A line profile synthesis method is presented that minimizes the nearest-neighbor crosstalk peak level for high-speed pulse transmission in multi-coupled microstrip signal buses. We adopted the optimization technique for the reflected wave control on bus lines resulting in increasing the average spacing between strip conductors, since in a parallel-conductor bus the crosstalk energy is concentrated at the nearest neighbors of the driven line. The generalized S-matrix technique is applied for the input and output waveform prediction, and crosstalk characteristics of various nonuniform lines synthesized for increasing the average spacing are analyzed by comparing each other. Simulation results demonstrate that the Chebyshev taper with dips is adequate to significantly minimize the crosstalk peak level under the satisfactory waveform integrity since the profile is oriented to evenly reflect significant pulse spectra within the frequency range of pulse.

In this paper, we propose an efficient and robust interference mitigation technique based on a nullsteering multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) spatial division multiple access (SDMA) scheme for frequency sharing between IMT-advanced and fixed satellite service (FSS) in the 3400-4200 and 4500-4800 MHz bands. In the proposed scheme, the pre-existing precoding matrix for SDMA unitary precoded (UPC) MIMO proposed by the authors is modified to construct nulls in the spatial spectrum corresponding to the direction angles of the victim FSS earth station (ES). Furthermore, a numerical formula to calculate the power of the interference signal received at the FSS ES when IMT-Advanced base stations (BS) are operated with the interference mitigation technique is presented. This formula can be derived in closed form and is simply implemented with the help of simulation, resulting in significantly reduced time to obtain the solution. Finally, the frequency sharing results are analyzed in the co-channel and adjacent channel with respect to minimum separation distance and direction of FSS earth station (DOE). Simulation results indicate that the proposed mitigation scheme is highly efficient in terms of reducing the separation distance as well as robust against DOE estimation errors.

A very simple control approach using neural network for the robust position control of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(PMSM) is presented. The linear quadratic controller plus feedforward neural network is employed to obtain the robust PMSM system approximately linearized using field-orientation method for an AC servo. The neural network is trained in on-line phases and this neural network is composed by a feedforward recall and error back-propagation training. Since the total number of nodes are only eight, this system can be easily realized by the general microprocessor. During the normal operation, the input-output response is sampled and the weighting value is trained multi-times by error back-propagation method at each sample period to accommodate the possible variations in the parameters or load torque. In addition, the robustness is also obtained without affecting overall system response. This method is realized by a floating-point Digital Signal Processor DS1102 Board (TMS320C31).

This paper investigates the outage behavior of peak interference power limited cognitive radio (CR) networks with multiple transmit antennas. In CR-multi-input single-output (MISO) channel, the total transmit power is distributed over the transmitantennas. First, we use the orthogonal space-time codes (STC) to achieve the transmit diversity at CR-receiver (rx) and investigate the effect of the power distribution on the interference power received at the primary-receiver (P-rx). Then, we investigate the transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme in which the CR system selects the best transmit antenna and allocates all the power to the selected best antenna. Two transmit antenna selection strategies are proposed depending on if feedback channel is available or not. We derive the closed form expressions of outage probability and outage capacity of all schemes with arbitrary number of transmit-antennas. We show that the proposed schemes significantly improve the outage capacity over the single antenna systems in Rayleigh fading environment. We also show that TAS based scheme outperforms the STC based scheme when peak interference power constraint is imposed on the P-rx only if a feedback channel from CR-rx to CR-transmitter is available.

Channel coding is one of the most important things to improve digital communications. In this paper, we analyze the performance of turbo code with block interleaver using hopping algorithm (i. e., non-linear interleaver) for high speed multi-media service. The input and output of conventional block interleaver is achieved by the order of column and row, but hoping algorithm is achieved by hopping the column and row that increase the minimum distance and average distance between the nearest data dually. To verify and compare the performance of an proposed method the computer simulation have been performed using turbo code in gaussian channel environment.

In this paper, a small size, $7{\times}6\;mm^2$, Low Noise Amplifier(LNA) using LTCC process was fabricated with multi-layer structure for 2.4GHz wireless LAN. The measured results demonstrate that the bandwidth is 130 MHz, and the operating frequency is from 2.39GHz to 2.52GHz. The power gain is above 7.3 dB in the operating frequency range and the gain flatness is 0.5 dB. The maximum S11 is -4 dB and the maximum S22 is -7.5 dB. The noise figure is less than 1.83 dB. The measured power gain, S11 and S22 were had poorer performance than the simulation results. The reason for this discrepancy is that the input and output matching was not performed exactly. However, the noise figure of the LTCC low noise amplifier is better than simulation result. It is found that it is possible to fabricate a LTCC low noise amplifier in a small size.

In this paper, a novel prototype of auxiliary switched capacitor assisted voltage source soft switching PWM Single-Ended Push Pull (SEPP) series capacitor compensated load resonant inverter with two auxiliary edge resonant lossless inductor snubbers is proposed and discussed for small scale consumer high-frequency induction heating (IH) appliances. The operation principle of this inverter is described by using switching mode equivalent circuits. The newly developed multi resonant high-frequency inverter using trench gate IGBTs can regulate its output AC power via constant frequency edge-resonant associated soft switching commutation by using an asymmetrical PWM control or duty cycle control scheme. The brand-new consumer IH products which use the newly proposed edge-resonant soft switching PWM-SEPP type series load resonant high-frequency inverters are evaluated using power regulation characteristics, actual efficiency vs. duty cycle and input power vs. actual efficiency characteristics. Their operating performance compared with some conventional soft switching high-frequency inverters for IH appliances is discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results. The practical effectiveness of the newly proposed soft switching PWM SEPP series load resonant inverter is verified from an application point of view as being suitable for consumer high-frequency IH appliances.

According to large-sized LCD, the CCFL used in backlight is getting longer and a backlight using one lamp makes a needed brightness by arranging lamp in parallel because of the limit of brightness. In this paper, the inverter to nu the large back-light in 42inch LCD TV using 20 CCFLs was designed to produce the same output on each lamp in any input condition. Supplementing the conventional high-low method driving CCFL, by adopting high-high one, the brightness variation among each lamp sides is improved. Additionally, to improve the brightness variation, the method connecting the lamp and the capacitor in series is used. The proposed system was verified by the experiment.

This paper presents a novel lateral stability control system for electric vehicle based on sideslip angle estimation through Kalman filter using the integration of a single antenna GPS receiver and yaw rate sensor. Using multi-rate measurements including yaw rate and course angle, time-varying parameters disappear from the measurement equation of the proposed Kalman filter. Accurate sideslip angle estimation is achieved by treating the combination of model uncertainties and external disturbances as extended states. Active front steering and direct yaw moment are integrated to manipulate sideslip angle and yaw rate of the vehicle. Instead of decoupling control design method, a new control scheme, "two-input two-output controller", is proposed. The extended states are utilized for disturbance rejection that improves the robustness of lateral stability control system. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is verified by computer simulations and experiments.

In this contribution, we designed a general purpose input/output (GPIO) suitable for embedded systems, especially for Bluetooth baseband. Proposed architecture is compatible for the APB bus in AMBA bus architecture. General purpose I/O should be used as multi-functional and versatile interrupt sources. We considered the edge-sensitive mode as well as the level-sensitive mode for acquiring the interrupt sources. Also, we provided an option to select the operation polarity for flexible application to the embedded systems. The designed GPIO module was automatically synthesized, placed, and routed. Implementation was performed through the Altera FPGA and well operated at 25MHz clock frequency.
