Spatial audio coding (SAC) is an extremely high compact representation of encoded multi-channel audio material. This paper suggests a multi-channel audio service in the terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB) system using a novel SAC tool, which is called a virtual source location information (VSLI)-based SAC tool. Intensive experiments are presented to evaluate the validity of the proposed VSLI-based SAC tool, and prototypical systems are also presented to demonstrate the reliability of the proposed multi-channel T-DMB system in real applications.

In this paper, we developed a multichannel acupuncture point balance measurement system that measures skin resistances at various acupuncture points to evaluate the balancing state of the meridian. The system consists of 16 channel resistance-voltage converter, signal processing part for signal amplification and filtering, A/D conversion part, micro-controller part, and data processing part. Compared to the previously developed 1 channel or 4 channel systems, it is found that the 16 channel system can measure the skin resistances of 16 acupuncture points, simultaneously, providing various clinical information such as balance and variation of the resistance value.

In this paper, the performance of the W-CDMA system with smart antenna is investigated. The realistic wideband channel is assumed, one of which is JTC(Joint Technique Committee) channel model. It is also assumed that multipaths are clustered. The beamforming-RAKE receiver structure of W-CDMA system is proposed, whose performance is analyzed on the assumption of perfect channel estimation. The probability density function (pdf) of SINR(Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio) for different number of antennas and users is presented, and the BER(Bit Error Rate) is presented based on that. As a result, the performance of the W-CDMA system with smart antenna in the realistic wideband channel has been considerably improved.

In order to solve power disturbances, power components measurement for both supply and demand side of power system must be implemented. This paper proposed a DSP (Digital Signal Processor)-based multi-channel (voltage 8-channel and current 10-channel) power components measurement system that simultaneously can measure and analyze power components for both supply md demand side. After voltage and current measurement accuracy revision using YOKOGAWA 2558, the developed system was tested in the field.

This paper presents and analyses the closed-form expression of the average bit error rate (BER) for an asynchronous direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system with coherent binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation scheme using a maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity over a Rician fading channel. In addition to the average BER, outage probability, and user capacity of system are estimated as performance measures. The results are general enough so that it includes Rayleigh fading and nonfading channel with zero and infinite Rician factor, respectively, as special cases. The effects of various channel models, processing gains, and diversity orders on the system performances are also considered for the typical multipath delay profiles characterized by Rician fading channel.

In this paper, the performances of a single-user DS-UWB system applying two simple proposed channel estimation schemes are introduced, according to the newly updated DS-UWB PHY Layer standard from IEEE P802.15.3a. The performances of error control coding, different combining schemes in selective Rake receiver for DS-UWB system are analyzed. Both of the two channel estimation schemes using data-independent structure work well in DS-UWB system with few pilot bits. For the purpose of channel estimation and reduces the number of pilot bits, we apply a pilot symbol spreaded with $2{^8}-1\;or\;2{^9}-1$ periods of m-sequence for different channel estimation schemes.

The polyphase filter-based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (PF-OFDM) is proposed in [1]. It provides more efficient data transmission mechanism than the classical OFDM method. However, the channel estimation mechanism in the classical OFDM system such as the cyclic prefix can not be applied straightforwardly, since the received signal contains unpredictable terms. Therefore, the PF-OFDM system requires a complicated channel estimation scheme when it works on the multipath fading communication channel. In this paper, we proposed a pilot-symbol aided channel estimation algorithm suitable for the PF-OFDM system which efficiently deals with the unpredictable terms and verified its performance through a series of computer simulations.

In this paper the reverse link of the GLOBALSTAR-the representative CDMA LEO satellite system and LEO mobile satellite channel are developed by the SPW software simulation tool. And the performance of the system is evaluated. GLOBALSTAR is designed to give cellular-type service to hand-held user terminals through a constellation of 48 LEO satellites in circular orbites with 1414 Km altitude. Since LEO mobile satellite system communicates with mobile unit, it is suffered from severe multipath fading and shadowing. The fast mobility of LEO satellites makes the channel condition time vering. So, the LEO mobile satellite channel is different from land mobile channels. In this unique LEO satellite channel, it is shown that the performance of the GLOBALSTAR reverse link is varied according to the elevational angle, but this variation is overcome by satellite path diversity.

In recent years, there are growing concerns about land mobile satellite (LMS) communication systems and mobile stratospheric communication systems (SCS) for the purpose of service upgrade of personal and mobile communications in near future. It is important to possess accurate channel model for prediction of the above system performance. Thus, in this paper, we evaluate the bit error rates of a coded BPSK system based on realistic channel model which can be applied to stratospheric communication systems. The channel data was made by fitting the parameters of probability distribution model to measured data. This approach was proposed by Corraza〔1〕and modified by You〔2〕. And also the effects of channel codings on the system performance are analyzed. As results, we can get the performance curve characteristics on realistic Rician log-normal fading channels with various communication environments.

In this paper, we perform a performance analysis of serial acquisition scheme using AWGN rejection filter in Rayleigh fading channel and propose robust acquisition scheme using Reference filter, which is utilized to vary threshold at fading rate, in Rayleigh fading channel. AWGN rejection filter is utilized to evaluate running average for compensating channel gain. The JAKE model, which a channel model, is used for the analysis. The simulation result shows that the mean acquisition time of the proposed acquisition system is minimized than acquisition system using AWGN rejection filter and serial-search acquisition system.
