This paper proposed a method to design the offset slotted rectangular microstrip patch antenna which can be used for GPS antenna. The multi-port connection method and the desegmentation technique had been used to analyze !he characteristics of this antenna. To reduce a size of this antenna, a dielectric substrate with a high permittivity($\varepsilon_{\gamma}$=10.2) was used and a offset rectangular slot was inserted in the microstrip patch antenna. The dimension of a manufactured antenna is $20\times30\times1.27$[mm]. Accordingly this small antenna can be used directly GPS antenna or cellular phone.

This paper presents a distance relaying algorithm based on the Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT) for elimination of DC-Offset. When the DFT is applied to current signal. the real and imaginary parts of fundamental component consist of fundamental component itself and DC-Offset. The DC-Offset is calculated by four consecutive values of the imaginary components, so that the fundamental component can be accurately estimated. Performance evaluation is presented for A-phase ground faults on 154kV 80km overhead transmission line. The proposed algorithm is inspected by software simulation and hardware simulation.

With the development of many display technologies currently applied to them in the field of printed electronics, there have been many researches that high resolution printing for thin and uniform pattern. In this paper, printing ink flow properties in the reverse offset mechanism were simulated. The aim of this research is to expect the ink flow behavior between cliches to make fine pattern by a printing technique which is a reverse offset. The simulation results show that almost the same as the experiments and the flow behavior according to the ink film thickness and printing pressure changes could be expected.

A uncooled infrared ray sensor used in an infrared thermal imaging detector has many advantages. But because the uncooled infrared ray sensor is made by MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) process variation of offset is large. In this paper, to solve process variation of offset a ROIC for uncooled infrared ray sensor that has process variation of offset compensation technique using differential delta sampling and reference signal compensation circuit was proposed. As a result of simulation that uses the proposed ROIC, it was possible to acquire compensated output characteristics without process variation of offsets.

Multiple input, multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO OFDM) systems are the candidate for the future wireless communications. However, the main drawback of MIMO OFDM systems is their sensitivity to carrier frequency offset (CFO) similar to the single input, single output OFDM (SISO OFDM) systems. The demodulation of a signal with CFO causes large bit error rate and degrade the performance of a symbol synchronizer. It is important to estimate the frequency offset and minimize or eliminate its impact. In this paper, we propose a technique based on observation training symbols for estimating CFO by employing block-by-block estimation for SISO OFDM systems. The technique of SISO OFDM is extended to the MIMO OFDM systems. Simulation results show that the proposed techniques have a superior performance and better accuracy compared to the conventional techniques in the sense of mean square error.

In this paper, we propose an efficient scene based non-uniformity correction algorithm which performs the offset correction using the uniform obtained from input scenes for Infrared camera. In general, pixel outputs of a infrared detector can not be uniform. Therefore, the non-uniformity correction procedure need to be performed to make the image outputs uniform. A typical non-uniformity correction method uses a black body at the laboratory to obtain the output of the infrared detector's pixels for two temperatures, HOT and COLD, and calculates the non-uniformity correction parameters. However, output characteristics of the Infrared detector changes while the Infrared camera is operated, the fixed pattern noise of the Infrared detector and dead pixels are generated. To remove the noise, the offset correction is generally performed. The offset correction procedure usually need the additional device such as a thermo-electric cooler, shutter, or non-uniformity correction lens. Therefore, we introduce a general scene based non-uniformity correction technique without additional equipment, and then we propose an improved non-uniformity correction algorithm based on image to solve the problem of the existing technique.

Offset-fed dish antennas are considered. Offset-fed dish antennas are widely used for DBS reception, the problem of offset-fed dish antenna has, however, received little attention because of its complicated and asymmetric geometry. A Fourier-transform technique and Physical Optics are employed to express the fields radiated from offset-fed reflector and feed horn aperture. The simultaneous equations are solved to obtain a solution in a fast convergent series, thus facilitating the numerical computation. For given parameters such as diameter of reflector, focal length, offset height of reflector center, exact solutions are derived. Since offset-fed dish antenna has an application as multi-beam antenna using multiple feed, a brief feasablity of dual beam antenna for Korea-SAT (116$^{\circ}$E, EIRP 59 dBW) and Orion-SAT (139$^{\circ}$E, EIRP 54 dBW) is given in Conclusion.

This paper presents a novel switching voltage model and an offset-based pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme for multilevel inverters with unbalanced DC sources. The switching voltage model under a DC voltage imbalance will be formulated in general form for multilevel neutral-point-clamped topologies. Analysis of the reference switching voltages from active and non-active switching voltage components in abc coordinates can enable voltage implementation for an unbalanced DC-source condition. Offset voltage is introduced as an indispensable variable in the switching voltage model for multilevel voltage-source inverters. The PWM performance is controlled through the design of two offset components in a subsequence. One main offset may refer to the common mode voltage, and the other offset restricts its effect on the quality of PWM control in related DC levels. The PWM quality can be improved as the switching loss is reduced in a discontinuous PWM mode by setting the local offset, which is related to the load currents. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verified by experimental results.

In this paper, differential cross coupled LC VCOs with two noise frequency filtering techniques are proposed. Both VCOs are based on symmetric capacitor with asymmetric inductor tank structure. The VCO using low pass filtering technique shows low phase noise of -130.40 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset when the center frequency is 1.619 GHz. And the other VCO using band pass filtering technique shows -127.93 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset frequency when center frequency is 1.604 GHz. Two noise frequency filtering techniques are approached with different target.

In this paper, a new signal processing technique is proposed for calibrating gain, phase, delay offsets in array antenna based anti-jamming minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) global-positioning-system (GPS) receivers. The proposed technique estimates gain, phase and delay offsets across the antennas, and compensates for the offsets based on the estimates. A pilot signal with good correlation characteristics is used for accurate estimation of the gain, phase and delay offsets. Based on the cross-correlation, the delay offset is first estimated and then gain/phase offsets are estimated. For fine delay offset estimation and compensation, an interpolation technique is used, and specifically, the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is employed for the interpolation technique to reduce the computational complexity. The proposed technique is verified through computer simulation using MATLAB. According to the simulation results, the proposed technique can reduce the gain, phaes and delay offset to 0.01 dB, 0.05 degree, and 0.5 ns, respectively.
