Abstract

UWB(Ultra Wide Band) under standardization for WPAN has a restriction in transmitting power because of interference with existing systems. To overcome the restriction, in this paper, we construct the MIMO(Multi-input-Multi-Output) channel using multi-transmit/receiver antennas and analyze the performance of the proposed system. In addition, through numerical simulation, we obtain the interference property among these antennas and analyze the effect of an interference to the system. The proposed UWB system has a ML detector and the least square method will be used to cancel the multi-user interference and the inter symbol interference caused by multipath.

WPAN의 통신방식으로 표준화 작업이 진행 중에 있는 U(Ultra Wide Band)는 기존 시스템과 간섭으로 인하여 전송 전력에 큰 제약이 따른다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 방안으로 여러 개의 송수신 안테나 구성에 의한 MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) 채널을 형성하고 이에 따른 성능을 분석한다. 또한 MIMO 채널 형성 시 발생되는 안테나 사이의 간섭을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 획득하고 이것이 시스템에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 UWB 시스템은 다중경로로 인한 신호간의 간섭 및 다중 사용자로 인한 간섭을 상쇄시키는 최소제곱(least square) 방식과 ML 검출기(Maximum Likelihood Detector) 구조를 갖는다.
