Recently, sub-micron CMOS technologies have taken the place of III-V materials in a number of areas in integrated circuit designs, in particular even for the applications of gjgabit optical communication applications due to its low cost, high integration level, low power dissipation, and short turn-around time characteristics. In this paper, a four-channel transimpedance amplifier (TIA) array is realized in a standard 0.35mm CMOS technology Each channel includes an optical PIN photodiode and a TIA incorporating the fully differential regulated cascode (RGC) input configuration to achieve effectively enhanced transconductance(gm) and also exploiting the inductive peaking technique to extend the bandwidth. Post-layout simulations show that each TIA demonstrates the mid-band transimpedance gain of 59.3dBW, the -3dB bandwidth of 2.45GHz for 0.5pF photodiode capacitance, and the average noise current spectral density of 18.4pA/sqrt(Hz). The TIA array dissipates 92mw p in total from a single 3.3V supply The four-channel RGC TIA array is suitable for low-power, high-speed optical interconnect applications.

In this paper, the RF-modules composed of front-end, frequency synthesizer, modulator/demodulator and power control multi channel WLL personal system for W-CDMA using 10 [MHz] RF channel bandwidth has been implemented and considered. The measured transmission power is 250 [mW] which is very close to the required value. The measured flatness of power at the final output stage is ${\pm}1.5[dB]$ over the required bandwidth of the receiver. In addition, it is found that the chip rate transmitting spread signal is set to 8.192 [MHz], the required rate. The frequencies of RF_LO signal and LO signal of the modulator and the demodulator measured by a frequency synthesizer are satisfied with design requirements. The operating range of the receiving strength signal indicator and AGC units shows 60 [dB] respectively. Also the measured phasor diagram and eye pattern for deciding the RF modules compatible with baseband digital signal processing part are shown good results.

Based on the performance analyses for transmission channel and signal characteristics in digital satellite broadcasting system. the optimal design parameter values for system using QPSK modulation technique were proposed in this paper. The proper performance degradation were of 2.0dB for channel characteristics. O.4dB for transmission signal characteristics and 0.2dB for receiver characteristics. respectively. In this case. the design objectives for system parameters were within ${\pm}\;0.5dB$ for gain flatness in 27MHz bandwidth. and O.1nsec/MHz and $0.2sec/MHz^2$ for linear and parabolic group delay. respectively. Also. the optimal parameter values that provide the maximum availability were of OdB OBO for satellite transponder TWTA. and the optimal bandwidth for PLL circuit was of 40kHz with 0.707 damping factor. These analyses and design values can be available for high data rate transmission system via satellite.

This paper describes and analyzes the performance of MB-OFDM UWB system that is suggested as one of standards in IEEE 802.15 TG3a for UWB application. UMBchannel model that has been contributed in IEEE 802.15 SG3a is a wideband channel model of 6Ghz bandwidth, so we modify it to have 3 subband channels that are obtained by filtering conventional U Channel, considering center frequency hopping and system bandwidth. From simulations, we compare performances of MB-OFDM system in AWGN and WB channel and verify the frequency and time domain diversity gains from time End frequency spreading technique. We also compare and analyze the performance of proposed SFBC MB-OFDM with that of conventional MB-OFDM system. Simulation results show SFBC MB-OFDM system outperforms conventional MB-OFDM system about 1.5dB of Eb/No at target BER of 10$^{-m4}$./.

In a wireless communication system, increasing the channel capacity with a limited frequency is a problem in all frequency bands. Increasing the frequency bandwidth and increasing the output can increase the channel capacity, but sometimes the communication is not possible due to interference noise. If the radio frequency allocation is set to world standardization such as WRC or ITU-R, each country has strict control over regulations. This is because one wireless communication system should not affect other systems. We present the results of a study on scenarios and analysis of radio waves to be installed inside and outside the aircraft without interfering with the wireless LAN.

We propose a new photorefractive demultiplexer(DMUX) which can select the 16 channel signal in WDM optical communication system using the wavelength selectivity and the demultiplexing property through multiple recording of holographic volume grating in photorefractive Fe-LiNbO$_{3}$ crystal. For the multiple writing of the 16 channels having uniform diffraction efficiency, the rotation multiplexing technique and the exposure time schedule are used. Designed DMUX has the 16 channels with 0.5nm spacing between 670nm and 677.5nm and the bandwidth of 0.16nm. From the experimental results, the diffraction efficiency of each channel is 8.3 $\pm$0.62%, the optical loss from fresnel reflection and absorption on the crystal is 0.4cm-1, the 3㏈ bandwidth is 0.16 $\pm$0.005nm and the channel spacing is 0.46~0.5nm.

LTE's extension for unlicensed spectrum called Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) is equipped with Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) designed similar with the backoff mechanism of Wi-Fi for coexistence. However, Wi-Fi's backoff mechanism has not evolved from its old design for compatibility with legacy devices, thus LAA's LBT is not efficient either in utilizing spectrum. If LAA operates with no Wi-Fi systems in proximity, it can run more efficient LBT. In this paper, we propose Narrowband Clear Channel Assessment (NCCA) for narrowband transmission. In NCCA, an LAA node performs LBT in either wide or each narrow bandwidth segment. This allows multiple LAA nodes to perform simultaneous transmissions in orthogonal bandwidth segments in the same time slot. We design four variants of NCCA implementation and model their performance using a mathematical model. The coexistence performance of NCCA with conventional wideband nodes and the accuracy of the model are shown via simulation.

This paper estimated communication parameters according to underwater channel environment of lake for underwater acoustic communication. This paper calculated coherence time and coherence bandwidth through two experiments in actual lake environments. In both experiments, the chirp signal for channel estimation and the BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying) signal for calculating the bit error rate were transmitted. In each experiment, the distance between transmitter and receiver was 300 m to 400 m, and 500 m to 600 m. The coherence times calculated in experiment 1 and experiment 2 are 175 msec and 340 msec, and the coherence bandwidths are 10 Hz and 5.71 Hz, respectively. It is confirmed that the experimental results are more appropriate because the synchronization and the bit error rate performance are better only when the length of the synchronization signal and the interval of the pilot signal in the frame are shorter than the coherence time.

With the increased desire of TV consumers for interactivity and personalization, IPTV has been rapidly spread in recent years. IPTV can provide a variety of services through hundreds of channels, but the explosion of TV channels makes users even more difficult to find their desired contents. In addition, the channel zapping delay of IPTV is serious due to the limited network bandwidth. To resolve these problems, this paper distinguishes hot and cold channels by exploiting the real-time viewing rate as well as each user's viewing history, and then, maintains hot channels in the hot list, which is searched first during channel navigation and also prefetched to support the preview of channels. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme improves the IPTV channel seek time significantly compared to existing channel seeking interfaces.

In this paper, we propose the channel estimation scheme for Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) downlink system. The proposed scheme uses the fast fourier transform (FFT) interpolation scheme for the user moving at a high speed. The FFT interpolation scheme converts the channel frequency response obtained from least square (LS) or minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation scheme to time domain channel impulse response by taking the inverse FFT (IFFT). After windowing the channel response in the time domain, we can obtain the channel frequency response by taking the FFT. We perform the system level simulation based on 20MHz bandwidth of 3GPP LTE-A downlink system. Simulation results show that the proposed channel estimation scheme can improve signal-to-noise-plus-interference ratio (SINR), throughput, and spectral efficiency of conventional system.
