20090072900 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COMPENSATING FOR NONLINEARITY IN PORTABLE COMMUNICATION TERMINAL - An apparatus and method for compensating for nonlinearity of a portable communication terminal are provided. The apparatus includes a modem for modulating Transmission (Tx) data, a Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) mode controller for obtaining power level information and for determining a power on/off state of a DPD unit by using the obtained information in the Tx mode, and the DPD unit for outputting the modulated data input from the modem without performing a DPD operation when power is off, and for outputting the modulated data input from the modem by performing the DPD operation when power is on. | 03-19-2009 |
20100128689 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INTERFERENCE IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - An apparatus and a method for controlling interference in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving a signal of a DownLink (DL) frequency band that is adjacent to an UpLink (UL) frequency band supported by a User Equipment (UE), measuring a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of the DL frequency band signal, comparing the measured RSSI with a threshold value, and, if the measured RSSI is less than the threshold value, limiting UL transmission. | 05-27-2010 |
20110182339 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING PEAK TO AVERAGE POWER RATIO USING PEAK WINDOWING - A method and apparatus for reducing a Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) using peak windowing is provided. In the apparatus, an absolute value calculator calculates an absolute value of an input signal, a subtractor subtracts a predetermined clipping threshold level from the absolute value, a smoothing unit performs smoothing on the subtracted signal according to a predetermined smoothing scheme and outputs a first smoothed signal, an adder adds the first smoothed signal to the clipping threshold level, an inverse calculator outputs a second smoothed signal by multiplying the clipping threshold level by an inverse of the added signal, and a multiplier outputs a final PAPR-reduced signal by multiplying the input signal by the second smoothed signal. The method and apparatus address an overcompensation problem while processing signals having a large bandwidth and a high data rate without delay, thereby minimizing the clipping influences on Bit Error Rate (BER) and Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR) performances. | 07-28-2011 |

20090060116 | FUEL ROD OF NUCLEAR FUEL ASSEMBLY HAVING VASE-LIKE COMPRESSION SPRING ADAPTED TO INCREASE INTERNAL VOLUME THEREOF - The present invention relates to a fuel rod of a nuclear fuel assembly having a vase-like compression spring adapted to increase the internal volume thereof wherein when the vase-like compression spring is inserted into a cladding tube, it has a relatively smaller volume occupied inside the fuel rod when compared with the existing coil type compression spring, such that the vase-like compression spring can ensure a sufficient space portion receiving the fission gases generated during the operation of the fuel rod, thereby increasing the burn-up performance of the fuel rod and the mechanical integrity thereof. | 03-05-2009 |
20090122947 | Joining Structure Between Top Nozzle and Guide Thimbles In Nuclear Fuel Assembly - Disclosed herein is a joining structure between a top nozzle and guide thimbles in a nuclear fuel assembly, which can prevent a rotation of inner insertion tube bodies when the top nozzle is separated from the nuclear fuel assembly and promote convenience in assembling and disassembling the top nozzle and the guide thimbles. | 05-14-2009 |
20100098208 | Anti-fretting Wear Spacer Grid With Canoe-Shaped Spring - The present invention relates to an anti-fretting wear spacer grid having a plurality of canoe-shaped springs formed thereon, wherein each of the canoe-shaped springs includes: a fuel rod-contacting part having a flat surface having a predetermined longitudinal length so as to have linear contact with the fuel rod; a curved face-connecting part formed on the upper and lower portions of the fuel rod-contacting part; a leg-connecting part formed on the end portion of the curved face-connecting part; and legs each being formed of a plate shape having a predetermined length and connecting the both sides of the leg-connecting part with one unit grid cell surface. | 04-22-2010 |
20100166134 | Top Nozzle Having On-Off Type Of Hold-Down Spring In Nuclear Fuel Assembly - The present invention relates to a top nozzle having on-off type of hold-down springs for a nuclear fuel assembly that has a two-stage elastic section such that a pushing force against the axial movement of the nuclear fuel assembly under normal conditions is optimized and at the same time a suppressing force against a drastic uplifting force of the nuclear fuel assembly under transient conditions is strengthened, and that lowers the elastic coefficients of the springs operating under normal conditions more than those of existing coil springs, thereby providing an optimal pushing force against the nuclear fuel assembly. | 07-01-2010 |
