In this paper, we propose a signal structure and its optimum receiver to improve performance of SC-FDE(Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization) system. Conventional SC-FDE systems have a drawback of power unbalance in frequency domain due to generation of pilot signals in time domain. The unbalanced power in frequency domain induces a channel estimation error and the performance of the receiver is degraded significantly. To overcome the drawback we apply CAZAC sequence which has constant power distribution in time and frequency domain. We design the signal structure to improve the performance with the repeated CAZAC sequence, and we design a receiver to optimize the proposed structure. Computer simulation results show that the proposed structure is superior to the conventional structure considering frame synchronization, frequency synchronization and channel equalization on typical wireless mobile channel environment.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of pilot symbol assisted channel estimation and equalization schemes for OFDM systems over frequency-selective time-varying channels and propose methods to improve the system performance. In the least square(LS) and linear minimum mean square error(MMSE) channel estimation, time domain windowing is introduced for banding the frequency domain channel matrix. The linear MMSE and decision feedback equalization schemes are employed with the pilot symbols for channel estimation taken into account in the equalization process. To reduce computational complexity, the band LU matrix factorization algorithm is introduced in solving the linear systems involved in the equalization, and the performances are compared with the known previous results by computer simulations. When time domain windowing is employed in the decision feedback equalization, the matrix related with the decision feedback process is shown to be unhanded and the resultant performance degradation is analyzed.

As recent information communication technology is rapidly developed, a lot of researches related to speech signal processing have been processed. So pitch period is applied as important factor to many application fields such as speech recognition, speaker identification, speech analysis and synthesis. Therefore, many algorithms related to pitch detection have been proposed in time domain and frequency domain and AMDF(average magnitude difference function) which is one of pitch detection algorithms in time domain chooses time interval from valley to valley as pitch period. But, in selection of valley point to detect pitch period, complexity of the algorithm is increased. So in this paper we proposed pitch detection algorithm using rotation transform of AMDF, that taking the global minimum valley point as pitch period and established a threshold about the phoneme in beginning portion, to exclude pitch period selection. and compared existing methods with proposed method through simulation.

Although conventional OFDM/QAM modulation scheme using guard interval is robust to channel induced ISI (Inter-Symbol Interference) in time-domain, it is very sensitive to ICI (Inter-Carrier Interference) due to doppler effect in frequency domain. OFDM/OQAM-IOTA modulation scheme utilizes IOTA (Isotropic Orthogonal Transform Algorithm) filter that has orthogonality in time and frequency domain so that it is robust to delay spread and doppler effect. OFDM/OQAM-IOTA system can increase bandwidth effeciency since it does not use guard interval. In this paper, we show the structure of OFDM/OQAM-IOTA and perfect channel estimation scheme for OFDM/OQAM-IOTA system. We also compare OFDM/OQAM-IOTA system and OFDM/QAM system in AWGN and 1-path Rayleigh fading channel. Simulation results show that OFDM/OQAM system outperforms OFDM/QAM system.

The mirror neuron system in the cerebrum, which are handled by visual information-based imitative learning. When we observe the observer's range of mirror neuron system, we can assume intention of performance through progress of neural activation as specific range, in include of partially hidden range. It is goal of our paper that imitative learning is applied to 3D vision-based intelligent system. We have experiment as stereo camera-based restoration about acquired 3D image our previous research Using Optical flow, unscented Kalman filter. At this point, 3D input image is sequential continuous image as including of partially hidden range. We used Hidden Markov Model to perform the intention recognition about performance as result of restoration-based hidden range. The dynamic inference function about sequential input data have compatible properties such as hand gesture recognition include of hidden range. In this paper, for proposed intention recognition, we already had a simulation about object outline and feature extraction in the previous research, we generated temporal continuous feature vector about feature extraction and when we apply to Hidden Markov Model, make a result of simulation about hand gesture classification according to intention pattern. We got the result of hand gesture classification as value of posterior probability, and proved the accuracy outstandingness through the result.

For the drone that is active in a wide search area, the time to grasp the target in the field of applications such as searching for emergency patients, monitoring of natural disasters requiring prompt warning and response, that is, the speediness of target detection is very important. In the actual operation of drone, the time for target detection is highly related to collaboration between drones and search algorithm to efficiently search the navigation area. In this research, we will provide a search method with cooperation of drone based on target existence probability to solve the problem of quickness in drone target search. In particular, the proposed method increases the probability of finding a target and shorten the search time by transmitting high-altitude drone search results to a low-altitude drone after searching first and performing more precise search. We verify the performance of the proposed method through several simulations.

This paper describes the design and performance of a secure routing protocol with time-space cryptography for mobile ad-hoc networks. The proposed time-space scheme works in the time domain for key distribution between source and destination as well as in the space domain for intrusion detection along the route between them. For data authentication, it relies on the symmetric key cryptography due to high efficiency and a secret key is distributed using a time difference from the source to the destination. Also, a one-way hash chain is formed on a hop-by-hop basis to prevent a compromised node or an intruder from manipulating the routing information. In order to evaluate the performance of our routing protocol, we compare it with the existing AODV protocol by simulation under the same conditions. The proposed protocol has been validated using the ns-2 network simulator with wireless and mobility extensions.

In VARTM process where a sacrificial medium is used to facilitate the resin flow, the velocity of resin varies drastically between the sacrificial medium and the fiber preform. Although the thickness-to-length ratio of a VARTM product is usually small, a 3-D analysis is prerequisite to analyze the lead-lag flow in the two different media. The problem associated with the full 3-D analysis is the CPU time. A full 3-D numerical mesh comprising large number of nodes requires an impractical CPU time on average computer platforms. In this study, a dual-scale analysis technique was developed. The flow analysis for the entire calculation domain was conducted in 2.5-D, and the 3-D analysis was performed for a small area of special concern. In some numerical examples, the local 3-D analysis could discover an eccentric flow pattern as well as the lead-lag flow that will inevitably be neglected in 2.5-D simulations. The global-local analysis technique practiced in this study can be used to analyze the intricate flow of resin through non-uniform media in affordable CPU times.

In this paper, an OFDM-CDMA broadband system is considered for a possible candidate of fixed wireless broadband access network applications. With an emphasis on a preamble design for multi-channel separation, we address a channel estimation based on the time-domain windowing and its imperfectness in OFDM-based multiple-antenna transmission systems. By properly designing each preamble for multiple antennas to be orthogonal in the time domain, the channel estimation can be applied to the ETSI HlPERLAN/2 and IEEE-802.11a standards in the case of more than two transmit antennas. Also, an effect of diversity techniques on the performance of OFDM-CDMA based broadband wireless access networks is investigated and the maximum achievable diversity gain for a two-path Rayleigh fading environment is evaluated Simulation results show that the OFDM-CDMA system applying a space-time-frequency diversity with a full-rate full diversity code can give the diversity of D = 4 and D = 8 for both multi-user cases of maximum user and half user capacities, respectively.

Sample timing offset (STO) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) are caused by inter-symbol interference (ISI), inter-carrier interference (ICI) and phase error in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. OFDM characteristic is sensitive about STO and CFO. So when ICI occurs, compensation is hard and complex equalizer is needed. In this paper, we propose an effective correction method using feedback process with pilot and synchronization symbol. After feedback with estimated value in frequency domain, STO and CFO are corrected by control sample & and holder and oscillator. As a result of simulation, we confirm that STO and CFO can be corrected without equalizer through feedback.
