Uplink multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) with equal gain combining (EGC) over Nakagami fading channels is considered. An improved expression which is a feasible alternative for the bit error rate (BER) performance evaluation of MC-CDMA signals is proposed. Simulated annealing algorithm is employed to obtain the optimum value of the coefficients belonging to the proposed expression. Numerical examples show that the performance curves computed by the improved expression are in good agreement with the results obtained by the exact expression. Thus, the proposed expression can improve the accuracy of BER performance evaluation that has been realized by the approximate expression.

This paper describes a design of pipelined adaptive decision-feedback equalizer (PADFE) for high bit-rate wireless digital communication systems. To enhance the throughput rate of ADFE, two pipeline stages are inserted into the critical path of ADFE by using delayed least-mean-square (DLMS) algorithm. Redundant binary (RB) arithmetic is applied to all the data processing of ADFE including filter laps and coefficient update blocks. When compared with conventional methods based on two's complement arithmetic, the proposed approach reduces arithmetic complexity, as well as results in a very simple complex-valued filter structure, thus suitable for VLSI implementation. The design parameters (filter tap, coefficient and internal bit-width, etc.) and equalization performance (bit error rate, convergence speed, etc.) are analyzed by algorithm-level simulation using COSSAP. The PADFE was designed using VHDL and Synopsys, and mapped into two ALTERA FLEX10k100 FPGAs.

Bit error rate (BER) monitoring is the ultimate goal of performance monitoring in all digital transmission systems as well as optical fiber transmission systems. To achieve this goal, optimization of the decision threshold must also be considered because BER is dependent on the level of decision threshold. In this paper, we analyze a pseudo-error counting scheme and propose an algorithm to achieve both BER monitoring and adaptive decision threshold optimization in optical fiber transmission systems. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, we conduct computer simulations in both Gaussian and non-Gaussian distribution cases. According to the simulation results, BER and the optimum decision threshold can be estimated with the errors of < 20% and < 10 mV, respectively, within 0.1-s processing time in > 40-Gb/s transmission systems.

In this paper, we design the robust H$_{\infty}$ controller for congestion control in ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) networks with the variation of other higher priority sources(e.g., constant bit rate, variable bit rate). Since ABR (available bit rate) sources share the bottleneck node with other higher priority sources, we design the controller which guarantees robustness against time delay and disturbance. The proposed robust H$_{\infty}$ controller with regional pole placements can minimize the variation of the queue size at the predefined desired level. And we also show its robustness through simulation for the ATM networks with time delay and disturbance.

Wavelet packet modulation (WPM) is a multicarrier modulation (MCM) technique that has emerged as a potential alternative to the widely used orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) method. Because WPM has overlapped symbols, equalization cannot rely on the use of the cyclic prefix (CP), which is used in OFDM. This study applies linear minimum mean-square error (MMSE) equalization in the time domain instead of in the frequency domain to achieve low computational complexity. With a modest equalizer filter length, the imperfection of MMSE equalization results in subcarrier attenuation and noise amplification, which are considered in the development of a bit-loading algorithm. Analytical expressions for the bit error rate (BER) performance are derived and validated using simulation results. A performance evaluation is carried out in different test scenarios as per Recommendation ITU-R M.1225. Numerical results show that WPM with equalization-aware bit loading outperforms OFDM with bit loading. Because previous comparisons between WPM and OFDM did not include bit loading, the results obtained provide additional evidence of the benefits of WPM over OFDM.

In this paper, based on the soft cancellation (SCAN) bit-flipping (SCAN-BF) algorithm, a generalized SCAN bit-flipping (GSCAN-BF-Ω) decoding algorithm is carried out, where Ω represents the number of bits flipped or corrected at the same time. GSCAN-BF-Ω algorithm corrects the prior information of the code bits and flips the prior information of the unreliable information bits simultaneously to improve the block error rate (BLER) performance. Then, a joint threshold scheme for the GSCAN-BF-2 decoding algorithm is proposed to reduce the average decoding complexity by considering both the bit channel quality and the reliability of the coded bits. Simulation results show that the GSCAN-BF-Ω decoding algorithm reduces the average decoding latency while getting performance gains compared to the common multiple SCAN bit-flipping decoding algorithm. And the GSCAN-BF-2 decoding algorithm with the joint threshold reduces the average decoding latency further by approximately 50% with only a slight performance loss compared to the GSCAN-BF-2 decoding algorithm.

Video-On-Demand servers have to provide timely processing guarantees and reduce the storage and reduce the storage and bandwidth requirements for continuous media However, compression techniques used in Video-On-Demand servers make the bit rates of compressed video data significantly variable from frame to frame Consequently, most pervious Video-On-Demand servers which use constant bit rate retrieval to guarantee deterministic service under-utilize the system resources and restrict the number of clients. In this paper, I propose a buffer management scheme called CAP(Caching And Prefetching) for Video-On-Demand server using variable bit rate continuous media. By caching and prefetching the data CAP reduces the variation of the compressed data and increases the number of clients simultaneously served and maximizes the utilization of system resources. Results of trace-driven simulations show the effectiveness of the scheme.

In this paper, a new dynamic excitation modeling scheme is proposed. Based upon the proposed excitation modeling scheme, two variable bit rate homomorphic vocoders are designed, whose average bit rates are 3.8 Kbps and 4.4 Kbps. The performance of the proposed excitation modeling scheme is then evaluated through the subjective listening tests. In the tests, the performances of two speech coders designed in this paper ate compared with the one of 4.8 Kbps homomorphic vocoder designed by Chung and Schafer, in which conventional static excitation modeling scheme applied. The subjective listening tests show that proposed dynamic excitation modeling scheme improves synthesized speech quality while lowering the average bit rate of speech coders.

To reduce the bit-rate requirements imposed by a network or satisfy processing limitations imposed by a terminal, Conversion the temporal resolution of a video bit stream is a technique that may be used. This paper discusses the problem of reduced resolution transcoding of compressed video bit streams, and discussed the technique for temporal transcoding. To speed up this operation, a video transcoder usually reuses the coded motion vectors from the input video bit stream. In this paper we propose an enhanced motion re-estimation technique to maintain higher quality of coded frames. The performance of experimental results can be improved while maintaining low computational complexity for a reduced frame rate video transcoder.

In this paper, we analyze the relationship between energy per bit and the data rate with the variation of the system bandwidth. A existing power model is mathematical model to express power consumption of each device. In this paper, we have to investigate the system level energy model for the RF front-end of a wireless transceiver. Also, the effects of the signal bandwidth, PAR, date rate, modulation level, transmission distance, specific attenuation of frequency band, and the signal center frequency on the RF front-end energy consumption and system capacity are considered. Eventually, we analyze the relationship between energy per bit and the data rate with the variation of the system bandwidth so that we simulate the minimum energy per bit in the several Gbps data rate using Shannon capacity theory.
