As multimedia applications become popular, computers increasingly require high-speed DSP for 3-DIM computer graphic. In this Paper, a Macro-cell Library of conditional select adder/subtracter is proposed for DSP within high speed and low power consumption. Using, this design method, we are able to obtain an auto generation of the adder or(and) subtracter from 8-bit to 64-bit. The proposed adder/subtracter has been fabricated with a 0.25${\mu}m$, single-poly, five-metal, N-well CMOS technology. From the experimental results, delay time is 3.43ns, and the power consumption is 42.8${\mu}w$/MHz at the input frequency of 50MHz, at 2.5V single power supply, in case of the 32-bit adder/subtracter.

This paper proposes a high-precision ranging scheme based on channel estimation technique and multipath delay analysis in IR-UWB systems. When the IR-UWB signal is transmitted and received, the high-precision ranging is estimated with the time-of-arrival information of the signal. In the proposed scheme, the channel estimation process with the minimum mean square error technique or zero forcing technique is performed and the overlapped multipath within the pulse is analyzed with matrix pencil (MP) algorithm to achieve the ranging accuracy of centimeters. The performance of proposed scheme is evaluated with various IEEE 802.15.4a channel models and the relationship between the ranging performance and the computational complexity is analyzed in terms of the MP parameter values.

Sound source localization systems in service robot applications estimate the direction of a human voice. Time delay information obtained from a few separate microphones is widely used for the estimation of the sound direction. Correlation is computed in order to calculate the time delay between two signals. Inverse cosine is used when the position of the maximum correlation value is converted to an angle. Because of nonlinear characteristic of inverse cosine, the accuracy of the computed angle is varied depending on the position of the specific sound source. In this paper, we propose an efficient sound source localization system using angle division. By the proposed approach, the region from $0^{\circ}$ to $180^{\circ}$ is divided into three regions and we consider only one of the three regions. Thus considerable amount of computation time is saved. Also, the accuracy of the computed angle is improved since the selected region corresponds to the linear part of the inverse cosine function. By simulations, it is shown that the error of the proposed algorithm is only 31% of that of the conventional a roach.

While the multimedia lecture system has been getting smart using immerging technology, the microphone still relies on the classical approach such as holding in hand or attaching on the body. In this paper, we propose a ceiling mounted array microphone system that allows a wide reception coverage and instructors to move freely without attaching microphone. The proposed system adopts cell and handover of mobile communication instead of a complicated beamforming method and implements a wide range microphone over several cells with low cost. Since the characteristics of unvoiced speech is similar to Pseudo Noise it is shown that soft handover are possible with 3 microphones connected to delay-sum multipath receiver. The proposed system is tested in $6.3{\times}1.5m$ area. For real-time processing the correlation range can be reduced by 82% or more, and the output latency delay can be improved by using the delay adaptive filter.

Finite field multipliers are the basic building blocks in many applications such as error-control coding, cryptography and digital signal processing. Hence, the design of efficient dedicated finite field multiplier architectures can lead to dramatic improvement on the overall system performance. In this paper, a new bit serial structure for a multiplier with low latency in Galois field is presented. To speed up multiplication processing, we divide the product polynomial into several parts and then process them in parallel. The proposed multiplier operates standard basis of $GF(2^m)$ and is faster than bit serial ones but with lower area complexity than bit parallel ones. The most significant feature of the proposed architecture is that a trade-off between hardware complexity and delay time can be achieved.

The rise of 5G and the proliferation of smart devices have underscored the significance of multi-access edge computing (MEC). Amidst this trend, interest in effectively processing computation-intensive and latency-sensitive applications has increased. This study investigated a novel task offloading strategy considering the probabilistic MEC environment to address these challenges. Initially, we considered the frequency of dynamic task requests and the unstable conditions of wireless channels to propose a method for minimizing vehicle power consumption and latency. Subsequently, our research delved into a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based offloading technique, offering a way to achieve equilibrium between local computation and offloading transmission power. We analyzed the power consumption and queuing latency of vehicles using the deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) and deep Q-network (DQN) techniques. Finally, we derived and validated the optimal performance enhancement strategy in a vehicle based MEC environment.

이동 컴퓨팅 환경에서 이동 호스트는 무선망을 통해 서버와 연결된 후에서야 데이터를 획득 및 처리할 수 있다. 그러나, 이동 호스트는 낮은 대역폭과 이로 인한 지연, 네트워크 단절(disconnection)과 같은 무선망의 특성으로 인하여 사용상에 많은 불편함과 비효율성이 발생하고 있는 실정이다. 특히, 이동 호스트가 네트워크 단절로 인해 서버에 접근이 불가능하고 작업에 필요한 데이터가 캐쉬에 없을 경우에는 작업 처리가 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 이동 호스트가 미래에 작업할 데이터를 미리 인출해서 캐쉬에 저장하는 선인출 메카니즘을 제안하였다. 본 논문의 선인출 메카니즘을 기록기, 분석기, 선인출 목록 생성기, 그리고 비교기로 구성된다. 기록기와 분석기는 이동 호스트의 파일 참조 패턴들을 기반으로 프로파일을 생성하며, 선인출로 인한 성능 감소를 최소화하기 위해 선인출과 캐쉬 교체 전략을 통합한 선인출 메카니즘을 제시하였다.

When a high performance current control is desired, a computation time delay of a digital control system may deteriorate the control performance of a current controller. Such a non-negligible effect can be considerable in transient state. This paper deals with the modified predictive current control that compensates the time delay effects of a conventional predictive current control. The method is closely related to a local average current control and a symmetrical PWM pattern generation. Also some theoretical approaches are presented to describe the voltage saturation boundary of the power converter. For validation, the proposed method is applied to an active power filter system. The experimental results show considerable improvement in current tracking capability.

드론에서 고도유지 비행을 위해 정확한 고도 측정이 필요하다. 고도 측정을 위해 많이 사용되는 가속도센서는 변화에 민감하여 거리 측정에 적합하지만 적분 오차가 누적되어 거리 측정값이 발산한다. 또한 드론 비행 시 드론에서 발생하는 진동을 드론의 고도 변화로 잘못 인지하는 문제가 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 상용화된 드론이나 기존 연구들은 가속도센서를 기반으로 다른 센서나 장치를 추가하여 고도 측정을 하지만 실제 비행 시 고도의 오차가 나타난다. 또한 센서 값들의 연산처리가 많아져 고도 측정 속도가 지연될 우려가 있다. 따라서 다른 센서나 장치를 추가하지 않고 드론의 특성을 고려한 보다 정확한 고도 측정 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 가속도센서를 이용하여 드론 비행 특성을 고려하는 고도 측정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험으로 제안 알고리즘을 수행하여 드론 비행 시 고도 측정의 정확성이 향상됨을 보인다.
