The distribution of the space debris caused by any source affects the DBS & FSS wave propagation for satellite communication. In this paper, the normalized expansion coefficients are evaluated with varying the volume distribution density of space debris and the operating frequency, and then the attenuation and phase shift are calculated by using the normalized expansion coefficients. Conclusively, the attenuation and phase shift are mostly affected with the real and imaginary part of the amplitude function, respectively, which represented by electric field component of the Bessel function. The results of this paper adapted for the design of the link budget for satellite communication system and the reconsideration of space environment as the space debris increses by geometric progression.

RF skin tracking of instrumentation RADAR cannot acquire stable track data, because of effect of multipath interference especially elevation direction. In this paper, low altitude target tracking method using laser tracking system is suggested to overcome this restriction. The effect of multipath can be reduced by increasing angle resolution with laser characteristics of very short pulse and narrow beamwidth. RF skin track, beacon track and laser track data for the integrated calibration target on the ground and target ship on the sea are gathered. And they are compared and analyzed to confirm the performance of laser tracking system. As a result, it shows that the suggested laser track method has better performance than RF skin track under multipath conditions.

This paper presents an altitude detection accuracy for long range and multifunction radar. The accuracy is difficult to estimate because it is affected by an time varying atmosphere refractivity. We analyze altitude accuracy with a raytracing simulator with atmosphere refractivity. An altitude error is simulated with measured and modeled refractivity, and the modeled refractivity is used for compensate an altitude accuracy. As a result, the error is modeled with normal distribution function, and analyzed.

There are several factors that have influence on the phase noise of an oscillator. But one of the major factors is the flicker noise of a transistor, since the phase noise of an oscillator is generated by mixing the carrier with the low frequency noise near the DC having the characteristic of 1/f. In this paper, we have presented a method on reducing the phase noise of an oscillator by using a low-frequency feedback circuit based on an active bias circuit, and have fabricated a DRO for a DBS receiver. Measurement results show that the phase noise is -92 dBc/Hz at the 10 KHz offset frequency, and from these results we have found out that the reduction method is very effective.

Decoupling capacitors are commonly used to reduce the effect of SSN propagated through parallel power and ground planes in high-speed multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs). In this paper, we introduced a simple high frequency measurement and proposed a wideband (50 MHz ∼3 GHz) equivalent circuit model for decoupling capacitor considering high frequency parasitic effects. The proposed model can be easily combined with the SPICE model of power supply planes far SSN analysis. The circuit simulations with the proposed model show good agreement with the measurement results. Also, we expect to accurately analyze the noise reduction effect as a function of value and location using the proposed model of decoupling capacitor.

In this paper, we analyzed the performance of GFSK system that presence fading effect in indoor radio communication environments and impulsive electromagnetic noise from electronic equipments then we applied the Truncated Type- II Hybrid ARQ scheme to make satisfied in data transmission service. As a result, the system was influenced by fading and impulsive electromagnetic noise. Especially, the system was much degraded by high occurrence frequency and amplitude of impulsive electromagnetic noise than fading which has direct frequency. By adopting the Truncated Type-II hybrid ARQ technique we can also obtained the performance improvement in the low signal power(20 dB) arid over 24 dB in strong impulsive electromagnetic noise environment which is occurred error floor and terribly influenced by the system.

When a FM-CW radar is used to measure the target distance, the nonlinearity relationship between the VCO control voltage and the output frequency makes an adverse effect on the measurement accuracy. Recently, many nonlinearity correction schemes using signal processing techniques and dedicated hardwares have been studied. This paper presents a signal processing technique to compensate for the VCO nonlinearity using a reference signal. To demonstrate the validity of the presented technique, several experiments were conducted and the results show reduction of the distortion in the range profile and the resolution improvement.

This paper presents the influence on the transmission characteristics of dimensional tolerances of rectangular waveguides usually used as a low-loss transmission line in the millimeter-wave band. We derived the Green's functions of the waveguide with eigenfunction expansion method. The reflection coefficient of the waveguide with a post is calculated by using internal impedance in order to investigate the influence of dimensional tolerances of the waveguide. In order to check the validity of the theoretical analysis, the calculated reflection coefficients are compared with the measured results.

This paper addresses the effect of group delay in satellite communication system. Phase of signal is distorted by the non-constant group delay. Group delay can be modeled as linear, parabolic and cubic type according to the polynomial characteristic. We investigate BER performance of satellite communication system with each 3 kinds of group delay. As signal bandwidth becomes wider, group delay makes more influence on the signal. BNR performance of satellite communication system is found when data rates are 1Mbps, 4Mbps and 8Mbps. Convolution coding with the code rate of 1/2 or 7/8 is used. At BER =10$\^$-5/, system with group delay needs more SNR of minimum 0.3㏈ to maximum 4.4㏈ than system without group delay. The worst case of BER performance happens in the linear group delay, 7/8 punctured convolution coding and 8 Mbps. The required SNR is increased by 4.4㏈ at this worst case.

This study investigated electrical conductivity, electromagnetic shielding effectiveness, and mechanical property to improve electromagnetic shielding performance of high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCC). Steel fiber, steel slag and carbon black as a conductive material were incorporated into the HPFRCC mixes. In addition, 2% CNT solution which was produced by dispersing multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) into water was used as a conductive material. In the test results, electrical conductivity of HPFRCC specimens was very low except for the specimen incorporating 1% carbon black. Micro structure of cement matrix was changed as the curing time increased, which negatively affected the conductive network of HPFRCC. In case of HC1 specimen showing a conductive network (0.083 S/cm), the electrical conductivity of the specimen after being dried at $60^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours to exclude the effect of water on electrical conductivity was significantly reduced to 0.0003 S/cm. The most important parameter of electromagnetic shielding effect was found to be a steel fiber while the effect of carbon black and steel slag was very few. The correlation between electrical conductivity and electromagnetic shielding effect does not seem to be clear.
