The cDNA encoding CMP-NeuAc:lactosylceramide ${\alpha}2$,3-sialyltransferase (GM3 synthase) was isolated from a human fetal brain cDNA library using sequence information obtained from amino acid sequences found in the conserved regions of the previously-cloned mouse GM3 synthase (mST3Gal V) and human sialyltransferases. The cDNA sequence included an open reading frame coding for 362 amino acids, and the primary structure of this enzyme predicted all the structural features characteristic of other sialyltransferases, including a type II membrane protein topology and both sialylmotifs. Comparative analysis of this cDNA with mST3Gal V showed 85% and 86% identity of the nucleotide and amino acid residues, respectively. The expression of this gene is highly restricted in both human fetal and adult tissues.

For a closed symplectic 4-manifold X, let $Diff_0$(X) be the group of diffeomorphisms of X smoothly isotopic to the identity, and let Symp(X) be the subgroup of $Diff_0$(X) consisting of symplectic automorphisms. In this paper we show that for any finitely given collection of positive integers {$n_1$, $n_2$, $\ldots$, $n_k$} and any non-negative integer m, there exists a closed symplectic (or K$\ddot{a}$hler) 4-manifold X with $b_2^+$ (X) > m such that the homologies $H_i$ of the quotient space $Diff_0$(X)/Symp(X) over the rational coefficients are non-trivial for all odd degrees i = $2n_1$ - 1, $\ldots$, $2n_k$ - 1. The basic idea of this paper is to use the local invariants for symplectic 4-manifolds with contact boundary, which are extended from the invariants of Kronheimer for closed symplectic 4-manifolds, as well as the symplectic compactifications of Stein surfaces of Lisca and Mati$\acute{c}$.

A UHF CMOS variable gain low-noise amplifier (LNA) is designed for mobile digital TV tuners. The proposed LNA adopts a feedback topology to cover a wide frequency range from 474 to 868 MHz, and it supports the notch filter function for the interoperability with the GSM terminal. In order to handle harmonic distortion by strong interferers, the gain of the proposed LNA is step-controlled while keeping almost the same input impedance. The proposed LNA is implemented in a $0.11{\mu}m$ CMOS process and consumes 6 mA at a 1.5 V supply voltage. In the measurement, it shows the power gain of greater than 16 dB, NF of less than 1.7 dB, and IIP3 of greater than -1.7 dBm for the UHF band.

In this paper, the development of a fiber optic network for an integrated digital protection relay system is described. The structure of the developed network is determined to loosen the optic requirements and to have good extensibility while providing sufficient functions for protection and control for substations. The network has a hierarchical structure with two levels. The upper level handles data for monitoring and control of the system with star topology. The lower level manages the real time data for bus protection with one-to-one connections. Communication flows of each level are described. The HDLC is employed as the network protocol.

다중출력 LDO 레귤레이터는 다양한 공급 전압이 필요한 임베디드 시스템에서 변환 효율을 개선할 수 있는 방안이 된다. 다중 출력을 위한 시분할 구조에서 LDO의 피드백 인자가 작아지면 정착시간이 길어져서 리플 전압이 커진다. 제안하는 토폴로지에서는 기준 전압을 가변하여 일정한 피드백 인자를 구현함으로써 정착시간과 리플 특성을 개선한다. $0.35{\mu}m$ 표준 CMOS 공정으로 설계한 4 채널 프로토타입의 시뮬레이션 결과 제안하는 구조는 피드백 인자가 0.4 이하인 기존 회로보다 정착시간과 리플 특성이 2배 이상 개선되는 것을 입증하였다.

본 논문에서는 캐스코드 결합 HBT의 이미터와 베이스단에 인덕터를 설치하여 저잡음과 고이득 특성을 동시에 나타내는 MMIC-LNA 증폭기를 설계하였다. 제작된 MMIC 증폭단은 3mA, 2.7V의 바이어스 조건에서 이득은 3.7GHz에서 약 19dB, 잡음지수는 2.7dB를 보였으며, 35dBc의 이미지시호 제거 특성을 보였다. 저 잡음과 고 이득 특성을 갖는 캐스코드 MMIC 증폭단을 이용하여 마이크로파 수신기의 전단부의 설계가 가능함을 보였으며 이미지 제거 필터의 성능을 만족시키기 위하여 능동필터와 함께 설계할 경우 RF 수신 전단부의 완전한 MMIC 설계가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

An Ultra-WideBand(UWB) Low-Noise Amplifier(LNA) is proposed and is implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The proposed UWB LNA provides excellent wideband characteristics by combining a High-Pass Filter (HPF) with a conventional resistive-loaded LNA topology. In the proposed UWB LNA, the bell-shaped gain curve of the overall amplifier is much less dependent on the frequency response of the HPF embedded in the input stage. In addition, the adoption of fewer on-chip inductors in the input matching network permits a lower noise figure and a smaller chip area. Measurement results show a power gain of + 10 dB and an input return loss of more than - 9 dB over 2.7 to 6.2 GHz, a noise figure of 3.1 dB at 3.6 GHz and 7.8 dB at 6.2 GHz, an input PldB of - 12 dBm, and an IIP3 of - 0.2 dBm, while dissipating only 4.6 mA from a 1.8-V supply.

Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are comprised of wireless mobile nodes characterized by a randomly changing topology, high mobility, availability of geographic position, and fewer power constraints. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising candidate for the physical layer of VANET because of the inherent characteristics of the spectral efficiency and robustness to channel impairments. The susceptibility of OFDM to Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) is a challenging issue. The high mobility of nodes in VANET causes higher Doppler shifts, which results in ICI in the OFDM system. In this paper, a frequency domain com-btype channel estimation was used to cancel out ICI. The channel frequency response at the pilot tones was estimated using a Least Square (LS) estimator. An efficient interpolation technique is required to estimate the channel at the data tones with low interpolation error. This paper proposes a robust interpolation technique to estimate the channel frequency response at the data subcarriers. The channel induced noise tended to degrade the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of the system. Parallel concatenated Convolutional codes were used for error correction. At the decoding end, different decoding algorithms were considered for the component decoders of the iterative Turbo decoder. A performance and complexity comparison among the various decoding algorithms was also carried out.
