In this paper, An Ultra Fast Acquisition Algorithm of low transmission rate ultra-wideband(UWB) systems for car positioning and traffic light controling is proposed. Since the acquisition algorithms for CDMA system are not fast enough to access the low transmission rate UWB systems, the new ultra fast acquisition scheme which can be implemented with low cost and simplified circuit is required. The proposed algorithm adopted the Recurrent Sequential Estimation scheme and trinomial M-sequence. Therefore, The proposed scheme can reduce the average acquisition time in $1\~3{\mu}sec$ with simple circuit, even for the UWB systems which use long pseudo-noise(PN) sequence and transmit low power below the FCC EIRP emission limits. The simulation results for the average acquisition time of the proposed scheme are compared with the ones of the existing acquisition schemes.

Addressed in this paper is performance analysis of the maximum-likelihood code acquisition technique for slotted-mode preamble search in the CDMA reverse link. The probabilities of detection, miss, and false alarm are derived analytically for a multiple $H_{1}$ cell case in a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel, based on the statics of the CDMA noncoherent demodulator output. the probability density function of the decision variable consisting of successive demodulator outputs is also derived by considering the fading characteristics of the received signal for both single and dual antenna cases. The performance of the code acquisition technique is evaluated numerically with an emphasis on investigating the effects of post-detection integration, fading rate, and antenna diversity on the detection performance.

In the CDMA mobile communication system with asynchronous mode among base stations, the initial PN code acquisition method using a matched filter can be considered for the rapid PN code synchronization acquisition in the handoff region. In the model of the noncoherent QPSK/DS-SS under the Rayleigh fading channel, the mean acquisttion time of the matched filter is analyzed to have a shortened time in proportion to the length of matched filter to be compared with the serial correlation method. In this paper to improve the HW complexity of the conventional matched device which enables the repeated correlation process, is designed and its function is verified through the FPGAsimulation using Altera MaxPlus Ⅱ.

In this paper, we perform a performance analysis of serial acquisition scheme using AWGN rejection filter in Rayleigh fading channel and propose robust acquisition scheme using Reference filter, which is utilized to vary threshold at fading rate, in Rayleigh fading channel. AWGN rejection filter is utilized to evaluate running average for compensating channel gain. The JAKE model, which a channel model, is used for the analysis. The simulation result shows that the mean acquisition time of the proposed acquisition system is minimized than acquisition system using AWGN rejection filter and serial-search acquisition system.

This paper proposes the specific code synchronization technique for DS-SS(Direct Sequence-Spread Spectrum transmission in the DVB-RCS +M standard. DS-SS is better than multi-carrier transmission method under nonlinear channel but imposes a long acquisition time. To improve the synchronization aspect, the robust correlation structure is introduced for acquisition and the nonlinear delay lock loop is done for tracking. MAT(Mean Acquisition Time) performances is shown to validate its superiority. In addition, code tracking and jitter performances are done when code tracking algorithm based on 2 oversamples which is not influenced by sampling clock timing offset and carrier freq. offset is used.

This paper considers the evaluation of the hybrid acquistion perdformance for the pilot signal in the direct sequence code division multiple access(DS/CDMA) forward link. the hybrid acquisition is introduced by the combination of two schemes, the parallel and serial acquisions. The mean acquisition time of the proposed scheme is derived to consider both the best case(the correct code-phase offsets are included i one subset) and the worst case(the correct code-phase offsets exist at the boundary of two subsets), which are cause by the distribution of the correct code-phase offsets in the subset. Expressions for the detection, false alarm, and miss probabilities are derived for the case of multiple correct code-phase offsets and multipath Rayleigh fading channel. Numerical results present the hybrid acquistion performance with repect to design parameters such as postdetectio integration length in the search and verification modes, subset size, and number of I/Q noncoherent correlators, and compare the hybrid acquistion with the parallel acquistion in terms of the minimum acquistion time under the same hardware complexity.

In this paper, a high speed code synchronization circuit is proposed. for fast code synchronization, matched filler method is used for initial code acquisition with two channel correlators. Particular frequency patterns of the limited number having the information about PN code start time are composed and transmitted repeatedly to increase the probability of accurate initial synchronization. And digital frequency synthesizer is proposed. And it's performance is analyzed theoretically. The analysis show that fast frequency hopping is possible in frequency hopping system that use digital frequency synthesizer.

Acquisition of 3D points is an essential process for modelling of physical 3D objects. Although Coordinate Measuring Machine(CMM) is most accurate for this purpose, it is very time consuming. To enhance the data aquisition speed for scuptured surfaces, active vision with reflecctometric method was used for our system. A fter the data acquisition, the system automatically generates cutting tool path for the 3-axis milling of the object. The fullyintegrated system from the data acquisition to the NC-code generation was implemented with IBN-PC/386 and necessary hardwears.

In this paper, a novel detection method called the joint multiple frequency cell (JMFC) detection is addressed for spread spectrum code acquisition in the presence of residual Doppler frequency offset (RDFO). When the RDFO exists, the correlation peak used for detection during the acquisition process is split into several lower neighboring peaks, resulting in severe degradation in the detection performance, and consequently, in the overall acquisition performance. In the JMFC detection, a decision variable for detection is formed by combining several consecutive correlator outputs, so that the reduction in the correlation value due to the RDFO can be alleviated. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can offer better detection performance over the conventional scheme based on the cell-by-cell detection.

A 2-dimensional search process in the time and frequency domain is required to acquire the GPS signal, when the code phase and the carrier Doppler for the specified GPS satellite signal are unknown. This paper proposes a new scheme, called Squared-D Searching Method, which can reduce the number of carrier frequency candidates, and a new scheme, named extended Multiple Correlator(XMC), which can reduce the number of code phase candidates. The Squared-D Searching Method can take the twice of Doppler frequency, therefore it can find carrier frequency candidates. The XMC is different from the general multiple correlator in that a combined form of the locally generated codes is used for despreading. Also, this paper tries to analyze a signal detection probability of a GPS receiver under more realistic environments. The result shows that lower detection probability can be obtained when the phase differences among the codes are larger in the correlation arms of a multiple correlator. This phenomenon is not easy to explain with the previous results. And besides, the result shows that proposed acquisition schemes give better performance than a conventional acquisition scheme.
