We examined the temporal characteristics of the oceanic eddy diffusion at 5 coastal regions of Korea by measuring the separation distances of multiple drifters released simultaneously at the same by the GPS and Decca transponder system. The observed variance of separation distance, for the time scales from minutes to hours, is proportional to t/SUP m/ with scaling exponent m between 1.2 and 2.0. The observed Lagrangian trajectories of drifters show fractal characteristics instead of random walk or Brown motion. As an effort toward a development of a realistic model of the oceanic eddy diffusion, we simulated the Lagrangian trajectories of drifters by fractional Brown motion (FBM) model. The observed variances of drifter separations can be generated by the FBM process provided the Hurst exponent is the same as the observed one. We further showed that the observed power law in the variance of drifter separations cannot be simulated with an ordinary Brown motion or random walk process.

An RFID system comprises a reader and a tag, and this paper focuses on a tag design. A UHF tag is activated by energy supply using electromagnetic waves and energy reflection through impedance mismatching. The tag uses a $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS process and comprises a digital part executing tag protocols, a 512-bit memory, and an analog part having a rectifier, a modulation/demodulation unit, a clock generator, etc. The total dimension of the tag, including a saw line, is $750{\mu}m*750{\mu}m$ and the power consumption of the tag consumption power is about $17.8{\mu}W$ at a supply voltage of 2V.

Satellite communication system uses a high non-linear HPA(high power amplifiers) in the earth station and satellite transponder. Therefore, it is important to consider the nonlinear effect of HPA on the communication system. In this paper, we find the variation of power spectrum density by nonlinearity HPA and the change of harmonic component according to IBO (input back-off). When the BPSK is used for satellite communication system, we analyze BER performance including the external co-channel interference (CCI) and the adjacent channel interference (ACI) resulting from the HPA nonlinearity. BER degrades as ACI magnitude grows up when the uplink SNR, uplink SIR (signal to co-channel interference power ratio) and downlink SIR are constant at some level. In case there is only non-linear HPA in the satellite, it is shown that BER considerably depends on the ACI magnitude ACI. When there are two non-linear HPAs in the both earth station and satellite, much BER degradation results from the CCI and ACI.

Based on the performance analyses for transmission channel and signal characteristics in digital satellite broadcasting system. the optimal design parameter values for system using QPSK modulation technique were proposed in this paper. The proper performance degradation were of 2.0dB for channel characteristics. O.4dB for transmission signal characteristics and 0.2dB for receiver characteristics. respectively. In this case. the design objectives for system parameters were within ${\pm}\;0.5dB$ for gain flatness in 27MHz bandwidth. and O.1nsec/MHz and $0.2sec/MHz^2$ for linear and parabolic group delay. respectively. Also. the optimal parameter values that provide the maximum availability were of OdB OBO for satellite transponder TWTA. and the optimal bandwidth for PLL circuit was of 40kHz with 0.707 damping factor. These analyses and design values can be available for high data rate transmission system via satellite.

A RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) system is a kind of radio frequency communication system and a branch of automatic data collection system. RFID system consists of RFID tags(or transponders) and RFID readers(controllers). This paper deals with the wireless communication that acquires tag IDs through RFID readers, and show the implementation of the target system which transmits tag IDs and related information to the server on the Internet through the wireless local area network. Today's RFID systems are usually implemented with the wired communication environment. In this paper, however, RFID system is effectively realized with the widely deployed wireless local area network and various RFID data can be collected by the readers which are communicating with the wireless access points of the local area network. Through the Internet, users also can have easy access to the server on the web and retrieve, analyze, and utilize tags' information.

This paper presents the development of a 10 W solid-state hybrid power amplifier(SSPA). operating over $7.7\sim8.5GHz$. The fabrication and measurement of this amplifier are performed with 3 sections, such as the front one for high gain, the middle one for driving, and high power one, to minimize the risk of failure and to increase the easiness of development. and then the final amplifier is realized by connecting 3 sections above mentioned, DC bias circuit, and temperature compensation circuit on one housing. Total small signal gain obtained is about $45\pm1dB$, the input and output return losses are 25 and 27 dB respectively. The output power measured at 1 dB gain compression point for 3 frequencies at 7.7, 8.1, and 8.5 GHz are $39.8\sim40.4dBm$, which is about 10 W. and the 3rd-order harmonic powers of 2 tones test are 13.34 dBc at output power 37.5 dBm. These obtained results satisfies the initially required specification. and the realized SSPA can be installed as a subsystem of the microwave transponder for telecommunication.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm to solve the problem that can't maintain hop synchronization using only early-late gate tracking loop due to the drift of geo-stationary satellite in frequency hopping satellite communication system. When the signal is transferred to downlink through DRT(Dehop-Rebop Transponder), the problem with synchronization loss is occurred periodically when using only early-late gate tracking loop, because of energy loss in each side portion of hop due to orbital variation of the satellite. To solve this problem, we have developed Anti-Shrink synchronization tracking algorithm which uses the prediction value of transmission timing and the structure of inner-outer gate instead of early-late gate with the ranging information. Through simulations, we showed that the performance of the Anti-Shrink algorithm is better than that of simple inner-outer energy ratio algorithm and similar to that of conventional early-late tracking loop algorithm with ranging information. No synchronization failure in the proposed algorithm was occurred because of less energy loss and robustness without the ranging information.

Broad band and wide area satellite communication has advantage that can be always communicate with anyone regardless of time and space. In the other hands, its communication quality is easy to be affected by interference signals. Due to the fact that interference signal can be transmitted from everywhere, it's hard to find the illegal source of signal and it has huge influence. In this paper, with this influence of interference signal, we introduce the interference rejection method, implementation and test result in the digital satellite communication processing the signal using variety of digital method. It will be useful information to improve the interference rejection function and also be helpful on the field of satellite communication.

Using COMSAT which provides multi-beam switching function, the optimal transmission channel environment which provides the high data rate communication are proposed in this paper. Also the link budget for communication transponder of COMSAT is designed. Based on the channel modeling for group delay, non-linear and gain flatness characteristics, the system performances which provide various data rate services were analyzed in Ka-band satellite channel. As the transmission data rate is increased, the degradation due to these channel characteristics is severely increased. The linear component of group delay and the AM-AM component of non-linear characteristics severely affect the system performance. To efficiently provide the various service via the same transmission system it is necessary to equalize the primary impairment factors. The optimum operating points of HDR satellite transmission system are implemented and operated by considering the analyzed results on channel characteristics.
