Power control device and method for controlling a reverse link common channel in a CDMA communication system

Abstract: A common power control channel transmission device for a base station in a CDMA communication system is provided having a selector for receiving power control commands to be transmitted to multiple subscribers and multiplexing the received power control commands; and a spreading modulator for spreading an output of the selector by multiplying the output of the selector by a spreading sequence. The common power control channel transmission device can be used to control power of a reverse link common channel. For the power control of the reverse link common channel, the base station receives a signal from a mobile station via the reverse link common channel, and transmits to the mobile station a power control command for controlling a transmission power of the reverse link common channel according to a measured strength of the received signal.

Three-Dimensional nand Flash Architecture Design Based on Single-Crystalline STacked ARray

Abstract: Various critical issues related with 3-D stacked nand Flash memory are examined in this paper. Our single-crystalline STacked ARray (STAR) has many advantages such as better scalability, possibility of single-crystal channel, less sensitivity to 3-D interference, stable virtual source/drain characteristic, and more extendability over other stacked structures. With STAR, we proposed a unit 3-D structure, i.e., “building.” Then, using this new component, 3-D block and full chip architecture are successfully designed. For the first time, the structure and operation methods of the “full” array are considered. The fully designed 3-D nand Flash architecture will be the novel solution of reliable 3-D stacked nand Flash memory for terabit density.

Wireless communication system and method using multiple antennas

Abstract: A wireless communication system, and method using multiple antennas, includes a base station that applies predetermined weight vectors to multi-user signals and transmits the multi-user signals through a plurality of transmission antennas, and a plurality of mobile stations that receive and process the multi-user signals, wherein each mobile station includes a signal reception unit that processes the multi-user signals, and a feedback signal generation unit that estimates channel characteristics, over which the multi-user signals have been transmitted, from the multi-user signals, classifies a plurality of weight vectors to be applied to the estimated channel characteristics into a plurality of sets such that vectors orthogonal to one another are classified into a single set, selects a set maximizing a transmission capacity from among the classified sets, and feeds back weight indexes of weight vectors included in the selected set and weighted channel information to the base station.
