Recently, with the growth of photovoltaic system, many researchers and companies have concerned about the multi-level inverter which has an efficiency of boosting voltage. This paper implements a multi-level switching function based on the FPGA. It is efficient to implement the switching function based on the FPGA as a program able logic device. In order to implementation the switching function, this paper synchronized with the microprocessor through the clock and synchronous signal from the microprocessor.

In this paper, we proposed the isolated multi-level inverter using 3-phase transformers. It makes possible to use a single DC power source due to employing low frequency transformers. In this inverter, the number of transformer could be reduced comparing with an exiting 3-phase multi-level inverter using single phase transformer. Also, using phase angle control method with switching frequency equal to output fundamental frequency, harmonics component of output voltage and switching losses can be reduced. Finally, we made a prototype inverter to clarify the proposed electric circuit and reasonableness of control signal.

In this paper, we studied about the level controller of optical signal with 40 channels by 4 VOA(Variable Optical Attenuator) with 12 channels. Total 8 microprocessors control 40 chamois for control of optical signal level so that a microprocessor controls 5 channels each. Moreover a microprocessor was added to communicate with outside and transfer instruction to each microprocessor. The output optical signal is measured and VOA is controlled as a result of it. The VOA outputs is inputted into PD(Photo Detector) at once. We could control multi-channel optical signals simply like this.

GNSS receiver which uses the weak satellite signal is very vulnerable to the intentional jamming or non-intentional electromagnetic interference. It is a very simple method among the use method of GNSS receiver to vary tracking loop bandwidth of satellite signal appropriately as the jamming signal level. In this paper, this anti-jamming performance is experimented and analyzed in the laboratory and the anechoic chamber by the GNSS simulator to generate the satellite signal and the jamming signal generator to generate the jamming signal.

BTC (Block Truncation Coding) image compression is simple to implement by hardware and has excellent edge retention capability of image, image compression techniques are widely used in LCD overdrive. In this paper, to maintain high visual quality and has high compression rate, Multi-Mode BTC (MM-BTC) algorithm is proposed. The MM-BTC has high compression rate using advanced Y-based BTC method and has high visual quality using improved 2-level and 4-level BTC method in this paper. As shown in simulation results, MM-BTC improves still image PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) up to 2.34 dB as compared with other algorithms. When the MM-BTC is applied to LCD overdrive, MM-BTC improves moving picture PSNR up to 2.33 dB as compared with other algorithms in literature.

A particular optical receiver has its own optical receiver modes (ORMs) determined by its optical and electrical filters. Superposing the ORM waveforms at the transmitter, we can generate a new type of optical signals, called ORM signals. After optical detection, they produce pre-specified voltage waveforms accurately, which is advantageous for digital signal processing. Assuming a Gaussian optical receiver, where the optical and electrical filters are Gaussian, we illustrate various phase-shift keying ORM signals using two ORMs by changing their relative phase. We also illustrate multi-level ORM signal patterns using two or more ORMs.

This paper is a result of the study that develops ghost eliminator which removes ghost among the ghosted analog or digital TV signal. We proposed innovative multilevel SIGN algorithm which is operated more stable and speedy than conventional LMS or SIGN algorithm. We compared its convergence speed with SIGN algorithm by experiment. We can eliminate ghost more speedy and stable than conventional method by using the multi-level SIGN algorithm which is presented in this paper. Multi-level SIGN algorithm can be used in any other applications instead of LMS or SIGN algorithm for stability and speed.

In this paper, we propose a new modulation scheme called multi-coded variable pulse position modulation (MC-VPPM) for visible light communication systems. Two groups of signals (Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) groups) are multi-coded by orthogonal codes for transmitting data simultaneously. Then, each multi-level value of the multi-coded signal is converted to pulse width and position which results in not only an improved data rate, but also a processing gain in reception. In addition, we introduce average duty ratio and cyclic shift concepts in PWM through which dimming control for light illumination can be supported without any degradation in communication performance. Through simulation, we confirm that the proposed MC-VPPM shows a comparable BER curve and much greater achievable data rate than the conventional VPPM scheme using a visible light optical channel environment.

In this paper, an interfacing method to control rehabilitation assitance system with bio-signal is proposed. Controlling with EMG signals method has certain advantage on signal-collecting, but has some drawbacks in the function resolution of EMG signals because data-processing process is not efficient. To improve function-resolution and to increase the efficiency of EMG signal interfacing with rehabilitation assistance system, Multi-layer Perception which is highly effective with static signal and hidden-Markov model for dynamic signal resolving are fused together. In proposed method. The direction and average speed of the rehabilitation assitance system are controlled by the trajectory control and estimation of the moving direction result from the fused model. From the experiment, proposed GMM and 2-level MLP hybrid-classifier yielded 8.6% perception-error rate, improving function resolution. New acceleration control method constructed with 3 nested linear filter produced continuous acceleration paths without the information of destination point. Thus, the mass output caused by non- continuous acceleration-deceleration was eliminated. In the simulation, the necessary calculation, in the case of multiplication, was reduced by 11.54%.

In DS/CDMA system the number of output signal levels increases as multi-channel signals are summed, hence the power amplifier with high linearity is required. PW/CDMA is a transmission technique that performs pulse width modulation on the multilevel signal synthesized from multiple channel data. In PW/CDMA system the signal level is maintained to be binary, hence the modulation and demodulation circuits become simple. In this paper we derive the probability of bit error of the PW/CDMA system in AWGN environment. The results are compared with DS/CDMA system and are verified through the computer simulations.
