Computer aided design and computer aided modeling tools are becoming increasingly important in the design and performance evaluation of communication systems. In this work, we report on the computer simulation modeling study of terrestrial digital microwave radio transmission, using Block Oriented System Simulator package (BOSS). The work concentrates on semi-analytical error rate evaluation in...

The digital transition of analog TV is rapidly taking place throughout the world. However, the digital transition of radio is progressing at a slower rate. Diverse standards are being considered for adoption and different countries have different frequencies allocated for digital radio. As a consequence, the progress in the development of digital radio receiver chipsets has been rather stagnant...

The advance of wireless communications brings in various schemes of wireless digital communication technology. Analog communication and broadcasting services convert into digital services in many countries. The IBOC (InBand On-Channel) system has been developed to work in the same band with the conventional analog radio and broadcasting digital signal simultaneously. HDR (HD-Radio) standard of ...

ISDB-T International standard is currently adopted by most Latin America countries and is already installed in most TV sets sold in recent years in the region. To support interactive applications in Digital TV receivers, ISDBT defines the middleware Ginga and its declarative language NCL (Nested Context Language). Similar to Digital TV, Digital Radio standards also provide the means to carry in...

We propose a coherent optical and radio seamless network concept that allows broadband access without deployment of additional optical fibers within an optical fiber dead zone while enhancing network resilience to disasters. Recently developed radio-over-fiber (RoF) and digital coherent detection technologies can seamlessly convert between optical and radio signals. A millimeter-wave radio with...

In this paper, an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) base band processor for a passive tag is presented. It proposes a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag digital base band architecture which is compatible with the EPC C C2/ISO18000-6B protocol. Several design approaches such as clock gating technique, clock strobe design and clock management are used. In order to reduce the area Decimal Matrix C...

1-1 Development background To cope with the recent rapid increase in communication traffic, various measures are being implemented for communication systems such as distributing traffic pathways using wireless LANs or other systems and increasing transmission capacity by introducing multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) technology or array antenna systems. The appearance of smartphones has acce...
