When we transmit signals, which are quantized by the vector quantizer (VQ), through noisy channels, the overall performance of the coding system is very dependent on the employed quantization scheme and the channel error effect. In order to design an optimal coding system, the source and channel coding scheme should be jointly optimized as in the channel-optimized VQ. As a suboptimal approach, we may consider the robust VQ (RVQ). In RVQ, we consider developing an index assignment function for mapping the output of quantizers to channel symbols so that the effect of the channel errors is minimized. Recently, a VQ, which can reduce the encoding complexity and is called the sample-adaptive product quantizer (SAPQ), has been proposed. SAPQ has very similar quantizer structure as to the product quantizer (PQ). However, the quantization performance can be better than PQ. Further, the encoding complexity and the memory requirement for the codebooks are lower than the regular full-search VQ case. In this paper, SAPQ is employed in order to design an RVQ to channel errors by reducing the vector dimension. Discussions on the codebook structure of SAPQ and experiments are introduced in an aspect of robustness to noisy channels.

In this paper, we investigate array calibration algorithms to derive a further improved version for correcting antenna array errors and RF transceiver errors in CDMA smart antenna systems. The structure of a multi-channel RF transceiver with a digital calibration apparatus and its calibration techniques are presented, where we propose a new RF receiver calibration scheme to minimize interference of the calibration signal on the user signals. The calibration signal is injected into a multi-channel receiver through a calibration signal injector whose array response vector is controlled in order to have a low correlation with the antenna response vector of the receive signals. We suggest a model-based antenna array calibration to remove the antenna array errors including mutual coupling errors or to predict the element patterns from the array manifold measured at a small number of angles. Computer simulations and experiment results are shown to verify the calibration algorithms.

In this paper we propose a new structure of the long code MMSE receiver with pilot channel, which maintians excellent symbol detection capability even in the presence of Rayleigh fading. We explain analytically how the stability of the receiver weight vector, which is critical to the system performance, can be achieved by compensating the error signal as well as received signal vector distorted by fading channel. Computer simulation shows while maintaining better performance than the conventional matched filter receiver, the proposed long code MMSE receiver can extend its period up to $16{\times}T_b$ in a fading environment.

A new method on the hardware implementation of multi-channel Finite Impulse Response(FIR) digital filter using vector multiplication structure is proposed. The proposed method can reduce the complexity of hardware structure and improve execution speed. The frequency response of four channel digital filter implemented by the above method is quite agreeable with the frquency response simulated by Remez method.

Streaming video is expected to become a key service in the developing heterogeneous wireless network. However, sufficient quality of service is not offered to video applications because of bursty packet losses. An effective solution for packet loss in wireless network is to perform a proper concealment at the receiver. However, most concealment methods can not conceal effectively the consecutively damaged macro blocks, since the neighboring blocks are lost. In the previous work, bidirectional motion vector tracking (BMVT) method has been proposed which uses the moving trajectory feature of the damaged macro blocks. In this paper, a channel-adaptive redundancy coding method for the better BMVT error concealment is presented. The proposed method provides enhanced video quality at the cost of a little bit overhead in the wireless error-prone network.

This paper discusses the development of a acoustic vector channel simulator for the performance analysis of a acoustic digital communication system. The channel simulator consists of transmission module, acoustic channel model, receiver, beamformer, and adaptive equalizer. QPSK source signal is generated by the parameters specified by a user and transmitted. The transmitted signal generate multipath signals which have a different delay, amplitude, and dopper Sequency. The multipath signals with the acoustic noises is the received signal. We can analysis the communication system performance according to the antenna structure, beamforming algorithm, and equalization algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a new channel identification technique for long code DS/CDMA DMB down link system which estimate the channel response based on the signal space vector only, unlike the most conventional subspace method relying on the orthogonal property of noise space vectors to the signal space vector. Because of this property of the proposed method, it is optimum and practical in manipulation of the covariance matrix to be analyzed. In the paper, we derive the mathematical expression necessary to clarify the proposed method and show the relevant simulation and numerical results to verify the validity of the proposed algorithm.

The IOVMM(Incoherent Optical Vector Matrix Multiplier) is constructed, which can process much information very fast by incogerent light source, and its experimental results are compared with the theoretical values. The input vector and matirx elements are limited to the positive number in this paper. The input vector is made by the LED array and the matrix is encoded on the film by the area modulation method. The result of the vector-matrix multiplication is detected by the photodiode array through the lens system. The analog multiplexer is used for looking at output signal on one channel.
