In this paper, error performance of DS/FH CDMA system has been analyzed in a radio channel which is characterized by near-far problem and multi-path fading. The DS/FH CDMA system adopts Maximum Ratio Combining(MRC) diversity and BCH(Bose-Chau dhuri-Hocquenghem) coding techniques to enhance system performance. Using the derived error probability equation, the error performance of DS/FH CDMA system has been evaluated and shown in figures to discuss as a function of PN code length(N), hopping rate(q), number of diversity branch(M), coding rate($\gamma$) and bit energy per noise power ratio ${E_b/N_o}$. The results show that DS/FH system is more effective to restrain the affection of near-far problem and multi-path fading than DS system. And there is a substantial enhancement in performance by employing an MRC diversity or BCH coding techniques. Consequently, we expected that proposed system structure is reliable to the voice communication system in near-far problem and multi-path fading channel.

In this paper, we propose and design a SSD(Simultaneous Single band Duplex) system using 5G(Generation) candidate modulations. Especially, we consider HPA(High Power Amplifier) nonlinearity in the proposed system. And then, we evaluate and analyze performance of the proposed system. As simulation results, performance of SSD-OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), SSD-FMC (Universal Filtered Multi-Carrier), and SSD-FBMC(Filter Bank Multi-Carrier) is severely degraded by HPA nonlinearity. However, performance of SSD-OFDM, SSD-UFMC, and SSD-FBMC is similar in the same condition. That is, OFDM, UFMC, and FBMC have a similar PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio) characteristic. Finally, we can confirm that the proposed SSD system can not cancel(SI) self-interference effectively by strong HPA nonlinearity. That is, Reducing PAPR is important in order to avoid effect of HPA nonlinearity in the proposed SSD system.

In this paper, a multi-layer dual-band bandpass filter using aperture-coupling is proposed. Two coupling paths are formed with the two apertures which exist between two dual-mode resonators. The coupling coefficients can be adjusted without changing the shape of resonators. The bandwidth of the second passband can be adjusted without affecting the bandwidth of the first passband using the size of an aperture between stubs of the dual-mode resonator. The aperture coupling mechanism is theoretically analysed. The dual-mode bandpass filter for the 2.4 GHz WLAN, 3.5 GHz WiMax was designed and fabricated. The fabricated filter shows centered 2.45 GHz and 3.5 GHz with 9 % and 8 % of the bandwidth.

This paper investigates the performance of EPCglobal Generation-2(Gen-2) radio frequency identification(RFID) protocol under reader-to-reader interfering environments. We establish a modified discrete-time Markov chain(DTMC) model for the Gen-2 and accordingly obtain quantitative results of query success rate(QSR) and tag identification speed (TIS). Extensive simulations validate our theoretical analysis and demonstrate that the number of tags over 100 has little impact on the performance. TIS linearly decreases by 10 tags/sec/reader as the number of interfering readers increases. Our model for Gen-2 protocol is also useful to study the performance of other RFID protocols.

The effect of plasma on mono-static radar cross section under atmospheric pressure is demonstrated when the dielectric barrier discharge actuator has plasma layer. The volume of plasma layer is increased by using planar array of electrodes. Because the incident wave has electric field which is perpendicular to the electrode array, the undesired effect on radar cross section caused by structure of plasma actuator is minimized. In experiments, mono-static radar cross section is measured at the frequencies from 2 GHz to 25 GHz. The generated plasma reduces the radar cross section at frequencies above 18 GHz, and the amount of reduction reaches to 8 dB in maximum. The reduction can be controlled by changing the peak-to-peak voltage from high voltage generator. The result shows the possibility of plasma as a flexible radar cross section controller.

The Explosive Magnetic Generator of Frequency (EMGF) has been studied as a method to generate a strong microwave effectively through converting the explosion powder energy into the electromagnetic energy. However, the generated high frequency electromagnetic wave has not been explained clearly yet, for it is known to be difficult to analyze the high frequency electromagnetic wave oscillation using a simple time-varying equivalent circuit model. In this paper, we analyze the problems of the widely used inductance model with an exponential decreasing pattern and investigate the tendency of a more accurate inductance variation model using the finite element method of EMGF inductance by considering the magnetic compression effect. And we have shown via an EMGF output simulation that the new inductance variation model proposed here has an negative effect on EMGF output.

This paper presents a method to perform a more efficient electromagnetic wave analysis inside a large building by external electromagnetic waves. Topological analysis and the PWB method are introduced for electromagnetic wave analysis. In addition, a Performance-Enhanced PWB method, which complements the performance of the PWB method is proposed. A large virtual structure was selected and an analysis environment was set up to perform the electromagnetic wave analysis inside a large building from external electromagnetic waves. A commercially available software, Wireless Insite, was used to verify the accuracy of the the Performance- Enhanced PWB method. As a result of comparing the two results in terms of accuracy, time, and memory, We conclude that the Performance-Enhanced PWB method proposed in this paper is a more efficient method in a large bulding.

The effectiveness of the phased array antenna in wireless power transfer systems is due to its ability to form a beam pattern towards the desired direction. To maximize the efficiency of wireless power transfer through beamforming, the transmitter must recognize the information on the optimal transmission path. To achieve this, the transmitter usually transmits pilot signals periodically and the receiver extracts the optimal beamforming weights using the pilot signals. The receiver then feeds the beamforming weights back to the transmitter. In general, the amount of feedback increases with the number of antennas, which causes feedback overhead when there is a large number of antennas. In this paper, we propose a feedback simplification scheme based on the far-field approximation method. The simulation results are provided to validate the impact of the simplified feedback on the beam pattern.

When a free-falling ballistic missile intercepts a maritime target in a sea clutter environment at high grazing angle, detection performance of the ballistic missile's seeker can be rapidly degraded by the effect of sea clutter. To solve this problem, it is necessary to verify the performance of maritime target detection via simulations based on various scenarios. We accomplish this by applying a two-dimensional cell -averaging constant false alarm rate detector to a two-dimensional radar image, which is generated by merging a sea clutter signal at high grazing angle with a maritime target signal corresponding to the signal-to-clutter ratio. Simulation results using a computer-aided design model and commercial numerical electromagnetic solver in various scenarios show that the performance of maritime target detection significantly depends on the grazing and azimuth angles.

It is generally well-known that the inevitable high power electromagnetic wave affects the malfunction and disorder of electronic equipments and serious damages in electronic communication systems. Hence, it is necessary to take measures against high power electromagnetic(HPEM) wave for protecting electronic devices as well as human resources. The topological analysis based on Baum-Liu-Tesche(BLT) equation simplifying the moving path of electromagnetic and the observation points and Power Balance Method(PWB) employing statistical electromagnetic analysis are introduced to analyze relatively electrically large cavity with little time consumption. In addition to the PWB method, full wave results for cylindrical cavity with apertures and incident plane wave are presented for comparison with time-consumption rate according to the cavity size.
