The radiation characteristics of a phased array antenna is changed according to the beam steering angle. The monopulse tracking system calculates the prediction angle using the radiation characteristics of antenna. Therefore, the monopulse ratio curve is changed according to the beam steering angle for the monopulse tracking system using a phase array antenna, and the tracking accuracy goes down. In the case of a single-channel monopulse system, the monopulse rate curve is controlled by the configuration variables of the system. In this paper, a simplified formula was presented for adaptive control of monopulse system configuration variables on beam steering angle. The presented formula can induce a uniform monopulse ratio curve for the beam steering angle as well as the phased array antenna design parameters.

Broadcast nature of wireless medium and path-loss reduction create a favourable condition for collaborative communications (CC) among single-antenna users to gain the powerful benefits of multi-antenna system without the demand for physical arrays. This paper proposes a CC strategy adapting to the propagation environment changes by optimizing the transmit signal amplification factors to simplify the structure of maximum likelihood (ML) detector and to obtain the minimum error probability as well. The closed-form BER expression was also derived and compared to the simulation results to evaluate the performance of the suggested solution. A variety of numerical results revealed the cooperation significantly outperforms non-cooperative counterpart under flat Rayleigh fading channel plus AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise).

The utilization techniques for multiple transmit and receive antennas or high capacity modulation schemes are essential to cope with the rapidly increasing demand for realizing more diverse wireless communication services with high rates. However, employing multiple receive antennas at the mobile units seems less practical due at the size and power limitations. Therefore, transmit diversify techniques have been extensively investigated for the downlink transmission to improve the performance In order to overcome the above mentioned problems, we construct a simulation model which combines STC and polarization diversity which scheme is requiring less cost to realize. Multi-level quadrature amplitude modulation (MQAM) is an attractive modulation scheme for wireless communication due to the high spectral efficiency it provides. Thus, the performance for our scheme is presented when 16QAM modulation techniques are applied. and compared with the former schemes.

At the mobile unit for adaptation the propagation environment, it is necessity to adapt very fast the weight coefficient vector of adaptive array antenna In this paper, for the BPSK and BFSK signals with S/I=2, S/N=10 subband adaptive array signal processing method to the linear array antenna using the LMS & the Kalman filter algorithm is proposed. For the 4 elements equidistance linear array antenna systems LMS and Kalman algorithms with subband adaptive instruction principles using the subband signal processing method are adopted and the computer simulation results to the constant amplitude envelope signals such as BPSK or BFSK can be seen that the convergence characteristics of directional patterns and the signal following characteristics are more fast and stable.

The potential ability of the Applebaum type adaptive array to suppress the multipath signals is examined. The output Signal-to-Noise Ratio is expressed in terms of (1) the input SNR. (2) relative multipath signal amplitude, and (3) ambient noise when a multipath component is present Computer simulation is done on several performance measures to learn that the performance of the array depends upon the magnitude and the phase of the correlation coefficient. It is also shown that the performance is maximized when the phase of the correlation coefficient is zero degree.

In this paper, beamforming algorithm is proposed which can obtain diversity gain in beamforming system that deploy antenna elements with half-wavelength. The proposed algorithm provides beam-pattern using eigen-vectors that span received signal subspace. The criterion to decide optimal rank of eigen-space used for beamforming is also proposed. A beamforming system applied the proposed algorithm shows better performance with diversity gain as getting larger angle spread. This paper provides a description of proposed algorithm with analysis of the performance using various computer simulations.

Blind channel estimation of communication channels is a problem of important current theoretical concerns. Recently proposed solutions for this problem exploit the diversity induced by antenna array or time oversampling, leading to the so-called, second order statistics techniques. This paper proposes the blind adaptive channel estimation using multichannel linear prediction method. Computer simulations are presented to compare the proposed algorithm with the existing ones.

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive MIMO switching algorithm that provides the optimal trade-off between throughput and reliability of data in MIMO system. The proposed algorithm is based on the variable packet error predictor which is robust for channel estimation error, and we show that our algorithm has a better spectrum efficiency than the conventional MIMO switching techniques about 8 percent point.

통신 채널에서 블라인드 채널 인식은 매우 중요한 문제이다. 블라인드 채널 인식은 고차 통계를 이용하면 구할 수 있으나 최근에는 오버샘플링한 수신신호를 이용하거나 수신측의 안테나 어레이를 이용한 신호의 2차 통계값을 이용한 방법에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 기존의 알고리듬은 잡음이 없는 환경에서 LS 방법에 기반을 두고 있기 때문에 잡음이 강한 채널에서는 원하는 성능을 얻을 수 없는 단점이 있다. 수신신호의 상관행렬의 최소 고유값에 대응하는 고유벡터는 채널의 임펄스 응답에 관한 정보를 포함하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 고유벡터를 매 시간마다 갱신시키면서 구하는 적응 알고리듬을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 블라인드 채널 인식 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리듬은 잡음에 강인한 특성을 보일 뿐만 아니라 기존의 알고리듬들 보다 우수한 채널 추정 성능을 보임을 모의실험을 통하여 검증하였다.
