In this paper the reverse link of the GLOBALSTAR-the representative CDMA LEO satellite system and LEO mobile satellite channel are developed by the SPW software simulation tool. And the performance of the system is evaluated. GLOBALSTAR is designed to give cellular-type service to hand-held user terminals through a constellation of 48 LEO satellites in circular orbites with 1414 Km altitude. Since LEO mobile satellite system communicates with mobile unit, it is suffered from severe multipath fading and shadowing. The fast mobility of LEO satellites makes the channel condition time vering. So, the LEO mobile satellite channel is different from land mobile channels. In this unique LEO satellite channel, it is shown that the performance of the GLOBALSTAR reverse link is varied according to the elevational angle, but this variation is overcome by satellite path diversity.

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation can severely weaken the accuracy of ranging and localization in wireless location systems. NLOS bias mitigation techniques have recently been proposed to relieve the NLOS effects, but positively rely on the capability to accurately distinguish between LOS and NLOS propagation scenarios. This paper proposes an energy-capture-based NLOS identification method for LDR-UWB systems, based on the analysis of the characteristics of the channel impulse response (CIR). With this proposed energy capture method, the probability of successfully identifying NLOS is much improved than the existing methods, such as the kurtosis method, the strongest path compare method, etc. This NLOS identification method can be employed in adaptive modulation scheme to decrease bit error ratio (BER) level for certain signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The BER performance with the adaptive modulation can be significantly enhanced by selecting proper modulation method with the knowledge of channel information from the proposed NLOS identification method.

In this paper the Individual tap - Least Mean Square(IT-LMS) algorithm is applied to the adaptive multipath channel equalization using hybrid-type Genetic Algorithm(GA) for achieving lower minimum Mean Squared Error(MSE). Owing to the global search performance of GA, LMS-type equalizers combined with it have shown preferable performance in both global and local search but those still have unsatisfying minimum MSE performance. In order to lower the minimum MSE we investigated excess MSE of IT-LMS algorithm and applied it to the hybrid GA equalizer. The high convergence rate and lower minimum MSE of the proposed system give us reason to expect that it will perform well in practical multi-path channel equalization systems.

본 논문에서는 청소로봇이 두 점간에 이동할 때 벽면을 안전하게 추적하는 방법과 두 점간의 이동 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 제안한 방법은 각각의 적외선 센서에 다른 가중치 벡터를 부여하여 장애물이나 벽면에 대한 정보를 이용하게 된다. 청소로봇은 벽면정보를 이용하여 벽면 주행하게 했다. 그리고 두 점검간의 이동알고리즘으로 이동 할 경우에 벽면 추적 방법과 각도 오차 값과 거리의 error값이 오차가 0이 되도록 두 점간의 이동 알고리즘의 수식의 대수적인 합으로 안전하게 벽면을 주행하였다. Visual C++기반에서 시뮬레이션 한 결과 안전하게 벽면을 추적하고 벽면을 따라 주행하는 벽면주행 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

The main drawback of filtered-X LMS(FXLMS) algorithm for the ANC of broadband noises is its low convergence speed when the filtered reference signals are strongly correlated, producing a large eigenvalue spread in correlation matrix. This correlation can be caused either by autocorrelation of the signals of the reference sensors, or by coupling between the error path which introduces intercorrelation in the filtered reference signals. In this paper, we introduce a transform domain FXLMS(TD-FXLMS) algorithm that has a high convergence speed by orthogonal transform's decorrelation properties.

This paper investigates the direct and adaptive control of mechatronic servo systems using modified chaotic neural networks (CNNs). For the performance evaluation of the proposed neural networks, we simulate the trajectory control of the X-Y table with direct control strategies. The CNN based controller demonstrates accurate tracking of the planned path and also shows superior performance on convergence and final error comparing with recurrent neural network(RNN) controller.

In order to improve trial-and-error based conventional practices for optimizing forming processes, a direct design method to guide iterative design practices, called the ideal forming theory, has been previously developed. In the theory, material elements are required to deform following the minimum Plastic work Path. The theory can be used to determine the ideal initial blank shape needed to best achieve a specified final shape while resulting in optimum strain distributions. In this work, the direct design method based on the ideal forming theory was applied to design initial design shape for VCR deck chassis. Based on the solution of the ideal forming theory, FEM analysis was utilized to evaluate an optimum blank shape to be formed without tearing. Simulation results are in good agreement with experimental data. It was shown that the proposed sequential design procedure based on direct design method and FEM can be successfully applied to optimize the die design Procedure of sheet metal forming processes.

The problem of establishing the servo system to reach the desired location keeping all features in the field of view and following a straight line is considered. In addition, robustness of camera calibration parameters is considered in this paper. The proposed approach is based on switching from position-based visual servoing (PBVS) to image-based visual servoing (IBVS) and allows the camera path to follow a straight line. To achieve the objective, a pose estimation method is required; the camera's target pose is estimated from the obtained images without the knowledge of the object. A switched control law moves the camera equipped to a robot end-effector near the desired location following a straight line in Cartesian space and then positions it to the desired pose with robustness to camera calibration error. Finally simulation results show the feasibility of the proposed visual servoing technique.

We demonstrate a next-generation high-capacity mobile fronthaul based on radio over fiber (RoF) technology, which links between a digital unit and a radio unit supporting two frequency assignments and $2{\times}2$ multiple input, multiple output antennas. To confirm the technical feasibility of a mobile fronthaul, we experimentally investigate its down- and uplink end-to-end performances including the optical and radio frequency (RF) signal path. Frequency-dependent performance deviations, error vector magnitude variations, overall system performance variations caused by optical to electrical conversion, and intermediate frequency to RF conversions are examined. Experimental verifications on multiple LTE uplink signals are performed for the first time. We also demonstrate several commercial mobile Internet services, YouTube video streaming, and file transfers using off-the-shelf mobile devices, through a mobile fronthaul based on RoF.
