Ti : $LiNbO_3$ traveling-wave phase optical modulators at wavelength 1.3㎛ have been designed and fabricated, focusing on the optical waveguide and asymmetric coplanar electrode structure. To improve the phase-mismatch of traveling-wave ACPS electrode, the characteristic impedance, effective microwave index, and electrode loss have been presented as a function of geometric parameters including electrode and buffer layer thickness. Low-loss channel optical waveguides on $LiNbO_3$ were fabricated by the Ti diffusion method with $O_2$ water-vapor environment. $2.5{\mu}m$ thick electrode was successfully fabricated by double-spin image reversal process. Modulation bandwidth was limited by a resonance at 2.9 GHz and modulation bandwidth up to 2.5GHz was approxirnately measured.

Asymmetric networks that the downlink bandwidth is larger than the uplink bandwidth may cause the degradation of the TCP performance due to the uplink congestion. In order to solve this problem, this paper designs and implements the Dynamic Segment Size Control mechanism which offers a suitable segment size for current networks. The proposed mechanism does not require any changes in customer premises but suppress the number of ACKs using segment reassembly technique to avoid the uplink congestion. The gateway which adapted the Dynamic Segment Size Control mechanism, detects the uplink congestion condition and dynamically measures the bandwidth asymmetric ratio and the packet loss ratio. The gateway reassembles some of segments received from the server into a large segment and transmits it to the client. This reduces the number of corresponding ACKs. In this mechanism, the SACK option is used when occurs the bit error during the transmission. Based on the simulation in the GEO satellite network environment, we analyzed the performance of the Dynamic Segment Size Control mechanism.

In this paper, we propose an asymmetric dipole antenna utilizing the metal case as a ground radiator for a pen-type wireless presenter which operates in the ISM frequency band(2.4~2.48 GHz). A normal mode helix mounted on the top end of the long metallic cylinder case which acts as the ground plane takes the form of the asymmetric dipole structure in the proposed antenna. The metallic cylinder case which performs as a radiating element increases the inherent narrow bandwidth and low gain of the helix. The effects of the hand contacts with the metal case on the antenna performance are measured and analyzed with a specially designed human phantom. Experimental results show that the -10 dB return loss bandwidth of the proposed antenna in free space(no hand contact) is 200 MHz that ranges from 2.3 to 2.5 GHz and the maximum gain is measured to be 5 dBi. Under the normal operating condition where the metal case is contacted with a human hand, the bandwidth is 480 MHz from 2.24 to 2.72 GHz. The maximum gain is 2 dBi, lowered by 3 dB due to the hand contact.

A systematic design for asymmetric coupled-section Marchand baluns is presented. Asymmetrically coupled transmission lines in multilayer configuration are exploited for constructing Marchand baluns. Design equations for characteristic impedance and electrical length of asymmetrical coupled transmission lines are derived for establishing a systematic design procedure. Novel Marchand balun based on these design equations is composed of two identical asymmetrical coupled transmission lines. However, contrary to the general conventional design approach where ranges for characteristic impedances of coupled lines are ambiguously capitalized, values for characteristic impedance and length are explicitly expressed. Our approach is fundamentally different from the design method using coupling coefficients where solution for coupling coefficient is inherently restricted. To verify the proposed method, one design example is performed for wideband Marchand balun in multilayer configuration, and is fabricated for verifying the design procedure proposed. Maintaining the return loss more than 10 dB, the bandwidth is measured from 0.43 to 1.0 GHz, where $S_{21}$ and $S_{31}$ show better than -4 dB. The measured phase and amplitude imbalances illustrate 0.5 dB and ${\pm}5^{\circ}$, respectively.

Wide- and flat-gain laser diodes were designed and fabricated from asymmetric multiple quantum well (AMQW) structures which consist of three compressively strained InGaAsP wells of different thicknesses. For a 400 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$-long lasers with as-cleaved facets, -1 ㏈ and -3 ㏈ gain bandwidth were 45 nm and 80 nm, respectively. For this AMQW structure, calculated gain spectra with various line broadening functions were compared with experimental results. We confirmed the calculated gain spectra using an asymmetric line broadening function were in good agreement with the measured data.

The broadcast environment has asymmetric communication aspect that is typically much greater communication bandwidth available from server to clients than in the opposite direction. In addition, most of mobile computing systems allow mostly read-only transactions from mobile clients for retrieving different types of information such as stock data, traffic information and mews updates. Since previous concurrency control protocols, however, do not consider such a particular characteristics, the performance degradation occurs when previous schemes are applied to the broadcast environment. In this paper, we propose the efficient concurrency control for query transaction in broadcast environment. The following requirements are satisfied by adapting weak consistency that is the appropriate correctness criterion of read-only transactions: (1) the mutual consistency of data maintained by the server and read by clients (2) the currency of data read by clients. We also use the serialization graph scheme to check the weak consistency efficiently. As a result, we improved a performance by reducing unnecessary aborts and restarts of read-only transactions caused when global serializability was adopted.

The broadcast environment has asymmetric communication aspect that is typically much greater communication bandwidth available from server to clients than in the opposite direction. In addition, mobile computing systems generate mostly read-only transactions from mobile clients for retrieving different types of information such as stock data, traffic information and news updates. Since previous concurrency control protocols, however, do not consider such a particular characteristics, the performance degradation occurs when previous schemes are applied to the broadcast environment. In this paper, we propose optimistic concurrency control based on timestamp interval for broadcast environment. The following requirements are satisfied by adapting weak consistency that is the appropriate correctness criterion of read-only transactions: (1) the mutual consistency of data maintained by the server and read by clients (2) the currency of data read by clients. We also adopt the timestamp Interval protocol to check the weak consistency efficiently. As a result, we improved a performance by reducing unnecessary aborts and restarts of read-only transactions caused when global serializability was adopted.

In this paper, an asymmetric WDM-EPON transmission scheme is proposed to be used in a high speed access network system, which is required to implement the convergence of broadcast and communication. WDM is used for downstream transmission from OLT to access nodes, satisfying wide bandwidth requirement for broadcasting and various multimedia services. And an EPON scheme, which is cheaper than WDM, is applied to upstream transmission where less bandwidth is required. A transmission test in physical layer was performed successfully and the results are provided. If ONUs are to be used in a home gateway, its protocol should be appropriate to its traffic pattern. Voice is sensitive to a time delay while data is not. A new dynamic bandwidth assignment protocol for PON system, which can cope with various types of data in access network is proposed and its performance is analysed. A maximum cycle time is specified to achieve the QoS of signals sensitive to time delay. And a minimum window is specified to prevent the downstream control signals from uprising. It is shown by simulation that the proposed EPON protocol can provide a better performance than previous ones.

The folded monopole antenna for applying mobile communications equipment and wireless devices is presented in this paper. By using the coplanar waveguide feed the operating bandwidth has improved. In addition, each individual resonant elements has occurred different capacitance through asymmetrical left and right ground planes; therefore, the bandwidth has kept and the impedance matching has stabilized. By measurement results, the impedance bandwidth under VSWR< 2.5:1 are $824{\sim}890$ MHz and the $1,500{\sim}2,170$ MHz, also radiation patterns has omni-directional characteristics. The maximum gains of the proposed antenna are 5.52, 0.64, 3.00, 0.94 and 1.85 dBi at 850, 1,575, 1,790, 1,930 and 2,050 MHz respectively. The proposed antenna will be adapted to the internal antenna of the mobile communication devices.

Distributed-queue Dual-Bus (DQDB) shows an unfair behavior in bandwidth allocation due to the nature of unidirectional bus architecture. The study on fairness control method for DQDB has been performed under specific load types such as equal Probability load. symmetric load and asymmetric load type. A client-server load type is more practical traffic pattern than specific load type in Web environments. In this paper, we propose an effective fairness control method to distribute DQDB network bandwidth fairly to all stations under Web environments. The proposed method directly calculates an access limit from the bandwidth demand pattern. Based on an access limit, it controls the allocation of bandwidth by yielding empty slots in clients to servers. And we were certain that it outperforms other mechanisms from simulation results.
