Digital communication channels are imparied by linear effects such as dispersion, ISI(intersymbol Interference), fading phenomenon etc. But, the practical channel equalization system is required to design for compensating the nonlinear distortion caused by harmonic distortion etc. This paper is a study on the performance of nonlinear channel equalization using RBF(Radial Basis Funclion) network, which has the equivalent structure to the optimal Basian filter. Expecially, the variance of RBF network is modifiedby nonlinear polynomial filters to compare the convergence characteristic of nonlinear channel equalization. Experimental results show that the modified RBF network achieves the faster convergence property than conventional RBF network. Moreover, the RBF network ofhigher order variance modified represents the better performance than that of lower order variance in the bandpass channels and second/third order polynomial channels.

By using a selective learnable self-organizing feature map(SOFM) a more practical and generalized mehtod is proposed in which the effective nonlinear shape restoration is possible regardless of the existence of the distortion modelss. Nonlinear mapping relation is extracted from the distorted imate by using the proposed selective learning SOFGM which has the special property of effectively creating spatially organized internal representations and nonlinear relations of various input signals. For the exact extraction of the mapping relations between the distorted image and the original one, we define a disparity index as a proximal nmeasure of the present state to the final idealy trained state of the SOFM, and we used this index to adjust the training of the mapping relations form the weights of the SOFM. Simulations are conducted on various kinds of distorted images with or without distortion models, and the results show that the proposed method is very efficeint very efficient and practical in nonlinear shape restorations.

The demand of image compression is increasing now for the integration of medical images into the hospital information system. Even though the quantitative distortion can be measured from the difference between original and reconstructed images, it doesn't include the nonlinear characteristics of human visual system. In this study, we have evaluated the nonlinear characteristics of human visual system and applied them to the compression of medical images. The distortion measures which reflect the characteristics of human visual system has been considered. This image compression procedure consists of coding scheme using JND (Just Noticeable Difference) curve, polynomial approximation and BTC (Block Truncation Coding). Results show that this method can be applied to CT images, scanned film images and other kinds of medical images with the compression ratio of 5-10:1 without any noticeable distortion.

본 논문에서는 비선형 전력증폭기(PA:power amplifier)의 AM/PM 비선형 왜곡특성을 포함하는 군 지연을 보상하는 새로운 등화기를 제안한다. 군 지연 특성은 각 주파수 성분에 따라 서로 다르게 나타나는 상수가 아닌 비선형 시간지연이다. 전력증폭기에서 발생되는 AM/PM 특성으로 인한 위상 왜곡 현상은 군 지연을 증가시키는 주요한 요인이다. 이러한 군 지연 왜곡으로 신호 성상도에서 신호는 퍼지면서 회전하게 된다. 위와 같은 문제점을 고려하여 각 주파수 성분에 따라 다르게 나타나는 비선형 시간지연을 정적인 군지연으로 구분하고, PA의 AM/PM 특성인 입력신호 크기에 따라서 위상 천이가 다르게 발생하는 것을 동적인 군 지연으로 구분한다. 정적인 군 지연은 주파수 영역에서 Type-Based 방법으로 위상 왜곡을 추정 및 보상하고 동적인 군 지연은 시간영역에서 위상회전을 보상한다. 제안된 군 지연 보상기법으로 전력증폭기의 AM/PM 특성을 포함한 군 지연 특성을 충분히 보상할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

진동판 변위의 비선형적 운동에 의해 발생하는 스피커의 비선형왜곡은 음질을 열화시킨다. 이러한 비선형왜곡은 저주파 대역의 경우 주로 스피커의 지지부의 강성과 force factor의 비선형 특성에 의해 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 진동판 변위에 따라 변화하는 스피커의 비선형 강성과 비선형 force factor를 2차함수로 모델링하고 각각의 계수를 결정하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 진동판에 질량을 부가하여 동작점을 이동시키는 기계적인 방법을 사용하여 강성과 force factor 간의 커플링을 배제하였으며, 여러 동작점에서의 공진주파수를 측정함으로써 비선형 강성의 계수를 추출하였다. 비선형 force factor의 계수는 공진주파수에서 스피커에의 입력전압, 입력전류, 그리고 진동판 변위를 측정하여 얻은 그래프를 curve fitting 함으로써 구하였다.

This paper proposes LUT based predistorter using interpolater to reduce nonlinear distortion which was generated by HPA. We minimized performance degradation from the reduced LUT size with linear interpolation. We updated LUT using LMS algorithm using input data as reference data. As a result, it is shown that when the size of the LUT is 8, linear interpolation is the most outstanding performance in the view of performance and H/W complexity.

An adaptive predistorr is proposed to compensate for the nonlinear distortion of a high power amplifier (HPA) in 16 QAM system. It fumed out that the proposed predistorter using a variable step-size least mean square (VSSLMS) algorithm is stable and can reduce the Total Distortion (TD) to 0. 1dB at the HPA output backoff=0.0 dB.

In this thesis, to cope with severe intersymbol interference and nonlinear distotions of the digital magnetic recording channel a neural decision feedback equalizer (NDFE) and an adaptive neural equalizer (NE) are applied. The digital magnetic recording channels with various recording densities and different types of the nonlinear distortions are considered. The computer simulation shows that as the nonlinear distortion is increased, the neural equalizers (NdFE, NE) have advantages of approximately 2-4 dB in signal to noise ratio (SNR) over the onventional eualizers to reach sme bit error rate and, a sthe recording density is increased, 1~5 dB of SNR improvement are also gained. Especially the NdFE gives a superior performance over the other equalizers when there is a severe nonlinear distortion in the digital magnetic channel.

High power amplifier (HPA), which is used in transmitter of wireless communication systems, usually works in near saturation point in order to achieve maximum efficiency. In this region, HPA can introduce undesirable nonlinear effects. In this paper, we present a polynomial modeling method for efficient techniques to compensate for nonlinear distortion introduced by nonlinear HPA. Proposed polynomial predistorter inverses actual amplifier. Namely, we derive polynomials of amplifiers from analytical method and the electrical parameters in the data sheet of an actual amplifier and then can derive polynomial predistorter by inversing them. It is an effective and a simple method to compensate nonlinear distortion. SSPA(Solid-state power amplifier) is considered. We also analyze the effects of predistortion on the SER performance of communication system with 16-QAM modulation format. The results have shown the efficiency of this model.
