In this paper, we propose two efficient symbol detection algorithms for space-frequency OFDM (SF-OFDM) transmit diversity scheme. When the number of sub-carriers in SF-OFBM scheme is small, the interference between adjacent sub-carriers may be generated. The proposed algorithms eliminate this interference in a parallel or sequential manlier and achieve a considerable performance improvement over the conventional detection algorithm. The bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed detection algorithms is evaluated by the simulation. In the case of 2 transmit and 2 receive antennas, at $BER=10^{-4}$ the proposed algorithms achieve the gain improvement of about 3 dB. The symbol detectors with the proposed algorithms are designed in a hardware description language and synthesized to gate-level circuits with the $0.18{\mu}m$ 1.8V CMOS standard cell library. With the division-free architecture, the proposed SF-OFDM-PIC and SF-OFDM-SIC symbol detectors can be implemented using 140k and 129k logic gates, respectively.

In Japan, the specification for digital terrestrial television broadcasting systems has been approved for employing a transmission scheme for ISDB-T, which can accommodate HDTV service and portable mobile reception by adapting segmentation of frequency. In this paper, we have developed 3.5 inch mobile TV according to One-Seg system and presented the results of our development. In addition, we introduce two diversity schemes to compensate the defect that signal is interrupted when the portable TV is moving fast. In order to achieve a reliable communication in One-Seg system, we introduce STD(space time diversity) which uses more than 2 antennas at TX and cooperative reception diversity which utilizes signal-exchanging between different mobile terminals. And, its performance enhancements to reception reliability of previous system are evaluated by computer simulations.

MIMO transmission systems can have various transmission modes, which result from the various combinations of the antenna diversity with spatial multiplexing. In this paper, we find the optimal mode to maximize the capacity with the BER constraint and the optimal selection (diversity transmission or spatial multiplexing transmission) for transmission of each transmission antenna, if necessary. The computer simulation results show that the proposed scheme has more capacity than the conventional scheme.

In this paper, a proposal for improving the performance of IF in-phase combiner is presented in view of simple hardware design and good performance for space diversity application. By adding the stable normalization circuit to the phase detector, better performances are obtained even for a severe notch depth of 30 dB. To check the validity of this proposal, various results based upon numerical simulation and laboratory test are presented here in conjunction with 64-QAM digital radio relay system.

In the environments with interference and Rayleigh fading the bit error probability equation of FH / MFSK signal has been derived and the error rate has been evaluated. And the results are shown in graphs and discussed. The degree of improvement of error rate performance has been found out in space diversity technique. From the results, we know that maximal ratio combining is very effective for Rayleigh fading and interference.

An opportunistic interference alignment based on dynamic cell selection is proposed. Since the proposed method can switch the desired signal space and the interference space of received signals, an additional selective diversity gain increases. The performance analysis using probabilistic models provides a mathematical expression for the sum-rate capacity. Simulation examples show that the proposed method achieves the higher sum-rate capacity than that of the conventional opportunistic interference alignment.

This paper proposes the signal design techniques of quasi-orthogonal space time block codes (QO-STBCS) on the multi-dimensional signal space. In the multiple antenna system(MIMO), QO-STBC achieves the full-diversity and full-rate by grouping two based-symbols. We study the condition for the full-diversity of the grouping QO-STBC geometrically and the performance analysis of codes on the multi-dimensional signal space regarding the various signal constellations. Simulation results show that the way of the performance analysis is validity.

In this paper, we propose a new type of mutually cooperative relaying (MCR) scheme based on a spatially coordinate-interleaved orthogonal design (SCID), in which two cooperative users are spatially multiplexed without bandwidth expansion. It provides not only diversity gain (with order of two) as in the existing MCR scheme, but also additional coding gain. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed SCID scheme is useful for improving the uplink performance as long as one user can find another active user as a close neighbor that is simultaneously communicating with the same destination, e.g., a base station in the cellular network.
