Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been the overwhelmingly prevalent choice for high-data-rate systems due to its superior advantages compared with other modulation techniques. In contrast, a high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) is considered the fundamental obstacle in OFDM systems since it drives the system to suffer from in-band distortion and out-of-band radiation. The partial transmit sequence (PTS) technique is viewed as one of several strategies that have been suggested to diminish the high PAPR trend. The PTS relies upon dividing an input data sequence into a number of subblocks. Hence, three common types of the subblock segmentation methods have been adopted - interleaving (IL-PTS), adjacent (Ad-PTS), and pseudorandom (PR-PTS). In this study, a new type of subblock division scheme is proposed to improve the PAPR reduction capacity with a low computational complexity. The results indicate that the proposed scheme can enhance the PAPR reduction performance better than the IL-PTS and Ad-PTS schemes. Additionally, the computational complexity of the proposed scheme is lower than that of the PR-PTS and Ad-PTS schemes.

The mobile station shall convolutionally encode the data transmitted on the reverse traffic channel and the access channel prior to interleaving. Code symbols output from the convolutional encoder are repeated before being interleaved except the 9600 bps data rate. All the symbols are then interleaved, 64-ary orthogonal modulation, direct-sequence spreading, quadrature spreading, baseband filtering and QPSK transmission. The sync, paging, and forward traffic channel except the pilot channel in the forward CDMA channel are convolutionally encoded, block interleaved, spread with Walsh function at a fixed chip rate of 1.2288 Mcps to provide orthogonal channelization among all code channels. Following the spreading operation, the I and Q impulses are applied to respective baseband filters. After that, these impulses shall be transmitted by QPSK. Authentication in the CDMA system is the process for confirming the identity of the mobile station by exchanging information between a mobile station and the base station. The authentication scheme is to generate a 18-bit hash code from the 152-bit message length appended with 24-bit or 40-bit padding. Several techniques are proposed for the authentication data computation in this paper. To protect sensitive subscriber information, it shall be required enciphering ceratin fields of selected traffic channel signaling messages. The message encryption can be accomplished in two ways, i.e., external encryption and internal encryption.

In the last decade, artificial intelligence's dramatic advancement with the development of various deep learning techniques has significantly contributed to remote sensing fields and satellite image applications. Among many prominent areas, super-resolution research has seen substantial growth with the release of several benchmark datasets and the rise of generative adversarial network-based studies. However, most previously published remote sensing benchmark datasets represent spatial resolution within approximately 10 meters, imposing limitations when directly applying for super-resolution of small objects with cm unit spatial resolution. Furthermore, if the dataset lacks a global spatial distribution and is specialized in particular land covers, the consequent lack of feature diversity can directly impact the quantitative performance and prevent the formation of robust foundation models. To overcome these issues, this paper proposes a method to generate benchmark datasets by simulating the modulation transfer functions of the sensor. The proposed approach leverages the simulation method with a solid theoretical foundation, notably recognized in image fusion. Additionally, the generated benchmark dataset is applied to state-of-the-art super-resolution base models for quantitative and visual analysis and discusses the shortcomings of the existing datasets. Through these efforts, we anticipate that the proposed benchmark dataset will facilitate various super-resolution research shortly in Korea.

Underwater images carry information that is useful in the fields of aquaculture, underwater military security, navigation, transportation, and so on. In this research, we transmitted an underwater image through various underwater mediums in the presence of underwater turbulence and beam attenuation effects using a high-speed visible optical carrier signal. The optical beam undergoes scintillation because of the turbulence and attenuation effects; therefore, distorted images were observed at the receiver end. To understand the behavior of the communication media, we obtained the bit error rate (BER) performance of the system with respect to the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Also, the structural similarity index (SSI) and peak SNR (PSNR) metrics of the received image were evaluated. Based on the received images, we employed suitable nonlinear filters to recover the distorted images and enhance them further. The BER, SSI, and PSNR metrics of the specific nonlinear filters were also evaluated and compared with the unfiltered metrics. These metrics were evaluated using the on-off keying and binary phase-shift keying modulation techniques for the 50-m and 100-m links for beam attenuation resulting from pure seawater, clear ocean water, and coastal ocean water mediums.

Up-front irradiation technique as 3-dimensional conformation, or intensity modulation has kept large proportion of brain tumors from being complicated with acute radiation reactions in the normal tissue during or shortly after radiotherapy. For years, we've cannot help but counting on 2-D vertex beam technique to reduce acute reactions in the brain tumor patients because we're not equipped with 3-dimensional planning system. We analyzed its advantages and limitations in the clinical application. From 1998 to 2001, vertex or oblique vertex beams were applied to 35 patients with primary brain tumor and 25 among them were eligible for this analysis. Vertex(V) plans were optimized on the reconstructed coronal planes. As the control, we took the bilateral opposed techniques(BL) otherwise being applied. We compared the volumes included in 105% to 50% isodose lines of each plan. We also measured the radiation dose at various extracranial sites with TLD. With vertex techniques, we reduced the irradiated volumes of contralateral hemisphere and prevented middle ear effusion at contralateral side. But the low dose volume increased outside 100%; the ratio of V to BL in irradiated volume included in 100%, 80%, 50% was 0.55+/-0.10, 0.61+/-0.10, and 1.22+/-0.21, respectively. The hot area within 100% isodose line almost disappeared with vertex plan; the ratio of V to BL in irradiated volume included in 103%, 105%, 108% was 0.14+/-0.14, 0.05./-0.17, 0.00, respectively. The dose distribution within 100% isodose line became more homogeneous; the ratio of volume included in 103% and 105% to 100% was 0.62+/-0.14 and 0.26+/-0.16 in BL whereas was 0.16+/-0.16 and 0.02+/-0.04 in V. With the vertex techniques, extracranial dose increased up to $1{\sim}3%$ of maximum dose in the head and neck region except submandibular area where dose ranged 1 to 21%. From this data, vertex beam technique was quite effective in reduction of unnecessary irradiation to the contralateral hemispheres, integral dose, obtaining dose homogeneity in the clinical target. But it was associated with volume increment of low dose area in the brain and irradiation toward the head and neck region otherwise being not irradiated at all. Thus, this 2-D vertex technique can be a useful quasi-conformal method before getting 3-D apparatus.

이동통신이 발전해 감으로써 사용자들은 점점 더 높은 데이터율과 신뢰성이 높은 통신 시스템을 요구하고 있다. 최근에는 이러한 사용자 요구에 부합하기 위해 MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Out)와 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division multiplexing)의 장점을 모두 활용하는 MIMO-OFDM에 기반을 둔 시스템 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 또한, 빠른 무선 채널 환경에 대응하여 높은 전송률 및 양질의 데이터를 만족하기 위해서 채널 상태에 따라서 적응적으로 변조, 코딩, 부 반송 파수 및 파워 할당을 달리하는 시스템 등이 결합되고 있다. 이러한 피드백 기반 시스템은 얼마나 정확히 채널에 대한 상태 정보(CSI : Channel State Information)를 지연 없이 송신기에 전달하느냐에 따라서 시스템 전체 성능이 향상 될 수 있고 저하될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 송 수신단에서 서로 알고 있는 프리앰블(Preamble)을 이용하여 채널 추정과정 없이 정확한 SNR (신호 대 잡음비: Signal to Noise Ratio) 추정이 가능한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 여러 채널 환경에서 수행한 모의 실험결과, 제안 알고리즘은 기존의 프리앰블 기반 SNR 추정 알고리즘들 보다 가장 정확하게 SNR을 추정하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문은 다중 m-분포 페이딩 환경에서 하이브리드 DS /SFH-CDMA MFSK의 성능을 분석하였다. MPI와 MUI를 고려하였고, 스펙트럼 효과는 단순 채널 부호화 시스템과 마찬가지로 부호화하지 않았을 때 평가하였다. 컨벌루션 부호화와 다중 CCl Canceller를 함께 사용하였을 때 BER을 개선시켰다. 비동기 하이브리드 시스템 BER은 가우시안 간섭의 근사치를 이용하여 얻었다. 결과적으로, 페이딩의 심도가 깊으면 깊을수록 오율 성능이 더욱 저하됨을 알 수 있었다. DS부분의 변조는 MPl에 방해하는 것이고. FH부분의 겸파는 MUI를 크게 한다. 채널 코딩의 형태들을 고려함으로써 검파전 코딩은 충분한비트에러 수행을하는데 필요함을 보여 준다. 본 결과는 DS /SFH-CDMA MFSK 통신 시스템은 AWGN과 MUI에 있는 PN코드 길이의 비율에 의하여 증가한다. m-분포의 페이딩 환경은 페이딩 지수에 의하여 용량성이 증가한다. CCl Canceller와 컨벌루션 부호화 기법을 각각 채용할 때 용량성은 증가되고 오율 성능은 향상된다. Canceller기법을 사용하지 않은 경우 PN코드의 길이 N=31일 때 $8\times10^{-2}$의 오율을 얻을 수 있었으나 Can celler기법을 사용한 경우 $4\times10^{-2}$의 오율에 도달할 수 있었다. 또한 부호화 기법을 이용하지 않았올 때에는 오율 이 10-2에도 미치지 못했지만 컨별루션 부호화의 부호율 $\gamma$=1/2인 경우 약 $10^{-5}$에 도달하는 것을 알 수 있다.

다중톤 방해신호가 존재하는 레일리 페이딩 채널에서, MSK와 QPSK 변조방식을 사용하는 직접 시퀀스/느린 주파수 도약 복합 확산대역 시스템의 성능을 분석한다. 수신기에서 다이버시티를 사용하지 않는 MSK와 QPSK의 변조방식별 시스템의 비트오율 성능을 수신기에서의 평균 신호대 잡음비 E/sub b//N/sub 0/ 및 방해신호대 원하는 신호의 전력비(JSR)의 개념으로 유도하고, 여러 가지 시스템 파라메터의 변화에 따른 시스템의 성능을 평가한다. 또한, 페이딩이 없는 채널과 페이딩이 존재하는 채널, 그리고 MSK와 QPSK의 변조방식에 따라 성능을 비교 분석한다. 다중 톤 재밍이 있을 때, MSK 시스템과 QPSK 시스템간의 성능은 JSR=0dB 근처에서 서로 비슷했지만, JSR이 증가할수록 MSK 시스템의 성능이 더 좋아진다. 전체 확산 이득이 고정 된 경우에, 직접 확산 이득이 증가할수록 두 시스템의 성능이 전체적으로 개선되지만, 개선되는 BER 성능은 아주 작다. 또한 레일리 페이딩이 없을때에 비하여 페이딩이 있는 시스템의 성능은 E/sub b//N/sub 0/가 작은 경우에는 서로 비슷한 성능을 나타내지만, E/sub b//N/sub 0/가 증가할수록 큰 성능차이를 나타낸다.

Developments in power electronics have enabled the widespread application of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) inverters, notably for connecting renewable systems to the grid. This study demonstrates that a high-quality power can be achieved using a stand-alone inverter, whereby the comparison between the power quality of the stand-alone inverter with battery storage (off-grid) and the power quality of the utility network is presented. Multi-loop control techniques for a single phase stand-alone inverter are used. A capacitor current control is used to give active damping and enhance the transient and steady state inverter performance. A capacitor current control is cheaper than the inductor current control, where a small current sensing resistor is used. The output voltage control is used to improve the system performance and also control the output voltage. The inner control loop uses a proportional gain current controller and the outer loop is implemented using internal model control proportional-integral-derivative to ensure stability. The optimal controls are achieved by using the Sisotool tool in MATLAB/Simulink. The outcome of the control scheme of the numerical model of the stand-alone inverter has a smooth and good dynamic performance, but also a strong robustness to load variations. The numerical model of the stand-alone inverter and its power quality are presented, and the power quality is shown to meet the IEEE 519-2014. Furthermore, the power quality of the off-grid system is measured experimentally and compared with the grid power, showing power quality of off-grid system to be better than that of the utility network.
