Many of the currently used PN code acquisition algorithms detect the phase of the incoming PN signal on the basis of ML estimation principle and utilize statistics grounded in taking inner products. As an extension of PN code acquisition algorithm using one auxiliary code introduced by Salih in 1996, we propose a more and optimal (hardware / time / space complexity wise) algorithm by using a vector space approach. We outline some important differences between our algorithm and that introduced by Salih and in the process point out some advantages of our algorithm.

Ward에 의해 제안된 순차적 추정에 기반을 둔 의사 잡음 부호 획득 방법은 비교적높은 신호대잡음비 환경에서는 우수한 성능을 보이지만, 낮은 신호대잡음비 환경에서는 그 성능이 크게 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 부호 획득에서 실제적으로 관심을 두고 있는 낮은 신호대잡음비 환경에서도 우수한 성능을 지니는 시드 누적 순차적 추정기법과 이에 기반을 둔 부호 획득 시스템을 제안하고, 제안한 시스템의 평균 획득 시간 성능을 분석한다. 제안한 시드 누적 순차적 추정 기법을 이용한 부호 획득 시스템은 기존의 순차적 추정 기법을 이용한 부호 획득 시스템에 비해 낮은 신호대잡음비 환경에서 매우 우수한 성능을 지니며, 그 성능향상의 정도가 의사 잡음 부호의 주기가 증가할수록 더 커짐을 보인다.

A heart diagnosis system adopts hundreds of Superconducting Quantum Interface Device(SQUID) sensors for precision MCG(Magnetocardiogram) or MEG(Magnetoencephalogram) signal acquisitions. This system requires correct and real-time data acquisition from the sensors in a required sampling interval, i.e., 1 mili-second. This paper presents our hardware design and test results, to acquire data from 256 channel analog signal with 1-ksample/sec speed, using 12-bit 8-channel ADC devices, SPI interfaces, parallel interfaces, and 8-bit microprocessors. We chose to implement parallel data transfer between microprocessors as an effective way of achieving such data collection. Our result concludes that the data collection can be done in 250 ${\mu}sec$ time-interval.

In this paper, we have developed a PCM signal analysis system which can analyze status of signals sent from/received to the TDX-families PCM signaling service equipment. We propose the modified DFT to analyze the status of an acquired CM signal, discuss the algorithm and the discrimination of the analyzed signal.

본 논문은 ultra-wideband (UWB) 신호 획득 시의 검파 성능을 향상시키기 위해 여러 상관기 출력값을 결합하여 이용하는 2단계 검파 기법을 제안한다. UWB 신호 에너지는 다중경로 채널의 영향으로 여러 상관기 출력값에 걸쳐 흩어지게 되므로, 단일 상관기 출력값에는 전체 신호 에너지의 일부분만이 포함된다. 따라서 UWB 신호 검파를 위해 단일 상관기 출력값을 결정 변수로 사용하는 것은 검파 성능을 떨어뜨리는 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서 제안한 2단계 검파 기법은 여러 상관기 출력값들을 결합하여 결정 변수로 이용함으로써 다중경로로 인해 흩어진 신호 에너지를 모아서 신호 검파에 사용할 수 있으므로 단일 상관기 출력값을 결정 변수로 이용하는 이제까지의 기법에 비해 더 나은 검파 성능을 갖는다. 다양한 UWB 채널 환경에서의 모의실험 결과를 통해 제안한 기법이 이제까지의 기법에 비해 더 좋은 검파 성능을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

The wearable sensor glove was developed using EDA sensors and conducting fabric. EDA(Electro-dermal Activity) signal is an electric response of human skin. There are SIL(Skin Impedance Level) and SIR(Skin Impedance Response) in EDA. SIL consists mostly of a DC component while SIR consists of an AC component. The relationship between drowsiness and the EDA signal is utilized. EDA sensors were made using a conducting fabric instead of AgCl electrodes, for a more suitable, more wearable device. The EDA signal acquisition module was made by connecting the EDA sensor gloves through conductive fabric lines. Also, the EDA signal acquisition module can be connected to a PC that shows the results of the EDA signal processing analysis and gives proper feedback to the user. This system can be used in various applications to detect drowsiness and prevent accidents from drowsiness for automobile drivers.

A heart diagnosis system adopts Superconducting Quantum Interface Device(SQUD) sensors for precise MCG(MagnetoCardioGram) signal acquisitions. Such system needs to deal with hundreds of sensors, requiring fast signal sampling md precise analog-to-digital conversions(ADC). Our development of hardware board, processing 64-channel 12-bit in 1 ks/s speed, is built by using 8-channel ADC chips, 8-bit microprocessors, SPI interfaces, and specially designed parallel data transfers between microprocessors to meet the 1ks/s, i.e. 1 mili-second sampling interval. We extend the design into 256-channel hardware and analyze the speed .using the measured data from the 64-channel hardware. Since our design exploits full parallel processing, Assembly level coding, and NOP(No Operation) instruction for timing control, the design provides expandability and lowest system timing margin. Our result concludes that the data collection with 256-channel analog input signals can be done in 201.5us time-interval which is much shorter than the required 1 mili-second period.

This paper proposes an efficient code acquisition scheme for direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) based real-time locating systems (RTLS). The proposed scheme employs multiple bit integration to significantly decrease false alarms when no packet signal is transmitted and increase the detection probability when the RTLS tags are excited. The performance of the proposed code acquisition scheme is analyzed and numerically evaluated, and compared with those of single-dwell and traditional double-dwell code acquisition schemes. The simulation results show that the proposed multiple-bit integration scheme outperforms single-dwell and double-dwell schemes.

In this paper, we propose a fast code acquisition method that can reduce drastically the mean acquisition time of the direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) system by using and integrated search and verification (ISV) scheme. The proposed method performs simultaneously the search and verification processes at every search cell, through storing sufficiently long signal samples enough to perform the verification process form the previously received samples. We analyze and acquisition performance in the case of Gaussian channel to evaluate theacquisition perfomrance of the proposed method. From the simple numericl analysis result, we have shown that the acquisition performance of the proposed method is better than that of the conventional serial search method, and the performance improvement becomes more prominent as the channel environment becomes degraded.

A digital seismic data acquisition and processing system using a PC has been developed in order to replace the analog data acquisition system of shallow marine seismic survey. An A/D converter that has 12bits of resolution and 225KHz of conversion rate was ued to acquire data, and a data acquisition software was developed as a Windows program which provides convenience of use. Raw data acquired at field has been saved to the hard-disk simultaneously. The signal to noise ratio, vertical and horizontal resolution could be improved by a digital data processing of the raw data. The digital processing of the raw data includss gain recovery, filtering, deconvolution, and muting. With the prediction deconvolution algorithm multiple reflections appearing on the shallow marine seismic section could be removed successfully.
