The purpose of this study is to develop precise point positioning (PPP) algorithms based on GLONASS code-pseudorange, verify their performance and present their utility. As the basic correction models of PPP, we applied Inter Frequency Bias (IFB), relativistic effect, satellite antenna phase center offset, and satellite orbit and satellite clock errors, ionospheric errors, and tropospheric errors that must be provided on a real-time basis. The satellite orbit and satellite clock errors provided by Information-Analytical Centre (IAC) are interpolated at each observation epoch by applying the Lagrange polynomial method and linear interpolation method. We applied Global Ionosphere Maps (GIM) provided by International GNSS Service (IGS) for ionospheric errors, and increased the positioning accuracy by applying the true value calculated with GIPSY for tropospheric errors. As a result of testing the developed GLONASS PPP algorithms for four days, the horizontal error was approximately 1.4 ~ 1.5 m and the vertical error was approximately 2.5 ~ 2.8 m, showing that the accuracy is similar to that of GPS PPP.

In this paper, a filter is proposed to compensate droop of the CIC filter for SDR. The proposed compensation filter has almost linear-phase characteristic, requires low operational complexity, and is cost-effective due to its second-order characteristic and lowest operational rate in the baseband.. Especially, it compensates droop in the passband with little performance degradation in the stopband. It is shown, by a design example and its performance analysis, that the proposed compensation method gives performance enhancement in communication systems. It is also shown that the proposed method is superior to conventional ones in view of memory usage and computational load.

A compact phase interpolator (PI) based spread spectrum clock generator (SSCG) for electromagnetic interference (EMI) reduction is presented. The proposed SSCG utilizes a digitally controlled phase interpolation technique to achieve triangular frequency modulation with less design complexity and small power and area overhead. The novel SSCG can generate the system clock with a programmable center-spread spectrum range of up to +/- 2 % at 200 MHz, while maintaining the clock duty cycle ratio without distortions. The PI-based SSCG has been designed and evaluated in 0.18-um 1.8-V CMOS technology, which consumes about 5.0 mW at 200MHz and occupies a chip size of $0.092mm^2$ including a DLL.

In this paper, we propose a inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) rotational motion compensation(RMC) method to remove residual blurring caused by non-uniform rotational motion of a target. First, a range bin having an isolated scatterer is selected. Next, polynomial phase signal in the selected range bin is estimated by using both Fourier transform(FT) and polynomial-phase transform(PPT). Finally, a new slow time variable that uniformly samples radar signal along the aspect angle directions is defined by using the estimated phase signal, and we interpolate radar signal in terms of the new time variable. As a result, rotational motion to blurr ISAR images is removed, and focused ISAR images are obtained. Simulation results using battleship model validate the robustness and effectiveness of our proposed RMC method.

In this paper, we investigate the design of three low-complexity joint estimation algorithms(LJEAs) for frequency offset and carrier phase. The proposed LJEAs are based on the interpolation technique of correlation values of the received signal in frequency and phase domains. With these algorithms, the estimation ranges $\Delta$f$_{d}$${\times}$T$_{s}$ . are less than 1/2N$_{s}$ , and 1/N$_{s}$ which are comparable to conventional algorithms. The Proposed LJEAs require only 2N$_{s}$ or 4N$_{s}$ complex multiplications which are very simple compared with the conventional algorithms. Nevertheless the estimation accuracies of the LJEAs are as good as those of the conventional algorithms. Suitable areas of application include joint estimation of frequency offset and carrier phase in burst-mode digital transmission such as satellite communications.

In this paper we describe current activities on the project Multi-Scale Modeling and Analysis of convective boiling (MSMA), conducted jointly by the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and the Swiss Nuclear Utilities (Swissnuclear). The long-term aim of the MSMA project is to formulate improved closure laws for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations for prediction of convective boiling and eventually of the Critical Heat Flux (CHF). As boiling is controlled by the competition of numerous phenomena at various length and time scales, a multi-scale approach is employed to tackle the problem at different scales. In the MSMA project, the scales on which we focus range from the CFD scale (macro-scale), bubble size scale (meso-scale), liquid micro-layer and triple interline scale (micro-scale), and molecular scale (nano-scale). The current focus of the project is on micro- and meso-scales modeling. The numerical framework comprises a highly efficient, parallel DNS solver, the PSI-BOIL code. The code has incorporated an Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) to tackle complex geometries. For simulation of meso-scales (bubbles), we use the Constrained Interpolation Profile method: Conservative Semi-Lagrangian $2^{nd}$ order (CIP-CSL2). The phase change is described either by applying conventional jump conditions at the interface, or by using the Phase Field (PF) approach. In this work, we present selected results for flows in complex geometry using the IBM, selected bubbly flow simulations using the CIP-CSL2 method and results for phase change using the PF approach. In the subsequent stage of the project, the importance of effects of nano-scale processes on the global boiling heat transfer will be evaluated. To validate the models, more experimental information will be needed in the future, so it is expected that the MSMA project will become the seed for a long-term, combined theoretical and experimental program.

This paper presents a novel hall sensor fault detection and fault-tolerant control method for a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive system. A phase locked loop (PLL) type position estimator is used with a conventional interpolation based rotor position estimator to reduce position errors due to misalignment of hall sensors. The expected trigger time of hall sensor's output is used for detecting hall sensor fault condition and the PLL type position estimator is reconfigured for fault-tolerant control at the hall sensor fault condition. The proposed method can minimize current ripples during the transition from sensored control using hall sensors to sensorless control. Experimental results have been proposed to prove the validity of the proposed method.

In this paper, a low cost magnetic position sensor for linear position detection is proposed. The proposed magnetic sensor can be applied to the linear motor which has stator with periodical teeth, such as transverse flux linear motor(TFLM). Sine and cosine waves can be generated from the unit sensor module as the linear motor moves, and the outputs can be converted to the position data by interpolation IC. To reduce the speed ripple caused by the position error, the Luenberg observer is introduced. The validity of the proposed magnetic position sensor is verified by experiment with a 750N three-phase TFLM.

The study is concerned with the coupled analysis of heat transfer and thermoelastoplastic deformation. The thermoelastoplastic model is very useful for the analysis of residual stress and the analysis of thermal stress as well as the analysis of metal forming. Heat of deformation, phase transformation and contact heat transfer boundary are considered. The contact heat transfer boundary is treated by the interpolation of shape function. The analysis of deformation and the analysis of heat transfer are carried out for the could upsetting and the hot rolling. The computed results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental results.

In this paper, we psresent a new scheme to synthetically generate a HPO digital hologram for a three-dimensional image that is modelled as the horizontally stacked two-dimensional images. The proposed method transforms a lightwave field into the angular spectrum of planewaves, which enables this method to use FFT routines, rather than using numerous arithmetic calculations. Hence, this method may be able to not only lead to the dramatically less computation but provide relatively excellent performances due to the phase error-free transformation. We present sampling constraints and implementaton procedure to obtian a hololine for each image and also point out the necessity of interpolation. Simulatioj results are presented to show the comparison with the conventional method in terms of computation time and performances, including the behaviors resulting form the different selection of parameter values to be used in the interpolations.
