The technique of dual-input describing function's synthesis is introduced and the construction of a nonlinear compensator, based on this technique, is proposed. A nonlinear compensator, describing a complex DIDF depending upon amplitude of the second sinusoidal input signal only, is also proposed, where the second sinusoidal input signal is supplied to the nonlinear compensator by external generator. This compensator, connected in a closed loop of the PI speed control of DC motor, can improve the speed response in view instability limit cycle, low speed response and disturbance of the dynamic shift of the Nyquist's critical point -1 + j O. It is verified theoretically that the improvement of speed response of DC motor using the proposed compensator is achieved by means of the dynamic shift of the Nyquist's critical point on the complex plane, and the speed characterstics of DC motor is to be tested through experiment for its performance.

Quantitative accuracy assessment of a SPOT DEM (Digital Elevation Model) generated by a fully automatic software is performed along the 90km long coast around Donghae city. The theoretical requirement on the layout of the CPS (Global Positioning System) check points is derived: the Nyquist sampling. Since in practice the Nyquist frequency of a terrain is difficult to determine, the relaxed requirements are introduced and 31 check points are collected accordingly. Accuracy of the SPOT DEM is calculated to be 8.9, 11.5 and 12.0m r.m.s. in latitudinal, longitudinal and elevation directions. The bias is distinguishable from zero only for elevation and is 2.2m. The simple comparison with the world's leading commercial softwares reveals the similar accuracy level.

A lumped kinetic modeling platform is developed to investigate the coupled nuclear/thermo-fluid features of the closed natural circulation loop in a low power lead cooled fast reactor. This coolant material serves a reliable choice with noticeable thermo-physical safety characteristics in terms of natural convection. Boussienesq approximation is resorted to appropriately reduce the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) for the fluid flow into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). As a main contributing step, the coolant circulation speed is accordingly correlated to the loop operational power and temperature levels. Further temporal analysis and control synthesis activities may thus be carried out within a more consistent state space framework. Nyquist stability criterion is thereafter employed to carry out a sensitivity analysis for the system stability at various power and heat sink temperature levels and results confirm a widely stable natural circulation loop.

A newfangled family of Nyquist-I pulses is proposed and named improved dual sinc pulse (IDSP). The IDSP is designed to improve performance in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based systems. The IDSP is a generalization of the dual sinc pulse (DSPP). This is because the DSP was formulated for α = 1 whereas the IDSPP is valid for 0 ≤ α ≤ 1. The behavior of the IDSP is promising in terms of its frequency and time domain responses. Theoretical and numerical outcomes indicate that the IDSP outperformed other existing pulses applied in OFDM-based systems for various key evaluation metrics.

FTN method which transmits signals faster the Nyquist rate is representative method for improving throughput efficiency sacrificed performance due to inter-symbol interference. To compensate performance loss, in this paper, we propose a multiband FTN method which split the coded bits into several bands and transmits signals applying FTN method. As coded bits are being assigned different bands, number of samples per bit of each band is increased, it induced performance improvement by noise averaging effect. In the simulations, compared the performance of single band FTN method and multiband FTN method when the interference rate is 25%. The results of simulation show the performance of proposed method is better than that of single band FTN one by 0.3dB~0.5dB.

In this paper, we propose an efficient joint demodulation and decoding scheme for FTN (Faster than Nyquist) systems. Several previous works have demonstrated that ISI (Inter Symbol Interference) cancellation schemes based on BCJR (Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv) algorithm are suitable for FTN systems. Unfortunately, required complexity of the previous ISI cancellation schemes is very high, especially when a multi-level modulation scheme is employed. In this paper, we propose a joint demodulation and decoding scheme for FTN systems with an iteratively decodable channel coding scheme and a multi-level modulation. Compared with the previously proposed schemes, the proposed scheme not only offers reliable performance but also requires relatively low complexity. Also, the proposed scheme can be easily applied to the FTN system with a multi-level modulation with a minor modification.

When we apply the spectrally efficient quadrature amplitude modulation(QAM) to mobile communications, it is necessary to estimate and compensate the channel charac- teristics. In this paper, a new type fading estimation method for PSAM using sinc function is presented. Gaussian interpolation method has a drawback that the performance degrades rapidly if pilot symbol period increases even though pilot sysbol period is less than Nyquist sampling rate. The Wiener filter method does not degrade until pilot symbol period is equal to the Nyquist sampling rate. It is difficult for Wiener filter method to be applied to real system because autocorrelation function of channel gain, Doppler frequency and SNR(signal to noise ratio) must be known to optimize the filter coefficients. But proposed method has a similar performance to the Wiener filter method, and does not need to know the autocorrelation function of channel gain, the doppler frequency and SNR. Therefore the proposed method cna be applied to real system easily.

In this paper, we propose an inter-symbol interference (ISI) estimation scheme based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) algorithm for faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) systems. Unfortunately, the ISI estimator based on the MAP algorithm requires relatively high computational complexity. To reduce the complexity of the MAP based ISI estimator, we propose a hybrid ISI estimation scheme based on the MAP and successive interference cancellation (SIC) algorithms. The proposed scheme not only offers good ISI estimation performances but also requires reasonably low complexity.

In this paper, we propose a novel spectral-chopping model of Class-II$(1+D)^2$ -PRS system which reveals improved spectral efficiency. We build up the model having spectrum chopped by the amount of Nyquist over-rate, and then compare its characteristics with the conventional model in both the time-domain and the frequency-domain. When the transmission system operates above the Nyquist rate, the new model has better performance than the conventional PRS using its inherent speed-tolerance. According to our investigations, Class-II PRS shows more excellent effect in the spectral-chopping method than Class- I and W types analyzed previously. We ascertain that the over-rate of 26.675 obtained by the inherent speed-tolerance could be improved upto 40% using spectrum-truncation. These effects come from the fact that the raised-cosine spectrum of Class-II PRS has smaller Boss of frequency component and energy than any other types for the same amount of truncation. In order to validate these theoretical results, we present their sidelobe-trends confirming cancellation effects at the sampling instants and some experimental results showing their patterns of eye-openings and spectra.

In this paper, minimum sampling rates and method of nonlinear characterization were suggested for low power, quasi-memoryless PAs. So far, the Nyquist rate of the input signal has been used for nonlinear PA modeling, and it is burdening Analog-to-digital converters for wideband signals. This paper shows that the input Nyquist rate sampling is not a necessary condition for successful modeling of quasi-memoryless PAs. Since this sampling requirement relives the bandwidth requirements for Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) for feedback paths in digital pre-distortion systems, relatively low-cost ADcs can be used to identify nonlinear PAs for wideband signal transmission, even at severe aliasing conditions. Simulation results show that a generic memoryless nonlinear RF power amplifier with AMAM and AMPM distortion can be successfully identified at any sampling rates. Measurement results show the modeling error variation is less than 0.8dB over any sampling rates.
