A new dual-mode algorithm for blind equalization of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signals is proposed. To solve the problem that the constant modulus algorithm (CMA) converges to the constellation with the arbitrary phase rotation, with the modification of the CMA, the proposed algorithm accomplishes blind equalization and carrier phase recovery simultaneously. In addition, the dual-mode algorithm combining the modified constant modulus algorithm (MCMA) with decision-directed (DD) algorithm achieves the performance enhancement of blind convergence speed and steady-state residual ISI. So we can refer the proposed algorithm to as a scheme for joint blind equalization and carrier phase recovery. Simulation results for i.i.d. input signals confirm that the dual-mode algorithm results in faster convergence speed, samller residual ISI, and better carrier phase recovery than those of the CMA and DD algorithm without any significant increase in computational complexity.

Electrons and phonons in chalcogenide-based materials play are important factors in the performance of an optical data storage media and thermoelectric devices. However, the fundamental kinetics of carriers in chalcogenide materials remains controversial, and active debate continues over the mechanism responsible for carrier relaxation. In this study, we investigated ultrafast carrier dynamics in an multilayered $\{Sb(3{\AA})/Te(9{\AA})\}n$ thin film during the transition from the amorphous to the crystalline phase using optical pump terahertz probe spectroscopy (OPTP), which permits the relationship between structural phase transition and optical property transitions to be examined. Using THz-TDS, we demonstrated that optical conductance and carrier concentration change as a function of annealing temperature with a contact-free optical technique. Moreover, we observed that the topological surface state (TSS) affects the degree of enhancement of carrier lifetime, which is closely related to the degree of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). The combination of an optical technique and a proposed carrier relaxation mechanism provides a powerful tool for monitoring TSS and SOC. Consequently, the response of the amorphous phase is dominated by an electron-phonon coupling effect, while that of the crystalline structure is controlled by a Dirac surface state and SOC effects. These results are important for understanding the fundamental physics of phase change materials and for optimizing and designing materials with better performance in optoelectronic devices.

As an application of SDINS/GPS integration for its synergistic results, the SDINS alignments utilizing GPS carrier phase rate measurements. A measurement model of GPS carrier phase rate is derived in order to be used with SDINS alignment process. For in-flight alignment, the performance of the suggested SDINS/GPS integration method is analyzed using the covariance analysis and its results are confirmed by those of van test. Consequently, it is shown that all states of the SDINS integrated system by utilizing GPS carrier phase rate measurements can be estimated more efficiently than a general SDINS/GPS during in-flight alignment.

One of the error sources for microwave ranging is the instability of the oscillator that drives the microwave signals. Dual one-way ranging (DOWR) minimizes the oscillator effect by combining two one-way carrier phase signals from two transmitter/receiver instrument. The DOWR is first implemented in the GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) satellites. Direct evaluation of the DOWR is not possible due to its extremely high accuracy. The flight performance of the GRACE DOWR is analyzed by applying several indirect methods. Comparison with the design noise level is discussed.

This paper is concerned with the vehicle platooning in the AHS (Automated Highway Systems). For this, a relative navigation system is developed for the vehicles operating as a platoon. The relative navigation system is based on two sensors including GPS and MMWR (Millimeter-Wave Radar) and the federated Kalman Iter processing measurements of them. The architecture of this system requires GPS measurements of a preceding vehicle via communication link. Even if GPS measurements are available, they contain errors which are unacceptably high in vehicle platooning. Therefore, GPS carrier phase is considered. Integer ambiguities of GPS carrier phase measurements are determined by using MMWR ...

It is well-known that positioning accuracy can be improved by the use of carrier phase of GPS up to the centimeter level. In order to obtain good accuracy, we need to know integer ambiguity in the carrier phase accurately. In this paper, we propose a fast ambiguity determination method(FADM) which combines Kalman filtering and the search method, and show the improvement of the positioning performance by static and kinematic simulation compared with known methods such as Kalman filtering, LSAST (Least Squares Ambiguity Search Technique), ARCE(Ambiguity Resolution with Constratint Equation), LLL(Lenstra, Lenstra, and Lovasz) algorithms.

As an application of the GPS/SDINS integration for its synergistic results, the alignments of the SDINS utilizing GPS carrier phase rate measurements is introduced. A measurement model of GPS carrier phase rate, which does not require integer ambiguity determination process, is newly derived in order to be adopted with the SDINS in-flight alignment process. For in-flight alignment, the performance of the GPS/SDINS integration method suggested in this paper is analyzed using the covariance analysis.

Compared with generic GPS receiver, post-processing software GPS receiver has many advantages for high dynamic vehicle tracking. It has the advantage of the application of various tracking algorithms and aiding schemes. The post-processing system observes the carrier phase measurement data from the recorded GPS signals, detects and isolates the cycle slip. The observed carrier phase data and the raw data of the reference station are processed by carrier phase DGPS scheme. And the integer ambiguity resolution algorithm is used for resolving single frequency carrier phase ambiguity. The results of static and real flight test are presented and show that the proposed GPS translator processing system satisfies submeter accuracy.

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) based precise positioning using Real Time Kinematic (RTK) technique has been proposed as an enabler of the formation operation of moving vehicles. In RTK methods, the integer ambiguity of GNSS carrier phase measurements must be resolved. Although there have been many proposed algorithms for the integer ambiguity resolution, the widelane combination of carrier phase measurements and LAMBDA methods have gained the most popularity in literatures when dual frequency GNSS measurements were used. In this paper, we evaluated five alternative methods to determine relative positions of moving base and rover receivers; the round-off scheme of widelane carrier phase, instant least-squares and Kalman filter-based LAMBDA with widelane carrier phase, instant least-squares and Kalman filter-based LAMBDA with dual frequency measurements. The paper presented the performance of each method using flight test data, which showed their strength and weakness in the aspects of time-to-first-fix, ambiguity resolution success ratio, and relative position errors. Based on that, we provided practical recommendations of RTK operations for moving vehicles.

An improved carrier PWM method for three phase voltage source inverters is proposed. The basic idea of the proposed method is deleting unnecessary 1/3 of switchings in the saw tooth carrier PWM method. The lowest frequency of the remained harmonics of this method (when the modulation index is large) is about 50% higher and the maximum modulated voltage is about 15% higher than those of the triangular carrier PWM method. This method will be useful especially in the linear feedback current control and MOSFET inverters.
