다중안테나 (multiple-input multiple-output: MIMO) 시스템의 장점은 단일안테나에 비해서추가적인 주파수나 송신 전력을 증가시키지 않고 채널 용량을 안테나 수에 비례하여 증가시킬 수 있는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 다중 안테나 시스템의 이론적 용량을 살펴보고, 이를 달성하기 위한 기법들을 소개한다. 다중안테나 기법은 다이버시티 이득을 얻어 전송 신뢰도를 높이는 방식들과, 전송률을 높이는 공간 다중화 방식, 그리고 이 두 가지를 결합한 방식 등으로 크게 나눌 수 있다. 끝으로 휴대 인터넷에 사용되는 다중안테나 기술을 다룬다.

Recently, a multi-user massive MIMO (MU-Massive MIMO) network has been attracting tremendous interest as one of technologies to accommodate explosively increasing mobile data traffic. The MU-Massive MIMO network can significantly enhance the network capacity because a base station (BS) equipped with large-scale transmit antennas can transmit high-rate data to multiple users simultaneously. In the MU-Massive MIMO network, transmit antenna selection schemes are generally used to decrease the computational complexity and cost of the BS. In this paper, we investigate the energy efficiency of the transmit antenna selection scheme in the MU-Massive MIMO network and the optimal number of selected transmit antennas for maximizing the energy efficiency.

다중안테나 시스템은 단일 안테나 시스템에 비해 추가적인 주파수나 송신전력의 할당 없이 채널 용량을 안테나 수에 비례하여 증가시킬 수 있다는 장점으로 인해 차세대 통신기술의 핵심으로 부각되고 있다. 본 고에서는 이와 같은 장점을 가지고 있는 다중안테나 시스템의 신호검출을 위한 다양한 기법을 기술한다. 특히 공간다중화 방식의 다중 송수신 안테나 시스템에서의 다양한 신호검출 기법을 살펴보고, 성능 및 연산복잡도면에서 비교한다.

본 논문에서는 대역폭 효율을 향상시키는 공간 변조(spatial modulation) 다중 안테나 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템은 다중 송신 안테나 중 하나의 안테나를 사용하여 채널 간에 간섭을 피할 수 있어서 다중 경로가 많은 실내 환경에서 적합하다. 그러나 심벌 전송 구간마다 한 개의 안테나만을 선택하여 전송하므로 다중 안테나의 최대 부호 이득을 얻을 수 없다. 이를 극복하기 위하여 시공간블록부호화 방식을 적용한 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템은 두 개의 안테나를 사용하여 수신 성능을 향상시키지만 대역폭 효율이 향상되지 않는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Hybrid STBC 시스템을 적용한 공간 변조를 제안하여 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템의 대역폭 효율을 개선한다.

The future wireless communication systems will use spatial multiplexing with Multiple Input Multiple Output(MIMO) system to take advantage of large channel capacity gains. In such systems it will be desirable to select a sub-set of available transmit or receive antennas to reduce cost and complexity. In this paper we propose a novel antenna selection schemes for MIMO systems be suitable for multipath environment. Also, we analyze the capacity and define the outage probability for a novel antenna selection schemes for MIMO systems in multipath environment.

Intensive researches on multiuser-based Massive MIMO are performed to increase the spectral efficiency. Although the Massive MIMO scheme based on huge number of antennas inevitably causes hardware and computational complexity in baseband and radio frequency (RF) elements, the problem can be mitigated without serious performance degradation by limiting the number of baseband and RF elements below the number of transmit antennas of base station and opportunistically selecting transmit antennas according to channel states. Accordingly, this paper proposes a simple antenna selection scheme for multiuser-based Massive MIMO systems.

This paper proposes an antenna selection and switching system between spatial multiplexing and diversity techniques. The proposed system overcomes spatial correlation by using antenna selection method and improve bit error performance with switching encoding nudes between a spatial multipexing encoder and a diversity encoder. Therefore, in a 4 transmit and 2 receive antenna system first, the proposed system selects 2 transmit antennas, and next, switches encoding modes between Space-Time Transmit Diversity and BLAST according to instantaneous channel information. Computer simulations showed that the proposed system improves about 2 or 3 ㏈ SNR in low correlated channel and about 3 ㏈ SNR in highly correlated channel rather than a 2 by 2 antenna switching system.

Massive MIMO communication system with huge antennas has been attracting intensive attention as one of key technologies to increase the spectral efficiency. Many previous studies investigated single user Massive MIMO scheme in cellular downlink. Recently, however, intensive researches on multiuser-based Massive MIMO are performed to overcome the problem caused by the limited number of antennas in mobile stations. Although the Massive MIMO scheme based on huge number of antennas inevitably causes hardware and computational complexity in baseband and radio frequency (RF) elements, the problem can be mitigated without serious performance degradation by limiting the number of baseband and RF elements below the number of transmit antennas of base station and opportunistically selecting transmit antennas according to channel states, where the number of selected antennas corresponds to the number of baseband and RF elements in base station. Accordingly, this paper proposes a simple antenna selection scheme for multiuser-based Massive MIMO systems. Our simulation results indicate that the proposed antenna selection scheme can achieve comparable performance to the conventional scheme without antenna selection.

The future wireless communication systems will use spatial multiplexing with Multiple Input Multiple Output(MIMO) system to take advantage of high spectral efficiencies. In such systems it will be desirable to select a sub-set of available transmit or receive antennas to reduce cost and complexity. In this paper we propose a novel transmit antenna selection schemes for MIMO systems which is suitable for multipath environment. The proposed transmit antenna selection schemes offer better BER performance than that of MIMO systems without antenna selection and with traditionally proposed antenna selection schemes.
