This paper proposes an efficient scheme to track the time variant channel induced by multi-path Rayleigh fading in mobile wireless Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems with null sub-carriers. In the proposed method, a blind channel response predictor is designed to cope with the time variant channel. The proposed channel tracking scheme consists of a frequency domain estimation approach that is coupled with a Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) time domain estimation method, and does not require any matrix inverse calculation during each OFDM symbol. The main attributes of the proposed scheme are its reduced computational complexity and good tracking performance of channel variations. The simulation results show that the proposed method exhibits superior performance than the conventional channel tracking method [4] in time varying channel environments. At a Doppler frequency of 100Hz and bit error rates (BER) of 10-4, signal-to-noise power ratio (Eb/N0) gains of about 2.5dB are achieved relative to the conventional channel tracking method [4]. At a Doppler frequency of 200Hz, the performance difference between the proposed method and conventional one becomes much larger.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 방식의 수중음향 데이터 통신시스템에서 도플러 편이(Doppler Shift)와 도플러 확산(Doppler Spread)의 영향을 완화하여 주파수 효율을 향상시킬 수 있는 수신신호처리 방안을 설계하고 해상에서 송수신 된 시험 데이터의 BER 로써 성능을 평가한다. 도플러 편이를 OFDM 심볼에 부가된 Cyclic Prefix 와 상관계수법을 통해 추정하였으며 도플러 확산에 의해 시간에 따라 변화하는 채널을 Time-Frequency 축상에서 $2\times1D$ MMSE 방식으로 추정한다. 해상실험 결과, $8kHz\~11kHz$ 의 전송대역을 사용 할 때 복호 전 전송률 3098bps, 송수신 소자간 거리 7km, SNR 15dB에서 약 $1\~3\%$의 BER이 추정된다.

The doppler effect is used for measuring the velocity of the blood flow in artery. Because of the range information, the pulsed doppler system is most commonly used. In this paper, we propose a new two-dimensional(2-D) pulsed Doppler system. Which uses second-order sampling method and serial processing. The proposed system using second-order sampling method eliminates in-phase, quadrature-phase balancing problem at demodulator of quadrature detection method. In addition, the new pulsed 2-D doppler system eliminates balancing problem of channels of 2-D doppler system because of serial processing.

This paper presents the method of measuring the feedback interference channel, which is developed between the transmit and receive antennas of a wireless repeater by receiving the transmit signal at the receive antenna of the identical repeater, and experiment results obtained by analyzing the measurements. This experiment uses 2 GHz WCDMA signal and is carried out near a highway. The high-speed mobiles on highways cause reflected signals with high Doppler frequencies and large energy. In order to characterize the feedback channel, the power delay profile and the scattering function are estimated by identifying the delay spread, the Doppler spread, the number of fingers, and the attenuation with delay. Since the feedback interference channel is constructed between the fixed TX and RX antennas, which is dependent upon the multipaths developed by moving or fixed objects around the antennas, the channel shows different properties comparing to the conventional channels between the base station and the mobile station. Therefore, the results presented in the paper are expected to provide guidelines for designing and evaluating wireless repeater systems.

In this paper, we design the internal parameters of the SIMO channel sounder suitable for the measurement of the high-speed travel environment channel, and measure the characteristics of the wide-band channel by applying the proposed measurement method to the Yeoju Smart Highway piloted at 5.89 GHz C-ITS. Based on the design of the receiving array structure suitable for the real environment, the linear slope compensation method for the Doppler phase shift is applied to provide a reliable result on the Doppler effect due to the incoming angle information and the surrounding environment in the multipath environment.

In this paper, we propose a generalized vector channel model for wireless communication systems using antenna arrays. The proposed channel model reflects path loss. spatial-temporal variation of shadowing, multipath fading , Doppler effect, spatial distribution of local scatterers and delay spread due to remote dominant scatterers. In addition, we use a discrete ray model in which respective ray signal experiences independent shadowing, fading and Doppler shift, and impinges on antenna arrays at a distinct angle. Based on the proposed mode. we derive the relations on the spatial and temporal correlations of the received signals and implement a spatial channel simulator. By comparing the theoretical values with the simulated ones, we verify the effectiveness of the implemented simulator. The simulator is then used to generate an arbitrary channel impulse response and to analyze the channel characteristics under various environments.

In this paper, the Doppler phase error due to the relative velocity between a satellite and the earth station in communications using a low earth orbit mobile satellite is detected. The performance of BPSK system in the presence of Rician fading with Doppler phase error and interference, noise is compared with that of the system disturbed by Doppler phase error and noise only. The expression of error rate performance of BPSK system is derived as the type of complementary error function. The numerical calculation of the induced equation are performed in terms of satellite-height, orbit-eccentricity, the velocity of the earth, Rician fading parameter, signal to interference rateio (SIR), the ratio of carrier frequency and base band bit rate. The main conclusion that can be drawn from this analysis is that Rician fading channel environment with Doppler phase error and interference effect yields severe performance degradation than Do- ppler phase error and noise effect in satellite communication channel. And using the numerical calculation, we give a quantitative insight how much the satellite communication channel parameters degrade the system performance. Furthermore it is shown that an appropriate transmission power control for the performance enhancement is beneficial to the new satellite communication system planning.

해양에서 음파를 사용하여 수중통신을 시도할 경우 해양매질은 음향 도파관(acoustic waveguide)의 역할을 하게 되고, 이 경우 해양환경의 변동성과 그에 따른 음파와 매질의 간섭에 의해 수중통신 채널의 변동성이 발생한다. 수중음향 채널은 대역 제한 채널이면서 잔향음 제한 채널이고 강한 도플러 변이 채널이므로 수신된 통신 신호는 육상통신에 비해 심한 인접 심볼간 간섭(intersymbol interference)과 위상변이를 가지게 된다. 따라서 수중통신을 시도함에 있어 이러한 해양환경 변동성과 그에 따른 수중음향 채널 변동에 대한 충분한 고려가 필요하다. 본 논문은 수중통신 시스템 구성에 도움을 줄 수 있도록 수중통신 채널에 영향을 미치는 해양 매질의 기본적 특성에 대해 소개하고 수중통신 채널과의 상관성 및 환경 변동성에 따른 통신채널의 변동성에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

In this paper we analyze the effects of frequency offset, doppler spread, sampling and oscillator phase noise in mobile channels on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM)system, Since this kind of distortions cause subcarrier interference which can be seen as additional noise, performance of OFDM system is degraded. We show the limitation of maximum carrier frequency offset and doppler frequency to maintain designated SNR, and analyze characteristics of the performance of OFDM systems considering the oscillator phase noise.

Filtered multi-tone (FMT) is a form of multicarrier modulation utilizing frequency-domain equalization efficient in multi-path fading channels. Doppler frequency information can be employed for channel estimation and link adaptation to improve the performance. However, most previous studies have concentrated on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) instead of FMT. Moreover, they have not considered the synchronization error that can commonly occur in practical systems. In this paper, we propose Doppler frequency estimation scheme that is effective in FMT systems with residual synchronization error and high noise levels.
