OFDM is one of the promising modulation candidates for a fourth generation broadband mobile communication system because of its robustness against inter-symbol inteference(ISI). The OFDM transmission technique has the inherent flexibility to adapt the modulation scheme on each subcarrier according to the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR). In this paper, the adaptive modulation scheme of OFDM system is proposed in broadband mobile channel. The proposed algorithm allocates initially the number of bits in each subcarrier using the threshold SNR according to the target BER and controls the total number of target bits using the well-known algorithm of Chow et al. In addition, the subcarriers of the proposed algorithm are clustered in blocks, that the signalling overhead can be reduced for the bit allocation of subcarriers. For the simulated experiments, this paper presents an evaluation for the effects of target BER, the various numbers of subcarriers in the subband block, and Doppler frequency on the performance of adaptive OFDM in broadband mobile channel.

We characterized the properties of the fabricated filter with the total internal reflection mirror (TIR) in the rectangular ring resonator and very small multimode interference (MMI) couplers on an InP material platform for photonic integrated circuits. Coupling power in and out of a resonator is increased by using an optimum MMI length of 110 ${\mu}m$ and a width of 9 ${\mu}m$, respectively. The semiconductor optical amplifier with the length of 120 ${\mu}m$ is integrated in the resonator to compensate the loss of the internal waveguide and the TIR mirror. A free spectral range of approximately 2 nm (244 GHz) is observed with an on-off ratio of 13 dB. The curve fitting also yields the power coupled per pass as 42%. To reach critical coupling at this coupling level would require a round trip loss of about 2.4 dB.

In this paper, interference analysis has been performed between RF receiver and transmitters on each soldier for Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System(MILES) which are following ZigBee standard. In order to obtain minimum transmit power without interference, 1% Packet Error Rates(PER) from 14 transmitters attached on a soldier to a receiver are measured with the scenarios for simple transmitting and receiving network configuration and for repeating network configuration. Based on this transmit power, the available distance for interference free among soldiers is simulated using Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte Carlo Analysis Tool(SEAMCAT). Later scenario gives the benefit of 10dB lower transmit power, smaller and lighter power source, and better activity of trainee.

We fabricated and characterized RWG-DFB-LDs emitting at $1.3\mu\textrm{m}$ wavelength. For fabrication of the laser diode, inteference fringe of optical beams was used for grating formation and epi layers were grown by LPE. The fablicated RWG-DFB-LD operated in a single longitudinal mode with more than 30 dB SMSR at 1296.5 nm emitting wavelength and its threshold current was 67 mA. Coupling coefficient (K) was estimated as $40cm^{-1}$ by means of stop-band measurement. Finally, we show that the RWG-DFB-LD fabricated in this experiment can be applicable as light source of 2.5 Gbps optical communication system from the fact that the small signal response of the RWG-DFB-LD rated up to 1.99 GHz at pre-bias level of $1.2 I_{th}$..

The aim of this study is to assess the interference effect of other organic acids to the values of hippuric acid analysed by UV method. We calculated the interference effect of several metabolites of styrene and xylene, i.e., methylhippuric acid, phenylglyoxylic acid, and mandelic acid to hippuric acid, respectively. The result of interlaboratory quality control program of urinary hippuric acid showed that there was no significant difference between the results by UV and HPLC if there were no other organic acids in urine. However, 0.5-2.0 g/L methylhippuric acid showed positive interference of 64-82% to 0.33 g/L urinary hippuric acid while mandelic acid or phenylglyoxylic acid did not show this positive effect. We suggest that HPLC or GC method is more acceptable than UV method to analyse urinary hippuric acid for biological monitoring when the worker was exposed to mixture of toluene and xylene.
