Phase-locked loops (PLLs) are among the most important mixed-signal building blocks of modern communication and control circuits, where they are used for frequency and phase synchronization, modulation, and demodulation as well as frequency synthesis. The growing popularity of PLLs has increased the need to test these devices during prototyping and production. The problem of distinguishing and classifying the responses of analog integrated circuits containing catastrophic faults has aroused recent interest. This is because most analog and mixed signal circuits are tested by their functionality, which is both time consuming and expensive. The problem is made more difficult when parametric variations are taken into account. Hence, statistical methods and techniques can be employed to automate fault classification. As a possible solution, we use the back propagation neural network (BPNN) to classify the faults in the designed charge-pump PLL. In order to classify the faults, the BPNN was trained with various training algorithms and their performance for the test structure was analyzed. The proposed method of fault classification gave fault coverage of 99.58%.

It is known that the Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) modulation scheme in the coherent optical communication system is suitable for design of long-distance transmission system because its receiver performance is 3-5dB better than ASK and FSK. In this paper, we descrive a fundamental understanding of the effects of laser phase noise on the performance of coherent lighwave communication systems. Formulas are derived for the bit error rate in homodyne and heterodyne DPSK. Based on detailed mathematical analysis and estimates, we explain the following finding. DPSK can operates at rates only 300 times greater than the laser linewidth.

For implementation of FM-DS/SS system. This paper has analyzed SO(Synchronous Oscillator) being oscillated by the motivation of injected signal. Transmitter has adopted FM-DS/SS modulation method using RF output-signal of FM. Receiver is used SO to demodulation of FM-DS/SS and applied sliding correlator for synchronization of PN clock. As a result of the inspection, SO presented stable lock ability in spite of doppler apperance and proved the synchronous properties of it in the FM-DS/SS system.

This paper deals with the underwater image transmission system which includes in AUV(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) Project(that is VORAM(Vehicle for Ocean Research And Monitoring)), developed by KIMM for survey and investigation of a sea-bed through transmitting the underwater image to the mother ship. The system presented in this paper consists of a transducer which has a 136KHz center frequency and it's 10KHz bandwidth, pre-amplifier, $\pi$/4 QPSK(Quadreature Phase Shift Keying) modulation/demodulation method, image compressing method using JPEG technique and modified Stop & protocol. The experimental results of the system is verified to a high performance with 9600 bps for transmitting the underwater image through the basin test. The results of test are also verified which allows to desirable transmission performance compared with the existing developed system and the possibility to put the practical use of survey and investigation. And, the viterbi coding and adaptive equalizer for cancelling the multipath effect are developing for more effective image transmission system. Also, these technique will very effectively adapt to realtime image transmission system.

The ISDB-T(Integrated Service Digital Broadcasting Terrestrial) can be used in the multipath and impulsive noise, also it provide good performance over mobile reception environment since it use the OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) based transmission technology and time interleaving technology. One segment and full segment are divided according to the number of the assigned segment. And one-segment broadcasting receiver can design and implement without high levels of technology than the full-segment broadcasting receiver using 64QAM(64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) since it uses QPSK(Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) modulation/demodulation. However, it has a constraint in the display size and resolution due to data-rate limits. In this paper, we design and implementation of full-segment ISDB-T receiver module which support HD resolution for set-top box, digital TV, navigation. In experimental results, the implemented full-segment ISDB-T receiver module was satisfactory for all of the desired functions.

PSK(Phase Shift Keying) is useful because of the power and spectral efficient modulation. In this paper, no additional hardware will be needed to support various transmit mode in the suggested DSP scheme. We design and implement the synchronization algorithm for M-ary PSK(M=2, 4) demodulator based on DSP scheme, instead of complex analog PSK demodulator. TMS320C6203 is used as DSP. We check the all kinds of waveforms via the graph view window after software programming the emulation on the DSP tool. The result of implementation proves that demodulator using the suggested algorithm has equal performance with demodulator using analog circuits.

This paper presents WSK(wavelet shift keying) that can be improved to bit transmission rate in the digital communication. An algorithm of the conventional modulation is carried out that the scaling function and wavelet are encoded to 1(mark) and 0(space) for the input binary data, respectively. A new modulation technique that uses four carrier frequencies is proposed. Four carrier frequencies are defined as scaling function, inversed scaling function, wavelet, and inversed wavelet, which are encoded to 10, 11, 00 and 01 respectively. An algorithm of the proposed demodulation is decode to the original data using four correlation. As a results of simulation, we confirmed that the proposed method was improved to the performance at twice for the bit transmission rate.

Modulation type classifier based on statistical moments has been successfully employed to classify PSK signals. Previously, the classifier developed utilizes the statistical moment of samples of the received signal phase, which may be difficult to extract from received signal. In this paper we propose a new moments-based classifier to classify PSK signals by using the moments of the demodulated signal for PSK. THe demodulated signal can be easily extracted from the conventional demodulation of PSK. The evaluation of the performance of the proposed classifier for PSK signals has been investigated in additive white Gaussian noise environment using the exact distribution of the demodulated signal. The performances of classifier in terms of probability of misclassification were evaluated. We found that the coherent system classifier gave 4dB improvement for BPSK and 3dB for QPSK over noncoherent system classifier, when the probability of misclassification is 10 and m equals to 4.
