초록

본 논문에서는 공간 다중화 방식과 적응형 빔 형성 기법을 결합한 다중 안테나 시스템에 대한 하향 링크 성능이 다루어진다. 이 결합 기법은 IEEE 802.16e 표준에 기반한 한국형 직교 주파수 분할 다중 접속 표준인 와이브로 시스템에 적용되었다. 성능 분석은 고정 소수점 모의실험 테스트 장비 및 컴퓨터 모의실험을 사용하여 수행되었다. 실험결과는 와이브로 시스템에 다중 입출력과 적응형 빔형성 기법이 결합되어 적용될 경우 기존의 단순한 다중 입출력 방식만 사용할 때보다 프레임 에러율 1%를 기준으로 QPSK에 대해서는 3dB, 16QAM에 대해서는 2.5dB의 신호 대 잡음비 이득을 제공함이 밝혀졌다. 고정 소수점 모의실험 테스트 장비 구현과 이를 이용한 실험을 통해, 다중 입출력과 적응형 빔형성의 결합 기법이 와이브로 기지국에 적용 가능함을 보여주였다.

This paper details the downlink performance analysis of an multiple antennas system that combines adaptive beamforming and spatial multiplexing (SM) Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). The combination of MIMO signal processing with adaptive beamforming is applied to WiBro, the South Korean Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) system that follows the IEEE 802.16e standard. Performance analysis is based on the results of experiments and simulations obtained from a fixed-point simulation testbed. Simulations demonstrate that the MIMO Beamforming OFDMA system improves the required signal to noise ratio (SNR) over the conventional MIMO OFDMA system by 3 dB (QPSK) / 2.5 dB (16-QAM) for the frame error rate (FER) of 1% in the WiBro signal environments. From the implementation of the fixed-point simulation testbed and its experimental results, we verify the feasibility of the MIMO Beamforming technology for realizing a practical WiBro base station.
