A serial concatenated decoding algorithm with dynamic threshold is proposed for low-density parity-check codes with short and medium code lengths. The proposed approach uses a dynamic threshold to select a decoding result from belief propagation decoding and order statistic decoding, which improves the performance of the decoder at a negligible cost. Simulation results show that, under a high SNR region, the proposed concatenated decoder performs better than a serial concatenated decoder without threshold with an Eb/N0 gain of above 0.1 dB.

In this letter, a simplified suboptimum receiver based on soft-limiting for the detection of binary antipodal signals in non-Gaussian noise modeled as a generalized normal-Laplace (GNL) distribution combined with Gaussian noise is presented. The suboptimum receiver has low computational complexity. Furthermore, when the number of diversity branches is small, its performance is very close to that of the Neyman-Pearson optimum receiver based on the probability density function obtained by the Fourier inversion of the characteristic function of the GNL-plus-Gaussian distribution.

음성인식에서 발화검증은 비인식대상어휘(OOV)를 기각시키고, 인식대상어휘라도 오인식 가능성이 높은 결과를 기각시키는 기술을 말한다. 본 논문에서는 혼동가능성 높은 숫자쌍들이 존재하는 한국어 연결 숫자 인식에서 발화검증 결과로 숫자열 기각시 오인식 가능성이 높은 숫자열을 그냥 기각시키는 대신에 대체오류를 수정하여 인식성능을 향상시키고자 하였다. N-best decoding 결과에 따르면 $2^{nd}\;best$ 나 $3^{rd}\;best$안에 대부분의 제대로 된 인식결과들이 포함된다. 따라서, N-best decoding을 이용해, 숫자열 기각시 $2^{nd}\;best$ 숫자열로 대체된 것이라고 가정한 후, 개별숫자 log likelihood ratio(LLR)과 N-best 기반의 숫자열 LLR[3] 등을 함께 고려한 신뢰도 측정방식에 의해 그 가정이 맞다고 판단이 되면 $2^{nd}\;best$ 의 숫자열과 대체함으로써 부분적으로 오류를 수정하였다.

In this paper, we consider coded layered space-time architecture in MIMO-OFDM channels. Vertical Bell Lab Layered Space-Time(V-BLAST) scheme employing ordered successive interference cancellation(OSIC) algorithm provides very high spectral efficiency with low computational complexity. However, the error propagation is a major drawback constraining the overall performance of the V-BLAST system significantly. Based on this problem, we derive an improved detector using soft bit log-likelihood ratio(LLR) value. Simulation results show that the proposed detector outperforms the conventional V-BLAST scheme under spatially uncorrelated as well as correlated fading channels.

In this paper, we consider iterative soft-decision feedback equalizers (sDFE), a.k.a. turbo equalizers for single-carrier transmission. Turbo equalizer takes log-likelihood ratio (LLR) feedback from channel decoder and convert the LLR into symbol estimates and variances to be used for the LLR update at the sDFE. Specifically, we consider both time domain and frequency-domain sDFE and compare their performances. The results shows that frequency-domain sDFE performs better than time-domain one and also that considerable gain can be obtained especially when the channel has deep nulls.

In this research, we compare the efficiency of two test procedures proposed by Prentice and Gloeckler (1978) and Park and Hong (2009) for grouped data with possible right censored observations. Both test statistics were derived using the likelihood ratio principle, but under different semi-parametric models. We review the two statistics with asymptotic normality and consider obtaining empirical powers through a simulation study. The simulation study considers two types of models the location translation model and the scale model. We discuss some interesting features related to the grouped data and obtain null distribution functions with a re-sampling method. Finally we indicate topics for future research.

Having a firm grasp of technical terms is essential for learners of Japanese for Specific Purposes (JSP). This research aims to analyze Japanese nursing care vocabulary based on objective corpus-based frequency and subjectively rated word familiarity. For this purpose, we constructed a text corpus centered on the National Examination for Certified Care Workers to extract nursing care keywords. The Log-Likelihood Ratio (LLR) was used as the statistical criterion for keyword identification, giving a list of 300 keywords as target words for a further word recognition survey. The survey involved 115 participants of whom 51 were certified care workers (CW group) and 64 were individuals from the general public (GP group). These participants rated the familiarity of the target keywords through crowdsourcing. Given the limited sample size, Bayesian linear mixed models were utilized to determine word familiarity rates. Our study conducted a comparative analysis of word familiarity between the CW group and the GP group, revealing key terms that are crucial for professionals but potentially unfamiliar to the general public. By focusing on these terms, instructors can bridge the knowledge gap more efficiently.

소표본 분할표 자료에서 적합도 검정통계량들의 카이제곱 근사 적용 가능에 대하여 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 소표본에서 세 가지 검정 통계량(피어슨 카이제곱 Χ$^2$, 일반화 가능도비 G$^2$, 그리고 역발산 Ι(2/3) 검정통계량)에 관하여 비교한 Rudas(1986)의 연구를 확장하여, 최근에 제안된 차이측도(BWHD(1/9), BWCS(1/3), NED(4/3) 검정통계량)를 포함시켜 비교 분석하였다. 독립모형의 이차원 분할표, 조건부 독립모형과 한 변수 독립 모형을 따르는 삼차원 분할표에 대한 모의실험을 통하여 생성된 90과 95 백분위수와 이에 대응하는 95% 신뢰구간을 살펴보고 실제 백분위수와 비교하였다. 그 결과 Χ$^2$, Ι(2/3), 그리고 BWHD(1/9) 검정통계량이 유사한 결과를 나타내었고 이 통계량들이 기존에 제안된 검정통계량들보다 적은 표본크기에서도 카이제곱 근사방법에 적용 가능함을 발견하였다.

본 논문에서는 음성검출의 성능을 향상시킬 목적으로 정합 필터를 이용한 음성향상 전처리 과정을 통하여 SNR을 개선한 후, 이를 LLR(Log Likelihood Ratio) 검사에 의한 최적 결정방법을 적용하여 확률적인 모델을 기준으로 하는 향상된 음성검출 방법을 제안한다. 또한 기존의 음성검출 방법들에서는 제시되지 않았던 문턱값 갱신 알고리즘을 제안하며, 이 방법을 통해서 기존의 방법들에서 성능이 좋지 않았던 낮은 SNR 환경에서도 음성검출을 할 수 있게 되었다. 마지막으로 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 이미 상용화되어 널리 이용중인 G.729B(ITU-TG.729 Annex B)의 음성검출 결과와 비교를 통해서 제안한 음성검출 방법의 성능의 우수성을 검증하며, 실제적인 환경에도 적용이 가능함을 보인다.

Coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) techniques are being touted as enabling technologies for interference mitigation in next generation heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets). In this paper, we present a comparative performance study of uplink (UL) CoMP algorithms for the 3GPP LTE HetNets. Focusing on a distributed and functionally-split architecture, we consider six distinct UL-CoMP algorithms: 1. Joint reception in the frequency-domain (JRFD) 2. Two-stage equalization (TSEQ) 3. Log-likelihood ratio exchange (LLR-E) 4. Symmetric TSEQ (S-TSEQ) 5. Transport block selection diversity (TBSD) 6. Coordinated scheduling with adaptive interference mitigation (CS-AIM) where JRFD, TSEQ, S-TSEQ, TBSD and CS-AIM are our main contributions in this paper, and quantify their relative performances via the post-processing signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio distributions.We also compare the CoMP-specific front-haul rate requirements for all the schemes considered in this paper. Our results indicate that, with a linear minimum mean-square error receiver, the JRFD and TSEQ have identical performances, whereas S-TSEQ relaxes the front-haul latency requirements while approaching the performance of TSEQ. Furthermore, in a HetNet environment, we find that CS-AIM provides an attractive alternative to TBSD and LLR-E with a significantly reduced CoMP-specific front-haul rate requirement.
