오늘날 전자기파의 영향은, 제어장비의 내부에 있는 기판의 전자 부품에 전자기적인 충격을 주어 장비의 오동작이나 고장을 일으키는 등 심각한 문제들이 제기 되고 있다. 이러한 임펄스 전자기파는 제어 장치에 연결된 제어전선으로 타고 들어와서 전자장비 내부의 부품들과 반사,공진등을 일으켜서 결국에는 PCB(printed circuit board)에 손상을 입혀서 그 장치들을 사용 못하게 할 수가 있다. 주파수가 광대역인 50MHz 에서 800MHz 까지의 EMI(electro magnetic interference)환경을 만들 수 있는 장치를 제작 하였다. 이러한 UWB(ultra wide band)장치는 고전압펄스를 압축 성형하여, 동작시간이 아주 빠른 ultra fast 스위치를 통해서, 펄스의 기림 시간이 수백ps의 파형을 만들어, 안테나로 전송하여 공간으로 방사시키는 장치에 대해 설계 제작하여 실험한 결과에 대해 논하고자 한다.

Partial Discharge(PD) pulses propagate in gas insulated substation(GIS) with rise time shorter than one nanosecond. Therefore, Ultra high frequency(UHF) couplers which have ultra wide band(UWB) characteristics from hundreds of MHz to several GHz are desirable for the detection of the PB pulses in GIS. In this paper, the authors proposed a log-periodic antenna for GIS PD detection. Various parameters of the coupler such as frequency bandwidth, coupler gain, radiation pattern, coupler geometry were considered through the simulations and the experiments together.

In this paper, various ultra-wideband (UWB) spatial multiplxing (SM) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) receivers based on a prerake diversity combining scheme are discussed and their performance is analyzed. Several UWB MIMO detection approaches such as zero forcing (ZF), minimum mean square error (MMSE), ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC), sorted QR decomposition (SQRD), and maximum likelihood (ML) are considered in order to cope with inter-channel interference. The UWB SM systems based on transmitter-side multipath preprocessing and receiver-side MIMO detection can either boost the transmission data rate or offer significant diversity gain and improved BER performance. The error performance and complexity of linear and nonlinear detection algorithms are comparatively studied on a lognormal multipath fading channel.

In this paper, a novel embedded ultra wideband (UWB) band-pass filter is presented on a FR-4 package substrate including high Dk resin coated copper (${\varepsilon}_r=30$) film. The proposed UWB filter is comprised of a parallel resonator with meander-type uniform impedance resonator (UIR) and two series resonators with high Q circular stacked spiral inductor and metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor. In order to obtain excellent attenuation characteristics by generating attenuation poles in lower and upper stop bands, a single MIM capacitor is added to each resonator. The fabricated FR-4 embedded UWB filter has insertion loss of -1.0dB and return loss of -11dB, respectively. It has also extremely wide bandwidth (over 50%) and small size ($3.7{\times}4{\times}0.77\;mm^3$) which is compatible with LTCC devices.

In this paper, we propose a transceiver for noncoherent OOK(On-Off Keying) Ultra Wide Band system based on magnitude detection. The proposed transceiver are designed using 0.18 micron CMOS technology and verified by simulation using SPICE and measurement. The proposed transceiver consist of parallelizer, Analog-to-Digital converter, clock generator, PLL and impulse generator. The time resolution of 1ns is obtained with 125MHz system clocks and 8x parallelization is carried out. The synchronized eight outputs with 2-bit resolution are delivered to the baseband. Impulse generator produces 1ns width pulse using digital CMOS gates. The simulation results and measurement show the feasibility of the proposed transceiver for UWB communication system.

As the demand for indoor location recognition system has been rapidly increased in accordance with the increasing use of smart devices and the increasing use of augmented reality, indoor positioning systems(IPS) using BLE (Bluetooth Lower Energy) beacons and UWB (Ultra Wide Band) have been developed. In this paper, a positioning plate is generated by using trilateration technique based on BLE Beacon and using RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator). The resultant value is used to calculate the PDR-based coordinates using the positioning element of the Inertial Measurement Unit sensor, We propose a precise indoor positioning algorithm that combines RSSI and PDR technique. Based on the plate algorithm proposed in this paper, the experiment have done at large scale indoor sports arena and airport, and the results were successfully verified by 65% accuracy improvement with average 2.2m error.

This paper describes a block processing approach to detect targets in front of mono-static terrain imaging radar (TIR). It is difficult to employ several conventional imaging methods of the synthetic aperture radar(SAR) because the TIR is an ultra-wide-band(UWB) type of radar and employs a dechirp-on-receive process. To design an available imaging method, a block processing approach which conducts a range compression and an azimuth compression is proposed in this paper. The complete derivation of the proposed approach is presented. The results of simulations and field tests are demonstrated to show the performance and validity of the proposed approach.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of multi-hop transmissions in IEEE 802.15.6 ultra wide band (UWB) wireless body area network (WBAN). The packet structure in the physical layer, and encoding and decoding are considered for multi-hop transmissions in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. We analyze the data success rate and energy efficiency of multi-hop transmissions with considering the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. Through simulations, we evaluate the data success rate and energy efficiency of multi-hop transmissions with varying the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. Finally, we can select an energy-efficient multi-hop transmission in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN depending on the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes.

Because worldwide interest in the health is increased, the real-time health monitoring system has been demanded to be more convenient non-contact and precise medical devices than conventional. Therefore we developed the blood pressure monitoring system using UWB(Ultra Wide Band) radio wave which contact to the human body through the radar and continuously collect a movement signal of the blood vessel. Then the collected data including pulse rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure is processed in real time. The system monitors and controls through a program-based embedded LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) using Qt GUI(Graphic User Interface) to be displayed in real time. We implement the system as a embedded system because of reducing the size of the limited resources. Existing PC GUI design mode is used relatively large memory, therefore it requires more CPU(Central Processing Unit) capacity and processing time.
