본 논문에서는 컨투어렛 변환 영역 상에서 저작권 보호, 인증 및 변형 검출 등을 위한 다중 목적의 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 컨투어렛 변환은 웨이블릿 변환보다 다방향성의 에지 및 부드러운 윤곽선 검출 성능이 보다 우수하여 제안한 방법에서는 4레벨 라플라시안 피라미드와 2 레벨 방향성 필터 뱅크를 이용한 컨투어렛 변환 영역 상에서 워터마크를 삽입한다. 먼저 제안한 방법의 첫 번째 단계에서는 저작권 보호를 위한 강인성 워터마킹 기법으로 워터마크 비트에 따라 원 패턴의 시퀀스를 생성하여, 이들 시퀀스 형태로 방향성 고주파 대역의 평균 계수 대역 내에 투영한다. 그리고 투영된 계수들의 분산 분포에 워터마크 비트를 각각 삽입한다. 그리고 두 번째 단계에서는 인증 및 변형 검출을 위한 준연약성 워터마킹 기법으로써, 최상위 레벨의 저주파 대역 내에 이진 워터마크 영상을 적응적 양자화기에 의하여 삽입한다. Checkmark 2.1를 이용한 평가 실험에서 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법에 비하여 강인성 및 비가시성이 보다 우수함을 확인하였다.

A multi-code biorthogonal code keying (MBCK) system consists of multiple waveform coding blocks, and the sum of output codewords is transmitted. Drawback of MBCK is that it requires amplifier with high linearity because its output symbol is multi-level. MBCK with constant amplitude precoding block (CA-MBCK) has been proposed, which guarantees sum of orthogonal codes to have constant amplitude. The precoding block in CA-MBCK is a redundant waveform coder whose input bits are generated by processing the information bits. Redundant bits of constant amplitude coded CA-MBCK are not only used to make constant amplitude signal but also used to improve the BER performance at the receiver. In this paper, we proposed a transmission scheme which combines CA-MBCK with $Q^2PSK$ modulation to improve bandwidth efficiency of CA-MBCK and also uses chip interleaving to maintain a constant amplitude feature of CA-MBCK. bandwidth efficiency of a proposed transmission scheme is increased fourfold. And the BER performance of the scheme is same as that of CA-MBCK.

In this work, first, a multiuser detection (MUD) algorithm based on component-level soft interference cancellation and linear minimum mean square error (CLSIC-LMMSE) is proposed, which can enhance the bit error ratio (BER) performance of the traditional SIC-LMMSE-based MUD by mitigating error propagation. Second, for non-binary low density parity check (NB-LDPC) coded high-order modulation systems, when the proposed algorithm is integrated with partial mapping, the receiver with iterative detection and decoding (IDD) achieves not only better BER performance but also significantly computational complexity reduction over the traditional SIC-LMMSE-based IDD scheme. Extrinsic information transfer chart (EXIT) analysis and numerical simulations are both used to support the conclusions.

In this paper, a hardware prototype for the 10kVA 11-level MMC was built and various experimental works were conducted to verify the operation algorithms of MMC. The hardware prototype was designed using computer simulation with PSCAD/EMTDC software. After manufactured in the lab, the hardware prototype was tested to verify the modulation algorithms to form the output voltage, the balancing algorithm to equalize the sub-module capacitor voltage, and the redundancy operation algorithm to improve the system reliability. The developed hardware prototype can be utilized for analyzing the basic operation and performance improvement of MMC according to the modulation and redundancy operation scheme. It also can be utilize to analyze the basic operational characteristics of HVDC system based on MMC.

본 논문에서는 실내 비방향성 분산채널에서 비동기 다중전송률 광무선 펄스위치변조기법을 적용한 부호분할다원 접속 시스템을 제안한다. 부호분할다원접속을 위한 시그너쳐 시퀀스로는 광직교부호를 사용하고, 비트오류률을 향상시키기 위해 간섭제거기법을 적용한다. PPM-CDMA은 전력효율이 다른 변조기법에 비해 우수하고, 고정된 펄스구간에 대해 변조레벨을 변화시켜 다중전송률 서비스를 제공하는 데에 용이하다. 본 논문에서 제안한 다중전송률 PPM-CDMA 시스템은 각 전송률에 대해 칩전송률 및 샘플링 시간을 변화시키지 않으므로써 전체 시스템 구조를 단순화할 수 있다.

In this paper, we explore a low-complex bandwidth allocation (BA) scheme with multi-level service guarantees in VLC-OFDM systems. Effective capacity theory, which evaluates wireless channel capacity from a novel view, is utilized to model the system capacity under delay QoS constraints of the link layer. Since intensity modulation of light is used in the system, problems caused by frequency selectivity can be neglected. Then, the BA problem can be formulated as an integer programming problem and it is further relaxed and transformed into a concave one. Lagrangian formulation is used to reformulate the concave problem. Considering the inefficiency of traditional gradient-based schemes and the demand for distributed implementation in local area networks, we localize the global parameters and propose a quasi-distributed quadratic allocation algorithm to provide two-level service guarantees, the first level is QoS oriented, and the second level is QoE oriented. Simulations have shown the efficient performance of the proposed algorithm. The users with more stringent QoS requirements require more subcarriers to guarantee their statistical delay QoS requirements. We also analyze the effect of subcarrier granularity on the aggregate effective capacity via simulations.

Medium voltage drive systems driven by high-power multi-level inverters operating at low switching frequency can reduce the switching losses of the power device and increase the output power. Employing subsection synchronous current harmonic minimum pulse width modulation (CHMPWM) technique can maintain the total harmonic distortion of current at a very low level. It can also reduce the losses of the system, improve the system control performance and increase the efficiency of DC-link voltage accordingly. This paper proposes a subsection synchronous CHMPWM approach of active neutral point clamped five-level (ANPC-5L) inverter under low switching frequency operation. The subsection synchronous scheme is obtained by theoretical calculation based on the allowed maximum switching frequency. The genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted to get the high-precision initial values. So the expected switching angles can be achieved with the help of sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm. The selection principle of multiple sets of the switching angles is also presented. Finally, the validity of the theoretical analysis and the superiority of the CHMPWM are verified through both the simulation results and experimental results.

This paper proposes fast millimeter-wave (mm-wave) beam training protocols with receive beamforming. Both IEEE standards and the academic literature have generally considered beam training protocols involving exhaustive search over all possible beam directions for both the beamforming initiator and responder. However, this operation requires a long time (and thus overhead) when the beamwidth is quite narrow such as for mm-wave beams ($1^{\circ}$ in the worst case). To alleviate this problem, we propose two types of adaptive beam training protocols for fixed and adaptive modulation, respectively, which take into account the unique propagation characteristics of millimeter waves. For fixed modulation, the proposed protocol allows for interactive beam training, stopping the search when a local maximum of the power angular spectrum is found that is sufficient to support the chosen modulation/coding scheme. We furthermore suggest approaches to prioritize certain directions determined from the propagation geometry, long-term statistics, etc. For adaptive modulation, the proposed protocol uses iterative multi-level beam training concepts for fast link configuration that provide an exhaustive search with significantly lower complexity. Our simulation results verify that the proposed protocol performs better than traditional exhaustive search in terms of the link configuration speed for mobile wireless service applications.
