The method of overcoming the limitation of optical phase conjugator applied into optical long-haul link for transmitting high capacity wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) channels was investigated. The configuration of optical link was based on dispersion-managed link, in which dispersion compensating fiber inserted into each fiber span with single mode fiber, and optical phase conjugator was added into suitable location of link. The maximum number of fiber spans as a function of the launch power of WDM channels in optical link with optical phase conjugator placed at the proposed location was induced and compared for analyzing the compensation performance of the distorted WDM channels. It was confirmed that the more optical phase conjugator depart from the midway of total transmission length, the less the distorted WDM channels was compensated, however, it was also confirmed that the degradation of compensation can be overcome by the suitable value of residual dispersion per span and by the reasonable choice of fiber span controlling total dispersion accumulated in overall transmission link.

To reduce the outage probability and to increase the transmission capacity, the importance of repeaters in cellular systems keeps increasing. Unlike optical repeaters which require wireline connections, RF repeaters are easy to install, have low limitations in location and also have a reduced operational expense such as the optical fiber maintenance cost. On the other hand, RF repeaters suffer the interference due to the feedback signals between the transmitter and receiver antennas, hence require an extra interference cancellation method when the amount of the feedback signal reduction by using the shielding is not sufficient. In this paper, a channel estimation method for two-path feedback interference signals in the ICS (Interference Cancellation System) repeaters using baseband signal processing is proposed and its performance is evaluated. When compared with the conventional method which estimates each multipath individually, the proposed method achieves 10 dB performance gain in terms of the normalized mean-squared-error.

In this paper, we analyze effects of positions of relays on the performance of cooperative communication networks. From this, the best relays are chosen to assist transmitting the signal to the destination or to replace the source to retransmit the signal to the destination whenever the destination incorrectly receives the signal from the source. As the results, we show the significant improvement on performance of schemes choosing best relays, which is compared to the performance of other cooperative schemes. Moreover, the simulation results that match exactly with the theoretical results prove the correctness of the analysis.

In this paper, for a relay-based cellular network, a interference avoidance beamforming technique is proposed to enhance direct link capacity while minimizing loss in the capacity of concurrent relaying link. A direct link is transmitted by beamforming at the transmitter, and the relaying link with the least interference to the direct link is scheduled to transmit data by a collision avoidance scheduling algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed IA beamforming provides a considerable direct link capacity enhancement while minimizing relaying link capacity loss by effectively mitigating inference between concurrent direct and relaying links only with limited feedback.

The first geostationary satellite made by Korea, COMS, has the three different payload ; Meteorological sensor, Oceanographic sensor and Ka-band communication payload. There are Meteorological & Ocean Data Communication Subsystem(MODCS) and Telemetry, Command and Ranging Subsystem(TC&R) as other RF radiation sources. MODCS transmits and receives Meteo and Ocean measurement data from/to earth using L-band and TC&R using S-band. The Ka-band communication payload will provide high-speed multimedia services and communication services for natural disaster such as prediction, prevention, and recovery services in the government communications network.Ka-band beacon is for the earth antenna pointing and the experiment of rain fading. This paper gives the analysis results about the mutual radiation effect on Ka-band communication payload, Ka-band beacon, MODCS and TC&R. Up/Down link power and coupling factor including the geometrical position and distance of antenna, filter rejection and degradation factor due to the different polarization are considered. The results show MODCS and TC&R are compatible for Ka-band communication payload and Ka-band beacon does not interfere with MODCS and TC&R normal operation.

The prompt and accurate location determination of the nodes of the wireless indoor shipboard networks is crucial to forming the stable wireless shipboard sensor networks. To this end in this paper it can be achieved through the measurement of the bi-directional channel qualities among the nodes after the locations of the sensor nodes temporarily placed. For the 1st stage the piconet-type sensor networks are considered to measure the channel qualities between a specific node and the cluster node which is the master node. After finishing the 1st stage measurement the nodes needing the relay nodes are selected and the measurement action goes into the 2nd stage. In the 2nd stage the measurement between a candidate relay node and the node needing a relay node starts to begin. After the 2nd stage the relay nodes to connect to the cluster node are fixed and the information delivery paths between a node and the cluster head are established. In this paper the measurement results in the realistic environment are gathered and analysed to show that the measurement procedure can be applied in the wireless indoor shipboard networks.

Upcoming cellular networks such as LTE-advanced and IEEE 802.16m are enhanced by relay stations to support high data rate multimedia services and minimize the shadow zone with low cost. Enhancing the relay stations, however, divides the multihop cellular network into smaller microcells and the distance between microcells is closer, which intends large intra-cell and inter-cell interference. Especially the access link on downlink in the OFDMA cellular network is the throughput bottleneck due to the severe interference caused by base stations and relay stations transmitting large data to mobile stations simultaneously. In this paper, we present interference aware channel allocation algorithm to avoid severe interference on multihop cellular networks with random topology. Proposed algorithm increases SINR(signal to interference plus noise ratio) and decreases number of required control messages for channel allocation, so that increases overall throughput on the networks.

The configuration of dispersion-managed optical link with optical phase conjugator, which is placed at the non-midway of total transmission length, is proposed for implementing of the flexible optical network. The optical phase conjugator is located between the former half transmission section and the latter half transmission section, which are consisted of 6 fiber spans and 14 fiber spans respectively, and the averaged RDPS of each half transmission section are inconsistence. And, the artificial distribution of each fiber span's RDPS, which are gradually increased/decreased as the span numbers are increased, is adopted to compensate for the distorted wavelength division multiplexed channels. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the compensation in dispersion-managed link configured by a special distribution pattern among 16 proposed patterns, in which the RDPS of each fiber spans are gradually decreased/increased in the former/latter half section with the small deviation, is suitable to compensate for the distorted wavelength division multiplexed channels.

It is not easy to identify the location of mobile terminals based on drones in the mountainous area, the densely populated urban area, or the space where mobile terminals can easily move by using equipments or modules that can recognize the location of sensors or mobile terminals with LBS (Location-Based Service). However, although the performance of GPS has developed due to the development of technology, it is still widely used in position recognition systems using GPS modules in the sea and onshore, and there is much room for more utilization. Currently, most of the existing sensor networks need to send at least three location information messages to mobile terminals with location information that a plurality of mobile base stations depend on GPS. However, location recognition of mobile repeaters that maintain a certain movement speed using acceleration sensors is necessary for efficient communication network connection.
