  • 비대칭 구조의 커플러에 대한 이론적 고찰과 함께 EDFA 이득평탄용 필터로서의 응용과 그에 대한 설계를 하였다. 이득평탄필터를 구현하기 위한 비대칭 커플러의 광섬유 파라미터를 제시하였고 커플러의 광 결합 길이와 코어간의 거리에 따른 이득평탄필터의 투과 스펙트럼의 특성을 시뮬레이션을 통해 알아보았다. 그리고 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 하여 약 30nm의 대역폭에 걸쳐서 EDFA의 이득 스펙트럼을 $\pm$0.75 ㏈이하로 평탄화할 수 있는 이득평탄필터를 설계하였다.

  • Binaural hearing aids with a voice transmitter have been widely used to enhance sound quality in noisy environment. However, this system has a limitation on sound-source localization. In this study, we investigated automatic directional-gain control method using geomagnetic sensors to provide directional information to binaural hearing aid user. The loudness gains of two hearing aids were differently controlled based on the directional information between a speaker position and a viewing direction of hearing aids user. This relative directional information was measured by two geomagnetic sensors on hearing aids user and a speaker. The results showed that the loudness gains were accurately controlled and could provide directional information based on the cue of interaural level differences.

  • 양방향 ADM 노드에서 자동이득제어를 위해 발진고리형 고정이득 EDFA를 적용할 경우 잡음지수 특성을 검토하고자 한다. 이를 위해 소신호 입력인 경우에 한해서 발진보상광의 발진방향 및 발진파장에 따른 잡음지수 특성을 평균밀도반전 알고리즘에 의해 계산하였고 실험적으로 확인하였다. 그 결과 단파장의 발진보상광이 광섬유고리에서 후방 발진을 일으킬 경우가 양방향의 소신호 잡음지수 측면에서는 가장 양호한 조건으로 판명되었다.

  • This paper presents a novel design of a differential patch antenna for 60-GHz millimeter-wave applications. The design process of the back-to-back (BTB) patch antenna is based on the conventional single-patch antenna. The initial design of the BTB patch antenna (Type-I) has a patch size of 0.66 × 0.98 mm2 and a substrate size of 0.99 × 1.48 mm2. It has a gain of 1.83 dBi and an efficiency of 94.4% with an omni-directional radiation pattern. A 0.4 mm-thick high-resistivity silicon (HRS) is employed for the substrate of the BTB patch antenna. The proposed antenna is further analyzed to investigate the effect of substrate size and resistivity. As the substrate resistivity decreases, the gain and efficiency degrade due to the substrate loss. As the substrate (HRS) size decreases approaching the patch size, the resonant frequency increases with a higher gain and efficiency. The BTB patch antenna has optimal performances when the substrate size matches the patch size on the HRS substrate (Type-II). The antenna is redesigned to have a patch size of 0.81 × 1.18 mm2 on the HRS substrate in the same size. It has an efficiency of 94.9% and a gain of 1.97 dBi at the resonant frequency of 60 GHz with an omni-directional radiation pattern. Compared to the initial design of the BTB patch antenna (Type-I), the optimal BTB patch antenna (Type-II) has a slightly higher efficiency and gain with a considerable reduction in antenna area by 34.8%.

  • In this paper, a multi-band ceramic chip antenna for WLAN(Wireless LAN) applications is designed. The design target is to obtain 0 dBi of coverage gain with omni directional radiation pattern. The antenna is fabricated using Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic(LTCC) technology. The size of the chip antenna is $2.2{\times}9.65{\times}1.02$mm. The measured antenna gain is 1 dBi at 2.44 GHz and 0.5 dBi at 5.5 GHz. The omni directional radiation pattern for the two operating bands is obtained. The measured bandwidth(S11=-10 dB) are 90 MHz at 2.44 GHz and 1280 MHz at 5.5 GHz respectively

  • In this paper, we implement a non-time-varying transfer function of the duty ratio to improve the control characteristics in a control system that Input voltage and the output voltage is varied, DC / DC converters for bi-directional charging. When control is performed with using controller gain of conventional design, characteristics of the control is varied to fluctuations of the input voltage. The proposed method is the equivalently removing method for duty ratio in entire control block, by voltage controller gain is changed for inverse of the duty ratio. The proposed non-time-varying duty ratio transfer function is applied to DC / DC converter for bi-directional charging. In this paper, feasibility and superiority is verified through PSIM simulations and experiments.

  • This paper proposes a new design of directional couplers with high directivity for personal communication services (PCS) and International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000). The directional coupler is used to check and verify the power, frequency, and antenna reflection of a signal at transmission stations for mobile communications. The performance requirements of directional couplers are a strong coupling to reduce the effect on the transmitted power and high directivity to suppress the interference of the reflected signals and reduce the errors in communication. So far, various architectures have been proposed to gain high directivity, and there have been many studies used to obtain a strong coupling. However, conventional architectures for high directivity and strong coupling have a directivity of only about 20 dB, and there have been difficulties to achieve the higher directivity of 30 dB suitable for PCS and IMT-2000. This paper proposes a new architecture of directional couplers based on a grounding composed of strip lines, and compares the test results of this directional coupler with conventional ones. The results show that the proposed directional coupler has a directivity of more than 30 dB and is adequate for PCS and IMT-2000.

  • 최근 무선 Ad Hoc 환경에서 지향성 안테나를 사용하여 통신을 하는 기술은 초고속 통신을 위하여 각광받고 있는 기술이다. 하지만 지향성 안테나를 사용할 경우에는 난청 현상이 발생하는 문제점이 대두된다. 난청 현상은 한 노드가 전송을 시작하기 위해서 DRTS(Directional Request-to-Send) 프레임을 수신 노드에게 보낼 때, 수신 노드가 다른 노드와의 통신 때문에 DRTS 프레임을 듣지 못하는 현상이다. 이러한 난청 문제를 해결하기 위해서 현재까지 다양한 지향성 안테나를 위한 MAC 프로토콜 (DMAC : Directional MAC)이 제안되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 DMAC 프로토콜들을 1) 주변노드에 자신의 통신정보를 알려주는 방법, 2) 미래 통신노드를 지정하는 방법, 3) 실제 네트워크 실패를 알아내는 방법으로 크게 3가지로 나누어 보았다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기법에 대해서 난청문제를 얼마나 효과적으로 해결하는지 다양한 시나리오들을 통하여 분석하고 성능 평가를 통하여 각 기법의 특정 및 네트워크 처리량을 측정해 본다.

  • Delivery of high quality video over a wide area network with large number of users poses great challenges for the video communication system. To ensure video quality, multiple descriptions have recently attracted various attention as a way of encoding and visual information delivery over wireless network. We propose a new efficient multiple description coding (MDC) technique. Quincunx lattice sub-sampling is used for generating multiple descriptions of an image. In this paper, we propose the application of a directional discrete cosine transform (DCT) to a sub-sampled quincunx lattice to create an MDC representation. On the decoder side, the image is decoded from the received side information. If all the descriptions arrive successfully, the image is reconstructed by combining the descriptions. However, if only one side description is received, decoding is executed using an interpolation process. The experimental results show that such the directional DCT can achieve a better coding gain as well as energy packing efficiency than the conventional DCT with re-alignment.
