Radio frequency (RF) subsampling can be used by radio receivers to directly down-convert and digitize RF signals. A goal of a cognitive radio/software defined ratio (CR/SDR) receiver design is to place the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) as near the antenna as possible. Based on this, a band-pass sampling (BPS) frontend for CR/SDR is proposed and verified. We present a receiver architecture based second-order BPS and signal processing techniques for a digital RF frontend. This paper is focused on the benefits of the second-order BPS architecture in spectrum sensing over a wide frequency band range and in multiband receiving without modification of the RF hardware. Methods to manipulate the spectra are described, and reconstruction filter designs are provided. On the basis of this concept, second-order BPS frontends for CR/SDR systems are designed and verified using a hardware platform.

This paper presents a wide-range speed control scheme of brushless DC (BLDC) motors based on a hall sensor with separated low- and normal-speed controllers. However, the use of the hall sensor signal is insufficient to detect motor speed in the low-speed region because of low sensor resolution and time delay. In the proposed method, a micro-stepping current control method according to the torque angle variation is presented. In this mode, the motor current frequency and rotating angle are determined by the reference speed without the actual speed fed by the hall sensor. The detected torque angle is used to adjust the current value in a limited band to control the current value in accordance with the load. The torque angle is detected exactly at the changing point of the hall sensor signal. The rotor can follow the rotating flux with the variable torque angle. In a normal speed range, the conventional vector control scheme is used to control the motor current with a PI speed controller using the hall sensor. The torque characteristics are analyzed on the basis of the back EMF and current shape. To adopt the vector control scheme, the continuous rotor position is estimated by the measured speed and hall sensor position. At the mode changing point between low and normal speed range, the proper initial current command and reference rotor position are calculated. The calculated current command can reduce the torque ripple during transient mode. The proposed method is simple but effective in extending the speed control range of a conventional BLDC motor with hall sensor without the need for a high-resolution encoder. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by various experiments on a practical BLDC motor.

스마트 기기의 생활화와 증강현실 활용 증가로 실내 위치 인식 시스템의 수요가 급증함에 따라, BLE(Bluetooth Lower Energy) 비콘 그리고 UWB(Ultra Wide Band) 등을 이용한 실내 측위 시스템이 개발되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 BLE Beacon을 기반으로 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator)를 이용한 삼변측량(Trilateration) 기법을 사용하여 측위 플레이트(Plate)를 생성한다. 이에 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit) 센서의 방향, 속도, 이동거리 등의 데이터를 이용하여 PDR(Pedestrian Dead Reckoning) 측위 좌표를 산출하여 정확도를 보정한다. 또, BLE 비콘(Beacon)의 RSSI를 적용한 플레이트(Plate) 기법과 PDR 기법이 융합된 정밀 실내 측위 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제시한 알고리즘을 실제 대형 실내 경기장과 공항에 BLE 비콘을 설치, 실험하여 평균 2.2m 의 오차로 65%의 정확도가 개선됨을 검증하였다.

본 논문은 UWB(Ultra Wide Band) 펄스를 이용해서 인체에 접촉하지 않고 호흡, 심장 박동, 혈압, 혈당 등 생체 신호를 측정할 수 있는 방법을 기술하였다. 생체 신호는 건강을 점검하는 기초 자료로 인간의 활동 영역이 매우 넓어지고 수명이 길어지고 있으므로 기존 병원에 집중된 인적 및 물적 의료 시스템을 환자와 밀접하게 확산시켜서 신속한 치료 및 조치를 취해 건강한 생활을 영위할 수 있도록 요구하고 있다. 이와 같이 환자에 밀접하게 설치되어 지속적으로 불편함 없이 건강을 감시하는 방법으로 전파를 활용하는 방법이 오래 전부터 연구되어 왔으나 전파의 인체에 대한 특성 등을 정확히 파악하지 않고 개발되어 왔으므로 실제 임상에 적용하기에는 원하는 수준의 성능에 도달하지 못해 널리 실용화 되지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 문제점인 인체에 대한 UWB 펄스파의 영향 및 특성 등을 분석해서 기술하였다.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) detection method has been widely used as a front end detection scheme for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring systems. A broad-band video detector module was developed and characterized for the UHF UWB PD detection systems. The useable bandwidth of the module is more than 2 GHz and it is optimized for 50-ohm systems. The detection sensitivity and dynamic range of the module were characterized by using a known ns-width RF pulses of GHz range. The dynamic range is more than 6-decades and the module can detect pulsed RF signals down to 1 nW. The detector module can eliminate expensive equipment such as high speed oscilloscopes and radio frequency (RF) spectrum analyzers. Therefore, it enables one to use slow speed data acquisition systems for the PD monitoring at the UHF range. The detector module was used to detect real PDs of about <3 pC. The module converts the UWB PD signals into a low-bandwidth video signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio.

To detect the insulator in the fault state on the electric poles, we first measured radiation sounds from normal state insulators and error state insulators in the anechoic chamber. We processed the signals in frequency domain to find the features with filter bank, narrow band and wide band analysis. So we could found two apparent results from their frequency spectrums - one was 120Hz harmonic components, the other was high average noise level than normal state ones. Then we also introduced a technique for the direction detection of the fault state insulator using the cross correlation from the three dimensional array microphones. To eliminate the noise signal from unexpected directions, we suggested the zero padding technique in cross correlation function. From these, we could conclude that acoustic fault detection techniques are useful of the detection of insulators' faults and the estimation of the direction of the fault state insulators.

The lateral resolution in an ultrasound imaging system is one of the most important factors for quality of the image and is determined by the beam focusing. For the better lateral resolution SDF(Sampled Delay Focusing) capable of digital focusing was proposed. The second-order sampling, one of band-width sampling methods, is suggested as being the best suitable for SDF because it allows total digital processing and is simple and economical. By proving that it introduces too much error, this article shows the second-order sampling is not appropriate for sampling of the wide-band signal generally used in ultrasound imaging systems. Also, this article suggests new sampling methods that maintain the advantages and reduce the unavoidable errors of the second-order sampling method. From computer simulation it is expected that the proposed methods reduce the errors of the second-order sampling method and can be used in real applications.
