Time-reversal (TR) precoding focuses the energy of the effective channel in time and improves receive performance of a single tap receiver. Frequency-domain equal-gain-combining (FD-EGC) TR scheme, which works in linear block precoding fashion, has better temporal focusing performance than the traditional TR. Also, the FD-EGC improves receive performance of minimum mean square error receiver with distributed antenna systems (DAS). The detailed receive performance of the FD-EGC was analyzed in our previous work. In this paper, we focused on capacity analysis of the FD-EGC in DAS. We derived a scaling law which shows how the use of multiple antenna can increase the capacity of the FD-EGC precoding compared with that of no precoding. In addition, we analyze the secrecy rate of the FD-EGC which shows how high-rate messages can be transmitted towards an intended user without being decoded by the other users from the view point of information theoretic security.

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.

The performance of dual diversity receivers operating over correlated Ricean fading channels is analyzed. Using a previously derived rapidly converging infinite series representation for the bivariate Ricean probability density function, analytical expressions for the statistics of dual-branch selection combining, maximal-ratio combining, and equal-gain combining output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are derived. These expressions are employed to obtain novel analytical formulae for the average output SNR, amount of fading, average bit error probability, and outage probability. The proposed mathematical analysis is used to study various novel performance evaluation results with parameters of interest the fading severity, average input SNRs, and the correlation coefficient. The series convergence rate is also examined verifying the fast convergence of the analytical expressions. The accuracy of most of the theoretical performance evaluation results are validated by means of computer simulations.

본 논문에서는 다중 경로 페이딩에 의한 성능의 손실을 보상하기 위하여 간단한 equal gain combining diversity를 갖는 802.11a 무선 LAN용 OFDM 시스템의 HER 성능을 다중경로 환경 하에서 분석하였다. 모의 실험 결과에 따르면, 다중경로채널에서 전송 파워를 살펴보면, 2branch equal gain combining diversity를 사용한 무선 LAN용 OFDM시스템이 diversity를 사용하지 않는 OFDM 시스템보다 BER 10/sup -3/에서 3㏈ 정도의 이득을 줄 수 있었다. Branch 수를 3개를 사용한 경우에는 BER 10/sup -3/에서 branch 2개를 사용한 경우보다 약 2㏈정도 이득을 줄 수 있었다.

Reception performance in land mobile satellite is decreased by obstacle. It is compensated with Diversity technique. In this paper, performances are analyzed with two type of method Equal Gain Combining(EGC) and Selcetive Combining(SC). To analyze, measured data using On-The-Move(OTM) terminal are used. In conclusion, SC method can increase performance. However, EGC method can improve perforamance only in rural region, but performance are decreased in urban region.

This paper proposes a hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithm for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) OFDM system. As MIMO OFDM systems are multiple transmitter and receiver antenna systems, apart from SISO(Single Input Single Output) system, it is possible to use several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid symbol offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, simulate and show the performances in MIMO system environments. The proposed equal gain combining correlation algorithm has better performance 1.8 times in searching the ideal symbol offset rather than the conventional early symbol offset algorithm in severe ISI channel.

As to power combining system, it is very important to achieve a high combining efficiency in order to minimize theamount of prime power needed and hence the cooling requirements, all of which translate into reduced cost. The combining efficiency is degraded in practice by variation in the amplitude and phase of the signals to be combined. In this paper, the new power combining newtork is proposed and realized which has the automatic gain and phase control system. This control system makes amplituede and phase variation of its all path equal. When the amplitude and phase variations are within 0~5dB and .+-.50.deg., the results show that high combining efficiency is maintained.

In this paper, we propose simple combining schemes for sensing ATSC digital television signals with spectral correlation density (SCD). The detection algorithms exploiting the cyclostationarity exhibited by the pilot of ATSC digital television signals usually use the SCD value at a given particular frequency. However, we found that non-zero SCDs are found to be distributed over a certain range of frequencies in multipath fading environment. To utilize a set of non-zero SCD values computed in the vicinity of the pilot location, we formulate a class of combining methods in analogy with the maximal ratio combining, the square law combining and the equal gain combining. We show that the proposed simple combining schemes improve the detection performance by 0.5~1.0dB under multipath fading environments.
