초록

본 논문에서는 2차원 결합 가우시안 Q-함수(Two-dimensional joint Gaussian Q-function)를 이용하여 AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) 환경에서 M-PSK(M-ary Phase Shift Keying) 신호의 I/Q 위상 불균형(Phase unbalance) 존재 시 수치 적분이 필요 없는 정확하고 일반화된 closed-form 형태의 비트 오류율(Bit Error Rate) 표현을 유도한다. 새롭게 유도된 표현은 평균 BER 뿐만 아니라 k-번째 비트의 BER에 대하여도 일반화된 식으로 되어 있어 다양한 환경으로의 적용이 용이하여 M-PSK를 적용하는 많은 디지털 통신 시스템에서 복조 시 발생할 수 있는 I/Q 위상 불균형에 의한 시스템 성능 변화에 대하여 정확한 이론적 성능 기준을 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

I/Q phase unbalance caused by non-ideal circuit components is inevitable physical phenomenons and leads to performance degradation when we implement a practical coherent M-ary phase shift keying(M-PSK) demodulator. In this paper, we present an exact and general expression involving two-dimensional Gaussian Q-functions for the bit error rate(BER) of uniform M-PSK with I/Q phase unbalance over an additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel. First we derive a BER expression for the k-th bit of 8, 16-PSK signal constellations when Gray code bit mapping is employed. Then, from the derived k-th bit BER expression, we present the exact and general average BER expression for M-PSK with I/Q phase unbalance. This result can readily be applied to numerical evaluation for various cases of practical interest in an I/Q unbalanced M-PSK system, because the one- and two-dimensional Gaussian Q-functions can be easily and directly computed using commonly available mathematical software tools.
