초록

본 논문에서는 신호의 반 파장 간격으로 안테나 소자를 배치한 빔형성 시스템에서 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있는 빔형성 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 수신 신호 공간을 스팬(span)하는 고유 벡터들을 이용하여 빔형성 한다. 본 논문에서는 채널 추정을 위한 최적의 고유 공간 차수를 정하기 위한 기준도 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘을 적용한 빔형성 시스템은 기존의 빔형성 시스템과는 달리 각 퍼짐이 증가함에 따라 다이버시티 이득을 얻어 그 성능이 개선된다. 본 논문은 제안된 알고리즘의 설명과 함께 다양한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통한 제안 알고리즘의 성능 분석을 제공한다.

In this paper, beamforming algorithm is proposed which can obtain diversity gain in beamforming system that deploy antenna elements with half-wavelength. The proposed algorithm provides beam-pattern using eigen-vectors that span received signal subspace. The criterion to decide optimal rank of eigen-space used for beamforming is also proposed. A beamforming system applied the proposed algorithm shows better performance with diversity gain as getting larger angle spread. This paper provides a description of proposed algorithm with analysis of the performance using various computer simulations.
