Abstract

In this paper, the new beamforming is proposed for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) system with multi-input multi-output(MIMO). Through the proposed Pre-FFT beamforming technique for MIMO-OFDM, the multibeams are formed toward each multi-transmitter antenna of the desired user. The proposed beamforming for MIMO-OFDM can reduce cochannel interference and get diversity gain in the multi-user environment. Therefore, the performance of MIMO-OFDM system is very improved. BER performance improvement of the proposed approach is investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDM system in the multi-user environment.

이 논문에서는 다중 사용자 환경에서 성능을 향상시키는 MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Out)-OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템의 수신기 구조와 이 구조에 적합한 적응 빔 형성기법을 제안하고 성능을 분석한다. MIMO-OFDM수신기에 Pre-FFT적응 빔 형성기법을 제안 함으로서 원하는 사용자에게 송신 안테나 수만큼 빔 패턴이 형성되어 CCI에 의한 간섭이 제거되고 다이바시티 이득을 얻을 수 있어 MIMO-OFDM의 성능이 크게 향상된다. MIMO-OFDM 시스템에 제안된 적응 빔 형성기를 적용할 경우 성능 개선 효과를 모의 실험을 통하여 확인한다.
