  • In this paper, we propose a new fast carrier recovery algorithm for high-order QAM systems. The proposed algorithm detects carrier frequency offset from the phase differences among the received symbols directly and combines it with the conventional carrier recovery, so that it is possible to achieve the carrier recovery with wide tracking range and fast acquisition time. Simulation results show that the proposed carrier recovery method reduces acquisition time at large frequency offset and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

  • This paper describes a effective information compressor algorithm for the fourth industrial technology. One of the difficult problems for outdoor is to obtain effective updating process of background images. Because input images generally contain the shadows of buildings, trees, moving clouds and other objects, they are changed by lapse of time and variation of illumination. They provide the lowering of performance for surveillance system under outdoor. In this paper, a effective information algorithm for variable environment variable under outdoor is proposed, which apply the Kalman Estimation Modeling and adaptive threshold on pixel level to separate foreground and background images from current input image. In results, the better SNR of about 3dB~5dB and about 10%~25% noise distribution rate in the proposed method. Furthermore, it was showed that the moving objects can be detected on various shadows under outdoor and better result Information.

  • 본 연구는 폐쇄된 임의의 공간상에서 2개의 마이크로폰 어레이를 이용하여 마이크로폰에 수신된 신호들의 도착 시간차를 추정하는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 입력 음성신호를 Discrete wavelet transform을 이용하여 인간의 청각 특성과 가장 유사한 주파수 해상도를 갖도록 대역 분할한 후 각 주파수 대역에서 신호 대 잡음비를 구하여 신호 대 잡음비가 가장 높은 대역만 선택적으로 취하고 해당 대역에서만 최종적인 시간 지연 값을 추정하게 된다. 최종 시간 지연 측정에 사용된 알고리즘은 기존의 CPSP에 해당 대역의 주파수 SNR을 가중치로 주어 구하게된다. 이러한 대역 분할 가중방식은 다양한 형태의 동적인 잡음 환경 하에서 안정적인 성능을 가질 수 있다. 제안된 알고리즘은 저주파와 고주파 각각의 모의 잡음환경 하에서 컴퓨터 실험을 통해 성능을 입증하도록 한다.

  • This paper presents a way to maximize transmission efficiency and reception ability through transmission diversity technology, which can be adapted to wireless multimedia Wireless LAN system. The presented method is a comparative analysis between a case where parameter a for time average is 0.3.1 with consideration of channel presumption with two types of rms delayed spread, which is 50nsec. 150nsec, for the performance analysis of STTC (Space-Time Trellis Code) adopting time-space ciphering method appropriate for MIMO channel, and performance in the case where presumed channel value from long training column section is applied to according frame in a single frame. The result showed that BER brought SNR improvement of l.0dB in $10^{-3}$ when a was 0.3 than adopting only the long training column, and showed increase of general performance improvement for the sake of time average rather than the case without.

  • 본 논문에서는 레이더(Radar)나 소나(Sonar) 시스템 등에서 중요하게 여겨왔던 신호의 방위각 추정기법들은 신호원의 수를 정확히 알아야 한다는 문제점이 있었다. 이러한 문제점들을 최근에는 빠른 수렴속도를 가지는 칼만 필터를 사용하여 신호원의 정보 없이 잡음 부공간을 성공적으로 추정하는 방법을 제안하게 되었는데 이 방법은 중간대 이상의 신호대 잡음비(SNR)가 유지되는 경우 신호의 정보 얼이 DOA를 추정할 수 있는 것으로 평가되어왔다. 그러나 이러한 알고리즘은 임펄스성 잡음이 섞인다면 성능저하를 가져을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 칼만 필터를 바탕으로 한 MUSIC 알고리즘에 시변메모리인자와 후버 영향 함수를 도입하여 임펄스 잡음에 강인한 DOA 추정알고리즘을 제안한다.

  • This paper deals with the performance improvement by eliminating loop interference signal and inserting adaptive equalizer for phase compensation in OFDMA based Wibro relay station. The Wibro relay station is used for the extension of communication service area and for throughput improvement of base station. The loop interference is important factor of performance determination of relay station when transmitter and receiver is very closely located. In order to design interference canceller, we generated base-band OFDMA signal and then transmitted the signal along with pilot tones alined with two different combinations for training mode. And then, we generated received fading signal due to the loop interference added noise to the received signal. In the receiver, the transmitted signal is recovered by elimination of the interference signal with channel estimate and compensating phase by adaptive equalizer. The performance improvement was verified by computer simulation which show channel estimation, constellation of signal and BER characteristics according to the variation of SNR ratio.

  • The geometrical and electrical errors of array sensors can severely degrade the performance of array sensor system. Various calibration techniques are developed to alleviate this problem. In this paper, two different calibration methods with respect to location, gain and phase of array sensors are presented. One method applies the first-order Taylor series expansion to approximate the true steering vector from the nominal values of array sensors. Then a set of equations is formed by using the null characteristics of the MUSIC spectrum to estimate errors of location, gain and phase of array sensors. Another method estimates these errors based on the data covariance matrix of pilot sources. From the simulations, it is demonstrated that two calibration algorithms calibrated an array system successfully. In addition to that, Fistas and Manikas's algorithm is more robust against noise than Ng and Lie's one when SNR is from 10dB to 50dB.

  • In this paper, we derive the optimum number of users which can maximize the information theoretic sum capacity in multiuser OFDM virtual MIMO uplink system. In which, there are multiple antennas at the base station and a number of users with single transmit antenna. Pilot-assisted channel state estimation is assumed for a block fading channel and time-varying fading channel. We analyze the tradeoff between the multiplexing gain and pilot overhead especially in low SNR regime and conclude that the optimum number of users is min ($N_r$,LT/2 ) in frequency nonselective block fading channel and approximately equal to min ($N_r$, ${\lfloor}{\sqrt{LT+1}}-1{\rfloor}$) in time varying fading channel. assuming the same pilot and signal pwoer.

  • In this Paper, a new DCT HLMS DFE(Discrete Cosine Transform Hierarchical Least Mean Square Decision Feedback Equalizer) algorithm is proposed to improve the convergence speed and MSE(Mean Square Error) performance of a receive channel equalizer in ATSC(Advanced Television System Committee) 8VSB(Vestigial Side Band) digital terrestrial TV system. The proposed algorithm reduces the eigenvalue range of input data autocorrelation by transforming LMS (Least Mean Square) DFE into the subfilter of hierarchical structure. Moreover, the use of DCT and power estimation algorithm makes it possible to reduce the eigenvalue deviation of input data which results from distortion and delay of the receive signal in the miulti-path environment. Simulation results show that proposed DCT HLMS DFE has SNR improvement of approximately 3.8dB, 5dB and 2dB as compared to LMS DFE when the equalized symbol error rate is 0.2 in ATTC defined digital terrestrial TV broadcasting channels A, B and F, respectively.
