Green communication is a new paradigm of designing the communication system which considers not only the processing performance but also the energy efficiency. Power control management is one of the approaches in green communication to reduce the power consumption in distributed communication system. In this paper, we propose improved power control schemes for mobile satellite systems with ancillary terrestrial components (ATCs). In order to increase system capacity and reduce the transmitting power of the user's equipment, we propose an efficient channel estimation method consisting of a modified open-loop power control (OLPC) and closed-loop power control (CLPC). The OLPC works well if the forward and reverse links are perfectly correlated. The CLPC is sensitive to round-trip delay and, therefore, it is not effective in a mobile satellite system. In order to solve the above problem, we added monitoring equipment to both the OLPC and CLPC to use information about transmitting power that has not yet been received by the receiver over the satellite/ATC channel. Moreover, we adapted an efficient pilot diversity of both OLPC and CLPC in order to get a better signal to interference plus noise ratio estimation of the received signal.

Monopulse active homing radar requires velocity and angle information of target to track fast moving target. Target velocity can be estimated by measuring the frequency shift between transmitted and received frequencies. Angle information is obtained by measuring boresight error. Measurement of doppler frequency component in received signal is done through FFT analysis and interpolation algorithm for fine tuning. Boresight errors in azimuth and elevation axes are proportional to the power of each difference channel relative to sum channel. The target signal power in difference channel is estimated more precisely by measuring the power of FFT result cell of maximum ...

This paper introduces a new technique for estimating the speed of a mobile station in a wireless system. The proposed method is based on the feature extraction of the received signal envelope. The undecimated discrete wavelet transform via lifting captures local minimum points of the received signal, which is used for the speed estimation. This technique requires neither knowledge of the average received power of the nonstationary signal nor adaptation of a temporal observation window, in contrast to other speed estimators given in the literature. Simulations show that the proposed speed estimator tracks the variable speed of the mobile station.

GPS is the most widely-used Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) system. Since GPS is an important PNT infrastructure, the vulnerability of GPS to signal jamming has received significant attention. Especially, South Korea has experienced intentional high-power jamming from North Korea for the past three years, and thus realized the necessity of a complementary PNT system. South Korea recently decided to deploy a high-power terrestrial navigation system, eLoran, as a complementary PNT system. According to the plan, the initial operational capability of the Korean eLoran system is expected by 2016, and the full operational capability is expected by 2018. As a necessary research tool to support the Korean eLoran program, an eLoran performance simulation tool for Korea is under development. In this paper, the received signal strength, which is necessary to simulate eLoran performance, from the suggested Korean eLoran transmitters is simulated with the consideration of effective ground conductivities over Korea. Then, eLoran signal-to-noise ratios are also simulated based on atmospheric noise data over Korea. This basic simulation tool will be expanded to estimate the navigation performance (e.g., accuracy, integrity, continuity, and availability) of the Korean eLoran system.

본 논문에서는 보간 방식을 사용하는 OFDM 전송방식 통신 시스템에 적합한 새로운 심볼 시간동기 처리 방법 제시한다. 제안된 방법은 다음과 같은 과정을 거친다. 먼저, 수신되는 포락선 신호의 평균 전력을 연속적으로 측정함으로서, 대략적인 심볼 시간동기절차를 수행한다. 이 절차에 의해, 동기가능여부에 대한 판정을 한다. 만약 동기가 가능하다고 판단되는 경우, 이어서, 짧은 길이의 훈련신호와 수신된 포락선신호간의 상관성을 측정하는 방법을 사용하여, 정확한 심볼 동기과정을 수행하도록 한다. 마지막으로, 긴 훈련 신호를 사용한 주파수 동기절차를 수행하도록 하는데, 이것은 심볼 시간 동기 과정에서 발생되는 미세한 심볼 동기 오차에 의한 성상도의 회전 효과를 교정 할 수 있도록 하기 위함이다. 시뮬레이션 결과로부터, 제안된 동기방법이 주파수 선택적 페이딩 채널 하에서도 우수한 동기특성을 제공함을 알 수 있다.

Pulse echo techniques have been used for the conventional medical ultrasound imaging systems. However, their resolution is limited in the transmitted signal power. To overcome this limit, pulse compression method used in the radar systems was proposed. This system transmits a continuous coded signal and then compresses the received signal into the short and high resolution pulse by using correlator. The reflectors can be detected by cross-correlation between the transmitted signal and the received signal with the depth information. In this paper, we will present a comparative study of the performances of the most common sequences(pseudo-chirp, m-sequences, modified Golay code). The best result for improving resolution is obtained with the modified Golay Code.

This paper proposes a new call admission control method to enhance the reverse link capacity of a cell with heavy traffic in the CDMA PCS system under the uneven traffic load between cells. Since the capacity of a cell in the CDMA system is restricted by the total interference caused by terminals in the own cell and the adjacent cells, we can enhance the capacity of a cell by reducing the interference from other cells if possible. Our power control method allows that the signal powers received in base stations with heavy traffic be larger than those received in base stations with light traffic in order to make the interference due to other cells in the cells with heavy traffic relatively small. In the previous study, it was assumed that the signal power received by each base station in the CDMA PCS system is same when the call admission control algorithm is implemented. We could show that the reverse link capacity of a cell in the CDMA PCS system can be increased about 20% under our call admission control method.

본 논문은 협대역의 위성통신 수신신호 전력을 측정하여 이동형 위성통신 안테나를 추적제어하기 위한 DSP 기반의 협대역 위성통신 신호전력 검출기를 제안한다. 기존의 아날로그 검출방식에 의한 협대역 위성통신 신호전력 검출기는 위성 전파경로 상에서 발생되는 반송파의 중심주파수 천이로 인해 고정된 아날로그 필터대역을 통과하여 검출되는 신호 전력의 오차가 심하고 전송 신호의 대역폭 가변에 따른 아날로그 필터의 대역폭을 변경하기가 용이하지 않다. 따라서 이러한 반송파 주파수 천이에 영향 받지 않고 가변 하는 신호 대역폭에 대응하는 필터를 실시간으로 프로그래머블하게 지원하기 위하여 DSP 기반의 협대역 디지털 위성통신 신호전력 검출기를 제안하였다. 제안된 협대역 위성통신 신호전력 검출 알고리즘은 FFT를 이용하여 주파수 천이된 협대역 위성통신 신호의 주파수를 탐색하고 프로그래머블한 디지털 필터를 선택하여 필터링한 다음, 일정구간 주기로 신호전력을 계산하여 12비트 해상도로 출력하는 기능을 가진다. TMS320C5402 DSP 칩을 기반으로 설계 제작된 신호전력 검출기의 실제 시험을 통하여 제시된 요구기능과 규격을 만족하면서 동작함을 검증하였고 실용성을 확인하였다.

This paper investigates optimal relay selection and power allocation under an aggregate power constraint for cooperative wireless sensor networks assisted by amplify-and-forward relay nodes. By considering both transmission power and circuit power consumptions, the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the destination node is calculated, based on which, a relay selection and power allocation scheme is developed. The core idea is to adaptively adjust the selected relays and their transmission power to maximize the received SNR according to the channel state information. The proposed scheme is derived by recasting the optimization problem into a three-layered problem-determining the number of relays to be activated, selecting the active relays, and performing power allocation among the selected relays. Monte Carlo simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme provides a higher received SNR and a lower bit error rate as compared to the average power allocation scheme.
