Abstract:
Provided is a communication system for ultra wide band impulse communication, and more particularly, to a communication apparatus and method that can be used in a sensor network or a low-rate wireless personal area network. To be more specific, the present research suggests a transmitter employing multi-coded bi-orthogonal pulse position modulation/demodulation and a method thereof. The transmitter of the present research provides: a serial-to-parallel converter for convening L-bit serial data to be transmitted into parallel data by performing grouping on the L-bit serial data; a multi-coder for generating a multi-coded symbol by multiplying the parallel data by total L orthogonal codes of length Ns; a bi-orthogonal pulse position modulator for positioning the multi-coded symbol in a predetermined pulse period and performing biorthogonal pulse position modulation; and a pulse generator for multiplying an output signal of the bi-orthogonal pulse position modulator by a predetermined pulse and outputting an output signal.
Abstract:
Provided is a communication method of a neighboring terminal and a target terminal in which a cooperative terminal that has a better SINR or a better channel condition provides help to a target terminal through cooperation between terminals based on a random access mode or a scheduling mode, so that an SINR of the target terminal is improved without help from a base station.
Abstract:
A system on chip (SoC) structure of a video codec-embedded image sensor and a method of driving an image sensor using the same are provided. The image sensor includes a first domain including a codec processing unit processing image data using a video codec and a core processor, a second domain including an image sensor pixel and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a third domain including an image signal processor (ISP) performing signal processing on the image data obtained from the second domain, a fourth domain including a formatter converting a data format of the data generated in the first to third domains to the outside, an a clock generation unit providing system clocks to the first to fourth domains, respectively.
Abstract:
A method of assigning and managing reference signals in a multi-cell environment, and a network device and a terminal for applying the method, are provided. Reference signal patterns may be assigned to multiple femtocells through a long term coordination of a central control unit that is used to control multiple cells.
Abstract:
An interference determination apparatus, including a signal receiver to receive a first signal of a primary network and a second signal of a secondary network; a correlator to compute a correlation value of a first cyclic prefix included in the first signal and a correlation value of a second cyclic prefix included in the second signal; and an interference determination unit to determine an interference level or whether the interference occurs between the primary network and the secondary network, using the correlation value of the first cyclic prefix and the correlation value of the second cyclic prefix.
Abstract:
Provided is a radio communication system for ultra wideband (UWB) impulse communications and a radio communication apparatus and method thereof. The present patent provides a radio communication system that can minimize power consumption by eliminating a need for carrier detection and sharing transmission/reception time information in UWB impulse communications. The system includes a network coordinator; and one or more devices communicating on a superframe basis in subordination to the network coordinator. The devices perform data transmission/reception in predetermined time slots and then they are inactivated to thereby reduce power consumption.

Abstract:
A cognitive radio (CR) communication apparatus and method is provided. A cognitive radio (CR) communication apparatus includes a signal receiving unit which receives signals from a primary user of a primary system and a secondary transmitter of a secondary system, the received signals including an element associated with at least one known signal of the secondary transmitter, and a determination unit which determines whether a signal of the primary user exists from among the received signals based on the element associated with the at least one known signal.
