Abstract

In this paper, we compare the timing synchronization performance of the adaptive filter to that of the correlator in direct sequence spread spectrum (DS/SS) systems. The test variables used in the code synchronization are statistically analyzed for both schemes, and then the obtained results are used in calculating the detection and false alarm probabilities. Based on the derived probabilities, the synchronization performance is compared and the simulation is followed. Analysis and simulation results show that the correlator outperforms the adaptive filter under most synchronization environments.

본 논문에서는 DS/SS (Direct Sequence Spread System) 시스템에서 상관기를 이용한 시간 동기 획득 기법과 LMS (Least Mean Square) 알고리즘 기반 적응형 필터를 이용한 기법과의 동기 획득 성능을 비교한다. 두 가지 기법에 대해 동기 획득 과정에 이용되는 테스트 변수를 통계적으로 수식 분석하고 이를 기반으로 동기 검파 확률과 오보 확률을 유도한다. 수식 분석한 결과를 이용하여 시간 동기 획득 성능을 비교 분석하며, 모의 실험을 통해 성능 분석 결과를 검증하고 심화 분석한다. 수식 분석과 모의 실험 결과를 통해 상관기를 이용한 시간 동기 획득 기법이 대부분의 동기 획득 환경에서 LMS 기반 적응형 필터 기법에 비해 우수한 성능을 가짐을 보인다.
