In this paper, the usage of ANNs in pattern recognition (discriminant analysis) have been studied and examined. For the purpose of detecting noise that presents in OFDM signals after being transmitted over a PLC channel, two classification learners were proposed. These classifiers are multiclass support vector machines (SVMs) with the error-correcting output codes (ECOC) and probabilistic neural networks (PNNs). A training dataset of 5,000 randomly generated signals transmitted over PLC channels, where each received signal is associated with its category based on its amplitude, was used to train the proposed classifiers. The purpose of this study was to decide on the optimum classification scheme among the proposed methods in terms of computational cost and classification accuracy. In general, our research demonstrated that our proposed algorithms trained on the PLC signals features achieved high classification accuracy, for instance the PNN obtained classification accuracy of 94.3% whilst the classification accuracy produced by the SVM using fine Gaussian kernel function was 96.4%. Therefore, they can be viewed as robust supervised classification learners.","PeriodicalId":131117,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Conference Radioelektronika (RADIOELEKTRONIKA)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122195285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, in a case study, a step-by-step design methodology for cascode low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) is derived. This case study provides an example to be followed in order to adapt the methodology to other LNA configurations, as well as to any other subsystems in millimeter-wave and THz transceivers.","PeriodicalId":131117,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Conference Radioelektronika (RADIOELEKTRONIKA)","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116872193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These targets are counted and sorted to three groups (incoming, outgoing and static targets). We derived this information from the output of the neural network which marked the targets in 2D spectrum. The additional neural network has five layers. The first layer is used for the suppression of the targets with even numbers of points, which causes problems during the symmetry detection. The second and third layers detect the symmetry in the dimension (vertical or horizontal). The fourth layer checks out if the symmetry is in both dimensions and if the detection is not a false alert caused by the constellation of the targets. The fifth layer contains only 4 neurons and this layer is used for counting of the targets and classification of the targets (if they are static, incoming or outgoing). The neural network is composed of a simple block for the easy implementation on the FPGA.","PeriodicalId":131117,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Conference Radioelektronika (RADIOELEKTRONIKA)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123861551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A simple low cost method of time synchronization for RTL-SDR receivers using such GPS time signal is described. The PPS signal is injected into an IF stage of the RTL-SDR and detected by correlation of an expected signal shape and the measured data. The accuracy of such pulse detection algorithm is in the worst case 5 samples or up to 2.1 µs when using highest useful receiver sample rate of 2.4 MS/s. The algorithm can also be used to measure RTL-SDR oscillator offset with a very high precision for frequency corrections. The accuracy achieved is not enough for precise localization of ground targets, but it's sufficient enough to roughly estimate a location of an aircraft or a satellite.","PeriodicalId":131117,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Conference Radioelektronika (RADIOELEKTRONIKA)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114986387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article discusses the approaches associated with averaging the measurement time to the nearest integer sample and further clarifying the moment of transition of the input signal of a given level (the application of non-integer number of processed samples). In the latter case, an additional approximation of the signal is performed in the vicinity of the end of the measurement time by applying approximation polynomials of the zero and the first order. For each of the approaches under consideration, analytical expressions are obtained for calculation of the RMS measurement error. The obtained analytical results are confirmed by coincidence with the simulation results at reference points.
