Due to the advantage of communication coverage extension and removement of shadowing area, relay can be applied in various wireless communication systems. In this paper, we analyze performance of downlink with dual-hop communication systems which use a relay in railway environments. We adopted asymmetric communication system which use coherent modulation scheme in base station-relay link and differential modulation scheme in relay-destination link. The performance of communication system is analyzed using symbol error rate, and performance comparison with the systems which adopts fully coherent scheme is studied. We also investigate the performance of system depending on relay distance and energy allocation.

In this paper, a pilot emitting amplify-and-forward relay and its beamforming schemes, OBF (overall beamforming) and RBF (hop-by-hop beamforming), are proposed for two-hop relaying systems. The OBF performs beamforming with respect to a overall channel from a source node (SN) to a destination node (DN) through a relay node (RN), while the proposed RBF performs two independent beamformings: from the SN to the RN and from the RN to the DN. From our analytic and numerical results, it is shown that bit-error-rate (BER) performance of the proposed RBF is better than that of the OBF scheme since the RBF system can estimate channel more proper than the CBF system, which is verified by deriving and comparing the mean square errors of the channel estimation.

디지털 기술의 발달로 인해 세계 각국에서 지상파 DTV 방송망을 핵심인프라로 활용하기 위한 노력이 지속되고 있다. 하지만 국내 지상파 DTV 표준인 ATSC방식은 주파수 이용관점에서 효율적이지 못한 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위해 그 동안 동일채널 중계기술이 많이 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 동일채널간섭으로 인한 신호품질 저하, 긴 처리시간, 송출전력 제한 등의 제약조건으로 인해 실제 방송망에서는 동일채널 중계기술이 활용되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 DAB용 간섭제거 기반 동일채널 중계기를 ATSC 시스템에 적용하였다. 제안하는 동일채널 중계기는 타이밍 옵셋 보상을 위한 위상 전 왜곡기법, 파일럿 성분 추정 및 제거를 위한 직류 제거기, 송/수신신호 간의 상관도를 기반으로 궤환신호의 지연시간을 추정하는 기법이 적용되었으며, 전산 모의실험을 통해 그 성능을 확인하였다. 전산 모의실험을 통해 주 송신신호보다 간섭신호가 큰 환경에서 제안한 동일채널 중계기의 간섭제거 능력을 확인하였고, 이에 따라 동일채널 중계기의 송출능력을 개선하는 동시에 짧은 처리 지연시간 및 양호한 신호품질을 얻을 수 있었다.

Relay-assisted multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technique has become a promising candidate for next generation broadband wireless communications. In this paper, we propose maximum ratio combining (MRC) minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) equalization for single carrier-frequency domain equalizer (SC-FDE) in amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying networks. The performance of SC-FDE system can be improved considerably by achieving both the diversity gain and the MMSE equalization gain when the signals from source-destination (S->D) and source-relay-destination (S->R->D) are combined and equalized by means of the MMSE criteria. We find the weighting coefficients of MRC combining and the tap coefficients of MMSE equalizer for SC-FDE in AF relaying networks. Simulation results show that the proposed relay-based system considerably outperforms the conventional SC-FDE system.

This article is written to make a foundation for effective radio network engineering by enabling the accurate traffic assumption between Base Station (BTS : Base Station Transceiver Subsystem) md Repeater through the scientific and systematic analysis of mobile traffic dealt within CDMA Base Station. Among these, Repeater, having direct physical connection with BTS, simply does the remote relay function but the volume of the traffic flowed into the repeater is not accountable. The total BTS traffic is the sum of traffic dealt by the BTS and multiple Repeaters. In this article, we tried traffic analysis of this kind by adopting RTD (Round Trip Delay) which is specially designed to measure distribution of the distance between the Base Station and the Mobile station by differentiating the traffic dealt by BTS from traffic dealt by Repeaters. The fact that the connection between mobile station and BTS via Repeater (which is located remotely) yields far more delay than the direct connection between mobile station and BTS is the clue of this article. Based on this fact, Time Delay equipment was put at the receiving side of the Repeater to add certain amount of delay to the traffic to BTS and the result showed that the 99.78% of the traffic can be identified.

미국 PCS 대역 실내 간이 중계기에 사용될 수 있는 소형 안테나를 개발 제작하였다. 이동통신용 PCS 주파수는 CDMA에 비해 2배 정도 높기 때문에 건물 등 실내에서 통신하기에는 감쇠가 심하다. 따라서 건물 밖 신호를 받아서 건물의 특정부분으로 중계해주는 시스템이 필요하게 된다. 이 연구에서는 벽걸이 혹은 사진액자 형태의 중계기에 사용될 수 있는 소형이면서도 대역특성이 넓은 패치 안테나를 제작하였다. A4 크기의 중계기에 적용되는 소형 패치 안테나를 2개 배열하여 측정한 결과 S11의 -10㏈ 대역폭은 1.7 - 2.1㎓로 400㎒ 의 광대역이고, 이득 6 - 8.5㏈i 및 -l8㏈의 F/B 비 특성을 보였다.

In this paper, We analysis of effective coverage extension for Tri-sector cellular systems using Multi-hop Relay based on IEEE802.16j system. In the proposed international standard of IEEE 802.16j MMR (Mobile Multi-hop Relay) use of the omni-directional antenna, 3-sector and 6-sector antenna is considered to Base Station and Relay Station. Omni-directional antenna service can offer as all directions but a throughput decreases due to the signal interference of near Relay Stations. In the directional antenna, cause of an interference with the base station which it arranges an antenna so that a beam can have the direct and does with neighbor Base Station and Relay Station can be reduced interference, therefore the effective throughput is higher than the omni-directional antenna system. But, In case of Base Station and Relay Station use the directional antenna, the efficiency which the directional antenna has the Co-channel interference due to in the different cell by the channel reuse is decreased. In this study, we propose the structure of arranging the Base Station and Relay Station having the directional antenna in the NBTC, WBTC antenna in a multi-tier. It compared and analyzed with the mode that the multi-hop Relay Station has the omni-directional antenna, Relay Station are used the NBTC antenna and the WBTC antenna system also, We analyze a relation between the performance degradation and the cell coverage extension which it follows because the number of hop in the multi-hop Relay Station.

In this paper, we study a novel wireless interference cancellation system(ICS) repeater based on OFDM system with phase noise analysis and performance evaluation. Recently, there were many researches about wireless repeater. The previous study is just considering the feedback channel cancellation algorithm. But, in wireless repeater system, the phase noise effect can exist at up and down converter of wireless repeater. In wireless repeater system, if there are phase noise effects, the performance of system will get worse. So, the phase noise compensator is needed in wireless repeater. Therefore, we propose adaptive phase noise compensator based on OFDM system in order to effectively cancel phase noise. In order to cancel interference, we adapt adaptive phase noise compensator in wireless repeater system. The adaptive phase noise compensator compensates phase noise effect. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze phase noise of wireless repeater based on OFDM system. In this paper, when phase noise power is -15 dBc and phase noise cutoff frequency is 100 kHz at 4QAM, the BER performance of propose algorithm is better about 4 dB than with adaptive equalizer and without phase noise compensator at $10^{-4}$.
