The transform limited optical short pulses are generated by compression of pulses from a gain switched distributed feedback laser at 5 GHz repetition rate. The gain-switched pulses have the minimum pulse width of 27 psec with the spectral width of 1.1 nm. Thus the output pulses have a large amount of linear chirp and nonlinear chirp. We suppress the nonlinear chirp by passing the pulses through the optical band pass filter with 3 dB band width of 0.55 nm which is narrower than spectral width of the input pulses and generate 7.1 psec pulses by compressing the output with the dispersion compensating fiber. The pulses have time-bandwidth product of 0.49 which is close to the transform limited gaussian pulse. These pulses can be utilized as optical sources in 40 Gbit/s time division multiplexed optical transmission system.

In this paper, we consider a beamforming game between the transmitters in a two-user multiple-input single-output interference channel using limited feedback and investigate how each transmitter is able to find a modified strategy from the quantized channel state information (CSI). In the beamforming game, each of the transmitters (i.e., a player) tries to maximize the achievable rate (i.e., a payoff function) via a proper beamforming strategy. In our case, each transmitter's beamforming strategy is represented by a linear combining factor between the maximum ratio transmission (MRT) and the zero forcing (ZF) beamforming vectors, which is the Pareto optimal achieving strategy. With the quantized CSI, the transmitters' strategies may not be valid because of the quantization errors. We propose a modified solution, which takes into account the effects of the quantization errors.

In this paper, collision avoidance beamforming(CA-BF) technology is proposed to mitigate inter-cell interference in cooperative wireless communications system with limited feedback. Each acess terminal(AT) selects both the best BF weight vector for a serving base transceiver station(BTS) and the most interfering BF weight vectors of interfering BTSs within a cluster, and sends it back to a cluster scheduler. At the cluster scheduler, a set of transmit BF weights of BTSs and the corresponding scheduled ATs are jointly determined to avoid collision among beams formed by BTSs within a cluster, which enhances system throughput by mitigating inter-cell interference. It is shown that the proposed CA-BF outperforms existing non-coordinated BF schemes in terms of the average system throughput.

This paper aims to constitute a feedback vibration control system using wireless sensor networks and experiment it on a model structure to verify its effectiveness. For the purpose, we set up a feedback vibration control system composed of a wireless input/output(I/O) sensor node based on bluetooth, a home-made shear type MR damper, a shaker which generates a constant size of sine wave, and a simple beam model structure. The vibration control experiment was performed by shaking the 1/4 point of beam with a shaker. At the moment of shaking, we controled the vibration with MR damper which was placed vertically on the center of beam. Simultaneously, by acquiring acceleration response at the 2/4 point of beam, we evaluated the effectiveness of control capability. The control command was set to send a voltage signal to MR damper when the acceleration response, acquired from the wireless I/O sensor node placed at the center of beam, was more than a certain amount. Although the realtime feedback vibration control system constituted in this paper is effective only within a limited command system, it has been proven that the system was able to effectively decrease the vibration of structure by generating a control command aimed for realtime purpose. The system also showed a possibility to be used as a structural response control system adapting a variety of semi-active control algorithm.

Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway is one of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction pathways. This pathway is known as pivotal in many signaling networks that govern proliferation, differentiation and cell survival. The ERK signaling pathway comprises positive and negative feedback loops, depending on whether the terminal kinase stimulates or inhibits the activation of the initial level. In this paper, we attempt to model the ERK pathway by considering both of the positive and negative feedback mechanisms based on Michaelis-Menten kinetics. In addition, we propose a fraction ratio model based on the mass action law. We first develop a mathematical model of the ERK pathway with fraction ratios. Secondly, we analyze the dynamical properties of the fraction ratio model based on simulation studies. Furthermore, we propose a concept of an inhibitor, catalyst, and substrate (ICS) controller which regulates the inhibitor, catalyst, and substrate concentrations of the ERK signal transduction pathway. The ICS controller can be designed through dynamical analysis of the ERK signaling transduction pathway within limited concentration ranges.

Traditional tactile controls that include push buttons and rotary switches may cause significant visual and biomechanical distractions if they are located away from the driver's line of sight and hand position, for example, on the central console. Gestural controls, as an alternative to traditional controls, are natural and can reduce visual distractions; however, their types and numbers are limited and have no feedback. To overcome the problems, a driver interface combining gestures and visual feedback with a head-up display has been proposed recently. In this paper, we investigated the effect of this type of interface in terms of driving performance measures. Human-in-the-loop experiments were conducted using a driving simulator with the traditional tactile and the new gesture-based interfaces. The experimental results showed that the new interface caused less visual distractions, better gap control between ego and target vehicles, and better recognition of road conditions comparing to the traditional one.

In this paper, We present a low cost auxiliary circuit of $S^4-PFC$converter with the feedback winding, which can improve the input current waveform with the maintenance of limited DC Bus Voltage and high efficiency. The converter with feedback winding was analyzed to demonstrate the proposed converter. Int order to verify the performance of the proposed converter, we designed the converter which operates at the output of 5[V], 65[W] and switching frequency of 100[kHz] within the universal line voltage. Implemented converter has decreased line current peak value by 50[%] compared with the conventional converters and the power utilization was increased in the line period.

Recently, the structure of simulation environment is important issue in all fields. In case of the training for operating the machines which are costly such as airplanes or spaceships, simulators could be helpful for decreasing the costs and training effects by simulating real situation. When we get the driving license, too many peoples are waiting for their turns because of limited cars and testing spaces in Korea. To solve this problem, we've designed and developed the basic design for the simulators. We suggested the Computer 3D Simulation Model for practice of a drives's license. The concept of this simulator was from a 3D Racing-game which suit for driving exercise. We provide users with handle-controlled simulation setting in order that users feel reality as if they drive really through this simulator. We also use 'force-feedback' system which give handle vibration in case users collide against obstacles or exceed the line since users can absorb the simulation program and feel the sense for the real. This paper is the study about modeling the driving exercise model made use of 'computer 3D simulation', and producing and utilizing the simulator through this modeling.

In the distributed video coding (DVC) system, the difference between the side information and the original Wyner-Ziv frame is corrected using channel codes and the additional parity bits are requested through feedback channel if the error is not corrected. The efficient bit rate control is important to use the DVC system in the band-limited channel, such as mobile communication environments. In this paper, the constant bit rate control method in the encoder of the DVC system is proposed. The coding performance as well as the bit rate is efficiently controlled by the proposed method.

A novel ultra-narrow linewidth DFB laser in the extended FBG ring cavity having kHz linewidth is presented. The method of linewidth compression was realized by introducing an extended fiber ring cavity into the cavity between the external FBG and the Bragg grating inside a DFB laser diode. Optimum optical feedback control was achieved by using an optical circulator and a variable optical attenuator to prevent mode hopping induced by spatial hole burning. To prove the validity of the proposed scheme, a self-heterodyne measurement set-up with fiber delay line of 63 km was utilized for the ultra-narrow linewidth measurement. A 3 dB linewidth of less than 3 kHz was demonstrated, which is resolution limited performance. This linewidth is equivalent to 3 dB linewidth of 2$\times$10$^{-8}$ nm.
