Abstract

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is widely used in wideband wireless communication systems due to its excellent performance. However, OFDM has a disadvantage of high peak-to-average power ratio and SC-FDE(Single-Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization) was introduced to overcome the drawback. SC-FDE is less sensitive to nonlinear power amplifiers than OFDM while its complexity and performance is comparable. This paper proposes a frequency diversity technique for single-antenna BPSK SC-FDE systems using repeated QPSK transmissions with rearranged transmission patterns.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)은 그 우수한 성능으로 인해 광대역 무선통신 시스템에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 OFDM은 평균전송전력 대비 최대전송전력이 높다는 단점을 가지고 있으며 이를 극복하기 위한 방법으로 SC-FDE(Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization)가 제안되었다. SC-FDE는 OFDM과 비슷한 성능 및 복잡도를 유지하면서 비선형성 전력 증폭기에 덜 민감하다는 장점을 가진다. 이 논문에서는 단일 안테나를 가지는 BPSK SC-FDE 시스템에서 BPSK로 전송하는 대신 QPSK로 반복 전송하며 전송할 때의 데이터 패턴을 조절함으로써 주파수축의 다이버시티 효과를 얻는 방법을 제안한다.
