In this paper, we propose a 16-QAM carrier recovery loop which is suitable for the implementation of Inmarsat M4 system receiver. Because the frequency offset of ${\pm}924\;Hz$ on signal bandwidth 33.6 kHz is recommended in Inmarsat M4 system specification, carrier recovery loop having stable operation in the channel environment with large relative frequency offset is required. the carrier recovery loop which adopts only PLL can't be stable in relatively large frequency offset environment. Therefore, we propose a carrier recovery loop which has stable operation in large relative frequency offset environment for Inmarsat M4 system. The proposed carrier recovery loop employed differential filter-based noncoherent UW detector which is robust to frequency offset, CP-AFC for initial frequency offset acquisition using UW signal, and 16-QAM DD-PLL for phase tracking using data signal to overcome large relative frequency offset and achieve stable carrier recovery performance. Simulation results show that the proposed carrier recovery loop has stable operation and satisfactory performance in large relative frequency offset environment for Inmarsat M4 system.

In this paper, a self-interference signal cancellation(SIC) circult for In-band Full-Duplex has been developed and tested in RF/analog region. By use of this SIC circuit, a FM two-way radio has been developed working at FRS(Family Radio Service) band. The two-way radio device is transmitting the FM modulated signal and demodulating the wanted FM signal at the same time. A circulator is used to enable a single antenna to transmit and receive simuultaenously. The receiver circuit needs to cancel out the self-interference signal due to the transmit signal. A vector modulator(VM) is used to control the phase and magnitude of the esitmated signal. And in-phase and quadrature correlators are used to figure out the optimal coefficients of the VM to remove the self-interference signal according to the change of channel environment. In this work, SA58646 has been used as the FM transceiver, and the system is tested with a frequency of 465 MHz and a bandwidth of 12.5 kHz FM signal. The output power is 17.2 dBm at the antenna port, and the self intererence signal level is measured -49.2 dBm at the receiver end. Therefore the SIC level is measured by 66.4 dB.

Spread spectrum provides the minimized inter-symbol interference, the low probability of intercept and the multiple access capability. This paper presents a direct sequence spread spectrum with carrier/timing recovery and equalizer which compensates the delay spread caused by multipath transmission. When the sea trials were performed in Korean East Sea, the bit error rates of QPSK and direct sequence spread spectrum are $1.46{\times}10^{-2}$ and $5.17{\times}10^{-4}$ at 3 km source-receiver range, respectively.

This paper presents a structure of the searcher using the space diversity in array antenna system operating in the DS/CDMA signal environments. The new technique exploits the fact that the In-phase and Quadrature components of interferers can respectively be viewed as independent Gaussian noise at each antenna element in most practical CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) signal environments. The proposed PN acquisition scheme is a single dwell serial PN acquisition system consisting of two stage, that is, the searching stage and the verification stage. The searching stage correlates the received signals with the local PN oscilator for obtaining the synchronous energy at the entire uncertainty region. The verification stage compares the searching energy with the optimal threshold, which is pre-designed in the Lock-Detector, and decides whether the acquisition is successful or fail. In this paper, we analyzed the relationship of both diversity order and the mean acquisition time. In general, It is known that the mean acquisition time decreases significantly as the number of antenna elements increases. But, the enhancement of the performance is saturated in terms of PN acquisition scheme. Therefore, to decrease the mean acquisition time, we must design the optimal array antenna system by considering the operating SNR range of the receiver, the detection probability, and the false alarm probability. The performance of the proposed acquisition scheme is analyzed in frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels. In this paper, the effect of the number of antenna elements on acquisition scheme is considered in terms of the detection probability, false alarm probability. and the mean acquisition time.

The wireless communication based on LDPC and adaptive spatial-subcarrier coded modulation using MQAM for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless transmission by using instantaneous channel state information and employing multiple antennas at both the transmitter and the receiver. Adaptive coded modulation is a promising idea for bandwidth-efficient transmission on time-varying, narrowband wireless channels. On power limited Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channels, low density parity check (LDPC) codes are a class of error control codes which have demonstrated impressive error correcting qualities, under some conditions performing even better than turbo codes. The paper demonstrates OFDM with LDPC and adaptive modulation applied to Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system. An optimization algorithm to obtain a bit and power allocation for each subcarrier assuming instantaneous channel knowledge is used. The experimental results are shown the potential of our proposed system.

Timing recovery loop composed of the Timing Error Detector(TED), loop filter and resampler is widely used for the timing synchronization in MQASK receivers. Since TED is sensitive to the delay between the symbol period of the signal and sampling period, the output is averaged out when the symbol rate and sampling rate are quite different the recovery loop cannot work at all. This paper presents a sampling frequency discriminator (SRD), which detects the frequency offset of the sampling clock to the symbol clock of the MQASK data transmitted. Employing the SRD, the closed loop timing recovery scheme performs the frequency-aided timing acquisition and achieve the synchronization at extremely high sampling frequency offset, which can be used in variable symbol rate MQASK receivers.

The PSK carrier signal recovery circuit using multi-layer coupled line was analyzed and designed. The fabricated carrier recovery 6 port element with multi-layer coupled line structure gets the simple architecture. It is possible to implement the carrier signal recovery circuit of the same structure with the multi-layer six port phase correlator of the direct receiver front-end. Based on the analysis of RML carrier recovery circuit using the multi-layer coupled line 6-port phase correlator, the multi-layer coupled line carrier signal recovery structure for multi-mode coherent demodulation was proposed. The fabricated multi-layer coupled line carrier signal recovery circuit for quadrature phase shift-keying shows a good carrier signal characteristic with a constant phase and phase error below ${\pm}3o$.

SOQPSK-TG is a modulated signal for aircraft telemetry with excellent frequency efficiency and power efficiency. In this paper, the phase waveform of the partial response SOQPSK-TG modulation is linearly approximated and modeled as a full response double duobinary SOQPSK (SOQPSK-DD) signal. And using the XTCQM method and the Laurent decomposition method, the SOQPSK-DD signal was approximated as OQPSK having linear pulse waveforms, and the results of the two methods were proved to be the same. In addition, it was confirmed that the Laurent decomposition waveform of the SOQPSK-DD signal approximates the Laurent decomposition waveform of the original SOQPSK-TG signal. And it was shown that the decision feedback IQ-detector, which applied the Laurent decomposition waveform of SOQPSK-DD to the detection filter, exhibits almost the same performance even with a simpler waveform than before.

In the OFDM system, IQ imbalance problem happens at the RF front-end of transceiver, which degrades the BER(bit error rate) performance because it affects the constellation in the received signal. Also, phase noise is generated in the local oscillator of transceivers and it destroys the orthogonality between the subcarriers. Conventional PNS algorithm is effective for phase noise suppression, but it is not useful anymore when there are jointly IQ(In-phase and Quadrature) imbalance and phase noise. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the effect of IQ imbalance and phase noise generated in the down-conversion of the receiver. Then, we estimate and compensate the IQ imbalance and phase noise at the same time. Compared with the conventional method that IQ imbalance after IFFT is estimated and compensated in front of FFT via the feedback, this proposed method extracts and compensates effect of IQ imbalance after FFT stage. In case IQ imbalance and phase noise exist at the same time, we can decrease complexity because it is needless to use elimination of IQ imbalance in time domain and training sequences and preambles. Also, this method shows that it reduces the ICI and CPE component using adaptive forgetting factor of MMSE after FFT.

Loop-loop electromagnetic (EM) survey in frequency domain has been carried out in order to provide basic solution to geotechnical applications. Source and receiver configuration may be horizontal co-planar (HCP) and/or vertical co-planar (VCP). Three quadrature components of mutual impedance ratio for each configuration are used to construct the subsurface image. For the purpose of obtaining the model response and validating the reasonable performance of the inversion, we obtained each responses of two-layered and three-layered earth models and two-dimensional (2-D) isolated anomalous body. The response of 2-D isolated anomalous body has been calculated using extended Born approximation for the solution of 2.5-D integral equation describing EM scattering problem. As a result of the least-squares inversion with variable Lagrangian multiplier, we could construct more resolvable image from HCP data than VCP data. Furthermore, joint inversion of HCP and VCP data made better stability and resolution of the inversion. Resistivity values, however, did not exactly match the true ones. Loop-loop EM field data was obtained with EM34-3XL system manufactured by Geonics Ltd. (Canada). Electrical resistivity survey was conducted on the same line for the comparison in advance. Since the constructed image from loop-loop EM data by 2-D inversion algorithm showed almost similar resistivity distribution to that from electrical resistivity one, we expect the developed 2.5-D loop-loop EM inversion program can be applied for the reconnaissance site survey.
