In this scheme, the VLR broadcasts a re-registration request to all mobile stations (MSs) after the VLR failure. When an MS receives the re-registration request, it sends a registration message to the VLR to recover the location record. We study the performance of demand re-registration by investigating how effectively the re-registration can recover the location record for an MS before the first MS call termination occurs. Our results indicate that demand re-registration can effectively recover from VLR failure.","PeriodicalId":334957,"journal":{"name":"MILCOM 1999. IEEE Military Communications.

A new automatic classification procedure of analogue modulation signals including phase continuous FSK signals is proposed. For the discrimination between frequency modulation signals and amplitude modulation signals and the classification among amplitude modulation signals, the statistical parameters of the signal envelope are used. For the classification among frequency modulation signals, the compactness of the instantaneous frequency distribution is used. Good classification possibility have been ascertained by the computer simulations when the SNR/spl ges/10 dB.

The focus of this paper is to show how different interfering signals will affect the performance of a radio system.

First, this paper makes it possible to select various pulse amplitudes differently from the conventional method which looks up the sign bit simply. In addition, two pulses are selected on the same track and the delay of the LP is minimized at the transient period when the LSF interpolation is performed using a transient detector from unvoiced to voiced speech without additional computation. For telephone line speech quality, a 5.6 kbps speech coder using the proposed algorithm was equivalent to the 6.3 kbps MP-MLQ from the viewpoint of subjective speech quality. For objective quality, however, the degradation was MNRU Q=15 dB compared to MP-MLQ where MNRU Q=15 dB.","PeriodicalId":334957,"journal":{"name":"MILCOM 1999. IEEE Military Communications.

The inputs fall into three categories: directly controllable, semicontrollable, or uncontrollable. A graph conversion algorithm is presented to utilize the semicontrollable inputs, thereby increasing the number of testable transitions. The research was motivated while generating tests for MIL-STD 188-220B. The number of testable transitions for 188-220B Class A-Type 1 Datalink Service module is approximately 200 without utilizing semicontrollable inputs. These 200 account for only 30% of the transitions defined in the protocol specification. The presented methodology makes it possible to increase the number of testable transitions to over 700. Combined with our previous work on testing protocols with timing constraints, the methodology allows us to generate tests free of interruptions due to timeouts, and covering more than 95% of the defined transitions in 188-220B's Type 1 Datalink Layer.","PeriodicalId":334957,"journal":{"name":"MILCOM 1999.

The system adaptively varies the amount of spreading in response to changing channel conditions in an attempt to optimize throughput while maintaining acceptable error rate performance. System performance results for AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels, both frequency selective and frequency non-selective, show that a desired BER performance can be maintained. A trade-off analysis between forward error correction (FEC) coding and spreading for a fixed bandwidth expansion factor is performed. For convolutional coding the results show that a low-rate code provides better performance while, for a Reed-Solomon code, a coding rate of approximately 1/2 is best.","PeriodicalId":334957,"journal":{"name":"MILCOM 1999.

Numerical results are presented using the minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) criterion, showing that the receiver offers significant performance improvement relative to corresponding time-domain-only counterpart in terms of the near-far resistance and capacity in multipath channels.
