In discrete multi-tone (DMT)-based very high bit-rate digital subscriber line (VDSL) systems, the ingressed RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) accompanied by transmitted signal at the receiver is known to cause the spectralleakage by the finite-point FFT, resulting in significant performance degradation.0 this paper, we propose a RFIcancellation technique which can compensate the ingressed RFI efficiently, especially for a high data-rate VDSLsystem. The proposed technique compensates the performance degradation of e VDSL system due to RFI byusing a time-domain RFI canceller whose coefficients are obtained from the estimated center frequency of RFI inthe frequency domain under the assumption that the ingressed RFI is a narrow-band signal compared to VDSLsampling frequency. The proposed technique requires no training symbol and convergence period, and worksproperly even when spectral shape of the ingressed RFI is unknown or arbitrary. Feasibility of the proposedtechnique is demonstrated via a computer simulation by comparing its performance with the performance of theprevious RFI cancellation technique.

In order to use more efficiently limited frequency resources at the broadcasting band and to eliminate blanket area of the terrestrial broadcasting and to improve broadcasting quality. The importance of repeaters has increasing continuously. However, in case of T-DMB digital on channel repeater in OFDM systems, some of the signal radiated feedback again at the receiver antenna. So it generates feedback signal interference in repeater system. Also phase noise increases ICI(Inter Carrier Interference). It affects seriously the frequency domain equalizer. In this paper, we remove the feedback signal interference by LMS with correlation. Also we propose an effective equalizer algorithm that can remove ICI caused by phase noise and the power amplifier's back-off. In this simulation results, this system is satisfied the performance of BER=$10^{-4}$ at less than SNR=14 dB after compensation of phase noise.

Into the 1990s, there have been changes in perception of pop culture consumers by making a distinction between groups that are active, critical and creative. This study aims to establish a theoretical reasoning for conventions organized and participated voluntarily by fans, which has been especially noticeable in the American subculture for a long time, while investigating how fans and all the parties concerned interact at conventions then to expand the imaginary world. To this end, an analysis has been carried out on the conventions for the particular American TV series of Supernatural. The results show that the reason for this drama series maintaining such enduring vitality as if a living thing is attributable to the special bond of sympathy developed between fans and actors and the following interactions between them. Furthermore, in the aspect of cultural sociology, a piece of work can only be completed through unconstrained interpretation of the work and the resultant recreation by the creator and the receiver, which has been ascertained by this study.

The purpose of Email system is used to transmit important information between companies in today. But Email system has vulnerabilities such that changing email address of sender by attacker. So it is important to authenticate mail server and user using mail server. This paper proposed mail proxy located between mail servers that evaluate authority and authenticate sender and receiver. The proposed email platform has some functions to compose trusted domain and to authenticate mail servers in the domain. Also, if sender and recipient are valid users in mail system, each exchanges a key for confidentiality and the sender sends an e-mail encrypted with exchanged key to recipient. In this paper, we propose a key exchange scheme in proposed platform and verify this protocol using Casper which is the formal analysis tool. In the future research, we will study the overall platform of the domain configuration for the security of mail.

In this paper, we studied the design and implementation of fading compensation systems at aspects of narrowband mobile communication using TTIB SSB. The mobile radio channel with multipath fading places fundamental limitations on the performance of wireless communication systems. The multipath fading is compensated using pilot tone in TTIB SSB. The TTIB transceiver was implemented using the prevailing digital signal processing (DSP) techniques and compensation for the multipath fading was incorporated in the receiver in the form of DSP algorithm. In order to evaluate fading compensation performance in TTIB transceiver, we first used computer simulation. In the simulation results, we found that the TTIB transceiver could compensate for the multipath fading as expected. Second, we carried out some experiments on TTIB transceiver implementation with DSP boards and later with hardwares including RF circuits with center frequency of 145MHz. Through these experiments, we found that fading compensation performance in TTIB transceiver was almost as good as that obtained from simulation.

In Japan, the specification for digital terrestrial television broadcasting systems has been approved for employing a transmission scheme for ISDB-T, which can accommodate HDTV service and portable mobile reception by adapting segmentation of frequency. In this paper, we have developed 3.5 inch mobile TV according to One-Seg system and presented the results of our development. In addition, we introduce two diversity schemes to compensate the defect that signal is interrupted when the portable TV is moving fast. In order to achieve a reliable communication in One-Seg system, we introduce STD(space time diversity) which uses more than 2 antennas at TX and cooperative reception diversity which utilizes signal-exchanging between different mobile terminals. And, its performance enhancements to reception reliability of previous system are evaluated by computer simulations.

DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial) is an important multimedia broadcasting technology capable of high data-rate transmission and adopted by Europe. OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is the backbone technique employed in DVB-T to support multimedia services that have various bandwidths. Unfortunately, an OFDM signal has a large PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). In this paper, we investigate the performance of a simple PAPR reduction scheme for the DVB-T system, which requires no change of a receiver structure or no additional information transmission. The approach we employed is clipping in the time and frequency domains. The time-domain clipping is carried out with a predetermined clipping level while the frequency-domain clipping is done within EVM (Error Vector Magnitude). This approach is suboptimal with lower computational complexity compared to the optimal method. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed one is getting more effective at lower modulation levels and with more allowed constellation error.

This paper presents the description of a 4-bit digital p-i-n diode phase shifter that was designed for quasimillimeter wave band satellite receiver to use in phased-array systems. 180$^{\circ}$ and 90$^{\circ}$ cells are designed in reflection type that consists of a 3-dB rat-race hybrid coupler, 45$^{\circ}$ and 22.5$^{\circ}$ cells are designed in loaded-line type to reduce the size of circuit and the number of diode to be used. The 4-bit phase shifter uses eight p-i-n diodes mounted in the microstrip circuit. The average insertion loss for the 16 phase states is 6.92dB over the 19.8~20.3 GHz band and maximum phase error is 6.2$^{\circ}$ at 20 GHz.

In this paper, the sensitivity of massive antenna arrays and digital beamforming to radio frequency (RF) chain in-phase quadrature-phase (I/Q) imbalance is studied and analyzed. The analysis shows that massive antenna arrays are increasingly sensitive to such RF chain imperfections, corrupting heavily the radiation pattern and beamforming capabilities. Motivated by this, novel RF-aware digital beamforming methods are then developed for automatically suppressing the unwanted effects of the RF I/Q imbalance without separate calibration loops in all individual receiver branches. More specifically, the paper covers closed-form analysis for signal processing properties as well as the associated radiation and beamforming properties of massive antenna arrays under both systematic and random RF I/Q imbalances. All analysis and derivations in this paper assume ideal signals to be circular. The well-known minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer and a widely-linear (WL) extension of it, called WL-MVDR, are analyzed in detail from the RF imperfection perspective, in terms of interference attenuation and beamsteering. The optimum RF-aware WL-MVDR beamforming solution is formulated and shown to efficiently suppress the RF imperfections. Based on the obtained results, the developed solutions and in particular the RF-aware WL-MVDR method can provide efficient beamsteering and interference suppressing characteristics, despite of the imperfections in the RF circuits. This is seen critical especially in the massive antenna array context where the cost-efficiency of individual RF chains is emphasized.

In this paper, we propose an IoT based smart outlet system for one-person household with electric safety, electric energy consumption management and transmission of messages to the reserved contacts by connecting the emergency network. The proposed smart outlet system is implemented by parsing packet data and protocol between server, module, application and WiFi AP receiver. The WiFi AP built for communication can be used not only for the outlet but also for the gas barrier, the door lock and the like. In addition, the proposed method can provide the remote monitoring function by receiving the amount of power of the receptacle received through the AC current sensor (SCT-013) in real time. The smart outlet system is expected to be capable of automatically shutting off the power in case of emergency through automatic power use analysis in addition to the standby power cutoff function.
