  • This study aims to analyze the mixing characteristics of hydrogen considered as a new fuel for internal combustion engines. As the physical property of helium gas is similar to that of hydrogen, helium gas was used in this study. To analyze the steady and unsteady behavior of jet, helium gas was injected into the stationary atmosphere at the normal temperature and pressure. Concentration of helium gas in the center of jet flow is in inverse proportion with axial distance from the nozzle tip. This agrees with the free jet theory of Schlichting. The relative equation for dimensionless concentration to radial/axial distance the axial distance of potential core region, the cone angle a of the jet flow and the relative equation for arriving distance of the front of jet flow to the lapse of time are obtained. But free jet theory of Schlichting in the dimensionless concentration is not in agreement with the present experimental results of the distance of the radial direction. It needs more study. When the arrival frequency of jet flow is used as a parameter, the transition area changing from unsteady flow area into steady flow area becomes gradually wider downstream, but its ratio for the whole unsteady flow area gradually decreases.

  • In this paper, we derive analytical expressions for the exact pairwise error probability (PEP) of a space-time coded system operating over spatially correlated fast (constant over the duration of a symbol) and slow (constant over the length of a code word) fad­ing channels using a moment-generating function-based approach. We discuss two analytical techniques that can be used to evaluate the exact-PEPs (and therefore, approximate the average bit error probability (BEP)) in closed form. These analytical expressions are more realistic than previously published PEP expressions as they fully account for antenna spacing, antenna geometries (uniform linear array, uniform grid array, uniform circular array, etc.) and scattering models (uniform, Gaussian, Laplacian, Von-mises, etc.). Inclusion of spatial information in these expressions provides valuable insights into the physical factors determining the performance of a space-time code. Using these new PEP expressions, we investigate the effect of antenna spacing, antenna geometries and azimuth power distribution parameters (angle of arrival/departure and angular spread) on the performance of a four-state QPSK space-time trellis code proposed by Tarokh et al. for two transmit antennas.

  • Most research on the estimation of direction of arrival has been accomplished based on the assumption that the signal sources are point sources. In some real surroundings, signal source localization can more adequately be accomplished with distributed source models. When the signal sources are distributed over an area, we cannot directly use well-known DOA estimation methods, In this paper, we represent an source by the center angle and degree of dispersion. Then, we address the estimation of the elevation and azimuth angles of distributed sources based on the parametric distributed source modeling in the 3-dimensional space.

  • In cognitive radio networks, acquiring the position information of the primary user is critical to the communication of the secondary user. Localization of primary users can help improve the efficiency with which the spectrum is reused, because the information can be used to avoid harmful interference to the network while simultaneity is exploited to improve the spectrum utilization. Despite its inherent inaccuracy, received signal strength based on range has been used as the standard tool for distance measurements in the location detection process. Most previous works have employed the path-loss propagation model with a fixed value of the path loss exponent. However, in actual environments, the path loss exponent for each channel is different. Moreover, due to the complexity of the radio channel, when the number of channel increases, a larger number of RSS measurements are needed, and this results in additional energy consumption. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose using the Bayesian compressive sensing method with a calibrated path loss exponent to improve the performance of the PU localization method.

  • This paper proposes a new online calibration algorithm for the array antenna system. As you know, the several previous calibration methods for the mutual coupling did not estimate but measure mutual coupling effect at the real or test-bed system directly. Therefore we suggest some idea to compensate the calibration errors due to mutual coupling effect and mismatch in cables and electronic modules without the off-line calibration. In this work, we can calibrate the array antenna system under the operation of the system using Independent Component Analysis(ICA). This is what is called an online calibration. As you know, the ICA method has permutation and scaling problems. However, we solve problems of the ICA method and apply it to the calibration of an array antenna. The method simultaneously estimates the DOA(Direction of Arrival) of the signals, and calibrates the array for that specific angle. The proposed algorithm is evaluated by computer simulation and its behavior is illustrated by a numerical example.

  • The problem for parameters estimation of the received signals impinging on array sensors has long been of great research interest in a great variety of applications, such as radar, sonar, and land mobile communications systems. Conventional subspace-based algorithms, such as MUSIC and ESPRIT, require an extensive computation of inverse matrix and eigen-decomposition. In this paper, we propose a new parameters estimation algorithm via nonlinear minimization, which is simplified computationally and estimates signal parameters simultaneously.

  • Laser communication has been considered as a novel method for earth observation satellites with generation of high data volume. It offers faster data transmission speeds compared to conventional radio frequency (RF) communication due to the short wavelength and narrow beam divergence. However, laser beams are refracted due to atmospheric turbulence between the ground and the satellite. Refracted laser beams, upon reaching the receiver, result in angle-of-arrival (AoA) fluctuation, inducing image dancing and wavefront distortion. These phenomena hinder signal acquisition and lead to signal loss in the course of laser communication. So, precise alignment between the transmitter and receiver is essential to guarantee effective and reliable laser communication, which is achieved by pointing, acquisition, and tracking (PAT) system. In this study, we simulate the effectiveness of tip/tilt compensation for more efficient laser communication in the satellite-ground downlink. By compensating for low-order terms using tip/tilt mirror, we verify the alleviation of AoA fluctuations under both weak and strong atmospheric turbulence conditions. And the performance of tip/tilt correction is analyzed in terms of the AoA fluctuation and collected power on the detector.

  • The Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) system based on the adaptive beamformer, comprised of the AOA estimator followed by the interference canceller, is a cutting edge technology for collecting various signal information utilizing all sorts of devices such as the radar and satellite. In this paper, we present the efficient adaptive SIGINT structure consisted of an AOA estimator and an adaptive beamformer. For estimating AOA information of various signals, we employ the Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm and for efficiently suppressing high-power interference signals, we employ the Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR) algorithm. Also, we provide computer simulation examples to verify the performance of the presented adaptive beamformer structure.

  • 126-kHz bistatic sea surface scattering measurements were conducted in the shallow waters off the east coasts of Korea. The range from source to receiver was altered to change the scattering angle at the grazing angles of 38% and 52% . Unlike bottom scattering signal, the arrival time and the amplitude of sea surface scattering signals were varied due to the fluctuation of sea surface. The measured forward scattering strengths were compared to model predictions of Kirchhoff approximation and small slope approximation. In overall, the tendency of the scattering strengths showed reasonable agreement among the experimental data, Kirchhoff approximation, and small slope approximation.
