This paper analyzes a sequential estimator with flexible structure for rapid acquisition of the m-sequence signals. If the received PN chips stored in the estimator's internal registers as initial loading values include one error, this chip with error can be corrected through multiple local PN code generators to achieve high-speed acquisition performance. Hamming distance between regenerated local PN codes from the proposed system and received PN code is compared with given threshold to choose a possible correct path and to declare success of the code acquisition. Using signal flow graph, average acquisition time that depends on detection and false alarm probability is calculated. By modifying generally used matched filter structure for PN code acquisition, the proposed system provides flexible structure and rapid acquisition process.

The 4th Industrial Revolution and the continuous development of Science and Technology have also required a speedy business promotion method in the defense industry. Advanced countries including the United States are already boldly innovating the existing high-cost and long-term acquisition system with the highest priority in weapons development to cope with the military rise of Russia and China. The Ministry of National Defense and the Defense Acquisition Program Administration have also recently introduced a quick acquisition system and are applying it to business promotion. In addition, some small-scale projects and weapons systems are being reorganized so that they can be managed by the units demanding them. After an organizational diagnosis of the Project Acquisition Group by the Ministry of National Defense in 2020, it has been reassigned as a subordinate unit of the Army Logistics Command from a direct unit managed by the Army HQ. As a result, problems such as work conflict or redundancy have been identified. In addition, a system has been implemented to shorten the acquisition period by applying a rapid acquisition program in the field of weapons systems by benchmarking the rapid acquisition program of advanced countries. The force support system project process will also need to introduce such a quick acquisition system. In addition, the Ministry of National Defense is considering ways to delegate some weapon systems to each military, which will then carry out tasks ranging from requirements determination to project management. Accordingly, it is now time to expand the organization for the management of the Army's weapons system acquisition project. Therefore, in this paper, the Army Project Acquisition Group was analyzed on its organization, acquisition procedures, and cooperation systems, with presentations of development plans for each field.

In the direct sequence spread spectrum system, the correct synchronization is very important; hence, several acquisition schemes based on the sequential estimation have been developed. Typically, the rapid acquisition sequential estimation (RASE) scheme, the seed accumulating sequential estimation (SASE) scheme, the recursive soft sequential estimation (RSSE) scheme have been developed for the correct acquisition. However, the objective performance comparison and analysis between former estimation schemes have not been performed so far. In this paper, we compare and analyze the performance of the above sequential estimation schemes by simulating the correct chip probability and the mean acquisition time (MAT).

In this paper, we propose a two step Binary Exponential search algorithm for rapid acquisition time of UWB(Ultra Wide Band) signal on UWB communication systems. Previous proposed timing acquisition algorithm is searching whole frame that consist of the number of n Bins to terminate search, however this paper proposed two step Binary Exponential search algorithm can achieve remarkable reduction of UWB signal acquisition time as limiting search group. Proposed search algorithm is consisting of search group establishment step and Bit Reversing of search group establishment step.

According to the GPS modernization, L5 is the third civilian GPS signal, broadcasts in a radio band reserved exclusively for aviation safety services. However, as the code length of GPS L5 is ten times longer than that of GPS L1, the acquisition processing time in GPS L5 takes longer than that of L1. This characteristics make the code phase detected initially change and cause the tracking loop to unlock. In order to overcome this problem, this paper proposes L5 acquisition schemes for the rapid code phase re-search and the fine doppler determination. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through the simulation results.

The GPS modernization program offered a new civil signal on the L2 band, and the first modernized GPS Block IIR satellite was launched in September 2005. Currently, eight GPS Block IIRM satellites and two Block IIF satellites transmit L2C signal. The L2C signal contains two codes of CM and CL that are much longer than the L1 C/A code. Thus, the acquisition of the CM and CL codes takes more time compared with that of L1 C/A code. Under the assumption that the L2C signal is strong enough for detection, this paper suggests rapid acquisition methods for the GPS L2C signals for software receivers and compares its performance with that of other methods.

In this research, regarding the cement supplied to ready mixed concrete plant, the feasibility of rapid acquisition test for cement fineness using hydrometer which used for early strength evaluation of concrete was analyzed. Additionally, regarding the rapid test with hydrometer control factors were provided. As a result of analysis, quality control using hydrometer was possible with the regressive equation obtained in five minute between density of suspension and fineness of cement powder. As the control factors, dispersing admixture, replacing kerosene as a medium, and temperature of cement and water were evaluated. According to the control factor evaluation, the tap water was optimum as a medium and calibration of keeping the temperature of water to $20^{\circ}C$ or correction factor was needed for density results. Finally, it is considered that the suggested rapid quality evaluation method using hydrometer is cheaper and easier method than currently used Blaine test.

This study explores the application of Mission Engineering, a concept and methodology adopted by the U.S. Department of Defense, to the Republic of Korea's defense planning and management system in response to the rapidly changing security environment. Through literature review, analysis of prior research and case studies, and focus group interviews (FGI), key elements of Mission Engineering were derived. Based on these findings, improvements for the ROK military's requirements planning and rapid acquisition system were proposed. As a result, three critical elements for applying Mission Engineering were identified: operational concepts, required capabilities, and acquisition. Suggestions for improvement include transitioning to a mission-oriented requirements planning system, applying Mission Engineering methodology when formulating operational concepts, supporting decision-making to shorten acquisition timelines, allocating budgets for rapid acquisition, and strengthening the capabilities of requirement-setting units. This study confirms the necessity and applicability of Mission Engineering and is expected to serve as a foundation for the future development of the defense planning and management system.

In this paper, performance of a PN code acquisition scheme is analyzed and simulated for a DS/CDMA overlay system where a CDMA user and a narrowband user coexist in the same frequency band. To suppress the NBI, an interference suppression filter is employed at the receiver front-end. From the simulation results, it is shown that the interference suppression filter is very effective for suppression of the NBI and rapid PN code acquisition in a DS/CDMA overlay environment. It is also shown that the one-sided tap number of 5 fur interference suppression filter is sufficient to suppress the NBI.
