  • In order to achieve the low complexity and area, power in the design of Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) suitable for the smart phone, this paper presents the following design explorations, such as; optimization of gyroscope sampling rate, simple and accurate gyroscope filters, and reduced operating frequency of motion compensation, optimized bit width in ADC and DAC, evaluation of noise effects due to PWM driving. In experiments of gyroscope sampling frequencies, it is found that error values are unvaried in the frequency above 5KHz. The gyroscope filter is efficiently designed by combining the Fuzzy algorithm, to illustrate the reasonable compensation for the angle and phase errors. Further, in the PWM design, the power consumption of 2MHz driving is shown to decrease up to 50% with respect to the linear driving, and the imaging noises are reduced in the driving frequency above 2MHz driving frequency. The operating frequency could be reduced to 5KHz in controller and 10KHz in driver, respectively, in the motion compensation. For ADC and DAC, the optimized exploration experiments verify the minimum bit width of 11bits in ADC as well as 10bits in DAC without the performance degradation.

  • A new digital correlator fur an airborne synthetic aperture radiometer was designed in order to replace the conventional analog correlator unit which will become very complicated while the number of channels is increasing. The digital correlator uses digital IQ demodulator instead of the intermediate frequency (IF) phase shifter to make the correlation processing performed digitally at base band instead of analogly at IF. This technique has been applied to the digital receiver in softradio. The down-converted IF signals from each pair of receiver channels become low rate base-band digital signals after under-sampled, Digitally Down-Converted (DDC), decimated and filtered by FIR filters. The digital signals are further processed by two digital multipliers (complex correlation), the products are integrated by the integrators and finally the outputs from the integrators compose of the real part and the imaginary part of a sample of the visibility function. This design is tested by comparing the results from digital correlators and that from analog correlators. They are agreed with each other very well. Due to the fact that the digital correlators are realized with the help of Analog-Digital Converter (ADC) chips and the FPGA technology, the realized volume, mass, power consumption and complexity turned out to be greatly reduced compared with that of the analog correlators. Simulations show that the resolution of ADC has an influence on the synthesized antenna patterns, but this can be neglected if more than 2bit is used.

  • In this paper, we present the design of a 20MHz bandwidth 3rd-order continuous-time low-pass sigma-delta modulator with low-noise and low-power consumption. The bandwidth of the system is sufficient to accommodate LTE and other wireless network standards. The 3rd-order low-pass filter with feed-forward architecture achieves the low-power consumption as well as the low complexity. The system uses 3bit flash quantizer to provide fast data conversion. The current-steering DAC achieves low-power and improved sensitivity without additional circuitries. Cross-coupled transistors are adopted to reduce the current glitches. The proposed system achieves a peak SNDR of 65.9dB with 20MHz bandwidth and power consumption of 32.65mW. The in-band IM3 is simulated to be 69dBc with 600mVp-p two tone input tones. The circuit is designed in a 0.18-um CMOS technology and is driven by 500MHz sampling rate signal.

  • In this paper, an energy detection-based low power, low complexity IR-UWB receiver in multipath impulse radio channel is presented. The proposed receiver has a simple 1-bit sampler for energy detection. Also, multipath signal received from multipath impulse radio channel is amplified and envelope of the signal is detected. Then, energy detection technique using integrator by summing multipath signals in certain period is adopted to minimize the BER loss by simple energy detection. In particular, in acquisition of a sample signal, SNR is additionally improved using a digital sampler. Symbol decision using several sampled signals is performed and thus the process of symbol synchronization is significantly simplified. Also, it is effectively designed to be compatible with influences of multipath and timing error. In addition, the proposed receiver complexity is reduced using pulse decision window. The performance of the proposed receiver is simulated based on IEEE 802.15.4a channel model and the algorithms are implemented on FPGA.

  • A design of a 32-bit fourth-stage decimation filter decimation filter used in sigma-delta analog-to-digital (A/D) converter is proposed in this work. A four-stage decimation filter with down-sampling factor of 512 and 32-bit output is developed. A multi-stage cascaded integrator-comb (CIC) filter, which reduces the sampling rate by 64, is used in the first stage. Three half-band FIR filters are used after the CIC filter, each of which reduces the sampling rate by two. The pipeline structure is applied in the CIC filter to reduce the power consumption of the CIC. The Canonic Signed Digit (CSD) arithmetic is used to optimize the multiplier structure of the FIR filter. This filter is implemented based on a semi-custom design flow and a 130nm CMOS standard cell library. This decimation filter operates at 98.304 MHz and provides 32-bit output data at an audio frequency of 192 kHz with power consumption of $697{\mu}W$. In comparison to the previous work, this design shows a higher performance in resolution, operation frequency and decimation factor with lower power consumption and small logic utilization.

  • In this paper, we propose a QAPM(Quadrature Amplitude Position Modulation) modulation using compressive sensing for the purpose of power efficiency improvement. QAPM modulation is a combination technique of QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) and PPM(Pulse Position Modulation). Therefore it can decrease the transmission power and improve BER performance. Moreover, even if the band width is widened when the number of positions is increased, high sparsity characteristic caused by position number can be applied to compressive sensing technique. Compressive sensing has recently studied as a method that can be successfully reconstructed from the small number of measurements for sparse signal. Therefore, the proposed system can lower price of receiver by reducing sampling rate and has performance improved by using QAPM modulation. And the results are confirmed through simulations.

  • Lithium-ion batteries have been used for high density energy storage system due to the features such as low self-discharge rate. And the unit cell battery with the voltage less than 4V is recommended to use the series connections for a high voltage charger. When batteries are charged or discharged with series connection, there may be an explosion or degradation of unit cell battery owing to undistributed internal resistance of cell battery. therefore, the voltages of unit cell batteries should be monitored to prevent an overcharging and a deep discharging. This paper introduces the implementation of CVM (Cell Voltage Monitoring) system that can transmit the 12 channel's information including voltages and temperatures with the 12-bits resolutions and the transmission speed of 192 kbps.

  • Soil problems and agricultural water management of the reclaimed land in Korea were reviewed through research results conducted in RDA and ADC. According to the Korean Soil Classification and Soil Survey(NIAST, 2002), the 5 soil orders with the 45 soil series were distributed on the fluvio-marine or marine deposit of the west and south coastal plains. Yeompo, Munpo, Hasa, Gwangwhal, and Poseung soil series were most commonly distributed soil on the fluvio-marine deposits, associated with tideland of the sea coast. Former 4 soils were Entisols, and the latest one was the Inceptisols. Buyong soil associated with Poseung series was an Alfisols. Extent of Myeongji soil, a Molisols, and Yongho soil, a Histosol, were minor. Salinity control and management problems were closely related with high water table and low percolation rate due to plow-pan layer developed during the leaching process in the silty textured soil. For evaluation of field salinity, use of an electromagnetic inductance, EM38, with GPS was helpful to understand salinity status and field variability. Deep plowing, subsoiling and drainage improvement by tile drainage might be effective in paddy with plow-pan. New technology such as variable rate fertilization might save fertilizers and thus reduce environmental impact of agriculture on water quality. Water quality of agricultural water resources in reclaimed land was less adequate than that of inland water resources. Proper crop management is necessary depended upon quality for crop growth as well as to match with water quality target.

  • Background: Northern Iran counts as one of the highest prevalence regions for esophageal cancer (EC) worldwide. This study was designed to assess the epidemiologic aspects of EC in north central and northwest Iran over a 10 year period. Materials and Methods: The Guilan cancer registry study (GCRS) is a population-based cancer registry study featuring retrospective (1996-2003) and prospective (2004-2005) phases. A detailed questionnaire based on WHO standards for cancer registratration was applied to gather the required information. Two trained physicians coded information using ICD-O-3 in close coordination with an expert pathologist. Results: A total of 19,936 cases of malignancy (mean age $55.4{\pm}18.0$ years, range: 1-98 years) were registered, including 1,147 cases (670 males, 447 female; mean age: $64.0{\pm}11.5$ years) of EC. In 1996 the male/female ratio among patients with EC was 1.25 which increased to 1.53 in 2005. The lower third of the esophagus still remained the most common site of tumors. The average age-standardized rate (ASR) was 6.9 and 4.1 per $10^5$ men and women, respectively. In 1996, the ASRs were 7.2 and 5.2 per $10^5$ men and women which decreased to 6.9 and 4.1 per $10^5$ in 2004-2005. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was the most prevalent histological subtype of EC accounting over 80% of cases. Conclusions: However the prevalence of adenocarcinoma (ADC) showed an increase to 18.4%. Guilan province may be considered a relatively low incidence region for EC.
