The proposed contactless charger employs a pair of neighboring printed circuit board windings as a contactless energy transfer device, thereby making it amenable to low-profile designs and suitable for applications to the portable telecommunication/computing electronics in which stringent requirements for height, space, and reliability have to be met. The performance of the proposed charger is confirmed with experiments on a prototype charger developed for cellular phones.

In this paper we propose a lock-in detection method for portable sensor systems and demonstrate with the portable detection module that has high sensitivity and robustness against the noise. The simple portable sensor module is manufactured using MCU(Micro Contorl Unit), OPAMP, MOSFET and a pair of infrared sensor. Manufactured sensor module is testified in the noisy environment caused by an external light and an white noise source. Without any type of band pass filters, we recover a signal of 33 $mV_{p-p}$ in 80 $mV_{p-p}$ white noise and get the DR(Dynamic Reserve) of 14 dB.

Traditional security mechanisms do not work well in the sensor network area due to the sensor's resource constraints. Therefore security issues are challenging problems on realization of the sensor network. Among them, the key establishment is one of the most important and challenging security primitives which establish initial associations between two nodes for secure communications. Recently, R. Anderson et al. proposed one of the promising key establishment schemes for commodity sensor network called Key Infection. However, key infection has an intrinsic vulnerability that there are some areas where adversaries can eavesdrop on the transferred key information at initial key establishment time. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a security-enhanced key establishment scheme for key infection by suggesting a mechanism which effectively reduces the vulnerable areas. The proposed security mechanism uses other neighbor nodes' additional key information to establish pair-wise key at the initial key establishment time. By using the additional key information, we can establish security-enhanced key establishment, since the vulnerable area is decreased than the key infection's. We also evaluate our scheme by comparing it with key infection using logical and mathematical analysis.

In this paper, the metamaterial transmission line (TL) based on the complementary spiral resonators (CSRs) and interdigital structure is presented for reducing the phase noise of the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). The metamaterial TL is realized by adopting the array of the CSRs etched on the ground plane and the interdigital transmission line on the signal plane. The interdigital TL on the signal plane has been used to obtain higher Q value than the conventional TL without the interdigital structure. The resonance properties and inherent saturation of Q value of the proposed metamaterial TL have been analyzed by varying the width of the TL on the signal plane, dimensions of the CSRs, current directions between the CSRs, number of the unit cell-pair of the CSRs, and whether or not there is the interdigital structure in this paper. The phase noise and tuning range of the proposed VCO are -127.50~-125.33 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz and 5.744~5.852 GHz.

Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) consists of huge number of sensor nodes which are small and inexpensive with very limited resources. The public key cryptography is undesirable to be used in WSN because of the limitations of the resources. A key management and predistribution techniques are required to apply the symmetric key cryptography in such a big network. Many key predistribution techniques and approaches have been proposed, but most of-them didn't consider the real WSN assumptions, In this paper, we propose a security framework that is based on a hierarchical grid for WSN considering the proper assumptions of the communication traffic and required connectivity. We apply simple keying material distribution scheme to measure the value of our framework. Finally, we provide security analysis for possible security threats in WSN.

The directivity of crossed waveguide directional coupler is generally decreased according as coupling coefficient of it increase. In this paper, the geomertical parameters of crossed slot pair for directivity improvement is modified and the formulas for design of it are proposed. The crossed waveguide directional coupler designed upon the formulas is fabricated with the WR42 waveguide in K-band. The measured results show that the coupling coefficient is 21.5 dB and directivity is minimum 23.9 dB over the operating frequency from 18GHz to 26.5GHz.

본 논문은 FTTC용 공유급전시스템을 구성하기 위한 광동복합케이블 연구에 관련한 것이다. 광섬유 및 구리 도체를 하나의 케이블에 포함한 복합케이블은 공유급전 시스템에서 포설 비용 절감 및 서비스의 운용 및 유지 보수의 효율 향상을 가능하게 한다. KT 운용시스템연구소의 공유급전 시스템 구성에 따라서 세 가지 type의 광동복합 케이블을 설계하였다. 구리 도체로는 200Vdc 출력 전력을 최대 500m까지 급전을 지원하는 0.65mm 직경의 구리 도체가 선정되었으며 KT 규격을 만족하는 일반 단일모드 광섬유가 적용되었다. 케이블 구조는 다심화에 유리하고 중간분기가 용이한 loose tube형 구조를 채택하였으며, 다심 케이블에서는 stranding된 3층의 집합 코아를 가지도록 설계하였다. 다심의 광동복합케이블은 32심 광섬유와 18페어(pair)의 동선을 실장하여, 두 조의 케이블로 32개의 ONU의 광신호전송 및 전력 공급이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한 포설 및 중간 분기 작업시 광섬유로의 접근이 용이하게 하기 위해 광섬유 튜브를 최외층에 배치하였다. 복합케이블은 상용 loose tube형 광케이블과 동일한 공정으로 제작되었으며, 기계적 및 환경적 특성에서 KT 규격을 만족하는 것을 확인하였다.

In order to enhance the rejection performance of the UWB bandpass filter based on the Composite Right- and Left-Handed Transmission-line(CRLH-TL) Metamaterial cell, we propose the lowpass filtering concept that fits into the design objectives : Keeping metamaterial property and miniaturization. So the bandpass filter itself is made far less than a quarter-wavelength and a pair of symmetric comprises lowpass filtering blocks are placed before and after the center CRLH filter which comprises tile interdigitated coupled lines and short-circuited stob. The design result will show the size of 'guided wavelength/8', the fractional bandwidth over 100%, the insertion loss much less than 1 dB, a flat Group-Delay and a good return loss performance, as expected.

Installation of the digital carrier system is increased rapidly in the telecommunication network, and most of systems are operating over a twisted pair conductor. Many systems are accommodated in multipair cable for their economical installation, therefore we must consider tha crosstalk interference between digital systesm. This paper considers the calculation method which determine crosstali interference between signals in multipair. And the transmission margin at a certain error rate is analyzed considering crosstalk power. Finally, this paper estimates the crosstalk noise susceptibility of 2.048Mbps relative to 1.544Mbps PCM system and 1.544Mbps relative to 2.048Mbps PCM system, and then considers the methos which both systems can operate together in a same cable.

Problems encountered in IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) design are interferences from neighboring or hidden nodes and collision from simultaneous transmissions within the same contention floors. This paper presents the selective decoding schemes in MAC protocol for multiple input multiple output ad-hoc networks. It is able to mitigate interferences by using a developed minimum mean-squared error technique. This interference mitigation combined with the maximum likelihood decoding schemes for the Alamouti coding enables the receiver to decode and differentiate the desired data streams from co-channel data streams. As a result, it allows a pair of simultaneous transmissions to the same or different nodes which yields the network utilization increase. Moreover, the presented three decoding schemes and time line operations are optimally selected corresponding to the transmission demand of neighboring nodes to avoid collision. The selection is determined by the number of request to send (RTS) packets and the type of clear to send packets. Both theoretical channel capacity and simulation results show that the proposed selective decoding scheme MAC protocol outperforms the mitigation interference using multiple antennas and the parallel RTS processing protocols for the cases of (1) single data stream and (2) two independent data streams which are simultaneously transmitted by two independent transmitters.
