  • This paper proposes a new frequency offset correction technique for OFDM receivers on a frequency-selective fading channel. The frequency offset in the OFDM signals is known to introduce an interchannel interference among the multiple subcarriers, which degrades the receiver performance severely. In order to reduce the frequency offset, this paper describes an algorithm with two stages: acquisition and tracking. At both stages the algorithm oversamples the received OFDM signals. At the acquisition stage the frequency offset is reduced to half or less than the intercarrier spacing by matching the sign patterns of even and odd samples. Next, at tracking stage the frequency offset is compensated by a frequency detector which is controlled by the correlation of the even and odd sample sets. From the results, it is found that the proposed algorithm can correct the frequency offset even if the initial offset exceeds one half of th eintercairrers spacing.

  • Iterative decision feedback equalizer (IDFE) is a recursive equalization technique that can help to achieve an additional performance gain for the system by combining iterative channel decoding and interference cancellation. In a single carrier-based system, the intersymbol interference (ISI) is a critical problem that must be resolved since it causes frequency selective fading. Based on the idea of sharing the estimated information in the process of iteration, IDFE is considered as an efficient solution to improve the robustness of the system performance on the ISI channel. In this paper, the IDFE is applied on single carrier FDMA (SC-FDMA) system to evaluate the performance under ISI channel. The simulation results illustrate that IDFE helps to improve the performance of the SC-FDMA system, especially with long delay spread channels.

  • Frequency selective fading occurs due to the Doppler Effect in mobile communication systems. The performances of the systems are rapidly reduced due to effect of multiuser interference under frequency selective channels at DS-CDMA systems. To overcome these problems, we adopted the multi-carrier modulation techniques, and it is able to solve the frequency selective channel effects by means of these modulation techniques, and interference problems due to multiuser access are solved by means of multiuser detection techniques. In this paper, we proposed the blind MOE/PIC multiuser detection method which is composed of both the blind multiuser detection technique and parallel interference canceller. Thus, simulation results show that the proposed method performs better than conventional methods.

  • OFDM(Orthogonall Frequency Division Multiplexing) is an efficient transmission techniques for the frequency selective fading wireless channel where conventional modulations suffer from severe performance degradation. Recently, more efficient techniques for the OFDM are paid much attention such as adaptive modulation for each subcarrier, since more bit rate has been required for the wireless data network [1-3]. The proposed system employs the adaptive modulation between transmitter and receiver in each subcarrier, where the bit and power is properly allocated. Also multiple antenna system called MIMO is considered, which result in robustness in channel delay, improved power efficiency and improved bit SNR for the given BER.

  • I evaluate the BER performance of OFDM systems in frequency selective Doppler time variant fading channels, considering the pilot patterns for channel estimation. The performance of the systems is degraded due to channel estimation error. For the reduction of performance degradation in acceptable level, the optimum distance of pilot symbols in pilot pattern is 5 subcarriers in frequency domain and 6 OFDM block in time domain.

  • Cyclic Delay Diversity (CDD) is a diversity scheme used in OFDM-based telecommunication systems, transforming spatial diversity into frequency diversity and thus avoiding intersymbol interference without entailing the receiver to be aware of the transmission strategy making the signal more reliable achieving full diversity gain in cooperative systems. Here the analyzation of the influence of CDD-SC scheme in Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) is done with the challenge of overcoming the complication called channel estimation along with overhead in CNR. More specifically, the closed-form expressions for outage probability and symbol error rate are divided under different frequencies among independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) frequency selective fading channel model i.e., the signal is divided into different frequencies and transmitted among several narrow band channels of different characteristics. It is useful in the reduction of interference and crosstalk. The results reveal the diversity order of the proposed system to be mainly affected by the number of multipath components that are available in the CNR.

  • The frequency selective fading by multipaths determines a performance of underwater acoustic communication system in shallow littoral ocean. In this study, a characteristics of underwater acoustic channel and performance of multi-carrier system is evaluated in littoral ocean with a 50m deep water, an effective wave height of 0.5m and sandy mud bottom near Busan city. A multipath delay spread and time and frequency domain are presented as a function of a transmitter-to-receiver range. A bit-error-rate of a 5 channel 4FSK(Frequency Shift Keying) with a transmission rate of 1kbps, is examined and RS(Reed-Solomon) code is also adopted to remove a burst error due to time domain fading. A number of multipath are less than four and a bit-error-rate is decreased as an increase of a transmitter-to-receiver range which gives a congestion of multi-paths resulting in a decrease of time and frequency domain fading. The measured bit-error-rate is about 10-4 at greater than 600m of transmitter-to-receiver range.

  • The performance of existing CDMA-type multiple access data transmission systems is limited by interferences due to adverse mobile communication channel characteristics. Among them, the multi-user interference becomes one of the major performance degradation factors because the signal-to-signal orthogonality can be easily perturbed when numerous user signals are distorted by multipath fading channels and mixed together. In order to enhance the performance of CDMA-type systems by suppressing the multi-user interference, we have adopted chip-based cyclic prefix insertion along with adaptive one-tap DFE equalization into MC-DS-CDMA, which is known for its robustness in the frequency selective multipath fading channel environment. In order to assess the performance of the proposed system, a set of computer simulations is performed in the reverse link in which each user signal undergoes different multipath Rayleigh fading. The results show us a superior performance of our system over other CDMA systems in terms of SNR to BER measurements.

  • The main characteristics of the underwater acoustic channel have varying multipath and fast fading. Especially, Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signals with multiple frequency bands caused loss of information bits allocated on the specific frequencies due to selective fading phenomenon. Therefore, this paper proposes frequency gain control algorithm based on preamble error rates. The proposed algorithm estimates optimal gain value in the range of preamble error rate with less than 10 % for specific faded frequency. By employing turbo equalized FSK signals with rate of 1/3, the experiment was conducted on a lake in Munkyeong city with distance of 300 m to 500 m. The result confirms that packets are decoded successfully by applying proposed algorithm as increasing number of iterations.

  • Cognitive radio (CR), which is proposed as a technology that utilizes the frequency resources effectively, has studied to relive scarcity of the frequency resources. CR provides opportunistically under-utilize licensed frequency to the secondary user. However, in the wireless channels, due to the effect of fading and shadowing environments, spectrum sensing performance is compromised. Besides, to detect and classify various CR systems, a novel spectrum sensing algorithm is needed. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed the spectrum sensing algorithm with water marking scheme.
