In this paper, we propose an iterative self-interference (SI) channel estimation method for in-band full-duplex cellular systems that employ orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) on downlink (DL) and single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) on uplink (UL), as in Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems. The proposed method first acquires coarse estimates of SI channels using DL signals and UL pilots, which are known to the base stations, and then refines the estimates by consecutively exploiting averaging in the frequency domain and channel truncation in the time domain. In addition, the method enhances the estimates further by iteratively executing this estimation procedure, and does not require any radio resources dedicated to SI channel estimation. Simulation results demonstrate that by significantly improving the SI channel estimation performance without requiring exact knowledge of the SI channel length, the proposed method achieves UL channel estimation performance and signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) performance very close to those in perfect SI cancellation.

We report the spectral characteristics of Multimode Interferometer (MMI)-coupled semicondoctor square ring resonators. The epitaxial layers of the proposed semiconductor ring resonator consists of $1.55{\mu}m$ GaInAsP-InP multiple quantum wells. The lasing characteristics were observed by varying the structure parameters of the MMI-coupled square ring resonators. It is concluded that the MMI-coupled scheme selects a single spectral lasing mode in the double square ring cavities.

Channel allocation is one of the important issues in the multichannel transmission. In the cognitive radio networks, channel allocation scheme should be designed to improve spectrum efficiency without interfering with the transmission of licensed users. In this paper, we propose a spectrum hole prediction based channel allocation scheme. The proposed channel allocation scheme, predicts spectrum hole by using the channel success rate, and limit the transmission of secondary user's data, and it reduces the interference to the primary user. The performance of proposed channel allocation scheme is evaluated by the computer simulation.

낮은 공정비용과 높은 집적도를 가지는 플래시 메모리 소자에 대한 휴대용기기에 응용가능성때문에 연구가 필요하다. 플래시 메모리 중에서도 질화막에 전하를 저장하는 전하 포획 플래시 메모리 소자는 기존의 부유 게이트 플래시 메모리 소자에 비해 공정의 단순하고 비례축소에 용이하며 인접 셀 간의 간섭에 강하다는 장점으로 많은 관심을 갖게 되었다. 소자의 크기가 작아짐에 따라 전하 포획 플래시 메모리 소자 역시 인접 셀 간의 간섭현상과 단채널 효과가 문제를 해결할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 인접 셀 간의 간섭을 최소화 시키기 위하여 metal-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (MONOS) 플래시 메모리 소자에 bit-line 방향으로 금속 공간층을 삽입할 구조를 사용하였으며 금속 공간층의 깊이에 따른 전기적 성질을 비교하였다. 게이트 길이는 30 nm, 금속 공간층의 깊이를 채널 표면에서부터 4 nm~12 nm까지 변화하면서 TCAD 시뮬레이션 툴인 Sentaurus를 사용하여 전기적 특성을 계산하였다. 금속 공간층의 깊이가 채널표면에 가까워 질수록 fringing field가 증가하여 드레인 전류가 증가하였고, 금속 공간층의 전기적 차폐로 인해 인접 셀의 간섭현상도 감소하였다. 금속 공간층이 표면에 가까이 위치할수록 전하 저장층을 감싸는 면적이 증가하여 coupling ratio가 높아지기 때문에 subthreshold swing 특성이 향상되었으나, 금속 누설전류가 증가하였다.

A Fiber optic strain sensor for the measurement of the internal strain of a concrete specimen was developed. This sensor was a 11 mm Fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometer attached inside a stainless steel pipe of 2 mm diameter. The fabricated strain sensors were embedded in a reinforced concrete structure of $100{\times}100{\times}500\;mm^3$ size and were measured the internal strain of a concrete structure when the external pressure was applied to the structure. For a field application, the strain sensors were attached on the bottom of a real bridge and dynamic loading test were executed. In the test, they showed good sensitivity as a deformation sensor and capability of remote monitoring.

본 논문에서는 수신된 CW 신호로부터 Morse 코드를 자동 인식하는 알고리듬을 제안하였다. 전체 알고리듬은 수신된 CW 신호로부터 잡음 및 간섭신호 성분을 제거하고 신호의 존재유무를 판정하는 부분, 신호 길이의 변화를 극복하여 Morse 코드의 요소(Long, Short, Null set)로부터 코드로 판독하는 부분으로 구성되었다. 제안된 알고리듬은 CW 신호의 주파수, 위상 및 길이 정보가 필요 없으며, 모의 실험 결과, SNR -15dB, $20\%$의 신호 길이 변화 환경에서도 $100\%$의 해석률을 나타내었다.

We propose a new frame length control scheme for cognitive radio systems. In the proposed algorithm, the property that the probability of a primary packet arrival continually increases as time elapses during the primary user's idle period is utilized. When reducing the secondary frame length in accordance with the increasing primary packet arrival probability, spectrum sensing is conducted more frequently as time elapses and the primary packet arrival is detected more quickly. We obtain the optimal frame lengths by maximizing the secondary throughput while satisfying the interference constraint. Numerical results show a significant throughput enhancement via the frame length control.

Spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction (SPIDER) was fabricated and used to characterize pulses from a Ti:sapphire oscillator. In the SPIDER apparatus, two replicas of the input pulse were generated with a time delay of 200 fs and were upconverted by use of sum-frequency generation with a strongly chirped pulse using a 8-cm-long SFIO glass block at a 30-11m-thick type II BBO (p-BaBz04) crystal. The resulting interferogram was recorded with a UV-enhanced CCD array in the spectrometer. The spectral phase was retrieved by SPIDER algorithm in combination with independently measured pulse spectrum and the corresponding temporal intensity profile was reconstructed with a duration of 19 fs. As an independent cross-check of the accuracy of the method, we compared the interferometric autocorrelation (lAC) signal calculated from the SPIDER data with a separately measured lAC. The conventional, but unjustified, method of fitting a sechz pulse to the autocorrelation deceivingly yielded a pulse duration of 15 fs. This systematic underestimation of the pulse duration affirms the need for a complete characterization method. From the consideration in this paper, we concluded that the SPIDER could provide an accurate characterization of femtosecond pulses. ulses.

In this paper, an integrated optical, evanescent-wave biosensor utilizing a multimode interferometer based on a Si₃N₄ rib-optical waveguide consisting of the Si/SiO₂/Si₃N₄/SiO₂ stacked structure was described. The theoretical background of the multimode interferometer was reviewed, and the structure and design process were presented through numerical computational analysis. We analyzed how the dimension (length, width) of the multimode interferometer affected the sensor performance. It has been confirmed through computational analysis that the changes in the refractive index of an analyte greatly affect the mode pattern formation position and output optical power of a multimode interferometer, and proved that this principle could be applied to integrated-optic biosensor.

In this paper, error performance of DS/CDMA GMSK system has been analyzed in a radio channel which is characterized by multi-user interference(MUI) and Nakagami fading. The DS/CDMA GMSK system adopts Maximum Ratio Combining(MRC) diversity and co-channel interference (CCI) to enhance system performance. Using the derived error probability equation, the error performance of DS/CDMA GMSK system has been evaluated and shown in figures to discuss as a function of PN code length(N), number of multi-user(K), number of diversity branch(L), and bit energy per noise power ratio ($E_b/N_0$), fading index(m). The results show that there is a substantial enhancement in performance by employing an MRC diversity or a CCI canceller. Additional improvement can be obtained when the MRC diversity and the CCI canceller are adopted in cascade form. Consequently, we expected that proposed system structure is reliable to the voice communication system in Nakagami fading, multi-user interferences and multipath channel.
