Space-time coding was designed for an efficient transmit diversity technique to improve performance of wireless communication. For the transmit diversity using space-time coding, the receiver requires to estimate channel parameters corresponding to each transmit antennas. In this paper, we propose an efficient channel estimation scheme based on trigonometric polynomial approximation in OFDM systems with transmit diversity using space-time coding. The proposed scheme is more efficient than the conventional scheme in terms of the computational complexity. For QAM modulation, when the size of FFH is 128, the conventional scheme with significant tap caching of 7 requires 9852 complex multiplications for TU, HT and BU channels. But the proposed scheme requires 2560, 7680 and 3584 complex multiplications for TU, HT and BU channels, respectively. Especially, for channels with smaller Doppler frequency and delay spreads, the proposed scheme has the improved BER performance and complexity. In addition, we evaluate the performance of maximum delay spread estimation in unknown channel. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated by computer simulation in various multi-path fading environments.

In this paper, we simulate and evaluate the performance of MIMO systems adopting MMSE-OSUC receiver algorithm under Rayleigh fading channel environment. In the simulation, BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM modulation is used with frame length of 100 symbols. First, the concept of MIMO is introduced by the analytical basis of the channel capacity of MIMO system. From the performance analysis results, the channel capacity is identified by the function of channel and it is affected by the channel characteristic. Next, based on this approach, the algorithm for performance evaluation over MIMO channel was analyzed. From the performance analysis results, it is found that MMSE-OSUC receiver algorithm generally outperform conventional ZF-OUSC receiver algorithm in performance but the performance difference between the two algorithms is reduced as modulation scheme with larger constellation point is used.

In this paper, a new audio reproduction system was developed in which the cross-talk signals would be reasonably cancelled at an arbitrary listener position. To adaptively remove the cross-talk signals according to the listener's position, a method of tracking the listener position was employed. This was achieved using the two microphones, where the listener direction was estimated using the time-delay between the two signals from the two microphones, respectively. Moreover, room reverberation effects were taken into consideration where linear prediction analysis was involved. To remove the cross-talk signals at the left-and right-ears, the paths between the sources and the ears were represented using the KEMAR head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) which were measured from the artificial dummy head. To evaluate the usefulness of the proposed listener tracking system, the performance of cross-talk cancellation was evaluated at the estimated listener positions. The performance was evaluated in terms of the channel separation ration (CSR), a -10 dB of CSR was experimentally achieved although the listener positions were more or less deviated. A real-time system was implemented using a floating-point digital signal processor (DSP). It was confirmed that the average errors of the listener direction was 5 degree and the subjects indicated that 80 % of the stimuli was perceived as the correct directions.

This paper discusses the development of a acoustic vector channel simulator for the performance analysis of a acoustic digital communication system. The channel simulator consists of transmission module, acoustic channel model, receiver, beamformer, and adaptive equalizer. QPSK source signal is generated by the parameters specified by a user and transmitted. The transmitted signal generate multipath signals which have a different delay, amplitude, and dopper Sequency. The multipath signals with the acoustic noises is the received signal. We can analysis the communication system performance according to the antenna structure, beamforming algorithm, and equalization algorithm.

This paper presents our performance evaluation after the way of minimizing waiting times between channel switching for eMBMS(evolved Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Services) technique in LTE-Advanced systems. Existing composition of MBMS using IGMP(Internet Group Management Protocol) transfers the data with Multicast from BM-SC(Broadcast Multicast Service Center) to eNB(evolevd Node B) and with Broadcast from eNB to UE(User Equipment). Therefore, in case of channel switching, IGMP Join report should be transferred to BM-SC and then wait user's contents to be retransferred from eNB. To achieve this, Subscriber Channel technique of priorities is used for minimizing waiting times between channel switching as UE broadcasts favorite channels in advance.

최근 반도체 칩의 트랜지스터 집적화 기술이 발달됨에 따라 dynamic random access memory(DRAM)의 memory cell 영역을 작게 만들어야 하는 문제가 제기되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 대체 기술이 끊임없이 연구되고 있는 가운데 하나의 트랜지스터와 하나의 캐패시터로 구성된 기존의 DRAM에서 캐패시터가 없이 하나의 트랜지스터만으로 이루어진 1T-DRAM 소자의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이는 기존 DRAM의 구조에 비해 캐패시터가 필요하지 않아 복잡한 공정이 줄어들어 소자 제작이 용이하며, 더 높은 집적도를 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 일반적인 planar 타입의 1T-DRAM의 경우 소스 및 드레인과 기판과의 접합면에서 누설 전류가 큰 특징을 가지며 소자의 집적화에 따른 단 채널 효과가 발생하게 되는데, 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 유효 채널 길이를 늘려 단 채널 효과에 의한 영향을 감소시키고, 소스 및 드레인과 기판과의 접합면을 줄여 누설 전류를 줄일 수 있는 recessed 채널 타입의 1T-DRAM을 제작하였다. 1T-DRAM의 메모리 구동방법에는 여러 가지가 있는데 본 연구에서는 impact ionization (II)을 이용한 방법과 gate induced drain leakage (GIDL)을 이용한 방법을 사용하여 1T-DRAM의 채널구조에 따라 어떠한 구동방법이 더 적합한지 평가하였고, 그 결과 recessed 채널 1T-DRAM의 동작은 II 에 의한 측정 방법이 더 적합한 것으로 보여졌다.

An ultra-wideband signal is characterized by a radiated spectrum with wide bandwidth around a relatively low center frequency. In this paper, the bit error rate (BER), packet error rate (PER), and data throughput performance for an ultra-wideband system with M-ary correlation receiver are analyze in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and co-channel interference channel. To evaluate the performance of UWB system, a set of UWB communication waveform as pulse position modulated (PPM) signals consisting of more than one UWB pulse is used. The M-ary PPM signals are defined to be equally correlated in order to simplify the system performance analysis. The analysis for system performance shows that the wireless channel error significantly degrades throughput performance and can be effectively increased by hybrid ARQ scheme. Also, an attempt for comparing the data throughput of ultra-wideband system on different performance improvement schemes and parameters has been made. From the performance evaluation process, it is shown that the effects of wireless channel and hybrid ARQ scheme for ultra wideband M-ary PPM system can be evaluated by means of a suitable combination of the PER, throughput vs. signal-to-noise power ratio per bit.

This paper studies the performance of STTC with minimum Hamming distance (MHD) mapping in order to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance. Unfortunately, the MHD mapping used in trellis coded modulation (TCM) or multiple trellis coded modulation (MTCM) cannot be directly applied to STTC because the trellis structure of STTC is generally different from that of TCM or MTCM. Therefore, we need a simple modification to apply the MHD mapping concept in STTC. The core of the modification assigns information bits with a Hamming distance in proportion to the sum of the Euclidean distance to trellis branch of STTC. To the best knowledge, this combination has not been considered yet. The BER performance is examined with simulations and the performance of MHD mapping is compared to that of well known natural mapping and Gray mapping on both fast Rayleigh as well as fast Rician fading channels. It is shown that the performance of MHD mapping is much better than that of natural mapping or Gray mapping over fast Rician fading channels, especially.
