Recently, a variety of methods for the performance improvement of ultra-high speed wideband wireless transmission systems have been suggested. This paper proposes a space-frequency (SF) block coded single side band (SSB) single carrier (SC)-frequency division multiple access (FDMA) transmission system. In the proposed SSB SC-FDMA system, SF block code is implemented with the complex conjugates, which are formed from discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spreading of pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) signals. As a result, transmit diversity gain can be obtained in the proposed SF block coded SSB SC-FDMA system without any significant increase of the system computational complexity. The simulation result shows that the signal-to-noise power ratio (SNR) performance of the proposed SF block coded SSB SC-FDMA system is approximately 4 dB better than the SNR performance of the conventional SSB SC-FDMA system with single transmit antenna at a symbol error rate (SER) of $10^{-2}$.

In this paper, we have evaluated and analyzed OTFS(Orthogonal Time Frequency Space) modulation and OTFS-MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) system. OTFS modulation can concisely compensate delay-Doppler spreading effect by using 2D(2-Dimension) iDFT (inverse Discrete Fourier Transform) and DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) operation. It enables OTFS system to transmit high-speed data. Especially, OTFS-MIMO system can transmit all data streams without performance degradation on high Doppler frequency channel. As simulation results, we have confirmed that $1{\times}1$ OTFS system's achievable rate is a similar to each stream of $2{\times}2$ OTFS-MIMO system. That is, we have also confirmed that $2{\times}2$ MIMO system can completely achieve double achievable rate in comparison with OTFS system on high Doppler frequency channel.

SC-FDMA system uses DFT-spreading method for reducing the PAPR of OFDM signal, which improves the power efficiency. Block type pilot is used in SC-FDMA system. However, there are ICI due to the inevitable phase noise and frequency offset that can be generated from the Doppler frequency and inaccuracy between the transceiver oscillators. This ICI definitely degrades the BER performance. To overcome this problem and estimate the channel efficiently, we like to propose ICI compensation algorithm for the SC-FDMA system with comb type pilot. SLM method is additionally included for the PAPR reduction when pilot is assigned in comb type. Finally, it is confirmed that the ICI due to the phase noise and frequency offset is efficiently compensated by the suggested algorithm.

This paper addresses relationships between diversity techniques and channel coding rates for OFDM and SC-FDE systems. In OFDM systems it is important to select proper channel coding rates according to multi-path channel profiles and low channel coding rates are required with cyclic delay diversity compared to the case of space time coding. On the other hand, it is not necessary to use low channel coding rates for SC-FDE systems where DFT spreading is applied to OFDM and relatively high channel coding rates can be used regardless of diversity techniques.

In this paper, we propose a new turbo-coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission scheme that can improve greatly the performance by making all the turbo-coded symbols have the same reliability for OFDM transmission over a frequency selective fading channel. The same reliability, that is, the same fading can be accomplished through multiplexing of turbo-coded symbols using distinct orthogonal codes and spreading over the whole effective subcarriers (hereafter, called as the orthogonal code multiplexing (OCM)). As for the orthogonal code selection, we choose the set of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) basis sequences, since the code set holds the orthogonality irrespective of the length and also has the equal energy property. We perform computer simulations using the Log-maximum-a-posteriori (Log-MAP) algorithm for iterative decoding in order to assess the performance of the proposed transmission scheme.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) suffers from spectral nulls of frequency-selective fading channels. Linear precoded (LP-) OFDM is an effective method that guarantees symbol detectability by spreading the frequency-domain symbols over the whole spectrum. This paper proposes a computationally efficient and low-cost implementation for discrete Hartley transform (DHT) precoded OFDM systems. Compared to conventional DHT-OFDM systems, at the transmitter, both the DHT and the inverse discrete Fourier transform are replaced by a one-level butterfly structure that involves only one addition per symbol to generate the time-domain DHT-OFDM signal. At the receiver, only the DHT is required to recover the distorted signal with a single-tap equalizer in contrast to both the DHT and the DFT in the conventional DHT-OFDM. Theoretical analysis of DHT-OFDM with linear equalizers is presented and confirmed by numerical simulation. It is shown that the proposed DHT-OFDM system achieves similar performance when compared to other LP-OFDMs but exhibits a lower implementation complexity and peak-to-average power ratio.
