In this paper, we propose a bit synchronizer which is suitable for frequency hopping systems. The proposed bit synchronizer is an ADPLL in which the digital loop filter is combined with an error symbol detecting circuit. Suppressing the tracking process, when hop mute and impulse noises are detected, improves the performance of the digital loop filter and enhances the probability of the frequency hopping system. Simulation results demonstrate an improved performance of the proposed bit synchronizer compared with existing ones.

In this paper, we propose a bit synchronizer which is suitable for frequency hopping systems. The proposed bit synchronizer is an ADPLL in which the digial loop filter is combined with an error symbol detecting circuit using an adaptive window. Suppressing the tracking process when hop mute and impulse noises are detected improves the performance of the digital loop filter and enhances the probability of the frequency hopping system. The simulation results demonstrate an improved performance of the proposed bit synchronizer compared with existing ones.

We propose a correction method of nonlinear frequency sweep in an FMCW(Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) laser range finder. FMCW laser range finder requires linear frequency sweep for high resolution, and nonlinear frequency sweep makes the system performance degrade. In general, VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator) which is a component used for frequency modulation in FMCW method has nonlinear property. To correct the nonlinear frequency sweep, we utilize an auxiliary delay structure for generating trigger signal of ADC(Analog to Digital Converter). Because the trigger signal has same rate of change with the beat signal, the nonlinearity of the beat signal can be corrected. the experimental results show that the proposed method effectively eliminates the nonlinear frequency sweep problem and enhances the system performance.

In this paper, new lossless coding method of spectral coefficients for audio codec is proposed. Conventional lossless coder uses Huffman coding utilizing the statistical characteristics of spectral coefficients, but does not provide the high coding efficiency due to its simple structure. To solve this limitation, new lossless coding scheme with better performance is proposed that consists of bit-plane transform and run-length coding. In the proposed scheme, the spectral coefficients are first transformed by bit-plane into 1-D bit-stream with better correlative properties, which is then coded intorun-length and is finally Huffman coded. In addition, the coding performance is further increased by applying the proposed bit-plane coding selectively to each group, after the entire frequency is divided into 3 groups. The performance of proposed coding scheme is measured in terms of theoretical number of bits based on the entropy, and shows at most 6% enhancement compared to that of conventional lossless coder used in AAC audio codec.

This paper evaluates the BER performance of MC-DS-CDMA systems in frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, considering the carrier frequency offset and the nonlinear high power amplifier. In the uplink MC-DS-CDMA, the BER performance is better than in the downlink. This paper presents the required output back-off of the nonlinear amplifier and value of frequency offset for good BER performance.

A water level measurement radar estimates beat frequencies to extract the corresponding water level information for water resource management. Therefore, it is required to maintain the high degree of reliability and accuracy in beat frequency estimates. However, Beat spectra of water surface return echoes can have very widely varying shapes according to system frequency linearity, measurement environments and weather conditions. Therefore, serious problems may arise in maintaining the reliability and accuracy of the conventional level estimation method. Therefore, in this paper, high resolution spectrum estimates are analyzed for improvement of the conventional method. These methods show that the more accurate level measurement can be possible on the condition that SNR is higher than a certain required threshold. However, if SNR is too low, the conventional method shows that estimates are more reliable than the suggested method though absolute errors are too large.

A new design of a Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer(DDFS) is presented, where a pipelined Coordinate Rotate Digital Computer(CORDIC) circuit is employed to calculate amplitude values of all the phase angles of sinusoidal waveforms produced. a near-optimal number of pipeline stages is determined based on an error analysis of calculated amplitude values in terms of the number of bits. The DDFS was implemented using a field programmable gate array, yielding a stable operating frequency of 11.75MHz. The measurement results show higher resolution, faster operating speed and simpler fabrication process, compared to ROM-based counterparts. The CORDIC-based DDFS yields 5 times higher resolution than conventional ROM-based versions.

본 논문에서는 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 전송방식(OFDM:Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)에서 비트 오류율(BER)과 시스템에서 사용할 수 있는 총 송신 파워가 제한된 상태에서 데이터 전송률을 최대화 시키는 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 미리 계산된 비트수별 신호대잡음비 임계값(threshold)과 부반송파의 신호대잡음비를 비교한 후 부반송파별 송신 파워를 최적화 시켜 비트를 할당한다. 이 기법은 송신 파워 및 비트를 할당하는 최적의 기법이라고 알려진 Hughes­Hartogs 기법과 거의 동일한 데이터 전송률을 가질 수 있으면서, 부반송파의 송신 파워 및 비트수를 할당하기 위해 필요한 반복작업을 줄일 수 있다.
