This paper proposes a new real-time 2-D convolver filter architecture wihtout using any multiplier. To meet the massive amount of computations for real-time image processing, several commercial 2-D convolver chips have many multipliers occupying large VLSI area. Te proposed architecture using only one shift-and-accumulator can reduce the chip size by more than 70% of commercial 2-D convolver filter chips and can meet the real-time image processing srequirement, i.e., the standard of CCIR601. In addition, the proposed chip can be used for not only 2-D image processing but also 1-D signal processing and has bood scalability for higher speed applications. We have simulated the architecture by using VHDL models and have performed logic synthesis. We used the samsung SOG cell library (KG60K) and verified completely function and timing simulations. The implemented filter chip consists of only 3,893 gates, operates at 125 MHz and can meet the real-time image processing requirement, that is, 720*480 pixels per frame and 30 frames per second (10.4 mpixels/second).

In this paper, it used a different pipeline method from conventional method which is encoding the video signal of analog with digital. It designed with pipeline structure of 4 phases as the pixel clock ratio of the whole operation of the encoder, and secured the stable operational timing of the each sub-blocks, it was visible the effect which reduces a gate possibility as designing by the ROM table or the shift and adder method which is not used a multiplication flag method of case existing of multiplication of the fixed coefficient. The designed encoder shared with the each sub-block and it designed the FPGA using MAX+PLUS2 with VHDL.

OFDM(orthogonal frequency division modulation)은 주파수 선택적인 페이딩 환경에서 높은 전송율과 빠른 속도를 가지는 효율적인 전송 기법이다. 그러나 OFDM 심볼이 시작되는 지점을 정확히 찾지 못하면 시간 영역에서 위상회전으로 인해 수신 데이터의 BER(bit error rate)이 높아질 수 있다. QPSK(quadrature phase shift king)변조를 이용한 OFDM 시스템에선 정수배의 샘플 옵셋만 아니라 소수배의 샘플 옵셋까지 보상하여 동기를 획득해야 한다. QPSK 심볼 복조 시 소수배의 샘플 옵셋이 잔존할 경우 시스템의 수신 성능은 떨어지기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 QPSK변조를 이용한 OFDM 시스템에서 소수배의 샘플 옵셋이 존재할 경우 동기를 획득하는 방법에 대해 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 심볼 타이밍 동기 방법은 수신된 트레이닝 심볼의 상관관계를 이용하여 0.5 샘플 이전과 이후의 충격응답을 각각 구하여 이들을 차를 이용하여 동기를 획득한다. 제안한 심볼 타이밍 동기 기법의 성능은 멀티패스의 모델화 채널을 적용한 모의실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

In the era of 'Untact', virtual reality-based job training platforms are actively being used as part of non-face-to-face education for students with developmental disabilities. Because the people with developmental disabilities may lack sufficient cognitive abilities, it is difficult to conduct untact training seamlessly without the help of a third party. Therefore, it is necessary for training programs to identify the right timing to provide help so that the training can be continued. This research analyzed the visual attention of students with developmental disabilities in virtual reality-based job training program in order to determine the point of time when an intervention is required by the trainee. Results showed that students who completed the mission tended to have intense visual attention on a small number of objects for a certain period of time; the visual attention of the students who failed tended to shift erratically among multiple objects.

In this paper, estimation methods of cell searching and DoA (Direction of Arrival) for mobile relay stations with a uniform linear array are proposed. The proposed methods can improve the performance of cell searching and DoA estimation by removing the effect of STOs when there exist symbol timing offsets (STOs) between the signals received from adjacent base stations,. Also, the proposed methods can improve the performance of DoA estimation significantly when there exists Doppler frequency shift caused by movement of the mobile relay station. The performances and computational complexities of the proposed cell searching and DoA methods are evaluated by computer simulation under Mobile WiMAX environments.

Multi-scale image segmentation is important in many applications such as image stylization and medical diagnosis. This paper proposes a novel segmentation algorithm based on MSER(maximally stable extremal region) which captures multi-scale structure and is stable and efficient. The algorithm collects MSERs and then partitions the image plane by redrawing MSERs in specific order. To denoise and smooth the region boundaries, hierarchical morphological operations are developed. To illustrate effectiveness of the algorithm's multi-scale structure, effects of various types of LOD control are shown for image stylization. The proposed technique achieves this without time-consuming multi-level Gaussian smoothing. The comparisons of segmentation quality and timing efficiency with mean shift-based Edison system are presented.

This paper presents a novel HF band differential quadrature phase-shift keying (DQPSK) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) communication system. The system can deliver 3.6 kbps with a bandwidth of about 3 kHz. In a digital modem, OFDM with 32-point fast Fourier transform is used. In the system, each subcarrier uses DQPSK modulation. Hence, a demodulator does not require carrier phase recovery and symbol timing recovery. And, each subcarrier employs CRC error check code individually. By using CRC code for each subcarrier, bit error caused by multipath fading can be recovered simply.

In this paper, we represent an implementation of burst QPSK receiver for underwater acoustic communication. Transmitter sends 5,000 symbols at 25kHz frequency with 200 kHz D/A sampling rate. The received signal is sampled at 100 kHz. Implemented receiver acquires the frame synchronization, coarse symbol timing estimate, and coarse phase offset estimate using 32 symbol length preamble. The estimated phase offset is used to initiate of 2nd order PLL. The transmission experiment results show that PLL is a mandatory to compensate Doppler shift due to the variation of tidal current.

A gasoline injector rig which can measure cumulative injected fuel mass under a vehicle driving condition was developed. The measurement system consists of an engine control unit (ECU), data acquisition (DAQ) and injected fuel collection system using loadcells. By supplying reconstructed sensor signals which simulate the real vehicle's sensor signals to the ECU, the ECU drives injectors as if they were driven in the vehicle. The vehicle's performance was computer simulated by using $GT-Suite^{(R)}$ software based on both engine part load performance and automatic transmission shift map. Throttle valve position, engine and vehicle speed, air mass flow rate et al. were computer simulated. The used vehicle driving pattern for the simulation was FTP-75 mode. For reconstructing the real vehicle sensor signals which are correspondent to the $GT-Suite^{(R)}$ simulated vehicle's performance, the DAQ systems were used. The injected fuel was collected with mess cylinders. The collected fuel mass in the mess cylinder with elapsed time after starting FTP-75 driving mode was measured using loadcells. The developed method shows highly improved performance in fast timing and accuracy of the cumulative injected fuel mass measurement under the vehicle driven condition.
