In this paper, we propose a distributed time synchronization technique for OFDMA- based wireless mesh communication systems. The proposed technique employs the bio-inspired algorithm for self-time synchronization in the physical layer. To achieve the network synchronicity, the proposed technique updates the transmission time and the FFT window using the TDoA information of received signals from the neighbor nodes. The proposed technique can achieve fast self-synchronization among nodes with a simple algorithm, without the need of a centralized controller. The performance of the proposed time synchronization technique is evaluated by simulation in terms of convergence speed and convergence probability.

Recently System On a Chip(SoC) design based on IP cores has become the trend of If design To prevent the testing problem from becoming the bottleneck of the core-based design, defining of an efficient test architecture and a successful test methodology are mandatory. This paper describes a test architecture and a test control access mechanism for SoC based on IEEE 1149.1 boundary,scan. The proposed SoC test architecture is fully compatible with IEEE P1500 Standard for Embedded Core Test(SECT), and applicable for both TAPed cores and Wrapped cores within a SOC with the same test access mechanism. Controlled by TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO, the proposed test architecture provides a hierarchical test feature.

Recently, Ubiquitous computing technology is increasing necessity for object recognition and a location tracking technology to meet various applications. The location tracking technology is the fundamental to the Context-Aware of users in Ubiquitous environment and its efficiency has to be improved using IEEE 802.15.4 ZigBee used in current infra such as ubiquitous sensor network. But because the IEEE 802.15.4 ZigBee protocol has limitation to apply location tracking technology such as ToA and TDoA, Zone-based Location Tracking technology using RSSI is needed. In this paper suggests RSSI-based 802.15.4 ZigBee local positioning protocol to support a positioning tracking service in Ubiqutous environment. And Zone-based location tracking system is designed for actual the indoor location tracking service.

IEEE 1149.1 test architecture was proposed to support the test of elements within the boards. It is a large serial shift register that uses the TDI pin as an input and the TDO pin as an output. Even though it performs the board level test perfectly, there is a problems of running system level test when the boards are equipped to the system. To test real time operation signal on test pin, output speed of serial shift register chain must be above double clock speed of shift register. In this paper, we designed a runtime test architecture and a runtime test procedure under running system environments to capture runtime signal at system clock rate. The suggested runtime test architecture are simulated by Altera Max+Plus 10.0. through the runtime test procedure. The simulation results show that operations of the suggested runtime test architecture are very accurate.

In this paper, we developed a selectable observation Point test architecture and test procedure for clocked 4-bit synchronous counter circuit based on boundary scan architecture. To develope, we analyze the operation of Sample/Preload instruction on boundary scan architecture. The Sample/Preload instruction make Possible to snapshot of outputs of CUT(circuit under test) at the specific time. But the changes of output of CUT during normal operation are not possible to observe using Sample/Preload in typical scan architecture. We suggested a selectable observation point test architecture that allows to select output of CUT and to observe of the changes of selected output of CUT during normal operation. The suggested a selectable observation point test architecture and test procedure is simulated by Altera Max 10.0. The simulation results of 4-bit counter shows the accurate operation and effectiveness of the proposed test architecture and procedure.

In this paper, we propose a widerange array microphone for lecturer tracked with Frequency Modulated Continuous Waveform (FMCW) radar sensor. Time Difference-of-Arrival (TDoA) is often used as audio tracking, but the tracking accuracy is poor because the frequency of the voice is low and the relative frequency change is large. FMCW radar has a simple structure and is used to detect obstacles for vehicles, and the resolution can be archived to several centimeter. It is shown that the sensor is useful for detecting a speaker in open area such as a lecture, and we propose an wide range 4-element array microphone beamforming system. Through some experiments, the proposed system is able to adequately track the location and showed a 8.6dB improvement over the selection of the best microphone.

This paper researches location estimating method in CDMA system. Previously proposed positioning algorithms are difficult to estimate accurate position in indoor environments, and possible to limited position. This paper proposes enhanced algorithm using received PN pilot signals from base stations to enhance previous algorithms. For estimating position, we set the threshold value and use over the threshold value in received signals. After selecting signals, we estimate position using TDOA algorithm. And the cases which TDOA algorithm cannot use to estimate position, we use Pattern Matching algorithm. The proposed method system showed the improved performance in estimating parameters and locating positions by computer simulations.

본 논문은 UWB(Ultra Wide Band) 펄스 기반의 단일 송수신을 통한 근거리 무선측위 시스템 및 방법에 관한 것으로서, UWB 펄스의 높은 시간 분해능을 이용하여 근거리에서 높은 정밀도를 가지고 태그의 위치를 획득할 수 있다. 특히, 마스터-슬레이브 형태로 구성된 비콘(beacon)들 간의 사전 설정을 통해 마스터 비콘과 무선측위 대상인 태그 사이의 단일 송수신만으로 ToA(Time of Arrival) 및 TDoA(Time Difference of Arrival) 기법을 적용할 수 있도록 하며, 이로써 태그의 신호 송신을 최소화하여 태그의 저전력 동작을 가능케하는 UWB기반 단일송수신을 통한 근거리 무선측위 시스템이다.
