We consider a cell edge environment. In cell edge, a user interfered by signal which is generated by a base stations not including the user. In cell edge environment, that is, there are inter cell interference (ICI) as well as multi user interference (MUI). Coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) is a technique which mitigates ICI between base stations. In CoMP, therefore, base stations can coordinate with each other by sharing user state information (CSI) in order to mitigate ICI. To improve sum rate performance in CoMP, each base station should generate optimal user group and transmit data to users selected in the optimal user group. In this paper, we propose a user selection algorithm in CoMP. The proposed method use signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) as criterion of selecting users. Because base station can't measure accurate SINR of users, in this paper, we estimate SINR equation considering ICI as well as MUI. Also, we propose a user selection algorithm based on the estimated SINR. Through MATAL simulation, we verify that the proposed method improves the system sum rate by an average of 1.5 ~ 3 bps/Hz compared to the conventional method.

An accurate constant output voltage provided by the analog memory cell may be used by the low power oscillator to generate an accurate low frequency output signal. This accurate low frequency output signal may be used to maintain long-term timing accuracy in host devices during sleep modes of operation when an external crystal is not available to provide a clock signal. Further, incorporation of the analog memory cell in the low power oscillator is fully implementable in a 0.35um Samsung standard CMOS process. Therefore, the analog memory cell incorporated into the low power oscillator avoids the previous problems in a oscillator by providing a temperature-stable, low power consumption, size-efficient method for generating an accurate reference clock signal that can be used to support long sleep mode operation.

This paper investigates the traffic offloading over unlicensed bands for two-tier multi-mode small cell networks. We formulate this problem as a Stackelberg game and apply a hierarchical learning framework to jointly maximize the utilities of both macro base station (MBS) and small base stations (SBSs). During the learning process, the MBS behaves as a leader and the SBSs are followers. A pricing mechanism is adopt by MBS and the price information is broadcasted to all SBSs by MBS firstly, then each SBS competes with other SBSs and takes its best response strategies to appropriately allocate the traffic load in licensed and unlicensed band in the sequel, taking the traffic flow payment charged by MBS into consideration. Then, we present a hierarchical Q-learning algorithm (HQL) to discover the Stackelberg equilibrium. Additionally, if some extra information can be obtained via feedback, we propose an improved hierarchical Q-learning algorithm (IHQL) to speed up the SBSs' learning process. Last but not the least, the convergence performance of the proposed two algorithms is analyzed. Numerical experiments are presented to validate the proposed schemes and show the effectiveness.

An alternative CMOS implementation of a multi-output four-terminal floating nullor (FTFN) with constant-g$_{m}$ rall-to-rail input stage is proposed. This presented circuit is based on the advantages of a complementary transconductance amplifier and class AB dual translinear cell circuit that comes up with wide bandwidth. The constant-g$_{m}$ characteristic is controlled by the maximum-current selection circuits, maintaining the smooth response over the change of input common mode voltage. The circuit performances are confirmed through HSPICE simulations. A current-mode multifunction filter is used to exhibit the potentiality of this proposed scheme.eme.

This paper describes a multi-mode LDPC decoder which supports 19 block lengths and 6 code rates of Quasi-Cyclic LDPC code for Mobile WiMAX system. To achieve an efficient implementation of 114 operation modes, some design optimizations are considered including block-serial layered decoding scheme, a memory reduction technique based on the min-sum decoding algorithm and a novel method for generating the cyclic shift values of parity check matrix. From fixed-point simulations, decoding performance and optimal hardware parameters are analyzed. The designed LDPC decoder is verified by FPGA implementation, and synthesized with a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library. It has 380,000 gates and 52,992 bits RAM, and the estimated throughput is about 164 ~ 222 Mbps at 56 MHz@1.8 V.

This study presents a practical implementation of a multi-mode two-phase interleaved boost converter for fuel cell electric vehicle application. The main operating modes, which include two continuous conducting modes and four discontinuous conducting modes, are discussed. The boundaries and transitions among these modes are analyzed with consideration of the inductor parasitic resistance. The safe operational area is analyzed through a comparison of the different operating modes. The output voltage and power characteristics with open-loop or closed-loop operation are also discussed. Key performance parameters, including the DC voltage gain, input ripple current, output ripple voltage, and switch stresses, are presented and supported by simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents a dynamic association and natural interaction method for multi-displays composed of smart devices. Users can intuitively associate relations among smart devices by shake gestures, flexibly modify the layout of the display by tilt gestures, and naturally interact with the multi-display by multi-touch interactions. First of all, users shake their smart devices to create and bind a group for a multi-display with a matrix configuration in an ad-hoc and collaborative situation. After the creation of the group, if needed, their display layout can be flexibly changed by tilt gestures that move the tilted device to the nearest vacant cell in the matrix configuration. During the tilt gestures, the system automatically modifies the relation, view, and configuration of the multi-display. Finally, users can interact with the multi-display through multi-touch interactions just as they interact with a single large display. Furthermore, depending on the context or role, synchronous or asynchronous mode is available to them for providing a split view or another UI. We will show the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed approach by demonstrating implementation results and evaluating the method by the usability study.

단일 사용자 OFDM/TDD 시스템에서 스펙트럼 효율을 최대화하는 부 대역과 자원 할당 주기결정 방식이 이미 제안되어 있다. 그러나 그 기법은 단일 사용자에 대한 것이며, 다중 셀 다중 사용자인 경우에는 사용자마다 부 대역으로 나누는 대역의 크기가 다르고 자원 할당 주기가 다르게 될 수 있다. 또한 다중 셀 환경에서 자원 할당을 할 경우에는 다른 셀에서 오는 간섭을 예측하기 힘들기 때문에 목표 BER을 만족시키면서 자원 할당을 하기 힘들게 되는 문제점이 있을 수 있다. 이런 다중 셀 환경에서도 목표 BER을 만족시키기 위해서, 효과적으로 자원 할당을 하는 기법을 제안하고, 이를 분석하였으며, 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증, 평가하였다. 본 논문의 결과는, 향후 OFDM 기반의 차세대 셀룰러 이동통신시스템의 성능 예측 및 자원할당기술 적용 시에 활용될 것으로 생각된다.

본 논문에서는 연계 빔형성과 비연계 빔형성 방법이 동시에 가능한 하이브리드 모드 빔형성 (HMB) 방법을 제안한다. HMB는 점근적으로 합 전송 증가율에 있어서 최적의 빔형성 방법임을 증명한다. 다양한 모의 실험을 통해서 HMB는 대칭 간섭 채널 환경에서 연계 빔형성 방법과 거의 동일한 성능을 달성함을 보인다. 또한, 보다 현실적인 비대칭적 간섭 채널 환경에서는 비대칭 채널 환경에서 연계 빔형성의 전력 비효율성으로 인한 성능의 저하를 갖지만, 연계 빔형성 방법보다는 우수한 성능을 갖는다는 것을 보인다.
