This paper proposes a symbol timing recovery method that is simple in structure and can provide high speed symbol synchronization. Transmitter and receiver are not synchronized in communication systems using digital modulation. Receiver should search the timing variation of transmitter continuously. The proposed timing recovery method searches sample position by comparing previous sample value with next sample value. This method can be applied to digital and optical transceivers with high data rate.

The purpose of satellite navigation meaconing jamming is to make the target GPS receiver calculate false navigation by meaconing the received satellite signals. At this time, since the received and transmitted signals have the same frequency, the back-lobe reduction level of antenna should be -160 dB when the Effective Radiated Power (ERP) is 1 Watt (30 dBm). Therefore, meaconing jamming is impossible by merely reducing the back-lobe level of antenna when the transmitter and receiver are in proximity to each other. In general, the transmitter and receiver are isolated by the time division method to eliminate such transmission/reception interference. This paper studied the optimal switching timing between transmitting and receiving when isolating the time division transmission and reception for GPS meaconing jamming.

본 논문에서는 2.45GHz 대역 IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN(Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network; ZigBee) 시스템의 수신기를 위한 개선된 방식의 Timing estimator의 알고리즘을 제안한다. 저가 구현을 지향하는 LR-WPAN 시스템의 특성상 고가의 오실레이터를 사용할 수 없으므로 반송파 중심 주파수의 80ppm에 해당하는 주파수 옵셋 환경에서 안정된 동작이 가능한 Timing estimator 알고리즘이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 수신 환경을 고려하여 Multiple delay differential filter를 적용함으로써 주파수 옵셋에 대한 강인성 및 수신 성능의 안정성을 증대시켰으며, Multiple delay differential filter의 출력 신호에 대한 reference 신호의 상관 결과가 I-channel 에만 국한되는 특성을 이용하여 일반적인 noncoherent 방식 대신 coherent 방식의 correlator를 적용함으로써 non-coherent 방식의 제곱 손실을 제거하여 검출 성능을 향상시킴과 동시에 복잡도를 감소시켜 초소형, 저전력, 저가를 지향하는 LR-WPAM 수신기에 보다 적합하도록 설계하였다. 다양한 채널 환경에서의 성능정가를 통하여 제안된 알고리즘이 differential detection 기반의 noncoherent 방식보다 평균적으로 2dB의 향상된 성능을 보임을 입증하였다.

펄스 방식(Impulse radio)의 초광대역(Ultra-Wideband) 시스템의 타이밍 동기과정에서 획득/추적 과정이 이상적으로 수행되더라도 잔여 타이밍 오차는 존재하게 된다. 이러한 잔여 타이밍 오차는 시스템의 성능에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 상관 검출 수신기에서 미세 타이밍 오차를 보상하기 위해 보조신호(Reference signal)를 이용한 디지털 위상고정 루프(Digital Phase-Locked Loop)를 제시한다. 우선, 미세 타이밍 오차에 의한 비트에러률(Bit Error Rate:BER)의 성능 열화를 고찰한 후, 타이밍 추적기를 사용함으로써 타이밍 오차가 보상되는 과정과 보상 후 BER 성능을 제시한다. 그리고 타이밍 검출기는 보조신호와 수신신호간의 상관을 이용하는 방식이 제안되었으며 샘플링 주기는 프레임 단위로 이루어지도록 설계되었다. 또한, 본 논문은 성능비교를 위해 여러 종류의 가우시안 모노사이클 펄스에 대해 성능 평가를 수행한다.

Satellite and receiver Inter-Frequency Biases (IFBs) should be estimated or calibrated by pre-defined values for generating precise navigation messages and augmentation data in satellite navigation systems or the augmentation system. In this paper, a Kalman filter is designed and implemented to estimate the ionospheric delay and satellite/receiver IFBs using a regional receiver network. First, an ionospheric model and its filter parameter is defined based on previous studies. Second, a measurement model for estimating the relative satellite/receiver IFBs without any constraints is proposed. Third, a procedure for ensuring the continuity of estimation is proposed in this paper. To verify the performance of the designed filter, six Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORSs) are selected. Finally, the stability and accuracy of satellite/receiver IFB estimation are analyzed.

In this paper we describe the design of symbol timing and carrier synchronization algorithms for burst receiver. The demodulator consists of digital down converter, matched filter and synchronization circuits. For symbol timing recovery we use modified Gardner algorithm. And we use decision directed method for carrier phase recovery. For the sake of performance analysis, we compare simulation results with the board implemented by FPGA which is APEX20KE series chip for Alter. The performance results show it works quite well up to the condition that a frequency offset equal to 0.1% of symbol rate.

In this paper, the performance of ranging measurement, which is generated using two receiver clock offsets in one receiver, was analyzed. A spoofer transmits a counterfeited spoofing signal which is similar to the GPS signal with hostile purposes, so the same tracking technique can be applied to the spoofing signal. The multi-correlator can generate two receiver clock offsets in one receiver. The difference between these two clock offsets consists of the path length from the spoofer to the receiver and the delay of spoofer system. Thus, in this paper, the ranging measurement was evaluated by the spoofer localization performance based on the time-of-arrival (TOA) technique. The results of simulation and real-world experiments show that the position and the system clock offset of the spoofer could be estimated successfully.

In this paper, we implement a navigation software of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver based on a commercial purpose GNSS software receiver platform and verify its performance by performing experimental tests for various GNSS signals available in Korea region. The SX3, employed in this paper, is composed of an application program and a Radio Frequency (RF) frontend, and can capture and process multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS signals. All the signal processing procedure of SX3 is accessible by the receiver software designer. In particular for an easy research and development, the Application Programing Interface (API) of the SX3 has a flexible architecture to upgrade or change the existing software program, equipped with a real-time monitoring function to monitor all the API executions. Users can easily apply and experiment with the developed algorithms using a form of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) files. Thus, by utilizing this flexible architecture, the cost and effort to develop a GNSS receiver can be greatly reduced.

For detection of digitally modulated signals, the receiver must be provide with accurate carrier phase and symbol timing estimates. So far, tots of algorithms have been suggested for those purposes. In general, a interpolation filter with TED(Timing Error Detection) like Gardner algorithm is popularly used for symbol timing estimate of digital communication receiver. Apart from the performance point of view, a multiplicative operation of any interpolation filter limits the symbol rate of the system. Hence, we suggest a new symbol timing estimate algorithm for high speed burst-mode fixed wireless communication system and analyze its performance in the AWGN channel.

This paper presents a parallel processing searcher structure for the initial synchronization of a direct sequence ultra-wideband (DS-UWB) system, which is suitable for the digital implementation of baseband functionalities with a 1.32 Gsample/s chip rate analog-to-digital converter. An initial timing acquisition algorithm and a data demodulation method are also studied. The proposed searcher effectively acquires initial symbol and frame timing during the preamble transmission period. A hardware efficient receiver structure using 24 parallel digital correlators for binary phase-shift keying DS-UWB transmission is presented. The proposed correlator structure operating at 55 MHz is shared for correlation operations in a searcher, a channel estimator, and the demodulator of a RAKE receiver. We also present a pseudo-random noise sequence generated with a primitive polynomial, $1+x^2+x^5$, for packet detection, automatic gain control, and initial timing acquisition. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed parallel processing searcher employing the presented pseudo-random noise sequence outperforms that employing a preamble sequence in the IEEE 802.15.3a DS-UWB proposal.
