Abstract

In this paper, we propose a spectral efficient orthogonal frequency division multiple access(OFDMA) transmission system using multiple relays for a shadow area. The performance of the proposed OFDMA system in a shadow area can be improved by applying space-frequency(SF) block code over relaying multi-path channels. A simple channel cyclicity restoration method is also added in the proposed OFDMA system without cyclic prefix(CP) to recover the destruction of channel cyclicity due to the lack of CP. Simulation results show that the proposed OFDMA system without CP is almost same as that of the conventional OFDMA system with sufficient CP, which increases the spectral efficiency of the system.

본 논문에서는 음영 지역을 위한 다중 중계기 기반의 주파수 효율적인 OFDMA(orthogonal frequency division multiple access) 전송 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 다중 중계기를 통해 확보된 다중 경로에 주파수 공간 블록 부호를 적용하여 음영 지역의 시스템 성능을 향상시킨다. 또한, 주기적 프리픽스 부족으로 인해 발생하는 채널 주기성 손실을 복원하는 과정이 포함된 주기적 프리픽스를 사용하지 않는 OFDMA 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 주기적 프리픽스를 사용하지 않는 OFDMA 시스템의 성능이 충분한 주기적 프리픽스를 사용하는 기존 OFDMA 시스템의 성능과 거의 동일하여, 기존 시스템 대비 주파수 효율이 향상되는 것을 실험을 통해서 확인할 수 있다.
