Chaos communication system can improve a system security due to characteristics of non-periodic, non-predictability, broadband signal and easy implementation. Also, chaos signal is sensitive to initial conditions of chaos map. By these reasons, security of chaos communication system is superior to digital communication system. BER performance of COOK modulation system is better than other chaos modulation systems, even if COOK modulation system uses an asynchronous receiver. However, security and safety of COOK modulated signal are worse than other chaos modulation systems, because information bits can be easily predicted from COOK modulated signal. In this paper, for security improvement of COOK modulated signal, we propose a novel Scrambling COOK modulation system by applying the scrambling method. Conventional COOK modulated signal can be predicted, because chaos signal is generated when data is only 1. However, proposed system cannot be predicted, because chaos signal is generated when data is 0 or 1. Therefore, security and safety of transmitted signal in scrambling COOK modulation system is superior to conventional COOK modulation system.

Currently almost all in-service-inspection techniques, applied in domestic nuclear power plants, are partial to field inspection technique. These kinds of techniques are related to managing nuclear power plants by the operation of foreign-produced inspection devices. There have been so many needsfor development of native in-service-inspection device because there is no native diagnosis device for nuclear power plant inspection yet in Korea. In this research, we developed several core techniques to make an automated ultrasonic pipe inspection system for nuclear power plants. A high performance multi-channel ultrasonic pulser/receiver module, an A/D converter module and a digital main CPU module were developed and the performance of the developed modules was verified. The S/N ratio, noise level and signal acquisition performance of the developed modules showed proper level as we designed in the beginning.

Terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting(T-DMB) is one of mobile broadcasting services, and the commercial service was started in December 2005 in Korea. The performance targets of T-DMB are providing VCD(video CD) quality video and FM radio quality audio. In recent years, the researches for providing high quality video or audio service on T-DMB environments have been being carried out. To provide high-quality video or audio service, some additional data should be transmitted to the receiver as well as T-DMB video and audio data. Since the data rate for one T-DMB program is low, it is important to transmit the additional data at a low bit rate. In this paper, we propose a packetizing method for efficient transmission of the additional data to provide multichannel audio service on T-DMB environment.

Testing is an important part of quality control in the software life cycle. One of the most important issues in the software testing is to generate the appropriate test cases. Generally, the software can be tested based on product understanding. However, it is not easy to create test cases that can ensure the quality of the software according to the clients' request. Especially, it is difficult to create test cases for abnormal or exceptional situations. In this paper, we present a novel approach to generate exceptional test cases at the design level of UML model. Furthermore, we describe the results of actual experiment where DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) parsing program is tested with previous method and also with the proposed method. The results implies that our proposed method of generating test cases for exceptional situations detect more faults than that of previous method by 7.08%.

This paper describes a GPS signal generator that can generate multiple satellite signals in real time at the RF level. It realizes the verified software algorithm on a FPGA. The algorithm models orbits and environmental errors such as ionospheric and tropospheric multipath. The position of a simulated receiver is one of simulation parameters. The hardware which consists of a digital logic board and an analog board can generate 16 simulated satellites signals at the same time. The users can generate spoofing signals and jamming signals as well as satellite signals by using the windows-based control software. In addition, the software provides GIS-based simulation scenarios editing tools. We verified the generator by using commercial receivers. As an application, we configured generators as indoor positioning systems and tested them in a building. To improve the accuracy of indoor systems is our further study.

In E-mail based accounting system, the remitter does not have need to find collector's account number. To transfer money to a collector's account, what remitter need is just a collector's E-mail address. But the current E-mail based accounting systems are built on SSL technology. Basically SSL provides some security services - confidentiality, user authentication and data integrity, but does not provide non-repudiation. So, in the current E-mail based accounting system, it is possible to deny transaction. And there is no receipt of transaction. In this paper, we design and implementation of a S/MIME applied Secure Payment Mechanism. In our system, every account information - account number, receiver name, amount of money, etc. - is included in a 'check' message. And this message is protected under the Secure Web-mail using S/MIME. In a view point of the convenience, users using our system do not have need to find collector's account number. And in a view point of the security, our system provides confidentiality, user authentication, data integrity and non-repudiation. Moreover our system provides a receipt.

In these days, interest of systems and services using TVWS(TV White Space) are increased, communication systems and services for TVWS have been actively studied. The unoccupied frequency in TVWS is different according to the geographical location and the time of day. RF systems having a frequency tunable bandpass filter operated in TVWS could be efficiently used. In this paper, a frequency tunable bandpass filter operated in 470 ~ 698MHz is designed and implemented. In consideration of simple control and physical size, the tunable bandpass filter is designed with 2-pole. The implemented tunable bandpass filter has the operating frequency band of 470 ~ 698MHz with control voltages of 1.58 ~ 3.93V, the insertion loss of maximum 4.78dB and the return loss of below 10dB. The implemented frequency tunable bandpass filter can be directly used in the RF receiver for TVWS and the design procedures could be used for developing a high power tunable bandpass filter as the basic research data.

In this paper, we present an implementation and it's real-sea test of an underwater acoustic data communication system, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater environments. For easy adaptation to complicated and time-varying environments of the ocean, all-digital transmitter and receiver systems were implemented. For frame synchronization the CAZAC sequence was used, and QPSK modulation/ demodulation method with carrier frequency of 25kHz and a bandwidth of 5kHz were applied to generate 10kbps transmission rate including overhead. To improve transmission quality, we used several techniques and algorithms such as adaptive beamforming, adaptive equalizer, and convolution coding/Viterbi decoding. for the verification of the system performance, measurement of BER has been done in a very shallow water with depth of 8m at JangMok, Geoje. During the experiment, image data were successfully transmitted up to about 7.4km.

World's leading countries are developing next generation digital broadcasting system specifications to support UHDTV (ultra-high definition television) contents and other various services. In order to maximize the transmission capacity by using the bandwidth efficiently, most broadcasting systems adopt MIMO-OFDM. In distributed-MIMO systems, multiple transmit antennas are spatially separated and therefore result in multiple timing offsets. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a technique using a null symbol to detect each individual signal from distributed transmit antennas. By inserting null symbols before preambles, the receiver can distinguish the signals between each transmit antennas and perform frame synchronization. When the reception time difference is shorter than 500 samples, the proposed method outperforms the conventional method.
