We proposed a digital watermarking method that it is possible to identify the copyright because the watermark is detected in the first print-scan and to protect a forgery because the watermark is not detected in the second print-scan. The proposed algorithm uses LPM and DFT transform for the robustness to the distortion of pixel value and geometrical distortion. This methods could improve watermark detection performance and image quality by selecting maximum sampling radius in LPM transform. After analyzing the characteristics of print-scan process, we inserted the watermark in the experimentally selected frequency bands that survives robustly to the first print-scan and is not detected in the second print-scan, using the characteristic of relatively large distortion in high frequency bands of DFT As the experimental result, the original proof is possible because average similarity degree 5.13 is more than the critical value 4.0 in the first print-scan. And the detection of forgery image is also possible because average similarity degree 2.76 is less than the critical value 4.0 in the second print-scan.

In this paper, we design a digitally pre-distorted RF power amplifier operating in 900 MHz band. The linearity of RF power amplifier is improved by employing the digital pre-distortion(DPD) based on affine projection(AP) algorithm, where the look-up table(LUT) method is used with non-linear indexing. The proposed DPD with AP algorithm is compared with that with normalized least mean square(NLMS) algorithm, applied to the RF power amplifier. A commercial power amplifier module is used for verification of the proposed algorithm which shows improvement of adjacent channel leakage ratio(ACLR) by about 21 dB.

The detection of foreground objects in a projection display using color information can be hard due to changing lighting conditions and complex backgrounds. Accordingly, the current paper proposes a foreground object detection method using color information that is obtained from the input image to the Projector and an image captured by a camera above the projection display. After pixel correspondences between the two images are found by calibrating the geometry distortion and color distortion, the natural color variations are estimated for the projection display. Then, any pixel that has another variation not resulting from natural geometry or color distortion is considered a part of foreground objects, because a foreground object in a projection display changes the values of pixels. As shown by experimental results, the proposed foreground detection method is applicable to an interactive projection display system such as the DigitalDesk

By wireless transmission data, there is high possibility to get distortion and lose by noise and barrier on wireless. If the data check damaged and lost at receiver, can't make it clear and can't judge whether this data is right or not. Therefore, by wireless transmission data need the data error check algorithm in order to decrease the data's distortion and lose and to monitoring the transmission data as real time. This study consists of RF station for wireless transmission, Water Level Meter station for water level measurement and Error check algorithm for error check of transmission data. This study is also that investigation and search for error check algorithm in order to wireless digital data transmission in condition of the least data's damage and lose. Designed transmitter and receiver with one - chip micro process to protect to swell the volume of circuit. Had designed RF transmitter - receiver station simply by means of ATMEL one - chip micro process in the systems. Used 10mW of the best RF power and 448MHz-449MHz on frequency band which can get permission to use by Frequency Law made by Korean government

The lens distortion in the machine vision system is inevitable phenomenon. Distortion is getting worse, due to the selection of lens in the trend of reducing prices and size of the system. In this trend, the distortion correction becomes more important. But, the traditional correction methods has problems, such as complexity and requiring more operations. Effective distorted digital image correction is the precondition of target detection and recognition based on vision inspection. To overcome the disadvantage of traditional distortion correction algorithms, such as complex modeling, massive computation and marginal information loss, an image distortion correction algorithm based on photogrammetry method is proposed in this paper. In our method, we use the lattice image as the measurement target. Through the experimental results, we could find that we can reduce the processing time by 4ms. And also the inspection failure rate of our method was reduced by 2.3% than human-eyes inspection method.

In this letter, we present a new linearization method for a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO)-based quantizer in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The nonlinearity of the VCO generates unwanted harmonic spurs and reduces the signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SNDR) of the VCO-based quantizer. This letter suggests a frequency-to-current feedback method to effectively suppress harmonic distortion. The proposed method decreases the harmonic spurs by more than 53 dB. And a VCO-based quantizer employing the proposed linearization method achieves a high SNDR of 74.1 dB.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)의 단점인 높은 PAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio)을 개선하기 위한 방법 중에서 SDT(Signal Distortion Technique)는 전송시스템의 규격 및 수신기의 변경 없이도 적용 가능한 이점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 SDT에 속하는 clipping과 peak windowing 기법을 Eureka 147 DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) 시스템에 적용하여 얻은 BER 및 PSD 성능결과를 토대로 PAPR 개선 정도에 따른 시스템의 요구 $Es/N_0$ 및 out-of-band의 PSD 열화 정도를 분석하였다. Hamming windowing을 적용한 경우, PAPR 4㏈에서 clipping에 비해 요구 $Es/N_0$는 비슷한 열화정도가 나타났으나, out-of-band의 PSD는 5dB 정도 개선되는 성능을 보였다.

Many kinds of map projection have been used, since this cannot be done without a distortion and seemless representation of the globe. To overcome the continues representation of large digital terrain information by the global coordinate system , to find out the sources of projection error and optimizing method, and to increase the map accuracy, specific map projection researches are needed. In this study, improvements of map projections are suggested for small scale mapping which covering entire Korean peninsula based on theoretical evaluation and limits of current map projection. Furthermore, distortion factors, positional errors, and accuracy increasing method are evaluated.

When digital image signals are transmitted or stored, they may be usually degraded by impulsive noise such as BSC noise. Though median filtering is a very effective method to reduce the impulsive noise, it brings non-negligible distortion after filtering. Several algorithms have been proposed to reduce such a distortion, but their reconstructed image quality are inadequate in some cases and they have a difficulty in real-time processing. In this paper, an effective filtering algorithm which can not only reduce the noise effectively but also preserve the edges well and lessen the distortion greatly, is presented. The proposed algorithm is an adaptive algorithm of median filter using local statistics, based on the characteristics of human eyes. The adaptive algorithm results shwo performance improvement of up to 3-4 dB over the nonadaptive one.

The accurate analysis of the outside sky conditions is necessary to increase the efficiency of blind PV system. To conduct the accurate analysis, this paper suggested a method to analyze the sky condition using a specific image processing technique. While a fisheye lens has a wide field-of-views, it causes a large distortion to the sky images. Therefore, this paper calculated the exchange ratio of sky images to consider a lens distortion. As results of the study, there was a difference of 7% to cloud area ratio F4 and F11. Also, it had a different result depending on the position of the cloud.
