We propose a pseudo optical N-level pulse-amplitude modulation (PO PAM-N) signal using a few externally-modulated lasers (EMLs) operating at different wavelengths, which is suitable for upgrading the transmission speed over an optical link of < 10 km single-mode fiber with low-cost components. To compare a PO PAM-N signal with that of a standard optical PAM-N signal, we perform experiments for evaluating the performance of a 51.56-Gb/s PO PAM-4 signal and standard 51.56-Gb/s optical PAM-4 signal. The receiver sensitivity (at $BER=10^{-5}$) of the PO PAM-4 signal is 1.5 dB better than the receiver sensitivity of a standard optical PAM-4 signal. We also investigate the feasibility of PO PAM-N (N = 4, 8, and 16) signals operating at 103.12 Gb/s, considering relative intensity noise, timing jitter, extinction ratio (ER) of EMLs, and dispersion. From the results, a PO PAM-8 signal performs better than PO PAM-4 and PO PAM-16 signals at 103.12 Gb/s. Finally, we suggest a timing control method to suppress the effect of dispersion in a PO PAM-N signal. We show that the tolerance to dispersion of a 103.12-Gb/s PO PAM-8 signal can be improved to ${\pm}40ps/nm$ by applying a proposed scheme.

Nowadays, the advanced smart convergences of the artificial intelligence (AI) and the internet of things (IoT) have been more and more important, in the fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G (B5G) mobile communication. In 5G and B5G mobile networks, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been extensively investigated as one of the most promising multiple access (MA) technologies. In this paper, we investigate the achievable data rate for the asymmetric binary pulse amplitude modulation (2PAM), in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). First, we derive the closed-form expression for the achievable data rate of the asymmetric 2PAM NOMA. Then it is shown that the achievable data rate of the asymmetric 2PAM NOMA reduces for the stronger channel user over the entire range of power allocation, whereas the achievable data rate of the asymmetric 2PAM NOMA increases for the weaker channel user improves over the power allocation range less than 50%. We also show that the sum rate of the asymmetric 2PAM NOMA is larger than that of the conventional standard 2PAM NOMA, over the power allocation range larger than 25%. In result, the asymmetric 2PAM could be a promising modulation scheme for NOMA of 5G systems, with the proper power allocation.

We report an electroabsorption modulator (EAM)-integrated distributed Bragg reflector laser diode (DBR-LD) capable of supporting a high data rate and a wide wavelength tuning. The DBR-LD contains two tuning elements, plasma and heater tunings, both of which are implemented in the DBR section, which have blue-shift and red-shift in the Bragg wavelength through a current injection, respectively. The light created from the DBR-LD is intensity-modulated through the EAM voltage, which is integrated monolithically with the DBRLD using a butt-joint coupling method. The fabricated chip shows a threshold current of approximately 8 mA, tuning range of greater than 30 nm, and static extinction ratio of higher than 20 dB while maintaining a side mode suppression ratio of greater than 40 dB under a window of 1550 nm. To evaluate its modulation properties, the chip was bonded onto a mount including a radiofrequency line and a load resistor showing clear eye openings at data rates of 25 Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero and 50 Gb/s pulse amplitude modulation 4-level, respectively.

초광대역(Ultra-WideBand) 시스템은 1nsec 이하의 매우 짧은 펄스폭을 갖는 가우시안 모노펄스를 이용하여 전송한다. 따라서, 전송 신호는 매우 낮은 전력의 수 GHz에 이르는 초광대역 스펙트럼을 갖게 되며, 기존의 통신 시스템에 거의 간섭을 미치지 않는 것으로 알려져 있다. 반송파를 사용하지 않는 초광대역 시스템에서 다중 경로 전파의 충돌은 일반적인 무선 통신시스템과는 매우 다르다. 이 논문은 다중 경로 채널하에서 BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM 변복조 기술들을 적용한 초광대역 시스템을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능을 비교 분석하고자 한다.

본 논문은 VLC (Visible Light Communication)의 컬러그리드 변조방식을 이용하여 스마트 도어락 시스템을 구현하기 위한 다중접속 방식을 제안한다. 컬러그리드 변조방식을 이용하여 도어락으로 접근하는 다수의 사용자를 인식하고 인증하기 위하여 가시광 신호를 다중으로 접속하는 방법이다. 기존 인프라를 이용하여 가시광 다중 접속을 가능하게 하기 위해서는 신호의 심벌 에너지 간격을 최대한 넓게 해야한다. 따라서 이와 같은 가시광 컬러그리드 기반 심벌을 모듈레이션하여 가시광 채널에서 제안된 시스템의 성능을 측정한다. 다중 접속 사용자의 수를 인식하는 도어락 시스템을 구현하기 위한 변조신호의 실제 채널 실험 결과를 보인다.

본 논문에서는 microwave 채널 환경에 적합한 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 기반의 DMR(Digital Microwave Radio)시스템 구조를 제안하고 시스템 성능을 분석하였다. 기존의 단일 반송파 방식의 DMR 시스템은 High-level QAM변조방식을 사용하며 시스템 구성이 복잡하고, 페이딩 채널에 매우 민감한 특성을 갖기 때문에 전송용량의 한계가 발생한다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 방안으로 페이딩 채널에 강한 OFDM 방식이 연구되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 기존 OFDM에서 사용된 windowing 방식 대신 BL-PSF(Band-Limited Pulse Shaping Filter)를 이용 하므로서 GI/GB(Guard Interval/Guard Band) 등의 잉여 데이터 사용을 지양하여 전송용량을 향상 시킬수 있도록 하였으며, IFFT/FFT 블록의 이용효율을 개선시킬 수 있도록 하였다. 본논문에서는 microwave 채널 환경에 대해 단일 반송파 방식의 DMR 시스템과 OFDM/QPSK-DMR 시스템의 성능을 시뮬레이션하여 비교분석하였다. 그 결과, 제안하는 DMR 시스템은 부 반송파의 수가 많아질수록 단일 반송파 방식의 DMR 시스템보다 우수한 fade margin을 갖는것을 알 수 있었다.

Although yttrium iron garnet (YIG) has provided a great vehicle for the study of spin waves in the past, associated difficulties in film deposition and device fabrication using YIG had limited the applicability of spin waves to practical devices. However, microfabrication techniques have made it possible to characterize both the resonant as well as the travelling characteristics of spin waves in permalloy (Py). A variety of methods have been used for measuring spin waves, including Brillouin light scattering (BLS), magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE), vector network analyzer ferromagnetic resonance (VNA-FMR), and pulse inductive microwave magnetometry (PIMM). PIMM is one of the most preferred methodologies of measuring travelling spin waves. In this method, an electrical impulse is applied at one of two coplanar waveguides patterned on top of oxide-insulated Py, producing a local disturbance in the magnetization of the Py. The resulting disturbance travels down the Py in the form of waves, and is inductively picked up by the other coplanar waveguide. We investigate the effect of the pulse width of excitation pulses on the generated spin wave packets using both experimental results and micromagnetic simulations. We show that spin wave packets generated from electrical pulses are a superposition of two separate spin wave packets, one generated from the rising edge and the other from the falling edge, which interfere either constructively or destructively with one another, depending upon the magnitude and direction of the field bias conditions. A method of spin wave amplitude modulation is also presented by the linear superposition of spin waves. We use interfering spin waves resulting from two closely spaced voltage impulses for the modulation of the magnitude of the resultant spin wave packets.

We propose a direct-sequence pulse-amplitude modulation (DS-PAM) ultra-wideband (UWB) system which employs a non-linear chirp waveform instead of the conventional Gaussian monocycle in this paper. In the approved frequency for UWB, there exist myriad narrowband interferers. Specifically, we focus on the mutual interference between UWB systems and 802.11a WLAN. This paper offers a method to suppress this in-band narrowband interference by introducing a kind of non-linear chirp waveform. Using the proposed non-linear chirp waveform, the effects of one or more narrowband interference sources with different frequencies can be suppressed. System performance of UWB systems in the narrowband interference environment can be improved. Computer simulations with additive white Gaussian noise successfully demonstrate an increase in performance with the proposed system as compared to traditional linear chirp systems.

Interference from IEEE 802.11a systems affects ultra-wideband (UWB) systems significantly. In this letter, we suggest a novel narrow-band interference (NBI) suppression technique based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm in time-hopping pulse amplitude modulation (TH-PAM) UWB systems. The SVD algorithm is used to approximate the interference which then is subtracted from the received signals. In contrast to the conventional notch filter and rake receiver, our method is more effective and the receiver complexity can be greatly reduced.
