Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technologies provide additional dimensions of freedom with spectral and spatial resources for radio resource management. Multi-dimensional radio resource management has recently been identified to exploit the full dimensions of freedom for more flexible and efficient utilization of scarce radio spectrum while provide diverse quality of service (QoS) guarantees. In this work, a multi-dimensional radio resource scheduling scheme is proposed to achieve above goals in hybrid orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and space division multiple access (SDMA) systems. Cochannel interference (CCI) introduced by frequency reuse under SDMA is eliminated by frequency division and time division between highly interfered users. This scheme maximizes system throughput subjected to the minimum data rate guarantee. for heterogeneous users and transmit power constraint. By numerical examples, system throughput and fairness superiority of the our scheduling scheme are verified.

An evaluation method for oxygen permeable characteristics of the membrane covering to each cathode of multiple cathode - single anode type dissolved oxygen sensor, which has high reproducibility and is capable of measuring multiple components in solutions. For this purpose, a measuring circuit for the multiple cathode type DO sensor was designed to lower the noise signal by adapting a digital LPF to readout the sensor output accurately. Digital LPF is designed by setting up the transfer function to set the cutoff frequency to 10Hz, and the transfer function is programmed by C language, and then the filtering characteristics are evaluated with the simulation and experiments. Using this LPF added measuring circuit for the multiple cathode type DO sensor, we have obtained the calibration factor for each cathode to calibrate the variation of the output signals. The calibration factor was obtained by measuring the sensor output signal followed by oxygen partial pressure, using the same oxygen permeable membrane at each cathode of the multiple cathode type DO sensor.

Energy efficiency is one of the most critical concerns for wireless sensor networks. By allowing sensor nodes in close proximity to cooperate in transmission to form a virtual multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) system, recent progress in wireless MIMO communications can be exploited to boost the system throughput, or equivalently reduce the energy consumption for the same throughput and BER target. However, these cooperative transmission strategies may incur additional energy cost and system overhead. In this paper, assuming that data collectors are equipped with antenna arrays and superior processing capability, energy efficiency of relevant traditional and cooperative transmission strategies: Single-input-multiple-output(SIMO), space-time block coding(STBC), and spatial multiplexing(SM) are studied. Analysis in the wideband regime reveals that, while receive diversity introduces significant improvement in both energy efficiency and spectral efficiency, further improvement due to the transmit diversity of STBC is limited, as opposed to the superiority of the SM scheme especially for non-trivial spectral efficiency. These observations are further confirmed in our analysis of more realistic systems with limited bandwidth, finite constellation sizes, and a target error rate. Based on this analysis, general guidelines are presented for optimal transmission strategy selection in system level and link level, aiming at minimum energy consumption while meeting different requirements. The proposed selection rules, especially those based on system-level metrics, are easy to implement for sensor applications. The framework provided here may also be readily extended to other scenarios or applications.

In this paper, we focus on the total transmission power minimization problem for downlink beamforming multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems while ensuring each user's QoS requirement. Although the linear integer programming (LIP) solution we formulate provides the performance upper bound of the margin adaptive (MA) optimization problem, it is hard to be implemented in practice due to its high computational complexity. By regarding each user's equivalent channel gain as approximate independent values and using iterative descent method, we present a heuristic MA resource allocation algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm efficiently converges to the local optimum, which is very close to the performance of the optimal LIP solution. Compared with existing space division multiple access (SDMA) OFDM systems with or without adaptive resource allocation, the proposed algorithm achieves significant performance improvement by exploiting the frequency diversity and multi-user diversity in downlink multiple-input single-output (MISO) OFDM systems.

This paper presents a new approach for fault diagnosis in three-level neutral point clamped inverters. The proposed method is based on the average values of the positive and negative parts of normalized output currents. This method is capable of detecting and locating multiple open-circuit faults in the controlled power switches of converters in half of a fundamental period of those currents. The implementation of this diagnostic approach only requires two output currents of the inverter. Therefore, no additional sensors are needed other than the ones already used by the control system of a drive based on this type of converter. Moreover, through the normalization of currents, the diagnosis is independent of the load level of the converter. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed diagnostic technique are validated by experimental results obtained under steady-state and transient conditions.

Circuit configurations for realizing of biquadratic current transfer functions using current conveyors (CCIIs) are presented. The circuits are composed of three multiple-output CCIIs and four passive elements (two resistors and two grounded capacitors), and when current controlled conveyors (CCIIs) in place of CCIIs are employed, the circuit can be realized using three multiple-output CCIIs and two grounded capacitors. Use of grounded capacitors is suitable for integrated implementation. The cutoff frequency of a realized filter with current gain K can be tuned independently of Q by the value of K.

This paper is concerned with the computer design of the multiple-output switching functions by using the improved MASK method in order to obtain the paramount prime implicants (prime implicants of the multiple-output switching function) and new algorithm to design the optimal logic network. All the given minterms for each function are considered as minterms of one switching function to simplify the desigh procedures. And then the improved MASK method whose memory requirement and time consuming are much less than any existing known method is applied to identify the paramount prime implicants. In selecting the irredundant paramount prime implicants, new cost criteria are generated. This design technuque is suitable both for solving a problem by hand or programming it on a digital computer.

In the design of PLA's of VLSI, as the number of subsets of functions from which common preme implicants must be determined increases, the execution time increases by a factor of O(2\ulcorner. When the number of functions N is a large number, this poses a serious problem in minumization of multiple-output logic functions. In this paper a new algorithm that minimizes multiple-output logic functions is proposed. The algorithm requires less number of Fortran statements, less execution time, and less memory area than existing methods. The bases of this algorithm are explained and verified, and the sequential operation for preparation of the program is discussed.

본 논문에서는 Perfect Shuffle 기법과 Kronecker 곱에 의한 다치 신호처리회로의 입출력 상호연결에 대하여 논하였고, 다치 신호처리회로의 입출력 상호연결 방법을 이용하여 유한체 GF$(p^m)$상에서 다치 신호처리가 용이한 다치 Reed-Muller 전개식의 회로설계 방법을 제시하였다. 제시된 다치 신호처리회로의 입출력 상호연결 방법은 모듈구조를 기반으로 하여 행렬변환을 이용하면 회로의 가산게이트와 승산게이트를 줄이는데 매우 효과적임을 보인다. GF$(p^m)$상에서 다치 Reed-Muller 전개식에 대한 다치 신호처리회로의 설계는 GF（3）상의 기본 게이트들을 이용하여 다치 Reed-Muller 전개식의 변환행렬과 역변환행렬을 실행하는 기본 셀을 설계하였고, 다치 신호처리회로의 입출력 상호연결 방법을 이용하여 기본 셀들을 상호연결하여 실현하였다. 제안된 다치 신호처리회로는 회선경로 선택의 규칙성, 간단성, 배열의 모듈성과 병렬동작의 특징을 가지므로 VLSI 화에 적합하다
