Since Ultra-Short BaseLine (USBL) uses an array with narrow sensor spacing, precise synchronization is required to improve source localization performances. However, in the underwater environment, synchronization errors occur due to relatively strong noise and underwater acoustic channels such as multipath and Doppler, which deteriorates the source localization performances. This paper proposes a covariance-based synchronization compensation method to improve the source localization performances of the underwater USBL systems. The proposed method arranges the received signals through cross-correlation and calculates the covariance of the arranged signals. The synchronization error is related to the phase difference in the covariance. Thus, the phase difference is estimated as the covariance and compensated. Computer simulations demonstrate that the proposed method has better source localization performances than the conventional cross-correlation method.

Recently, the demand of broadband communications such as high-speed internet, HDTV, 3D-HDTV and ATM backbone network has been increased drastically. For transmitting the broad-bandwidth data using wireless network, it is needed to use ka-band frequency. However, the use of this ka-band frequency is seriously affected to the received data performance by rain fading and atmospheric propagation loss at the Ka-band satellite communication link. So, we need adaptive MODEM to endure the degraded performance by channel environment. In this paper, we will present the structure and design of the 155Mbps adaptive Modem adaptively compensated against channel environment. In order to compensate the rain attenuation over the ka-band wireless channel link, the adaptive coding schemes with variable coding rates and the multiple modulation schemes such as trellis coded 8-PSK, QPSK, and BPSK are adopted. And the blind demodulation scheme is proposed to demodulate without Information of modulation mode at the multi-mode demodulator, and the fast phase ambiguity resolving scheme is proposed. The design and simulation results of adaptive Modem by SPW model are provided. This 155Mbps adaptive MODEM was designed and implemented by single ASIC chip with the $0.25\mu{m}$ CMOS standard cell technology and 950 thousand gates.

In Distributed Video Coding(DVC), a low complexity encoder can be realized by shifting complex processes of encoder such as motion estimation to decoder. Since not only motion estimation/compensation processes but also channel decoding process needs to be performed at DVC decoder, the complexity of a decoder is significantly increased in consequence. Therefore, various fast channel decoding methods are proposed for the most computationally complex part, which is the channel decoding process in DVC decoding. As the channel decoding process becomes faster using various methods, however, the complexity of the other processes are relatively highlighted. For instance, the complexity of side information generation process in the DVC decoder is relatively increased. In this paper, therefore, a fast method for the DVC decoding is proposed by using adaptive search range method in side information generation process. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves time saving of about 63% in side information generation process, while its rate distortion performance is degraded only by about 0.17% in BDBR.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive DFE (Decision Feedback Equalizer) based on LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) code for phase noise suppression and performance improvement. The proposed equalizer in this paper is applied for wireless repeater system. So as to meet ever increasing requirements on higher wireless access data rate and better quality of service (QoS), the wireless repeater system has been studied. The echo channel and RF impairments such as phase noise produce performance degradation. In order to remove echo channel and phase noise, we suggest a novel adaptive DFE equalizer based on LDPC code. The proposed equalizer helps to compensate RF impairments and improve the performance significantly better than used independently. In addition, proposed equalizer has less iteration number of LDPC code. So, the proposed equalizer system has low complexity.

In non-geostationary orbit(NGSO) satellite communication links, satellite's elevation angle at terminal is changed continuously because of the satellite movement relative to earth surface. Therefore the characteristics of the fade-effected signal received by a terminal from a NGSO satellite is also varied continuously even if the terminal is operated at fixed location. In this paper, we determine a general statistic model for the fading characteristics over NGSO satellite communication links and set up the parameters of the fading model in terms of the elevation angle according to various propagation environment and find the parameter values using the data of fading margin for commercial NGSO mobile satellite communication systems. And the fading charateristics for each environment are analyzed using this model. These results can be applied to develop the compensation algorithm and to analyze the performance of the transmission schemes for NGSO mobile satellite communication systems.

This paper describes measurement of an on-ship power supply noise in mixed-signal integrated circuits. To measure the on-chip power supply noise, we can check the effects of analog circuits and compensate it. This circuit consists of two independent measurement channels, each consisting of a sample and hold circuit and a frequency to digital converter which has a buffer and voltage controlled oscillator(VCO). The time-based voltage information and frequency-based power spectrum density(PSD) can be achieved by a simple analog to digital conversion scheme. The buffer works like a unit-gain buffer with a wide bandwidth and VCO has a high gain to improve resolution. This circuit was fabricated in a 0.18um CMOS technology and has 2.06mV/count. The noise measurement circuit consumes 15mW and occupies $0.768mm^2$.

While on the other, VSC7123 is satisfied with IEEE802.3ah recommendations.

In this paper, we design the nonoverlapping multicarrier modulation (MCM) system for high rate paging system and evaluate the Performance by computer simulation. In conventional paging system, FSK was usually used, but we select QAM for high bandwidth efficiency. Transmitter structure adopts that of 4-16QAM of the iDEN$\^$TM/ and receiver consists of symbol timing recovery, carrier recovery and automatic gain control. In addition, pilot symbol aided modulation (PSAM) which can overcome the simulcast fading channel is considered and we also propose the optimum pilot symbol pattern. Finally, we show the performance of the overall 4-16QAM system by computer simulation.

In this paper we describe our investigation en ATM CLR(Cell Loss Rate) in the wireless ATM Networks, which consist of wireless access nodes and wireless links. A wireless access node is modelled as the ND/D/1queue. A wireless channel is modelled as channel with single and burst error characteristics, and it can be seen that the CLR degrades on a link with burst errors than on a link with single error. Because wireless channel can be approximated as the Rayleigh or Rician fading channel and wireless communication systems are power limited, it is customary that the CLR degrades on a link with burst errors than on a link with single error. So error control method should be used to improve performance degradation caused by burst errors. We consider the forward error correction(FEC) as error control scheme for CBR traffics to improve performance degradation caused by burst errors, and analyze performance of concatenated FEC scheme through the use of CLR.

The numerical methods of finding out the optimal position of optical phase conjugator (OPC) and the optimal fiber dispersions are prosed, which are able to effectively compensate overall channels in $8{\times}40Gbps$Gbps WDM system with non zero - dispersion shifted fiber (NZ-DSF) as an optical fiber. And BER characteristics in the system with two induced optimal parameters are compared with those in the system with the currently used mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) in order to confirm the availability of the proposed methods. It is confirmed that the applying two induced optimal parameters into WDM system contribute to reduce power penalty to 4 times than that of WDM system with the conventional MSSI. Thus, the methods proposed in this research will be expected to alternate with the method of making a symmetrical distribution of power and local dispersion in real optical link which generates a serious problem if it was not made but it is the condition in the case of applying the OPC into multi-channels WDM system.
