OFDM 방식을 다중 반송파 변조방식(Multi-Carrier Modulation)의 일종으로 다수의 부반송파를 이용하여 전송신호를 병렬로 전송하는 방식이다. OFDM 시스템에서는 심볼간의 간섭을 줄이기 위해 보호구간을 삽입하여 송신한다. 이 보호구간은 유효 데이터 구간의 일부분을 복사하여 신호의 앞부분에 첨가하는 것으로 복조에 사용되지 않는 여분의 신호이다. 수신된 OFDM 신호를 복조하기 위해 FFT를 사용하는데 FFT의 입력에는 보호구간을 제외한 유효 데이터 부분만을 이용해야 한다. 이 때 보호구간 제거를 위해 사용되는 것이 FFT 윈도우이다. 이 논문에서는 반송파 주파수 옵셋의 영향을 받지 않는 대략적인 FFT 윈도우 위치 복원에 대한 알고리즘을 제안하고 AWGN과 20개의 다중경로 채널 환경에서 컴퓨터 모의 수행으로 성능을 평가하였다.

A hybrid multicarrier CDMA/FDM system with a truncated adaptive transmission scheme is analyzed in forward link based on the feedback information from the mobile station. In the single cell environment, the prop(mea scheme outperforms the adaptive FH/DS system as well as the MC DS/CDMA system when orthogonal signature sequences are used. In the multiple cell environment also, the proposed scheme has better performance characteristics than the adaptive FH/DS system when orthogonal and random codes are used as spreading sequences.

In this paper, we propose a multicarrier CDMA system with an adaptive subchannel allocation method for forward links. In the proposed system, instead of transmitting identical DS waveforms over a number of subchannels in parallel, each user's DS waveform is transmitted over the user's favorite subchannel which has the largest fading amplitude among all the subchannels. The proposed system is shown to have performance gain over the conventional multicarrier DS/CDMA system. We also investigate how the performance is influenced when the signal is not perfectly allocated into the best subchannel.

Recently, the necessity of underwater acoustic communication and demand for transmitting and receiving various data such as voice or high resolution image data are increasing as well. The performance of underwater acoustic communication system is influenced by underwater channel characteristic. Especially, a delay spread caused by reverberation and multi-path induces the ISI (Inter-Symbol-Interference) and reduces the communication performance. In this paper, we study the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technique for robust the delay spread in underwater channel. We also use the clipping method to overcome the performance degradation in high PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). We confirm the performances of underwater communication system by the underwater channel model simulation model and experiment in small water tank. As a result, the multi-carrier modulation with clipping method presented low BER and the previous single carrier modulation had high BER.

Frequency domain equalization is the most promising technology that has relatively low complexity in multipath channel. A frame of single carrier system with frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) has cyclic prefix to mitigate effect of delay spread. After synchronization and equalization procedure on the SC-FDE system, common phase offset (CPO) that can introduce performance degradation caused by phase mismatch between transmitter and receiver oscillators is remained. In this paper, common phase offset tracking in frequency domain is proposed. To track CPO, constant amplitude zero autocorrelation code sequence as training sequence is adopted. By using numerical results, performance of mean square error is evaluated. The results show that MSE of CPO has similar performance compare to the time-domain estimation and there is no need of domain conversion.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) transmits high-speed data by splitting the transmission bandwidth into a number of subcarriers. The bandwidth of each subcarrier is ensured to be smaller than the coherence bandwidth. This paper presents an OFDM system incorporated with the Carrier Interferometry (CI) codes to improve the performance by enhancing frequency diversity effect. The performances of CI-OFDM with multilevel modulations are investigated in highly dispersive fading channels. For the investigation of performance improvement of CI-OFDM, a simulator has been developed using a well-known SPW simulation platform. The simulation results show that the CI-OFDM provides both performance improvement and robustness against dispersive fading channel behavior. The performance of CI-OFBM with multilevel modulations demonstrates that CI-OFDM outperforms a traditional OFDM system, particularly in highly dispersive channels. With a relatively large delay spread of 151㎱ compared to the guard interval of 800㎱, CI-OFDM provides a BER of 10$^{-3}$ if sufficient signal power is present.

The multicarrier system is in the limelight for broadband wireless communications due to its spectral efficiency. Filtered multitone(FMT) system uses a filter that has several symbol periods duration. Using long-period filter causes a performance degradation because of intersymbol interference in multipath fading channels. In this paper, we propose a simple equalization method which can reduce the ISI due to the wireless channels. The proposed equalization method compensates the ISI by subtracting the estimated ISI components from the current symbol using one-tap equalizer. The performance of the proposed system is verified through theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed system can mitigate the effect of ISI significantly.

A quadrature pair of filter banks that are composed of a pair of cosine and sine modulated filter banks is applied to MC-CDMA data transmultiplexing in the view point of mitigating inter-channel interferences. Exploiting superior capabilities of wavelet properties in composing the filter banks the proposed scheme is capable of compromising inter-channel interference problems better than the conventional DFT-based MC-CDMA due to superior subchannelization effects. To verify the behavior of our proposed MC-CDMA system based on the quadrature filter banks the reverse-link bit error rates with respect to signal-to-noise ratio under Rayleigth fading and additive white Gaussian noise channel environments are computed. The results show an improved system performance over the conventional MC-CDMA in the view point of minimizing interference effects.

초광대역 통신 시스템은 광대역에 걸쳐 주파수 스펙트럼이 기저 대역 잡음과 같이 존재하여 기존의 통신 시스템에 간섭을 주지 않고 고속의 통신이 가능하며, 반송파를 사용하지 않기 때문에 송.수신기의 소비 전력을 감소시키고 그의 구조를 간략화 시킬 수 있다. 본 논문은 신호의 대칭성에 의해 평균값이 0인 안티포달 초광대역 신호를 구성하고 시간 도약 부호를 이용하여 다중접속, 주파수 영역에서 에너지의 평활화 및 재밍 저항(간섭 제거)을 위 한 초광대역 통신 시스템을 제안하였다. AWGN 및 다중접속 환경에서 안티포달 초광대역 통신 시스템의 오류확률, 다중접속시 전송속도에 대해 수치해석을 통해 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다.
