In this paper, various modulation techniques, including the legacy Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal modulation techniques, are introduced and the spectral characteristics and correlation characteristics of signals with various modulation techniques are analyzed based on numerical simulation. With the development of various GNSS services, the limited frequency band has become increasingly saturated, and issues of interoperability and compatibility have emerged in the new GNSS design. Since the efficient allocation of frequency resources is closely related to spectrum design, modulation techniques are one of the important signal design parameters of new signal design. Signal modulation techniques are closely related to various figure of merits (FoMs) as well as spectrum characteristic, and in some cases there is a complicated trade-off between FoMs. Thus, the FoMs associated with modulation technology should be analyzed and the best signal candidates should be chosen carefully via the trade-off analysis for FoMs. In this paper, we define the modulation technique based on Phase Shift Keying (PSK), Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) and Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) for the design of KPS signals, and the FoMs of signals in terms of spectrum and correlation function are evaluated. Signals with various modulation techniques are implemented through a numerical simulation, and the relevant FoMs are analyzed.

A spread spectrum clock generation is an efficient way to reduce electro-magnetic interference (EMI) radiation in modern mixed signal chip systems. The proposed circuit generates the spread spectrum clock by directly injecting the modulation voltage into the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) current source for SATA II. The resulting 33KHz modulation profile has a Hersey-Kiss shape with a rounded peak. The chip has been fabricated using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and test results show that the proposed circuit achieves 0.509% (5090ppm) down spreading at 1.5GHz and peak power reduction of 10dB. The active chip area is 0.36mm ${\times}$ 0.49mm and the chip consumes 30mW power at 1.5GHz.

In this paper, we propose a robust music audio fingerprinting system for automatic music retrieval. The fingerprint feature is extracted from the long-term dynamic modulation spectrum (LDMS) estimation in the perceptual compressed domain. The major advantage of this feature is its significant robustness against severe background noise from the street and cars. Further the fast searching is performed by looking up hash table with 32-bit hash values. The hash value bits are quantized from the logarithmic scale modulation frequency coefficients. Experiments illustrate that the LDMS fingerprint has advantages of high scalability, robustness and small fingerprint size. Moreover, the performance is improved remarkably under the severe recording-noise conditions compared with other power spectrum-based robust fingerprints.

본 논문은 음악 정보검색에 사용되는 효과적인 템포 특징 추출방식을 제안한다. 제안된 템포 정보는 협소 밴드상의 일시적인 변조 성분에 의해 형성된다. 이러한 변조 성분은 시간 축 상의 음악 신호로부터 스펙트럼을 구한 후, 각 스펙트럼 성분에 대한 주파수 영역 분석을 통해 획득된 변조 스펙트럼으로 구성된다. 실제 구현에 있어서는 MP3 음악파일로부터 부분 디코딩에 의해 출력된 변형된 이산 코사인 변환 계수에 퓨리에 변환을 취하여 변조스펙트럼을 구하였다. 획득된 변조 스펙트럼의 진폭으로부터 고속으로 추출된 음악 템포 특징값은 다양한 음악 정보 검색에 적용되었다. 음악 무드 및 장르 분류에서는 로그 변조 주파수 계수를 적용하여 분류 성능을 개선시켰으며, 적응 변조 스펙트럼에서 유도된 비트 벡터는 오디오 핑거프린팅에 적용되어 잡음환경 하에서도 검색 성능을 크게 향상시켰다.

Dual energy computed tomography (DECT) is used to classify two materials and quantify the mass density of each material in the human body. An energy modulation filter based DECT could acquire two images, which are generated by the low- and high-energy photon spectra, in one scan, with one tube and detector. In the case of DECT using the energy modulation filter, the filter should perform the optimization process for the type of materials and thicknesses for generating two photon spectra. In this study, Geant4 Monte-Carlo simulation toolkit was used to execute the optimization process for determining the property of the energy modulation filter. In the process, various materials used for the energy modulation filter are copper (Cu, $8.96g/cm^3$), niobium (Nb, $8.57g/cm^3$), stannum (Sn, $7.31g/cm^3$), gold (Au, $19.32g/cm^3$), and lead (Pb, $11.34g/cm^3$). The thickness of the modulation filter varied from 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm. To evaluate the overlap region of the low- and high-energy spectrum, Geant4 Monte-Carlo simulation is used. The variation of the photon flux and the mean energy of photon spectrum that passes through the energy modulation filter are evaluated. In the primary photon spectrum of 80 kVp, the optimal modulation filter is a 0.1 mm lead filter that can acquire the same mean energy of 140 kVp photon spectrum. The lead filter of 0.1 mm based dual energy CBCT is required to increase the tube current 4.37 times than the original tube current owing to the 77.1% attenuation in the filter.

본 논문에서는 불연속 주파수 변조 기법을 사용하는 낮은 EMI 분산 스펙트럼 클록 발생기 (SSCG)를 제안한다. 제안된 SSCG는 높은 변조폭을 갖는 삼각 주파수 변조 기법을 사용한다. SSCG의 최대 시간 구간 오차 (MTIE)가 제한 기준을 넘어서면 SSCG의 출력 주파수가 분주기를 거쳐 시간 구간 오차 (TIE)의 값을 감소시킨다. 이러한 불연속 주파수 변조 기법은 주어진 MTIE 제한 기준 내에서 전자기 방사를 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있다. 이 방법은 일반적인 SSCG보다 전자기 방사를 18.5dB 더 개선하였다.

The energy efficiency and bandwidth efficiency are two important criterion in designing a modulation scheme Especially the constant envelope property must be considered as in the non-linear channel tht exit, for example in the nonlinear amplifiers for satellite repeater. The Q$^{2}$AM(Quadrature Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) is a new modulation scheme which combines the Q$^{2}$PSK(Quadrature Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) scheme which increases the signal space dimension and the QAM scheme which increases the bandwidth efficiency using the multi-level signal. The Q$^{2}$AM scheme has by far superior spectrum efficiency compared with the existing modulation schemes. Applying this scheme in the non-linear communication system increses the bandwidth efficiency but cannot envelop property. In this paper, a new system architecture is suggested which satisfies the large spectrum efficiency and constant envelope property by implementing the linear block coding prior to the Q$^{2}$AM modulation. the system has improved in performance by gaining the constant envelope and the additional coding gain. We able to observe the performance improvement of the suggested system(at BER=10$^{-5}$ ) of 4.4 dB for the 16-QAM and 0.7 dB for the Q$^{2}$PSK under the exact spectrum efficiency.

임팻다이오드의 임지던스크기가 연류에 교류를 중첩시켜 가할경우 변화하는 특성을 고찰하였다. 스펙트럼분석기상에서 반송파영점측정방법으로 견파수변조된 파의 특성을 측달하였다. 각파수변조는 아주 작은 교류신호전압으로 가능하며 변조주파수를 일정히하고 신호전압을 증가시키면 소요대역폭이 아주 커지고 신호전압을 일정히하고 변조각파수를 작게할때 대역건은 약간 좁아지는 결과를 얻었다. This paper dells with the impedance variations of the IMPATT diode depending upon the small a.c. coomponent superimposed on the d.c. bias. The frequency deviation of the modulated wave is measured using a carrier null method on microwave spectrum analyser. Frequency modulation is achieved by the weack a.c. signal superimposed on the d.c. bias. The bandwidth rapidly increase with increasing modulation signal magnitude for constant modulation frquency and slightly decrease with decreasing modulation frequency for constant modulation signal magnitude.

This paper describes a spread spectrum clock generator (SSCG) circuit for DisplayPort 1.2 standard. A Hershey-Kiss modulation profile is generated by dual sigma-delta modulators. The structure generates various modulation slopes to shape a non-linear modulation profile. The proposed SSCG for DisplayPort 1.2 generates clock signals with 5000 ppm down spreading with a Hershey-Kiss modulation profile at three different clock frequencies, 540 MHz, 270 MHz and 162 MHz. The measured peak power reduction is about 15.6 dB at 540 MHz with the chip fabricated using a $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.
