In case that conventional PRC(Pseudo-Randomized Frequency Carrier) modulation scheme is applied to a three-phase HBML(H-Bridge Multi-Level Inverter), the dominant harmonics spectra appear at twice switching frequency. In this paper, the dominant harmonics spectra spreading effect of the conventional PRC scheme was improved by using three stage MUXs(Multiplexers) and two triangular carriers with fixed frequency which has mutual relation of the twice frequency. To confirm the validity of the improved PRC scheme, the experiment were performed on a 1.5[kw] three-phase HBML based induction motor drives. And, the harmonics spectra of the conventional and improved PRC schemes are compared and discussed.

Recently a new spectrum ruling has been proposed for UWB(Ultra-Wideband) communication applications. The new proposal is expected to reduce the usable UWB spectrum significantly and may cause to weaken the unique advantages of the UWB pulses such as high resolution synchronizations and robustness to the multipath effects. In this paper, we investigate the performance degradation caused by the reduced UWB spectrum. As a means to overcome the performance degradation, a modified discrete linear frequency modulation technique is proposed. We show that, when multipath components are present in the received signal, the proposed method exhibits superior performances in terms of pulse detection efficiency and range resolutions.

본 연구에서는 분자선 박막 성장법(MBE)으로 성장된 GaAs single junction solar cell의 광학적 특성 변화를 photoreflectance (PR)을 이용하여 연구하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 태양전지 구조는 n+-GaAs (100)기판 위에 n+-GaAs buffer를 200 nm 성장 후 그 위에 i-GaAs 250 nm와 p+-GaAs 200 nm 성장 하였다. 상온에서 PR 측정 결과, 변조빔 세기가 증가할수록 Franz-Keldysh oscillation (FKO)의 주파수가 증가하는 현상이 관측되었다. 이는 변조빔의 세기가 강해질수록 광케리어수의 증가로 인한 스크리닝 효과에 기인한 것으로 사료된다. 아울러 Fast Fourier transform (FFT) 결과, 변조빔의 세기가 약할 때는 세 개의 주된 피크가 나타났으며, 이러한 현상은 GaAs에서 가전자대의 heavy hole (HH)과 light hole (LH)의 전이로 인해 나타나는 FKO 신호가 중첩되어 HH과 LH 피크가 HH과 HH-,LH과 LH-로 나뉘어진 것으로 사료된다. 여기광의 세기가 $1.40mW/cm^2$ 이상일 때는 주된 세 개 피크 이외에 부가적인 피크가 상대적으로 고 주파수 영역에서 관측되었다. 이러한 고주파수 영역에서의 나타나는 FKO 주파수는 시료의 내부전기장이 여기광의 세기가 증가할수록 감소하는 결과로 사료된다.

This paper proposes an effective tempo feature extraction method for music information retrieval. The tempo information is modeled by the narrow-band temporal modulation components, which are decomposed into a modulation spectrum via joint frequency analysis. In implementation, the tempo feature is directly extracted from the modified discrete cosine transform coefficients, which is the output of partial MP3(MPEG 1 Layer 3) decoder. Then, different features are extracted from the amplitudes of modulation spectrum and applied to different music information retrieval tasks. The logarithmic scale modulation frequency coefficients are employed in automatic music emotion classification and music genre classification. The classification precision in both systems is improved significantly. The bit vectors derived from adaptive modulation spectrum is used in audio fingerprinting task That is proved to be able to achieve high robustness in this application. The experimental results in these tasks validate the effectiveness of the proposed tempo feature.

In this paper, for high speed railway propulsion systems, a single phase PWM Converter using discontinuous PWM (DPWM) was investigated. The conventional PWM Converter uses a low frequency modulation index of less than 10 to reduce switching losses due to high power characteristics, which results in low control frequency bandwidth and requires an additional compensation method. To solve these problems, the DPWM method, which is commonly used in three phase PWM Inverters, was adopted to a single phase PWM Converter. The proposed method was easily implemented using offset voltage techniques. Method can improve the control performance by doubling the frequency modulation index for the same switching loss, and can also bring the same dynamic characteristics among switches. Proposed DPWM method was verified by simulation of 100 kW PWM converter.

In this paper, a simplified new modulation classification method that utilizes likelihood function for received signal in an impaired AWGN channel environment. The proposed method provides the superior to ML method, although the likelihood under the assumption that each modulated signal is sent utilized. On the other hand, the ML method gets the performance characteristics of high computational complexity and weakness to channel impairment such as phase offsets and frequency offsets. The proposed method has lower computational complexity than that of the ML method. Moreover, the proposed method is robust to the channel impairment such as phase offsets and frequency offsets. The correct classification probabilities of the proposed method and the ML method are given for an AWGN channel with phase offsets and frequency offsets, which were simulated with extensive Monte-Carlo simulation. As shown in simulation resole, a more accurate classification performance both in phase offset environment and in frequency offset can be achieved with the low computational complexity of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose a new design method of signal constellation of the spiral quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) exploiting a modified gradient descent search algorithm and its binary mapping rule. Unlike the conventional method, the new method, which uses and the constellation optimization algorithm and the maximum number of iterations as a parameter for the iterative design, is more robust to phase noise. And the proposed binary mapping rule significantly reduces the average Hamming distance of the spiral constellation. As a result, the proposed spiral QAM constellation has much improved error performance compared to the conventional ones even in a very severe phase noise environment. It is, therefore, considered that the proposed QAM may be a useful modulation format for coherent optical communication systems and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems.

광 간섭계는 광을 이용한 다양한 계측분야에 사용된다. 일반적인 광 간섭계의 지연단은 기계적인 광지연에 의해 저속이며, 시스템 구성상 안정성이 떨어지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 광간섭계 지연단의 기계적 방식을 배제한 광위상 변조기를 이용한 지연단을 설계하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. 제안된 광 간섭계는 1310nm 10GHz의 반복율을 갖는 광원과 광위상변조기를 이용한 전(全) 광섬유 형태로 안정한 구성을 하였다. 구성된 광간섭계는 광위상 변조기의 변조 전압, 변조 주파수의 변화에 의해 광지연시간의 쉬운 변조가 가능하였으며 최대 20ps 의 광지연시간을 얻을 수 있었다.
