In this paper, we propose a wireless transmission scheme that maximizes transmission efficiency per frequency bandwidth in a single carrier modulation scheme. The proposed scheme employs a decision directed channel tracking technique to remove both pilot signal and the guard interval signal between symbols in frames. It performs a raised cosine pulse shaping function with an roll-off factor of 0.05. In addition, 2×2 multiple input and multiple output using two polarized antennas is applied and both equalization and signal separation are performed in the frequency domain. The wireless modem with this technology confirms that the transmission speed of up to 63.3Mbps is achieved under the 5MHz frequency bandwidth

Cyclic delay diversity (CDD) is a simple transmit diversity technique for an OFDM system using multiple transmit antennas. However, the performance of post-FFT estimation, i.e., integer frequency offset (lFO) is deteriorated by high frequency selectivity introduced by CDD. In this paper, the IFO estimation scheme is proposed for OFDM-based DRM+ system with CDD. Based on the pilot subset partitioning, the proposed IFO estimation scheme reduces the effect of performance degradation caused by frequency selectivity in OFDM systems with CDD . The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed IFO estimator is significantly improved when compared to that of the conventional IFO estimator.

In this paper, the channel change was continuously measured for 24 hours from July 5, 2017 on the coast near Deokjeok-do, Incheon. The underwater channel has various channel environment characteristics as the change in the time axis and the change in the frequency axis occurs in real time, and the underwater communication performance decreases due to the multipath fading and the Doppler effect. Therefore, in this study, we performed the OFDM system performance analysis in the underwater channel environment by applying the repetitive transmission diversity scheme in the time and frequency domain to improve the communication performance in the real-world underwater communication environment. Using the collected data, we compared the channel environment in the time and frequency domain and analyzed the BER performance according to the pilot spacing and the number of repetitive transmissions in the time and frequency axis.

DS-CDMA downlink distinguishes actual user by orthogonal spreading codes ,but its orthogonality may be lost by the multiple access interference(MAI) caused by the multipath channel. Therefore in this paper, we proposed the single-user receiver, which use linear channel equalizer to eliminate the interference due to multipath channel and to recover orthogonality and then use code-matched filter to detect transmitted data. Unlike existing research, which mainly assumed ideal channel information, we use pilot channel assisted methods that is a kind of transmission of a parallel reference method to estimate the channel coefficients. Especially we use guard symbols which are inserted periodically to estimate channel coefficients exactly without interference from user signal. The results show that we accepted an approximately ideal channel information and achieved excellent performance improvement using proposed receiver compared with the conventional receiver especially user populations are high.

In this paper, the phisical layer of 4.3008 Mcps wideband CDMA which is proposed as the standard of personal communication service system is introduced. It is designed to fit 5 MHz bandwidth by using $28{\times}2^n$ Hadamard code. 13 kbps CELP vocoder is chosen as the main one and 32 kbps ADPCM can be applied. In the reverse link, the burst pilot scheme is proposed and produces the increase of capacity compared with the continuous pilot method. In order to maintain the service quality when the signaling data is increased, the information data and signaling data are time-multiplexed and making use of signaling activity brings the increase of capacity. QPSK data and QPSK spreading, variable frame size, and code pair assignment for high data rate are accomplished and then information data is transmited up to 64 kbps. It is expected that the proposed techiniques here are used in the FPLMTS.

The pilot bit pattern of W-CDMA system is used for the channel estimation and frame synchronization confirmation. This paper proposes the binary sequences for the frame synchronization for wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) system. We present the circuit for the generation of ideal frame synchronization property using the binary sequences called frame synchronization word(FSW). W-CDMA system uses compressed mode where up to 7 slots per one 10 msec frame are not transmitted to make measurements from another frequency without a full dual receiver terminal. It is shown that the proposed frame synchronization words also maintain the optimal frame synchronization property in the compressed mode by using the complementary mapping relationship of preferred pair. And we discuss the realization circuit for the generation of frame synchronization words by using the concept of preferred pairs, complementary mapping relationship, and maximal length sequence.

In OFDM-based very high-speed communication systems, FFT/IFFT processor should have several properties of low-area and low-power consumption as well as high throughput and low processing latency. Thus, radix-2k MDF (multipath delay feedback) architectures by adopting pipeline and parallel processing are suitable. In MDF architecture, the feedback memory which increases in proportion to the input signal word-length has a large area and power consumption. This paper presents a feedback memory size reduction method of radix-22 MDF IFFT processor for OFDM applications. The proposed method focuses on reducing the feedback memory size in the first two stages of MDF architectures since the first two stages occupy about 75% of the total feedback memory. In OFDM transmissions, IFFT input signals are composed of modulated data and pilot, null signals. In order to reduce the IFFT input word-length, the integer mapping which generates mapped data composed of two signed integer corresponding to modulated data and pilot/null signals is proposed. By simulation, it is shown that the proposed method has achieved a feedback memory reduction up to 39% compared to conventional approach.

The polyphase filter-based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (PF-OFDM) is proposed in [1]. It provides more efficient data transmission mechanism than the classical OFDM method. However, the channel estimation mechanism in the classical OFDM system such as the cyclic prefix can not be applied straightforwardly, since the received signal contains unpredictable terms. Therefore, the PF-OFDM system requires a complicated channel estimation scheme when it works on the multipath fading communication channel. In this paper, we proposed a pilot-symbol aided channel estimation algorithm suitable for the PF-OFDM system which efficiently deals with the unpredictable terms and verified its performance through a series of computer simulations.
