In this paper, we propose a channel estimation method associated with the interpolation order for OFDM systems. We first analyze the time varying channel and frequency selective channels, and then derive the channel index which indicates the ratio of the time axis variation and the frequency axis variation. This index is used for determining the order of interpolation such as time axis followed by frequency axis interpolation or vice versa. The computer simulation over a DVB-T system shows that the proposed method can provide more accurate channel information, thereby improving the overall performance.

In The objective of this paper is to apply blind minimum output energy multiuser detection method to multicarrier direct sequence code division multiple access system. The performance of MC/DS-CDMA is reduced due to multiple access. To increase the performance of system, we need to cancel multiple user components. Blind interference canceller is able to detect the desired's information with the only minimal information of the desired user. We evaluate the performance of the proposed receiver under Gaussian channel. Simulation results show that the proposed receiver has about 6［dB］ gain of signal to noise ratio without multiple user interference and has about 3［dB］ gain of SNR with multiple user interference. Also, the result of comparing the capacity of the active users shows that the proposed method has about 2 times capacity more than conventional method. As a conclusion, simulation results show that the proposed method has better performs better than conventional method.

In this paper, we propose robust relay and destination filter design methods for the multi-user peer-to-peer amplify-and-forward relaying systems while taking imperfect channel knowledge into consideration. Specifically, the relay and destination filter sets are developed to minimize the sum mean-squared-error (MSE). We first present a robust joint optimum relay and destination filter calculation method with an iterative algorithm. Motivated by the need to reduce computational complexity of the iterative scheme, we then formulate a simplified sum MSE minimization problem using the relay filter decomposability, which lead to two robust sub-optimum non-iterative design methods. Finally, we propose robust modified destination filter design methods which require only local channel state information between relay node and a specific destination node. The analysis and simulation results verify that, compared with the optimum iterative method, the proposed non-iterative schemes suffer a marginal loss in performance while enjoying significantly improved implementation efficiencies. Also it is confirmed that the proposed robust filter design methods provide desired robustness in the presence of channel uncertainty.

In this paper, described is the comparison of performances based on the computer simulation under IMT-2000 environment between multicode and multicarrier CDMA system for the design of wireless systems using wideband CDMA technology. From simulation results, it can be concluded that both multicode and multicarrier CDMA scheme show comparable performances. Diversity scheme of RAKE receiver is indispensible for both multicode and multicarrier CDMA systems under IMT-2000 outdoor B and vehicular B channel environment. Either Hadamard matrix or PN sequence can be used as the orthogonal code as far as the orthogonality is kept. Finally, with increasing chip rate and less users, performance is getting better.

In this letter, an open-loop precoding is proposed to enhance the performance of SM in transmit correlated MIMO channels. The proposed method is derived by observing the effect of feedback error on the minimum distance precoder, and can mitigate the performance degradation without any feedback information.

Impulse Radio Ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) system employing the short pulse has the tolerable characteristics for the multipath environment. The corresponding transceiver with low power consumption can be simply implemented. On the other hand, in the receiver side, the precise channel estimation is required for the knowledge of essence in channel due to the short period of pulse. The estimated gains and delays in channel are used in the rake receiver. The resulting parameters we search have a strong influence on the performance in the entire system. We introduce that the essential parameters can be obtained more precisely through the preamble in receiver side for the channel estimation and related technologies are presented.

In this paper, a novel transmission scheme with spatial modulation is proposed for coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique, so-called spatial modulation (SM), divides input data into antenna index and data signals, transmitting data signals through the specific antenna chosen by the antenna index. In order to retrieve data stream at the receiver, SM needs to detect the antenna index which means that data signals are transmitted via a certain antenna. For this reason, it should be guaranteed that channel matrix is orthogonal. For the real environment, a MIMO channel has difficulty in maintaining orthogonality due to spatial correlation. Moreover, the receiver of the conventional SM is operated by hard decision, so that this scheme has a limit to be adopted for practical systems. Therefore, soft-output demappers for the conventional and proposed schemes are derived to detect antenna index and data stream by soft decision, and a novel transmission scheme combined with spatial modulation is proposed to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of the conventional scheme.

This paper proposes a carrier frequency of set estimation algorithm for IEEE802.11n system. As IEEE802.11n is a multiple input multiple output(MIMO) system, so there are several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid carrier frequency offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, and show that the proposed selection combining carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation algorithm can estimate carrier frequency offset within 1/10 MSE error at SNR 10 dB in channel B and within 1/2 MSE error at SNR 10 dB in channel D rather than the conventional MIMO CFO one.

The multicode CDMA systems that are widely studied as an effective transmission methodology in the IMT-2000 systems, employ orthogonal codes to transform high rate data into parallel, low rate data for simultaneous transmission. In this paper, we propose a new multicode CDMA system which achieves the same data rate and processing gain of the conventional systems, while significantly improves bit error rate performance by exploiting a convolutional code with code rate r=1/2 and a bi-orthogonal code. The simulation results for synchronous systems using maximal ratio combining Rake receivers under additive white Gaussian noise and multi-path fading channels, show significant improviements by the proposed system.
