초록

논문에서는 길쌈 부호화 시공간 블록 부호 시스템의 오류 성능에 대한 채널 변화 및 채널 추정 오류의 영향에 대해 살펴보았다. 본 논문에서는 직교 방식의 Alamouti 시공간 블록 부호 및 준직교 방식의 Jafarkhani 시공간 블록 부호의 두 가지 시공간 블록 부호 방식을 고려하여, 길쌈 부호화 시공간 블록 부호 시스템들에서 채널 변화 및 추정 오류 정도에 따른 오류 성능 변화를 모의실험을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과 채널 변화 속도가 느린 경우에는 시간 다이버시티 효과로 인해 채널 변화가 없는 상황 대비 검출 방식에 관계없이 오류 성능이 향상되나, 채널 변화 속도가 빠른 경우에는 검출 과정에서의 오류로 인해 특히 준직교 Jafarkhani 적용 시스템에서 STBC 검출 사용 시 ZF 및 MMSE 검출 사용 시와 달리 큰 폭의 성능 열화가 발생함을 관측하였다. 또한 채널 추정 오류 증가 시에는 검출 기법 및 채널 변화 속도에 관계없이 큰 폭의 성능 열화가 발생함을 확인하였다.

This paper investigates the impact of the channel variations and channel estimation errors on the error performance of convolutional coded STBC systems. We consider the orthogonal Almouti STBC and the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC, and the error performance of the convolutional coded STBC system is investigated according to the channel variation and channel estimation error via numerical simulations. Simulation results show that, if the channel variation speed is slow, time diversity effects improve the error performance compared to the static-channel cases. However, if the channel variation speed is fast, unlike ZF or MMSE detection, the conventional STBC detection has the significant performance degradation especially with the quasi-orthogonal Jafarkhani STBC. Further, the error performance of the system is significantly degraded as the channel estimation errors become stronger, regardless of the detection scheme and channel variation speed.
