Channel diversity is exploited to increase multiuser diversity gains in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. To this end, we propose an opportunistic channel switching method and evaluate this with different number of stations, number of channels, switching latency, and the average channel condition of stations.

Printed electronics is an emerging technology to realize various microelectronic devices via a cost-effective method. Here we demonstrated a high performance of p-channel and n-channel top-gate/bottom contact polymer field-effect transistors (FETs), and applications to elementary organic complementary inverter and ring oscillator circuits by inkjet processing. We could obtained high field-effect mobility more than $0.4\;cm^2/Vs$ for both of p-channel and n-channel FETs, and successfully measured inkjet-printed polymer inverters. The performance of devices highly depends on the selection of dielectrics, printing condition and device architecture. Optimized CMOS ring oscillators with p-type and n-type polymer transistors showed as high as 50 kHz operation frequency. This research was financially supported by development of next generation RFID technology for item level applications (2008-F052-01) funded by the ministry of knowledge economy (MKE).

In this study, the performance of a 32-quadrature amplitude position modulation (QAPM) system is analyzed under a Rician fading channel condition when the maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique is used in the receiver. The fading channel is modeled as a frequency non-selective slow Rician fading channel corrupted by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). QAPM is available to improve BER performance without amplifying transmit power, and MRC diversity makes the performance improvement of QAPM system even bigger by intentionally maximizing SNR. Error performances are shown for the 32-QAPM system and a 32-phase silence shift keying (PSSK) system in order to examine the effects of fading severity, for various values of the Rician parameter, K. The dependence of error rates on MRC diversity is also analyzed. The simulation results show that the BER performance of the 32-QAPM system is better than that of the 32-PSSK system under the above mentioned conditions.

This paper reports the studies of the inversion layer mobility in p-channel Si MOSFET's under hot-carrier degradated condition. The validity of relationship of hot carrier degradations between the surface effective mobility and field effect mobility and are examined. The effective mobility(${\mu}$$\_$eff/) is derived from the channel conductances, while the field-effect mobility(${\mu}$$\_$FE/) is obtained from the transconductance. The characteristics of mobility curves can be divided into the 3 parts of curves. It was reported that the mobility degradation is due to phonon scattering, coulombic scattering and surface roughness. We are measured the mobility slope in curves with DC-stress [V$\_$g/=-3.1v]. It was found that the mobility(${\mu}$$\_$eff/ and ${\mu}$$\_$FE/) of p-MOSFET's was increased by increasing stress time and decreasing channel length. Because of the increasing stress time and increasing V$\_$g/ is changed oxide reliability and increased vertical field.

The dynamic behavior of CANDU nuclear fuel channel was analyzed by the use of 3-dimensional finite element method, under the various fault conditions such as a fault in the end fitting support and the removal/migration of the garter spring in the fuel channel, in order to predict the dynamic behavior for a degraded symptoms of CANDU nuclear fuel channel. Moreover, the frequency response analysis for possible fault conditions was also peformed considering the effects of the pressure tube vibration and flow-induced vibration by the coolant flow. From the analysis of the frequency responses, defects in the garter spring have influenced the changes of 2nd and 3rd modes and all the important modes are varied for the failure in the journal bearing in the end fitting body.

Cognitive Radio is an advanced enabling technology for the efficient utilization of vacant spectrum due to its ability to sense the spectrum environment. It is important to determine accurate spectrum utilization of the primary system in a cognitive radio environment. In order to define the spectrum utilization state, many CR systems use what is known as the quiet period (QP) method. However, even when using a QP, interference can occur. This causes reduced system throughput and contrary to the basic condition of cognitive radio. In order to reduce the interference time, a frequency-hopping algorithm is proposed here. Additionally, to complement the loss of throughput in the FH, a HMM-based channel prediction algorithm and a channel allocation algorithm is proposed. Simulations were conducted while varying several parameters. The findings show that the proposed algorithm outperforms conventional channel allocation algorithms.

In this paper, we apply a digital modulation scheme called Multi-Carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) to the technique for cochannel interference cancellation using reference correlator, previously proposed. The cancellatoin method will be effective for reducing the interference components which are other users'signal components in a common channel, but fading effect of channel remains as the degrading factor of channel condition. For compensating it, MC-CDMA scheme is introduced to combat agianst the multipath fading. We analize above system and derive the average probability of error in AWGN and Rayleigh fading environment.

Soft handoff provided in CDMA cellular system has much advantage such as better service quality, interference control and low call dropping probability. In this paepr, we propose an optimum resource reservationscheme for handoff calls in the CDMA cellular system to increase the soft handoff probability in handoff. In the proposed scheme, resources of each frquency channel are reserved for handoff according to the number of its neighbot cells serving the same frequency channel. A performance analysis shows that the soft handoff probability of the proposed scheme is higher than that of conventional scheme disregarding the condition of frquency assignment of neighbot cells, and that ever frequency channel served by neighbor cells should reserve more than one traffic channel for handoff to get good performance.

Recently, MIMO communications are regarded as one of the most promising emerging wireless technologies. This paper investigates MIMO wireless systems and their applications in a railway communication system. We firstly discuss railway communication environments including propagation characteristics and radio channel modeling. Next, we consider channel estimate methods, which is a crucial issue under rapidly varying channel condition due to the movement of trains. Channel estimation methods for MIMO systems are addressed and the effect of estimation error is studied. We also have performed simulations for transmit beamforming system and STBC(Space-time block coding) to investigate the performance of MIMO schemes in railway systems.

A mesoscale channel was designed to observe the flame stabilization at low strain rate conditions (< $10s^{-1}$). At this condition, the behavior of partially premixed flame was explored by changing a channel size and the oxygen ratio in the oxidant. In this work, experiment is conducted for propane case and it was compared with methane case of previous one. Conclusively, it can be observed that the strain rate of flame extinction and starting point of oscillation were varied with oxygen ratio. Moreover we can understand the effects of enhanced oxygen ratio of oxidant and flame behavior at low strain rate conditions.
