Abstract: Disclosed is a receiver including: a partial filter generating unit selecting a signal as large as a predetermined magnitude among sampled signals and extracting a filter coefficient for the selected signal magnitude to perform QR resolution for the filter coefficient; a partial ML setting unit determining the lengths and the number of candidate symbol combinations of a signal to be detected and generating a candidate ML symbol combination based on the determined lengths and number of candidate symbol combinations; a signal detecting unit detecting residual symbols in a predetermined part of the sampled signal based on the generated candidate ML symbol combination; and a final signal selecting unit choosing a candidate symbol closest to the sampled signal among the detected candidate symbols as a finally detected signal.

Abstract: A transmitting apparatus generates a modulation pattern code corresponding to an input security key and modulates and transmits the bit stream with a corresponding modulation method for a duration of a corresponding modulation method while changing a modulation method according to the generated modulation pattern code.

Abstract: Provided are methods of surface treatment, semiconductor devices and methods of forming the semiconductor device. The methods of forming the semiconductor device include forming a first oxide layer and a second oxide layer on a substrate. The first and second oxide layers are patterned to form a contact hole exposing the substrate. A sidewall of the first oxide layer exposed by the contact hole reacts with HF to form a first reaction layer and a sidewall of the second oxide layer exposed by the contact hole reacts with NH3 and HF to form a second reaction layer. The first and second reaction layers are removed to enlarge the contact hole. A contact plug is formed in the enlarged contact hole.
