Recently, Korean software industry has enjoyed fast growth, thus phenomenon drew attention to the need for more precise and standardized cost estimation system for software development. However, many obstacles exist in achieving a more precise and universally applicable cost measurement. These obstacles include : (1) the intangible nature of intellectual efforts, (2) lack of cost standards, (3) lack of quantitative yardstick to determine the potential complication, (4) lack of both cost monitoring during development and coordinating between acquisition process and cost estimation. The purpose of this study is to facilitate software development cost estimation considering acquisition process that will meet korean user's needs, and to create better models that will be cost for software development particularly for Korean environment.

A fast pseudo-noise (PN) sequence acquisition algorithm for the direct-sequence (DS) spread spectrum system is proposed. The basic concept of the algorithm has been adopted from that of the classical sliding correlator. Mathematical modeling, analysis and computer simulation of the proposed system have been done. The results of analysis and computer simulation show that the acquisition system yields a significant performance improvement over the sliding correlator. Its acquisition time takes only 45 ms when signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) is -18dB. The algorithm developed has been implemented in hardware and its experimental result is also given.

In this paper, a signal processing algorithm for software GPS receiver is proposed. The signal processor takes snapshot of the sampled If signal from the RF section of the GPS receiver. All the processing for code and carrier tracking and correlation are implemented using the digital signal processing techniques. In order to achieve fast code acquisition, correlation of the incoming GPS signal is performed using the FFT method, After code acquisition, to reduce the Doppler shift effect and increase the accuracy, the interpolation or the tracking are performed. The performance of the proposed processing algorithm is first evaluated using matlab/simulink. A signal acquisition board for sampling and logging GPS IF signal form the Mitel GPS RF chip set is constructed. In order to analyze the performance of the designed algorithm the experiments are performed and the results are analyzed.

Acquisition is to detect the presence of the GPS signal. Once the signal is detected, the estimated frequency and code phase are passed to a tracking loop to demodulate the navigation data. In order to detect the weak signal, multiple length of data integration is always needed. In this paper, we present five different acquisition approaches based on circular correlation and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), using coherent as well as non-coherent integration techniques for the multiple length of collected GPS satellite signal. Moreover a general approach of determining the acquisition threshold is introduced based on noise distribution which has been proved effective, and independent of the hardware. In the end of this paper, the processing speed and acquisition gain of each method are illustrated, compared, and analyzed. The results show that coherent approach is much more time consuming compared to noncoherent approaches, and in the case of multiple length of data integration from 2ms to 8ms, the processing times consumed by the fastest non-coherent acquisition method are only 25.87% to 1.52% in a single search, and 34.76% to 1.06% in a global search of those in the coherent acquisition. However, coherent acquisition also demonstrates its better performance in the acquisition gain, and in the case of 8ms of data integration it is 4.23 to 4.41 dB higher than that in the non-coherent approaches. Finally, an applicable scheme of combining coherent and non-coherent acquisition approaches in the development of a real-time Software GPS receiver in the University of Tokyo is provided.

A novel high channel efficiency transceiver based on a fast acquisition frequency synthesizer has been designed. The direct digital synthesis (DDS) technique is applied and a simple memory look-up table is incorporated to expedite channel acquisition. The technique simplifies the frequency control process in the transceiver and thus reduces the channel switching time. As a result, the channel efficiency is improved. The designed transceiver is ideal for frequency hopping mobile communication applications.

In this paper, velocity measurement of fast moving object for traffic information acquisition using line sampling of image is proposed. Velocity measurement for traffic information acquisition of moving object is that the first sample line and second sample line on the road is set, then car is detected by using difference image method between time-variance hue data of image when car is passing two sample lines and hue data of the reference image, and velocity of the car is measured by using frame number of video which is occupied by two sample lines. Identification of the car is performed by hue of the detected car between the first sample line and second sample line, respectively To examine the propriety of the proposed algorithm, identification and velocity measurement for driving car is evaluated. The evaluated results is that it is identified by hue data of car passing two sample lines, and the velocity measurement for driving car is less than 3% comparing with X-band speed gun.

A heart diagnosis system adopts Superconducting Quantum Interface Device(SQUID) sensors for precision MCG signal acquisitions. Such system is composed of hundreds of sensors, requiring fast signal sampling and precise analog-digital conversions(ADC). Our development of hardware board, processing 64-channel 12-bit 1ks/s, is built by using 8-channel ADC chips, 8-bit microprocessors, SPI interfaces, and parallel data transfers between microprocessors to meet the 1ks/s, i.e. 1 ms speed. The test result shows that the signal acquisition is done in 168 usuc which is much shorter than the required 1 ms period. This hardware will be extended to 256 channel data acquisition to be used for the diagnosis system.

A simple and inexpensive digital data acquisition system for general use in chemical laboratory was constructed. Since the system has its own 12-bit 4K memory, it can be used by itself to capture the fast signals. The system can also be used with Apple Ⅱ+ microcomputer for acquisition and processing of data.

In this paper, we introduce a charge pump PLL architecture which employs precharge phase frequency detector(PFD) and sequential PFD to achieve high frequency operation and fast acquisition. Operation frequency is increased by using precharge PFD when the phase difference is within -${\pi}\;{\sim}\;{\pi}$ and acquisition time is shortened by using sequential PFD and increased charge pump current when the phase difference is larger than |${\pi}$|. SO error detection range of proposed PLL structure is not limited to -${\pi}\;{\sim}\;{\pi}$. By virtue of this multi-phase frequency detector structure, the maximum operating frequency of 423MHz at 2.5V and faster acquisition were achieved by simulation.
