Nowadays, various researches fulfill in many communication engineering area for B4G (Beyond Forth Generation). Next LTE-A (Long Term Evolution Advanced), MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multi Input Multi Output) method raises to upgrade throughput performance. However, the method of user selection is not decided because of many types and discussions in MU-MIMO system. Many existing methods are powerful for enhancing performance but have various restrictions in practical implementation. Fairness problem is primary restriction in this area. Existing papers emphasis algorithm to increase sum-rate but we introduce an algorithm about dealing with fairness problem for real commercialization implementation. Therefore, this paper introduces new user selection method in MU-MIMO system. This method overcomes a fairness problem in SUS (Semiorthogonal User Selection) algorithm. We can use the method to get a similar sum-rate with SUS and a high fairness performance. And this paper uses a hybrid method with SC-SUS (Superposition Coding SUS) algorithm and SUS algorithm. We find a threshold value of optimal performance by experimental method. We show this performance by computer simulation with MATLAB and analysis that results. And we compare the results with another paper's that different way to solve fairness problem.

This paper presents the unified user equipment (UE) baseband modulation and demodulation (modem) hardware platform architecture to support multiple radio access technologies. In particular, this platform selectively supports two systems; one is HEDGE system, which is the combination of third generation partnership project (3GPP) Release 7 high speed packet access evolution (HSPA+) and global system for mobile communication (GSM)/general packet radio service (GPRS)/enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE), while the other is LEDGE system, which is the combination of 3GPP Release 8 long term evolution (LTE) and GSM/GPRS/EDGE. This is done by applying the flexible pin multiplexing scheme to a hardwired pin mapping process. On the other hand, to provide stable connection, high portability, and high debugging ability, the stacking structure is employed. Here, a layered board architecture grouped by functional classifications is applied instead of the conventional one flatten board. Based on this proposed configuration, we provide a framework for the verification step in wireless cellular communications. Also, modem function/scenario test and inter-operability test with various base station equipments are verified by system requirements and scenarios.

A heterogeneous network (HetNet) is a network topology composed by deploying multiple HetNets under the coverage of macro cells (MCs). It can improve network throughput, extend cell coverage, and offload network traffic; for example, the network traffic of a 5G mobile communications network. A HetNet involves a mix of radio technologies and various cell types working together seamlessly. In a HetNet, coordination between MCs and small cells (SCs) has a positive impact on the performance of the networks contained within, and consequently on the overall user experience. Therefore, to improve user-perceived service quality, HetNets require high-efficiency network protocols and enhanced radio technologies. In this paper, we introduce a 5G HetNet comprised of MCs and both fixed and mobile SCs (mSCs). The featured mSCs can be mounted on a car, bus, or train and have different characteristics to fixed SCs (fSCs). In this paper, we address the technical challenges related to mSCs. In addition, we analyze the network performance under two HetNet scenarios-MCs and fSCs, and MCs and mSCs.

이동통신과 디지털 영상처리 기술의 발전에 의해 음성통신, WWW, e-mail, FTP 등 전통적 서비스 이외에 VoD 등 융합형서비스가 이동통신망에서도 상용화되고 있다. 이러한 융합형 서비스는 LTE-Advanced 네트워크 등 초고속 이동 통신망과 통합형 휴대 단말기를 바탕으로 U-cloud 서비스, 모바일 IP-TV 등으로 진화될 것 이다. 본 연구에서는 이종 융합 무선망에서 음성통신, VoD, 영상통화 등 실시간 서비스의 품질을 허용 가능한 수준으로 보장하면서도 무선자원의 활용도를 높여 WWW 등 기존의 비실시간 인터넷 서비스를 최대한 수용하기 위한 방안을 제안한다.

4세대 이동통신시스템 '롱텀에볼루션(LTE)'의 핵심기술인 다중 송수신 (MIMO) 안테나 시스템은 추가적인 주파수나 송신전력의 할당 없이도 채널 용량을 안테나 수에 비례하여 증가시킬 수 있는 장점으로 인해 데이터 전송 속도를 획기적으로 늘리는 기술로 4세대 이동통신기술 진화의 핵심기술로 꼽히고 있다. 본 논문은 다중 송수신 안테나 시스템에서 사용되는 2개 이상의 DAC 대신에 고속 DAC와 아날로그 스위치를 각각 한 개씩 사용하여 기존 방식의 장점을 유지하며 설계비용 감소, 물리적 크기 축소화 등 경제적 효율을 증가시킬 수 있는 MIMO 시스템에서 데이터 컨버터를 줄일 수 있는 방안을 제안한다.

A wideband dual-polarized antenna coupling cross resonator is proposed for LTE700/GSM850/GSM900 base stations. An additional resonance is introduced to obtain strong coupling between the dipole and resonator. Moreover, the input impedance of the proposed antenna is steadily close to $50{\Omega}$, which results in better impedance matching. Therefore, a wide bandwidth can be achieved with multiresonance. A prototype is fabricated to verify the proposed design. The measured results show that the antenna has a fractional bandwidth of 35.7% from 690 MHz to 990 MHz for ${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}$ < -15 dB. Stable radiation patterns as well as gain are also obtained over the entire operating band. Moreover, a five-element antenna array with an electrical downtilt of $0^{\circ}$to $14^{\circ}$ is developed for modern base station applications. Measurement shows that a wide impedance bandwidth of 34.7% (690 MHz to 980 MHz), stable HPBW (3-dB beamwidth) of $65{\pm}5^{\circ}$, and high gain of $13.8{\pm}0.6dBi$ are achieved with electrical downtilts of $0^{\circ}$, $7^{\circ}$, and $14^{\circ}$.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a system which is used to encode data using multiple carriers instead of the traditional single carrier system. This method improves the spectral efficiency (optimum use of bandwidth). It also lessens the effect of fading and intersymbol interference (ISI). In 1995, digital audio broadcast (DAB) adopted OFDM as the first standard using OFDM. Later in 1997, it was adopted for digital video broadcast (DVB). Currently, it has been adopted for WiMAX and LTE standards. In this project, a Verilog design is employed to implement an OFDM transmitter (DAC block) and receiver (FFT and ADC block). Generally, OFDM uses FFT and IFFT for modulation and demodulation. In this paper, 16-point FFT decimation-in-frequency (DIF) with the radix-2 algorithm and direct summation method have been analyzed. ADC and DAC in OFDM are used for conversion of the signal from analog to digital or vice-versa has also been analyzed. All the designs are simulated using Verilog on ModelSim simulator. The result generated from the FFT block after Verilog simulation has also been verified with MATLAB.

Adaptive Multi-Rate Codec is one of the codecs which is used for making voice calls. It helps to connect people who are scattered in various geographical areas. It adjusts its bit-rate according to the user's channel conditions. It plays a vital role in providing an improved speech quality of voice connection in Long Term Evolution (LTE). There are some constraints which need to be addressed in providing this service profitably. Quality of Service (QoS) is the dominant mechanism which determines the quality of the speech in communication. On several occasions, number of users are trying to access the same channel simultaneously by standing in a particular region for a longer period of time. It refers to Multi-user channel sharing problem which leads to resource loss very often. The main aim of this paper is to develop a novel RSA - QoS scheduling algorithm for reducing the Resource Loss Ratio. Eventually, it increases the throughput.The simulation result shows that the RSA - QoS increases the number of users for accessing the resources better than the existing algorithms in terms of resource loss and throughput. Ultimately, it enhances the QoS in Mobile Networks.

셀룰러 인프라 구조에 기반하여 셀룰러 스펙트럼을 공유하여 사용하는 D2D (Device-to-Device) 통신은 몇 가지 장점이 있지만, 셀룰러 네트워크 사용자와 동일한 자원을 사용하므로 간섭이 생기는 큰 문제점이 있다. 특히, 다중 셀에서 셀 경계 D2D 사용자와 셀룰러 사용자 간의 간섭 문제는 셀의 중심부에서보다 훨씬 강도가 높게 발생한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 인접한 셀들의 중심에 위치한 SRN (Shared Relay Node)이 셀룰러 링크와 D2D 링크 사이에 발생하는 간섭을 효율적으로 관리하는 새로운 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 SRN은 기존 Type II 릴레이와 같이 데이터 재전송 역할을 수행할 뿐만 아니라, 추가적으로 간섭 관리를 위한 기능을 수행하기 때문에 몇 가지 기능이 새롭게 정의된다. 셀룰러 링크와 D2D 링크 사이에 간섭 관리를 위한 구체적인 방법으로 본 논문에서는 셀 경계영역 사용자들의 간섭 회피를 위한 SRN 기반 자원할당 방법을 제안하고 이들의 성능을 모의실험을 통해 검증하였다.
