  • The design method of the center-fed resonant type slotted waveguide antenna using the Dolph-Tschebyscheff array is presented. Slot admittances are obtained by empirical and theoretical method since the effect of mutual coupling between slots is included. We design a slotted waveguide antenna which has 1.8ft. length and operates on 9.4GHz. The experimental results of the antenna show that its gain, maximum sidelobe level and half power beam-width are 25.5dB, -22dB and 3.6deg., respectively.

  • This paper presents the analysis of the required limit on a multibeam active phased array antenna (APAA) aperture using the statistical simulation for a High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS). The simulation takes into account the random errors caused by the non-identity of the array elements and the inaccuracy of the antenna calibration. The results of our statistical simulation show that the strict requirements on the sidelobe envelope for HAPSs can be met when the amplitude and phase distribution errors are minor, a condition which may be achieved by using digital beam forming.

  • For a parabolic reflector antenna, a simple method is presented for computing efficiently the average power pattern degradations caused by the surface roughness of the reflector and misalignments between the reflector and the feed. In this procedure, both nonuniform surface errors and nonuniform illuminations are employed. The assumptions to derive the expressions are that in each annular region of the antenna, the rms value of the surface roughness is known, and in a zone in a annular region, the phase error by misalignments is constant, and can be taken to its value at the center of the zone. Detailed parametric studies are performed with derived expressions to determine the effects of those errors and illumination tapers on parameters such as gain and sidelobe levels.

  • In this paper, the linearized power amplifier using digital adaptive predistorter is implemented in order to restrict spectral spreading and adjacent channel interference. The linearized systems is composed of a DSP56001 processor that executes predistortion in baseband. 90.deg. phase shifter, power splitter/combiner, quadrature modulator/demodulator of 360MHz band, and nonlinear amplifier. A ${\pi}$/4-shift QPSK is used to modulate digital random signals. As the quantized power of baseband signal and the output of amplifier are fed to the predistorter, and predistorting values are calculated using an adaptive algorithm. In the experiment, a peak to sidelobe ratio of the linearized amplifier is improved up to 15dB in comparison with conventional nonlinear amplifier, which means that the distortion of transmitted signal is decreased and adjacent channel interference was reduced.

  • In the case of aeroacoustic test in windtunnel, measurement accuracy is reduced by not only Doppler effects but also by the microphone self noise due to airflow and high turbulence in the wall boundary layer. Microphone array measurements can be easily utilized for the solutions of these problems. In this paper, geometrical optics approach and diagonal term elimination of cross spectral matrix was introduced to the de-dopplerization and self noise reduction methods for the microphone array measurement. For the validation, beamforming tests for sinusoidal point source were performed in the closed type test section of windtunnel, and their performances of beam width and sidelobe rejection were significantly improved.

Microstrip array antenna with phase lock of 0$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$, 90$^{\circ}$ are designed, to scan beam for 0$^{\circ}$, 6$^{\circ}$, 12$^{\circ}$ to be 1:2:2:1 for the relative current distribution. The designed microstrip array antenna with phase lock is measured in terms of various characteristics such as return loss, resonant frequency, radiation pattern, bandwidth, beamwidth, and the measurement value and theoretical value agreed with each other. Also, the patch array antenna with the relative current distribution is presented phase shift for beam scanning.

  • For the efficient recognition of Korean Alphabets, we proposed the tree structure algorithm which was based on K-tuple NRF-SDF using representative images as training images. Representative images consisted of ECP-SDF images of several consonants or vowels. To reduce the effect of sidelobe in the output correlation plane, we used the representative images as training images and obtained the elements of a vector inner product matrix using the peak value of AMPOF correlation of training images with one another. The proposed algorithm consisted of three main-step containing several substeps. In filter synthesis of each step, representative images were used as training images in the first and the second main-step and each consonant or vowel was used as training images in the third main-step. The performance of this algorithm is demonstrated by computer simulation and optical experiment.

  • In this paper, an efficient target speech detection algorithm is proposed for the performance improvement of multi-input speech enhancement. Using the normalized cross correlation value between two selected channels, the proposed algorithm estimates the probabilistic distribution function of the value from the pure noise interval. Then, log-likelihoods are calculated with the function and the normalized cross correlation value to detect the target speech interval precisely. The detection results are applied to the generalized sidelobe canceller-based algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm significantly improves the speech recognition performance and the signal-to-noise ratios.
