The main characteristics of the underwater acoustic channel have varying multipath and fast fading. Especially, Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signals with multiple frequency bands caused loss of information bits allocated on the specific frequencies due to selective fading phenomenon. Therefore, this paper proposes frequency gain control algorithm based on preamble error rates. The proposed algorithm estimates optimal gain value in the range of preamble error rate with less than 10 % for specific faded frequency. By employing turbo equalized FSK signals with rate of 1/3, the experiment was conducted on a lake in Munkyeong city with distance of 300 m to 500 m. The result confirms that packets are decoded successfully by applying proposed algorithm as increasing number of iterations.

This paper proposes a complexity reduced list sphere decoding (LSD) scheme for joint iterative soft detection scheme for coded MIMO system. The conventional LSD scheme is based on searching the candidates with a fixed radius. However, once the candidate list is full, it is highly probable that the radius can be reduced. By reducing the radius, the complexity can be also reduced. We propose a simple and efficient radius update method for complexity reduction of list version sphere decoding and its application to iterative soft MIMO detection. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme with a joint soft-input-soft-ouput iterative MIMO detection in combination with turbo codes. Simulation results show that the proposed methods provide substantial complexity reduction while achieving similar bit error rate (BER) performance as the conventional LSD scheme.

We propose a predistorter to compensate for nolinear distortion induced by a high power amplifier employed in multi carrier-code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) systems. The proposed scheme rests upon the fixed point iteration (FPI) associated with the contraction mapping theorem. Unlike the predistorter based on the FPI already presented by the authors in other literatures which operates on complex-valued modulation signals, the proposed predistorter in this paper deals with real-valued FPI on modulation signal amplitudes, resulting in less complexity. Simulation results on a BPSK-modulated, 64-subcarrier synchronous MC-CDMA baseband system with a traveling wave tube amplifier in the transmitter, indicate that the proposed predistorter achieves significant improvement in terms of bit error rate and total degradation over those without the predistorter. Moreover, the proposed predistorter outperforms the complex-valued counterpart, in particular, for small output back-off levels.

CAMC (constant amplitude multi-code) has a better performance of error correction in iterative decoding than SPCPC (single parity check product code). CAMC benefits from a processing gain since it belongs to a spread spectrum signal. We show that the processing gain enhances the performance of CAMC. Additional correction of bit errors is achieved in the de-spreading of iteratively decoded signal. If the number of errors which survived the iterative decoding is less than or equal to ($\sqrt{N}/2-1$), all of the bit errors are removed after the de-spreading. We also propose a stopping criterion in the iterative decoding, which is based on the histogram of EI (extrinsic information). The initial values of EI are randomly distributed, and then they converge to ($-E_{max}$) or ($+E_{max}$) over the iterations. The strength of the convergence reflects how successfully error correction process is performed. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves a gain of 0.2 dB in Eb/No.

A problem of many fractal image compression algorithms providing good quality at low bit rate is that the decoding time rests on an iterative procedure whose complexity is imag-dependent. This paper proposes an iterative-free fractal image decoding algorithm to reduce the decoding time. In the proposed method, under the encoder previously with the same codebook image as an initial image to be used at the decoder, the fractal coefficients are obtained through calculating the similarity between the codebook image and an input image to be encoded. As the decoding time could be remarkably reduced. For verifying the validity and universality of proposed method, We evaluated and analyzed the performance of decoding time and image quality for a number of still images and a moving picture with different distributed characteristics.

This paper proposes and analyzes the iterative groupwise equal-delay interference cancellation(IGEIC) algorithm for coherent detection of an asynchronous wideband DS-CDMA system in a single cell over multipath fading channels. The IGEIC algorithm divide users in a system into several groups, and subtract out interference signal from the received signal as many as the number of users within a user group, iteratively. The IGEIC algorithm is also classified into the iterative groupwise equal-delay serial interference cancellation(IGESIC) algorithm and the iterative groupwise equal-delay parallel interference cancellation(IGEPIC) algorithm. In the case of perfect correlation for spreading codes, it shows that the performance of IGESIC and IGEPIC algorithm is the same after interference cancellation of as many as the number of users within a user group, but the performance of IGEPIC algorithm is superior to the IGESIC algorithm just before fecal cancellation within a user group. The results show that (he performance of the two proposed algorithms are also superior to the SIC algorithm by 3dB.

In conventional Ultra Wide Band(UWB) system, it uses Pulse Positioning Modulation Method to modulate data signal. In this paper, however, we derive power spectral density characteristic of time hopped antipodal signal using stochastic process. UWB signal employes Gaussian monopulse and Rayleigh monopulse which pulse width is 0.5 nsec and interval is 5 nsec. But comb line which produces unintentionally could be evidently reduced by the time hopped code, so this code be used to channelize for multiple access and minimize to different communication system.

Recently, the Green IT is noticed because of the effects of greenhouse gas emissions, a drain on natural resources and pollution. In this paper, Visible Light Communication (VLC) systems with Turbo Coded scheme using LED is proposed and simulated in an optical wireless channel. As a forward error correction scheme to reduce information losses, turbo coding was employed. To decode the codewords, The Map (Maximum a Posteriori) algorism and SOVA (Soft Output Viterbi Algorithm) is used. The above mentioned schemes are described and simulation results are analyzed. As using turbo codes scheme, BER performance of proposed VLC systems is improved about 5 [dB].

In this paper, the performance of turbo code using semi random interleaver over the radio communication channel was analyzed. In the result, we proved that the performance of decoder was excellent as increase the interleaver size, constraint length, and iteration number. When the constraint length of turbo code using seim random interleaver and convolutional code is constant, and BER $10^{-4}$ each value of $E_b/N_o$ was 6.4(DB) and 1.7(dB). There(ore, when the constraint length was constant, we proved that the performance of turbo code using semi random interleaver is superior to convolutional code about 4.7(dB) in the case of BER=$10^{-4}$.

In this paper, the network performance of a turbo coded optical code division multiple access (CDMA) system with cross-layer, which is between physical and network layers, concept is analyzed and simulated. We consider physical and MAC layers in a cross-layer concept. An intensity-modulated/direct-detection (IM/DD) optical system employing pulse position modulation (PPM) for satellite broadcasting communications is considered. In order to increase the system performance, turbo codes composed of parallel concatenated convolutional codes (PCCCs) is utilized. The network performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability (BEP). From the simulation results, it is demonstrated that turbo coding offers considerable coding gain with reasonable encoding and decoding complexity. Also, it is confirmed that the performance of such an optical CDMA network can be substantially improved by increasing the interleaver length and the number of iterations in the decoding process. The results of this paper can be applied to implement the satellite broadcasting communications.
