In this paper, the adaptive MPSAM is suggested in order to analyze and improve problems caused by the case of the impact of delay waves on Pilot Symbol Assisted Modulation (PSAM), a singular Pilot method. PSAM predicts and compensates amplitude and phases caused on fading channels, using the Pilot Symbol. In addition, the Basic method is not only analyzed but also grafted onto the suggested method properly; therefore, the performance could be improved. Comparing to the Basic method, the BER performance can be distinguished in case that the level of delay on delay waves with the suggested method goes below 0.7. On the other hand, the BER performance can be inferior due to a considerable effect of the adjacent symbol in the event that the level of delay on delay waves is worse. However, the BER performance is rather improved on the point where the level of delay on delay waves is serious because the Basic method uses reciprocal compensation. Hence, stable improvement can be expected in all areas which receive the influence of delay waves within one symbol once grafted onto the suggested method.

A novel pixel circuit that uses only n-type low-temperature polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin-film transistors (LTPS-TFTs) to compensate the threshold voltage variation of a OLED driving TFT is proposed. The proposed 6T1C pixel circuit consists of 5 switching TFTs, 1 OLED driving TFT and 1 capacitor. When the threshold voltage of driving TFT varies by ${\pm}0.33$ V, Smartspice simulation results show that the maximum error rate of OLED current is 7.05 % and the error rate of anode voltage of OLED is 0.07 % at Vdata = 5.75 V. Thus, the proposed 6T1C pixel circuit can realize uniform output current with high immunity to the threshold voltage variation of poly-Si TFT.

Future communication networks would consist of wired and wireless access networks where there would be various types of traffic services. To meet the QoS requirements of those various traffic services simultaneously, new QoS control schemes are required. Since they are simple to deploy, cheep to manage, and easy to support subscriber mobility, wireless access networks are considered here. In this paper, a wireless joint buffer management and scheduling (W-JoBS) scheme, which is a modified version of the original JoBS algorithm at error-prone wireless access networks, is proposed. W-JoBS scheme is for providing service fairness among traffic classes with service compensation and channel-state dependent packet scheduling schemes. With computer simulation, this proposed W-JoBS scheme is evaluated and the performance of W-JoBS is compared with that of the original JoBS.

A novel OLED pixel circuit is proposed in this paper that uses only n-type thin-film transistors(TFTs) to improve the luminance non-uniformity of the AMOLED display caused by the threshold voltage variation of an OLED driving TFT. The proposed OLED pixel circuit is composed of 6 n-channel TFTs and 2 capacitors. The operation of the proposed OLED pixel circuit consists of the capacitor initializing period, threshold voltage sensing period of an OLED·driving TFT, image data voltage writing period, and OLED·emitting period. As a result of SmartSpice simulation, when the threshold voltage of·OLED·driving TFT varies from 1.2 V to 1.8 V, the proposed OLED pixel circuit has a maximum current error of 5.18 % at IOLED = 1 nA. And, when the OLED cathode voltage rises by 0.1 V, the proposed OLED pixel circuit has very little change in the OLED current compared to the conventional OLED pixel circuit. Therefore, the proposed pixel circuit exhibits superior compensation characteristics for the threshold voltage variation of an OLED driving TFT and the rise of the OLED cathode voltage compared to the conventional OLED pixel circuit.

When adapting the transmitter to the channel state information(CSI), improved transmission is possible compared to the open loop system where no CSI is provided at the transmitter. However, since the perfect channel information is rarely available at the transmitter, the system design based on the partial CSI becomes an important factor. Especially, in mobile environments, the consideration for the outdated CSI should be applied for mitigating the performance degradation. In this paper, we propose a robust adaptive modulation and coding scheme for bit-interleaved coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing over time-varying channels. With reasonable feedback overhead, the proposed scheme shows the enhanced performance by compensating for the outdated CSI due to Doppler spread. Simulation results confirm that the performance gain is achieved by applying an accurate BER estimation method.

In this paper, a contort- and speaker-dependent cepstrum extraction method and a channel normalization method for minimizing the loss of speaker characteristics in the cepstrum were proposed for a robust speaker recognition system over the channel. The proposed extraction method creates a cepstrum based on the pitch synchronous analysis using the inherent pitch of the speaker. Therefore, the cepstrum called the 〃pitch synchronous cepstrum〃 (PSC) represents the impulse response of the vocal tract more accurately in voiced speech. And the PSC can compensate for channel distortion because the pitch is more robust in a channel environment than the spectrum of speech. And the proposed channel normalization method, the 〃formant-broadened pitch synchronous CMS〃 (FBPSCMS), applies the Formant-Broadened CMS to the PSC and improves the accuracy of the intraframe processing. We compared the text-independent closed-set speaker identification on 56 females and 112 males using TIMIT and NTIMIT database, respectively. The results show that pitch synchronous km improves the error reduction rate by up to 7.7% in comparison with conventional short-time cepstrum and the error rates of the FBPSCMS are more stable and lower than those of pole-filtered CMS.

CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) mobile communication systems require accurate channel estimation in the receiver to compensate the fading distortions. Instantaneous channel estimates are obtained by dividing the received symbol by the transmitted symbol and then refined by filtering to reduce the estimation variance. In the channel estimation filter, the determination of the filter size is a very important task which greatly affects the estimation quality. While conventional methods usually use only velocity estimators to determine the channel estimation filter size, this paper proposes a filter size determination method for decision-directed channel estimators considering the symbol error rate and the signal-to-noise ratio in addition to the velocity of the mobile station. This paper shows that the symbol error rate and the signal-to-noise ratio are important factors for the determination of the channel estimation filter size.

A purely analytical model for HEMT's based on a two dimensional charge control simul-ation[4] is proposed. In this model proper treatment of diffusion effect of electron transport along a 2-DEG (two dimensional electron gas) channel is perfoemed. This diffusion effect is shown to effectively increase the bulk mibility and threshold voltage of the I-V curves compared to the existing models. The channel thickness and gate capacitance are expressed as functions of gate voltages covering subthreshold characteristics of HEMT's analytically. By introducing the finite channel opening and an effiective channel-length modulation, the solpe of the saturation region of the I-V curves ws modeled. The smooth transition of the I-V curves at linear-to-saturation regions of the I-V curves was possible using the continuous Troffimenkoff-type of field dependent mobility. Furthermore, a correction factor f was introduced to account for the finite transition section forming between a GCA and a saturated section. This factor removes large discrepancies in the saturation region of the I-V curve predicted by existing l-dimensional models.

In this paper, the performance of equalization-based on-channel repeater for terrestrial DMB is analyzed. A primary concern in on-channel repeater is the performance degradation due to the echo and one of key component for on-channel repeater is the echo canceller, which usually employs LMS algorithm utilizing the repeater output as a reference for echo channel estimation and compensation. One problem using LMS algorithm is the tracking capability and there necessarily exists residual echo that has not been cancelled. To effectivelyremove the residual echo, we consider an equalization based on-channel repeater where the echo-cancellor is followed by an equalizer that performs channel estimation using pilot symbol and the channel inversion utilizing homomorphic decomposition. According to the simulation result, the performance degradation caused by the residual echo can be considerably alleviated by using the equalizer following the echo-canceller.

In this paper, the efficient equalization method for OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiflexing) System using the QAM(Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) in multipath fading channel is proposed in order to faster and more efficiently equalize the received signals that are sent over real channel. In generally, the one-tap linear equalizers have been used in the frequency-domain as the existing equalization method for OFDM system. In this technique, if characteristics of the channel are changed fast, the one-tap linear equalizers cannot compensate for the distortion due to time variant multipath channels. Therefore, in this paper, we use one-tap non-linear equalizers instead of using one-tap linear equalizers in the frequency-domain, and also use the linear equalizer in the time-domain to compensate the rapid performance reduction at the low SNR(Signal-to-Noise Ratio) that is the disadvantage of the non-linear equalizer. In the frequency-domain, when QAM signals, consisting of in-phase components and quadrature (out-phase) components, are sent over the complex channel, the only in-phase and quadrature components of signals distorted by the multipath fading are changed the same as signals distorted by the noise. So the cross components are canceled in the frequency-domain equalizer. The time-domain equalizer and the adaptive algorithm that has lower-error probability and fast convergence speed are applied to compensate for the error that is caused by canceling the cross components in the frequency-domain equalizer. In the time-domain, To compensate for the performance of frequency-domain equalizer the time-domain equalizes the distorted signals at a frame by using the Gold-code as a training sequence in the receiver after the Gold-codes are inserted into the guard signal in the transmitter. By using the proposed equalization method, we can achieve faster and more efficient equalization method that has the reduced computational complexity and improved performance.
