Energy detection is a widely used method for spectrum sensing in cognitive radios due to its simplicity and accuracy. However, it is severely affected by the noise uncertainty. To solve this problem, a blind multiband spectrum sensing scheme which is robust to noise uncertainty is proposed in this paper. The proposed scheme performs spectrum sensing over the total frequency channels simultaneously rather than a single channel each time. To improve the detection performance, the proposal jointly utilizes the likelihood function combined with Gerschgorin radii of unitary transformed covariance matrix. Unlike the conventional sensing methods, our scheme does not need any prior knowledge of noise power or PU signals, and thus is suitable for blind spectrum sensing. In addition, no subjective decision threshold setting is required in our scheme, making it robust to noise uncertainty. Finally, numerical results based on the probability of detection and false alarm versus SNR or the number of samples are presented to validate the performance of the proposed scheme.

조간대의 조류로 발달은 조간대 퇴적물종류, 입도, 조성 및 조류의 세기 등 에 많은 영향을 받는다. 따라서 조류로의 발달 특성, 밀도, 형태 등은 조간대의 특징을 분석하는데 활용될 수 있다. 그러나 아직 갯벌의 조류로에 대한 정량적 분석은 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 조류로의 정량적 분류기준으로 프랙탈 분석방법을 제시하고, 발달 정도가 다른 두 지역의 조류로에 대한 적용결과에 대한 정량적 비교를 제시한다. 시험 적용지역인 강화도 남단 조간대에서 얻어진 IKONOS 영상으로부터 조류로를 추출한 뒤, 프랙탈 분석방법 중 2차원 분석에 많이 사용되는 box counting 방법을 적용하여 프랙탈 차원을 구하였다. 분석 결과 강화도 남단 전체 조간대 지역에 대한 프랙탈 차원 값은 약 1.31로 나타났다. 조류로의 지선이 단순하며 남북으로 수직방향으로 발달한 지역은 프랙탈 차원 값이 $1.0563\sim1.0672$로 비교적 적은 값을 나타내는 반면, 조류로의 지선이 발달하고 매우 복잡한 형태를 보이는 곳은 프랙탈 차원 값이 $1.2550\sim1.3016$로 나타났다. 즉, 조류로의 발달정도에 따라 프랙탈 차원 값이 약 0.2 정도로 매우 뚜렷한 차이를 나타내며, 따라서 조류로의 정량적 구분이 프랙탈 분석에 의하여 가능하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있다. 향후 다른 특성을 갖는 다양한 조간대 지역에 적용하면 조류로의 발달정도와 환경 인자에 대한 정량적 분석이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Cognitive networks (CNs) are capable of enabling dynamic spectrum allocation, and thus constitute a promising technology for future wireless communication. Whereas, the implementation of CN will lead to the requirement of an increased energy-arrival rate, which is a significant parameter in energy harvesting design of a cognitive user (CU) device. A well-designed spectrum-sensing scheme will lower the energy-arrival rate that is required and enable CNs to self-sustain, which will also help alleviate global warming. In this paper, spectrum sensing in a multi-user cognitive ad hoc network with a wide-band spectrum is considered. Based on the prospective spectrum sensing, we classify CN operation into two modes: Distributed and centralized. In a distributed network, each CU conducts spectrum sensing for its own data transmission, while in a centralized network, there is only one cognitive cluster header which performs spectrum sensing and broadcasts its sensing results to other CUs. Thus, a wide-band spectrum that is divided into multiple sub-channels can be sensed simultaneously in a distributed manner or sequentially in a centralized manner. We consider the energy consumption for spectrum sensing only of an analog-to-digital convertor (ADC). By formulating energy consumption for spectrum sensing in terms of the sub-channel sampling rate and whole-band sensing time, the sampling rate and whole-band sensing time that are optimal for minimizing the total energy consumption within sensing reliability constraints are obtained. A power dissipation model of an ADC, which plays an important role in formulating the energy efficiency problem, is presented. Using AD9051 as an ADC example, our numerical results show that the optimal sensing parameters will achieve a reduction in the energy-arrival rate of up to 97.7% and 50% in a distributed and a centralized network, respectively, when comparing the optimal and worst-case energy consumption for given system settings.

We present a design study for a remote sensing camera system which can be operated in multi-channel mode simultaneously with several bandpass filters. The camera control electronics is based on the multiplexed driving concept, which can provide a variety of flexibility for system control parameters and its individual optimisation. The design can also be applied to any system with linear sensors or frame sensors according to its functional requirements. The system design parameters have been examined, including modification of driving waveforms for different types of sensors, waveforms for low-nosie readout circuit in analog chain, and synchronisation with other signal processing.

Cognitive Radio는 유휴 스펙트럼을 찾아 환경에 맞는 통신방식과 주파수 대역폭을 능동적으로 판단해 재활용하는 지능적인 간섭회피로 방식으로 스펙트럼을 공유하여 전파자원효율을 극대화 하는 기술이다. 기존의 협력 스펙트럼 센싱은 협력하는 사용자들의 채널 상태만을 고려하여 임계치를 정하고 있으며, 모두 같은 고정된 오경보 확률을 적용하여 센싱하게 된다. 오경보 확률은 오류 검출과 관계가 있으며, 고정된 오경보 확률은 검출확률의 감소의 문제를 가진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 CR사용자의 채널상태를 고려할 뿐만 아니라 채널 상태에 따른 다른 오경보 확률을 차등 적용하여 협력 스펙트럼 센싱을 하는 시스템 모델을 제안하고 분석한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 검출확률 향상을 보인다.

제안하는 프로토콜은 기존의 검출 기법에 비해 더 높은 성능을 얻을 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 검출 결과의 수를 줄임으로서 네트워크 자원을 절약할 수 있다. 레일리 페이딩 채널 상에서 협력 스펙트럼 검출은 많은 수의 2차 사용자를 필요로 한다. 이러한 2차 사용자들은 1차 사용자의 신호를 검출한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 협력 스펙트럼 검출은 가장 높은 전력의 1차 사용자 신호를 수신한 단 하나의 2차 사용자만이 검출 결과를 전송하고 나머지 2차 사용자들은 중계기로서 공동 수신단으로 전송을 돕는 역할을 한다.

Multi-Spectral Camera(MSC) is a main payload on the KOMPSAT-2 satellite to perform the earth remote sensing. The MSC instrument has one(1) channel for panchromatic imaging and four(4) channel for multi-spectral imaging covering the spectral range from 450nm to 900nm using TDI CCD Focal Plane Array (FPA). The compression method on KOMPSAT-2 MSC was selected and used to match EOS input rate and PDTS output data rate on MSC image data chain. At once the MSC performance was carefully handled to minimize any degradation so that it was analyzed and restored in KGS(KOMPSAT Ground Station) during LEOP and Cal./Val.(Calibration and Validation) phase. In this paper, on-orbit image data chain in MSC and image data processing on KGS including general MSC description is briefly described. The influences on image performance between on-board compression algorithms and between performance restoration methods in ground station are analyzed and discussed.

Through the ISODATA method, the micro-landform of Julpo-Bay tidal flat was classified into mudflat, mixedflat, and sandflat using Landsat TM image. Each showed an apparent differences in its topographical characteristics and grain size composition. For example, mudflats are formed with flat faces and tidal channel of dissected gully. Its characteristics of grain size analysis that the grains have less than mean grain size 4 phi. Its sorting is bad (higher than 1 S.D.), and it showed strongly positive skewness. But sandflat is topographically flat without tidal channel. It has developed with ripple marks. According to the grain size analysis of deposits, the soil is coarse size with 90% of sand and its sorting is well(lower than 1 S.D.) Also, it showed strongly negative skewness. Mixed flat is in between mudflat and sandflat in its characteristics.

The cognitive ultra-wideband (UWB) network detects interfering narrowband systems and adapts its configuration accordingly. An inherently adaptive and flexible candidate for cognitive UWB transmission is the wavelet packet multicarrier modulation (WPMCM). In this letter, we use an enhanced forward consecutive mean excision thresholding algorithm to tackle the noise uncertainty in the wavelet-based sensing of WPMCM systems, and mathematical analysis is performed for primary user channel fading. As a benchmark, we compare the proposed system with a conventional fast Fourier transformation-based system, and performance investigation proves significant improvements when primary and secondary links are subjected to multipath fading and noise.

A typhoon center location and its intensity from the 54.96GMz channel of Microwave Sounding Unit(MSU) on board the NOAA satellite is analyzed. NOAA satellite MSU channel 3 data may delineate the development and dissipation of the upper tropospheric warm core associated with a typhoon. The typhoon warm core is related to microwave imagery of 250hPa temperature field (54.96GMz). The typhoon center intensity, surface center pressure and maximum wind speed at the eye well, correlate to horozontal Laplacian of an upper tropospheric temperature field. The typhoon center is found from the analysis of 250hPa temperature field. The excellent correlation is found between the horizontal Laplacian of an tropospheric temperature field and surface maximum wind speed, another correlation is found between the warm temperature anomaly and surface pressure anomaly.
