The Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) system is a digital broadcasting standard designed for use in the LF, MF and HF bands of the broadcasting bands below 30 MHz. The system provides both superior audio quality and improved user services / operability compared with existing AM transmissions. In this paper, we propose a variable point Prime Factor FFT design method for Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) system. Proposed method processes a various size IFFT/FFT of Robustness Mode on DRM standard efficiently by composing Radix-Prime Factor FFT Processing Unit of form similar to Radix-4 by insertion of a variable Prime Factor Twiddle Factor and Garbage data. So, we improved limitation that cannot process 112/176/256/288 FFT of each mode of DRM system with a existent Radix Processor and increase memory size and memory access time for IFFT/FFT processing by software processing in case of implementation with a existent high speed DSP.

Recently, Transmitter Identification(TxID) technology has been issued as a technology of ATSC DTV. ATSC DTV networks are comprised of a plurality of transmitters, broadcasting the same signal sing one frequency network(SFN) connected to EDOCR. In this single frequency network, TxID technology has been recognized as a technology in the ATSC DTV system since it enables the broadcast authorities and classify multiple transmitters. However, conventional TxID uses extremely long spreading sequence to identifying transmitters, so it increases H/W complexity and registers. Thus, to solve those hardware problems, we propose an efficient signal processing technology using decimation algorithm. Furthermore, we certified the availability of the proposed algorithm via various simulations.

Since its launching on 21 December 1999, the Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-I (KOMPSAT-I) has been successfully operated by the Mission Control Element (MCE), which was developed by the ETRI. Most of the major functions of the MCE have been successfully demonstrated and verified during the three years of the mission life of the satellite. This paper presents the operational performances of the various functions in MAPS. We show the performance and analysis of orbit determinations using ground-based tracking data and GPS navigation solutions. We present four instances of the orbit maneuvers that guided the spacecraft form injection orbit into the nominal on-orbit. We include the ground-based attitude determination using telemetry data and the attitude maneuvers for imaging mission. The event prediction, mission scheduling, and command planning functions in MAPS subsequently generate the spacecraft mission operations and command plan. The fuel accounting and the realtime ground track display also support the spacecraft mission operations.

Currently the functionality of the PRC-999K radio that is widely used in Korean Army is half-duplex and the broadcasting system that all subscribers have to listen when one subscriber speaks in time. Radio data communication system configures peer-to-peer network between command post and network members in military fire control system. And the system applies CSMA/CA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance) technique to avoid data collision. Such a data transmitting/receiving time could be reduced by allocating address in serial order to each network members. By doing that, command post need to broadcast data only one time and assigned members will reply in order without data collision. This paper provides such a protocol and algorithm.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of the cooperative cognitive radio relay system which is adapted the recently highly focused cognitive radio system. The performance comparison is made between the system with and that without the opportunistic transmission relay. Especially the selection combining is considered at the destination for simple implementation. In this case, the effect of the channel state information (CSI) delay, which is caused essentially by the process during the CSI delivery, to the system performance is considered. It is noticed that the performance of the system with the opportunistic relay degrades up to 0.6 dB at a given condition compared to the system without the opportunistic relay. And it is shown that the system performance is more sensitive to the CSI delay compared to the frequency acquisition probability of the cognitive radio relay.

Since the existing analog village broadcasting system has some technical problems in applying and degradations in performance due to its old equipments, it had been required to be changed to a digital system and to develop the standardization from now. Therefore, we have analyzed the service coverage in various environments in order to construct an effective digital wireless village broadcasting system. Also, a precise prediction of field strength should be set up in various propagation environments to design a digital radio stations with reliable transmit power. Using these results the received power and the propagation characteristics in various environments can be predicted to establish a standard and the testing service will be deployed in the near future.

AM radio broadcasting has the advantage that the sound quality is lower than that of FM radio but the service area is wide and at night it can be transmitted even to overseas due to ionospheric reflection. AM radio broadcasts usually transmit large amounts of several tens to several hundreds of kilowatts (KW), requiring a lot of power, which is a financial burden on broadcasters. Recently, it is required to introduce a way to reduce the power of AM radio broadcasting in Korea. Therefore, it is possible to save a certain amount of power compared to the conventional AM radio broadcasting, and it is possible to maintain the existing license service area and sound quality, and what policies are needed to introduce the technology. In this paper, we predict the reduction of transmission power when a high efficiency transmission system is applied to existing AM radio broadcasting transmission system. As a result of the research, AMC adopting the high efficiency transmission method instead of the conventional AM radio transmission method, and when the modulation ratio of AM radio is 70%, if -3 dB companding is applied, the annual transmission power charge is decreased from 5,185,838,160Won to 3,528,900,086Won with saving of 32.0%, When -6 dB companding is applied, it is expected to be reduced to 2,608,378,934Won, which is 49.7% savings.

The Eureka-147 Digital Audio Broadcasting(DAB) system is the new international standard for mobile broadcasting services including high-quality audio, program associated data and other multimedia data. In this paper, we design the transport frame structures for the mobile multimedia services by using the configuration of the Eureka-147 DAB multiplex and MPEG system specifications, and then compare their performances in terms of functionality and overhead. Especially, we suggest and analyze the effective transport structures, which are improved in the efficiency of media multiplexing architecture, by removing the functionally overlapped parts between DAB and MPEG systems. In addition, we evaluate the transmission environments of various DAB data channels and demonstrate the transmission error effects on the low bit rate video stream.

In this paper, we propose an efficient single-resource task scheduling algorithm for the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite. Among general satellite planning functions such as constraint check, priority check, and task scheduling, this paper focuses on the task scheduling algorithm, which resolves conflict among tasks which have an exclusion relation and the same priority. The goal of the proposed task scheduling algorithm is to maximize the number of tasks that can be scheduled. The rationale of the algorithm is that a discarded task can be scheduled instead of a previously selected one depending on the expected benefit acquired by doing so. The evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm enhances the number of tasks that can be scheduled considerably.

An active phased array antenna consists of many channels. Each channel has a different initial phase shift and gain because of the inequality in the active circuits themselves, interface between radiators and active circuits, and beam-forming circuits and other antenna system configurations. This raises an inherent problem in active phased array antennas. To compensate for this problem the initial phase and gain of each channel should be calibrated. This paper presents an efficient calibration method for an initial phase variation of each channel in active phased array antennas. We tested our method in an active phased array antenna, and obtained good results in the radiation pattern and beam direction of antenna.
