In this paper, we mainly analyze the performance of two ultra wideband communication systems, the classical Time Hopping Binary Pulse Position Modulation (TH-BPPM) UWB system and the Time Hopping Bipolar Pulse Amplitude Modulation (TH-BPAM) UWB system. The performance of TH-BPPM and TH-BPAM is analyzed in detail under an ideal AWGN channel and a correlation receiver. We use the power spectral density function to get the expression of BER of these two UWB systems. It yields simple and exact formulas relating the performance to the system parameters. The analysis shows that TH-BPPM suffers performance degradation with respect to TH-BPAM. Furthermore, we give the computer simulation of both data and image transmission and our simulation results also prove our theoretical analysis.

본 논문에서는 새로운 변조방식을 사용한 단상 인버터 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 buck-boost 변환기와 인버터로 구성되며 새로운 변조방식인 PWAM(Pulse Width/Amplitude Modulation)방식을 사용하여 제어한다. PWAM방식은 PWM(Pulse Width Modulation)방식과 PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation) 방식이 혼합된 새로운 변조방식이며 인버터의 입력단에 위치한 buck-boost 변환기는 일정한 직류전압을 입력으로 받아 가변 직류전압으로 변환한다. 인버터는 buck-boost 변환기에서 출력된 가변 직류전압을 입력으로 하며, PWM 구간에서는 PWM 스위칭을 하고 PAM 구간에서는 인버터가 스위칭을 하지 않음으로써 정현 교류전압으로 변환한다. 제안한 PWAM방식을 사용한 단상 인버터 시스템은 PAM 구간에서 스위칭 동작을 하지 않으므로 기존의 방식에 비해 스위칭 횟수가 감소하여 스위칭 손실을 줄일 수 있다.

In this paper, we extend ultra-wideband (UWB) single input single output (SISO) systems with a hybrid pulse amplitude and position modulation (PAPM) to single input multiple output (SIMO) systems using receive antenna diversity. The performance of a rake receive diversity combining scheme for UWB SIMO systems with a PAPM is examined in a log-normal multipath fading channel and also compared with that of a time-switched transmit diversity (TSTD) multiple input single output (MISO) system. It is seen that as the number of receive antennas increases, the receive diversity combining system improves the error performance. It is shown that the TSTD UWB MISO systems offer the performance equivalent to the receive diversity combining scheme for SIMO systems.

This paper presents a transition-limited pulse-amplitude modulation (TLPAM) signaling method to enable a high data rate and robust wireline communications. TLPAM signaling addresses the impact of high intersymbol interference (ISI) ratios in conventional M-ary PAM signaling methods by limiting the maximum voltage transition level between adjacent symbols. The implementation of a TLPAM signaling encoder is realized by setting back the most significant bits (MSBs) in the queue. The correlation between TLPAM's maximum transition level, effective data rate, and eye width/height is analyzed with various channel loss parameters, followed by characterization and measurement results with a realistic channel setup. The analysis and experimental results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed TLPAM signaling scheme for achieving a high data rate with minimal interference.

A novel ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver structure is presented to be used in wireless body area networks (WBANs). In the proposed structure, a data channel and a control channel are combined into a single transmission signal. In the signal, a modulation method mixing pulse position modulation and pulse amplitude modulation is proposed. A mathematical framework calculating the power spectrum density of the proposed pulse-based signal evaluates its coexistence with conventional radio systems. The transceiver structure is discussed, and the receiving performance is investigated in the additive white Gaussian noise channel. It is demonstrated that the proposed scheme is easier to match to the UWB emission mask than conventional UWB systems. The proposed scheme achieves the data rate requirement of WBAN; the logical control channel achieves better receiving performance than the logical data channel, which is useful for controlling and maintaining networks. The proposed scheme is also easy to implement.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the fundamental properties of the gradual muscle force potentiation. We investigated the dependence of force potentiation on both the pulse-amplitude and the pulse-duration with different ramp-up time. The experimental results showed that the force increment ratio (FIR) during constant electrical stimulation decreased with pulse-amplitude and also with pulse-duration. The FIR was greater with short ramp-up time in both the pulse-amplitude and pulse-width modulation. The feasible mechanism might be that the myosin light chain phosphorylation induces the force potentiation and it occurs only in the fast type muscle fibers which are recruited first. These observations indicate that muscle potentiation must be understood well for the accurate control of muscle force.

This paper describes a digital implementation of a pulse amplitude modulation(PAM) method for a unity-power-factor buck-booster converter. A digital controller is designed and implemented by a Digital Signal Processor(DSP) to replace the analog control circuit for PAM. Experimental results are presented and compared with simulations.

Usually, in many applications, high frequency resonant inverters are used, and the PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation), PFM(Pulse Frequency Modulation) or PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) techniques are used to control the output power of resonant inverters. In this paper, a new switching scheme is proposed as a PWM control method. With the proposed method, it can be obtained that unity output displacement factor under the variable resonant frequency. The detail algorithm of the proposed PWM switching scheme and its charicteristics are discussed. And the validity of the proposed method is confirmed with the experimental results.

In this letter, a novel M-ary code-selected direct sequence (DS) ultra-wideband (UWB) communication system is presented. Our purpose is to achieve a high data rate by an M-ary code-selected direct sequence bipolar pulse amplitude modulation (MCSDS-BPAM) scheme. In this system, a particular DS code sequence is selected by the $log_2M$/2 bits from the DS gold code set. This scheme can accomplish both a high data rate without increasing the system bandwidth or changing the pulse shape and improve the BER with an increase of modulation level M even at a lower signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The receiver signal processing algorithm is given for an MCSDS-BPAM UWB system over an ideal AWGN channel and correlation receivers.

무선 통신 시스템에서 사용자간 협력방식은 중계노드들이 송신노드로부터 수신한 정보를 전달해 주어 최종 수신신호의 신뢰도를 향상시킨다. 본 논문에서는, 독립적이고 동일하게 분포된 레일레이 페이딩 채널을 고려하여 사용자간 협력을 위한 디코딩 후 전달 중계방식에 대한 비트 오차율의 분석을 수행한다. 변조방식으로는 M-ary PAM (Pulse Amplitude Modulation), QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation), PSK (Phase Shift Keying) 방식을 이용한다. 따라서, 주어진 중계노드의 수에 대하여 각 변조방식에 대한 비트 오차율 식을 유도한다. 최종적으로, 유도된 비트 오차율 식의 수치적 결과와 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교하여 유도된 식을 검증하고, 중계노드의 수에 따른 비트 오차율 성능 변화를 관찰한다.
