In this paper, a terrestrial transmission system is proposed for the next generation digital television (DTV) system by applying a hybrid multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology based on linear dispersion codes (LDCs). The digital video broadcasting-2nd generation terrestrial (DVB-T2) system adopted a space time block code (STBC) for improving receive performance. However, the data rate of STBC is not increased in proportion to the transmitter. The hybrid STBC scheme utilizes several STBC transmission blocks for increasing data rate. It is possible to increase the data rate and performance in the receiver by utilizing LDC. The performances of the proposed and conventional hybrid STBC schemes are evaluated through computer simulations.

In this paper, we propose transmission systems for ultra high definition television (UHDTV) through terrestrial transmission by applying the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology. The space time block code, hybrid STBC, V-BLAST and linear dis- persion code are considered to support a high data rate of the UHDTV system. The performance of proposed MIMO systems are evaluated through computer simulations. Then we suggest MIMO parameters, number of antennas and optimal transmission scheme to achieve the transmission rate of the UHDTV system.

Internet traffic is rapidly increasing due to the spread of personal smart devices. It causes serious burden on base stations and access points which are installed in buildings, buses, trains, and ships. We consider a communication scenario aboard a cruise ship and propose efficient contents distribution schemes to alleviate the burden of access points with multi-device-to-multi-device(MD2MD) communication. The proposed transmission method is based on the hybrid STBC-SM scheme. We compare the error performance of MD2MD communication system on the cruise ship using space-time block coding (STBC) scheme, spatial multiplexing (SM) scheme. The proposed MD2MD communication system is expected to adopt in the ship-area-network (SAN) with efficient contents distribution and reliable communication.

This paper proposes a hybrid algorithm of space-time block coding and space-frequency block coding using alternate time switch. The traditional alternate time-switched space-time or space-frequency block coding technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system does not provide a good performance with a variety of communication environments. This hybrid algorithm has searched good performance ranges in various environments in view points of mobile speed and doppler frequency. In this paper, we investigate better performance ranges for two algorithms, suggest a hybrid algorithm for dynamically changing communication environments, propose a structure for transmitter and receiver, and show that its performance is better than the traditional algorithm by simulations.

MIMO(multi-input multi-output) 시스템은 여러 개의 송 수신기를 이용하여 정보를 전송하여 주파수 대역폭의 확장 없이 채널 용량을 증가시킨다. 그러나 공간 다이버시티를 증가시키는 STBC(space time block code)를 제외한 공간 다중화 방식을 사용하는 LDC(linear dispersion code) 시스템은 변조 레벨이 증가할수록 수신기의 복잡도가 기하급수적으로 높아진다. 본 논문에서는 하이브리드 LDC-MIMO 시스템을 적용하여 낮은 변조 레벨에서도 전송량을 증가시키면서 수신기의 복잡도를 감소시킬 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리듬은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였다.

Visible light communication, which transmits information using visible light, has advantages such as ultra-high speed, ultra-delay, and ultra-connectivity, so research is being conducted as a way to complement 6G communication. In this paper, a study was conducted to overcome the performance degradation caused by the RGB mixing ratio in visible light communication. In a visible light communication system using LED lighting, the role of lighting is an important function, and when used for communication, the performance difference according to the RGB mixing ratio inevitably occurs. In particular, if the intensity of light is below a certain standard, the problem of deteriorating the performance of the entire system occurs. In this study, when a certain performance or less occurs in the communication system caused by the difference in the mixing ratio among the three RGB channels, the remaining two signals except the LED with the best performance are transmitted to STBC (Space-Time Block Coding) to ensure the quality of communication. A computer simulation was performed to verify the performance of the proposed system, and it can be seen that the performance of the proposed system is improved compared to the existing system.

본 논문에서는 대역폭 효율을 향상시키는 공간 변조(spatial modulation) 다중 안테나 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템은 다중 송신 안테나 중 하나의 안테나를 사용하여 채널 간에 간섭을 피할 수 있어서 다중 경로가 많은 실내 환경에서 적합하다. 그러나 심벌 전송 구간마다 한 개의 안테나만을 선택하여 전송하므로 다중 안테나의 최대 부호 이득을 얻을 수 없다. 이를 극복하기 위하여 시공간블록부호화 방식을 적용한 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템은 두 개의 안테나를 사용하여 수신 성능을 향상시키지만 대역폭 효율이 향상되지 않는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Hybrid STBC 시스템을 적용한 공간 변조를 제안하여 공간 변조 다중 안테나 시스템의 대역폭 효율을 개선한다.

The MIMO has weak points such as size and cost of systems and the complexity of hardware augment. Thus, the cooperative transmission techniques have been recently discussed briskly and it also solves problems by increase of shadowy area. However, limited cooperation scheme is utilized due to a single-antenna at the destination. The base station is simply equipped with multiple antennas. When the base station has multiple antennas, cooperative diversity and multiplexing schemes can be easily applied in the base station. To guarantee reliability with high throughput, a cooperative hybrid cyclic relay diversity transmission scheme is proposed which can use an arbitrary number of relays without rate loss and a modification of the base station. The presented results show that the proposed schemes can be effectively applied to the existing various MIMO-OFDM communication system.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of various diversity techniques which can contribute to provide efficient multimedia broadcasting services via hybrid/integrated satellite and terrestrial network. Space-time coding (STC) can achieve the diversity gain in a multi-path environment without additional bandwidth requirement. Recent study results reported that satellite systems can achieve high diversity gains by appropriate utilization of STC and/or forward error correction schemes. Based on these previous study results, we present various cooperative diversity techniques by combining STC and rate compatible turbo codes in order to realize the transmit diversity for the mobile satellite system. The satellite and several terrestrial repeaters operate in unison to send the encoded signals, so that receiver may realize diversity gain. The results demonstrated in this paper can be utilized in future system implementation.
