This paper evaluates the BER performance of MC-DS-CDMA systems in frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, considering the carrier frequency offset and the nonlinear high power amplifier. In the uplink MC-DS-CDMA, the BER performance is better than in the downlink. This paper presents the required output back-off of the nonlinear amplifier and value of frequency offset for good BER performance.

This paper proposes a new polarization diversity scheme for OPFDM (Orthogonal Polarization and Frequency Division Multiplexing). OPFDM is an extension of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) in conjunction with polarization multiplexing in order to ensure the orthogonality amongst subcarriers. Since OPFDM uses two orthogonally polarized channels, it can easily employ the polarization diversity. In order to get the diversity gain effectively in a frequency selective fading channel, the proposed scheme combines the signals in subcarrier-by-subcarrier basis. The computer simulation results confirm that the proposed scheme is superior to conventional one in the two orthogonally polarized two-ray Rayleigh fading channels with cross-talk between the two channels.

In this paper, authors have been evaluated the Frame Error Rate (FER) performance of IEEE 802.11 a/g/p standard 5 GHz frequency band WLAN over Rayleigh and Rician distributed fading channels in presence of Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based transceiver is implemented by using real-time signal processing frameworks (IEEE 802.11 Blocks) in GNU Radio Companion (GRC) and Ettus USRP N200 is used to process the symbol over the wireless radio channel. The FER is calculated for each sub-carrier conventional modulation schemes used by OFDM such as BPSK, QPSK, 16, 64-QAM with different punctuated coding rates. More precise SNR is computed by modifying the SNR calculation process of YANS and NIST error rate model to estimate more accurate FER. Here, real-time signal constellations, OFDM signal spectrums etc. are also observed to find the effect of multipath propagation of signals through flat and frequency selective fading channels. To reduce the error rate due to the multipath fading effect and Doppler shifting, channel estimation (CE) and equalization techniques such as Least Square (LS) and training based adaptive Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm are applied in the receiver. The simulation work is practically verified at GRC by turning into a pair of Software Define Radio (SDR) as a simultaneous transceiver.

This study examines the channel capacity of a multiple antenna system based on OFDM(Othogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) when there are correlations among received signals in the frequency selective Rayleigh fading. As for a case that two transmitting and two receiving antennas are used, the channel capacity is derived as a function of correlation in a closed-form and the effect on channel capacity is analyzed when the mean value of the of received signal power is identical/ non-identical between the two receiving antennas. Analytical results show that the channel capacity decreases with the correlation coefficient of the received signals, and the decreasing rate is accelerated when the correlation coefficient of the received signals is greater than 0.7. In addition, the channel capacity reaches its peak when the received mean signal power of each branch is identical.

This paper improves the effects of clustered OFCDM scheme considering the frequency diversity effect over a frequency selective fading channel. In OFCDM with frequency domain spreading compared to OFDM, we can increase uncorrelated symbols by frequency allocation method of correspondent symbols over the same antenna and different antenna after spreading. The simulation results show that the performance of proposed system is improved by approximately 4 dB in ${\sigma}=0.02{\mu}sec$, the performance is improved by approximately 2.5dB in large delay spread in a 12-path Rayleigh fading channel with overall the root mean squared delay spread and the maximum Doppler frequency of 20 Hz. Also, the required average received Eb/No at the average BER of $10^{-3}$ by optimum method is improved by approximately 2.0 dB, compared to that of STA-OFCDM with frequency rearrange. The new method does not require any bandwidth expansion any feedback from the receiver to the transmitter and its computation complexity is similar to clustered OFCDM.

OFDM is a digital modulation technique where a single data symbol is transmitted at multiple subcarriers which are orthogonal to each other. With this technique, frequency diversity can be achieved. The performance of OFDM systems with SFBC and STBC antenna diversity are analyzed, where data is transmitted over time and frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The performance of this technique, gauged by the average bit error rate, is analyzed for the OFDM systems.

In this paper, a new multiuser detector combining multicarrier and decorrelating detection schemes is proposed and analyzed in a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The bit error probability is derived and compared with that of the conventional decorrelating detector. From the numerical results, it is shown that the proposed detector achieves better BER performance and lower computational complexity than those of the conventional decorrelating detector.

본 논문에서는 사용자의 분포에 따라 섹터의 크기가 가변되는 안테나의 섹터 형성과 오율성능 개선을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다. 섹터의 크기가 가변적이기 때문에 사용자의 분포에 따라 섹터별 부하의 차이를 줄일 수 있어 간섭제거 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 시뮬레이션 결과 가우스 분포를 하는 사용자 수에 따라 섹터의 크기가 가변됨을 확인할 수 있었고, 고정된 섹터 시스템에 비해 동일한 SNR에 대해 오율성능이 개선됨을 알 수 있었다. 채널 환경으로는 가우스 잡음, 레일리 페이딩 및 다중 사용자 간섭을 고려하였고 변복조 시스템은 BPSK로 하였다.

In this paper, we have investigated the adaptive sector antenna which can control the size and direction angle of sectors, and proposed the three sectorization algorithms which are based on distribution of users, distribution of codes and distribution of signal power, respectively. The BERs of each sectorization algorithms are compared through computer simulation. As results of the simulation, the sectorization algorithm based on signal power are better than the other in terms nf BER. We have simulated error performance the DS-CDMA/BPSK system with the antenna in AWGN, frequency non-selective Rayleigh fading and MAI channels.

In this paper we analyze the bit error rate of an in-band DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) system which is based upon orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) and uses M-PSK and M-QAM modulation schemes in the interference environment of an analog FM signal. Results are derived which take into account the influence of the frequency non- selective Rician fading channel, but they are valid for Rayleigh fading channel and AWGN channel as well. Theoretical bit error rates and simulation results are given for system parameters for DAB proposed by ETRI(Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute).
