In this paper, we analyze the BER performance of OFDM/QPSK system in frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel with impulsive noise and improve its performance by adopting convolutional coding. When the channel delay time is shorter than the guard band, the OFDM/QPSK system shows a good BER performance while, when the channel delay time becomes longer than the guard band, its BER performance is abruptly degraded. Moreover, when the transmitted signal is contaminated by a strong impulsive noise in the channel, the BER performance falls to about $10^{-1}$. Also, without channel coding technique, the system doesn't meet even the voice service requirement while it meets the data service requirement with convolutional coding in frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel with impulsive noise.

본 논문에서는 다중 경로 레일리 페이딩 채널에서 MC (Multi-Carrier) CDMA 시스템의 BER 성능을 분석하였고, 최근에 가장 강력한 부호화 기법으로 급부상하고 있는 터보 코드를 MC CDMA 시스템에 적용하여 성능 개선 정도를 평가하였다. 성능 해석 결과, 레일리 페이딩 채널에서는 강력한 성능 개선 기법을 적용하지 않는 한 사용자수와 E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$ 값에 관계없이 음성 서비스를 지원하지 못함을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 터보 코드를 성능 개선 기법으로 적용하면 BER 성능이 매우 개선되고, 사용자 수와 E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$ 값에 관계없이 음성 서비스를 충분히 지원할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 예를 들어 E$_{b}$/N$_{o}$ 가 10 dB이고 사용자 수가 10명인 경우, 터보 코드를 적용함에 의해 BER 성능이 약 5$\times$$10^{-3}$ 정도 개선됨을 알 수 있었다.

이 논문에서는 주파수 비선택적 느린 나카가미 m-분포 페이딩 육상 이동통신 채널에서 M 진 QAM 신호에 L-가지의 최대비 합성 다이버시티를 적용하였을 때의 오율성능을 유도하 고 분석한다. 다이버시티 채널의 페이딩 인자가 동일한 경우와 서로 다른 경우에 대하여 각 각 다중가지 다이버시티 시스템을 고려한다. 페이딩 지수 m=1 인 경우 유도된 M진 QAM 신호의 최대비 합성 다이버시티 심볼 오율식은 레일리 페이딩 채널에서의 오류식으로 돌아 간다. 유도된 결과 식들은 L 값에 대하여 신호대 잡음비에 대한 함수로 최대비 합성 다이버 시티 심볼 오율을 나타낸다.

A Rayleigh fading channel simulator that realizes given correlation properties between two channels such as downlink/uplink is described. We propose an improved channel simulator that provides more accurate match between reference correlation and simulated one. The proposed channel simulator is based on a sum-of-sinusoids (SOS) method that handles finite sums of weighted sinusoid functions. SOS method is widely accepted in generating fading signals and obtain the exact match with the reference model if infinite number of weighted sinusoids are used. The proposed channel simulator minimizes mean-square-error (MSE) to obtain a close matched correlation properties.

In this paper, we analyzed BER performance of the MC DS-CDMA system and evaluated the degree of performance improvement of the system caused by adopting turbo code recently receiving much attention due to its powerful coding capability. As a result of analysis, it was found that the MC DS-CDMA system without any powerful coding scheme can not serve voice quality $(BER : 10^{-3}$ regardless of the number of users and the value of $(BER : 10^{-3)$ in Rayleigh fading channel. On the other hand, it was found that the MC DS-CDMA system adopting turbo code for performance improvement, shows improved BER performance and can serve voice quality without regard to the number of users and the value of $(BER : 10^{-3)$ in the same channel. For example, when $(BER : 10^{-3)$ is l0dB and the number of users was 10, the MC DS-CDMA system adopting turbo code showed improved BER performance about $5\times10^{-3}$.

In LEO system, the signal degradation is mainly due to fading and Doppler shift, so that the analysis of the signal degradation and compensation techniques are very important. As the Doppler shift compensator, the block demodulator has been known to be useful in compensating for the time-varing Doppler shift, but its compensating ability is about several hundreds Hz in 32 ksymbols / s QAM (QPSK) signal transmission. Therefore, in this paper, to compensate for severe fading and Doppler shift more than several kHz, we use a conventional pilot symbol-aided fading compensator, and propose the Doppler shift compensator. It is shown that the proposed compensator is able to compensate for Doppler shift more than several kHz. And a pilot symbol-aided fading compensator is shown to be a suitable scheme for severe Rician fading ($K{\leq}10 dB$) as well as Rayleigh fading. Also, it is shown that the equal gain combiner improves greatly the QAM performance even if the fading or Doppler shift becomes deeper or larger.

We introduce a new space-time signal processing scheme that uses both transmitter diversity technique and transmitter beamforming technique for code-division multiple access (CDMA) systems. Over complex Gaussian Rayleigh channel, the introduced scheme achieves the diveristy gain through the transmitter diversity technique. and the SNR gain by th transmitter beamforming technique. Bit error rate (BER) analyses are given to each of the three cases in which the transmitter diversity scheme, the transmitter beamforming scheme and the introduced scheme are used, in the slowly varying Rayleigh frequency nonselective fading channel. The Monte-Carlo simulation results are shown to match to the analytic results. When the channels between distant antennas are independent, analytic results show that the introduced scheme achieves the lowest $E_{b/}$ $N_{0}$ at target BER 10$^{-6}$ . When the channels between distant antennas are correlated, analytic and simulation results show that the introduced scheme is more robust to the change of channel correlation.n.

We have been derived theoretically the SER's and CLP's of Wireless ATM (WATM) cells employing an OFDM/16QAM modulation scheme in wireless channel modeled as a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The amount of the performance improvement of WATM- OFDM/16QAM systems adopting various coding techniques has been evaluated. In frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, considering CLP : $10^{-3}$ as a criterion, it is observed that the performance improvement of about 14 dB is obtained in terms of $E_b/N_o$ by employing an OFDM scheme. It is also confirmed that convolutional coding technique gives better performance than the other coding techniques. Especially, when the convolutional codes are adopted to WATM-OFDM/16QAM systems, voice transmission services are sufficiently available with 5 dB of $E_b/N_o$.

It is very important to acquire the synchronization in a intercell asynchronous WCDMA system, and it is carried out through the three-step cell search process. The cell search can operate in a stepwise parallel manner, where each step works in pipelined operation, to reduce the cell search time. In case that the execution time is set to be the same in each step, excessive accumulations will be caused in both step 1 and step 3, because step 2 should take at least one frame for its processing. In general, the effect of post-detection integration becomes saturated as the number of the accumulations increases. Therefore, the stepwise parallel scheme does not give much enhancement. In this paper, the performance of the stepwise parallel processing for cell search in WCDMA system is analyzed over Rayleigh fading channels. Through the analysis, the effect of cell search parameters such as the number of accumulations in each step and the power ratio allocated among channels is investigated. In addition, the performance of the stepwise parallel cell search is improved by adjusting the execution time appropriately for each step and is compared with that of the conventional stepwise serial processing.

Transmitting correct train control information is important in a train control system which demands safety. The train control information includes the maximum speed of trains, position of preceding trains, incline of tracks and curve sections etc. A radio frequency-communication based train control system is influenced by the noise and interference because the train control information is transmitted by wireless between a on-board system and wayside system. The radio frequency-communication based train control system is a mobile communication system due to moving trains. The inter symbol interference(ISI) occurs by the multipath fading in the mobile ommunication system. As signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) is decreased by the ISI, the train control information is not received correctly. In case of tunnel section, numerous reflected waves exist. Therefore, the power density of receiver is decreased by difference among the received times, magnitudes, phases through the multipath. So, the train suddenly is stopped by the fail-safe operation in the train control system on account of decreasing the power density of receiver. In this paper, a line of sight model-(Additive White Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel), rayleigh and rician fading model are presented. Probability density functions which are related to the SNR are derived from the models. The fading phenomenon severely occurs as a result of analyzing the probability density functions. So, the space diversity method is used in order to reduce the fading effect and it is demonstrated by using Matlab program.
