To increase throughput efficiency and improve performance, FTN(Faster Than Nyquist) method and LDPC(Low Density Parity Code) codes are employed in DVB-S3 system. In this paper, we proposed efficient turbo equalization model to minimize inter symbol interference induced by FTN transmission. This paper introduces two conventional scheme employing SIC(Successive Interference Cancellation) and BCJR equalizer. Then, we proposed new scheme to resolve problems in this two conventional scheme. To make performance improved in turbo equalization model, the outputs of LDPC and BCJR equalizer are iteratively exchange probabilistic information. In fed LDPC outputs as extrinsic informa tion of BCJR equalizer. we split LDPC output to separate bit probabilities. We compare performance of proposed scheme to that of conventional methods through using simulation in AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) channel. We confirmed that performance was improved compared to conventional methods as increasing throughput parameters of FTN.

In the recent digital communication systems, the performance of Turbo Code used as the error correction coding method depends on the interleaver size influencing the free distance determination and the iterative decoding algorithms of the turbo decoder. However, some iterations are needed to get a better performance, but these processes require a large time delay. Recently methods of reducing the number of iteration have been studied without degrading original performance. In this paper, the new method of combining ME (Mean Estimate) stopping criterion with SDR (sign difference ratio) stopping criterion among previous stopping criteria is proposed, and the fact of compensating each method's missed detection is verified. Faster decoding is realized that about 1~2 time iterations to reduced through adopting this method into serially concatenated both decoders. System Environments were assumed W-CDMA forward link system with intense MAI (multiple access interference).

케이블 방송망에서 멀티-Gbps(Giga bit per second) 초고속 인터넷 서비스 제공을 위해 최근 북미에서 DOCSIS 3.1(Data over Cable Service Interface Specifications Version 3.1) 표준을 발표하였다. DOCSIS 3.1 은 최대 10Gbps 하향 데이터 전송과 최대 2Gbps 의 상향 데이터 전송을 목표로 한다. DOCSIS 3.1 이 이전 DOCSIS 표준들과 다른 점은 전송 효율을 높이기 위해 물리계층 전송 방식에 큰 변화를 주었다는 점이다. 기존 6MHz 대역폭의 단일 반송파 전송 방식에서 최대 192MHz 광역 채널의 다중 반송파 전송 방식으로 변경하였다. 또한 채널 오류정정 방식으로 BCH(Bose, Chaudhuri, and Hocquenghem)와 LDPC(Low Density Parity Check) 연접부호를 적용하여, 이로 인한 SNR 성능 이득 통해 4096-QAM 의 고차 변조를 지원한다. 본 논문에서는 최대 192MHz 의 광역 채널로 전송되는 약 2Gbps 의 전송 데이터에 대한 채널 오류 정정을 위해 고속의 LDPC 복호기 구현 방법을 제시한다.

In this paper, an adaptive bit-reliability mapping is proposed for the bit-level Chase combining in LDPC-coded high-order modulation systems. Contrary to the previously known bit-reliability mapping that assigns the information (or parity) bits to more (or less) reliable bit positions, the proposed mapping adaptively assigns codeword bits to the bit positions of various reliabilities by considering the characteristics of code and protection levels of bits in high-order modulation symbol. Compared with the symbol-level Chase combining and the constellation rearrangement bit mapping, the proposed mapping gives $0.7{\sim}1.3$ dB and $0.1{\sim}1.0$ dB performance gain at $FER=10^{-3}$ with no additional complexity, respectively. Adaptive bit-reliability mappings are derived for various environments and the validity of them is confirmed through simulation.

In the underwater communication, the performance of system is reduced because of the inter-symbol interference occur by the multi-path. In the recent years, to deal with poor channel environment and improve the throughput, the efficient concatenated structure of equalization, channel codes and Space Time Codes has been studied as MIMO system in the underwater communication. Space Time Codes include Space Time Block Codes and Space Time Trellis Codes in underwater communication. Space Time Trellis Codes are optimum for equalization and channel codes among the Space Time Codes to apply in the MIMO environment. Therefore, in this paper, turbo pi codes are used for the outer code to efficiently transmit in the multi-path channel environment. The inner codes consist of Space Time Trellis Codes with transmission diversity and coding gain in the MIMO system. And Zero Forcing method is used to remove inter-symbol interference. Finally, the performance of this model is simulated in the underwater channel.

스피어 복호 알고리즘 (sphere decoding algorithm)은 다중 입출력 (MIMO) 통신 시스템에서 사용되는 복호기중 최대 우도 복호기 (Maximum Likelihood Detector)와 비슷한 BER(bit error rate)성능을 가지고 복잡도를 줄일수 있어서 최근 많이 연구되어 왔다. 이때 공간 다중화와 채널 부호의 연접시스템에서 연판정 정보(Soft output information) 를 스피어 복호 알고리즘을 통해 생성하기 위한 방법으로 리스트 스피어 복호 알고리즘 (List Sphere Decoding)이 알려져있다. 기존 리스트 스피어 디코딩 알고리즘은 리스트를 반지름을 업데이트 하지 않으므로 탐색시 복잡도가 매우 높다는것이 문제가 되므로, 차원별로 최적해의 가능성이 높은 격자 주변으로 검색을 제한하여 복잡도를 줄이는 알고리즘을 제안하고 성능과 복잡도를 실험한다.

The unequal symbol error probability of TCM(trellis coded modulation) is analyzed and applied to the derivation of bit error probability of /RS/Trellis concatenated coded-modulation system. An upper bound of the symbol error probability of TCM concatenated with RS code is obtained by exploiting the unequal symbol error probability of TCM, and it is applied to the derivation of the upper bound of the bit error probability of the RS/Trellis concatenated coded-modulation system. Our upper bounds of the concatenated codes are tighter than the earlier established other upper bounds.

The bit error probability of RS/trellis concatenated coded-modualtion system in the mobile radio channel is analyzed. A new upper bound to the symbol error probability of the inner TCM in the mobile radio channel is obtained by exploiting the unequal symbol error probability of the TCM. This bound is applied to the derivation of the upper bound to the bit error probability of the concatenated coded-modulation system. An efficient way of searching distance spectrum of the TCM in mobile radio channel is devised. Our new bounds are tighter than the earlier studied other bounds.

In this paper, we analyzed efficient decoding scheme with FTN(Faster than Nyquist) method that is transmission method faster than Nyquist theory and increase the throughput. Applying the FTN method to satellite and underwater communication, we proposed an efficient transceiver model. To minimize ISI(Inter-Symbol Interference) induced by FTN signal, turbo equalization algorithms that iteratively exchange probabilistic information between Viterbi equalizer based on BCJR algorithm and LDPC decoder are used in satellite communication. In others, for underwater communication, DFE equalizer and LDPC decoder are concatenated to improve performance.
