We randomly assigned 61 healthy subjects(male 14, female 47) to compare the experimental pain threshold and skin temperature between high mode TENS and burst mode TENS. In this study, 61 subjects were divided into three groups ; high mode TENS(n=20), burst mode TENS (n=20), and control group(n=21). Experimental pain thresholds and skin temperatures were measured before, immediately after cessation of stimulation, and at 30 minutes post stimulation. Stimulation was applied to the dorsal surface of the forearm(L14, LI10). Pain thresholds were measured by chronaxie meter. Skin temperature were measured by electrical digital thermometer. The results are as follows ; 1. There were no statistical difference in the pain threshold and skin temperature at before TENS stimulation among the three groups(p>0.05). 2. The pain threshold and skin temperature in burst mode TENS group was significantly higher and longer effect than that in high mode TENS group and control group(p<0.01). 3. The pain threshold in burst mode TENS group decreased to prestimulation levels by 30 minutes poststimulation. 4. The skin temperature in burst mode TENS group decreased to prestimulation levels by 20 minutes poststimulation. 5. The skin temperature was significantly difference among three group at immediately after, and at 30 minutes poststimulation and the skin temperature in burst mode TENS group was significantely higher than that in two groups(p<0.001). 6. The increasing rate of pain threshold in high mode TENS group after immediately cassation of stimulation was 24.3%(p<0.001). 7. The increasing rate of pain threshold in burst mode TENS group after immediately cessation of stimulation was 93.5% (p<0.001).

We apply IEEE 802.3 frame burst mode (FBM) to the Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) downstream link and compare its performance with non-frame burst mode for various traffic patterns. Although in light traffic loads (p<0.5) the efficiency of the FBM mechanism is not significant, it does feature high throughput, small jitter, low queue occupancy, and short queuing delay in optical line terminals under various traffic loads with various numbers of optical network units (ONUs). The FBM performance always approaches that of full-duplex mode, especially under heavy traffic loads (p>0.5). Moreover, an increase in number of ONUs will decrease the burst performance. Our work shows that FBM scheme is very useful for EPON transmission and has low design complexity.

In this paper, we proposed a burst mode AGC loop and preamble detector applicable for VDL(VHF Digital Link) mode-2 using D8PSK modulation scheme and the performance analysis of proposed schemes is described. Generally the AGC scheme can be divided into two types, continuos and burst mode AGC. The continuos mode is performed well only with an analog feedback AGC loop. But the analog feedback AGC loop is not suitable for burst mode since its gain lock time is more than preamble duration, which causes the preamble detector misses preamble. Hence a fast digital AGC loop is required for burst mode. Also the AGC loop has to be designed with full gain during idle time to detect bursts although the signal level is very low. If the time to acquire gain lock is slow, the preamble detector fail to detect burst due to saturation of a lot of preamble samples. The receiver performance might be down even if the burst was detected because the preamble is used to estimate several parameters need to demodulation at receiver. In this paper we analysed relationships between the AGC loop and preamble detector. we present an AGC loop and preamble detector in burst mode.

This paper describes a novel burst-mode clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit which can be used for 622Mbps burst mode applications. The CDR circuit is basically a phase locked loop (PLL) having two phase detectors (PDs), one for the reference clock and the other for the NRZ data, whose operations are controlled by an external control signal. This CDR was fabricated in a 1-poly 5-metal $0.25{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. Jitter generation, burst/continuous mode data receptions were tested. Operational frequency range is 320Mhz~720Mhz and BER is less than 1e-12 for PRBS31 at 622Mhz. For the same data sequence, the extracted clock jitter is less than 8ps rms. Power consumption of 100mW was measured without I/O circuits.

This paper describes a real-time monitoring system in Ethernet passive optical networks (EPON) that uses burst-mode fiber Bragg grating (FBG) optical sensors. The FBG interrogation unit in the optical line terminal (OLT) transmits the monitoring wavelength to optical network units (ONUs). The FBG sensor unit in each ONU returns a burst-mode monitoring signal to the OLT. As the system applies time division multiple access (TDMA), a uniform Bragg wavelength can be used to monitor the EPON system. The FBG interrogation unit analyzes the received burst-mode monitoring signals and outputs fault information on the ONU branches in EPON. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed monitoring system based on TDMA. In addition, we compared the proposed TDMA-based monitoring system with a WDMA-based monitoring system.

Recently, the development of passive optical networks (PON) for FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) have been actively conducted. In PON, a burst-mode transceiver is one of key modules. In this paper, we have made the protype module of a 155.52 Mpbs optical burst-mode transceiver with commercially available chips and then have measured the performance. Also, a new method of burst-mode clock recovery have been proposed. The burst-mode clock recovery implemented by using CPLD(Complex Programmable Logic Device) has coupled with the above burst-mode transceiver and has been tasted.

We designed a burst mode optical receiver for 1.25Gbps PON(Passive Optical Network), fabricated it using $0.8{\mu}m$ BiCMOS foundry. We minimized the loss of the data in the front of the burst by reducing AGC(Automatic Gain Control) signal generation time using an exponential amplifier. We confirmed that AGC of the burst mode optical receiver functioned well and showed good performance in measurement. However, although the eye of the eye pattern was opened the jitter characteristic was deteriorated due to the heavy waveform distortion.

In this paper, a newsynchronization technique applied to burst-mode communication is proposed. A synchronization technique is to estimate carrier frequency and phase offsets in a noisy channel environment. A fundamental problem for estimating the parameters(carrier phase and frequency offsets) in burst-mode transmission is that the ways of pursuing estimation accuracy and transmission efficiency are always trade-off. To solve this problem, a new carrier recovery technique is proposed to improve the transmission efficiency with reliable performance especially at low S/N. In the proposed technique, the synchronization parameters are first estimated based on a data-aided feed-forward estimation scheme. Then, a phase tracker using decision-directed DPLL estimates the phase offset for the data portion of the burst data. From simulation results, it shows fast synchronization with shorter preamble maintaining reasonable BER performance at low S/N.
