This paper describes synchronization concept and algorithm of the reverse DS-SS/TDMA control channel to handle satellite terminals which are distributed through the mission area. Military satellite control channel should have ECCM capabilities and handle more than several hundreds satcom terminals simultaneously. DS-SS/TDMA control channel can satisfy these demand but it spend much synchronization time. Proposed algorithm insert the preamble which is divided with several short sub bins prior to control data and use the parallel matched filtering searcher for each sub bin. As a result of the test, proposed algorithm can acquire most of control channel packet successfully within several milliseconds in severe jamming environment.

In this paper we suggest multimedia synchronization model that is based on the Petri-net and services desirable quality of service requirement. Proposed model applies variable buffer which can be allowed, and then it presents high quality of service and real time characteristics. In this paper we expend Petri-net and propose new multimedia synchronization specification model in PBMSM and apply two analysis method of Petri-net to prove our model suggested. We compared with other models and showed high QoS.

High-speed WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) systems operating in 5GHz band use OFDM transmission technique. OFDM technique transmits data in parallel and has many advantage compared with the serial transmission system-for example, robustness to time variance of channel. OFDM technique use the orthogonal multicarriers. The ICI(InterChannel Interference) caused by the orthogonality destruction between subcarriers. hamper the BER performance. In this paper, we propose the synchronization techniques for high-speed WLAN system designed to support user data rates up to 54Mbps at 5GHz. The proposed synchronization techniques are the reduced complexity structure having the similar performance compared with the conventional synchronization techniques.

Parallel robots are usually used for performing pick-and-place motion to increase productivity in high-speed environments. The present study proposes a high-speed parallel robot and a control approach to improve the tracking performance for the purpose of handling a solar cell. However, the target processes are not limited to the solar cell-handling field. Therefore, a delta-type parallel manipulator is designed, and a ball joint structure is specifically proposed to increase the allowed angle that would meet the required workspace. A control algorithm considering the synchronization between multiple joints in a closed-chain mechanism is also suggested to improve the tracking performance, where the tracking and synchronization errors are simultaneously considered. In addition, a prototype machine with the proposed ball joint is implemented. A satisfactory tracking performance is achieved by applying the proposed control algorithm, with a cycle time of 0.3 s for a 0.1 kg payload.

In the online game that thousands of participants connect to a game world by using Internet simultaneously, participants of the game world may have different hardwares and network environments, and messages of participants should be synchronization. A solution for the synchronization problem is to wait for a certain amount of time until the server processes the message. It is not easy to determine a suitable waiting period because of the trade-off between the fairness and the responsiveness. In this paper we propose a method to decide a waiting period by considering features of the MMOFPS game and the probability of interaction among participants. We implement the proposed method and perform experiments for the performance evaluation.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid transceiver for underwater acoustic communication, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater channel environments. It is designed in the digital domain except for amplifiers and implemented by using a multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) system. The digital modulation technique is quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) and frame synchronization is an energy (non-coherent) detection scheme based on the quadrature receiver structure. DSP implementation is based on block data parallel architecture (BDPA). We shaw experimental results in th? underwater anechoic basin at KRISO. The results indicate that the frame synchronization is performed without PLL. Also, we shaw that the adaptive equalizer can compensate frame synchronization error and the correction capability is dependent on the length of equalizer.

The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of non-synchronous sensing when using wireless sensors on structural identification and to attempt correcting such errors in order to obtain a better identification result. The sources causing non-synchronous sensing are discussed first and the magnitudes of such synchronization errors are estimated based on time stamps of data samples collected from Imote2 sensors; next the impact of synchronization errors on power spectral densities (PSDs) and correlation functions of output responses are derived analytically; finally a new method is proposed to correct such errors. In this correction method, the corrected PSDs of output responses are estimated using non-synchronous samples based on a modified FFT. The effect of synchronization errors in the measured output responses on structural identification and the application of this correction method are demonstrated using simulation examples. The simulation results show that even small synchronization errors in the output responses can distort the identified modal and stiffness parameters remarkably while the parameters identified using the proposed correction method can achieve high accuracy.

In this paper, we propose a schedulatility analysis method for real-time programs. Several approaches to anlayzing schedulability have been developed, but since these approaches use a fixed priority scheduling method and/or traverse all possible state spaces, there take place exponential time and space complexity of these methods, Therefore it is necessary to reduce the state space and detect schedulability at earlier time. Our schedulability analysis method uses a minimum unit time taken to terminate synchronization action, a minimum unit time taken to terminate actions after synchronization, and a deadline of processes to detect unschedulability at earlier time and dynamic scheduling scheme to reduce state space. We conclude that our method can detected unschedulability earlier 50 percent unit time than Fredette's method.

Support for the precise time synchronization of EtherCAT, known as distributed clock (DC), enables the design of highly synchronized operations in distributed real-time systems. This study evaluates the performance of the EtherCAT DC through extensive experiments in a real automation system. We constructed an EtherCAT control system using Xenomai and IgH EtherCAT stack, and analyzed the clock deviation for different devices in the network. The results of the evaluation revealed that the accuracy of the synchronized clock is affected by several factors such as the number of slave devices, period of drift compensation, and type of system time base. In particular, we found that careful decision regarding the system time base is required because it has a fundamental effect on the master operation, which results in significantly different performance characteristics.

A wireless positioning system using ultra-wideband (UWB) for indoor wireless positioning uses ranging data in order to accurately estimate location. Commonly, ranging uses time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA) based on arrival time. The most fundamental issue in the ranging for wireless positioning is to obtain clock synchronization among the sensor nodes and to correct an error caused by the relative clock offset from each node. In this paper, we propose ranging and positioning technique using common clock in order to solve both clock synchronization and clock offset problems. To verify the performance of proposed, we simulated ranging and positioning in channel model introduced by IEEE 802.15.4a Task Group and then results show that location estimation is unaffected by clock offset.
