`In the beginning of 2009, Information and Communication University (ICU)
`was merged into KAIST. Given that nearly half of the studies at ICU focused
`on electrical engineering, the major contribution of ICU joined our
`department, the Department of Electrical Engineering (EE) at KAIST.

`

`

`The Electrical Engineering (EE) department has successfully expanded our research areas to include the fields of brain
`engineering, network security, and network computing. This expansion is a necessary fundamental step in implementing our
`long-term goal, which is to become a world-leading department in the field of information technology.
`
`We have experienced many fast and drastic changes in the last five years, such as changes in the faculty tenure system and
`the tuition policy for undergraduate and graduate students, having all of the undergraduate lectures in English, and
`integrating new admission standards for prospective undergraduate students. Most of the changes have adapted well to our
`system and we did our best to integrate the new policies successfully, which has made us stronger in the field of worldwide
`competition. However, we still have some tasks and policies that need to be refined. We do believe that we have the strength
`and ability to improve the policies and make changes ourselves.
`
`Currently, the EE department at KAIST is the largest department in Korea with 87 professors, more than 1,200 students
`(approximately 400 undergraduate and 800 graduate students), and 20 administrative and technical staff members.
`
`This annual report highlights the various activities undertaken in 2010 and in the first half of 2011 by our faculty members,
`students, and staff. This year, we made great progress and produced outstanding research results. Our research centers
`worked closely with the government and various industries. We also strengthened our national research laboratories gained
`a considerable amount of research funding. All of these achievements would not have been possible without the efforts of
`every member of the KAIST EE department.
`
`We know we have a lot of things to do to realize our vision of becoming the best EE department in the world. Everyone at the
`Department of Electrical Engineering at KAIST is ready to listen to your suggestions and ideas that may improve the
`Department of Electrical Engineering. I would like all of you to remain interested in the Department of Electrical Engineering
`at KAIST and watch us become one of the best departments in the world.

`
`Brain and
`Smart Systems
`
`Conventional Von Neumann style programmable systems have achieved spectacular success in the past half century.
`They are in fact one of the cornerstones of our present way of life. It is increasingly evident, however, that many of the
`mankind’s emerging problems are characterized by exceedingly high degree of complexity and uncertainty, necessitating
`a quantum jump in our ability to capture such problems in a computationally efficient way.
`With 50 million neurons and several hundred kilometers of axons terminating in almost one trillion synapses for every
`cubic centimeter, yet consuming only about 12 watts energy for the entire cortex, the brain is arguably one of the most
`efficient information processing systems specifically designed to solve complex, real-world problems. The Brain and
`Smart Systems Group aims to reverse engineer the basic principles of operation and architecture of the brain in order to

`
`The research of Nanoscale Advanced Integrated Systems
`Lab. (NAIS) focuses on System aware Mixed mode IC design
`and 100Gb/s broadband IC design for next generation
`broadcasting networks.
`System level performance driven adaptive reconfigurable
`mixed mode IC design technique. In this design, the system
`level signatures of the underlying physical artifacts will be
`monitored and processed using adaptive and statistical
`signal processing to determine optimal strategies for error-
`compensation, reconfiguration and adaptation of
`architectural and circuit level parameters. A mixed mode IC
`designed with such scheme can also overcome the
`fundamental performance trade-offs existing in non-adaptive
`conventional mixed mode communication ICs and ultimately
`improve the baseline performance. As this technique would
`enable a complete system IC to operate as an evolving
`organism, self-healing capability would be a valuable
`byproduct of this scheme.
`The steady growth in demand for bandwidth is facing the
`data-rates in the 100s of Gb/s in optical communications.
`Such high-speed systems suffer from impairments such as
`dispersion, noise, and process non-idealities. Due to the
`difficulty in implementing multi-Gb/s transmitters and
`receivers in silicon, conventionally, high-speed links were
`implemented primarily with simple analog circuits
`employing minimal signal processing. However, the
`relentless scaling of feature sizes exemplified by Moor’s law
`has enable the application of sophisticated signal processing
`techniques to overcome such
`problems prevalent in complex transceivers operating at
`100s of Gb/s. Newly developed 100Gb/s CAUI receiver has
`met all the stringent and complex specifications while
`mitigating inherent circuit level issues through a variety of
`innovations at the algorithmic, architectural and circuit levels

`
`Communication Circuits and Systems Laboratory
`
`Communication Circuits and Systems Group explores
`emerging technologies for various high-performance, low-
`power wired and wireless communication systems. Our main
`area of focus is in the design and implementation of analog
`and mixed-signal integrated circuits with multiple layers of
`system abstraction in mind, from communication protocols
`and system architectures to circuit techniques. Our recent
`research topics include low power communication circuits,
`digital transceiver and bio-sensor network.
`As a key building block of low power communication system,
`we demonstrated a state-of-the-art ultra low power
`frequency synthesizer, and also proposed a state-of-the-art
`digitally-controlled injection-locked frequency divider. For
`the implementation of digital receivers, we proposed a digital
`PLL (DPLL) architecture with novel sub-feedback loop which
`reduces the effect of quantization. We also proposed a low
`power time-based ADC architecture that can directly digitize
`the RF signal without any use of large passive devices such
`as inductors, which is attractive solution for direct RF
`sampling in deep-submicron processes (Fig.(a)). In addition,
`we have proposed a novel low-power digital-friendly
`transmitter architecture which does not use mixers or DACs.
`In the bio-sensor area, we are investigating a novel
`magnetic-stimulation-based bio-sensor and a novel bio-
`impedance measurement system. (Fig. (b)).

`
`System VLSI Laboratory
`
`Main research topics of the System VLSI Lab (SVL) include
`reconfigurable core IP design for important system
`algorithms, MPSoC based Intelligent NoC design, and energy
`harvesting sensor/actuator network design for IT
`convergence systems.
`Reconfigurable Core IP Design for Important System
`Algorithms : One of the big issues in advanced system
`design is how to effectively implement its complex
`algorithms with real-time and low-power requirements. The
`System VLSI Lab's approach is to thoroughly analyze the
`system algorithms and devise some optimal architectures
`that meet conflicting system requirements. These
`architectures are system algorithm core IPs ( Intellectual
`Properties). System algorithms of interest in the lab are
`those of cryptography, 3D-multimedia and Mobile
`communication. Currently, we are focusing on core IP design
`for elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) algorithm.
`MPSoC based Intelligent NoC Design : ‘Small, Green and
`Smart' is today's keyword. To achieve this, the lab, SVL, is
`conducting research on MPSoC based intelligent NoC
`(network-on-chip). An NoC is composed of MPSoC, i.e., many
`microprocessors and/or DSPs, memories, and on-chip
`network (OCN). It is very small, consumes low energy and
`analyzes very complex phenomena. MPSoC based Intelligent
`NoC design includes parallel processing, energy calculation
`methodology, network parameter evaluation and modeling,
`and SoC design methodology. Main application areas of
`interest are noisy video and audio signal processing.
`Energy Harvesting Sensor/Actuator Network Design for IT
`Convergence Systems : A world wide issue is 'IT
`Convergence'. That is to apply well advanced IT technologies
`to science and engineering. In this regard, the System VLSI
`Lab is focusing on Energy Harvesting Convergence
`Sensor/Actuator Network Design in the ocean and fishery
`
`science/engineering and plant science. The electric energy is
`obtained by conversion from the sun, wind, wave, &
`movement. The science and engineering requirement
`adapted sensors and actuators are properly applied to the
`system in question and optimally networked. The R&D is to
`be done in cooperation with the KAIST Digital Media Lab
`(DML) that has long been conducting advanced multi-
`disciplinary media projects. At present, we are conducting an
`IT convergence project with the National Fishery Research
`and Development Institute (NFRDI) on processing
`technologies of marine facilities caused pollution sources.
