In this paper, a multistage parallel interference canceller (MPIC) and a partial multistage parallel interference canceller (PMPIC) are employed as a technique for improving the performance of the asynchronous DS-CDMA systems. The degree of the effect of the timing errors and phase errors on the interference cancellation capability of two types of cancellers is theoretically analyzed and the computer simulation is performed to confirm the analytical results. From the results, the large performance improvement is obtained by employing MPIC and PMPIC with perfect synchronization over the conventional matched filter, and the performance improvement obtained by MPIC and PMPIC is very close to each other as the number of the stage of MPIC and PMPIC increases. When the timing errors and phase errors are considered (in the case of imperfect synchronization), the performance improvement reduces as the performance degradation at the first stage (no cancellation) has a bad effect on the decision statistics at each stage. However MPIC and PMPIC have the strong interference cancellation capability in spite of imperfect synchronization as the number of the stage increases. An interference canceller, which has the strong interference cancellation capability as well as lower complexity for the implementation, is needed for practical systems with timing errors and phase errors because the perfect synchronization is impossible. Therefore, the excellent tradeoff between complexity and performance offered by PMPIC makes it an attractive approach for practical systems.

A new lattice structure using decision feedback and augmented prediction for estimating and suppressing the narrowband interference is presented. The performance of the proposed interference canceller is compared to the conventional interference cancellation filter. The reference signal of the interference canceller is formed by using the chip decisions, which is correlated with the narrowband interference components of the received signal. The decision feedback technique reduce the distortion of the desired signal which is introduced by the interference canceller through the use of feedback chip decisions. And by linear prediction of the error signal, the residual interference component of can be eliminated, Using this unconteminated error signal to update the adaptive filter coefficients, the performance of the rejection can be improved. In the simulation, it is assumed that the processing gains are 7 and 15, signal to interference ratio is -10[dB], and 5% interference band. The results show that the BER performance of the proposed filter structure is improved by 1~3dB.

To achieve a goal of minimum output power, the beamformer tends to cancel the desired signal if there exists correlated interference sources such as multipaths of the desired signal. In this paper, we propose a new method which overcomes the signal cancellation problem for correlated interferences. Instead of decorrelating the correlated interferences, the proposed bramformer regards them as replicas of the desired signal and coherently combines them with desired signal. This method uses an eigenvector constraint that suppresses a noise and uncorrelated interferences but keeps the desired signal and correlated interferences. Indisputably, the beamformer does not require any preliminary information on correlated interferences. Simulation results show that the proposed beamformer overcomes the signal cancellation problem and improves signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the array output when the correlated interferences exist.

In time-varying multipath fading channels, orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) uplink systems suffer severe performance degradation caused by inter-channel interference (ICI). In this paper, we propose a hybrid interference cancellation (HIC) for suppressing the degradation effect of ICI. The proposed HIC can achieve both exact interference cancellation and low detection complexity through efficient combination of parallel detection and serial cancellation. Simulation results show that, as the effect of Doppler increases, the proposed HIC achieves bit error rate (BER) performance enhancement in compared with severe performance degradation of conventional OFDMA receivers. In addition, both the computational complexity and total detection time are reduced.

In this paper, the analysis model of a composite electromagnetic interference environment is proposed, and the composite interference consists of three types, i.e., impulse, sinusoidal, and rectangular type. Also, we have derived the p.d.f of the amplitude of the composite interference. And using a derived p.d.f, we have evaluated the performance of 16QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) system in a composite electromagnetic interference environment. From the results, it is known that when impulse type interference is weaker than the others, the shape of p.d.f is dominantly governed by the power component ratio of sinusoidal and rectangular type interference. On the other hand, when impulse type interference is stronger, the effect of the other two interference becomes insignificant. Also, It is shown that the smaller both impulsive index (A) and the mean power component ratio ($\Gamma$') in impulse type interference are, the worse the performance of 16QAM system is.

In this paper, we investigate interference between short-range radiocommunication devices(SRDs) with frequency hopping spread spectrum(FHSS) and direct sequence spread spectrum(DSSS) methods when they are in the same frequency bands. In order to analyze interference from unwanted emission of SRD with DSSS to that of FHSS, Monte-carlo(MC) simulation method is employed and interference probabilities are calculated. We simulate interference scenarios in accordance with several duty cycles and bandwidths. It is also assumed that the propagation model is free space. The effect of distance between interfering transmitter and victim receiver is analyzed and bit error rate(BER) is simulated. From the interference analysis results, it is shown that duty cycle affects compatibility more than band-width does. Also, we can make sure of the separation distance which satisfies BER criterion when there are only one interfering transmitter and multiple interfering transmitters.

ISM(Industrial, Scientific, Medical)대역은 비면허 대역으로 일정한 출력 규제만 지키면 자유롭게 사용할 수 있다는 장점으로 인하여 육상 통신뿐만 아니라 해상 통신 영역까지 그 사용량이 급증하고 있다. 이에 어선 내에서 사용하는 전파응용설비 및 ISM대역을 사용하는 소출력무선기기 등과의 전파간섭 문제는 시스템의 안정성을 열화시킬 수 있는 요인이 되며, 선박상황을 고려하면 안전성과 직결되므로, 간과되지 말아야 한다. 따라서 ISM대역에서 사용되거나 사용될 무선설비의 간섭확률 분석은 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 Monte-Carlo 방식을 기반으로 하는 SEAMCAT를 이용하여 거리 및 밀도에 따른 간섭 시나리오와 전파 간섭 simulation methodology를 제안하였으며, 해상에서 환경을 가정하여 다른 전파간섭을 배제하였다. 제안된 시나리오를 적용하여 13.56MHz ISM 대역의 거리 시나리오 시뮬레이션 결과 RFID는 4.7m 이상, 모형기기는 2.7m 이상의 동종 기기간 이격거리를 가질 경우 간섭 영향이 양호하였다. 밀도 시나리오 시뮬레이션 결과 RFID(${V_r}$)를 중심으로 간섭 영향권에 RFID와 모형기기가 각각 2개 이하, 모형기기(${V_r}$)를 중심으로 간섭 영향권에 모형기기 2개 이하, RFID 1개 이하로 사용될 경우 통신환경이 양호함을 알 수 있었다. 제안된 간섭 시나리오 및 시뮬레이션 기법은 향후 ISM대역의 규제 정책 및 간섭확률 분석에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, we analyze the coverage of asynchronous IMT(International Mobile Telecommunication)-2000 reverse link with a MUD(Multi-User Detector) system. The MUD system is utilized to increase the coverage of reverse link. Also we have considered a propagation loss model and an interference effect. Because it is very difficult that we have calculated the interference accurately, so a fractional cell loading factor(F) is used in this paper. We make use of a MUD efficiency($\beta$) to analyze the performance; this efficiency is presented the MAI of reduction. A simulation utilizes Hata's model, we calculated the coverage according to voice and data services. In this paper, we have assumed that the frequency of carrier has 800 MHz or 1.9 GHz, and a bandwidth is decided 3.84 MHz. We have predicted the performance of actual system by the analysis of capacity and coverage.

In this paper, we conduct an objective performance analysis of the crosstalk cancellation scheme studied in [11]. While the conventional scheme is only applicable to a listener on the optimal listenable region (sweetspot), the space skew/crosstalk cancellation (SS/CC) scheme in [11] can mitigate crosstalk regardless of the listener's position by using listener position tracking (LPT) system. The SS/CC scheme is composed of two parts: LPT-based SS and CC parts. In this paper, the SS/CC scheme is evaluated by some criteria such as follows: condition number, and the balance characteristic, its root mean square error, and running average.

We propose an interference space reuse (ISR) algorithm for the MU-MIMO design in 3-cell downlink interference channels. Also, we provide a strategy for the adoption of the ISR scheme in the cellular network. In the multicell interference channels, the cell edge users may undergo severe interferences and their signals should be protected from the interferers for reliable transmissions. However, the intra cell users do not only experience small interferences but also they require small transmission power for stable communication. We provide a vector design algorithm based on ISR, where intra cell users are served through reusing the cell edge users' interference space. The performance enhancement reaches 20% compared to the fractional frequency reuse (FFR) scheme combined with IA through the scheduling between the cell edge users and the intra cell users. Also, it can be used to enhance the cell edge throughput when the quality of service (QoS) requirements of the intra cell users are fixed.
