The noise temperature of existing millimeter-wave receivers is already within two or three times quantum noise limit. One of practical ways to increase the observation speed of single dish radio telescope without longer integration time is use of multi-beam focal plane array receiver as demonstrated in several large single dish radio telescopes. In this context the TRAO (Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory), which operates a 143n Cassegrain radio telescope, is planning to develop a 4 x 4 beams focal plane array SIS receiver system for 86-115 GHz band. Even though millimeter-wave HEMT LNA-based receivers approach the noise temperature comparable to the SIS receiver at W-band, it is believed that the receiver based on SIS mixer seems to offer a bit more advantages. The critical part of the multi-beam array receiver will be sideband separating SIS mixers. Employing such a type of SIS mixer makes it possible to simplify the quasi-optics of receiver. Otherwise, an SSB filter should be used in front of the mixer or some sophisticated post-processing of observation data is needed. In this paper we will present a preliminary design concept and components needed for the development of a new 3 mm band multi-beam focal plane array receiver.

무선인지(cognitive radio) 시스템은 특정 대역에 면허권을 갖는 주사용자(primary user)의 유휴 스펙트럼을 부사용자(secondary user)가 기회적으로 사용하는 것을 허용하는 것으로 주파수 부족 문제의 해결책으로 부각되고 있다. 특히, 스펙트럼 센싱(spectrum sensing) 기술은 특정 스펙트럼을 사용하고자 하는 부사용자가 주변에서 해당 스펙트럼을 사용 중인 주사용자를 검출하는 것으로 무선인지 시스템의 핵심을 이룬다. 기존의 스펙트럼 센싱 기술은 부사용자가 주사용자 송신기를 센싱하지만 부사용자가 주사용자 수신기를 센싱할 수 있다면 주사용자에 미치는 간섭을 최소화하고 스펙트럼 사용 효율을 최대화할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 수신기 중심(receiver-centric) 스펙트럼 센싱 기술을 제안하고 성능 분석을 통해 기존의 송신기 중심스펙트럼 센싱 기술에 비해 주파수 효율 측면에서 성능 개선이 있음을 검증한다.

Cognitive radio is a paradigm for wireless communication in which either network of wireless node itself changes particular transmission or reception parameters to execute its tasks efficiently without interfering with the licensed users. This paper represents a performance of the cognitive radio technology on dual polarized MIMO system using six-port receiver. Six-port technology is well known direct conversion receiver. In this paper, a six-port phase discriminator based polarization signal separation is shown. That is, the SER(Symbol Error Rate) performance is improved using polarization separator and simple receiver architecture is proposed applying six-port receiver. The six-port technology has priority to adapt changeable frequency system and variable environments for cognitive radio. In general, dual polarized MIMO system has good capacity and quality using polarization separator [1].

본 논문에서는 추적식 태양광 발전 시스템에 응용하기 위한 태양 위치 측정용 전파 센서 수신기의 설계, 제작 및 성능 실험에 관한 과정 및 결과를 소개한다. 먼저, 전파 센서에 대한 요구 성능인 ${\pm}5^{\circ}$ 이내의 위치 측정 오차 범위를 만족시키기 위한 수신기의 사양을 구하였고, 이를 토대로 수신기를 설계하였다. 설계된 수신기의 시스템 이득 및 잡음 지수의 budget 분석을 통해 설계의 적절성을 점검하였으며, 이 결과를 활용하여 수신 주파수 5.1 GHz, 대역폭 104 MHz로 69 dB의 시스템 이득과 0.46 K 이내의 수신 감도를 갖는 고이득, 고감도 광대역 수신기를 제작하였다. 제작된 수신기와 표준 혼 안테나로 구성된 전파 센서로 흐린 날 실제 태양을 대상으로 실험한 결과, ${\pm}4^{\circ}$ 이내의 오차 범위로 태양의 위치를 실시간으로 측정하는데 성공하여 요구 성능이 만족되었음을 검증하였다.

In this paper, a software-based Digital Radio Modiale(DRM) receiver is implemented on a Digital Signal Processor(DSP). DRM stands for the European radio broadcasting standard to bring AM radio into digital radio, designed to work at frequencies below 30MHz. DRM can offer various data services such as text messaging and slideshow services as well as audio services. The DRM receiver implemented on the Tensilica DSP core performs well at low signal strength indication of -102dBm.

In this time, as an industrial society developed to a welfare society, more and more people want their quality of lives upgraded and specially customized service by mass production/mass consumption. And it leads to an increase of requiring service. There're active developments and studies on various IT equipment as the requirement made IT devices used in service. In this paper, we try to design and realize radio paging DID by using smart device to be used as a receiver of a radio pager which is broadly used at face to face service. Firstly, we used MCU to design and implement Wireless Calling Gateway which change radio calling signal of ISM band to smart device. A receiver of wireless caller used original receiver module. Also it used bluetooth module to communicate with smart device. It was possible to have satisfactory communication since radio paging signal converter and smart device were linked in 3M. Secondly, to indicate various paging information delivered from a radio pager, we realized DID application program by using Smart PAD. As a result, we could indicate various information compared to an original receiver which only could indicate letters or numeric data. Secondly, we implemented the DID app for wireless calls that can display a variety of information sent from a wireless pager. Was implemented using the Smart Pad. As a result, it is shown that can display a variety of information than the existing receiver.

본 논문에서는 AMPS 수신기에게 전파 간섭을 야기시킬 소출력 무선기기의 방사 전계강도를 예측하였다. 제시된 전계 강도 수치는 상호변조 간섭을 일으키지 않을 방사량의 상한치가 되며, 그 수치는 79.13[$dB{\mu}V/m$]이었다. 이 상한치의 타당성을 보이고자 상호변조에 근거된 이론 제시, AMPS 수신기의 모델링, 및 해당 IC에 대한 측정을 수행하였다. 그 결과 삼자 간의 수치들은 허용된 범위 내에서 잘 일치됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

This work summarizes the current state of the art in software radio for 4G systems. Specifically, this work demonstrates that classic radio structures, e.g., heterodyne reception, homodyne reception, and their improved implementations, are inadequate selections for multi-mode reception. This opens the door to software defined radio, a novel reception architecture which promises ease in multi-band, multi-protocol design. The work presents the many advantages of such an architecture, including flexibility, reduced cost via component reduction, and improved reliability via, e.g., the elimination of environmental instability. The work also explains the limitations that currently curtail the widespread use of SDR, including issues surrounding A/D converters, management of software and power, and clock generation. This provides direction for future research to enable the broad applicability of SDR in 4G cellular and beyond.

In this paper, the efficiency of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) wireless power transfer systems is examined. Closed-form solutions for the receiver loads that maximize either the total efficiency or the efficiency for a specific receiver are derived. They are validated with the solutions obtained using genetic algorithm (GA) optimization. The optimum load values required to maximize the total efficiency are found to be identical for all the receivers. Alternatively, the loads of receivers can be adjusted to deliver power selectively to a receiver of interest. The total efficiency is not significantly affected by this selective power distribution. A SIMO system is fabricated and tested; the measured efficiency matches closely with the efficiency obtained from the theory.

This paper describes an estimation of DOA(Direction Of Arrival) measurement system using DBF receiver with linear array antenna. This DBF receiver is composed of resistive FET mixer using low IF mettled. A radio frequency(RF), a local oscillator(LO) and ail intermediate frequency(IF) considered in this research are 2.09 GHz, 2.08 GHz and 10 MHz, respectively. This receiver is composed of a band-pass filter, a low-pass filter, a DC bias circuit. DOA measurement system is consist of linear array antenna, DBF receiver, AD control box and computer in the anechoic chamber. Receiving antenna is 4-array monopole antenna and DBF receiver is 4-Ch resistive FET mixer without amplifier. DOA algorithm is implemented using MUSIC algorithm with high resolution. We show that the results of DOA is $-30^{\circ},\;0^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$, respectively. And we know that DOA estimation error occur by antenna radiation pattern and fabrication error of antenna array.
