We demonstrate a distributed fiber sensor system based on spatially-selective Brillouin scattering, using a single laser diode as a light source whose optical frequency is directly modulated by the injection current. The pump and the counter-propagating probe lights, which are sinusoidally frequency-modulated, are superposed in the fiber so that stimulated Brillouin scattering takes places only at a specific location along the fiber. Brillouin gain peak position is controlled by varying the modulation frequency. Distributions of Brillouin shift frequency are measured for the case of concatenated optical fibers of two different kinds and also for the case of temperature distribution. The temperature coefficient of the Brillouin shift frequency is measured to be $1.33MHz/^{\circ}C$.

This work presents a study on development of a practical and quantitative technique for assessment of the structural health condition by Piezoelectric impedance-based technique associated with longitudinal wave propagation method. The bolt fastening condition is adjusted by torque wrench. In order to estimate the damage condition numerically, three damage indices, impedance peak frequency shift ${\Delta}F$, peak amplitude ratio $\delta$ and quality factor ratio $\gamma$, are proposed in this paper. Furthermore, an assessment method is described for estimation of the damage by using these three damage indices.

Recently, the global automobile industry is aiming for a transition from internal combustion locomotives to zero-emission vehicles. Electric vehicles powered by battery energy can operate at peak performance and improve fuel economy by applying multiple motors or multi-speed transmissions. In order to design a two-speed transmission, it is necessary to evaluate and analyze the application system and performance of electric vehicles. In this study, control performance optimization of a twostage battery electric vehicle equipped with an AMT-based automatic transmission was performed and performance according to control pattern changes was analyzed. In order to improve the operating efficiency of the motor, the shift control that sets the optimal operating point according to the vehicle speed and required torque was derived from the motor efficiency map. The performance of battery energy consumption and transmission loss energy according to the hysteresis interval was analyzed and optimized. The hysteresis interval applied to the optimal shift map acted as a factor in reducing the frequency and loss of shifts. It has been shown that keeping the hysteresis interval at about 4 km/h can reduce energy consumption while reducing the number of shifts.

The alternative binary offset carrier (AltBOC) signal shares frequency spectrum with the phase shift keying (PSK) signal, enabling us to manage the satellite communication spectrum more efficiently. However, the side-peaks in the AltBOC autocorrelation pose an ambiguity in the AltBOC signal tracking, and consequently, makes the frequency sharing via the AltBOC difficult. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a cancellation scheme of the AltBOC correlation side-peaks. From the numerical results, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme removes the ambiguity in signal tracking caused by the side-peaks completely, and thus, has a much lower tracking error standard deviation (TESD) (i.e., a much better tracking performance) than the conventional scheme.

In this paper, we propose a Progressive scalable video coding algorithm using frequency weighting in the DCT domain. Since the human visual system (HVS) can be modeled as a nonlinear point transformation, called the modulation transfer function (MTF), we tan use the frequency weighting matrix to enhance the video image quality. We change this frequency weighting matrix into the frequency shift matrix to apply to the bit-plane coding method for the fine granular scalable (FGS) video coding We also define a new error metric JNDE (just noticeable difference) to measure the perceptual image quality in terms of human vision.

Using a single-line pulsed laser beam is well known as a useful noncontact method to generate a directional surface acoustic wave. In this method, different laser beam energy profiles produce different waveforms and frequency characteristics. In this paper, we considered two typical kinds of laser beam energy profiles, Gaussian and square-like, to find out a difference in the frequency characteristics. To achieve this, mathematical models were proposed first for Gaussian laser beam profile and square-like respectively, both of which depended on the laser beam width. To verify the theoretical models, experimental setups with a cylindrical lens and a line-slit mask were respectively designed to produce a line laser beam with Gaussian spatial energy profile and square-like. The frequency responses of the theoretical models showed good agreement with experimental results in terms of the existence of harmonic frequency components and the shift of the first peak frequencies to low.

In this paper, a frequency changeable antenna using dual half wavelength loaded line structure is proposed for multiband mobile handset applications. The proposed antenna has a capability of independent frequency shift by controlling two added inductance values in two different bands. Experimental results indicate that the proposed antenna provides enough effective bandwidth to cover $CELLULAR(824\sim894\;MHz)$, $EGSM(880\sim960\;MHz)$, $DCS1800(1,710\sim1,880\;MHz)$, $PCS1900(1,850\sim1,990\;MHz)$ and $WCDMA(1,920\sim2,170\;MHz)$ bands and peak gain variation is only 0.54 dB.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has high peak to power ratio (PAPR). High PAPR makes problems such as signal distortion and circuit cost increasing. To solve the problemsm several PAPR reduction methods have been proposed. However, synchronization and orthogonality in OFDM systems may be a limitation to reduce latency for 5G networks. Generalized frequency division multiplexing (GFDM) is one of the possible solutions for asynchronous and non-orthogonal systems, which are more preferable to reduce the latency. However, multiple subsymbols in GFDM result in more superposition in time domain, GFDM has higher PAPR. Selective mapping (SLM) is one of PAPR reduction techniques in OFDM, which uses phase shift. The PAPR of GFDM SLM is compared to conventional GFDM and OFDM SLM in terms of PAPR reduction enhancement via numerical simulations. In addition, the out-of-band performance is analyzed in the aspect of asynchronous condition interference.

Design criteria far a block code which guarantees minimized PAPR of the OFDM signals are proposed in this paper. Encoding procedure of the minimum PAPR codes (MPC) is composed of searching a seed codeword, circular shifting the register elements, and determining codeword inversion. It is shown that the PEP is invariant to the circular shift of register elements and codeword inversion. Based on such properties, systematic encoding rule for MPC is proposed. In addition proposed encoding rule can reduced greatly the size of look up table for MPC.
