This paper presents a new and robust technique for a coarse frequency offset estimation in OFDM systems. As an evaluation of the proposed algorithm, we apply it to Eureka 147 DAB system. The proposed coarse frequency offset estimation algorithm is based on the differential detection technique between adjacent subcarriers to eliminate the phase shift effects of symbol timing offset and fractional frequency offset. A coarse frequency offset is determined from the correlation output between a received interarrier differential phase reference symbol and several locally generated but frequency-shifted intercarrier differential phase reference symbols. The performance of our estimation algorithm is evaluated by means of computer simulation and is compared with those of previous proposed algorithms for DAB transmission modes I, II, III, and IV. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm generates extremely accurate estimates with low complexity irrespective of the symbol timing offset.

In this paper self tuning control of interconnected systems are dealt in view point of large scale system control. The plant model is given in multiple ARMA process. This process is simplified as independent SISO ARMA process having offset terms. This offset was considered as effects of interconnections. In each decentralized system, self tuning controller with instrumental variable method is adopted. As a result, this algorithm enables the parameter estimation to be unbiased and non-drift. This controller contains a new implicit offset rejection technique. Simulation results considers well with the analysis in case of linear interconnection.

In an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing) system, the sampling frequency offset between the transmitter and receiver is known to cause the interchannel interference (ICI), resulting in performance degradation. In this paper, we propose two time-domain techniques to estimate the sampling frequency offset, especially for a high data-rate OFDM system. The first technique estimates the sampling frequency offset by using the phase difference between two received samples with a fixed amount of time interval, corresponding to the transmitted training symbol, under the assumption of perfect symbol and carrier offset synchronization. The second technique estimates the sampling frequency offset and carrier frequency offset jointly, when the two offsets exist together, by using two training symbols with different frequency components and using a sample algebraic calculation. The proposed estimation techniques for sampling frequency offset cause no time delay due to all time-domain processing, and have a good performance due to no ICI effect. The performances of the proposed techniques are demonstrated by various simulations.

Code division multiple access (CDMA) is a promising air interface technique for cellular systems. When an MS (Mobile Station) moves to an adjacent cell, the handoff between the serving cell and the target cell is needed. Compared with the hard handoffs, the soft handoffs between two CDMA channels with the identical frequency assignments and frame offsets can provide a better quality of service by minimizing the undesirable ping pong phenomenon of back-and forth handoffs between two adjacent cells in conventional hard handoffs. For the soft handoff of a call to an adjacent cell to be successful, the adjacent cell should assign to the call the same frame offset as that being used in the original cell by the call. In this paper, considering the assignment states of the frame offsets of the adjacent cells, a frame offset assignment algorithm for the originated call is proposed. And analytic method for the handoff blocking probability due to the lack of the frame offset capacity is also presented to show the advantage of the proposed algorithm with respect to the soft handoff blocking probability.

This paper presents a new orthogonal signals generator (OSG) with DC Offset rejection for implementing a phase locked loop (PLL) in single-phase grid-connected power systems. An adaptive filter (AF) based on the least mean square (LMS) algorithm is used to constitute the OSG in this study. The DC offset in the measured grid voltage signal can be significantly rejected in the developed OSG technique. This generates two pure orthogonal signals that are free from the DC offset. As a result, the DC offset rejection performance of the presented single-phase phase locked loop (SPLL) can be enhanced. A mathematical model of the developed OSG and the principle of the adaptive filter based SPLL (AF-SPLL) are presented in detail. Finally, simulation and experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed AF-SPLL.

This study proposes a novel random pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique with a constant switching frequency utilizing a random offset voltage. The proposed PWM technique spreads switching harmonics by varying the position of an active voltage vector without a switching frequency variation. The implementation of the proposed PWM technique is simple because it does not require additional hardware and complex algorithm. The proposed random PWM technique is compared with the conventional PWM technique on the factors of harmonic spectrum, total harmonic distortion, and harmonic spread factor to confirm the harmonic spread effect. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulations and experiments on a three-phase inverter drive system.

Previously fabricated electronic devices were used for vacuum manufacturing processes such as conventional semiconductor manufacturing. However, they are difficult to apply to continuous processes such as roll-to-roll printing, which results in very high device manufacturing and processing costs. Therefore, many developers have been interested in applying continuous processes to contact printing or noncontact printing technologies and they proposed various continuous printing techniques instead of conventional batch coating. In this paper, we proposed improved gravure offset printing process as one of the contact printing technique. We used etching pattern geometry with soft core blanket roll for printing of ultra fine line below the 10um.Using this technique we obtained flexible metal grid mesh film as transparent conductive film.

In precision instrumentation system, an A/D conversion of signal conditioning has been always suffered from some problems ; offset and drift voltage with environmental situation. This paper suggests a method of reducing the offset voltage and the drift error from the A/D conversion hardware using analog signal switching technique with specific operational amplifier circuits. Also, we have designed a hardware active filter and a software digital filter with Auto Zero Tracking algorithm for better dignal process of the our proposed weighing system. Software technique was performed to obtain the stable data from A/D converter. As a result of our experimental works, the proposed system is expected to be used in the industrial field where a high precision measurement is required.

It often occurs in J-R testing that some initial crack extension (.DELTA.a) data points have anomalous negative values. The reason for the apparent negative crack growth is due to the analysis method. The phenomenon as a possible source of error in determining $J_{IC}$ or J-R curve from partial unloading compliance experiments may be eliminated by the compliance correction equation or the offset technique. In this study, the correction methods are suggested and examined by the measurement of the actual crack length and $J_{JC}$ analysis.

This paper proposes a dc error compensation algorithm using dq-synchronous coordinate transform digital phase-locked-loop in single-phase grid-connected converters. The dc errors are caused by analog to digital conversion and grid voltage during measurement. If the dc offset error is included in the phase-locked-loop system, it can cause distortion in the grid angle estimation with phase-locked-loop. Accordingly, recent study has dealt with the integral technique using the synchronous reference frame phase-locked-loop method. However, dynamic response is slow because it requires to monitor one period of grid voltage. In this paper, the dc offset error compensation algorithm of the improved response characteristic is proposed by using the synchronous reference frame phase-locked-loop. The simulation and the experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed dc offset error compensation algorithm.
