In this paper, we address the design of adaptive handover schemes based on the signal strength measurement for cellular communications systems. Conventional handover algorithms, which are based only on the downlink measurement, cannot guarantee the required uplink quality because uplink channel can differ greatly from downlink channel quality. Therefore, we proposes a new suboptimal adaptive handover algorithm that considers both the uplink and downlink channel quality in order to achieve the best cell selection gains when there is a wide difference between the uplink and downlink signal quality. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves better performance compared to conventional handover schemes.

본 논문에서는 CPW 구조를 이용하여 60 GHz 무선 시스템 응용을 위한 V-band용 하향 주파수 혼합기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 하향 주파수 혼합기의 설계 및 제작에 있어서 GaAs PHEMT(Pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor)를 기반으로 하였으며, 회로설계를 위해 coplanar waveguide(CPW) 라이브러리를 구축하여 이용하였다. 제작된 하향 주파수 혼합기의 변환이득은 국부발진주파수(LO) 입력이 8 dBm일 때 -8.5 dB의 최대 변환이득 특성을 얻었으며 Pl dB는 -3.3 dBm을 얻었다. 제작된 회로의 칩 크기는 1.6$\times$l.6 $\textrm{mm}^2$ 이다.

하천 내 설치하는 수제는 제방보호 및 유로변경의 목적으로 하천내 시공되는 구조물 중의 하나로서 하천복원과정에 있어 필수불가결한 구조물 중의 하나로 인식되고 있다. 수제는 대개 하나 이상의 일련의 군집형태로 수로 자체의 특성을 고려하여 설치가 되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 수제의 무분별한 설치는 주변 경관을 저해하는 요소로 나타날 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 시공에 따른 비용에 적지 않은 부담을 야기 시키기 충분하다.본 실험에서는 하향수제($\theta=135^{\circ}$)를 대상으로 수제간격에 대한 이동상 실험을 수행하여 수제주변 및 수제역 내에서 발생하는 하상변동특성을 검토하고자 하였다. 실험은 폭 1.2m, 길이 50m, 높이 1.5m 인 직선수로에서 수로폭의 15%길이를 갖는 하향수제($\theta=135^{\circ}$) 2개를 대상으로 각각 수제길이의 2~ 8배의 간격 조절을 통해 하상변동실험을 수행 하였다. 실험용입자는 중간입경($d_{50}$)이 0.15mm 인 모래를 사용하였으며 6시간 동안 통수하였다. 실험 결과 수제의 간격이 4배 미만으로 설치되었을 때 전면부 수제에서 발생하는 세굴의 영향이 후면부 수제 설치지점에 연장되어 나타나는 것이 확인 되었으며 수제간격이 7배 일 경우 전면부 수제에서 발생하는 최대세굴과 같은 세굴심이 관측되었다. 또한 수제간격이 4배이상으로 설치될 경우 후면부 수제에서 독립적인 세굴이 발생하고 있었는데 이는 직각수제 세굴과 동일한 현상으로 나타났다.

수공구조물을 설계하기 위해서는 다양한 지속기간에 대한 설계수문량을 추정해야 한다. 국내의 경우도 기후변화로 인한 이상기후의 발생으로 1~2시간 동안 강우강도가 큰 집중호우가 발생하여 도시홍수를 발생시키며 직접 또는 간접적으로 피해를 주고 있다. 특히 북한 지역은 강우관측소가 존재하지 않은 지역이 많아 수공구조물 설계에 필요한 설계수문량을 추정하기에 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 하향스케일링(down-scaling)을 이용하여 북한 지역의 24시간 이내의 확률강우량을 추정하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 미계측 유역인 화천댐 상류유역의 지역빈도해석과 군집분석을 수행하여 수문학적 동질성을 확보하였고, 한강유역을 4개의 동질지역으로 구분하였다. 스케일 성질은 동일한 분포형을 가정하므로 수문학적 동질성이 확보된 기준 지속기간의 자료로부터 임의이 지속기간에 대한 확률강우량 추정이 가능하다. 따라서 북한지역의 짧은 지속기간에 대한 확률 강우량 추정을 위하여 동일한 지역 내의 지역 스케일 지수와 스케일 인자를 이용하여 하향스케일링을 적용할 수 있으며, 단기 혹은 장기에 해당하는 지속기간에 대한 확률강우량을 추정할 수 있다.

This paper describes playback downlink and telecommand uplink channel design performed for a transportable small-sized KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) ground station. As a result of downlink channel design, required receiving performance was calculated from the threshold signal-to-noise ratio of playback signal and it was revealed that this performance can be guaranteed in 1.5 m ground station with 6.5 dB/K of G/T. For the uplink channel design, 40 dBW of EIRP was derived from the threshold signal-to-noise ratio of telecommand signal received at on-board receiver. The implemented small-sized ground station based on design was evaluated to be fully acceptable for KOMPSAT TT&C(Telemetry, Tracking and Command) system and playback downlink design without taking account of additional 3 dB system link margin was shown to be effective because it had provided constantly initial channel performance without any remarkable degradation over several years of tests with KOMPSAT and KOMPSAT-2, for both uplink and playback downlink in the elevation angle above $10^{\circ}$.

In this paper, we designed a downconverter for K-band satellite multipoint distribution service(SMDS). The designed downconverter consists of a low noise amplifiers, bandpass filter, stable local oscillator, drain mixer and If Amplifiers. Low noise amplifiers show 28㏈ gain and 1.5㏈ noise figure in the frequency range of 19.2㎓~20.2㎓, and a band pass filter has a -l㏈ insertion loss, and 18.25㎓ Stable local oscillator which is dielectric resonant oscillation, We obtained that the output power of the 18.25㎓ oscillation frequency is 0.5㏈m and the phase noise is the -84.67㏈c at 10KHz offset frequency. With the input RF signal the 19.2㎓~20.2㎓, conversion gain of the drain mixer shows 5㏈ at the Intermediate frequency range of 950MHz~1950MHz. We have proved that the designed downconverter satisfied the specification of a K-band satellite multipoint distribution service and it can be applied to the satellite internet receiver.

A complex bandpass sampling technique can provide a more flexible architecture for designing a software- defined radio(SDR) system, because it has several advantageous features of larger sampling range and lower minimum sampling frequency than a real bandpass sampling method. In spite of the potential advantages of the complex bandpass sampling, solid investigation for the direct downconversion of multiple signals by the complex sampling theory has not been reported yet. Thus, we propose in this paper a novel scheme for the downconversion of multiple signals using the complex bandpass sampling, and develop the formulae related to the complex bandpass sampling for practical usage, such as the valid sampling range, the intermediate frequency (If), and the minimum sampling frequency of the downconversion of multiple RE signals. Such derived formulae are verified from simulations.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid two-stage AWG-based WDM-PON architecture in order to overcome the limitations of the existing PONs and single AWG-based WDM-PONs as well as to accomodate the new services and the expandability of network. The proposed architecture employs two-stage AWG for downstream transmission and single AWG and combiners for upstream one at RN. It also employs the separated fiber with multi-wavelength for both direction. It leads to high scalability, low cost, and high capacity for transmission. In downstream transmission, the transparency can be guaranteed since the traffic is transmitted to ONU through each channel. However, several ONUs share the channel for upstream one by using WDM/TDMA scheme because the asymmetrical feature of networks is considered. The performance of the proposed one is evaluated and compared with other architectures in terms of cost, network capacity and up/downstream bandwidth.

In this paper, a Multi-Band Ku-band down converter was designed for reception of multi-band digital satellite broadcasting. The Multi-band low-nose down converter was designed to form four local oscillator frequencies (9.75, 10, 10.75 and 11.3GHz) representing a low phase noise due to VCO-PLL with respect to input signals of 10.7 to 12.75GHz and 3-stage low noise amplifier circuit by broadband noise matching, and to select an one band of intermediate frequency (IF) channels by digital control. The developed low-noise downconverter exhibited the full conversion gain of 64dB, and the noise figure of low-noise amplifier was 0.7dB, the P1dB of output signal 15dBm, and the phase noise -73dBc@100Hz at the band 1 carrier frequency of 9.75GHz. The low noise block downconverter (LNB) for receiving four-band digital satellite broadcasting designed in this paper can be used for satellite broadcasting of vessels navigating international waters.
