부하에 의해 변화하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 한 가지 방법으로 대역확산(Spread Spectrum) 방식이 사용되어 왔으며, 그 중 DS/SS (Direct Sequence/Spread Spectrum)은 별다른 Hardware의 추가 없이 구현할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. DS/SS 시스템에서는 의사잡음(PN code)의 Chip수가 길어질 수 록 에러율이 감소하게 되지만, 저속 전력선 모뎀의 경우 긴 Chip수를 사용할 경우 원하는 데이터 전송 속도를 얻어내기 힘들다. Dual-processing Gain을 가지는 Spread Spectrum 시스템은 전력선 잡음의 주기적 특성을 반영하고자 하였다. 그러나 제안되었던 시스템은 잡음의 형태가 전원전압의 1/4주기를 기준으로 대칭적이라는 가정 하에서 적용되어 실제 여러 형태의 전력선 잡음을 반영하지 못하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 여러 잡음의 형태에 따라 PN code의 Chip수가 주기적으로 변경되도록 알고리즘을 구현하여 시스템을 구성 후 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 시 부하의 잡음을 측정 및 모델링하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 구성된 시스템은 여러 전력선 채널의 잡음상황 하에서 실제 데이터 전송 속도를 적게 감소시키면서 에러율은 효과적으로 감소시키는 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper, optimal sensing time allocation for adaptive multiband spectrum sensing-transmission procedure is investigated. The sensing procedure consists of an exploration phase and a detection phase. We first formulate an optimization problem to maximize the throughput by designing not only the overall sensing time, but also the sensing time for every stage in the exploration and detection phases, while keeping the miss detection probability for each channel under a pre-defined threshold. Then, we transform the initial non-convex optimization problem into a convex bilevel optimization problem to make it mathematically tractable. Simulation results show that the optimized sensing time setting in this paper can provide a significant performance gain over the previous studies.

We improved the performance of the spectrum-sliced light source for wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical networks by employing a Fabry-Perot laser diode(FP-LD). We found that the FP-LDs can suppress the intensity noise as significantly as using a gain-saturated semiconductor optical amplifier. The transmission characteristics were measured and analyzed in both conditions with and without employing an FP-LD.

A hybrid DS/SFH spread spectrum system is used to achieve a larger gain in some applications. The probability of error for a hybrid DS/SFH(direct sequence/slow frequency hopped) spread-spectrum system is calculated over a channel which suffers from multiple-tone jamming and additive white Gaussian noise. BPSK(binary phase shift keying) is considered as modulation scheme. The probability of error is computed for various system parameters such as a DS/SFH hybrid ratio, the number of jamming tones, a jamming-to-signal ratio, and a siganl-to-noise ratio. It is shown that a DS system or a SFH system achieves smaller probability of error than a hybrid DS/SFH system for most values of system parameters. However, it is also shown that there are hybrid ratios with which a hybrid DS/SFH system achieves smaller probability of error than a DS system and a SFH system achieve for some values of system parameters.

A simple method is proposed for determining the frequency response function G(j.omega.) of a system using a pair of characteristic M-sequences (maximum length linear feed back shift register sequence). When a characteristic M-sequence is sampled with q$_{1}$ and q$_{2}$ both of which are coprime with N, where N is the period of the M-sequence, the obtained pair of sequences have conjugate complex frequency spectrum. Making use of this fact, two charcteristic M-sequences having conjugate complex frequency spectrum are applied to a system to be measured. Since the magnitude of spectrium of M-sequence is known, the gain of G(j.omega.) is directly obtained from the Fourier transform of the system output. The phase of G(j.omega.) is obtained simply by taking the average of the two phases of output spectrum.
