In this paper, the performance of stepped serial search scheme and matched filter scheme for code acqusition in FH / CDMA are evaluated under land mobile radio communication channel environments. And delay lock loop scheme is used as code tracking system. As the results for code acquisition system, it is shown that the performance of stepped searial scheme is superior to matched filter scheme, because system complexity is reduced and system performance is improved by increasing the hopping frequency not to substitute for special hardware. Also, it is shown that its performance is improved under Rayleigh/ Rician fading environments. As the results for code tracking system, it is found that mean hold time is increased due to the increase of the number of lock state and hopping frequency, M.

In IEEE 802.15.4a IR-UWB (Impulse Radio Ultra Wideband) systems, it is crucial to acquire initial carrier/timing synchronization and estimate channel response by exploiting the SYNC symbols embedded in each packet. On the other hand, it is also crucial to detect the SFD pattern followed by the header and data symbols to reliably extract the information contained in the packet. In this paper, we propose a reliable SFD detection scheme utilizing some surplus SYNC symbols in addition to SFD symbols to improve the SFD detection performance.

DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting)-S2 (Satellite - Second Generation) 표준은 현재 위성방송 시스템으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 표준이나, 추가적인 성능향상과 보다 다양한 응용분야에 적용하기 위해 DVB-S2 기술을 확장한 DVB-S2x (Satellite - Second Generation Extension) 시스템이 제정되었다. 그 중에서도 612,540 심볼 길이의 수퍼프레임 (Super-frame) 구조를 선택적으로 도입하여 긴 데이터 길이에 대해 스크렘블링 (Scrambling)을 적용하는 방법과 PLS (Physical Layer Signaling) 코드와 같은 참조 데이터 필드를 반복적으로 사용하는 방법 등을 사용할 수 있도록 하였다. 이를 통해 동일채널 간섭 (co-channel interference)에 대한 강인성을 증가시키고, 매우 낮은 SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) 환경에서의 수신기 성능 향상 효과를 제공하게 된다 본 논문에서는 버스트 슈퍼프레임 전송 기반의 DVB-S2x 수신기를 위한 동기부를 설계하고 구조를 제안한다. 슈퍼프레임의 포맷은 DVB-S2x Annex E 의 규격 중 2 번 포맷을 이용하였으며, 2 번 슈퍼프레임 포맷은 버스트 (burst) 기반의 전송 방식에 용이한 측면이 있다. 동기부는 크게 버스트 검출부, 주파수 복구부, 신호 이득 조절부 그리고 심벌 타이밍 복구부로 구성된다.

Signal attenuation of Ka-band satellite communication system due to rain fading is more severe than those of conventional frequency band system, thus an efficient rain fade countermeasure technique is absolutely required. In this paper, we design an improved adaptive modulation system, which switches the modulation mode according to the channel condition, and propose the novel synchronization algorithms. We assume that the modulation scheme is M-ary PSK and the receiver is TDMA burst mode. And the transponder model is the same with KOREASAT-3. By using the adaptive modulation scheme, we satisfy the BER and mean spectral efficiency requirements, simultaneously, which is impossible by using the fixed modulation scheme.

In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of synchronization of CCK(Complementary Code Keying) modulation scheme used for IEEE 802.11g wireless LAM system supporting 54 Mbps of high speed data rate over 2.4 GHz. At receiver, the clock frequency offset is caused by noise or fading. This frequency error occurs the offset of clock timing and causes ISI. Therefore the tracking is required to reduce the clock timing offset. The DLL(Delay Lock Loop), asychronization mode, performing tacking the clock is used for the simulation. The simulation result shows jitter variance and BER performance in the AWGN and multipath fading channel environment.

S-MAC is hybrids of CSMA and TDMA approaches that use local sleep-wake schedules to coordinate packet exchanges and reduce idle listening. In this method, all the nodes are considered with equal priority which may lead to increased delay during heavy traffic. The method introduced in this paper provides high throughput and small end-to-end delay suitable for applications such as real-time voice streaming and its functionality is independent of underlying synchronization protocol. The novel idea behind our scheme is that it uses the priority concept with (m,k)-firm scheduling in order to achieve its objectives. The performance of our scheme is obtained through simulations for various packet sizes, traffic loads which show significant improvements in packet delivery ratio, and delay compared to existing protocols.

This paper presents the design results of a Multi-band Global Positioning System (GPS)/Korean Positioning System (KPS) Real-Time Kinematics (RTK) precise positioning simulator and evaluate its functionalities. The designed simulator consists of a trajectory generation module, a Radio Frequency (RF) signal generation module, a RF signal reception module, a coarse positioning module, a precise positioning module, and an error statistics reporting module. Simulations in realistic scenarios confirm that the proposed baseband simulator works appropriately. The developed simulator can adjust the type, number, band, and Pseudo Random Noise (PRN) code type of the satellite constellation in various ways, and the practical positioning performance can be tested. It can also reflect the channel influence at the actual RF stage and the influence during the initial synchronization and tracking process. Considering such advantages, the proposed simulator would be useful in future researches and developments related to KPS.

To improve security in the data communication field, many studies on the application of chaotic signals to encryption have been conducted in recent years. In this study, a new security protocol where the initial value sensitivity and noise similarity of chaotic signals have been applied to an RFID communication channel was designed. In the case of chaotic systems, if the initial values become identical, the same signals are generated at the same time after that point even though the two systems have been calculated independently. Therefore, an unpredictable security channel can be produced based on such characteristics. However, a security channel can be produced only when an initial value is shared in advance, and thus there is a potential problem of infringement during the transmission of the initial value. To resolve this problem, a method in which a certain proportion of new chaotic signals are applied to two chaotic systems for communication and are then synchronized after some time was proposed. This new method can conceal the initial value, and thus can resolve the problem of the existing communication method using chaotic signals. The designed method was verified with the encryption and decryption of images. It is expected that a more secure RFID system could be established by applying the communication protocol proposed in this study to insecure RFID communication channels.

In this paper, we propose an enhanced AGC (Automatic Gain Control) structure and P-SCH detection method for initial cell search in 3GPP (3rdGenerationPartnershipProject) LTE (Long Term Evolution) FDD(Frequency Division Duplex) / TDD (Time Division Duplex) dual mode system. Since TDD frame structure consists of uplink subframe and downlink subframe, conventional AGC structure causes P-SCH detection performance degradation by increase of AGC variation due to signal power difference between uplink and downlink subframe. Also, P-SCH detection performance is degraded by distortion of P-SCH correlation characteristic in frequency offset and multipath fading channel environments. Therefore, we propose an AGC structure which can minimize P-SCH detection performance degradation with stable operation in 3GPP LTE TDD mode as well as FDD mode. Also we propose a P-SCH detection method which can reduce distortion of correlation chareteristics in frequency offset and multipath fading environments and obtain good P-SCH detection performance. Simulation results show that the proposed AGC structure and P-SCH detection method have stable AGC operation and excellent P-SCH detection performance for 3GPP LTE TDD / FDD dual mode downlink receiver in various channel environments.

ATSC is currently working on standardization of hybrid 3DTV broadcasting service in heterogenous network environment after completion of service-compatible 3DTV broadcasting service standard based on broadcasting channel. This paper proposes a convergence 3D video broadcasting method on broadcasting and IP network while guaranteeing a Full-HD 3D quality without degrading the image quality of legacy DTV. Specifically, this paper describes transmission of the 3D additional video using the ISO/IEC 23009-1 DASH, robust synchronization method under heterogenous network environments and system target decoder model for hybrid 3DTV receiver. Based on experimental results, we confirm that proposed technologies can be used as a core technology in the hybrid 3DTV standardization and a reference model for a development of hybrid 3DTV encoder and receiver.
