In this paper, the IC (Integrated Circuit) for multi-channel asynchronous communication was designed by using FPGA and VHDL language. The existing chips for asynchronous communication that has been used commercially are composed of one to two channels. Therefore, when communication system with two channels or more is made, the cost becomes high and it becomes complicated for communication system to be realized and also has very little buffer, load that is placed into Microprocessor increases heavily in case of high speed communication or transmission of high-capacity data. The designed IC was improved the function and performance of communication system and reduced costs by designing 8 asynchronous communication channels with only one IC, and it has the size of transmitter/receiver buffer with 256 bytes respectively and consequently high speed communication became possible. To detect errors between communications, it was designed with digital filter and check-sum logic and channel MUX logic so that the malfunction can be prevented and errors can be detected more easily and input/output port regarding each communication channel can be used flexibly and consequently the reliability of system was improved. It was composed and simulated logic of VHDL described by using Cyclone II Series EP2C35F672C8 and QuartusII V8.1 of ALTERA company. In order to show the performance of designed IC, the test was conducted successfully in QuartusII simulation and experiment and the excellency was compared with TL16C550A of TI (Texas Instrument) company and ATmegal28 general-purpose micro controller of ATMEL company that are used widely as chips for asynchronous communication.

In this paper, a digital modem for the medical implant communication system will operate in 402~405 Mhz wide-band in international standardization frequency was designed and implemented. The ${\pi}$/4-D8PSSK modem, which is not only power effective with a good low-powered characteristics but also band-width effective, can overcome the shortcoming of PSK. The proposed digital modem was verified through the wave comparison based on the result of Matlab simulation and the wave from the measured one using Chipscope, and implemented with FPGA.

In the impulse radio ultra-wideband communication systems, the residual timing offset exists when the acquisition and tracking of the timing synchronization is well done. And the offset affects the performance of the system dramatically. In order to compensate the offset, we present the digital phase-locked loop that uses the reference signal in the correlation detection receiver. First, we show the degradation of BER performance that is caused by the offset, and then compensation process of the timing tracker and performance improvement. In this paper, the timing detector in the tracker operates at the sampling period of frame level uses the correlation between received and reference signal. Also, we present the performance comparison by using the computer simulation results for different Gaussian monocycle pulses.

Many industrial operations require continuous or nearly-continuous operation of machines, which if interrupted can result in significant financial loss. The condition monitoring of these machines has received considerable attention recent years. Rapid developments in semiconductor, computing, and communication with a remote site have led to a new generation of sensor called "smart" sensors which are capable of wireless communication with a remote site. The purpose of this research is the development of smart sensor using which can on-line perform condition monitoring. This system is addressed to detect conditions that may lead to equipment failure when it is running. Moreover it will reduce condition monitoring expense using low cost MEMS accelerometer. This sensor can receive data in real-time or periodic time from MEMS accelerometer. Furthermore, this system is capable for signal preprocessing task (High Pass Filter, Low Pass Filter and Gain Amplifier) and analog to digital converter (A/D) which is controlled by CPU. A/D converter that converts 10bit digital data is used. This sensor communicates with a remote site PC using TCP/IP protocols. Wireless LAN contain IEEE 802.11i-PSK or WPA (PSK, TKIP) encryption. Developed sensor executes performance tests for data acquisition accuracy estimations.

In a marine ubiquitous sensor network (USN) system using expensive sensors in the harsh ocean environment, it is very important to discover failures and devise recovery techniques to deal with such failures. Therefore, in order to perform failure modeling, this study analyzes the USN-based real-time water quality monitoring service of the Gaduri Aqua Farms at Songdo Island of Yeosu, South Korea and devises methods of discovery and recovery of failure by classifying the types of failure into system element failure, communication failure, and data failure. In particular, to solve problems from the perspective of data, this study defines data integrity and data consistency for use in identifying data failure. This study, by identifying the exact type of failure through analysis of the cause of failure, proposes criteria for performing relevant recovery. In addition, the experiments have been made to suggest the duration as to how long the data should be stored in the gateway when such a data failure occurs.

Watermarking is one of the methods that insist on a copyright as it append digital signals in digital informations.(image, video, ets) In this paper, we proposed a digital watermarking algorithm which improved Gradient of DCT Coefficient. This method targets MPEG-2 TM5 system and watermarking process is to be performed during Quantization DCT. Watermark was inserted on Y components of each frames. The PSNR difference between the compressed images with and without watermarking was only 0..23dB. In each case that the resulting image was reusable the normalized correlation between the extracted watermark and the original one was above 0.99.

In this paper we present a new method of measuring the relative distance of two point objects in three-dimensional space by using phase-shifting digital holography. In our system the reference beam of a spherical wave is used instead of a plane wave. The system is computer simulated and built on an optical table for experiments. It is shown from computer simulations and experiments that the relative distance can be measured without the exact information on the reference beam used in the hologram record. It is shown from experiments that the relative distance between two point objects separated by 0.5 cm in the distance of about 300 cm from the CCD can be measured with an error less than 10％.

In this study, multi-channel digital hearing aid algorithm for low power system is proposed. First, MDCT(Modified Discrete Cosine Transform) method converts time domain of input speech signal into frequency domain of it. Output signal from MDCT makes a group about each channel, and then each channel signal adjusts a gain using LCF(Loudness Compensation Function) table depending on hearing loss of an auditory person. Finally, compensation signal is composed by TDAC and IMDCT. Its all of process make progress 16-bit fixed-point operation. We use fast-MDCT instead of MDCT for reducing system complexity and previously computed tables instead of log computation for estimating a gain. This algorithm evaluate through computer simulation.

In this paper, we have fabricated the position detection system with LED and optical sensor to detect a position and trace of robot through visible light communication (VLC). The fabricated position detection system did not have been affected by sunlight in outdoor and a fluorescent light in building. Because 4 LEDs, respectively, transmitted different signals, we have known the position of robot. And we have also observed a trajectory of robot in real time.

Picture archiving and communications systems(PACS) for digital image distribution, archiving and transmission, represent the modern hospital. PACS is the medical image management system within a hospital, whereas teleradiology system is the medical image communication system between remote sites. PACS and teleradiology systems usually consists of mainly four parts such as image acquisition part, image storage and database part, Image communication network part, and image display workstation part. Among these components comprised In the PACS, workstations are the point of contact between a PACS and the radiologist or referring physician. Therefore, the acceptance of PACS is highly dependent on workstation functionality, performance and easy of use compared with the conventional film-based radiology. This paper describes overall configurations and some requirements of PACS and teleradiology.
