The Global Positioning System (GPS), which has various military and commercial applications, is designed to estimate the location of the specific user or object. In order to accurately estimate the location, GPS requires at least four satellite signals. The GPS receiver operates on extremely low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environment and it may suffer from various interference signals with the extremely high power. In this paper, we introduce a blind adaptive receiver based on the modified despreader, which suppress interference signals and detect GPS signals of interest without requiring explicit angle-of-arrival (AOA) information. We, also, provide the mathematical analysis for the signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) of the modified despeader beamformer output. A representative computer simulation example is presented to illustrate the interference suppression performance of the considered GPS receiver and mathematical analysis of the SINR.

In this paper, we introduce a modified interference cancellation scheme for multiuser detection in CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access). This detector uses SIC(Successive Interference Canceller) scheme and divides the received signals to reduce the delay time. In this proposed structure, the active users are divided into a number of groups. Within each group, parallel detection is performed to estimate the output signal of that group. The estimated output signal due to that group is then subtracted from the received signal and the resulting residual signal is used for the parallel detection of the next group. This parallel and serial cancellation process is repeated until the last group in the stage is completed. The estimated output signals due to all groups except -th group are MAI for the user signals in -th group. Therefore, the estimated output signals due to all groups except th group are subtracted from the received signal, and then the obtained signal becomes the input signal of -th SIC. The proposed RDSIC (Reduced Delay time of Successive Interference Canceller) has performance and complexity close to the SIC, but with much less detection delay.

This paper considers interference suppression and multipath mitigation in Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs). We propose an anti-jam GNSS receiver which suppresses interference and multipath by subspace projection method. The resulting interference suppressed and multipath mitigated signal is then process by a beamformer, whose weight vector maximizes the signal-to-noise ratio of the output signal. The enhanced performance is shown by refined cross correlation and beam pattern.

The array weights that will maximize the SNR for any type of noise environment are determined by the function of the antenna design configuration and the directions of receiving target and interference signals. The conventional SLCs(sidelobe cancellers) using the SNR maximization perform worst from the saturation of the receiving system of main channel when the main antenna has pattern with high gain at the arrival angle of strong interference. In this paper, the new SLC is accomplished by using two independent antenna architecture. Main antenna is implemented with adaptive nulling, which is used for rejecting high-power interference primarily. Auxiliary antenna is realized with adaptive array for receiving interference signal to be suppressed completely, which has a characteristics of sufficient gain for every direction. The new SLC is implemented with above both antennas. We show that the new SLC, which consists of the adaptive nulling main antenna and the adaptive array auxiliary antenna, is useful in reducing the effect of strong interference like jammer, because the adaptive nulling at main antenna prevents its receiver and signal processor for saturation by strong interference. The proposed SLC has improved SNR over the conventional SLCs. The improved SNR at sidelobe region is typically more than 7 dB for a given test signal. Moreover, it improves the SNR of about 20 dB under strong interference at mainlobe.

DS/CDMA 이동통신 환경에서 채널의 용량을 제한하는 가장 큰 요인은 다중 사용자 간섭 신호의 영향이다. 본 논문에서는 어레이 안테나와 적응 혼합 다중 사용자 검파기 구조 (MUD: Multi-User Detection)를 이용하여 이러한 문제를 제거한다. 어레이 안테나의 각각의 빔 형성기는 MUD에서 궤환되는 기준 신호를 이용하여 원하는 사용자의 방향으로 빔을 형성하고 간섭 신호 방향으로는 널을 형성하여 제거하게 된다. 수신 신호의 전력이 제어되지 못하여 원근 문제(near-far problem)가 발생할 경우, 제안한 MUD는 적응적으로 지배적인 상관 값에 대해서는 직렬형, 비슷한 크기의 신호들은 병렬형 간섭 제거기를 통하여 제거함으로써 기존의 고정형 간섭 제거기보다 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

In this paper, a back propagation neural network teaming algorithm based on the complex multilyer perceptron is represented for suppressing narrowband interference of the received signals in DS-SS mobile communication system. We proposed neural network adaptive correlator(NNAC) which has fast convergence rate and good performance with combining back propagation neural network and the receiver of DS-SS. We analyzed and proved that NNAC has lower bit error probability than that of traditional RAKE receiver through results of computer simulation in the presence of the tone and narrow-band interference and the co-channel interference.

직접 대역 확산 통신 방식에서 처리 이득에 비해 강한 협대역 간섭 신호가 존재 할 때 성능 향상을 위하여 다중 사용자 탐지 기술(MUD)을 사용하여 간섭 신호 제고를 위한 신호 검출을 하였으며, 적응 접속 채널 배열 응답과 다중 사용자 검출을 하기 위하여 BISP 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 CDMA 채널에서 MAI와 ISI 검출에 BISP 알고리즘 신호 흐름 형태를 파악하여, 신호대 간섭 비율(SIR)과 신호대 잡음비율(SNR)에서 시간에 따른 비트율를 평가 하였다. 제안한 BISP 알고리즘은 방사 특성에 시간 지연 효율이 절반 이상 차이가 나지만 채널 특성 따라서 입력 신호를 조정 할 수 있다. 그리고 매치 필터를 통과하면서 각 채널간의 간섭을 억제하고, 사용자 검출을 용이하게 처리할 수 있다.

간섭신호가 원하는 신호에 coherent한 경우에는 원하는 신호와 간섭신호간의 cross correlation에 의해 공분산 행렬의 rank가 줄어들게 되어 coherent한 간섭신호의 도래각을 추정할 수 없게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 발표된 기존의 방법중 대칭 어레이(Symmetric array)방법은 계산량이 많아지고 공간 스무딩(Spatial Smoothing)방법은 array aperture size에서 손해를 보게 되어 분해능이 떨어지는 단점이 있다[1,2,3].

This paper proposes a removal method of signal interference between ultrasound sensors where ghost signals due to interference are excluded and correct signal is recognized in distance mensurement using ultrasound sensors. The proposed method detects and excludes ghost signals when previous measured distance is compared to current measured distance and the distance difference exceeds a threshold. The threshold is fixed in conventional methods, so ghost signals cannot be correctly excluded when ultrasound sensor or target object move rapidly. On the contrary, to improve accuracy, the threshold is not fixed in the proposed method, and the threshold is adpatively determined based on the relative velocity when ultrasound sensor or target object move. Experiments of distance measurement with ultrasound signal interference are carried out where multiple ultrasound sensors of same type are exploited with maximum interference, and the results show that the proposed method efficiently exclude ghost signals.

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.
