This paper describes the development of the telemetry link system for the high data rate transmission in high speed rocket application. In consideration of bandwidth efficiency, frequency selective fading and doppler frequency offset, we used DQPSK instead of PCM/FM which has been the primary modulation format in aeronautical telemetry. Also we used the spatial diversity with multiple receiving antennas to mitigate multipath interference which is the dominant channel impairment and the Turbo Product Code for Forward Error Correction to improve bit error rate performance.

A synchronization method is presented for IEEE 802.11a wireless OFDM system. First the coarse symbol synchronization is achieved by measuring the moving power average of the received envelope signal. The detection probabilities and optimum thresholds for the symbol synchronization are derived. By measuring the correlation between the short training signal and received envelope signal, fine symbol synchronization can be acquired. And the frequency synchronization is achieved using long training signal. A symbol synchronization error causes a phase rotation of the constellation. After the compensation for fading channel, the rotation due to the symbol timing error can be corrected. With this method, synchronization can be well achieved over frequency selective channels.

Code division multiple access (CDMA) is one of the promising medium access control scheme for underwater acoustic sensor networks due to its beneficial features such as robustness against frequency-selective fading and high frequency-reuse efficiency. In this paper, we design a closed-loop power control scheme for the underwater CDMA, to adapt time-varying acoustic channel. In the proposed scheme, sink node sends to sensor nodes the associated path loss which is acquired by uplink-channel analysis based on received packets from the sensor nodes. Then, sensor nodes adjust their transmission power in an adaptive manner to time-varying underwater acoustic channel, according to the informations sent by the sink node.

In this paper, as one of countermeasure techniques for a frequency selective fading, a digital slope equalizer(DSE) for 64-QAM digital radio relay system is analyzed in terms of principle, channel modeling, and digital implementation. Also computer simulations have been performed for DSE with a complex 13-tap adaptive time domain equalizer chip. It is shown that about 4.5 dB improvement in system signature can be obtained at the channel edge, and a variety of simulated results are reviewed in view of DSE modeling limit, operating frequency, control coefficient, signal constellation, and system signature. Finally, the functions of DSE chip confirmed up to 61 MHz clock operation are illustrated.

In this paper, we evaluated Ultra Wideband MC-CDMA system which is the combination of DS-CDMA and OFDM systems, which have been drafting in current standardization for IEEE802.15.3a. Too many Rake Fingers are demanded in the DS-CDMA system to detect multi-path signals, which results in high system complexity. OFDM system fails to qualify for FCC certification unless frequency hopping is off. MC-CDMA has lower complexity compared to DS-CDMA and shows good performance against frequency selective fading. In addition, for a wide-band communication, less radio power per spectrum is allowed in the MC-CDMA system than in an OFDM system. The MC-CDMA system is analyzed by a numerical formula and compared with DS-CDMA and OFDM by a computer simulation.

In the case of the requirement of high speed transmission, OFDM is a powerful technique employed in communications systems suffering from frequency selective fading. In this paper, we apply an optimal adaptive bitloading algorithm technique. The BER performance of the fixed-rate SISO and adaptive SISO is simulated. Specially, we can decompose the MIMO channel into the SISO channel by making use of the singular value decomposition(SVD) assuming channel knowledge in a multipath environment. As a results of simulation, we confirmed that the BER enhancement of MIMO-OFDM system with the bitloadins algorithm was superior to the SISO-OFDM system.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been investigated as promising technology for future broadband communication. In this paper, we propose a power allocation algorithm for a frequency selective fading channel. However, many investigated algorithms that perform high computation overhead are not appropriate for sensor network systems due to hardware limitations. The proposed algorithm significantly reduces computational overhead and satisfies the power budget. Throughput of the algorithm is comparable to the optimum solution. Simulation results support the claim stated.

OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation using the orthogonal subcarriers reduces the delay spread by increasing robustness to multipath fading and can use overlapped bandwidth due to orthogonality on frequency domain. Thus data rate and spectral efficiency are increased. Because of these reason, OFDM is used for high speed data transmission for multimedia transmission as HSDPA, WiBro, WLAN. However OFDM also has drawbacks that have the high PAPR (Peak to Average Power Ratio). This high PAPR takes place because of parallel processing a number of data at once using a FFT processor. By high PAPR, amplifier doesn't act in dynamic range, so that BER performance is worse. In this paper, we reduce the PAPR using SLM(Selective Mapping). SLM doesn't effect on BER performance, but should transmit the side information for demodulation [2]. Also PAPR is higher as the number of FFT processor is larger. Thus SLM has high complexity. In this paper, we analyze the performance of SLM using scaling for no side information.

This thesis is about power line communication(PLC) over the low voltage grid. The main advantage with power line communication is the use of an existing infrastructure. The PLC channel can be modeled as having multi-path propagation with frequency-selective fading, typical power lines exhibit signal attenuation increasing with length and frequency. OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a modulation technique where multiple low data rate carriers are combined by a transmitter to form a composite high data rate transmission. To implement the multiple carrier scheme using a bank of parallel modulators would not be very efficient in analog hardware. Each carrier in an OFDM is a sinusoid with a frequency that is an integer multiple of a base or fundamental sinusoid frequency. Therefore, each carrier is a like a Fourier series component of the composite signal. In fact, it will be shown later that an OFDM signal is created in the frequency domain, and then transformed into the time domain via the Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT).
