This paper presents the measurement results of strength of electromagnetic wave for GSM-900/GSM-1800 band which is used in Europe. The Giryong village and Sosan field are selected as candidate regions according to the measurement results in Gijang-gun, Busan. The vertical polarizations is about 12 dBm higher than horizontal polarization at two candidate places, and it is measured 25 dBm lower than urban. The maximum value of measured strength of vertical polarizations in the cellular/GSM-900 bands are -65 dBm at Giryong village and -69 dBm at Sosan field, respectively. The maximum value of measured results of PCS/GSM-1800 bands are -90.5 dBm at Giryong village and -85 dBm at Sosan field, respectively, We confirm that the receiving strength of electromagnetic wave are very weak below -65 dBm at two candidate places and the signals of GSM frequency bands not affect to conversional system, then it is considered as a suitable place for GSM mobile field test.

Assigning different frequency resources among adjacent cells, namely the frequency reuse technique can be utilized to mitigate intercell interference, which is a major cause of performance degradation in cellular systems. Since most of conventional frequency reuse patterns are limited to the two-dimensional environment, the research for the three-dimensional frequency reuse would be beneficial especially for the implementation of femto cells in downtown office buildings. We propose frequency reuse patterns in three-dimensional space and evaluate their performance of each pattern in terms of channel capacity. In particular, we show that the proposed three-dimensional frequency reuse patterns can be applied for carrier-aggregated transmission of LTE-Advanced systems. The performance of the proposed patterns is evaluated using computer simulation.

To reduce the outage probability and to increase the transmission capacity, the importance of repeaters in cellular systems keeps increasing. Unlike optical repeaters which require wireline connections, RF repeaters are easy to install, have low limitations in location and also have a reduced operational expense such as the optical fiber maintenance cost. On the other hand, RF repeaters suffer the interference due to the feedback signals between the transmitter and receiver antennas, hence require an extra interference cancellation method when the amount of the feedback signal reduction by using the shielding is not sufficient. In this paper, a channel estimation method for two-path feedback interference signals in the ICS (Interference Cancellation System) repeaters using baseband signal processing is proposed and its performance is evaluated. When compared with the conventional method which estimates each multipath individually, the proposed method achieves 10 dB performance gain in terms of the normalized mean-squared-error.

Group communication that involves the setup of a list of users has been a topic of interest in mobile industry. Push to Talk over Cellular (PoC), a group communication service for cellular phone network, is a type of half duplex communications that allows a single person to reach an active talk group without making several calls, but a single button press. Based on this service, we build a new protocol called Push to Talk over Mobile Wimax that uses group communication service in 802.16e network. Also, weper formed simulation to verify and evaluate performance of the designed service in Mobile Wimax network. From the results of performance evaluation, network administrators can evaluate the stability of network and make a better of network's shortcoming and have decision to build the robust network.

In this paper, we investigate the performance of MMR system in Non-transparent mode. The IEEE 802.16j MMR system has two node of operation, Single-frame (in band) and Multi-frame (out band) mode. In the analysis, we assume that channel interference between MR-BS and RS, or between RSs anywhere in the given area is ignored. The performance is presented in terms of the delay and the frame efficiency by varying number of RS and BS coverage to RS coverage ratio and the maximum coverage area of a BS by varying traffic density. Analytical results show that the Single-frame is more efficient than Multi-frame in frame efficiency and coverage extension.

In this paper, we evaluate system performance and propose signal separation and detection when a user with one antenna shares the co-channel together with a user with two space-time coded antennas. The proposed technique can identify co-channel users by an interference cancellation method and detect the signals by maximum likelihood method. Simulation results show that the shortcoming of the Minimum Mean-Squared Error technique which can be applied two users with the same number of antenna but can not applied for heterogeneous MIMO users with the different number of antennas. Also, we apply the proposed scheme to OFDM system and evaluate the system performance. By simulations, we identify that the performance of the proposed system is the same as that of the existing single antenna users and improves the performance of the two-antenna MIMO users.

In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview and classification on a wide range of the existing location management schemes which have been reported for wireless cellular networks and Mobile IP-based networks, respectively. In addition, from the various previous literature, we derive common key conceptual techniques, their main design goals and performance considerations on them, which can provide a useful guidance for understanding location management schemes regardless of network types. The aim of this paper is not to propose a new scheme for location management, but to highlight the various key design features involved in the design of the existing location management schemes, and to enhance an insight into the fundamental principles and techniques for designing more efficient and optimized location management scheme in future wireless mobile networks. We expect that regardless of network types, these underlying fundamental principles and conceptual techniques could be also easily tailored for more efficient mobility/QoS support in future mobile computing environments.

The purpose of IEEE 802.16j is to extend coverage and to enhance throughput by using relay station additionally to conventional IEEE 802.16e . The cellular system experiences performance degradation at the cell edge due to pathloss, shadow and multipath fading. We can get advantage of spatial diversity gain by using relays more than two cooperatively in the IEEE 802.16j system. Cooperative relaying using space-time code provides better performance under multipath fading and has more robustness against the shadow fading than single relaying. In this paper, we investigate the performance of IEEE 802.16j using cooperative relaying by link level simulation. We also show that the cooperative relaying system achieves better performance than the conventional single relaying system. We apply realistic shadow model considering correlations between shadow fadings of different relaying paths. It is shown that the performance of the system depends highly on the spatial location of relay stations.

Since the number of user equipments has also increased rapidly, the problem of network load due to frequent handover of user equipments has occurred. As a solution to this we expect to be able to reduce network overload problems and the delay caused by handover using LTE-based D2D communication. In this paper, we proposed a proposal to support handover via a preceding user equipment using LTE-based D2D communication by handover method of existing LTE network. We proposed a method that can efficiently solve the handover situation of the user equipment via the preceding user equipment in order to reduce the overlapping signal used at the time of handover between the base station and the user equipment. The handover delay accompanying the change in the number of user equipments was able to confirm the result that the suggested scheme was reduced as compared with the existing LTE handover.

In this paper, we considered the scenario that one cellular link and muti-D2D links share the same frequency resource which can improve the spectrum efficiency during uplink communication in LTE (Long Term Evolution)-Advanced network. In order to reduce the interference caused to the D2D users, we set DME (Discovery and Management Entity) which can send the area information to eNB(evolved Node B). We proposed a resource allocation scheme by using these assistant devices to reduce the interference that CUE (Cellular User Equipment) causes to DUE Rx (D2D UE Receiver). Basing on the area information, in order to mitigate the interference among the D2D pairs which share the same frequency resource, a power control scheme has been proposed. The simulation results prove that by using the DMEs, the proposed schemes improve the stability of D2D communication and bring the highest performance of the communication system when comparing to the other different schemes.
