In order to survey the radiation characteristics of pure line noise of unwanted noise from overhead high voltage AC transmission lines, a disk type gap noise generator was manufactured. Disk size which decides capacitance between the noise generator and earth was selected through preliminary indoor experiments and analysis by using surface charge method. The capacitance is one of principal parameters related to the injection of a proper noise current into lines. On the basis of the capacitance obtained from calculation, 5mm of space was given to the gap of the noise generator to be installed o test line and an aluminum disk of 60cm radius was made. The field experiments were performed with the noise generator hung on the Kochang 765 kV full scale test line. As the results, the useful data which can be used to analysis the radiation characteristics of noise from transmission lines were obtained. Those are the directivity of antenna toward the line, lateral profiles, frequency spectra, height pattern and so on.

We designed and implemented the RFIC(RF front-end IC) for DTV(Digital TV) tuner. The DTV tuner RF front-end consists of low noise IF amplifier fur the amplification of 900 MHz RF signal and down conversion mixer for the RF signal to 44MHz IF conversion. The RFIC is implemented on ETRI 0.8u high resistive (2㎘ -cm) and evaluated by on wafer, packaged chip test. The gain and IIP3 of IF amplifier are 15㏈ and -6.6㏈m respectively. For the down conversion mixer gain and IIP3 are 13㏈ and -6.5㏈m. Operating voltage of the IF amplifier and the down mixer is 5V, current consumption are 13㎃ and 26㎃ respectively.

Total Variation(TV) regularization method is effective for reconstructing "blocky", discontinuous images from contaminated image with noise. But TV is represented by highly nonlinear integro-differential equation that is hard to solve. There have been much effort to obtain stable and fast methods. C. Vogel introduced "the Fixed Point Lagged Diffusivity Iteration", which solves the nonlinear equation by linearizing. In this paper, we apply multigrid(MG) method for cell centered finite difference (CCFD) to solve system arise at each step of this fixed point iteration. In numerical simulation, we test various images varying noises and regularization parameter $\alpha$ and smoothness $\beta$ which appear in TV method. Numerical tests show that the parameter ${\beta}$ does not affect the solution if it is sufficiently small. We compute optimal $\alpha$ that minimizes the error with respect to $L^2$ norm and $H^1$ norm and compare reconstructed images.

In this paper, performance improved hole-filling algorithm including boundary noise removing pre-process which can be used for an arbitrary view synthesis with given two views is proposed. Boundary noise usually occurs because of the boundary mismatch between the reference image and depth map and common-hole is defined as the occluded region. These boundary noise and common-hole created while synthesizing a virtual view result in some defects and they are usually very difficult to be completely recovered by using only given two images as references. The spiral weighted average algorithm gives a clear boundary of each object by using depth information and the gradient searching algorithm is able to preserve details. In this paper, we combine these two algorithms by using a weighting factor ${\alpha}$ to reflect the strong point of each algorithm effectively in the virtual view synthesis process. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs much better than conventional algorithms.

FRC(Frame Rate Control) has been applied to the monitor and TV product as part of cost-saving in many flat panel display manufacturers. As FRC can represent the same number of gray scale level with bits of a smaller amount than bits of the input image data, it is widely used. However, FRC causes visual artifacts by using repeatedly pre-designed the FRC unit size of block pattern in display devices. Therefore, this paper analyzes the cause of the visual artifacts. And in order to improve them, it proposed the pattern arrangement of FRC unit blocks through frame rolling method as analytic solution for the first time. So, we could embody causes of FRC noise. Using the proposed structure, more robust pattern to FRC noise will be designed.

CATV is the abbreviation for Cable Television. General CATV is a way of multi-channel sending images, voices and music including stillness image as well as characters to public receivers through electrical cable communication system. In the beginning, master antennas were people can not receive TV signal well. TV programs were received from master antennas to TVs in each house. Ground connection began by experimenting lightning with the use of a kite and it means electric appliances, communication equipments, measuring instruments and so on connecting the Earth in order to flow away overcharged electricity. There are two kinds of earth connection: Power Ground and Signal Ground. Power Ground is for preventing an electric shock and in general there's no current in the connector. However in an accident, there's a quick flow of electricity out to the Earth. Signal Ground is not only for the safety of appliances but also for the safety of equipment operation. This paper is about connection for noise and interference reduce in order to prevent wrong operation and distortion of signal in the electrical appliances which can take place in CATV.

A fully integrated multistandard multiband CMOS mobile TV tuner with small silicon area and low power consumption is proposed for receiving multiple mobile digital TV signals and FM signal. In order to reduce the silicon area of the multistandard multiband receiver, other RF front-end circuits except LNAs are shared and a local oscillator (LO) signal generation architecture with a single VCO for a frequency synthesizer is proposed. To reduce the low frequency noise and the power consumption, a vertical NPN BJT is used in an analog baseband circuits. The RF tuner IC is implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The RF tuner IC satisfies all specifications for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a sufficient margin and a successful demonstration has been carried out for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a digital demodulator.

In this paper we propose an efficient method to broadcast digital television signals using Single Frequency Networks (SFNs) in the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) transmission systems. Since the proposed schemes to synchronize multiple transmitters minimize the changes from the conventional ATSC system, the hardware complexity for the changes is very low. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme makes less than 0.1 dB degradation at the threshold of visibility (TOV： BER= 3$\times$$10^{-6}$) in the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. It is possible to reduce the performance degradation by increasing an initialization period of the proposed scheme.

Intermittent or periodic signals with undulating amplitudes of mobile devices cause interference noise at audible frequency to the sound system which is installed nearby. In this regard, it is recently issued that the intermittently transmissions of LTE mobile phones cause the interference noises with sound systems, similar to that of GSM mobile phones. For retaining the immunity to noises, a national regulation KN20 suggests a 1 kHz AM 80 % and a CDMA modulation signal as reference signals for immunity test of sound and television broadcast receiver. In this paper, the effects of interference noises of AM and CDMA are compared with those of GSM and LTE, and the improvement of reference signal for national immunity test of sound systems is suggested. It is recommended to delete the CDMA modulation signal from reference signals for immunity test because it hardly cause interference noise with sound systems. On the other hand, it is desirable to select the modulation signal of LTE instead of CDMA as a reference signal for immunity test of sound system and television broadcast receiver because many people use the LTE service and it is analysed that the LTE signal causes considerable interference noises.
