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.

The capability of accurate positioning and tracking is necessary to implement an unmanned autonomous driving system. The moving-baseline GPS Technique is a promising candidate to mitigate positioning errors of conventional GPS system. It provides accurate positioning data based on the phase difference between received signals from multiple GPS antennas mounted on the same platform. In this paper, we propose a dual-band dual-circularly-polarized antenna suitable for the moving-baseline GPS. The proposed antenna operates at GPS L1 and L2 bands, and fed by the side of the antenna instead of the bottom. The antenna is firstly designed by calculating theoretical values of key parameters, and then optimized by means of 3D full-wave simulation software. Simulation and measurement results show that the optimized antenna offers 6.1% and 3.7% bandwidth at L1 and L2, respectively, with axial ratio bandwidth of more than 1%. The size of the antenna is $73mm{\times}73mm{\times}6.4mm$, which is small and low-profile.

The development of direct receiver techniques is expected to be a solution for future wideband or multi-band wireless systems based on software defined radio. In this Paper, we study the regeneration of I and Q signals for the SDR based direct conversion receiver, so that we can handle a wide bandwidth and maintain maximal flexibility in system utilization. After modeling the basic system considering the real wireless communication environment, and studying the impact of imperfect phase imbalance on the performance of a direct conversion receiver, we propose a suboptimal I and Q signal regeneration algorithm for the system. The proposed algerian regenerates I and Q signals using a real time early-late compensator which effectively estimates phase imbalances and gives feedback in a directreceiver. The proposed algorithm is shown to mitigate the impact of AWGN and improves performance especially at low SNR channel condition. According to the computer simulation, the BER performance of the proposed system is at least about 4 dB better than conventional systems under $45{\~}55$ degrees random phase errors.

This paper describes the azimuth accuracy test of phase comparison direction finding method using F-16 fighter scale-down model. When the antennas are placed on the bottom of a fighter, reflection signals caused by an aircraft structure arises and an azimuth error occurs. In this research, the F-16 fighter scale-down model was made to 5:1, and five antennas were placed on the bottom of the model, then the radio waves of emitters were received by the antennas in the $0-360^{\circ}$ azimuth angles. The accuracy test was performed by numerically analyzing the phases of the radio waves received by the five antennas. The azimuth error of the phase comparison direction finding with scale-down model was measured to be less than $0.5^{\circ}$ when the signal noise ratio was larger then 0dB, and it could be very useful for the design of the phase comparison direction finding method of the fighter.

In this paper, we show the memory effect of the high-power amplifiers for wied-band signals, present a compensation method for the nonlinearity combined with memory effect, and analyze its performance. For the modeling and the compensation of the nonlinear high-power amplifier with memory effect, we investigate the Volterra series model, the Wiener model, and the Hammerstein model. As a compensator scheme, we propose a digital feedforward technique. Compared to analog feed-forward scheme, the proposed scheme has better stability and adaptability to the environmental changes. It has a simpler structure than the conventional digital nonlinear compensation schemes. The result of computer simulations using ADS of the Agilent shows that spectral re-growth is suppressed by more than 20 dB, which amounts to at least 10 dB back-off. Considering the compensation performance, implementation complexity, and convergence rate, we could conclude the Wiener model is most suitable for the proposed scheme.

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics are widely used in the application of high-temperature structural devices due to their light weight as well as superior hardness, fracture toughness, and temperature stability. In this paper, we employed classical molecular dynamics simulations using Tersoff's potential to investigate the elastic constants of the SiC crystal at high temperature. The stress-strain characteristics of the SiC crystal were calculated with the LAMMPS software and the elastic constants of the SiC crystal were analyzed. Based on the stress-strain analysis, the SiC crystal has shown the elastic deformation characteristics at the low temperature region. But the slight plastic deformation behavior was shown as applied the high strain over $1,000^{\circ}C$. Also the elastic constants of the SiC crystal were changed from about 475 GPa to 425 GPa as increased the temperature to $1,250^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, we deal with to survey a narrow band ISDN transmission capability through the local subscriber line in Korea. First, we disscuss international activity trends of technical references required for a narrow band ISDN services using existing pair cables. Second, we have measured transmission characteristics to send digital signals at 144kbps ratio through the local subscriber line With this result, we have found that 3.6% of measured lines are not availlable for a narow band ISDN channel, obtained a conclusion that the input level of U-transceiver should be more than -31dBm so as to assure the sufficient digital transmission quality. We also know that majority noise cased by transmission error are due to impulsive noise and near end crosstalk. Fianlly. as a result of the BER measruement, it is observed that, within 2.5km, more than 70% of measured cables are satisfied with the reference quality.

Being aware of growing needs for wireless communication led to the development of UWB systems, this study proposed an impulse for single band UWB systems which does not count a carrier; analyzed the characteristics and the problems of pulses suggested by the existing poise of the Un system; finally, proposed TDMG(Time Delay Multiple Gaussian) pulse that generates signals of UWB without attenuation of pulse width. The hardware structure of the TDMC pulse for the single band UWB system was modelled after describing the pulse in a mathematical method in an attempt to compare with performances of the existing pulses through computer simulation. The outcome of the test unveiled the fact that each center frequency of the TDMG pulse rose approximately 1GHz, and also each l0dB fractional bandwidth of the TDMG pulse was widened over 1GHz. In the case of derivative, center frequencies of the TDMG pulse rose over 1GHz each. As a consequence, the TDMG pulse appeared to have better quality frequency, satisfying the characteristics of spectrum and the band of frequency recommended by the FCC and decreasing interference with other wireless communication systems.

BIS(Bus Information System) provides the different information related to buses including predictions of arriving times at stations. BIS have been deployed almost all cities in our country and played active roles to improve the convenience of public transportation systems. Moving average filters, Kalman filter and regression models have been representative in forecasting the arriving times of buses in current BIS. The accuracy in prediction of arriving times depends largely on the forecasting algorithms and traffic conditions considered when forecasting in BIS. In present BIS, the simple prediction algorithms are used only considering the passage times and distances between stations. The forecasting of arrivals, however, have been influenced by the traffic conditions such as traffic signals, traffic accidents and pedestrians ets., and missing data. To improve the accuracy of bus arriving estimates, there are big troubles in building models including the above problems. Hidden Markov Models have been effective algorithms considering various restrictions above. So, we have built the HMM forecasting models for bus arriving times in the current BIS. When building models, the data collected from Sunchean City at 2015 have been utilized. There are about 2298 stations and 217 routes in Suncheon city. The models are developed differently week days and weekend. And then the models are conformed with the data from different districts and times. We find that our HMM models can provide more accurate forecasting than other existing methods like moving average filters, Kalmam filters, or regression models. In this paper, we propose Hidden Markov Model to obtain more precise and accurate model better than Moving Average Filter, Kalman Filter and regression model. With the help of Hidden Markov Model, two different sections were used to find the pattern and verified using Bootstrap process.

N-RTK(Network based RTK) methods are able to improve the accuracy of GNSS positioning results through modelling of the distance-dependent error sources(i.e. primarily the ionospheric and tropospheric delays and orbit errors). In this study, the comparison of the TTFF(Time-To-Fix-First ambiguity), accuracy and discrepancies in horizontal/vertical components of N-RTK methods(VRS and FKP) with the static GNSS at 20 Unified Control Stations covering Incheon metropolitan city area during solar storms(Solar cycle 24 period) were performed. The results showed that the best method, compared with the statics GNSS survey, is the VRS, followed by the FKP, but vertical components of both VRS and FKP were approximately two times bigger than horizontal components. The reason for this is considered as the ionospheric scintillation because of irregularities in electron density, and the tropospheric scintillation because of fluctuations on the refractive index take the place. When the TTFF at each station for each technique used, VRS gave shorter initialization time than FKP. The possible reasons for this result might be the inherent differences in principles, errors in characteristics of different correction networks, interpolating errors of FKP parameters according to the non-linear variation of the dispersive and non-dispersive errors at rover when considering both domestic mobile communication infra and the standardized high-compact data format for N-RTK. Also, those test results revealed degradation of positing accuracy, long initialization time, and sudden re-initialization, but more failures to resolve ambiguity during space weather events caused by Sunspot activity and solar flares.
