This paper presents and compares several techniques that detect the symbol rate of unknown received signal. Symbol rate is detected from the power spectral density of the circuits such as the delay and multiplier circuit, the square law circuit, and analytic signal, etc. As a result of discrete Fourier transform of the output signals of these circuits, a lot of spectral lines and some peaks appear in frequency domain and the position of first peak is corresponding to the symbol rate. If a spectral line on the frequency that is not located in symbol rate is larger than the first peak, the symbol rate is erroneously detected. Thus, the ratio between the value of first peak and the highest side spectral line is used for the measure of the performance of symbol rate detector. For the MPSK modulation, the analytic signal method shows better performance than the delay and multiplier and square law circuits when the received signal power is lager than -20dB. It is also noted that the delay and multiplier circuit is not able to detect the symbol rate for the QAM modulation.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to improve the precision of initial carrier-frequency offset estimation for multiband-OFDM (MB-OFDM) UWB system which is considering the quantization-noise effect. In the general OFDM system, the two adjacent and repeated preamble symbols are used for the initial carrier-frequency synchronization while the performance of the frequency-offset estimation is bounded by quantization effect generated from analog-to-digital conversion at the receiver. This paper proposes a method in which one-symbol interval between two adjacent preamble symbols for the initial frequency synchronization is extended to multiple-symbol interval between non-adjacent symbols in an extent that phase ambiguity does not occur. In this paper, we also present '6' as optimal multiple symbol interval for the MB-OFDM system with 30 preamble symbols on 3-band hopping and with 4-bit A/D conversion at the receiver. Under the channel environments for the MB-OFDM UWB system, the simulation results show that the proposed estimation algorithm can achieve the initial estimation in offset precision less than 5 ppm.

Conventional pragmatic TCMs need sector phase quantizer to apply Viterbi decoder which uses 3-bit soft decision. A symbol transformation applied to the incoming I-channel and Q-channel symbols allows to use Viterbi decoder without sector phase quantizer. We analyzed structure and performance of proposed decoder, and applied it to the turbo decoder. We know that the performance of proposed decoder is better than that of conventional decoder by 1 ［㏈］because of increasing of Euclidean distance.

최근 3D HDTV (3-Dimensional High Definition Television)에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 국내에서도 3D HDTV 방송 서비스를 위하여 기존의 ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) 8-VSB (8-Vestigial Side Band) 시스템을 수정하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서도 프레임 생성 과정에서 프레임 헤드 부분에 PN (Pseudo-Noise)심볼을 사용하는 새로운 시스템의 개념을 제안하고, 이 시스템을 수정된 ATSC 시스템이라 부를 것이다. 수정된 ATSC 시스템은 기존 ATSC 8-VSB 시스템에서 사용되던 VSB 변조방식을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 수정된 ATSC 시스템에 적용 가능한 반송파 주파수 복구 방식을 제안한다. 제안된 반송파 주파수 복구 방식은 Fitz 알고리즘을 사용하는 거친 주파수 복구부와 간단한 PN심볼 상관 알고리즘을 사용하는 미세 주파수 복구부로 구성된다. 그리고 진폭만을 변조하여 사용하는 VSB 변조 방식의 경우 심볼 정보가 동위상 채널에만 존재하고, 직교위상 채널은 단순히 동위상 채널의 힐버트 변환된 값에 지나지 않는다. 그러므로 VSB 변조된 심볼은 QAM 변조된 심볼 처럼 일정한 배열을 가지지 않고, 반송파 주파수 옵셋에 더욱 민감하게 된다. 이를 극복하기 위하여 수신된 PN심볼에 대한 위상 보정 과정을 수행하고, 이 과정은 수정된 ATSC 시스템의 반송파 주파수 복구 시 성능을 향상 시킨다.

The crest factor properties of 16-QAM modulated one- and two-code assisted multi-carrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) signals employing complementary pair as spreading sequences are characterized. It is shown that a set of relationship between the two 16-QAM symbols entirely characterize the power envelope waveforms of the signals. There exists 60 different sets of relationship, which results in 16 different crest factors as a result of various equivalent transforms on the corresponding message symbols. It is also shown that the individual crest factor corresponding to each message combination is always bounded by 3dB.

본 논문에선 LR 문법의 부분 클래스를 동치인 LL 문법으로 변환하는 방법을 제시한다. 이 변환이 적용 가능한 문법을 확장된k`-transformable 문법이라 정의한다. 변환된 문법은 left-to-right 커버의 성질을 만족한다. 기존 연구에서 제시한 변환 방법은 LR 문법의 부분 클래스인 {{{{k`-transformable 클래스와 PLR 클래스를 LL 문법으로 바꾼다. 이 논문에서 제시하는 새로운 변환 방법의 적용 가능한 문법의 범위는 k`-transformable 클래스와 PLR 클래스를 포함한다. 기존의 커버링 성질을 만족하는 LL로의 문법 변환은 보편적인 LR 파서의 행동을 시뮬레이션하여 얻어진다. 이 과정에서 쉬프트, 리듀스 행동 이외에 무한의 가능성을 가진 스택 스트링의 유한 표현을 위해 리덕션 심볼에 대한 예상 행동이 추가된다. 본 논문에서는 파싱 문맥을 나타내는 LR 아이템들을 기존의 스택 스트링 표현 형태에 추가하여 스택 스트링 표현법을 정제하고, 리덕션 심볼에 대한 예상 방법을 확장하는 정형식을 제시한다. 이에 근거하여 LL 커버링 문법이 존재하는 클래스를 확장된 {{{{k`-transformable 문법으로 확장시킨다.Abstract A new transformation of a subclass of LR(k`) grammars into equivalent LL(k`) grammars is studied. The subclass of LR(k`) grammars is called extended k`-transformable. The transformed LL(k`) grammars left-to-right cover the original LR(k`) grammars. Previous transformations transform k`-transformable and PLR(k`) into LL(k`). The new transformation is more powerful in that it handles the extended k`-transformable subclass of LR(k`), which strictly includes k`-transformable and PLR(k`) classes. The previous covering transformations into LL grammars are obtained by simulating the actions of the conventional LR parser. Specially, a predict action of reduction goals is added to the action set in order to finitely represent stack string. In this paper, the stack string representation is refined by adding LR items to represent a parsing context, and the prediction of reduction goal is extended by generalizing the prediction formalism. Based on them, the previous grammar classes with LL({{{{k`) covering grammars are extended to extended k`-transformable grammars.

The performance of maximum likelihood(ML) detection for the given channel is analyzed in spatially multiplexed MIMO system. In order to obtain the vector symbol error rate, we define error vectors which represent the geometrical relation between lattice points. The properties of error vectors are analyzed to show that all lattice points in infinite lattice almost surely have four nearest neighbors after random channel transformation. Using this information and minimum distance obtained by the modified sphere decoding algorithm, we formulate the analytical performance of vector symbol error over the given channel. To verify the result, we simulate ML performance over various random channel which are classified into three categories: unitary channel, dense channel, and sparse channel. From the simulation results, it is verified that the derived analytical result gives a good approximation about the performance of ML detector over the all random MIMO channels.

OFDM modulation has been used for a transmission scheme in 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) and Wi-Fi systems to mitigate the effects of frequency selective fading channels. An OFDM modulation is a block transmission scheme because an OFDM symbol consists of multiple subcarriers with narrow bandwidth. Therefore, all OFDM symbols in a frame should be filled out with data and padding bits. Depending on the amount of data, more padding bits than information bits can occupy the last OFDM symbol. Such inefficiency causes the loss of throughput. To overcome this problem, an efficiency padding method is proposed by using the property of DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform). In the proposed method, symbol duration of the last symbol is changed depending on the number used data subcarriers in the last symbol. With numerical evaluation, it is examined that throughput enhancement achieved by the proposed method can be about 20% depending a transmission scheme and data length.

In the next generation mobile multimedia communications, the broad band shot-burst transmissions are used to reduce end-to-end transmission delay, and to limit the time variation of wireless channels over a burst. However, training overhead is very significant for such short burst formats. So, the availability of the short training sequence and the fast converging adaptive algorithm is essential in the system adopting the symbol-by-symbol adaptive equalizer. In this paper, we propose an adaptive equalizer using the DWMT (discrete multi-wavelet transform) and LMS (least mean square) adaptation. The proposed equalizer has a faster convergence rate than that of the existing transform-domain equalizers, while the increase of computational complexity is very small.
