블루투스 전송 기술은 2.4㎓ 의 ISM(Industrial Scientific Medicine)밴드에서 주파수 호핑 방식을 사용한다. 주파수 호핑율은 연결 상태에서 초당 1600회, 조회 또는 호출 상태에서 초당 3200회의 호핑을 한다. Hop 채널 선택은 블루투스 표준안에서 제시한 5개의 호핑 시퀸스 중 하나를 선택하고 호핑 주파수에 따라 이를 매핑 함으로써 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 6개의 상태에 따라 다르게 실행되는 채널 계산을 효율적으로 제어하고 필요한 연산모듈의 수를 줄이기 위해 9비트 프로세서를 이용해 Hop 선택 모듈을 설계하고 구현한다. 설계된 모듈은 레지스터 파일, 마이크로프로그램 제어장치, 가산, 치환(permutation), Modulo 계산을 위한 3개의 연산장치로 구성된다. Hop 채널 계산 중 가장 클럭 소요가 큰 Modulo 연산은 SRT나눗셈 알고리즘을 사용하여 음수 값 계산 및 연산 속도 향상을 꾀하였다. 제시된 Hop 선택 모듈은 하드웨어 묘사언어인 VHDL로 설계하고 시뮬레이션 및 테스트는 Xilinx FPGA를 이용해 검증하였다.

Bluetooth technology is a publicly available specification proposed for Radio Frequency (RF) communication for short-range :1nd point-to-multipoint voice and data transfer. It operates in the 2.4㎓ ISM(Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band and offers the potential for low-cost, broadband wireless access for various mobile and portable devices at range of about 10 meters. In this paper, we describe the structure and the test results of the bluetooth baseband module with direct memory access method we have developed. This module consists of three blocks; link controller, UART interface, and audio CODEC. This module has a bus interface for data communication between this module and main processor and a RF interface for the transmission of bit-stream between this module and RF module. The bus interface includes DMA interface. Compared with the link controller with FIFOs, The module with DMA has a wide difference in size of module and speed of data processing. The small size module supplies lorr cost and various applications. In addition, this supports a firmware upgrade capability through UART. An FPGA and an ASIC implementation of this module, designed as soft If, are tested for file and bit-stream transfers between PCs.

This paper describes the performance evaluation and analysis of Wireless Local Area Network (W-LAN) in the 5 GHz ISM-band in compliance with IEEE 802.11a. At present, most W-LAN products are based on 2.4 GHz band, but low speed (11Mbps) has the limitation to serve systems demanding high-speed data transmission. To solve this problem, it is necessary to design next generation W-LAN system with 54Mbps in the 5GHz. It is sure that implementation of next generation W-LAN will bring competitive advantages. In particular, it will support telecommunications for high-speed mobile environments as well as for fixed places such as a school zone, a lecture room, a hospital and other premises. A few simulation methods are applied to more accurate and reliable performance analysis of next generation W-LAN. To verify if continuous data service is supported for a high-speed mobile notebook, multi-path fading channels between wireless Access Point (AP) and wireless Network Interface Card (NIC) are modeled. In addition, low interference is analyzed via convolutional codes and Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM). Also, to obtain reliable Bit Error Rate (BER), a single tap Least Mean Square (LMS) equalizer is applied. Given the above simulation, next generation W-LAN is an ideal solution for continuous data transmission in high-speed mobile environments.

Planar antennas are very efficient for the use of the out-door data transmission applications due to their low-profile characteristics. But the size of the antenna in UHF band blocks the practical usage. In this paper, a miniaturized planar antenna is investigated for the application of AMR system in UHF band. The designed antenna is fabricated in the form of the microstrip patch on the FR-4 substrate. The miniaturization is achieved by slot-loading on the patch. First, effects of simple slots on the size reduction are analyzed, followed by the design using more complex slots resulting in the reduction ratio of 37.9% in 425.6 MHz and bandwidth of 3.8 MHz. The effect of epoxy coating for the protection is also investigated.
