모노펄스 레이다용 다채널 집적 수신기 내에 존재하는 채널 간 간섭은 최근 수신기의 소형화 추세에 따라 그 영향성이 늘어날 것으로 예상된다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 모노펄스 레이다에 적용되는 다채널 집적 수신기의 수신 채널간 간섭을 보정하여, 표적 각도 검출 성능 왜곡을 배제할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 스위치, 방향성 결합기, 정합 부하, ADC(Analog to Digital Converter), 채널 보정 신호원 등을 이용하여 보정 하드웨어 구성을 제안하였다. 또한, 스위치와 보정 신호원을 제어하여 총 9개의 산란 파라미터를 획득하고, 안테나로부터 출력되는 모노펄스 신호와 채널 간 간섭이 존재하는 상태에서의 다채널 수신기를 통과한 모노펄스 신호 간의 수학적 관계를 이용하여 왜곡되지 않는 모노펄스 신호를 복원하는 방법을 제안하였다.

In this paper, we investigate array calibration algorithms to derive a further improved version for correcting antenna array errors and RF transceiver errors in CDMA smart antenna systems. The structure of a multi-channel RF transceiver with a digital calibration apparatus and its calibration techniques are presented, where we propose a new RF receiver calibration scheme to minimize interference of the calibration signal on the user signals. The calibration signal is injected into a multi-channel receiver through a calibration signal injector whose array response vector is controlled in order to have a low correlation with the antenna response vector of the receive signals. We suggest a model-based antenna array calibration to remove the antenna array errors including mutual coupling errors or to predict the element patterns from the array manifold measured at a small number of angles. Computer simulations and experiment results are shown to verify the calibration algorithms.

천리안위성 기상탑재체 적외채널의 복사보정에서는 기본 복사보정식을 기반으로 다섯 개의 알고리즘이 추가되어 있다. 일반적으로 기하보정은 복사보정 이후 수행하므로, 복사보정 완료시각은 기하보정 처리의 시작시각을 결정한다. 본 논문에서는 기하보정 처리의 시작시각을 앞당기는 방법을 제안하기 위해서, 기본 복사보정 및 정밀 복사보정(기본 복사보정에 다섯 개의 알고리즘 추가) 결과를 입력으로 수행한 기하보정 처리의 정확도를 비교 분석한 내용을 정리하였다. 처리 속도가 빠른 기본 복사보정의 결과와 정확한 복사보정 값을 포함하는 정밀복사보정의 결과를 입력으로 각각의 기하보정 처리의 정확도를 분석하는 실험을 수행하였고, 두 경우 모두 기하보정 정확도 요구사항을 만족시킴을 검증하였다. 따라서 기하보정 처리 속도를 향상시키기 위해서, 기본 복사보정식으로 생성된 결과를 기하보정 처리의 입력으로 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this study, we propose the calibration algorithm for the solar channel (550 ${\sim}$ 900 nm) of MTSAT 1R which is the Japanese geostationary satellite launched on 26 Feb. 2005 and located at $140^{\circ}E$. We developed a method utilizing MODIS-derived BRDFs for the solar channel calibration over the bright desert area. Targets are selected based on the desert's brightness, spatial uniformity, temporal stability and spectral stability. The 6S model has been incorporated to account for directional effects of the surface using MODIS-derived BRDF parameters within the spectral interval in interest. Results based on the analysis for the period from November 2007 to June 2008 suggest that MTSAT-1R solar channel measurements have a low bias within 5%.

Five-port reflectometer which consists of a ring with 5 arms (two inputs, three outputs) and three RF power detectors has been used as a vector network analyser, a demodulator in the homodyne receiver as well as in Phase Looked Loop (PLL) and so on. Calibration of five-port reflectometer is an important task. In this paper, we present a calibration method of five-port for a propagation channel sounder. The method is based on measurement of the phase differences between the three voltages at the five-port's outputs in order to determine the ratio of two input incident waves. The frequency channel sounder based on five-port is calibrated for each frequency from 2.2 GHz to 2.6 GHz with 1 MHz step. This method can also determine the absolute delays of each propagation path in the propagation channel. The calibration method is validated using measurement data.

Research on calibration of array antenna has become a hot spot in the area of signal processing and it is necessary to obtain the phase mismatch of each antenna channel. This paper presents a new calibration method for an array antenna system. In order to calibrate the phase mismatch of each antenna channel, we used primary synchronization signal (PSS) which exists in LTE downlink frame. Primary synchronization signal (PSS) is based on a Zadoff-Chu sequence which has a good correlation characteristic. By using correlation calculation, we can extract primary synchronization signal (PSS). After extracting primary synchronization signal (PSS), we use it to calibrate and reduce the phase errors of each antenna channel. In order to verify the new array antenna calibration algorithm which is proposed in this paper, we have simulated the proposed algorithm by using MATLAB. The array antenna system consists of two antenna elements. The phase mismatch of first antenna and second antenna is calculated accurately by proposed algorithm in the experiment test. Theory analysis and MATLAB simulation results are shown to verify the calibration algorithm.

This paper presents a novel calibration method for a base station system adopting an antenna array. The proposed technique utilizes Zadoff-Chu sequence, which is included in the LTE pilot signal periodically, in order to compute the phase characteristic of each antenna channel. As the Zadoff-Chu sequence exhibits an excellent autocorrelation characteristic, it is possible for the receiving base station to retrieve the Zadoff-Chu sequence transmitted from each mobile terminal. In addition, we can obtain the phase characteristic of each antenna channel, which is the ultimate goal of the calibration procedure. The proposed calibration algorithm has been implemented using an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). We have applied the proposed algorithm to an array consisting of 2 antenna elements for simplicity. the phase value implied to the first and second antenna path is very accurately calculated from the proposed procedure. From the experimental test, the proposed method provides accurate calibration results.

The Korean Geostationary satellite (COMS) to fly in year 2009 will carry a meteorological sensor from which visible channel measurements will be available. We developed a method utilizing satellite-derived BRDFs for the solar channel calibration over the bright desert area. The 6S model has been incorporated to account for directional effects of the surface using MODIS-derived BRDF parameters within the spectral interval in interest. Simulated radiances over the desert targets were compared with MODIS and SeaWiFS measured spectral radiances in order to examine the feasibility of the developed calibration algorithm. We also simulated TOA radiance over ocean targets to verify the consistency and reliability of the result. It was shown that simulated 16-day averaged radiances are in good agreement with the satellite-measured radiances within about ${\pm}5%$ uncertainty range for the year 2005, suggesting that the developed algorithm can be used for calibrating the COMS visible channel within about 5% uncertainty level.
