We have proposed and experimentally verified a pulse-width modulation (PWM) generator which directly generated a PWM signal in the optical domain. Output waveforms were clear at the repetition rate of 16 MHz; the duty cycle (DC) was from 14.7% to 72.1%; and the DC-control resolution was about 4.399%/dB. The PWM generator' operation principle is based on the injection-locking property of a single-mode Fabry-$P{\acute{e}}rot$ laser diode (SMFP-LD). The SMFP-LD, which has a self-locked mode wavelength at ${\lambda}_{PWM}$, was used to detect the power of the injection-locking signal (optical analog input). If the analog input power is high, the SMFP-LD is locked to the wavelength of the input signal ${\lambda}_a$ and there is no output after an optical bandpass filter (OBF). If the analog input power is low, the SMFP-LD is unlocked and there is output signal at ${\lambda}_{PWM}$ after the OBF. Thus, the SMFP-LD plus the OBF provide digital output for an analog input. The DC of the output PWM signal can be controlled by tuning the power of the analog input.

In this paper, we proposed a new wavelet-based image fusion algorithm, which has advantages in both frequency and spatial domains for signal analysis. The developed algorithm compares the ratio of SAR image signal to optical image signal and assigns the SAR image signal to the fused image if the ratio is larger than a predefined threshold value. If the ratio is smaller than the threshold value, the fused image signal is determined by a weighted sum of optical and SAR image signal. The fusion rules consider the ratio of SAR image signal to optical image signal, image gradient and local variance of each image signal. We evaluated the proposed algorithm using Ikonos and TerraSAR-X satellite images. The proposed method showed better performance than the conventional methods which take only relatively strong SAR image signals in the fused image, in terms of entropy, image clarity, spatial frequency and speckle index.

This paper designs a software signal generator for the new GPS L2 civil signal. The CM/CL code and the message structure of L2CS described in GPS ICD PPIRN-200C-007 are used in designing the signal generator. The output of the GPS signal generator is designed as the sampled IF data with the sampling frequency 5.7MHz and stored in the binary data format. By analyzing both the spectrum characteristics of the output signal and the correlation properties of the CM/CL code, the validation of the designed GPS signal generator is shown. It should be mentioned that the modeling of the GPS satellite constellation and the error sources remains for implementing the software space segment of GPS.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) provides more accurate positioning estimation performance by processing L1 and L2 signals simultaneously through dual frequency signal processing technology at the L-band rather than using only L1 signal. However, if anti-spoofing (AS) mode is run at the GPS, the precision (P) code in L2 signal is encrypted to Y code (or P(Y) code). Thus, dual frequency signal processing can be done only when the effect of P(Y) code is eliminated through the L2 signal processing technology. To do this, a codeless technique or semi-codeless technique that can acquire phase measurement information of L2 signal without information about W code should be employed. In this regard, this paper implements L2 signal processing technology where two typical codeless techniques and four typical semi-codeless techniques of previous studies are applied and compares their performances to discuss the optimal technique selection according to implementation environments and constraints.

This paper describes an ECG signal labeling algorithm based on fuzzy clustering, which is very useful to the automated ECG diagnosis. The existing labeling methods compares the crosscorrelations of each wave form using IF-THEN binary logic, which tends to recognize the same wave forms such as different things when the wave forms have a little morphological variation. To prevent this error, we have proposed as ECG signal labeling algorithm using fuzzy clustering. The center and the membership function of a cluster is calculated by a cluster validity function. The dominant cluster type is determined by RR interval, and the representative beat of each cluster is determined by MF (Membership Function). The problem of IF-THEN binary logic is solved by FCM (Fuzzy C-Means). The MF and the result of FCM can be effectively used in the automated fuzzy inference -ECG diagnosis.

Instantaneous frequency(IF) has important physical meaning for nonstationary signal. Motor current is well known that to be a nonstationary signal whose properties vary with respect to the time-varying normal operating conditions of the motor, particularly with load. Time-frequency methods can overcome the shortcomings of the traditional spectral analysis techniques, nonstationary signal analysis approaches have been introduced. We examine the concept of IF as a potential candidate for condition monitoring of motors.

Alpha-interferon was produced by using recombinant Escherichia coli strains, which carry cloned alpha-interferon gene in plasmid vectors, pIF-III-B and pIF-III-C. With the aid of signal sequence of E. coli lipoprotein, which is placed right in front of the upstream of the cloned alpha-interferon gene of the plasmids, about 50% of alpha-interferon produced was excreted or secreted. Meanwhile, there was no extracellular production of alpha-interferon from the recombinant strain carrying the plasmid Hif-2h that lacks the signal sequence of lipoprotein.

A structural health monitoring (SHM) technique for locating impact position in a composite plate is presented in this paper. The technique employs a single sensor and spatial focusing properties of time reversal (TR) and inverse filtering (IF). We first examine the focusing effect of back-propagated signal at the impact position and its surroundings through simulation. Impact experiments are then carried out and the localization images are found using the TR and IF signal processing, respectively. Both techniques provide accurate impact location results. Compared to existing techniques for locating impact or acoustic emission source, the proposed methods have the benefits of using a single sensor and not requiring knowledge of material properties and geometry of structures. Furthermore, it does not depend on a particular mode of dispersive Lamb waves that is frequently used in the SHM of plate-like structures.

A bandpass sampling technique, which is a method directly downconverting a bandpass signal to a baseband or a low IF signal without analog mixers, can be an alterative choice for the SDR system to minimize the RF front-end. In this paper, a complex bandpass sampling technique for two bandpass-filtered signals is proposed. We derived generalized formulae for the available sampling range, the signal's IF and the minimum sampling frequency taking into consideration the guard-bands for the multiple RE signals. Thru the simulation experiments, the advantages of the . complex bandpass sampling over the pre-reported real bandpass sampling are investigated for applications in the SDR design.

In this paper, a design and implementation of GPS/Galileo software receiver is given. As a GPS receiver, it is able to perform every function of receiver such as acquisition, code and carrier tracking, navigation bit extraction, navigation data decoding, pseudorange calculations, and position calculations. A method to acquire and track the Galileo BOC(1,1) signal is also required because the correlation of BOC(1,1) signal has multiple peaks different from that of GPS signal. Therefore, a method to detect the main-peak in correlation function of BOC signal is required to avoid false acquisition. In this paper, very-early, very late correlation is implemented to track the correct main peak. The performance of implemented GPS/Galileo software receiver with BOC(1,1) signal tracking feature is evaluated with GPS/Galileo IF signal generator.
