본 논문에서는 항공시스템의 데이터 및 음성 통신을 위한 VHF (Very High Frequency) digital link mode-2 (VDL Mode-2) 시스템에 적합한 수신 알고리듬을 제안한다. VDL Mode-2 시스템은 패킷 방식으로 동작하며 이에 따라 최적화된 패킷 검출 알고리듬을 설계하여야 한다. 또한 VDL Mode-2 시스템에서는 송수신 여파기로 각각 제곱근 상승 코사인 여파기를 사용하는 일반적인 디지털 통신 시스템과 달리 점유 주파수 대역 요구사항에 따라 송신 여파기로 상승 코사인 여파기를 사용한다. 따라서 수신기에서는 ISI (inter-symbol interference)와 잡음 특성을 고려하여 최적화된 저역 통과 여파기를 설계하여야 한다. 이와 함께 VDL Mode-2 시스템의 안정적인 동작을 위해서는 송수신기의 반송파 주파수 차이와 도플러 주파수 천이에 의한 주파수 오프셋을 추정하고 보상하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 VDL Mode-2 시스템을 위한 패킷 검출, 수신 여파기 및 주파수 오프셋 추정 및 보상 알고리듬들을 제안하고 제안한 기법들을 적용한 VDL Mode-2 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다.

In this paper. we propose receiver algorithms for VHF(Very High Frequency) digital link mode-2(VDL Mode-2) systems. Unlike conventional digital communication systems using the root raised cosine filter as a transmit and receive filter, raised cosine filter is used as a transmit filter in VDL Mode-2 systems. Hence, it is crucial to design and implement the optimum lowpass receive filter by considering the amount of inter-symbol interference and noise performance. On the other hand, due to the short preamble pattern, it is crucial to develop an efficient packet detection algorithm for reliable communication link. In this paper, we design the optimum receive filter and packet detection algorithm and evaluate the performance of receiver adopting the proposed receive filter and packet detection algorithm.

선박의 위치추적시스템(VMS: Vessel Monitoring System)은 선박의 안전항해를 확보하기 위한 수단으로 다양한 통신망을 사용하여 구성을 확대해나가고 있다. VMS를 위한 통신망으로는 현재 Inmarsat 및 Orbcomm 등 위성통신망과 AIS(Automatic Identification System of ships: 선박자동식별장치)의 VHF(Very High Frequency: 초단파) 통신망 등이 사용되고 있다. 최근에는 5톤 이상의 어선에도 VHF 무선설비의 설치를 단계적으로 강제화하였으며, 소형선박에도 AIS의 탑재를 강제화할 계획을 검토하고 있음에 따라 이에 따른 효율적인 통신망 구축 방안을 사전에 검토할 필요성이 대두되었다. 여기에서는 선박의 안전항해를 확보하고 효율적인 VMS를 구축할 수 있는 VMS 통신망 구축 방안에 대하여 연구 제시하였다.

높은 분해능의 영상을 얻는데 사용하기 위하여 초고주파 대역에서 동작하는 집속 초음파 트랜스듀서를 제작하고 그 특성을 평가하였다. 그 트랜스듀서는 한쪽 면에만 접지용 전극이 있는 두께 9 ${\mu}m$의 PVDF 압전막의 다른 쪽 면에 CCP (Copper Clad Polyimide)막을 에폭시로 접착한 후, 금속구로 압착함에 의해 구각형을 형성시키고, 그 뒷면에 에폭시를 채워 몰딩 시키는 방법에 의해 만들어졌다. 제작된 곡률반경 7.5 mm, f-number 1.7의 트랜스듀서는 초점에 있는 표적에 대한 펄스에 코 측정결과 35.0 MHz의 대역폭을 가지며, 약 40 MHz인 피크주파수 부근에서의 삽입손실은 약 60 dB 을 나타내었는데, 그 측정결과는 에폭시 접착층의 두께를 고려한 KLM 등가회로 해석에 의한 시뮬레이션 결과와 유사한 것이었다. 나아가, 그 트랜스듀서에 의해 얻어진 가는 구리선 표적에 대한 영상을 35 MHz 트랜스듀서를 장착한 UBM (Ultrasonic Backscattering Microscope) 장치에 의한 영상과 비교한 결과, 측방향 분해능은 떨어지나 축방향 분해능은 다소 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

We report, for the first time, the afternoon (i.e., from noon to sunset time) observations of the northern mid-latitude E-region field-aligned irregularities (FAIs) made by the very high frequency (VHF) coherent backscatter radar operated continuously since 29 December 2009 at Daejeon (36.18°N, 127.14°E, 26.7°N dip latitude) in South Korea. We present the statistical characteristics of the mid-latitude afternoon E-region FAIs based on the continuous radar observations. Echo signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the afternoon E-region FAIs is found to be as high as 35 dB, mostly occurring around 100-135 km altitudes. Most spectral widths of the afternoon echoes are close to zero, indicating that the irregularities during the afternoon time are not related to turbulent plasma motions. The occurrence of afternoon E-regional FAI is observed with significant seasonal variation, with a maximum in summer and a minimum in winter. Furthermore, to investigate the afternoon E-region FAIs-Sporadic E (E_s) relationship, the FAIs have also been compared with E_s parameters based on observations made from an ionosonde located at Icheon (37.14°N, 127.54°E, 27.7°N dip latitude), which is 100 km north of Daejeon. The virtual height of E_s (h'E_s) is mainly in the height range of 105 km to 110 km, which is 5 km to 10 km greater than the bottom of the FAI. There is no relationship between the FAI SNR and the highest frequencies (f_tE_s) (or blanket frequencies (f_bE_s)). SNR of FAIs, however, is found to be related well with (f_tE_s-f_bE_s).

This paper presents a wideband and low-noise direct conversion front-end receiver supporting VHF and UHFbands simultaneously. The receiver iscomposed of a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a down conversion quadrature mixer, and a frequency divider by 2. The cascode configuration with the resistor feedback is exploited in the LNA to achieve a wide operating bandwidth. Four gainstep modesare employed using a switched resistor bank and a capacitor bank in the signal path to cope with wide dynamic input power range. The verticalbipolar junction transistors are used as the switching elements in the mixer to reduce 1/f noise corner frequency. The proposed front-end receiver fabricated in 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology shows very low minimum noise figureof 1.8 dB and third order input intercept pointof -12dBm inthe high-gain mode of 26.5 dBmeasured at 500 MHz.The proposed receiverconsumeslow current of 20 mA from a 1.8 V power supply.

As demands for the maritime communications increase, a variety of functions and information are required to exchange via elements of maritime systems, which leads communication traffic increases in maritime frequency bands, especially in VHF (Very High Frequency) band. Thus, effective resource management is crucial to the future maritime communication systems not only to the typical terrestrial communication systems. VHF data exchange system (VDES) enables to utilize more flexible configuration according to the communication condition. This paper focuses on the VDES communication system among VDES terminals such as shore stations, ship stations and aids to navigation (AtoN) to address efficient resource allocation. We propose a resource management method considering a MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technique in VDES, which has been widely used for modern terrestrial wireless networks but not for marine environments by scheduling the essential communication resources. We introduce the general channel model in marine environment and give two metrics, spectral and the energy efficiencies to examine our resource scheduling algorithm. Based on the simulation results and analysis, the proposed method provides a possibility to enhance spectral and energy efficiencies. Additionally, we present a trade-off relationship between spectral and energy efficiencies. Furthermore, we examine the resource efficiencies related to the imperfect channel estimation.

Recently, the HFPD measurement testing is widely used in partial discharge measurement of HV machines because HFPD measurement testing receives less influence of external noise and has a merit of good sensitivity. Also HFPD testing is able to offer the judgement standard of degradation level of HV machine and can detect discharge signals in live-line. Therefore it is very useful method compare to previous conventional PD testing method and effective diagnosis method in power transformer that requires live-line diagnosis. But partial discharges have very complex characteristics of discharge pattern so it is required continuous research to development of precise analysis method. In recent, the study of partial discharge is carrying out discover of initial defect of power equipment through condition diagnosis and system development of degradation diagnosis using HFPD(High Frequency Partial Discharge) detection. In this study, simulated transformer is manufactured and HFPD occurred from transformer is measured with broad band antenna in real time, the degradation grade of transformer is analyzed through produced patterns in simulated transformer according to applied voltages.
