Disclosed herein is a ranging apparatus and method. The ranging apparatus includes a correlation unit for correlating OFDMA reception signals with inverse fast Fourier transformed ranging codes, and outputting correlation result values. A threshold determination unit determines a threshold value depending on characteristics of the reception signals. A comparison unit estimates a delay time by selecting a maximum value from among the correlation result values, and detects a ranging code by comparing the maximum value with the threshold value, and then outputs and feeds back the ranging code and the delay time when the maximum value is equal to or greater than the threshold value. A weight multiplication unit delays the ranging code by the delay time, multiplies a weight by the delayed ranging code, and outputs a resulting value. A calculation unit subtracts the resulting value from the reception signals, and provides adjusted reception signals.

An image classification apparatus and method for Automatic White Balance (AWB) are provided. An input image is divided into blocks including pluralities of pixels. A hue value and a chroma value are calculated for each of the blocks. A color-changed block is detected by calculating, for each one of the blocks, differences between the hue and chroma values calculated for all blocks adjacent to the one of the blocks and the hue and chroma values calculated for the one of the blocks. A hue variance and a chroma variance are calculated for the entire input image if a number of the detected color-changed blocks is greater than or equal to a first threshold. The input image is determined as a non-monochromatic image, if the hue variance is greater than or equal to a second threshold or the chroma variance is greater than or equal to a third threshold.

A system, method, and apparatus for photon logic gates based on quantum switch, where a single or multiple quantum switches are utilized for dark resonance interactions in which three-color lasers interact with a four-level or five-level nonlinear optical medium composed of three ground states and one or two excited states through nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes. The photon logic mechanism is based on combination of single or multiple dark resonance-induced two-photon coherence swapping among the three closely spaced ground states through optical transitions via a common excited state. The two-photon coherence induced on the ground states is optically detected via nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes. The nondegenerate four-wave mixing generation is enhanced owing to dark resonance or electromagnetically induced transparency. The gating time and bandwidth of the present photon logic gate method is not limited by population relaxation time or carrier's lifetime, but phase decay time, where the phase decay time in general much faster than the population decay time in solids or semiconductors.

Provided are a synchronization apparatus and method for improving timing estimation performance in an OFDM-FDMA/CDMA/TDMA system, which can correctly estimate symbol timing through a more correct timing metric using a guard interval of a preamble. The synchronization apparatus includes an auto-correlator for calculating an auto-correlation value of a received signal and a signal delayed by a predetermined time, a power detector for calculating power of the received signal, a timing metric/normalizer for normalizing the auto-correlation value by dividing the auto-correlation value by the calculated power to obtain a timing metric, and a peak detector for finding a peak value of the timing metric to estimate a frame starting position and an initial symbol timing. The auto-correlator calculates an auto-correlation length as long as a length of a guard interval, considering the preamble characteristic that the patterns are repeated in the time domain. The initial symbol timing is set to a position determined by adding the position where the timing metric has a peak value to the length of the guard interval and subtracting the maximum value of the expected channel delay spread from the result value.

Disclosed herein is a method of extracting three-dimensional building information using shadow analysis. In the method, an image of a building captured through a manmade satellite, an airplane or some other means, and metadata to be used for extraction of building information is received, the azimuth and altitude angles of a sun in an area of capture, and the azimuth and altitude angles of a camera are calculated. The contour of the roof of the building, the location and height of which are desired to be obtained, is extracted from the image. A height value is assigned to the extracted contour of the roof of the building, and the height value is adjusted until the assigned height value satisfies a predetermined condition. The vertical line and shadow of the building, which are based on the height value, is projected onto the image. The location of the building is extracted using the height value and vertical line of the building if the location of the projected shadow coincides with the location of the shadow of the building.

The present invention relates to a measurement method of the chromatic dispersion of an optical waveguide using an optical interferometer with a broadband multi-wavelength light source and an optical spectrum analyzing apparatus, wherein one arm, called “reference arm” of the interferometer's two arms has an adjustable air spacing and the other arm, called “sample arm” can contain said optical waveguide to be measured, and including the following measurement and analysis steps: measuring interference spectra of the optical beam output exiting from the said interferometer with an optical spectrum analyzing apparatus when said optical waveguide is connected to said sample arm, and when said optical waveguide is not connected to said sample arm respectively; by adjusting the reference arm length for appearance of clear interference patterns; converting the wavelength-domain interference spectra into frequency-domain interference spectra and calculating phase difference values of the interference peaks of one of the spectra from a predetermined reference peak as a function of the frequency change by counting the interference peak (or valley) points; finding a Taylor series curve fit function for each set of the phase difference value data corresponding to each of the two interference spectra; and calculating a chromatic dispersion coefficient of the optical waveguide by using the coefficients of the Taylor series curve fit functions.

The present invention provides a quantum optical data storage protocol, whose storage time is lengthened by spin population decay time from several minutes to several hours. The quantum data storage includes a first ground state and a second ground state which are closely spaced each other in energy level or degenerated and to forbid two-photon transitions between the first and second ground states; an excited state which has a spin inhomogeneous broadening and to allow two-photon transitions between the first ground state and the second ground sate via the excited state and allow a spin coherence; an auxiliary state for forbidding two-photon transitions between the first and second ground states via the auxiliary state and allowing a transition from/to the excited state; wherein a spin coherence induced by a transition of two photons from the first ground state and the second state to the excited state is transited to the auxiliary state so that a phase decay of the spin coherence is prevented and data is stored as the phase of the spin coherence.
