In this paper we introduce the correlation-aided distributed sample acquisition (CDSA) scheme for fast cell search in IMT-2000 W-CDMA cellular system. The proposed scheme incorporates the state symbol correlation process into the comparison-correction based synchronization process of the original DSA scheme to enable fast acquisition even under very poor channel environment. for its realization, each mobile station (MS) has to store in its memory a set of state sample sequences. which are determined by the long-period scrambling sequences used in the system and the sampling interval of the state samples. CDSA based cell search is carried out in two stages : First, the MS first acquires the slot timing by using the primary synch code (PSC) and then identifies the igniter code which conveys the state samples of the current cell . Secondly. the MS identifies the scrambling code and frame timing by taking the comparison-correction based synchronization approach and, if the identification is not done satisfactorily within preset time. it initiates the state symbol correlation process which correlates the received symbol sequence with the pre-stored state sample sequences for a successful identification. As the state symbol SNR is relatively high. the state symbol correlation process enables reliable synchronization even in very low chip-SNR environment. Simulation results show that the proposed CDSA scheme outperforms the 3GPP 3-step approach, requiring the signal power of about 7 dB less for achieving the same acquisition time performance in low-SNR environments. Furthermore, it turns out very robust in the typical synchronization environment where large frequency offset exists.

In order to get high quality and high resolution image data from the space-borne camera system, the image chain from the sensor to the user in the ground-station need to be designed and controlled with extreme care. The behavior of the camera system needs to be controlled by ground commands to support on-orbit calibration and to adjust imaging parameters and to perform early stage on-orbit image correction, like gain and offset control, non-uniformity correction, etc. The operation status including the temperature of the sensor needs to be transferred to the ground-station. The preparation time of the camera system for imaging with specific parameters should be minimized. The camera controller needs to synchronize the operation of cameras for every channel and for every spectral band. Detail timing information of the image data needs to be provided for image data correction at ground-station. In this paper, the design of the camera controller for the AEISS on KOMPSAT-3 will be introduced. It will be described how the image chain is controlled and which imaging parameters are to be adjusted The camera controller will have software for the flexible operation of the camera by the ground-station operators and it can be reconfigured by ground commands. A simple concept of the camera operations and the design of the camera controller, not only with hardware but also with controller software are to be introduced in this paper.

In this paper, a zero torque control scheme adopting current sharing function (CSF) used in integrated Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drive with DC battery charger is proposed. The proposed control scheme is able to achieve the keeping position (KP), zero torque (ZT) and power factor correction (PFC) at the same time with a simple novel current sharing function algorithm. The proposed CSF makes the proper reference for each phase windings of SRM to satisfy the total charging current of the battery with zero torque output to hold still position with power factor correction, and the copper loss minimization during of battery charging is also achieved during this process. Based on these, CSFs can be used without any recalculation of the optimal current at every sampling time. In this proposed integrated battery charger system, the cost effective, volume and weight reduction and power enlargement is realized by function multiplexing of the motor winding and asymmetric SR converter. By using the phase winding as large inductors for charging process, and taking the asymmetric SR converter as an interleaved converter with boost mode operation, the EV can be charged effectively and successfully with minimum integral system. In this integral system, there is a position sliding mode controller used to overcome any uncertainty such as mutual inductance or DC offset current sensor. Power factor correction and voltage adaption are obtained with three-phase buck type converter (or current source rectifier) that is cascaded with conventional SRM, one for wide input and output voltage range. The practicability is validated by the simulation and experimental results by using a laboratory 3-hp SRM setup based on TI TMS320F28335 platform.

This paper proposes an adaptive pilot beacon equipment for mobile communication systems based on direct spread spectrum technology which generates the pilot channel for handoff between base stations by using the information acquired from the downstream wireless signal regarding the overhead channel information. Such an adaptive pilot beacon equipment will enable low power operation since among the wireless signals, only the pilot channel will be generated and transmitted. The pilot channel in the downstream link of the CDMA receiver is used to acquire time and frequency synchronization and this is used to calibrate the offset for the beacon, which implies that time synchronization using GPS is not required and any location where forward receive signal can be received can be used as the installation site. The downstream link pilot signal searching within the CDMA receiver is performed by FPGA and DSP. The FPGA is used to perform the initial synchronization for the pilot searcher and DSP is used to perform the offset correction between beacon clock and base station clock. The CDMA transmitter the adaptive pilot beacon equipment will use the timing offset information in the pilot channel acquired from the CDMA receiver and generate the downstream link pilot signal synchronized to the base station. The intermediate frequency signal is passed through the FIR filter and subsequently upconverted and amplified before being radiated through the antenna.

A Scene Based Technique(SBT) that corrects linear array infrared detector's nonuniformity is proposed. Basically, this technique dispenses with using temperature references on a linear array infrared detector. To correct the nonuniformity of infrared images, we use three methods. Firstly, we detect bad channels by using the information which is cumulated all the same line pixels. Secondly, a variable window method is applied to compensate more accurately. Thirdly, an adaptive method which updates gain and offset coefficient is used only on a stationary region. These results are demonstrated on a computer simulation with various images. As a result, the nonuniformity is corrected completely, so that images are enhanced and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) is improved much.

As the TC(time-current) curve corresponding to symmetrical time invariant RMS value has been traditionally chosen and used for setting the relay, it has caused the misoperation errors on relay coordination because of CT secondary current being actually an asymmetrical time varying RMS value. In this paper, an algorithm for calculating the relay operating time is developed to study the asymmetrical effect using the step-by-step method. We represent the relay operating time errors between with and without DC offset versus PSM(plug setting multiplier), TMS(time multiplier setting) and X/R ratio. And also we present the correction factor. Finally we confirm the validity of this technique through the case study.

OSMI(Ocean Scanning Multi-Spectral Imager) raw image data(Level 0) were acquired and radiometrically corrected. We have applied two methods, using solar & dark calibration data from OSMI sensor and comparing with the SeaWiFS data, to the radiometric correction of OSMI raw image data. First, we could get the values of the gain and the offset for each pixel and each band from comparing the solar & dark calibration data with the solar input radiance values, calculated from the transmittance, BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) and the solar incidence angle($\beta$, $\theta$) of OSMI sensor. Applying this calibration data to OSMI raw image data, we got the two odd results, the lower value of the radiometric corrected image data than the expected value, and the Venetian Blind Effect in the radiometric corrected image data. Second, we could get the reasonable results from comparing OSMI raw image data with the SeaWiFS data, and get a new problem of OSMI sensor.

Several studies have utilized physical models of the healthy nasal cavity to investigate the relationship between nasal anatomy and airflow. With our experiences of experimental investigations on nasal airflows in normal and abnormal nasal cavity models, we are going to deal with the topic that may contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of nasal diseases. In this paper, airflows in the normal and artificially deformed models, which simulate surgical treatment, are investigated experimentally by PIV. High-resolution CT data and careful surface rendering of computational model with the help of the ENT doctor provide more sophisticated nasal cavity models. The CBC PIV (Correlation Based Correction PIV) algorithm with window offset is used for PIV flow analysis. Average and RMS distributions in sagittal and coronal sections are obtained for inspiratory and expiratory nasal airflows. Comparisons in nasal airflows for both normal and deformed cases are also appreciated. In case of simulations of surgical operations, velocity and RMS distributions in coronal section changes locally, this may cause some difficulties in physiologic functions of noses and may hurt mucosal surface.
