In this study, the performance of a 32-quadrature amplitude position modulation (QAPM) system is analyzed under a Rician fading channel condition when the maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique is used in the receiver. The fading channel is modeled as a frequency non-selective slow Rician fading channel corrupted by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). QAPM is available to improve BER performance without amplifying transmit power, and MRC diversity makes the performance improvement of QAPM system even bigger by intentionally maximizing SNR. Error performances are shown for the 32-QAPM system and a 32-phase silence shift keying (PSSK) system in order to examine the effects of fading severity, for various values of the Rician parameter, K. The dependence of error rates on MRC diversity is also analyzed. The simulation results show that the BER performance of the 32-QAPM system is better than that of the 32-PSSK system under the above mentioned conditions.

본 논문에서는 나카가미-n(라이시안) 페이딩 채널 상에서 그레이 부호화된 직사각 QAM(Rectangular-QAM) 신호를 최대비 합성(maximal ratio combining) 다이버시티로 수신하는 경우 비트노율(Bit Error Rate, BER)을 계산하는 수식을 다양한 채널에 적용할 수 있도록 일반적 형태로 유도하고 그 성능 분석을 실시한다. 유도된 BER 수식은 휘태커 함수)Whittaker function)와 초기하 함수(confluent hypergeometric)로 표현된다. 또한 M-PSK와의 성능 비교를 통하여 나카가미-n 페이딩 채널의 특성을 확인한다. BER 수식이 일반적인 형태로 유도되었기 때문에 가시 경로(line-of-sight)를 가지는 통신채널이나 위성통신 채널의 성능분석에 본 논문에서 유도한 BER 수식을 쉽게 적용할 수 있다.

The paper considers a spectrum sharing cognitive radio (CR) network coexisting with a primary network under the average interference power constraint. In particular, the secondary user (SU) is assumed to carry delay-sensitive services and thus shall satisfy a given delay quality-of-service (QoS) constraint. The secondary receiver is also assumed to be equipped with multiple antennas to perform maximal ratio combining (MRC) to enhance SU performance. We investigate the effective capacity of the SU with MRC diversity under aforementioned constraints in Nakagami fading environments. Particularly, we derive the optimal power allocation to achieve the maximum effective capacity of the SU, and further derive the effective capacity in closed-form. In addition, we further obtain the closed-form expressions for the effective capacities under three widely used power and rate adaptive transmission schemes, namely, optimal simultaneous power and rate adaptation (opra), truncated channel inversion with fixed rate (tifr) and channel inversion with fixed rate without truncation (cifr). Numerical results supported by simulations are presented to consolidate our studies. The impacts on the effective capacity of various system parameters such as the number of antennas, the average interference power constraint and the delay QoS constraint are investigated in detail. It is shown that MRC diversity can significantly improve the effective capacity of the SU especially for cifr transmission scheme.

오늘날 무선통신시스템은 제한된 주파수 자원을 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 다양한 기술이 적용되어 있다. 적응변조기법은 현재 채널 상황에 적응하여 적절한 변조방식을 선택하는 방법으로 통신시스템의 수율(throughput)을 높일 수 있어 대부분의 무선통신 시스템에서 사용되고 있다. 변조 선택의 기준으로는 보통 현 채널의 신호대간섭비(SNR)가 사용되며, 채널의 통계적 특성을 이용하면 변조 선택을 위한 SNR 경계 결정을 최적화시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 송신단에서 안테나 선택을 하고 (transmit antenna selection) 수신단에서 MRC(maximal-ratio combining)를 사용하는 TAS/MRC 시스템에서 적응변조기법을 적용했을 때, 변조 선택을 위한 SNR 경계 결정법을 살펴보고 그 성능을 분석한다.

This paper proposes a low power transmission technique for single-carrier modulation with frequency domain equalization. As time domain signals and frequency domain signals have unique corresponding functions, inserting zeros after each symbol causes a repetition in other domain, so maximal ratio combining technique using repetitive transmission can be applied in the frequency domain. In this paper, we configure transmit signals to insert zeros after each symbols for single-carrier modulation with frequency domain equalization and maximal ratio receive combining block in the receiver structures, propose a structure for transmitter and receiver and show that its performance is better than the traditional algorithm by simulations.

For mobile wireless systems with full frequency reuse, co-channel interference near the cell coverage boundaries has a significant impact on the signal reception performance. This paper addresses an approach to efficiently mitigate the effect of downlink co-channel interference when multi-antenna terminals are used in cellular environments, by proposing a signal detection strategy combined with a system-level coordination for dynamic frequency reuse. We demonstrate the utilization of multi-antennas to perform spatial demultiplexing of both the desired signal and interfering signals from adjacent cells results in significant improvement of spectral efficiency compared to the maximal ratio combining (MRC) performance, especially when an appropriate frequency reuse based on the traffic loading condition is coordinated among cells. Both analytic expressions for the capacity and experimental results using the adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) are used to confirm the performance gain. The robustness of the proposed scheme against varying operational conditions such as the channel estimation error and shadowing effects are also verified by simulation results.

본 논문은 광대역 무선통신환경에서 3GPP(3rd Generation Partnership Project)에 기반한 비동기 IMT-2000 시스템의 송수신 시스템을 구성하여 기지국의 수신성능을 분석하였다. 이동국과 기지국간의 Uplink 채널 환경을 고려하였으며, 기지국의 수신신호는 다중경로 페이딩(Multi-path Fading)과 다중접속간섭(Mult Access Interference : MAI)의 영향으로 성능일 열화된다. 이에 대한 대책으로 Array 안테나를 채용하였을 경우와 MRC-Diversity(Maximal Combining Diversity)를 채용하였을 경우의 수신성능을 동일한 환경에서 비교 분석하였으며, 각각의 시스템에 간섭제거기를 직렬로 비교분석하였다. 본 논문에서 적용한 Array 안테나는 수신 신호의 방향에 따라 적응적으로 추적하여 수신 SNR(Singnal-to-Noise power Ratio)을 최대로 형성하여 시스템의 성능을 개선하는 기법이며, 안테나의 방향성(Directivity :D=2.67)을 이용하는 3-element Array 안테나를 채용하였다. 최대비 합성 다이버시티 기법은 다이버시티 기법 중 수신효율이 가장 좋으며 가지수(L=2)를 함수를 사용하였다. 성능분석 결과 다중경로 페이딩과 다중접속간섭 환경에서 최대비 합성 다이버시티 기법이 Array 안테나보다 수신효율이 우수하였다.

This paper presents and analyses the closed-form expression of the average bit error rate (BER) for an asynchronous direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system with coherent binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation scheme using a maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity over a Rician fading channel. In addition to the average BER, outage probability, and user capacity of system are estimated as performance measures. The results are general enough so that it includes Rayleigh fading and nonfading channel with zero and infinite Rician factor, respectively, as special cases. The effects of various channel models, processing gains, and diversity orders on the system performances are also considered for the typical multipath delay profiles characterized by Rician fading channel.

We derive and analyze the exact closed-form expression for the average bit error probability (BEP) of M-ary square quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) for diversity reception in frequency-nonselective Nakagami fading. A maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique with independent or correlated fading cases are considered. Numerical results demonstrate error performance improvement with the use of MRC diversity reception. The presented new expressions offer a convenient way to evaluate the performance of M-ary square QAM with an MRC diversity combiner for various cases of practical interest.
