In this paper, the error rate performance of DS/SSMA system in multipath fading channel is calculated by computer simulation. At first, the multipath fading channel is modeled with TDL(Tap Delay Line) model. The characteristics of channels, including multipath fading effects and error pattern, are examined by doppler frequency and signal bandwidth, and time spread variation. Using the multipath fading channel model, the error rateperformance of block code and convolutional code is compared, thus the coding sys- tem is applied to the DS / SSMA system. The BER results of DS / SSMA system show that the proposed receiver gives about 2~3[dB] improve- ment compared with the conventional receiver.

In this paper, a new nonlinear predictor using general regression neural network(GRNN) is proposed for the subband coding of moving pictures. The performance of a proposed nonlinear predictor is compared with BMA(Block Match Algorithm), the most conventional motion estimation technique. As a result, the nonlinear predictor using GRNN can predict well more 2-3dB than BMA. Specially, because of having a clustering process and smoothing noise signals, this predictor well preserves edges in frames after predicting the subband signal. This result is important with respect of human visual system and is excellent performance for the subband coding of moving pictures.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid transceiver for underwater acoustic communication, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater channel environments. It is designed in the digital domain except for amplifiers and implemented by using a multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) system. The digital modulation technique is quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) and frame synchronization is an energy (non-coherent) detection scheme based on the quadrature receiver structure. DSP implementation is based on block data parallel architecture (BDPA). We shaw experimental results in th? underwater anechoic basin at KRISO. The results indicate that the frame synchronization is performed without PLL. Also, we shaw that the adaptive equalizer can compensate frame synchronization error and the correction capability is dependent on the length of equalizer.

When doing maintenance works at the trackside of railway, the method which delivers information on approaching of train to maintenance workers through alarm devices such as the flag or indication light, etc., is being used by locating persons in charge of safety alarm in addition to the maintenance workers at fixed distances in the front and rear of the workplace. Workers maintaining at the trackside may collide with the train since they cannot recognize the approach of train although it approaches to the vicinity of maintenance workplace because of the sensory block phenomenon occurred due to their long hours of continued monotonous maintenance work. The clash or rear-end collision accidents between many maintenance trains called motor-cars can be occurred since there are cases where the signal systems for safe operation of motor-car such as track circuit etc. are blocked or not operated normally. We developed the new safety equipment for protection of trackside maintenance workers using radio frequency signals and bidirectional detection mechanism. The developed safety equipment must analyze the several operational mechanism for each different operation situations. In this paper the analysis results are represented.

Smart card system is being used in many countries to improve access to their transportation systems. Especially for subway system that typically see high volumes of passengers at specific times of the days, it's critical to find a ray to collect fares without unnecessarily delaying passengers. The card consists of antenna, modulation and demodulation block, power supply module and memory. The antenna receives the power and data signal from reader. The FRAM is used as the inner memory. And it is a non-volatile memory and complements the problems, that is high consumption and low data processing speed, of using conventional EEPROM in the passive smart cart. In this paper, we analyze and design the RF passive smart card to apply to the fare collection for the subway gate system.

In this paper, the narrow-band characteristic, which is the disadvantage of the existing the PD sensor, was improved by transforming the sensor shape into a trapezoidal shape to improve the characteristics of the dipole-shaped conventional PD(Patial Discharge) sensor. In addition, by applying a cavity structure, which is a structure that can fundamentally block the electromagnetic wave signal from the outside as it is used for an external sensor, it is a partial discharge sensor that takes advantage of the structural advantages of low cost and convenience of installation. As a result of the experiment, it was shown that there is a broadband characteristic of about 70.5%(1.59~3.32GHz) at the center frequency of 2.45GHz, and the broadband characteristic was confirmed.

In this paper, we present our proposed magnetic induction based wireless communication system. The proposed system is designed to perform communication as well as distance measurement in underground environments. In order to improve the communication quality, we propose and implement the adaptive channel compensation technique. Based on the fact that the channel may be fast time-varying, we keep track of the channel status each time the data is received and accordingly compensate the channel coefficient for any change in the channel status. By using the proposed compensation technique, the developed platform can reliably communicate over distances of 10m while the packet error rate is being maintained under 5%. We also implement the distance measurement block that is useful for various applications that should promptly estimate the location of nearby nodes in communication. The distance between two nodes in communication is estimated by generating a table describing pairs of the magnetic signal strength and the corresponding distance. The experiment result shows that the platform can estimate the distance of a node located within 10m range with the measurement error less than 50cm.

Batteries are being used in ESS, electric vehicles and uninterruptible power backup systems. Lead-acid batteries are the most used batteries for high capacity power back up equipment due to their high reliability and low price advantages. It is very important to estimate the chargeable capacity(SoH), and many algorithms were proposed to estimate the internal resistance of the battery. In this paper, the Battery Monitoring System(BMS) for high capacity uninterruptible power supply for IDC is proposed. A simple algorithm for estimating internal resistance was proposed. An computational block diagram of the proposed signal processing algorithm and BMS system configuration of CPU and analog circuit were shown. The proposed method was proved useful by presenting data examples of application to actual IDC sites.

The charge redistribution digital-to-analog converter(CR-DAC) is often used for successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter(SAR ADC) that requiring low power consumption and small circuit area. However, CR-DAC is required 2 to the power of N unit capacitors to generate reference voltage for successive approximation of the N-bit SAR ADC, and many unit capacitors occupy large circuit area and consume more power. In order to improve this problem, this paper proposes SAR ADC using series capacitor DAC. The series capacitor DAC is required 2(1+N) unit capacitors to generate reference voltage for successive approximation and charges only two capacitors of the reference generation block. Because of these structural characteristics, the SAR ADC using series capacitor DAC can reduce the power consumption and circuit area. Proposed SAR ADC was designed in CMOS 180nm process, and at 1.8V supply voltage and 500kS/s sampling rate, proposed 6-bit SAR ADC have signal-to-noise and distortion ratio(SNDR) of 36.49dB, effective number of bits(ENOB) of 5.77-bit, power consumption of 294uW.

This paper presents an implementation method of Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) decoder using a general-purpose multicore Digital Signal Processor (DSP), TMS320C6670. Although the DSP provides some useful coprocessors such as turbo decoder, fast Fourier transformer, Viterbi Coprocessor, Bit Rate Coprocessor etc., it is specific to the base station platform implementation not the mobile terminal platform implementation. This paper shows an implementation method of the LTE-A PDSCH decoder using programmable DSP cores as well as the coprocessors of Fast Fourier Transformer and turbo decoder. First, it uses the coprocessor supported by the TMS320C6670, which can be used for PDSCH implementation. Second, we propose a core programming method using DSP optimization method for block diagram of PDSCH that can not use coprocessor. Through the implementation, we have verified a real-time decoding feasibility for the LTE-A downlink physical channel using test vectors which have been generated from LTE-A Reference Measurement Channel (RMC) Waveform R.6.
