In this paper, we propose an adaptive turbo decoding algorithm for high order modulation scheme combined with originally design for a standard rate-1/2 turbo decoder for B/QPSK modulation. A transformation applied to the incoming I-channel and Q-channel symbols allows the use of an off-the-shelf B/QPSK turbo decoder without any modifications. Adaptive turbo decoder process the received symbols recursively to improve the performance. As the number of iterations increase, the execution time and power consumption also increase as well. The source of the latency and power consumption reduction is from the combination of the radix-4, dual-path processing, parallel decoding, and early-stop algorithms. We implemented the proposed scheme on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and compared its decoding speed with that of a conventional decoder. From the result of implementation, we confirm that the decoding speed of proposed adaptive decoding is faster than conventional scheme by 6.4 times.

In this paper, dual-gate mixer has been designed and optimized to have variable conversion gain for WiBro and WLAN applications and to save power. With the LO power of 0dBm and RF power of -50dBm, the mixer shows 15dB conversion gain. When RF power increases from -50dBm to -20dBm, the conversion gain decreases to -2dB with bias change. The variable conversion gain can reduce the high dynamic range requirement of AGC burden at IF stage. Also, it can save the dc power dissipation of mixer up to 90%.

In this paper, a new optical parallel binary arithmetic processor (OPBAP) capable of computing arbitrary n-bit look-ahead carry full-addition is proposed and implemented. The conventional Boolean algebra is considered to implement OPBAP by using two schemes of optical logic processor. One is space-variant optical logic gate processor (SVOLGP), the other is shadow-casting optical logic array processor (SCOLAP). SVOLGP can process logical AND and OR operations different in space simultaneously by using free-space interconnection logic filters, while SCOLAP can perform any possible 16 Boolean logic function by using spatial instruction-control filter. A dual-rail encoding method is adopted because the complement of an input is needed in arithmetic process. Experiment on OPBAP for an 8-bit look-ahead carry full addition is performed. The experimental results have shown that the proposed OPBAP has a capability of optical look-ahead carry full-addition with high computing speed regardless of the data length.

This project presents a concept of mobile robots using prototypes, computing proposal oriented to embedded systems implementation. We implement our system using GPS module, Ultrasonic sensor(range sensors), H-bridge dual stepper control, DTMF(Dual-tone Multi-Frequency ) and LCD module. In this paper we construct a mechanical simple mobile robot model, which can measure the distance from obstacle with the aid of sensor and should able to control the speed of motor accordingly. Modules were interfaced with FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) controller for hardware implementation.

This paper shows some variable bias techniques which can improve the power added efficiency(PAE) for the designed power amplifier. Some simulations have been done to get the effect of the bias change, and variable bias is adopted to get the higher efficiency for dual mode amplifier which generates two different output power levels. With drain bias change and a fixed gate bias, the amplifier shows PAE improvement compared to the fixed bias amplifier. In addition, this paper analyzed nonlinear distortion of the power amplifier and has used the digital predistortion which can result in 10dB ACPR improvement for the dual band amplifier.

This paper describes a CMOS image sensor (CIS) with dual correlated double sampling (CDS) and column-parallel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and its measurement method using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) integrated module. The CIS is composed of a $320{\times}240$ pixel array with $3.2{\mu}m{\times}3.2{\mu}m$ pixels and column-parallel 10-bit single-slope ADCs. It is fabricated in a $0.11-{\mu}m$ CIS process, and consumes 49.2 mW from 1.5 V and 3.3 V power supplies while operating at 6.25 MHz. The measured dynamic range is 53.72 dB, and the total and column fixed pattern noise in a dark condition are 0.10% and 0.029%. The maximum integral nonlinearity and the differential nonlinearity of the ADC are +1.15 / -1.74 LSB and +0.63 / -0.56 LSB, respectively.

This paper proposes a high-efficiency, dual-mode PWM / linear buck converter with a wide-input range. The proposed converter was designed with a mode selector that can change the operation between PWM / linear mode by sensing a load current. The proposed converter operates in a linear mode during a light load and in PWM mode during a heavy load condition in order to ensure high efficiency. In addition, the mode selector uses a bit counter and a transmission gate designed to protect from a malfunction due to noise or a time-delay. Also, in conditions between $-40^{\circ}C$ and $140^{\circ}C$, the converter has variations in temperature of $0.5mV/^{\circ}C$ in the PWM mode and of $0.24mV/^{\circ}C$ in the linear mode. Also, to prevent malfunction and breakdown of the IC due to static electricity, the reliability of IC was improved by embedding a self-produced 8 kV-class(Chip level) ESD protection circuit of a P-substrate Triggered SCR type with high robustness characteristics.

In this paper, we propose a novel optical implementation of a 3DES algorithm based on dual XOR logic operations for a cryptographic system. In the schematic architecture, the optical 3DES system consists of dual XOR logic operations, where XOR logic operation is implemented by using a free-space interconnected optical logic gate method. The main point in the proposed 3DES method is to make a higher secure cryptosystem, which is acquired by encrypting an individual private key separately, and this encrypted private key is used to decrypt the plain text from the cipher text. Schematically, the proposed optical configuration of this cryptosystem can be used for the decryption process as well. The major advantage of this optical method is that vast 2-D data can be processed in parallel very quickly regardless of data size. The proposed scheme can be applied to watermark authentication and can also be applied to the OTP encryption if every different private key is created and used for encryption only once. When a security key has data of $512{\times}256$ pixels in size, our proposed method performs 2,048 DES blocks or 1,024 3DES blocks cipher in this paper. Besides, because the key length is equal to $512{\times}256$ bits, $2^{512{\times}256}$ attempts are required to find the correct key. Numerical simulations show the results to be carried out encryption and decryption successfully with the proposed 3DES algorithm.

A new liquid crystal display (LCD) Data identified Time Extension (DiTEX) driving scheme with a high charged voltage is proposed. The different charged voltage owing to the differential charging time and various initial pixel-potential can be eliminated or diminished under this method. It is compatible with a 2-row inversion and can be realized into the commercial dual-sided gate circuits.
