In this paper, the BER performance of IEEE 802.11a OFDM WLAN system is obtained by simulation and it is shown that the proposed modified channel estimation algorithm improves the channel estimation performance of the system. The wireless channel used in channel simulation includes AWGN and delay spread channel implemented by TDL model. At first, the performance of OFDM WLAN system according to data rate and coding rate defined in standard is evaluated in AWGN channel. Then, imperfect channel estimation in indoor wireless channel is considered. After the performance of conventional channel estimation scheme using only two long training symbols is evaluated, and that of proposed modified channel estimation scheme using additional 8 short training symbol is compared with it. From the simulation results, it is shown that modified channel estimation scheme provides reduced channel estimation error and improves the channel estimation performance due to noise averaging effect with the same preamble format as defined in specification.

In this paper the system performance degradation resulting from nonlinear transmitter power amplifier which is essential to increase the efficiency is analyzed in a forward link CDMA system. The power amplifier is modeled by power series model which includes only odd-order terms. The effects of power amplifier's nonlinearity such as intersymbol interference, phase distortion on the RF system performance were visualized by examining the distorted time domain waveforms, signal vector constellation. And through the investigation of the power spectrum density of the transmitted signal, spectral regrowth or sideband regrowth which is result from amplitude distortion can be seen. All these characteristics result in BER performance degradation due to other user interferences and intersymbol interference. The analysis technique described here applies not only to power amplifier but also to any other nonlinear components such as mixers and switches. Also the effects of adjacent channel interference and supurious emission can be analysed between different systems.

In this paper, we described a received signal model in terms of the starting point of FFT window and derive a post-detection SINR for the receiver with MMSE filter and the corresponding filter coefficients in order to mitigate the effects of interferences caused by time and frequency selective fading channels and time difference of arrival (TDoA) in OFDMA-based Mesh Networks. In addition, we proposed an MMSE Bidirectional Successive Detection (BSD) technique which can suppress the effects of interferences among multi-nodes without any redundant FFT operations. It was shown by simulation that the proposed interference suppression technique has not an error floor at higher average SNR than 30dB in terms of 64QAM uncoded BER contrary to the conventional techniques.

We compare three predistortion methods to prevent signal distortion and spectral re-growth due to the high PAPR (peak-to-average ratio) of OFDM signal and the non-linearity of high-power amplifiers. The three predistortion methods are pth order inverse, indirect learning architecture and look up table. The pth order inverse and indirect learning architecture methods requires less memory and has a fast convergence because these methods use a polynomial model that has a small number of coefficients. Nevertheless the convergence is fast due to the small number of coefficients and the simple computation that excludes manipulation of complex numbers by separate compensation for the magnitude and phase. The look up table method is easy to implement due to simple computation but has the disadvantage that large memory is required. Computer simulation result reveals that indirect learning architecture shows the best performance though the gain is less than 1 dB at $BER\;=\;10^{-4}$ for 64-QAM. The three predistorters are adaptive to the amplifier aging and environmental changes, and can be selected to the requirements for implementation.

In this paper, an energy detection-based low power, low complexity IR-UWB receiver in multipath impulse radio channel is presented. The proposed receiver has a simple 1-bit sampler for energy detection. Also, multipath signal received from multipath impulse radio channel is amplified and envelope of the signal is detected. Then, energy detection technique using integrator by summing multipath signals in certain period is adopted to minimize the BER loss by simple energy detection. In particular, in acquisition of a sample signal, SNR is additionally improved using a digital sampler. Symbol decision using several sampled signals is performed and thus the process of symbol synchronization is significantly simplified. Also, it is effectively designed to be compatible with influences of multipath and timing error. In addition, the proposed receiver complexity is reduced using pulse decision window. The performance of the proposed receiver is simulated based on IEEE 802.15.4a channel model and the algorithms are implemented on FPGA.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a noncoherent OOK (On-Off Keying) UWB (Ultra Wide Band) system based on power detection with noise power calibration and noise power windowing for ubiquitous sensor network applications in typical indoor wireless channels. Utilizing noise power calibration and noise power windowing, the current noise information can be initially or adaptively provided to determine suitable detection threshold value for signal demodulation. Simulation results show that the noncoherent OOK UWB system using noise power calibration achieves good BER (Bit Error Rate) performance which is favorably comparable to that of the system using the ideal adaptive threshold, while maintaining simple receiver structure. However, despite the serious loss of the data transmission rate, the performance improvement by noise power windowing is not so remarkable. furthermore, these performance results are similarly maintained in BEE 802.15 Task Group 3a UWB indoor channel model, and it is also revealed that the BER performance can be significantly improved by increasing the pulse repetition rate.

This paper presents implementation possibilities of digital IoT doorlock systems via VLC(Visible Light Communication)'s color grid. The color grid-based VLC modulation scheme which are discussed in this paper utilize the straightness of light and abundant frequency resources which are the properties of the light. Performance results in this paper are compared to that of conventional modulations with Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) simulations. With respect to a channel model, the proposed modulation schemes select the nearest Line Of Sight (LOS) except Non Line Of Sight (NLOS). Experiments in this paper show error rates of received symbols by changing power dB at a distance of 3m between Tx and Rx in an indoor environment. Through performance results and experiments, this paper demonstrates superiority of the proposed color grid-based modulation schemes.

In a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), the wireless data transmission environment plays an important role in system performance. In the proposed mobility model moving distance of sensor nodes has a great influences on communication performance. Transmission/receiving distance (d), path loss (L), sensitivity, Bit Error Rate (BER), Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) are considerations when designing a wireless communication system. MANET is a form of network in which only wireless terminals communicate with each other independently and move without any assistance of an existing infrastructure network. This paper is research on the optimized power usage method which is study on the effect of the moving distance of mobile nodes on the overall energy efficiency of the system in WSN. The purpose of this study is to extend the life of the entire network by proposing the mobile distance of sensor nodes within the communication available range.

IEEE802.15.4a, which is started to realize the PHY layer including high precision ranging/positioning and low data rate communication functions, requires a simple and low power consumable transceiver architecture. To satisfy this requirements, the simple noncoherent on-off keying (OOK) UWB transceiver with the parallel energy window banks (PEWB) giving high precision signal processing interface is proposed. The flexibility of the proposed system in multipath fading channel environments is acquired with the pulse and bit repetition method. To analyze the bit error rate (BER) performance of this proposed system, a noise model in receiver is derived with commonly used random variable distribution, chi-square. BER of $10^{-5}$ under the line-of-sight (LOS) residential channel is achieved with the integration time of 32 ns and signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 15.3 dB. For the non-line-of-sight (NLOS) outdoor channel, the integration time of 72 ns and SNR of 16.2 dB are needed. The integrated energy to total received energy (IRR) for the best BER performance is about $86\%$.

Equalization of satellite communication using Complex-Bilinear Recurrent Neural Network(C-BLRNN) is proposed in this pater. Since the BLRNN is based on the bilinear polynomial and it has been more effectively used in modeling highly nonlinear systems with time-series characteristics than multi-layer perception type neural networks(MLPNN) , it can be applied to satellite equalizer. the proposed C-BLRNN based equalizer for M-PSK with a channel model is compared with Volterra filter Equalizer, DFE, and conventional Complex MLPNN Equlizer. The results show that the proposed C-BLRNN based equalizer gives very favorable results in both of MSE and BER criteria over other equalizers.
