"Side scan sonar" using acoustic signal has been developed to survey cable laying, sunken bodie\ulcorner bottom and so on. It use the acoustic signals, which are emitted from two transducer arrays, to get gemetri\ulcorner target area. This system consists of transceiver board, towed body, and deck unit. The transceiver board, w\ulcorner watertight canister of the towed body, controls the transmitting and receiving of 400kHz acoustic signals from \ulcorner After receiving the scattered signals, it processes the filtering, AGF(Automatic Gain Control), TVG(Time Heterodyne. The deck unit is composed of the signal processing part, A/D converter, power supplier, and real\ulcorner And the towed body has been designed to satisfy the optimal hydrodynamic behavior during towing. The de\ulcorner theory of transceiving part and some results from field-experiments will be introduced here.

This paper describes the design of enhanced TSSI RF Power Detector which has wide dynamic range using switch and Log amp. This Power Detector consists of low and high gain loops, and they adaptively switched by output DC voltage which is proportioned to input power level. Because Power Detector needs to separate the channel, so architecture is heterodyne system having 70MHz intermediate frequency. This proposed RF Power Detector is settle to the satisfaction of Closed loop power control system for W-CDMA optic repeater, and the obtained dynamic range cover the higher than 50dB.

This paper presents a phase-only modulation scheme for a three-dimensional (3-D) image matching system to improve optical efficiency of the system. The 3-D image matching system is based on the two mask heterodyne scanning. A hologram of the 3-D reference object is first created and then the phase of the hologram is extracted. The phase of the hologram is represented as one mask with the other mask being a plane wave. The superposition of each beam modulated by the two masks generated a scanning beam pattern. This beam pattern scans the 3-D target object to be recognized. The output of the scanning system gives out the correlation of the phase-only hologram of the reference object and the complex hologram of the target object. Since a hologram contains 3-D information of an object as a form of fringe pattern, the correlation of holograms matches whole 3-D aspect of the objects. Computer simulations are performed with additive gaussian noise and without noise for the complex hologram modulation scheme and the phase-only hologram modulation scheme. The computer simulation results show that the phase-only hologram modulation scheme improves the optical efficiency. Thus the system with the phase-only hologram modulation scheme is more robust than the system with the complex hologram modulation scheme.

The isolation between transmitter and receiver has been a critical problem in a pulse-modulated RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) system where transmitter and receiver use the identical frequency. A method using a switch, a mixer, a BPF (band-pass filter), and an additional oscillator in the transmitter is proposed to improve the isolation between transmitter and receiver in an RFID system. The Proposed system up-converts the outgoing wave from a frequency different from the received signal and improves the isolation. The proposed method provided additional 20 dB improvement on the isolation.

In this paper, we propose an artificial intelligence method to compensate the nonlinearity error which occurs in the heterodyne laser interferometer. Some superior properties such as long measurement range, ultra-precise resolution and various system set-up lead the laser interferometer to be a practical displacement measurement apparatus in various industry and research area. In ultra-precise measurement such as nanometer or subnanometer scale, however, the accuracy is limited by the nonlinearity error caused by the optical parts. The feedforward neural network trained by back-propagation with a capacitive sensor as a reference signal minimizes the nonlinearity error and we demonstrate the effectiveness of our proppsed algorithm through some experimental results.

As Korean engineering contribution to ALMA enhancement, development of focal plane arrays(FPAs) for the total power array in ALMA compact array has been projected mainly to increase mapping speed in interferometric multi-pointing observation(mosaicking). To tackle engineering issues expected in order to be compatible with the existing ALMA receivers, we plan to develop a prototype 300-500 GHz heterodyne FPA system including a software spectrometer using GPU clusters for ASTE(Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment) telescope by 2017.

Because of its long measurement range and ultra-precise resolution. the heterodyne laser interferometer systems are very common in various industry area such as semiconductor manufacturing. However the periodical nonlinearity property caused from frequency mixing is an obstacle to improve the high measurement accuracy in nanometer scale. In this paper to minimize the effect of nonlinearity, we propose an adaptive nonlinearity compensation algorithm. We first compute compensation parameters using least square (LS) with the capacitance displacement sensor as a reference input. We then update the parameters with recursive LS (RLS) while the values are optimized to modify the elliptical phase into circular one. Through comparison with some experimental results of laser system, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.

Optical 60 ㎓ millimeter-wave (MMW) signal generation is demonstrated using the sideband injection-locking method in the master/slave configuration, where two slave lasers are locked to two among several side-bands produced by the direct rf-modulation of a master laser. These two locked slave laser outputs beat against each other in the photo-detector and produce stable and very pure 60 ㎓ signals.

In this paper, we present a photonic approach for generating highly stable coherent sub-terahertz (THz) signals for wireless communications. As proof-of-concept we transmit data at 100 GHz carrier frequency using on-off keying modulation and heterodyne detection. The sub-THz carrier signals are generated by photo-mixing two optical carrier signals at different frequencies, extracted from an optical frequency comb. We introduce a novel system to stabilize the phase of the optical carrier signals. Error-free transmission is successfully achieved up to a bit rate of 8.5 Gbit/s at 100 GHz.

As speed and capacity of optical communication system increase dramatically, polarization-mode-dispersion compensation(PMDC) becomes a hot issue in these days. In this paper, we introduce a new state-of-polarization (SOP) tracking algorithm that can be used in a PMDC system. The new SOP tracking algorithm is also based on optical heterodyne coherent detection technique like the previous algorithm that we have reported before. However, unlike the previous algorithm, the new algorithm requires only three times of measurement in any circumstances to find the exact SOP information so that it can effectively be applied to PMDC system where very fast and stable operation is indispensible.
