This paper presents improvement of the reception noise suppression method during formation flights of aircraft. Since aircraft communication equipment is very important for flight mission and safety to perform the functions of internal/external communications, it is required to implement noise-free, clean communication quality, and transmitting/receiving functions. Therefore, the FTA (Fault Tree Analysis) analysis and failure search were performed on the reception noise, and the internal noise of the intercom that affected the reception noise and the none-transmition phenomenon was identified. We changed the multiple grounds of the intercom to a single ground and applied an improved method of filtering the DC Offset voltage. As a result, the voice quality of the communication system of the aircraft was improved through the reduction of the reception noise during formation flights, and it was verified by ground and flight tests.

The error rate pquations of digital radio signals transmitted throught the Nakagami's m-distribution fading channel have been both for nondiversity reception and for diversity reception cases in the environmment of Gaussin noise. Using the derived equation. erro rate performance has been evaluated and represented in figures as a function of carrier to noise ratio, fading figure, and the power correlation coefficient between two diversity branches. By comparing the diversity reception case with nondiversity reception case. We could measure the amount of error rate performance improvenment of digital radiosignals in fanding enviroment.

The error probability of QPSK and DPSK signals with diversity reception technique in m-distribution fading plus impulsive noise environments has been derived and the error probability is evaluated and compared with that in Gaussian noise environment. The error performance degrades as impulsive noise becomes strong and degree of degradation of signal performance in QDPSK signal is larger than that in QPSK signal. The diversity reception technique can improve the error performance not only in fading plus Gaussian noise environment but in fading plus impulsive noise environment. When diversity reception technique is used, the improvement of error performance attains about 10dB to 15dB in terms of CNR as compared with that in non diversity reception. Among diversity techniques the maximal ratio combining is must effective. When diversity reception and coding techniques are used together in impulsive noise plus Rayleigh fading environments, the improvement of error performance attains about 12dB to 15dB in terms of CNR as compared with that of only diversity reception technique case and the improvement of error perform- ance in RS coding attains about 2dB in terms of CNR as compared with that of BCH coding case.

This paper presents and analyzes field test results of Equalization Digital On-Channel Repeater (EDOCR) using ATSC(Advanced Television Systems Committee) terrestrial digital TV broadcasting system. In the field test, according to EDOCR On/Off, types of antennas and receivers we measured reception possibility, C/N(Carrier to Noise Ratio), reception power, noise and input margin at each test point. By the field test results, the reception rate of the receiver manufactured in 2004 was $33\%$ when EDOCR is off and directional antenna is used. However, the reception rate was $100\%$ when EDOCR is on. In addition, the noise margin, which determines reception quality was increased at least 6 dB, so that it is capable of constructing SFN(Single Frequency Network) using the EDOCR.

The corona noise level at the place 10m and the frequency 1MHz from the new 345KV transmission line is 72dB in the maximum rain-fall and 63dB due to the wet conductors. The synthesized corona noise level of all 3 phases dominantly depends on the phase which has maximum corona level among them. The measured characteristic of the variation with distance from the line coincided well with the theoretically calculated value in this paper. The corona noise level was the highest level in rainy weather or snow-fall. It takes a few hours, for the corona noise to be stable after a rain-fall or snow-fall. The measured value of the corona noise level corresponds quite well with the formula for the corona noise level revision. It was necessary to quantize S/N ratio into radio reception quality for the radio interference due to the transmission line. Some regulations for radio reception quality were defined through long term experiments and ratings by ITU, IEEE comittee, NHK in Japan and others. Fixing our own regulation about radio reception quality should be required.

In this paper, the performance improvement of BFSK signal by using diversity reception and coding technique in Rayleigh fading and impulsive noise environments has been evaluated and compared with that in Gaussian noise environment. It is found that as the CNR increases, BFSK signal performance shows an error floor regardless of impulsive noise effects in Rayleigh fading environment. Also diversity reception technique can improve the error performance not only in a Gaussian noise environment but also in a fading and impulsive noise environment. When diversity reception and coding techniques are used together in impulsive noise and Rayleigh fading environment, the improvement of error performance becomes about 11[dB] in terms of CNR as compared with that of only coding technique is applied.

DTV has a great advantage as compared to Analog TV in picture quality under low reception field strength. Various high quality tuners have been developed to result in much smaller Noise Figure of the receivers and many trials for receiving DTV signal through indoor antenna. In this paper, results of intensive field tests on the indoor reception of DTV are presented. Tests were carried out around Seoul-Gyeonggi Metropolitan area. Commercial directional and omni-directional antennas and 5th generation receiver were used for reception availability tests. The effects of heights, locations, and types of the house as well as the distance to the transmitter on the reception performances are analyzed. Our test results will be applied to improve the indoor reception environment of DTV.

This paper presents and analyzes field test results of distributed translator (DTxR) for distributed frequency network (DFN) in the ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) terrestrial digital TV broadcasting system. In the field test, according to types of antennas and receivers in areas where are overlapped by two DTxRs' coverage, we measured reception power, noise margin reception possibility, and ease of reception at each test point. By the field test results, when two DTxRs are on, reception power and noise margin are increased than when one DTxR is on. However, reception rate and ease of reception are similar or increased according to types of receivers.

In this paper, a low-noise amplifier is designed and fabricated using the HJFET for the reception of the Ku-band satellite broadcast signals. The optimum input and output reflection coefficients of each amplifier stage are obtained by the trade-off between the stable gain and the noise figure circle. The amplifier performance is simulated and optimized using a microwave CAD software. The designed amplifier is fabricated and tested. Results of the test show a gain of 17.0 dB, a gain flatness of less than $\pm$2.BdB, the noise figure of less than 1.0 dB, and the input and output reflection coefficient of less than -10 dB.
