In the presence of spoofing signal the GPS signal having the same PRN with the spoofer is hard to be acquired since the power of spoofing signal is usually stronger than that of GPS signal. If a spoofing signal exists for the same PRN, there are double peaks in two-dimensional space of frequency and code phase in acquisition stage. Using double peak information it is possible to detect spoofing signal and acquire GPS information through separate channel tracking. In this paper we introduce an anti-spoofing method using double peak detection, and thus can acquire GPS navigation data after two-channel tracking for the same PRN as the spoofing signal.

갈륨-질화물(GaN) 기반의 고속전자이동도 트랜지스터(high electron mobility transistor, HEMT)는 최근 마이크로파 또는 밀리미터파 등의 고주파 대역의 통신시스템에 널리 사용되는 전자소자이자, 차세대 고주파용 전력 소자로 각광받고 있다. AlGaN/GaN HEMT에서 AlGaN층과 GaN층의 이종접합 구조(heterostructure)는 두 물질 간의 큰 전도대의 불연속성으로 인해 발생하는 이차원 전자가스(two-dimensional electron gas, 2DEG) 채널을 이용하여 높은 전자이동도, 높은 항복전압 및 우수한 고출력 특성을 얻는 것이 가능하다. 그러나 이린 이론적인 우수한 특성에도 불구하고 실제 AlGaN/GaN HEMT 소자에서는 AlGaN 표면과 AlGaN과 GaN 층 사이 접합면, AlGaN과 GaN 벌크층에 존재하는 트랩의 영향으로 이론보다 낮은 DC 출력 특성을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 표면, 접합면, 벌크 층에 존재하는 트랩들을 각각의 존재 유무에 따라 시뮬레이션 함으로써 각각의 트랩이 DC 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해서 알아본다. 또한 소스와 게이트, 드레인과 게이트간의 거리에 따라 표면 트랩에 따른 영향과 AlGaN층과 GaN 층의 두께를 변화시켜가면서 각 층의 두께에 따라 벌크 트랩이 DC 특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 본 논문에서 트랩에 따른 특성의 파악을 위해서 $ATLAS^{TM}$를 이용하여 전산모사 하였다.

The AlGaN/GaN heterostructure has high electron mobility due to the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) layer, and has the characteristic of high breakdown voltage at high temperature due to its wide bandgap, making it a promising candidate for high-power and high-frequency electronic devices. Despite these advantages, there are factors that affect the reliability of various device properties such as current collapse. To address this issue, this paper used metal-organic chemical vapor deposition to continuously deposit AlGaN/GaN heterostructure and SiN passivation layer. Material and electrical properties of GaN HEMTs with/without SiN cap layer were analyzed, and based on the results, low-frequency noise characteristics of GaN HEMTs were measured to analyze the conduction mechanism model and the cause of defects within the channel.

In this paper, the threshold voltage roll-off been analyzed for nano structure double gate FinFET. The analytical current model has been developed , including thermionic current and tunneling current models. The potential distribution by Poisson equation and carrier distribution by Maxwell-Boltzman statistics are used to calculate thermionic emission current, and WKB(Wentzel- framers-Brillouin) approximation to tunneling current. The threshold voltage roll-offs are obtained by simple adding two currents since two current is independent. The threshold voltage roll-off by this model are compared with those by two dimensional simulation and two values are good agreement. Since the tunneling current increases especially under channel length of 10nm, the threshold voltage roll-off Is very large. The channel and gate oxide thickness have to be fabricated as thin as possible to decrease this short channel effects and this process has to be developed.

This paper proposes a fully-utilized block-based 2D DWT architecture, which consists of four 1D DWT filters with two-channel QMF PR Lattice structure. For 100% hardware utilization, we propose a new method which processes four input values at the same time. On the contrary to the image-based 2D DWT which requires large memories, we propose a block-based 2D DWT so that we only need 2MN-3N of storages, where M and N stand for filter lengths and width of the image respectively. Furthermore, the proposed architecture processes in horizontal and vertical directions simultaneously so that it computes the DWT for an $N{\times}N$ image within a period of $N^2(1-2^{-2J})/3$. Compared to existing approaches, the proposed architecture shows 100% of hardware utilization and high throughput rate. However, the proposed architecture may suffer from the long critical path delay due to the cascaded lattices in 1D DWT filters. This problem can be mitigated by applying the pipeline technique with maximum four level. The proposed architecture has been designed with VerilogHDL and synthesized using DongbuAnam $0.18{\mu}m$ standard cell.

3D imaging systems using 2D phased arrays have a large number of active channels, compelling to use a very expensive and bulky beamforming hardware, and suffer from low volume rate because, in principle, at least one ultrasound transmit-receive event is necessary to construct each scanline. A high speed 3D imaging method using a cross array proposed previously to solve the above limitations can implement fast scanning and dynamic focusing in the lateral direction but suffer from low resolution except at the fixed transmit focusing along the elevational direction. To overcome these limitations, we propose a new real-time volumetric imaging method using a cross array based on the synthetic aperture technique. In the proposed method, ultrasound wave is transmitted successively using each elements of an 1D transmit array transducer, one at a time, which is placed along the elevational direction and for each firing, the returning pulse echoes are received using all elements of an 1D receive array transducer placed along the lateral direction. On receive, by employing the conventional dynamic focusing and synthetic aperture method along lateral and elevational directions, respectively, ultrasound waves can be focused effectively at all imaging points. In addition, in the proposed method, a volume of interest consisting of any required number of slice images, can be constructed with the same number of transmit-receive steps as the total number of transmit array elements. Computer simulation results show that the proposed method can provide the same and greatly improved resolutions in the lateral and elevational directions, respectively, compared with the 3D imaging method using a cross array based on the conventional fixed focusing. In the accompanying paper, we will also propose a new real-time 3D imaging method using a cross array for improving transmit power and elevational spatial resolution, which uses linear wave fronts on transmit.
