We investigate the joint selection problem of the transmit power level and the best access point for multi-access points. We further reduce the transmit power by jointly optimizing the transmit power and the access point selection. Our aim is to minimize the total transmit power, while each terminal maintains minimum signal to interference ratio requirement. We observe that the optimum solution can be achieved through proposed iterative algorithm for both TA link and AT link. Simulation results show that proposed algorithm (joint optimization of transmit power level and access point) outperforms the algorithm which optimizes the transmit power only. We also observe that the duality between the TA link and AT link does not hold in multi-access points environment. Accordingly, the resulting power vectors and the access point vectors for TA link and AT link are different in general.

In this paper, we introduce an energy-efficient opportunistic interference alignment (OIA) scheme that greatly improves the sum-rates in multi-cell uplink networks. Each user employs optimal transmit vector design and power control in the sense of minimizing the amount of generated interference to other-cell base stations while satisfying a required signal quality. As our main result, it is shown that owing to the reduced interference level, the proposed OIA schemes attains larger sum-rates than those of OIA with no power control for almost all signal-to-noise ratio regions. In addition, when both zero-forcing and minimum mean square error (MMSE) detectors are employed at the receiver along with the OIA scheme, it is shown that the OIA scheme with MMSE detection shows superior performance.

In this paper, we propose transceiver design strategies for the two-cell multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) interfering broadcast channel where inter-cell interference (ICI) exists in addition to inter-user interference (IUI). We first formulate the generalized zero-forcing interference alignment (ZF-IA) method based on the alignment of IUI and ICI in multi-dimensional subspace. We then devise a minimum weighted-mean-square-error (WMSE) method based on "regularizing" the precoders and decoders of the generalized ZF-IA scheme. In contrast to the existing weighted-sum-rate-maximizing transceiver, our method does not require an iterative calculation of the optimal weights. Because of this, the proposed scheme, while not designed specially to maximize the sum-rate, is computationally efficient and achieves a faster convergence compared to the known weighed-sum-rate maximizing scheme. Through analysis and simulation, we show the effectiveness of the proposed regularized ZF-IA scheme.

The capacity of WCDMA TDD system is limited mainly by the interference. So, to achieve the expected performance of WCDMA TDD system and to minimize the interference to cdma2000 system interferences, such as interference within WCDMA TDD system inter-cell interference, and interferences between cdma2000 systems, should be considered carefully. In this paper, by using System-level Simulation, we analyzed the interferences between WCDMA TDD system and cdma2000 system in practical situation based on the exact parameters of 3GPP TR 25.942 and by using System-level Simulation considering Link-level we analyze the interferences between WCDMA TDD system and cdam2000 system. From Simulation Results, we propose the condition for optimizing system capacity considering the interferences between WCDMA TDD system ＆ cdam2000 system

The X-band frequencies for transmitting the data from earth observation satellites are limited, so a number of satellites share the frequency bands. In order for multiple satellites to utilize same or adjacent frequency bands, International Telecommunication Union - Radiocommunication (ITU-R) limits power flux density (PFD), which overcomes the interferences among multiple satellites. However, even under the regulation, the interference effect needs to be analyzed when multiple satellites are connected to communicate with multiple ground stations (GSs) located close to each other. In this paper, the interference effect is analyzed based on signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) when two low earth orbit (LEO) satellites operating in different orbits are connected to communicate with randomly located two GSs in Korean peninsula. From the analysis results, it is confirmed that there can be interferences during 365 days operation even if the satellites meet PFD requirement, but the periods under interference effects are short and the interference can be foreseen.

무선 Ad-Hoc 네트워크를 위한 대부분의 라우팅 프로토콜들은 모든 링크가 양방향임을 가정하고 설계되었다. 그러나 현실적으로 Ad-Hoc 네트워크에 참여하는 노드들은 서로 다른 전송 파워를 가질 수 있고, 잡음 또는 간섭 등으로 인하여 지역적이고 일시적인 단 방향 링크를 야기시킬 수 있다. 기존 Ad-Hoc 라우팅 프로토콜 중의 하나인 AODV 프로토콜은 단 방향 링크 존재 시에 이를 경로에서 제거함으로써 양방향 링크만으로 구성된 경로를 다시 탐색하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 단방향 링크 존재 시에 야기될 수 있는 AODV 프로토콜의 문제점과 이를 해결하기 위한 기존 연구들을 소개하고, 나아가서 단?향 링크 존재 시에 적용할 수 있는 AODV 프로토콜을 변형한 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안한다.

In this paper, we have estimated the interference effects between the NGSO/MSS system and the fixed-service M/W system for sharing the NGSO/MSS system into the frequency band operated by the existing M/W system. Between above two systems, the interference effects must be analyzed in the following three points. That is, PFD(Power Flux Density) level must be obtained in the case of the interference from NGSO satellites into M/W stations, C/I(Carrier-to-Interference Ratio) and the coordination contour in the case of the interference between NGSO/MSS feeder link and a M/W station, and the interference power level and coordination contour in the case of the interference between NGSO/MSS service link(handsets) and M/W stations. Therefore, in order to obtain above three criteria, we have developed the analytical model, introduced the related equations and estimated the system performance by means of the simulation and the theoretial analysis. It is expected that the results will be utilized in setting the criterion for sharing between the NGSO/MSS system and the M/W station.

In OFDM-based Full Duplex Relays (FDR) with Decode and Forward (DF) scheme, an interference cancellation technique in the frequency domain is more efficient than the one in the time domain. However, an Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) may occur due to the timing mismatch between the feedback interference signal and the desired signal from Base Station (BS) when the feedback interference cancellation and demodulation are performed in the frequency domain. In this paper, the effects of timing mismatch on the synchronous type and asynchronous type of OFDM-based FDR are analyzed for uplink and downlink cases. Then, synchronization procedure and methods for reducing ISI and ICI in OFDM-based FDR with frequency-domain feedback interference canceller are proposed and verified by computer simulation.

이 논문에서는 직교 주파수 분할 다중 접속방식(orthogonal frequency division multiple access : OFDMA)을 이용한 상향 링크 시스템에서 수신된 신호에 주파수 옵셋이 존재할 때 나타나는 영향을 보상하는 방법을 제안한다. OFDMA에서 각 사용자가 전송한 신호에서 발생하는 주파수 옵셋은 다중 접속 간섭(multi-user interference : MUI)을 발생시킨다. 이러한 다중접속 간섭은 OFDMA 시스템의 성능을 저하시키는 주요한 원인 중에 하나이다. 이 논문에서는 시간영역에서 특정 사용자의 신호에 대한 주파수 옵셋의 보상을 한 뒤, 주파수 영역에서 일반적인 채널간간섭 제거 방법을 적용하여 다중 접속 간섭에 의한 영향을 효과적으로 제거하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 부반송파에 위치에 따라 달리 나타나는 다중 접속 간섭의 크기에 따라 간섭 제거 방법을 달리하여 보다 적은 계산량으로 간섭을 제거하는 방법을 제안한다.

We consider the optimum power allocation problem for downlink system throughput maximization in a 2 time slotted relay interference channel. Base station (BS) transmits power to Mobile Station (MS) and Relay Station (RS) in time slot 1 (orthogonal channel). In time slot 2, BS and RS transmit power to each MS, while causing cochannel interference to each other. The obtained optimum power allocation scheme allows simultaneous transmissions of BS and RS when the interference level in time slot 2 is low. However, when the interference level is high, RS shuts down its power. Numerical results are provided to support our analysis.
