This paper proposes the Handover Scheme for the mobile and describes the result of the performance analysis. In the conventional scheme of handover request, the withdrawal of terminal may occur because handover request is performed based on fixed signal level without considering network load and terminal mobility. The proposed scheme offers the minimization of withdrawal and handover blocking probability by means of the handover request of terminal based on the network load and terminal mobility. Conventional handover scheme has the sequential procedure that network performs resource check and path rerouting on the handover by MT(Mobile Terminal). Proposed handover scheme pre-processes the resource check before the handover request by predicting the handover request timo so that handover latency can be reduced. Moreover, path optimization is executed after the completion of handover in order to reduce handover latency. The rdduction of handover latency prevents the dropping of service by minimizing backward handover blocking. In summary, we propose the prediction of handover request time and decision method based on terminal, validating the performance of proposed scheme considering various cases of simulation.

In order to provide high-speed wide-band multimedia services via Low earth(LEO) mobile satellire, power and bandwidth efficient digital transmission technique should to employed. This paper analyzes the performance of Trellis-soded 16QAM and 8PSK-2AM which can transmit twice as much inforemation as QPSK in nonlinearly amplified LEO mobile satellite channel. In the analysis the nonlinear mobile satellite channel is modelled by Rician fading channel amplified by Fujitsu's GaAs FET HPA. Our simulation result shows that 8PSK-2AM is less sensitive to the satellite channel nonlinear distortion and its BER performance is better than that of 16QAM. The BER performance of 8PSK-2AM is further improved by optimizing its signal constellation. Accocordingly it is found that Trellis-coded 8PSK-2AM could provide multimedia services such as Satellite Internet, DBS, DAB and ISDB more efficiently in the power and bandwidth limited mobile satellite channel.

Recently, cellular communication networks are migrating from 2G to 3G. Spectrum utilization tends to be inefficient during the transition. Cognitive radio (CR) technology can be a key solution to increase spectrum efficiency by allowing secondary networks to utilize frequency resource of primary networks. However, conventional CR approaches which do not utilize the frequency reuse factor of primary networks may incur degradation of whole network performance. In this paper, we propose a mechanism that a secondary network senses pilot signals of a primary network and select optimum frequency bands. In order to maximize whole network performance, we formulate an optimization problem subject to interference constraints for a primary network and present algorithms. Simulation results compare the proposed method with the conventional method. Our proposed method shows performance gain over the conventional method if channel variation of a primary network is dynamic and the frequency reuse factor of a primary network is high.

PID 제어는 50년의 역사를 갖기 때문에 현장의 사용자는 이 제어방식에 익숙해져 있으며, 제어장치의 구성이 간단하며 제어기의 최적동조가 가능하므로 많은 분야에서 사용되고 있다[1]. 그러나 PID 제어기에 의해서 얻은 결과에 대하여 만족하기 위해서는 많은 시행착오를 겪어야 한다. 또한 만족하는 결과를 얻었다고 할지라도 외란, 플랜트의 동특성이 바뀌는 경우 시스템을 추종하지 못하기 때문에 파라미터를 재조정하여야 한다. 유전 알고리즘은 자연세계의 진화 현상에 기초한 계산모델로서 John Holland에 의해서 1975년에 개발된 전역적인 최적화 알고리즘이며[1][2], 비선형 고차원, 불연속, 다중모드, 노이즈 함수 등에 대하여 강건함을 보여주고, 복잡한 탐색 공간에서 최적 값을 스스로 발견하는 학습 능력을 갖는다. 이 방법은 재생산, 교배, 돌연변이를 통하여 최적해를 찾은 방법으로 1989년에 D. E. Goldgerg에 의해서 체계적으로 정리된 후 여러 분야에서 응용되고 있다[3][4]. 그러나 유전 알고리즘은 목적함수만을 이용하여 해집단을 탐색하기 때문에 숙련운전자가 원하는 제어 특성 명세인 상승시간, 정착시간, 초과량(oveshoot) 둥을 구체적으로 명시하여 제어에 반영할 수 없다. 또한, 유전 알고리즘은 입력 값이 크게 바뀔 경우 다른 시스템으로 인식하여 새로운 탐색을 수행하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 첫째, 기준모델을 도입하여 플랜트의 성능을 기준모델로 표현하여 플랜트가 요구하는 성능지표를 정량적으로 규정하는 것이 가능하였다. 또한, 이것은 미지 플랜트 동특성을 식별하기 위한 신호로 사용되어, 플랜트의 정보를 얻는데 이용되었다. 즉, 기준모델과 플랜트 출력사이의 추종 오차 정보가 적응기구인 PID 유전제어기의 입력으로 사용되며, 구형파 입력의 경우에도 기준모델과 플랜트의 출력차는 크게 변하지 않는다. 따라서, 유전 알고리즘의 목적함수에 기준 모델을 제안 적용하여 안정적이고, 세밀한 제어를 수행하였다. 둘째, PID의 간단하면서 확실한 제어가 가능하다는 점과 전역적인 최적값을 찾을 수 있는 유전 알고리즘을 적용하여 고속제어를 요하는 직류 서보 모터(DC Servo Motor) 운전 시 실시간 파라미터 동조에 적용하였다.

A multi-band low noise amplifier (LNA) is designed in 90 nm RF CMOS process for 3GPP LTE (3rd Generation Partner Project Long Term Evolution) applications. The designed multi-band LNA covers the eight frequency bands between 1.85 and 2.8 GHz. A tunable input matching circuit is realized by adopting a switched capacitor array at the LNA input stage for providing optimum performances across the wide operating band. Current steering technique is adopted for the gain control in three steps. The performances of the LNA are verified through post-layout simulations (PLS). The LNA consumes 17 mA at 1.2 V supply voltage. It shows a power gain of 26 at the normal gain mode, and provides much lower gains of 0 and -6.7 in the bypass-I and -II modes, respectively. It achieves a noise figure of 1.78 dB and a IIP3 of -12.8 dBm over the entire band.

A high data rate Medical Implant Communications Service (MICS) transmitter for implantable medical devices (IMD) is proposed. An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based multicarrier scheme is used to overcome the data rate limitation caused by the narrow bandwidth of 300 kHz. The proposed transmitter utilizes multiple MICS channels simultaneously, supporting increased data rate. To satisfy the MICS regulation, various schemes are applied including optimized subcarrier allocation and inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) architecture, and additional sidelobe suppression technique. Simulation results show that the proposed transmitter can support a maximum data rate of 4.86 Mbps, which is more than ten times faster than the previous systems.

This paper reconsiders established power conservation models for ubiquitous sensor networks that use relay nodes instead of direct communication and proposes novel network power consumption model with consideration of the channel level and radio chip level simultaneously. We estimate the effect of minimum hop-count policy in terms of network power consumption through simulation of various situations for low power RF module CC2420. It is observed that maximum RF power and minimum hop-count results in lower energy consumption relatively. Also, in total network energy consumption, which is included re-transmission, minimum hop count policy presents decrease by 33.1% of energy consumption in compare with the conventional model.

In this paper, the performances of the presented D2D (device-to-device) systems under the environment of the cognitive convergent overlay networks are evaluated based upon the locations of the D2D users' terminals, the power consumptions of the terminals and the reductions of the interference levels. As the capabilities of the users' terminals improve, the optimization of the system is crucial to the efficient utilization of the radio resources of the individual networks considering their mobility and the features of their networks. Users' mobility model is given for the performance evaluation of the D2D system. In this paper, the performances of the D2D systems are evaluated in terms of the performance index of the FER (frame error rate) employing multiantenna techniques (MIMO:multiple input multiple output) for the various network environments.

This paper describes a design of an adaptive baseband modem based on TDMA(time division multiple access) with a relay protocol function for wireless personal area networks. The designed baseband modem is controlled by a master synchronization signal and can be configured a relay network up to 14 hops. For efficient data relay communications, the internal buffer design is optimized by implementing a priority memory bus controller to a single port memory. And the priority memory bus controller is also designed to minimize the number of synthesized logic gates. To implement the synchronization function of the narrowband TDMA relay communication, the number of gates has been reduced by dividing the frame synchronization circuits and the network slot synchronization circuits. By using these methods, the number of gates are used about 37%(34,000 gates) on Xilinx FPGA XC6SLX9 which has 90,000 gates. For the 1024-bit frame size with a 32-bit synchronization word, the communication reception rate is 96.4%. The measured maximum transmission delay of the designed baseband modem is 230.4 msec for the 14-hop relay communication.
