A low phase noise CMOS voltage controlled oscillator(VCO) for multi-band/multi-standard RF Transceivers is presented. For both wide tunability and low phase noise characteristics, Hybrid inductor which uses both bondwire inductor and planar spiral inductor in the same area, is proposed. This approach reduces inductance variation and presents high quality factor without custom-designed single-turn inductor occupying large area, which improves phase noise and tuning range characteristics without additional area loss. An LC VCO is designed in a 0.13um CMOS technology to demonstrate the hybrid inductor concept. The measured phase noise is -121dBc/Hz at 400KHz offset and -142dBc/Hz at 3MHz offset from a 900MHz carrier frequency after divider. The tuning range of about 28%(3.15 to 4.18GHz) is measured. The VCO consumes 7.5mA from 1.3V supply and meets the requirements for GSM/EDGE and WCDMA standard.

인스턴트 메신저는 데스크탑 PC뿐 아니라 PDA, 핸드헬드 PC 같은 개인용 무선정보기기에서도 활발하게 이용되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 메신저가 데스크탑 환경을 고려한 기능을 그대로 사용하기 때문에 이동성이 있는 무선 환경에서는 활용성이 떨어지고, 사용하기에 불편한 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 리눅스 환경에서 사용자 음성인증로그인, RF 모듈을 이용한 자리비움 자동변환, 단문메시지서비스(Short Message Service) 등 무선 환경에서 필요한 기능을 제공하여 사용자 편리성을 제고한 무선 인스턴트 메시징 시스템의 설계와 구연에 대해 기술한다. 구현된 시스템은 과일전송과 단문메시지서비스를 위한 재버(Jabber) 기반의 프록시와 SMS 송신모듈을 갖는 서버와 USM(Ubiquitous, Smart, Mobile) 클라이언트로 구성된다. USM 클라이언트는 본 논문에서 라이트 XML 파서를 내장하여 메시지 통신시 클라이언트의 작업량을 크게 줄여 우선 클라이언트 프로그램의 최적화를 꾀하였다.

How well the self-interference cancellation (SIC) technique performs is a primary issue in realizing an in-band full-duplex (FD) wireless communication system. One factor affecting its performance is channel estimation error on the self-interference channel. We propose a new analog SIC scheme which is robust to channel estimation error. It uses phase rotators in the radio frequency (RF) chain. We also derive closed-form equations for the residual self-interference of the proposed and the conventional schemes. The analytical and numerical results show that the residual self-interference under the proposed SIC scheme is less than that using the conventional scheme, even though channel estimation error is present.

This paper realizes control of the motion of a swimming robot fish in order to implement an underwater robot fish aquarium. And it implements positional control of a two-axis trajectory path of the robot fish in the aquarium. The performance of the robot was verified though certified field tests. It provided excellent performance in driving force, durability, and water resistance in experimental results. It can control robot motion, that is, it recognizes an object by using an optical flow object-detecting algorithm, which uses a video camera rather than image-detecting sensors inside the robot fish. It is possible to find the robot's position and control the motion of the robot fish using a radio frequency (RF) modem controlled via personal computer. This paper proposes realization of robot fish motion-tracking control using the optical flow object-detecting algorithm. It was verified via performance tests of lead-lag action control of robot fish in the aquarium.

If we are to realize the everyday benefits promised by pervasive computing and context-aware applications, we must first develop the infrastructure to provide contextual location and orientation information through pervasive computing elements. We have implement indoor positioning system to supply orientation information. We have used ultrasound in indoor positioning system for distance and orientation measurements, then propose a set of methods to calculate orientation from an array of well placed ultrasonic sensors operating in the indoor positioning system. We have design and implement a indoor positioning system using a combination of hardware and software and demonstrate end-to-end functionality of the system.

가시광 영역에서의 높은 투과도와 낮은 전기 비저항을 갖는 ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) 박막은 현재 Display, Solar Cell, LED, Smart Phone 등 최첨단 IT산업에서 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 투명전극소재이다. IBD (Ion Beam Deposition)방법은 박막의 증착 방법 중 Plasma에서 독립적으로 이온만을 빔의 형태로 조사하여 박막을 증착하는 방법으로 기존 RF 또는 DC 스퍼터방법에 비해서 상대적으로 높은 진공도(low 10E-04 torr)와 비교적 높은 스퍼터 된 입자의 에너지를 가지는 등의 장점으로 증착 된 박막의 밀도, 거칠기가 향상되고 상대적으로 적은 결함을 가지는 박막의 제작에 사용되고 있는 기술이다. (주)인포비온에서는 IBD 기술과 더불어 표면만을 선택적으로 가열할 수 있는 EBA Technology를 사용하여 박막에 Energy를 전달하고, 이를 바탕으로 ITO 박막의 전기적, 광학적, 구조적인 특성의 변화를 관찰 연구했다 [1]. 본 연구에서는 기존의 Sputter 방법과 IBD 방법으로 증착 된 ITO 박막의 전기적, 광학적, 구조적인 특성 변화를 비교 관찰하였고, EBA 후처리로 ITO 박막을 상온에서 처리하여, 박막의 투과도, 면 저항, 미세구조의 변화를 관찰하였다. 각 특성의 변화는 UV-VIS, 4Point-Probe, TEM을 사용하여 분석하였고, 처리 전, 후의 박막의 결합에너지는 XPS로, 박막의 조성변화는 SIMS를 이용하여 각각 분석하였다.

This study proposes a route for surface modification for p-type cobalt oxide-based gas sensors. We deposit a thin layer of Ni on the Co oxide film by sputtering process and annealed at $350^{\circ}C$ for 15 min in air, which changes a typical sputtered film surface into one interlaced with a high density of hemispherical nanoparticles. Our in-depth materials characterization using transmission electron microscopy discloses that the microstructure evolution is the result of an extensive inter-diffusion of Co and Ni, and that the nanoparticles are nickel oxide dissolving some Co. Sensor performance measurement unfolds that the surface modification results in a significant sensitivity enhancement, nearly 200% increase for toluene (at $250^{\circ}C$) and CO (at $200^{\circ}C$) gases in comparison with the undoped samples.

Recently, there was an increasing demand for an integrated access control system which is capable of user recognition, door control, and facility operations control for smart buildings automation. The market available door lock access control solutions need to be improved from the current level security of door locks operations where security is compromised when a password or digital keys are exposed to the strangers. At present, the access control system solution providers focusing on developing an automatic access control system using (RF) based technologies like bluetooth, WiFi, etc. All the existing automatic door access control technologies required an additional hardware interface and always vulnerable security threads. This paper proposes the user identification and authentication solution for automatic door lock control operations using camera based visible light communication (VLC) technology. This proposed approach use the cameras installed in building facility, user smart devices and IoT open source controller based LED light sensors installed in buildings infrastructure. The building facility installed IoT LED light sensors transmit the authorized user and facility information color grid code and the smart device camera decode the user informations and verify with stored user information then indicate the authentication status to the user and send authentication acknowledgement to facility door lock integrated camera to control the door lock operations. The camera based VLC receiver uses the artificial intelligence (AI) methods to decode VLC data to improve the VLC performance. This paper implements the testbed model using IoT open-source based LED light sensor with CCTV camera and user smartphone devices. The experiment results are verified with custom made convolutional neural network (CNN) based AI techniques for VLC deciding method on smart devices and PC based CCTV monitoring solutions. The archived experiment results confirm that proposed door access control solution is effective and robust for automatic door access control.
