As a new type of a linear decorrelating receiver, the Pseudo-Decorrelator was presented for asynchronous code division multiple access systems by the author. In this paper, the concept of the Pseudo-Decorrelator is extended to derive a multiuser receiver for WCDMA uplink systems over a Rayleigh fading multipath channel. Starting with the analysis of the multiple access components of the decision statistics, a non-square cross-correlation matrix for each bit is obtained. This cross-correlation matrix is then inverted, and the inverted matrix is applied to the decision statistics obtained from a conventional receiver. This receiver is near-far resistant and outperforms conventional receivers even for the cases in which synchronization errors, such as time delay errors and phase errors exist.

We develop a low complexity cooperative diversity protocol for low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) based wireless sensor networks. A cross layer approach is used to obtain spatial diversity in the physical layer. In this paper, a simple modification in clustering algorithm of the LEACH protocol is proposed to exploit virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) based user cooperation. In lieu of selecting a single cluster-head at network layer, we proposed M cluster-heads in each cluster to obtain a diversity order of M in long distance communication. Due to the broadcast nature of wireless transmission, cluster-heads are able to receive data from sensor nodes at the same time. This fact ensures the synchronization required to implement a virtual MIMO based space time block code (STBC) in cluster-head to sink node transmission. An analytical method to evaluate the energy consumption based on BER curve is presented. Analysis and simulation results show that proposed cooperative LEACH protocol can save a huge amount of energy over LEACH protocol with same data rate, bit error rate, delay and bandwidth requirements. Moreover, this proposal can achieve higher order diversity with improved spectral efficiency compared to other virtual MIMO based protocols.

This paper reports a cognitive radio network architecture based on overloaded multicarrier direct sequence code division multiple access (O-MC-DS-CDMA). The O-MC-DSCDMA technique combines CDMA with a multicarrier modulation technique to overcome the channel fading effects. In this technique, secondary users are enabled to share the available bandwidth with the existing primary users. Two sets of orthogonal Gold codes are used to support the primary and secondary users simultaneously. The orthogonality between the spreading codes is lost due to the non-zero cross correlation between the codes and the timing synchronization error in the uplink transmission, which causes interference between primary and secondary users. This paper proposes two modified hybrid parallel/successive interference cancellation techniques for primary and secondary user base station receivers with multiple antennas to suppress the interference among users. Interference among the same group of users is cancelled by parallel interference cancellation and the interference among groups is cancelled using successive interference cancellation. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed modified interference cancellation techniques show better BER performance over conventional interference cancellation techniques.

This paper shows that the OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) system is robust to multipath than CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) system and it has a strong possibility to be utilized as a supplementing wireless location system for the forthcoming portable internet network. The OFDM system based on IEEE 802.16e is a wireless TDD (Time Division Duplex) OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) system providing portable internet services in 2.3 GHz frequency band and is scheduled in service in Korea starting in 2006. In this paper, multipath error is calculated using a two-ray model and compared with that of a CDMA system which is following IS-95. The OFDM system shows a maximum multipath error of 3 m while a CDMA system shows a maximum multipath error of 61 m. For this simulation, an early-late technique is used. This technique is usually used to match synchronization of signal in DLL(Delay Lock Loop).

Polishing work for a curved surface die demands simple and repetitive operations and requires much time while it demands also high precision. Therefore it is operated by a skilled worker in handiwork. However the workers avoid gradually a polishing work because of the poor environmental conditions such as dust and noise. In order to reduce the polishing time and to alleviate the problem of shortage of skilled workers, an automatic polishing robot system which is composed of a polishing robot with two degrees of freedom motion and pneumatic system is developed, and it is attached to machining center with three degrees of freedom. The system keeps the polishing tool vertically on the surface of die and maintains constant pneumatic pressure. The polishing robot with DSP(digital signal processor) controller is controlled by sliding mode control. A synchronization between machining center and polishing robot is accomplished by using M code of machining center. A performance experiment for polishing work is executed by the developed automatic polishing robot system. The result shows that the developed automatic polishing robot has a good performance and well polished workpiece surface is obtained.

DNP3(Distributed Network Protocol) is one of the most representative protocols which is used in SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system. IEC 62351 is listing the integrity, confidentiality, availability and non-repudiation or accountability as the security requirement. However, IEEE Std. 1815 that is DNP3 standards does not define a mechanism for non-repudiation or accountability. In this paper, we propose a non-repudiation of origin technique about the sender of critical ASDU and implement the proposed scheme using software such as OpenSSL and SCADA source code library.

A narrow loop noise bandwidth method is desirable to reduce the error of raw measurements due to the thermal noise. However, it degrades the performance of GPS initial synchronization such as mean acquisition time. And it restricts the loop noise bandwidth to a fixed value determined by the lower bound of the allowable range of carrier-to-noise power ratio, so that it is difficult to optimally track GPS signal. In order to make up for the weak points of the fixed-type narrow loop noise bandwidth method and simultaneously minimize the error of code and carrier measurements, this paper proposes a stepwise-type adaptive bandwidth algorithm for DGPS reference receivers. In this paper, it is shown that the proposed adaptive bandwidth algorithm can provide more accurate measurements than those of the fixed-type narrow loop noise bandwidth method, in view of analyzing the simulation results between two signal tracking algorithms. This paper also carries out sensitivity analysis of the proposed adaptive bandwidth algorithm due to the estimation uncertainty of carrier-to-noise power ratio. Finally the analysis results are verified by the experiment using GPS simulator.

In concurrent object-oriented languages, inheritance and concurrence are the primary features. But concurrent objects and inheritance have conflicting characteristics thereby simultaneously use of them causes the problem, so called inheritance anomaly, which requires code redefinition of inherited methods to maintain integrity of objects. In this paper, to solve this inheritance anomaly without broken of encapsulation, we introduce the state abstraction concept and map internal states of the encapsulated object into abstract slates. And also, we design the inheritance interface for efficient inheritance. Through the inheritance interface containing abstract state set, though redefinition of the method is incurred, we can remove the influence of other classes in inheritance hierarchy. And also, we can solve the inheritance anomaly problems.

The average bit error rate of wideband CDMA in forward link is evaluated for frequency and timing errors in multipath Rayleigh fading channel. The channel BER is evaluated analytically and information BER is investigated with simulation. The performance degradation due to the code/frequency synchronization errors was obtained through simulation for particular two coding schemes - convolutional codes and turbo codes. The results show 1dB degradation due to Tc/4 timing error and 0.5dB degradation due to 50Hz frequency error, for both coding schemes.

In the wideband code division access (WCDMA) systems, a pilot channel is used to determine WCDMA network coverage, cell identification, synchronization, timing acquisition and tracking, user-set handoff, channel estimation, and so on. A wireless repeater, which is deployed in the urban area for the WCDMA system to meet the growing demand on wireless communication services, has the possibility to receive several pilot signals from a large number of base stations, however, cannot distinguish its service base station's signal among them. This pilot interference results in frequent handoffs in the user equipment, which degrades the radio reception, transmission efficiency, quality of service, and channel capacity and increases the unwanted power consumption. In this paper, thus, we propose a pilot pollution interference cancellation scheme using one of the adaptive estimation algorithms, normalized least mean square (NLMS), which is applicable to a wireless repeater. We carried out link-level and network-level computer simulations to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme in a wireless repeater. The simulation results verify the bit error rate (BER) improvement in the link level and the call drop probability improvement in the network level.
