This paper investigates the network throughput of PLC (Power Line Communication) system in the in-building network. The OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation format and adaptive bit loading algorithm is used to minimize the effect of signal loss and noise on transmission performance in the power line channel characterized by frequency selective fading. The network throughput of the PLC system which consists of gateway and CPE（Customer Premise Equipment) PLC modem in the in-building network is measured by network performance measurement tool, iperf and analyzed according to the TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) window size.

Pilot symbol assisted modulation (PSAM) can be used for the channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission systems. However, imperfect channel estimates in PSAM systems degrade the bit error rate (BER) performance. I derive the BER of PSAM OFDM systems over time dispersive fading channels. The BER performance of OFDM systems with SFBC antenna diversity are analyzed, where data is transmitted over time and frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The performance of this PSAM SFBC OFDM systems, gauged by the average bit error rate, is analyzed considering the channel estimation error.

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 general wireless mobile channel is modeled as complex random processes having a narrowband spectrum. In this paper, a real-time feneration of fading signals using a DSP chip is described. Real-time simulator is designed so that simulation parameters such as mobile terminal speed, carrier frequency, power ratio of line-of-sight component versus multipath, and variance of received power can be chosen in the window. Design algorithms for the generation of ideal fading signals with a minimum DSP computation and trade-offs are investigated. The accuracy of the statistical characteristics is verified through the comparison of measured results with the theoretical prediction.

In multicarrier code division multiple access(MC-CDMA), the total system bandwidth is divided into a number of sub-bands, where each subband may use direct-sequence(DS) spreading and each subband signal is transmitted using a subcarrier frequency. In this paper, the system performance analysis of MC-CDMA using to gain combining(EGC) and maximal ratio combining(MRC) method over frequency selective Nakagami-m fading channel is analyzed. In the proposed system, a data sequence is serial-to-parallel converted, and MC-CDMA is used on each of the parallel data streams. The data streams are spread at both the symbol fraction level and at the chip level by the transmitter. In this paper, the compare to analysis,two standard diversity combining techniques, EGC and MRC, The good performance of system using to MRC more than EGC

In this paper, we propose a robust trellis coded OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system for wireless communications over frequency selective fading channels. Computer simulations show that the proposed system achieves the better frame error rate(FER) performance as compared with the conventional Space time coded OFDM system in the correlated channel with multiple transmitter antennas.

The mobile radio channel can be simulated as a complex-valued random process with narrow-band spectrum. This paper describes a real-time implementation of that process using a INS320C6414 digital signal processor and XC2VP30 Virtex FPGA. The simulator presented here is not only a comprehensive model of the flat fading but also frequency selective fading mobile channel conditions. To replicate the statistical characteristics of the multipath fading environment with the minimum computational burden, multi-rate techniques are employed to resolve practical problems such as variable sampling rate. The simulator produces accurate and consistent results due to digital implementation. It is very flexible and simple to program for various field conditions in mobile communications with a graphical user interface.

In this paper, a new receiver is proposed for the detection of the OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) signals in the time-selective multipath fading channel. For the optimal detection, we estimate the transmitted symbols from OFDM demultiplexing signal using the LMLE(linear masimum likelihold estimation) algorithm. Also, in this paper, the lowerbound for BER(bit error rate) using Taylor series approximation is provided. If the matched filter is used for the OFDM receiver in the time-selectivemultipath fading channel, it is known that the SER(symbol error rate) is always greater than $10^{-1}$, due to the cross-talk between adjacent channels. But, the proposed receiver provides of SER with 15dB SNR. Also, it is found that for the receiver implemented using the LMLE algorithm, the performance is shown to be not affected by the increase of th enumber of subchannel and channel path.

The underwater channel is known to offer poor communications channel. The channel medium is highly absorptive and the transmission bandwidth is limited. In addition, the channel is highly frequency selective; the degree of selectiveness depends on a detailed geometry of the channel. Furthermore, the response changes over time as the channel conditions affecting the response such as water temperature, sea surface wind and salinity are time-varying. The transceiver design to deal with the frequency and time selective channel, therefore, becomes very challenging. It has been known that deep fading at certain specific sub-carriers are detrimental to OFDM systems. To mitigate this negative effect, the proposed coded OFDM system employs an LDPC code based modulation. In this paper, we aim 1) to provide a detailed underwater channel model; 2) to design a robust LDPC coded OFDM system; 3) to test the proposed system under a variety of channel conditions enabled by the channel model.

In this paper, we propose out-of -band collaborative spectrum sensing scheme in the cognitive radio (CR) base station operated by the multiple frequency channels. Also this paper presents the signal detection results for ATSC digital TV signal as an incumbent signal and derives signal detection probability and false alarm probability for the out-of-band collaborative spectrum sensing scheme in frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. Numerical results demonstrate that the sensing performance is improved by the out-of-band collaborative spectrum sensing in the case that the incumbent signal powers measured by the CR terminals of the multiple frequency channels are almost similar.
