In this paper, short-range underwater wireless communication technique using visible LEDs is proposed. As an alternative to conventional acoustic system, visible LED communications show high quality and high speed data transmission characteristics. We design a frequency modulation-based optical wireless audio transmission system. The CD4046B phase-locked loop device is applied to implement the frequency modulation and demodulation. With a transmission modulation of 100 kHz, audio signal has successfully received at a transmission distance of 30 cm.

This paper presents an indoor prototype for wireless digital signal transmission using Visible Light Communications (VLC) in which high power Light Emitting Diode (LED) is used. Using low cost and off-the-shelf components, the transmitter module is constructed using an AVR Atmega128 microcontroller and commercial white beam LEDs. Modulating the light intensity of the LED enables digital signals to be transmitted across the optical link. The receiver module employs a high speed PIN photodetector for optical signal detection and a recovery circuit for optical-electro signal conversion. By sending digitalized data via VLC technology, many applications can be realized in the areas of consumer advertising, traffic safety information and disaster control.

This paper addresses the analysis and the design optimization of differential interconnects for high-speed Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) applications. Thanks to the differential transmission and the low voltage swing, LVDS offers high data rates and improved noise immunity with significantly reduced power consumption in data communications, high-resolution display, and flat panel display. We present an improved model and new equations to reduce impedance mismatch and signal degradation in cascaded interconnects using optimization of interconnect design parameters such as trace width, trace height and trace space in differential printed circuit board (FPCB) transmission lines. We have carried out frequency-domain full-wave electromagnetic simulations, and time-domain transient simulations to evaluate the high-frequency characteristics of the differential FPCB interconnects. We believe that the proposed approach is very helpful to optimize high-speed differential FPCB interconnects for LVDS applications.

In this paper, a dynamic route control scheme to increase speed of data communication over public network is presented. And a new structure of gateway which is suitable for the public network environments is proposed and analyzed. For dynamic allocation of transmission routing resources of the gateway and improvement of call processing ratio of the system, virtual queue is used. As results, route utilization ratio of the proposed scheme can be improved up to 60% as compared to the conventional fixed route control scheme. For the case of limited number of routes, it provides high speed data communication while maintaining delay time as low as possible. In addition, as the allocation period at call access node can be varied with the traffic in the proposed scheme, various traffics can be applied easily. Thus, it can be expected that the presented dynamic route control gateway may be suitable for application in high speed data communication over public network.

In this paper, a hardware design method is proposed for high speed high precision neutron radiation measurements. Our system is fabricated to use a high performance A/D Converter for digital data conversion of high precision and high speed analog signals. Using a neutron sensor, incident neutron radiation particles are detected; a precision microcurrent measurement module is also included: this module allows for more precise and rapid neutron radiation measurement design. The high speed high precision neutron measurement hardware system is composed of the neutron sensor, variable high voltage generator, microcurrent precision measurement component, embedded system, and display screen. The neutron sensor detects neutron radiation using high density polyethylene. The variable high voltage generator functions as a 0 ~ 2KV variable high voltage generator that is robust against heat and noise; this generator allows the neutron sensor to perform normally. The microcurrent precision measurement component employs a high performance A/D Converter to precisely and swiftly measure the high precision high speed microcurrent signal from the neutron sensor and to convert this analog signal into a digital one. The embedded system component performs multiple functions including neutron radiation measurement for high speed high precision neutron measurements, variable high voltage generator control, wired and wireless communications control, and data recording. Experiments using the proposed high speed high precision neutron measurement hardware shows that the hardware exhibits superior performance compared to that of conventional equipment with regard to measurement uncertainty, neutron measurement rate, accuracy, and neutron measurement range.

MC-CDMA(Multicarrier code division multiple access), which is based on a combination of OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) and CDMA(code division multiple access), has gained a lot of interests in wireless multimedia communications, as high speed data transmission is required for mobile services. MC-CDMA has many advantages for broadband high speed data transmission in multipath environment because it can offer both advantages of the CDMA and the OFDM. However, A high PAPR(peak to average power ratio) problem, which is a major drawback of OFDM, is also shown in the MC-CDMA. In this paper, we propose a new phase factor optimization scheme to reduce complexity in PTS(partial transmit sequence) to reduce PAPR. We also analyze the performance of the MC-CDMA with various PTS schemes to investigate the relations between PAPR characteristics and effect of nonlinear distortion of a high power amplifier. Our simulation results reveal that the proposed PTS scheme reduces PAPR about 0.2∼0.5 dB even with 25% reduced- complexity compared to the conventional scheme.

The current multihome-aware protocols (like stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) or parallel TCP for concurrent multipath data transfer (CMT) are not designed for high-capacity and large-latency networks; they often have performance problems transferring large data files over shared long-distance wide area networks. It has been shown that SCTP-CMT is more sensitive to receive buffer (rbuf) constraints, and this rbuf-blocking problem causes considerable throughput loss when multiple paths are used simultaneously. In this research paper, we demonstrate the weakness of SCTP-CMT rbuf constraints, and we then identify that rbuf-blocking problem in SCTP multihoming is mostly due to its loss-based nature for detecting network congestion. We present a simulation-based performance comparison of FAST TCP versus SCTP in high-speed networks for solving a number of throughput issues. This work proposes an end-to-end transport layer protocol (i.e., FAST TCP multihoming as a reliable, delaybased, multihome-aware, and selective ACK-based transport protocol), which can transfer data between a multihomed source and destination hosts through multiple paths simultaneously. Through extensive ns-2 simulations, we show that FAST TCP multihoming achieves the desired goals under a variety of network conditions. The experimental results and survey presented in this research also provide an insight on design decisions for the future high-speed multihomed transport layer protocols.

In this paper, We have designed and analyzed a characteristics of backplane channel having 40 inch strip line length of four lanes and Flame Retardant four (PR-4) material, and have designed 40 Gb/s Receive and adaptive equalizer and its high-speed equalization algorithm using the backplane channel characteristics. For 40 Gb/s high-speed data communications pass through the backplane, a 10Gb/s 4 channel receive & equalizer with DFE except for FFE was proposed. This receive and equalizer meets the requirements of the IEEE Std P802.3ba standard-based receive equalizer to implement equalizers on the receive end of a 46 inch length's backplane channel.

The main contribution of this paper can be summarized in two items as follws. Firstly, a modelling of mobile communication channel with Rayleigh fading characteristics is presented. Actual signal environments can be approximated as being real measurements by a proper mathematical representation of fluctuation of channel parameters due to Doppler effect, that is determined by the relative speed between transmitter and receiver, and noises, that vary at each sampling time. Secondly, an alternative procedure of synthesizing an adaptive equalizers is presented for recovering original signals that have been corrupted through the modelled channel. In order to compute the optimal tap coefficients for a high speed data(512 k symbol/sec) on a real-time basis, the CGM that guarantees fast and stable convergency is adopted during the training period of each frame. The coefficients obtained by the CGM are used as initial values for the LMS algorithm to trace the optimal coefficients during the data period that vary at each sampling time due to the mobility and noise at the receiver. Using the modelling presented in this paper, distributions of received signal power in various signal environments are demonstrated. The performance of the eqalizer proposed in this paper is shown as a function of BER under the various signal circumstances of mobile communications.
