The pitch control system in wind turbines becomes more and more important as the wind turbines are larger in multi-MW size. PI controller has been applied in most pitch controllers and it has been known that gain-scheduling is essential for pitch control of wind turbines. A demo model of 2 MW wind turbine which represents the whole dynamics of wind turbine including dynamic behaviors of blade, tower and rotational shaft is given in the commercial Bladed S/W for real wind turbines. In this paper, some results on step responses of the pitch PI controller and effectiveness of gain-scheduled pitch PI controller are presented through the Bladed S/W for the 2 MW wind turbine.

Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission / reception is being studied in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) for future evolution of the $3^{rd}$ Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) LTE. Support of soft handover is essential for improving the performance of cell edge users. CoMP provides a natural framework for enabling soft handover in the LTE system. This paper evaluates the soft handover gain in LTE-A downlink. Mathematical analysis of signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) gain and the handover margins for soft handover and hard handover are derived. CoMP system model is developed and an inter-cell and intra-cell interference model is derived, taking into account the pathloss, shadowing, cell loading, and traffic activity. Reference signal received power (RSRP) is used to define the triggers and the measurements for soft handover. Our results indicate that parameter choices such as handover margin and the CoMP set size impact CoMP performance gain.

In this paper, a double-layered frequency selective surface(FSS) superstrate was built and tested. The unit cell of the proposed FSS consists of a ring slot and a dipole-shaped structure and shows a complementary frequency response. Each unit cell is printed on two sides of a substrate. By using these double-layered structures, the first resonant frequency of the pass-band can be lowered. As a result, the size of the unit cell is minimized and the spacing between the other cells is reduced. The proposed FSS-dipole composite antenna is designed for the gain enhancement of wide-band code division multiple access(WCDMA) frequency bands(1.92~2.17 GHz) with a low quality factor(Q=0.17). To verify the gain enhancement performance of the FSS, an FSS-dipole composite antenna was created. Although the FSS layer enhances the gain of the primary radiation source of the dipole antenna, the FSS-dipole complex antenna cannot show a uniform gain over the entire desired frequency band. The experimental results show a gain enhancement of 3 dBi with an FSS superstrate in the WCDMA frequency band.

ATM/AAL2는 패킷의 길이가 작은 지연 민감성 응용 서비스의 효율적인 전송을 위하여 표준화된 전송 방식으로 UMTS망의 Node-B와 RNC사이의 $I_{ub}$ 인터페이스에서 음성 및 데이터 트래픽을 전송하기 위하여 사용되고 있다. AAL2의 성능을 분석하기 위하여 단대단으로 UMTS 망의 성능을 분석할 수 있는 시뮬레이터를 개발하였으며 UTRAN에서 음성 및 데이터 서비스에 따른 시뮬레이션을 실행하였다. 결과로 $I_{ub}$ 인터페이스에서 AAL2 다중화의 이득은 Node-B에서 최대 17%정도 높으며 데이터 트래픽의 경우 음성 트래픽에 비하여 대역이득이 적다는 것을 발견하였다. 또한 집선기에서 대역이득은 트래픽의 양이 증가할수록 감소하는 결과를 볼 수 있었다.

This research devoted to develop an incubator that could make an optimum environment condition according to days of age for suckling pigs to decrease the mortality and improve the rate of the weight gain of the suckling pigs. Results obtained from this research summarized as follows: 1. Several experiments were carried out at the farm to find the effect of incubator developed for suckling pigs on weight gain by season. The total average gain of the weight of the treatment group was around 6∼22kg, and 6∼23kg higher than control group at the first experiment (April 19), at the second (July 30), and at the third (September 23), year of 2000 experiment, respectively. There were no significant differences ($\alpha$=5%) of the total weight gain among treatment groups. There was, however, a significant difference ($\alpha$=5%) of the total weight gain between the control and treatment groups and it was considered to be that the incubator had efficiency for weight gain of the suckling pigs. 2. The survival rate of the control group was 87% in the total sample number of 92, meanwhile, which of the experiment group was 98% in the total sample number of 50 suckling pigs. 3. Finally, economic analysis was executed for suckling pigs based on a farm size of breeding 500 sows. The results showed that a break-even point was around 9 months and the annual profit of ￦52,265,694 was expected after the break-even point.

There are many researches to increase bandwidth of the microstrip patch antenna for wireless LAN. In spite of broad bandwidth, Bow-Tie microstrip patch antenna, broadband microstrip patch antenna, has disadvantages that are low gain and big size. In this paper, stacked Bow-Tie microstrip patch antenna for wireless LAN is designed in 5.725∼5.825㎓ band. This antenna has characteristics that are broadband bandwidth, high gain and small size compared with microstrip patch antenna. In simulated results, the return loss is -34.2㏈ at 5.78㎓ and bandwidth is 11.345% for VSWR 2：1 and 7.75% for VSWR 1.5：1. In measured results, the return loss is -38.45㏈ at 5.78㎓ and bandwidth is 13% for VSWR 2：1 and 5.6% for VSWR 1.5：1. It has 59.37$^{\circ}$-3㏈ beam width and 6.5㏈ gain.

In this dissertation ultra-broadband power amplifier(UPA) was designed and fabricated using negative feedback technique. UPA was made of pre-amplifier, drive amplifier and power amplifier. Negative feedback technique was used to achieve ultra-broadband performance. Designed power amplifier has 30dB gain and 2W output power.

In this paper, a small size, $7{\times}6mm^2$, Low Noise Amplifier(LNA) using LTCC process was fabricated with multi-layer structure for 2.4GHz wireless LAN. The measured results demonstrate that the bandwidth is 130 MHz, and the operating frequency is from 2.39GHz to 2.52GHz. The power gain is above 7.3 dB in the operating frequency range and the gain flatness is 0.5 dB. The maximum S11 is -4 dB and the maximum S22 is -7.5 dB. The noise figure is less than 1.83 dB. The measured power gain, S11 and S22 were had poorer performance than the simulation results. The reason for this discrepancy is that the input and output matching was not performed exactly. However, the noise figure of the LTCC low noise amplifier is better than simulation result. It is found that it is possible to fabricate a LTCC low noise amplifier in a small size.

LMS알고리즘은 잡음이 섞인 신호로부터 원 신호를 복원하는데 자주 사용된다. 이 LMS알고리즘의 주된 결점은 음성 신호 파워에 따라 선형적으로 EMSE(Excess Mean Square Error)가 증가한다. 그 결과 최적의 값에서 큰 EMSE 때문에 성능의 효율성이 떨어진다. 이러한 결점은 적은 스텝사이즈를 선택함으로서 해결 할 수 있지만, 수렴율이 늦어지는 단점이 있어, 빠른 수렴율과 낮은 EMSE를 동시에 만족할 수 있는 값이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 IGC(lnstantaneous Gain Control) 알고리즘을 음성신호가 존재하는 경우에서 제안한다. 시뮬레이션은 음성신호와 가우시안 잡음을 이용하여 수행하였고, 수렴율, 잡음제거, 그리고 EMSE에서 LMS알고리즘보다 IGC알고리즘이 우수하다는 것을 보인다.
