본 논문에서는 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 전송방식과 DQPSK변조방식을 제안하고, 반송파에서 주파수 옵셋으로 인한 동기 오차의 발생이 수신시스템에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 성능 개선기법으로 부호기법을 적용하여 수신 성능의 개선정도를 분석하였다. 결과에 의하면, 부호기법을 사용함으로써 T$_{s}$ $\Delta$f=0.02일 때 약 2㏈의 BER 개선을 보였고, $\alpha$의 영향을 적게 받음을 알 수 있었고, T$_{s}$ $\Delta$f=0.05일 경우는 보호대역 비율$\alpha$가 증가함에 파라 5㏈이상의 BER 개선을 보이나 $\alpha$가 0.25이상에서는 여전히 요구되는 기준 BER를 만족하지 못함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 낮은 수신전력(10 ㏈)에서는 보호대역 비율의 변화보다는 주파수 옵셋량이 시스템 성능에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있고, 높은 수신전력에서는(20 ㏈) 주파수 옵셋량에 대해서는 강인한 성능을 보이지만 보호대역 비율의 증가에 따라 BER 특성이 열화 되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, an efficient frequency offset synchronization structure for OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is proposed. Conventional CORDIC(Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer) algorithm for frequency offset synchronization utilizes two CORDIC hardware i.e., one is vector mode for phase estimation, the other is rotation mode for compensation. But proposed structure utilizes one CORDIC hardware and divider. Through simulation, it is shown that hardware implementation complexity is reduced compared with conventional structures. The Verilog-HDL coding and front-end chip implementation results for the proposed structure show 22.1% gate count reduction comparison with those of the conventional structure.

The upper frequency of international EMC regulations is being expanded above 1 GHz. Radiated emissions above 1 GHz are different from those below 1 GHz that is existing upper regulation frequency, and which have lower field strength and sharper and tilted beam-width, relatively. In this paper, an effective evaluation method to be used above 1 GHz is studied using an offset parabola antenna system having a double-ridged horn antenna as a feed. First, simple model is proposed for calculating antenna factor and field uniformity of the parabola antenna system, and then real radiated emission and radiated susceptibility measurements are performed using a constant noise emitter and the suggested antenna system. The results show that the proposed antenna system has higher gain and power efficiency, and wider field uniformity relative to a conventional double-ridged horn antenna. Therefore, it is confirmed that the proposed system can be effectively used for EMC measurements above 1 GHz.

SC-FDMA system uses DFT-spreading method for reducing the PAPR of OFDM signal, which improves the power efficiency. Block type pilot is used in SC-FDMA system. However, there are ICI due to the inevitable phase noise and frequency offset that can be generated from the Doppler frequency and inaccuracy between the transceiver oscillators. This ICI definitely degrades the BER performance. To overcome this problem and estimate the channel efficiently, we like to propose ICI compensation algorithm for the SC-FDMA system with comb type pilot. SLM method is additionally included for the PAPR reduction when pilot is assigned in comb type. Finally, it is confirmed that the ICI due to the phase noise and frequency offset is efficiently compensated by the suggested algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a 16-QAM carrier recovery loop which is suitable for the implementation of Inmarsat M4 system receiver. Because the frequency offset of ${\pm}924\;Hz$ on signal bandwidth 33.6 kHz is recommended in Inmarsat M4 system specification, carrier recovery loop having stable operation in the channel environment with large relative frequency offset is required. the carrier recovery loop which adopts only PLL can't be stable in relatively large frequency offset environment. Therefore, we propose a carrier recovery loop which has stable operation in large relative frequency offset environment for Inmarsat M4 system. The proposed carrier recovery loop employed differential filter-based noncoherent UW detector which is robust to frequency offset, CP-AFC for initial frequency offset acquisition using UW signal, and 16-QAM DD-PLL for phase tracking using data signal to overcome large relative frequency offset and achieve stable carrier recovery performance. Simulation results show that the proposed carrier recovery loop has stable operation and satisfactory performance in large relative frequency offset environment for Inmarsat M4 system.

This paper models a symbol timing offset (STO) with respect to the guard period and the maximum access delay time for asynchronous multicarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) uplink systems over frequency-selective multipath fading channels. Analytical derivation shows that STO causes desired signal power degradation and generates self-interferences. This effect of the STO on the average bit error rate (BER) and the effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is evaluated. The approximated BER and the SNR loss caused by STO are then obtained as closed-form expressions. The tightness between the analytical result and the simulated one is verified for the different STOs and SNRs. Furthermore, the derived analytical results are verified via Monte Carlo simulations.

In this paper we analyze the effects of frequency offset, doppler spread, sampling and oscillator phase noise in mobile channels on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM)system, Since this kind of distortions cause subcarrier interference which can be seen as additional noise, performance of OFDM system is degraded. We show the limitation of maximum carrier frequency offset and doppler frequency to maintain designated SNR, and analyze characteristics of the performance of OFDM systems considering the oscillator phase noise.
