The performance of trellis coded 8-PSK systems over m-distributed fading channel is analyzed. To compensate the performance degradation due to the fading in mobile communication channels, the trellis code which can obtain the coding gain without bandwidth expansion is used. Using the Chernoff bound and generating function techniques for the trellis coded 8-PSK systems with 4-state and 8-state, the upper bound of the bit error probability is derived. The trellis code of 8-state is better than that of 4-state in the capability of error correction. The coded performance is much better under severe fading environment.

Transmit signal of Enhancement Layer in AT-DMB system is received by Coherent Detection, but in Base Layer of AT-DMB, a differential modulation and demodulation is adopted, same as the T-DMB. Especially for the coherent dectection of enhancement layer in AT-DMB system, a channel estimation must be employed. In this paper, I will show that the BER performance of Base-Layer in AT-DMB system will be improved by using the channel estimation information. The suggested method is focusing the constallations after Equalizaing to the nearlest ${\pi}$/4-shift DQPSK constallation points. Simulation results show that for the non-coding environment, the BER performance of AWGN channel, about 2-dB gain can be achieved at $10^{-4}BER$.

The purpose of this paper is to propose an improvement method of BER for coded 16QAM over Rayleigh fading channel. To overcome the BER degradation due to the fading under mobile communication, we apply trellis coded modulation technique which is efficient to get a coding gain without the expansion of bandwidth. Especially, to minimize the burst error which are the main factor of the BER degradation for mobile communication systems, we apply interleaving/deinterleaving method to the studying system. Also we apply asymmetric signal mapping methods to this TCM scheme. From the computer simulation, BER performance of asymmetric case has achieved about 1 dB improvement of about $10^{-4}$, compared to the traditional symmetric case.

In this paper, we propose a cooperative communication scheme for high transmission efficiency and coverage extension under multipath fading environment of moving networks. The proposed scheme uses a Space-Time Block Code (STBC) for improvement of receiving performance by using virtual Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO) transmit diversity. It can also achieve faster transmission time than a conventional scheme by using virtual MIMO configurations. Simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme provides SNR improvement and has faster transmission time compared to the conventional scheme, since it can utilize the good properties of spatial diversity and coding gain by using virtual MIMO configuration. In this paper, we propose simulations of UWB communication system to show validity by using the MATLAB.

Accurate estimation of time-selective fading channel is a difficult problem in OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system. There are many channel estimation algorithms that are very weak in noisy channel. For solving this problem, we use EM (Expectation-Maximization) algorithm for iterative optimization of the data. We propose an EM-LPC algorithm to estimate the time-selective fading. The proposed algorithm improves of the BER performance compared to EM based channel estimation algorithm and reduces the iteration number of the EM loop. We simulated the uncoded system. If coded system use the EM-LPC algorithm, the performance are enhanced because of the coding gain. The EM-LPC algorithm is able to apply to another communication system, not only OFDM systems. The image processing of the medical instruments that the demand of accurate estimation can also use the proposed algorithm.

The pitch range of the human voice is variable, extending from chest register to falsetto. Although numerous studies have investigated after laryngeal mechanism description of registers, systematic and objective studies were lack. The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare head register with chest register of singers acoustically. Fifteen healthy tenor major students were selected. Fifteen healthy untrained adults were the control group for this study. Long term average(LTA) power spectrum using the Fast Fourier transform(FFT) algorithm and Linear predictive coding (LPC) filter response were made during /a/ sustained in both head(G4, 392Hz) md chest registers (C3, 131Hz). Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney test. In the LTA power spectrum, head register of singer has increased level(energy gain) in the frequency band of 2.2-3.4kHz(p<0.01), and 7.5-8.4kHz(p<0.01, p<0.05). Chest register of singer has increased level in the frequency band of 2.2-3.1kHz(p<0.01), 7.8-8.4kHz(p<0.05) and around 9.6kHz(p<0.01). LTA power spectrum reveals a peak of acoustic energy around 2500Hz known as the singer's formant and another peak of acoustic energy around 8000Hz in singer's voice.

This paper investigates the performance of an amplify-and-forward (AF) two-way relaying system with antenna correlation. The system consists of two multiple-antenna sources, which exchange information via the aid of a single-antenna relay. In particular, we derive the exact outage probability expression. Furthermore, we provide a simple, tight closed-form lower bound for the outage probability. Based on the lower bound, we obtain the closed-form asymptotic outage probability and the average symbol error rate expressions at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), which reveal the system's diversity order and coding gain with antenna correlation. To investigate the system's throughput performance with antenna correlation, we also derive a closed-form lower bound for the average sum-rate, which is quite tight from medium to high SNR regime. The analytical results readily enable us to obtain insight into the effect of antenna correlation on the system's performance. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to verify the analytical results.

In this paper, we propose the adaptive multibeamforming algorithm to remove the same subcarrier interference and multipath signals in the MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Out)-OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access)system allocated the same subcarrier partially in order to improve spectrum efficiency. In addition to removing the interference, we can get diversity gain and combat the detriment of the performance according to time delay by the proposed approach. BER performance improvement and combating the delay spread detrimental effects of the proposed approach is investigated through computer simulation by applying it to MIMO-OFDMA.

In this paper. for $\pi$/4 and $\pi$/8 PSK. we proposed to condition to obtain coding gain increasing states, by design encoder of analytical method with minimal complexity in limited bandwidth and power channels. In order to improve the bit error rate(BER), comparing Ungerboeck designed the TCM. we propose MTCM(Multiple trellis-coded modulation) with multiplicity(k＝2), by optimum encoder design. By design encoder of analytical method. the trellis encoder can be minimal complexity and the decoder be used Viterbi decoder(MLSE). When compared to the TCM and MTCM with AWGN channels. the condition of performance enhancement of the MTCM with multiplicity(k＝2) is the case of parallel transition in TCM systems. without alternating data transmission rate in bandwidth and power limited channels.

Multilevel coded modulation (MCM) with serial concatenated convolutional code (SCCC) is proposed and the performance is analyzed in this paper. Both high coding gain and bandwidth efficiency can be obtained if SCCC is adopted as a component code at the first level of MCM. Simulation results show that the performance of MCM with Ambroze's SCCC is saturated like that of MCM with PCCC. But MCM with Benedetto's SCCC shows no performance saturation and better performance than MCM with PCCC or Ambroze's SCCC. Thus MCM with Benedetto's SCCC may be a good choice for high quality system with limited bandwidth.
