A multi-channel audio CODEC with inter-channel interference suppression is proposed, in which channel switching noise-referred sampling error is significantly reduced. It also supports a coarse/fine mode operation for fast frequency tracking with good harmonic performance. The proposed multi-channel audio CODEC was designed in a 65 nm CMOS process. Measured results indicated that SNR and SNDR of ADC were 93 dB and 84dB, respectively, with SNDR improved by 43 dB. Those of DAC were 96 dB and 87 dB, respectively, with SNDR improved by 45 dB when all the channels are running independently.

Dynamically exploiting unused-spectrum, cognitive radio has been proposed to solve spectrum utilization problem. In cognitive radio, it is important to minimize the interference to primary service as well as to provide efficient channel allocation. In this paper, we propose a multi-channel allocation scheme based on spectrum hole prediction. Proposed scheme considered both interference length and channel capacity to limit the interference to primary user as well as to enhance system performance. Simulation results show the proposed scheme improves the system throughput.

In digital mobile communication system, the transmission errors affect the quality of output speech seriously. There are many error concealment techniques using a posteriori probability which provides information about any transmitted parameter. They need knowledge about channel transition probability as well as the 1st order Markov transition probability of codec parameters for estimation of transmitted parameters. However, in applications of mobile communication systems, the channel transition probability varies depending on nonstationary channel characteristics. The mismatch of designed channel transition probability of the estimator to actual channel transition probability degrades the performance of the estimator. In this paper, we proposed a new parameter estimator which adapts to the channel characteristics using short time average of maximum a posteriori probabilities(MAPs). The proposed scheme, when applied to the LSP parameter estimation, performed better than the conventional estimator which do not adapt to the channel characteristics.

In this paper, we propose a new channel estimation scheme for amplify and forward cooperative diversity with relay selection. In order to select best relay, it is necessary to know channel state information (CSI) at the destination. Most of the previous works, however, assume that perfect CSI is available at the destination. In addition, when the number of relay is increased it is difficult to estimate CSI through all relays within coherence time of a channel because of the large amount of frame overhead for channel estimation. In a proposed channel estimation scheme, each terminal has distinct pilot signal which is orthogonal each other. By using orthogonal property of pilot signals, CSI is estimated over two pilot signal transmission phases so that frame overhead is reduced significantly. Due to the orthogonal property among pilot signals, estimation error does not depend on the number of relays. Simulation result shows that the proposed channel estimation scheme provides accurate CSI at the destination.

Underwater acoustic communication has multipath error because of reflection by sea-level and sea-bottom. The multipath of underwater channel causes receive signal to make error floor. In this paper, we propose the underwater communication system using various channel coding schemes such as RS coding, convolutional code, turbo code and concatenated code for overcoming the multipath effect in underwater channel. As shown in simulation results, characteristic of multipath error is similar to that of random error. So interleaver has not effect on error correcting. For correcting of error floor by multipath, it is necessary to use strong channel codes like turbo code. Turbo code is one of the iterative codes. And the performance of concatenated codes including RS code has better performance than using singular channel codes.

목적: Guinea pig heart의 ATP sensitive $K^{＋}$ channel xenopus oocyte에 발현시켜 연구하고져 본 실험을 행하였다. 실험방법: 기니픽 심장으로부터 ,RNA를 분리하여 50ng/$\mu$l의 농도로 50nl를 xenopusdp 주입하였다. Xenpus oocyte에서 conventional electrode를 이용 막전휘를 측정하였고, pH selective 미세전극으로 세포내 pH를 측정하였다. 막전위에 미치는 potassium channel opener, blocker, KCN의 작용을 관찰하였다. 결과: 기니픽 심장 mRNA를 주입하거나 주입하지 않은 xenopus oocyte에서 $K^{＋}$channel opener인 cromakalin, RP49356등은 과분극을 일으키지 못하였다. 그러나 세포내 ATP 감소제인 KCN은 농도 의존적으로 과분극을 일으켰으나 ,glibenclamide에 의해 차단되는 않았다. mRNA를 주입한 oocyte에서 Na-H 자극제인 NH$_4$Cl은 pH 변동을 일으켜 NA-H exchange를 expression 시켰다. 결론: Xenopus oocyte는 cromakalin등에 의해 open되는 $K^{＋}$channel 은 없었고, 기니픽 심근의 ATP sensitive $K^{＋}$channel로 expression 되지 않았으나 Na-H exchange 는 expression 됨을 알 수 있었다. KCN으로 open 되는 $K^{＋}$channel이 있었으나 glibenclamide에는 차단되지 않는 channel이였다.

The Gate-Induced-Drain-Leakage (GIDL) current with channel doping and width dependence are characterized. The GIDL currents are found to increase in MOSFETs with higher channel doping levels and the observed GIDL current is generated by the band-to-band-tunneling (BTBT) of electron through the reverse-biased channel-to-drain p-n junction. A BTBT model is used to fit the measured GIDL currents under different channel-doping levels. Good agreement is obtained between the modeled results and experimental data. The increase of the GIDL current at narrower widths in mainly caused by the stronger gate field at the edge of the shallow trench isolation (STI). As channel width decreases, a larger portion of the GIDL current is generated at the channel-isolation edge. Therefore, the stronger gate field at the channel-isolation edge causes the total unit-width GIDL current to increases for narrow-width devices.

This paper presents an effective IPTV channel control algorithm considering network utilization and channel zapping time. The proposed algorithm keeps maximum average channel zapping time of each subscriber in the tolerable range with low network bandwidth usage by adjusting the type of each channel and the number of additional intra frames inserted into each channel. Finally, experimental results are provided to show the performance of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we analyze the burst error performance of LDPC codes on perpendicular magnetic recording(PMR) channel. When burst error is generated on PMR channel, we use channel state information(CSI) to set the LLR information of channel detector zero. We consider the rate 0.94 LDPC codes and use SOVA as channel detector with low complexity.

In speech coding scheme, because information bits have different error sensitivities over channel errors, the channel coder for combining with speech coding should be realized by the variable coding rate considering the bit importance of speech information bits. In realizing the 4 kbps channel coder for 12kbps speech, this paper have chosen the channel coding method by analyzing the hard-decision post-decoding error rate of RCPC(Rate Compatible Punctured Convolutional) codes and bit error sensitivity of 12 kbps speech. Under the coherent QPSK and Rayleigh fading channel, the performance analysis has showed that 10dB gain was obtained in speech SEGSNR by 4-level uneuqal error protection, which was compared with the caseof no channel coding at 7dB channel SNR.
