It is known that the detection of hopping signals without any information about hopping duration and hopping frequency is rather difficult. This paper considers the blind detection of hopping signal's information such as hopping duration and hopping frequency from the sampled wideband signals. In order to find hopping information from the wideband signals, multiple narrow-band filters are required in general, which leads to huge implementation complexity. Instead, this paper employs the polyphase DFT(discrete Fourier transform) filterbank to reduce the implementation complexity. This paper propose hopping signal detection algorithm from the polyphase DFT filterbank output. Specifically, based on the binary image processing, the proposed algorithm is developed to decrease the memory size and H/W complexity. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through the computer simulation and FPGA (field programmable gate array) implementation.

We describe and anlayzes the methodology and implementation results of H / W configuration and signal characteristics analysis algorithm for analyzing equipment for analyzing OFDMA physical layer based on 802.16e. Recently, demand for signal analysis of instruments that analyze these signals with the development of digital communication signals is rapidly increasing. Accordingly, it is necessary to develop signal analysis equipment capable of analyzing characteristics of a broadband communication signal using a wideband digital signal processing module. In this paper, we have studied the basic theory of OFDMA in order to devise a device capable of analyzing characterisitcs of broadband communication signals. Second, the structure of OFDMA transmitter/receiver was examined. Third, a wideband digitizer was implemented. we design Wimax signal analysis algorithm based on OFDMA among broadband communication methods and propose Wimax physical layer analysis S/W implementation through I, Q signals.

In this paper, the results of experiments conducted in indoor wired and outdoor wireless environments to reduce the interference impact of 5G mobile communication on fixed satellite services using RF Interference Reduction Module (IRM) are presented. Test results for interference signals with a 100MHz bandwidth in a wired environment demonstrate that RF IRM can reduce interference by more than 20dB in a 100MHz bandwidth. The performance of RF IRM was also tested in the S-band wireless environments. In the S-band wireless environments with interference signals having a 20MHz bandwidth, RF IRM exhibits interference reduction performance of 12-15dB, for signals with a 50MHz bandwidth, it shows 10-12dB interference reduction, and for signals with a 100MHz bandwidth, it demonstrates 5-10dB interference reduction. This paper shows that RF IRM can be used not only within transceivers but also in wireless environments to mitigate interference.

A novel decision criterion for weak M-ary signals is proposed in this paper. In the sense of minimizing the error probability, the proposed decision criterion is optimum when the signal strength approaches zero. In Part 1, the proposed detection criterion is proposed and investigated in detail, some interesting properties of the proposed decision criterion are described, and examples of decision regions are obtained. Based on the proposed detection criterion, a detection scheme for ultra wideband multiple access systems is investigated in the presence of impulsive interference in Part 2.

In this paper, we present a candidate high data rate space time coded OFDM system for short range personal networking. The system transmits the complex space time coded signals with a hybrid orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based on ultra wideband (UWB) pulses. The transmitted signals are sparse pulse trains modulated by a frequency selected from a properly designed set of frequencies. Additionally, a widely linear (WL) receive filter and a space time frequency transmission are designed by using two simple parallel linear detectors. To overcome the deeply fade in the propagation system, a beamforming combined with space time block codes also 따 e briefly discussed.

Ultra Wideband (UWB) Radar is a high-resolution radar for short distance detection which uses signals transmitted and received by each antennas in order to detect a target. It is possible to detect the respiration and heartbeat of a person without contact It is getting more and more often utilized since it is not affected by physical environment. In this paper, we implement an algorithm to detect human respiration and heartbeat rate using UWB radar signal. We process radar signals reflected from human body using Median filter, Kalman filter, Band Pass filter and so on. We also use CZT to extract breathing and heart rate. ECG (Electrocardiogram) was used for comparison of heartbeat data and we confirm that each data of ECG and UWB Radar were more than 98% identical each other.

In this paper, the adaptive chirp beamforming method is proposed to solve the bias problem in the direction-of-arrivals (DOAs) estimation of the wideband chirp signals which have an identical time-frequency parameter and are emanated from different directions. The source location bias results from the interferences impinging on the array from the other directions. The proposed method exploits the time-frequency structure of the chirp signal based on STMV (STeered Minimum Valiance) to improve the DOA estimation performance by minimizing the chirp interferences effectively. Simulation results show the DOA estimation performance achieved by the proposed method as compared to the conventional methods.

The implementation and design of the wideband IFIU using aperture open loop resonator and reversed phase technique to reduce the local oscillator leakage signal was represented in this paper. The local oscillator leakage signal is generated in stage of frequency conversion, especially in frequency conversion of fully digital modulation signal close to DC signal. The leakage signal and spurious signals, which have effects on adjacent channel or in-band channel as interference signals, were reduced below -60 dBc for 45 Mbps and 155 Mbps IF interface units. The group delay for both IFIUs shows low ripple characteristics of 15 ns and 8 ns, respectively. Also, the amplitude ripple characteristic in 150 MHz bandwidth with L-band center frequency satisfies the required specification of 2 dB. The implemented IFIU provides the required specifications for wideband satellite communication system.

This paper proposes a new distance estimation technique for indoor localization in ultra wideband (UWB) systems. The proposed technique is based on recurrent neural network (RNN), one of the deep learning methods. The RNN is known to be useful to deal with time series data, and since UWB signals can be seen as a time series data, RNN is employed in this paper. Specifically, the transmitted UWB signal passes through IEEE802.15.4a indoor channel model, and from the received signal, the RNN regressor is trained to estimate the distance from the transmitter to the receiver. To verify the performance of the trained RNN regressor, new received UWB signals are used and the conventional threshold based technique is also compared. For the performance measure, root mean square error (RMSE) is assessed. According to the computer simulation results, the proposed distance estimator is always much better than the conventional technique in all signal-to-noise ratios and distances between the transmitter and the receiver.

Wideband speech, characterized by a bandwidth of about 7 kHz (50-7000 Hz), provides a substantial quality improvement in terms of naturalness and intelligibility. Although higher data rates are required, it has extended its application to audio and video conferencing, high-quality multimedia communications in mobile links or packet-switched transmissions, and digital AM broadcasting. In this paper, we present a new bandwidth-scalable coder for wideband speech and audio signals. The proposed coder spits 8kHz signal bandwidth into two narrow bands, and different coding schemes are applied to each band. The lower-band signal is coded using the ITU-T G.729/G.729E coder, and the higher-band signal is compressed using a new algorithm based on the gammatone filter bank with an invertible auditory model. Due to the split-band architecture and completely independent coding schemes for each band, the output speech of the decoder can be selected to be a narrowband or wideband according to the channel condition. Subjective tests showed that, for wideband speech and audio signals, the proposed coder at 14.2/18 kbit/s produces superior quality to ITU-T 24 kbit/s G.722.1 with the shorter algorithmic delay.
