In this paper, we propose a distributed user scheduling with interference-aware power control (IAPC) to maximize signal to generating interference plus noise ratio (SGINR) in uplink multi-cell networks. Assuming that the channel reciprocity time-division duplexing (TDD) system is used, the channel state information (CSI) can be obtained at each user from pilot signals from other BSs. In the proposed scheduling, to be specific, each user reduces the transmit power if its generating interference to other BSs is larger than a predetermined threshold. Each BS selects the user with the largest SGINR among users. Simulation results show that the proposed technique significantly outperforms the existing user scheduling algorithms. It is worth noting that the proposed technique operates with distributed manner without information exchange among cells. Hence, it can be easily applied to the practical wireless systems like 3GPP LTE without significant modifications of the specification.

DC 마이크로 그리드를 위한 Three-Ports Half Bridge (THB) 제안하고 THB 컨버터의 효과적인 제어를 위한 동작 원리 및 수학적 모델링 그리고 각 포트 간의 전력을 독립적으로 제어하는 디커플링(Decoupling) 방법을 제안하고자 한다. DC 마이크로 그리드에서는 수용자의 부하 상황에 따라 계통뿐만 아니라 분산 전원 및 에너지 저장장치(ESS) 등에서도 전력을 공급받을 수 있다. 이로 인해 기존 전력제어 시스템의 경우 2-포트 컨버터 2개가 필요하고, 이는 부피뿐만 아니라 소자의 개수도 증가시키기 때문에 제작 및 설치 단가가 상승한다는 단점이 있다. 3-포트 컨버터의 경우, 하나의 변압기를 이용하고 전력스위치와 수동소자의 개수를 줄일 수 있으므로 기존의 전력변환장치 대비 전력 밀도를 높일 수 있다. 하지만 하나의 변압기를 이용하여 3개의 포트가 연결되어 있어 서로 간의 전력간섭이 일어나고. 과도기 때 의도 하지 않은 전력의 흐름이 발생할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 수학적 모델링과 분석을 통해 3-포트 컨버터의 동작원리를 알아보고, 각 포트 간 전력 제어의 상호 간섭을 제거할 수 있는 디커플링 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 또한, 모의시험과 1 kW급 시작품을 이용하여 제안한 디커플링 전력제어 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

In this paper, we propose a distributed user scheduling with transmit power control based on the amount of generating interference to other base stations (BSs) in multi-cell multi-input multi-output (MIMO) networks. Assuming that the time-division duplexing (TDD) system is used, the interference channel from users to other cell BSs is obtained at each user. In the proposed scheduling, each user first generates a transmit beamforming vector by using singular value decompositon (SVD) over MIMO channels and reduces the transmit power if its generating interference to other BSs is larger than a predetermined threshold. Each BS selects the user with the largest effective channel gains among users, which reflects the adjusted power of users. Simulation results show that the proposed technique significantly outperforms the existing user scheduling algorithms.

This paper presents the analysis of the potential ultra-wideband(UWB) interference to WiMAX at 3.5 GHz bands and the mitigation method using transmit power control(TPC) of UWB system. UWB interference effect is evaluated with WiMax's outage probability over UWB density when multiple UWB systems and single WiMAX receiver distribute in unit area of 1$km^2$, When UWB distribution density is 20$devices/km^2$ and the dynamic range of TPC is 30 dB, UWB interference effect with TPC is decreased by 42 % rather than that without mitigation scheme. Finally, we describe that the proposed TPC is an effective method to mitigate UWB interference to WiMAX.

In this paper, we introduce an energy-efficient opportunistic interference alignment (OIA) scheme that greatly improves the sum-rates in multi-cell uplink networks. Each user employs optimal transmit vector design and power control in the sense of minimizing the amount of generated interference to other-cell base stations while satisfying a required signal quality. As our main result, it is shown that owing to the reduced interference level, the proposed OIA schemes attains larger sum-rates than those of OIA with no power control for almost all signal-to-noise ratio regions. In addition, when both zero-forcing and minimum mean square error (MMSE) detectors are employed at the receiver along with the OIA scheme, it is shown that the OIA scheme with MMSE detection shows superior performance.

In this paper, we propose a deep learning-based transmit power control scheme to maximize the sum-rates while satisfying the minimum data-rate in downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems. In downlink NOMA, we consider the co-channel interference that occurs from a base station other than the cell where the user is located, and the user feeds back the signal-to-interference plus noise power ratio (SINR) information instead of channel state information to reduce system feedback overhead. Therefore, the base station controls transmit power using only SINR information. The use of implicit SINR information has the advantage of decreasing the information dimension, but has disadvantage of reducing the data-rate. In this paper, we resolve this problem with deep learning-based training methods and show that the performance of training can be improved if the dimension of deep learning inputs is effectively reduced. Through simulation, we verify that the proposed deep learning-based power control scheme improves the sum-rate while satisfying the minimum data-rate.

본 고에서는 전력선통신 기술동향을 분석하고 국내 기술기준에서 어떻게 규제를 받는지 분석하였다. 전력선통신은 초기에 전기 이용기기의 원격 제어용으로 비교적 적은 데이터를 송수신하는데 이용되었다. 그러나 광대역 통신 요구에 따라서 전력선을 이용한 고속 전력선모뎀 기술이 개발되어 인터넷 등과 같은 고속 데이터 통신을 할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 전력선통신은 기존 전선로를 사용하므로 높은 주파수의 신호를 전송하면 전파 방사에 의해서 다른 무선설비에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 현재 30MHz 이하의 대역을 사용하고 있으나 이 대역은 해상, 항공 등 인명 안전을 위한 중요 통신에서 이용하고 있다. 그러므로 전력선모뎀이 기존 무선설비에 간섭을 주지 않으면서 주파수 대역을 공유하기 위해서는 간섭을 최소화할 수 있는 spread spectrum이나 OFDM과 같은 기술을 활용해서 설계되어야 한다. 이미 이러한 기술들을 활용한 전력선 모뎀이 상용화되어 있으며 옥내 뿐 만 아니라 옥외까지 용도를 확장하기 위해서 간섭 완화기술 및 방법 등이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 본 고에서는 전력선통신의 고속화를 위한 기술 동향 및 간섭 완화 방법 기술을 분석하고, 구현된 시스템이 다른 무선설비와 간섭 없이 사용될 수 있도록 규정하고 있는 관련 기술기준을 분석하였다.

In LTE-Advanced systems, every sector uses the entire range of the frequency resource, and when the UEs are located at a cell edge, user throughputs degrade due to the interferences from the adjacent cells. In this paper, we propose a combined scheme for inter-cell interference avoidance and power control. In the proposed algorithm, the sectors consist of the right edge, the left edge and the center for resource allocation and we control the transmission power to improve the user throughputs at the edge of each cell. Using a system level simulation, we analyze low 5th percentile and average user throughputs of the UEs who are located the cell, center and edge when the inter-cell interference avoidance and the power control are combined.
