This paper presents a time synchronization algorithm based on PLL for application to telemetry systems and implement FPGA logic. The large aircraft of the telemetry system acquires status information through each distributed acquisition devices and analyzes the flight status in real time. For this reason, time synchronization between systems is important to improve precision. This paper presents a PLL based time synchronization algorithm that is less complex than other time synchronization methods and takes less time to process data because there is minimized message transmission for synchronization. The validity of proposed algorithm is proved by simulation of Python. And the VHDL logic was implemented in FPGA to check the time synchronization performance.

This study deals with Timing Synchronization of motion picture and music in film music's physical point of view. Timing Synchronization appears by using Click Track, which calculates time of picture and location of bar. We also can find Hit, the emphasis point of music, by computation Frame Per Beat and estimate the location of note per time. Hit can be placed at upbeat, but, because of music's characteristic, it is more convenient to composer when it's placed at downbeat. Therefore, this study suggests three methods to sync the music and picture. First of all, sync through time conversion, second of all, sync through tempo conversion, and lastly, there is way to sync through offset. These each methods have their pros and cons, so choice should be made based on the music's natural flow.

In this paper, we classify various attacks that may damage the embedded watermark signal into waveform attack and synchronization attack. And for the specialized defense against the two kinds of attacks we propose a new watermarking scheme named as two layer watermarking method. It consists of a synchronization layer to prepare for the geometrical attack such as rotation and shift and a marking layer 0 embed the watermark signal actually. Namely, the synchronization layer only determines the target region where the watermark signal will be embedded or extracted. And the marking layer spreads the watermark signal over the image as the conventional watermarking methods do. Using the layered structure, the proposed method overcomes the problem that the conventional watermarking methods that do not use the original image at the verification side are most vulnerable to geometrical attacks.

Two-way ranging methods such as TWR and SDS-TWR have been considered for many ranging systems because these methods are useful in the absence of synchronization. To estimate the location of a mobile node, complicated ranging procedures consisting of ranging frames between an anchor node and the mobile node are performed. Supporting multiple mobile nodes such as a few hundreds or thousands and several anchor nodes, the ranging procedures have the fatal disadvantage of processing delay and inefficient traffic bandwidth. On the other hand, the one-way ranging method is simple and fast, but susceptible to network synchronization. In this paper, we propose a method to modify asynchronous ranging equations to establish exact frequency or frequency offset, a method to estimate frequencies or frequency offsets, and a method to establish post-facto synchronization with anchor nodes. The synchronization for a node pair is adapted using instantaneous time information and corresponding difference of distances can be determined. We evaluate the performance of TWR, SDS-TWR and proposed ranging algorithms.

Objective and Background: Laryngeal stroboscope is an useful equipment in evaluation of vocal cord vibration and in early detection of mucosal lesion including invasive cancer of the vocal cord. Recently Lee et al. (2006) developed portable stroboscope using voice as synchronization signal. It has been frequently impaired ability to synchronize the flashes even in normal female. Authors tried to investigate various methods including vibration pick-up, microphone, laryngeal microphone, and contact microphone for development of simple and accurate method like electroglottograph signal. The purpose of this study was to estimate wheher the vibration pick-up is available and is consistent with the signal of EGG. Subjects and Methods: Authors compared the signals between EGG and noncontact method such as voice, contact methods including vibration pick-up, laryngeal microphone, and contact microphone in normal twenty adults (male 10 and female 10). The number of peak in one cycle was compared with the number of the peak in EGG, and the percent of phase difference in the peak was compared with EGG Also, authors tried to investigate which site of vibration pick-up was most effective for synchronization of stobo flashes. Three site including anterior neck below the cricoid cartilage, thyroid ala, and suprahyoid region were analysed. Results: Among various methods for synchronization of strobo flashes, vibration pick-up was most effective method in peak detection. And anterior neck below cricoid cartilage was the most available site of the vibration pick-up. Conclusion: Authors suggest that vibration pick-up is most available and effective method for synchronization of strobo flashes.

Reproductive research such as artificial insemination and embryo transfer is necessary to produce high-quality riding horses. In this study, we investigated the effects of estrus synchronization and ovulation induction methods, which can be considered the basis of artificial insemination in horses, on the hormone concentration and artificial insemination pregnancy rate of mares. For the purpose of synchronization of estrus in horses, Cidr-plus insertion method, Regumate feeding method, and 150mg progesterone + 10mg estradiol mixed administration method were used. In the Cidr-plus insertion method and the Regumate feeding method, the progesterone concentration reached the appropriate level for ovulation induction on the 8th day of administration. The mixed administration method of 150mg progesterone + 10mg estradiol maintained the progesterone concentration at an appropriate level immediately after administration. With the administration of PGF2a and hCG, progesterone concentration decreased rapidly, making ovulation induction possible. As a result of comparing the pregnancy rate between natural estrus and estrus synchronization, the pregnancy rate was found to be higher in estrus synchronization and ovulation induction. From the results of this study, it is insufficient to judge the effect of the pregnancy rate due to the small number of tests, but in terms of usability, estrus synchronization and ovulation induction were useful. Therefore, it is expected to contribute to improving the efficiency of future roadster production.

In the W-CDMA system, cell search is one of the imporant functions of the mobile station searching for a cell and achieving spreading code and time synchronization to its downlink scrembling code. For the methods of cell search to optimize codes, three stages are considered: 1) slot synchronization, 2) frame synchronization, and 3) scrambling code identification. Channels for cell search are Primary Synchronization Channel (P-SCH), Secondary Synchronization Channel(S-SCH), and Common Pilot Channel (CPICH). In this paper, cell search is analyzed based on simulation. Rake receiver provides improvement of Performance as an increase of bandwidth because there are more available multipaths. In this paper, the performance of W-CDMA system employing RAKE receiver is evaluated by computer simulation over the types of ITU_R wideband channel model and spreading rate. The result shows that the performance of CDMA adapting RAKE receiver is improved by the increase of multipath components in equal level of the received power.

In this paper, we propose a method to a synchronization of chaotic mobile robots that have unstable limit cycles in a chaos trajectory surface. We assume all obstacles in the chaos trajectory surface have a VDP (Van der Pol) equation with an unstable limit cycle. The proposed methods are assumed that if one of two chaotic mobile robot receives the synchronization command, the other robot also follows the same trajectory during the chaotic robot search on the arbitrary surface.

In this paper, we propose a high-speed synchronization method for Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) receivers. In order to satisfy the high-speed synchronization requirement of DRM receivers, the proposed method eliminate the initial sampling frequency synchronization process in conventional synchronization methods. In the proposed method, sampling frequency tracking is performed after integer frequency synchronization and frame synchronization. Different correlation algorithms are applied to detect the first frame of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) demodulation symbol with sampling frequency offset (SFO). A frame detection algorithm that is robust to SFO is selected based on the performance analysis and simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed method reduces the time spent for initial sampling frequency synchronization even if SFO is present in the DRM signal. In addition, it is verify that inter-cell differential correlation used between reference cells is roubst to the effect of initial SFO.

This paper investigates a synchronization algorithm for a distributed network which does not have a centralized infrastructure. In order to operate a distributed network, synchronization across distributed terminals should be acquired in advance, and hence, a plenty of distributed synchronization algorithms have been studied extensively in the past. However, most of the previous studies focus on the synchronization only in fault-free networks. Thus, if there are some malfunctioning terminals in the network, the synchronization can not be guaranteed with conventional distributed synchronization methods. In this paper, we propose a reliability-based adaptive consensus algorithm which can effectively acquire the synchronization across distributed terminals and confirm performance of the proposed algorithm by conducting numerical simulations.
