In this paper, we propose a receive diversity method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with cochannel interference. In the method, combining is done in the frequency domain by using the subcarrier based maximum ratio combining (MRC) method. For MRC, we exploit the power of cochannel interference as well as the power of channel noise. The accuracy of the power estimate of interference plus noise is enhanced by averaging the initial estimates over the correlated subchannels where the coherency between the subchannel gains comes from the limited delay spread of the channel. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields 2-3.5dB gain of signal to noise ratio compared to the conventional MRC method and less than 1 dB difference to the ideal case.

AT-DMB의 향상계층은 DQPSK 신호에 BPSK 또는 QPSK 신호를 더하여 변조하는 계층변조 방식을 사용하였기 때문에 수신기에서 채널 왜곡을 보상해야 신호의 복조가 가능하다. 다중 경로가 많은 지역에서는 주파수 선택적 페이딩이 발생하기 때문에 페이딩을 정확하게 추정하지 못하면 AT-DMB 향상계층 수신 성능이 저하되게 된다. 채널왜곡 추정을 위하여 AT-DMB 수신기에서는 채널추정 값을 스무딩하는 대역제한 필터를 사용한다. AT-DMB의 향상 계층 성능은 이 스무딩 필터의 대역폭에 따라 결정이 되며 적절한 필터 대역을 채널의 지연에 따라 설정해야 한다. 특히 SFN 환경에서는 수신 전력이 큰 둘 이상의 서로 다른 지연시간을 가지면서 수신이 되기 때문에 고정 대역폭 스무딩 필터를 사용한 채널왜곡 추정은 성능의 저하를 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 채널 지연 값을 추정하고 필터의 대역폭을 가변적으로 결정하는 방법에 대하여 설명하고 실험 결과를 보여준다.

This paper considers an application of distributed antenna system (DAS) to a system of intra-vehicle wireless energy transfer (WET). The intra-vehicle WET system has features such as limited mobility of energy receiver, static channel environment and short distance between transmitter and human body. Under these conditions, location of transmitter highly affects the amount of energy received by human body and the energy received by energy receiving devices. We compare centralized antenna system (CAS) and the DAS in intra-vehicle WET system by simulation. The results show the DAS has superior performance to the CAS.

In this paper, we propose a method to improve the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receivers by using oversampling the received signals. Demodulation of the received OFDM signals is to detect the amplitude and phase components of the subcarriers. From the oversampled OFDM signals, we can get redundant informations in frequency domain for the data, which are different in phase but the same in amplitude. By using these properties, we can obtain signal to noise ratio (SNR) gain by the oversampling ratio compared to the receivers which sampled with symbol rate. In this paper, we propose oversampled receivers whose oversampling ratio is expanded from integer to general rational number. Through computer simulations, we show the validity of the proposed methods by comparing the performance of the receivers with nonideal band-limiting filters.

Various relay technologies have been considered in wireless communication systems to enlarge the coverage and to enhance the system throughput. However, the coverage is limited by its modulation levels and additional time slot(s) is required for relaying. In the paper, by applying the hierarchical modulation to two-relay systems, two-hop relaying can be implemented instead of three hops, and both throughput and coverage can be enhanced. Throughout simulation analysis, the coverage extension is evaluated for different modulation levels and the total throughput is increased by up to two times.

본 논문에서는 다중경로 페이딩 환경에서의 하이브리드 (Hybrid) SC/MRC-L$_{c}$/L 다이버시티 수신기법과 콘볼루션 부호화 기법을 각각 이용할 때의 광대역 DS-CDMA 시스템의 성능을 구하였다. 다중경로 페이딩으로는 라이시안 페이딩 채널을 가정하였고, 다중사용자간섭의 영향을 함께 분석하였다. 그리고 하이브리드 SC/MRC-L$_{c}$/L 다이버시티 기법과 론볼루션 부호화 기법을 채용하여 성능개선정도를 비교, 분석하였다. 하이브리드 SC/MRC-L$_{c}$/L 수신에서는 각각의 반송파에 대하여 상관을 취하고 상관기 출력들 중에서 가장 큰 신호성분을 L$_{c}$개만큼 선택하여 최대비 합성하며, 콘볼루션 부호화는 다중경로 페이딩 및 다중접속간섭에 의하여 발생된 오류를 정정 및 검출한다. 분석 결과, 콘볼루션 부호화의 경우는 부호이득과 전력제한 시스템의 trade off를 고려한 부호화율의 선택과 하이브리드 SC/MRC-L$_{c}$/L 수신의 경우, 다이버시티 가지의 증가는 선택의 폭이 커져 성능개선은 이루어지지만 가지의 배수가 동일할 경우 가지의 수가 적은 것이 시스템의 복잡성과 경제적인 면에서 효율적임을 알 수 있었다

The emergency alert broadcast service based on cellular communications is defined as CBS. However, the CBS just supports a limited text message, which might be unavailable to foreigners, who are unfamiliar with local characters. The CBS protocol relies on a broadcast mechanism. Such a broadcast technology exhibits that the number of outage users significantly increases under poor channel conditions. In this paper, we present a supplementary service technology for 5G CBS, which considerably enhances the accessibility of foreigners and illiterate persons, and the receiver performance. For the enhanced receiver performance, the proposed supplementary service approach effectively exploits the device-based geo-targeting capability that the 5G CBS can afford to offer.

Recently, one of the research topics is wireless Ad-Hoc network minimizing power consumption because of limited power. We propose optimal power allocation scheme of each transmit node and derive performance analysis of system that recently designed Double opportunistic relay system which fixed branch receiver to use more than efficient power consumption. Optimal power location scheme is shown that outage probability has always better performance than equal power allocation. Furthermore, we are known that outage probability is minimized by increasing average transmit relays to obtain the diversity gain when average channel power gain is less.

In this paper, we study the performance of eigencanceller which use a eigenvector and eigenvalue in order to update a weighter vector. Eigencanceller can suppress directional interferences and noise effectively while maintaining specified beam pattern constraints. The constraints and optimal weight vector of eigencanceller vary by using interference and noise or desired signal, interference signal and noise as array input signal. From the analysis results in the steady state, We show that weight vectors in each case are simplified the form of projection equation that belongs to desired subspace orthogonal to interference subspace and eigencanceller has the better performance than RLS method through mathematical analysis and simulation.

In one of the most impacting schemes proposed to address the TCP throughput problem over network coding, the network coding layer sends an acknowledgement if an innovative linear combination is received, even when a new packet is not decoded. Although this scheme is very effective, its implementation requires a limit on the coding window size. This limitation causes low TCP throughput in the presence of packet reordering. We argue that a TCP variant detecting a packet loss relying only on timers is effective in dealing with the packet reordering problem in network coding environments as well. Also we propose a new network coding layer to support such a TCP variant. Simulation results for a 2-path environment show that our proposed scheme improves TCP throughput by 19%.
