Geo-location using a cellular network is a core technology for LBS together with GPS. With preamble symbols broadcasted in each frame, geo-location using WiBro network can be easily implemented. Because the WiBro network has a cellular structure, it is difficult for a mobile station to detect signals from multiple base stations. In order to get user position using trilateration, long integration techniques for sensitivity enhancement should be employed. This paper presents hybrid integration scheme for WiBro network. By analyzing coherent and non-coherent integration loss according to frequency residual and SNR respectively, optimal combination of the hybrid integration is proposed. Simulation results show that the hybrid integration method is profitable in WiBro network when the frequency residual is estimated and compensated accurately.

In this paper, we consider 19 cells with the two tiers for polar-rectangular coordinates (PRCs) and provide the cell edge performance of cellular networks based on distance from cell center i.e., BS (base station). When FFR is applied(or adopted) to cell edge, it is expected that BS cooperation, or a coordinated multipoint (CoMP) multiple access strategy will further improve the system performance. We proposed a new method to evaluate the sum rate capacity of the MIMO DC of multicell system. We improve the performance of cell edge users for intercell interference cancelation in cooperative downlink multicell systems. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the reference schemes, in terms of cell edge SINR (signal-to-interference-noise ratio) with a minimal impact on the network path loss exponent. We show 13 dB improvements in cell-edge SINR by using reuse of three relative to reuse of one. BS cooperation has been proposed to mitigate the cell edge effect.

In this paper, an novel resource allocation scheme is proposed for adaptive multiuser OFDM-TDD systems in multiuser, multicell and frequency-selective time-varying channels. The optimal frame size and mode switching level of each user is determined by maximizing the spectrum efficiency. In multi-cell environment, the allocation scheme must consider the cochannel interference of other cells. The measured SINR is changed in one frame size because the interference is changed. The frame size is determined to consider both the optimal frame size and cochannel user's frame size of other cells. we propose the efficient resource allocation scheme which is satisfied the target BER.

In this paper, the performance of HCS (hierarchical cell structure), which consists of macro-cell and micro-cell, has been analyzed by assuming that the cells in HAPS (high altitude plat(on station) are tessellated to provide wide coverage, control the co-channel interference and give the higher spectrum efficiency. Since the outside-cell interference factor is well blown to analyze the effects of interference between cells, the effects of interference from the micro-cells into the macro-cells has been estimated using the factor as a performance estimation of HCS in HAPS. HCS served by HAPS can be realized by permitting the suitable power control and the proper number of users in micro-cell because the interference from the micro-cell into the macro-cell is not a function of the distance between cells but a function of the power control and the number of users.

In this paper, a fast diagonal-weighted Jacket matrices (DWJMs) is proposed to have the orthogonal architecture. We develop the successive DWJM to reduce the computational load while factorizing the large-order DWJMs into the low-order sparse matrices with the fast algorithms. The proposed DWJM is then applied to the precoding multiple-input and multiple output (MIMO) wireless communications because of its diagonal-weighted framework with element-wise inverse characteristics. Based on the properties of the DWJM, the DWJM can be used as alternative open loop cyclic delay diversity (CDD) precoding, which has recently become part of the cellular communications systems. Performance of the DWJM-based precoding system is verified for orthogonal space-time block code (OSTBC) MIMO LTE systems.

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to create clusters of geographically distributed base stations which cooperatively transmit signals in cellular mobile communication systems. The proposed method utilizes a sequential selection approach to choose candidate base stations which can provide maximum weighted sum-rate gain when they participate in the cooperative transmission with the existing cluster. In particular, the proposed method limits the maximum number of base stations in a cluster by considering the system operational and implementation complexities. Moreover, the combinations of clusters dynamically change along with variations of channel environments. Through computer simulations, performance of the proposed method is verified by comparing with the non-cooperative transmission method and the static clustering method. Numerical result shows that the proposed sequential selection based clustering method is especially advantageous for the performance improvement of lower percentile users in terms of average throughput, and thus the proposed method can effectively improve the fairness among users.

This paper studies how to solve a problem caused by M2M terminals sending a few data based on $3^{rd}$ Generation Partnership Project(3GPP) Long Term Evolution-Advanced(LTE-A) system and then it is analyzed, proposed, and introduced into the techniques. Especially, it is introduced solution for the lack of Random Access Channel and an increasing number of latency caused by countless M2M devices. It is proposed the technology for M2M grouping as well as allowable access probability according to user type. As it decreases the number of terminal by grouping M2M devices to try random access at PRACH, it can be reduced collision between Cellular users and M2M devices. So, it is proved that the proposed mechanism can solve the increasing average latency of random access on system coexisting Cellular users and M2M devices through simulations.

CoMP(Coordinated Multi-Point transmission and reception) refers to a cooperative transmission strategy to control the interference from adjacent base stations in cellular mobile communication systems, which efficiently enhances the data throughput of the systems. As the number of the base stations participating in cooperative transmission increases, however, a larger amount of information exchange to carry the CSI(Channel State Information) of the mobile terminals is required. In this paper, we propose a partial CoMP transmission method for systems under the constraint of finite feedback information data. This method selects candidates of base stations which can provide high efficiency gain when they participate in the CoMP set. To achieve this, the cooperative base station combination is constructed by considering the preferred base stations of users. The cooperative base station combinations are dynamically applied since the preferred base station combinations of users may be different. We perform computer simulations to compare performance of the non-CoMP, full-CoMP and partial CoMP in terms of the average throughput using finite feedback and demonstrate the performance improvement of the proposed method.

In this paper, we have proposed a FCB detection algorithm for the GSM system which is european cellular standard. The detection algorithm can be implemented using received signal sampler, correlator, and post detection combiner. GSM mobile phone can use the proposed algorithm for detection of the Broadcasting Channel, and to obtain the initial timing estimate. The proposed algorithm has a architecture which is suitable for DSP or ASIC implementation, and required memory size is small. The performance of the algorithm is a function of the processing data window size and the threshold values. Proper window size and the threshold values can be determined by analyzing the correlator and combiner. The proposed algorithm has been implemented using DSP, and the performance was verified using baseband simulation. The simulation assumed frequency offset values of 0ppm and 15ppm with the receiver filter bandwidth set at both minimum and maximum. It is shown that the algorithm is robust under various assumptions, and suitable for real implementations.

In this paper, we propose an optimal coverage extension scheme in the OFDMA based mobile multi-hop relay system. First, we propose an optimal frequency and time assignment scheme for maximizing system throughput and analyze the frame efficiency of schemes. Then, under the given BS capacity, we find the maximum number of relay hops that can be used to estimate the maximum coverage area of a BS in a multi-hop relay system. Analytical results show that the proposed scheme is efficient in coverage extension and throughput maximization in OFDMA based multi-hop relay system. Our work may be a rough guideline to control the parameters for multi-hop relay system optimization.
