This paper describes a design of OFDM (Orthogoanl Frequency Division Multiplexing) based wireless LAN system receiver, defined in IEEE 802.11a standards. Because OFDM system uses several orthogonal sequence sets, it ran avoid selective fading of fast data transfer problem when it is used with error correction code. But if the receiver is not synchronized, the orthogonal of between sub-ralliers will be destroyed and the data interruption will be generated. So it makes error property get worse very murk. For improving the noise error, we use the relationship of phasor between sub-carriers and make system synchronization using one tab equalizer. The designed OFDM block is described by Verilog HDL for the efficient and small size hardware. And we preform the functional verification and evaluation using the vector of standards.

In this paper, MIMO system based on turbo equalization techniques which LDPC codes were outer code and space time trellis codes (STTC) were employed as an inner code are studied. LDPC decoder and STTC decoder are connected through the interleaving and de-interleaving that updates each other's information repeatedly. In conventional turbo equalization of MIMO system, BCJR decoder which decodes STTC coded bits required two-bit wise decoding processing. Therefore duo-binary turbo codes are optimal for MIMO system combined with STTC codes. However a LDPC decoder requires bit unit processing, because LDPC codes can't be applied to these system. Therefore this paper proposed turbo equalization for MIMO system based on LDPC codes combined with STTC codes. By the simulation results, we confirmed performance of proposed turbo equalization model was improved about 0.6dB than that of conventional LDPC codes.

This paper presents the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) estimation based on A-Preamble of IEEE 802.16m IMT-Advanced WiMax system with simulation results. The downlink signal of IEEE 802.16m has two kinds of A-Preambles: the PA-Preamble and the SA-Preamble. This paper proposes the effective method of estimating SNR and SINR with A-Preambles, and also shows that this method can recognize the ICI(Inter-Carrier-Interference) occurrence due to doppler frequency. With the recognition of ICI, the mobile station can save the power by operating 1-tap equalizer in usual cases, and activating ICI mitigation module only when it perceives the ICI occurrence.

The synchronization algorithm of IEEE 802.11a WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) has three consecutive processes, which use a short code training symbol, a long code training symbol and a pilot symbol respectively. But in using this synchronization processes, the actual embodiment has two problems. First, the synchronization process has the complex structure using a long code training symbol and a pilot symbol. Second, since the long training symbol is only compensated with the offset correction coefficient, it can not be trusted perfectly. If the equalizer coefficient is obtained in this unstable period, the system performance is degraded. In particular, the system performance becomes worst in case of the 54 Mbps transmission system using the maximum length of data. In this paper, the new algorithm is proposed which can resolve the embodiment complexity of synchronization processes and structural defect, and also it is confirmed by simulation.

In this paper, a new algorithm to design a time-domain equalizer (TEQ) for an xDSL system employing the discrete multitone (DMT) modulation is proposed. The proposed algorithm, derived by neglecting the terms whichdo not affect the performance of a DMT system in ARMA modeling, is shown to have similar performance tothe previous TEQ algorithms such as matrix inverse algorithm, fast algorithm, iterative algorithm, and inversepower method, even with the significantly lower computational complexity. In addition, since the proposedalgorithm requires only the received signal, the information on the channel impulse response or training sequenceis not needed. It is also shown that for the case where bridged tap is not included, the number of TEQ tapsrequired can be reduced to half(from 16 to 8) without affecting the overall performance. The performances of theproposed and previous TEQ algorithms are compared by applying them to ADSL environment.

In OFDMA system, multiple users transmit signal through the subcarriers assigned to the user. Capabilities of high data-rate transmission in OFDMA system come from the ability to compensate the ICI (Inter Carrier Interference) using a single-tap equalizer and to implement transmitter and receiver by employing high speed FFT circuitry. Issues of time and frequency synchronization in OFDM system is quite essential to preserve the orthogonality among subcarriers not to produce ICI. In this paper, we Int analyze the preamble used in 802.16 d/e and WiBro system. Then we propose an effective timing synchronization algorithm, which is more accurate than the conventional one in the sense of timing position, and integral frequency offset estimation scheme for the simultaneouse estimation of the fractional and integral frequency offset. Through the simulation utilizing the proposed synchronization algorithm and structure, we show that the performance degradation due to the adjacent channel interference can be mitigated for the than conventional ones.

This paper presents an adaptive beamforming algorithm for an MC-CDMA system with an adaptive array antenna. By employing an antenna array at the receiver of an MC-CDMA system, the performance of an MC-CDMA system, which is known to be effective for high data rate transmission due to its robustness to multipath fading and its simplicity for using a simple one-tap equalizer, is shown to be significantly improved. The proposed algorithm for adaptive beanforming in an MC-CDMA system is derived by (1) calculating the error signals between the pilot symbols of desired user and the received pilot signals in frequency domain, (2) transforming the frequency-domain error signals into time-domain error signals, (3) updating the filter coefficients of the adaptive beamformer in the direction of minimizing the MSE. Convergence behavior and performance improvement of the proposed approach are demonstrated through computer simulation by applying it to the conventional MC-CDMA system.

This paper deals with the design and manufacturing technique of EQM(Engineering Qualification Model) of input multiplexer(IMUX) for the Ku-band satellite transponder. Channel dropping method by circulator chain structure is adopted for demultiplexing each channel. External equalizers are attached behind channel filters fur reduction of group delay variation and amplitude variation simultaneously. Both channel filters and equalizers adopted dual-mode technique in design f3r mass and volume reduction. Channel filters are designed to have 8-pole elliptic response and equalizers to be of 2-pole reflection type. For good temperature stability characteristics, INVAR36 material is used for channel filters and external equalizers. Vibration test, Thermal Vacuum Test, and EMC test have been performed on input multiplexer and it is shown to be suitable for Ku-band satellite transponder.

In this paper, we analyze the channel characteristics of the long distance air-ground wideband common data link and we propose a mathematical method to analyze the effect of narrowband and wideband interference of air-ground channel on the received signal of wideband data link. In this paper, we analyze the reception performance according to the communication distance using the proposed performance analysis method, and found out that the communication distance is limited by the narrowband and wideband interference of ground reflection wave. As a result of the performance analysis of the method of controlling the receiving antenna upward, not only the narrow band but also the wideband interference is effectively reduced, so that the communication distance is increased even in the existing wideband data link not including the equalizer.
