This paper presents the propagation path loss in a tunnel which is a kinds of underground environments. To predict propagation path loss more accurately, we choose a straight tunnel with rectangular cross-section. The simulated receiver powers that are using a hybrid waveguide model and a Ray-Tracing method, are compared with the measured ones as a function of distance between TX and RX antennas in tunnel. The attenuation value of regression analysis for measured power in the tunnel is 0.0238dB/m which is similar to the one of the EH1.2 mode, 0.0246dB/m in hybrid waveguide model. By comparing simulation with measurement in tunnels, it has been shown that the measured values are approximate to the simulated results of ray-tracing model. In the analysis of wide-band channel characteristics of the tunnel, the more the distance between TX and RX antennas in tunnel increases, RMS delay spread increases and coherence bandwidth decreases.

A DS/CDMA system that makes all base stations require equal received power for all mobiles can lead to the non-uniform quality of service when mobiles are non-uniformly located over a service area. In order to resolve this problem the base-received power should be controlled according to base's load in order to make the quality of service uniform, and the pilot power also has to be adjusted to maintain the balance of cell coverage between reverse link and forward link. In this paper, we propose a generalized model including Pilot Power control, base-received power control on the reverse link, transmission power allocation on multiple forward link, and soft handoff on both links. We also apply our model to an initial system design as an example.

In wireless smart phone charging scenario, the transmitter pad is larger than the size of the receiver pad. Thus, it is important to supply a constant power to the receiver regardless of its location. In this paper, we propose a new method to regulate the receiver's power by adjusting a drain bias of class E power amplifier. The proposed LF-band wireless power transfer system is as follows: a buck converter power supply which is controlled by a pulse width modulation(PWM) IC TL494, a class E amplifier using a low cost IRF510 power MOSFET, a transmitter coil whose dimension is $16cm{\times}18cm$, a receiver coil whose dimension is $6cm{\times}8cm$, and a full bridge rectifier using Schottky diodes. A measured performance show a maximum output power of 4 W and system efficiency of 67 % if we fix the bias voltage. If we adjust the bias voltage, the received power can be maintained at a constant power of 2 W regardless of receiver pad location.

본 논문에서는 전력증폭기를 슬롯이 적재된 삼각형 마이크로스트립 패치 안테나와 동일 평면의 기판에 집적화하여 전력증폭기 출력단의 제 3 고조파 튜닝을 안테나가 수행함으로써 전력효율을 향상시키는 효과에 대해 고찰하였다. 또한 실제 집적화에 따른 송\ulcorner수신 신호의 분리 문제를 위해 이중공진 특성을 이용한 inset 마이크로스트립 급전과 coax 급전의 이중급전 방식을 사용하였고, 이에 따라 두 ports 사이에 높은 격리 특성을 갖도록 능동 집적 안테나를 설계하였다. 선형성을 증대시키기 위해 제 3 고조파 튜닝 효과를 갖도록 안테나에 슬롯을 적재시켜 제 3 고조파에서 방사를 억제 구조를 갖게 함으로써 고조파 튜닝회로를 축소시킨 능동 집적 안테나를 설계, 제작하여 측정한 결과, B급 전력증폭기와 안테나를 각각 제작하여 결합한 형태보다 약 5%의 전력 효율 개선 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 능동 집적 안테나의 큰 문제점이었던 송\ulcorner수신 분리에 대하여서도, IMT-2000 주파수 대역의 수신 port에서 송신 주파수의 신호를 -35dB 이하로 격리시키는 특성을 나타냄을 관찰할 수 있었다.

이 연구는 DVB-H 수신기의 전력소모를 줄이기 위한 새로운 동기방법을 제안하였다. DVB-H 시스템에서는 수신기의 전력소모글 줄이기 위하여 Time-Slicing 방법을 사용하는데 버스트 주기가 작을수록 수신기의 유효동작시간 이 줄어들게 되어 전력소모가 감소된다. 수신기의 유효동작시간에는 버스트를 동기화하기 위한 시간이 포함되므로 이 동기화시간을 줄이면 DVB-H 수신기의 전력소모를 줄일 수 있다. 제안방식은 한 프레임(68개 OFDM 심볼) 또는 연속된 5개의 OFDM 심볼을 이용하는 기존방식과 달리 이전 수신버스트의 OFDM 심볼 네 개 또는 송신기의 OFDM 심볼 네 개와 현재 수신되는 심볼 1개를 사용하기 때문에 동기시간을 1/68 또는 1/5 까지 줄일 수 있다. 제안방식의 강건성을 분석하기 위하여 다양한 이동수신 채널환경에서 최소보호비를 구하여 기존 방식과 비교 분석하였다.

We consider the joint optimization problem of transmit power level, MMSE receiver filter and access point(AP) selection for multi access points environment. In the previous work, transmit power and MMSE receiver filter were jointly optimized[1] and transmit power and best access point were optimized jointly[2]. For each case, the algorithm was proposed and its convergence which guarantees the minimum total transmit power was proved. In this paper, we further improve the algorithm by jointly optimizing three parameters. More specifically, 1) we propose the algorithm by considering transmit power, MMSE receiver filter and access point selection jointly. 2) we prove that the proposed algorithm guarantees convergence with minimum transmit power consumption. In the simulation results, it is shown that proposed algorithm outperforms two other algorithms, i.e., 1) algorithm with transmit power and MMSE receiver filter, and 2) algorithm with transmit power and best access point selection.

In this paper, we handle the estimation method of the received $E_{b}l1_{o}$ for forward closed-loop power control in cdma2000 systems. The estimation of MS-received $E_{b}l1_{o}$ utilizes the symbols related to the forward power control subchannel transmission. The estimation of the received bit energy and noise variance is analyzed for the frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel. In order to improve SIR (signal-to-interference), the estimation of the received bit energy is made by the coherent combining of the rake-fingers and received I/Q symbols. And, in this paper, we evaluate the performance of forward closed-loop power control according to the mobile speed and the power adjustment step size in terms of the bit error rate (BER) and power control error. Simulation results present the optimal power adjustment step sizes according to the mobile speeds.

In this paper, we propose a receive diversity method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with cochannel interference. In the method, combining is done in the frequency domain by using the subcarrier based maximum ratio combining (MRC) method. For MRC, we exploit the power of cochannel interference as well as the power of channel noise. The accuracy of the power estimate of interference plus noise is enhanced by averaging the initial estimates over the correlated subchannels where the coherency between the subchannel gains comes from the limited delay spread of the channel. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields 2-3.5dB gain of signal to noise ratio compared to the conventional MRC method and less than 1 dB difference to the ideal case.

In this paper, bit error rate (BER) characteristics, sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing that consisted of 1,200 km WDM systems with MSSI method. It is conformed that the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are gradually degraded as amplifier spacings are gradually expanded, but those are not largely affected by modulation format. The sensitivity of RZ transmission system is smaller than that of NRZ transmission system, but minimum allowable launching power of NRZ transmission system is smaller than that of RZ transmission system. And, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is less than 50 km, because the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are less affected by fiber dispersion, channel wavelength and pump light power.
