Under the power-based capture model, a transmission is successfully received at the destination, even in the presence of other transmissions and background noise, if the received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio exceeds a capture threshold. We evaluate the spectral efficiency of simple multi-user channels by combining the basic capture model with a communication-theoretic model. The result is a more refined capture model that incorporates key system design parameters (such as achievable bit rate, target bit error rate, channel bandwidth, and modulation signal constellations) that are absent from the basic capture model. The relationships among these parameters can serve as a tool for optimizing the network performance.

Multucarrier code-division multiple access(MC-CDMA) is one of the promising technique for high capacity wireless communication. Hower the carrier phase error and frequency offest cause the performance degradation of MC-CDMA due to the inter-carrier interference. In this work, downlink performance of the partially coherent MC-CDMA is analytically derived in Rayleigh fading channels. The bit error rate sensitivity by combining method, Maxiaml ratio combining (MRC)and Equal gain combining(EGC), is compared as functions of phase errors. multi-user interference, and received signal-to-noise ratio. The results show that the susceptibility for the performance degradation of EGc and MRC is negligible for loop SNR's of above 15 dB and above 10 dB, respectivtely.

In this paper, error performance of DS-CDMA communication system has been analyzed in a radio channel which is characterized by multi-user interference (MUI). Also, performance improvement has been obtained by both numerical analysis and simulation techniques when 3-element array antenna and co-channel interference (CCI) canceller are employed as a means for overcoming an MUI effect. The MUI was modelled as a gaussian random process. In array antenna scheme we only considered a directivity of antennal. The results show that there is a substantial enhancement in performance by employing an array antenna or a CCI canceller. CCI canceller gives better improvement in performance than the array antenna with D=2.67. Additional improvement can be obtained when the array antenna and the CCI canceller are adopted in cascade form. In this case the error performance approaches that of AWGN environment.

랜덤 빔형성 기법은 사용자에게 심호 대 간섭 잡음비를 되먹임 받아 사용자를 선택하는 다중 안테나 전송 기법이다. 해당 기법은 사용자 수가 많은 환경일 경우 다중 사용자 이득에 따라 좋은 성능을 보이지만 사용자 환경이 적을 경우 다중 사용자 이득이 감소하여 좋은 성능을 얻기 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 빔형성 메트릭스 변환 기법 및 이에 따른 사용자 선택 기법을 제안한다. 빔형성 메트릭스 변환 기법은 사용자로부터 되먹임 받은 정보를 기반으로 빔형성 메트릭스를 변환 시키며, 사용자 수가 적은 환경에서 기존 기법 보다 더 좋은 성능을 가진다. 또한, 제안하는 빔형성 메트릭스 변환 기법에 적합한 사용자 선택 기법을 이용하면 사용자 수의 증가에 따른 성능 향상을 기대 할 수 있다.

In recent years, dense small cell network has been deployed to address the challenge that has resulted from the unprecendented growth of mobile data traffic and users. It has proven to be a cost efficeient solution to offload traffic from macro-cells. Software defined heterogeneous wireless network can decouple the control plane from the data plane. The control signal goes through the macro-cell while the data traffic can be offloaded by small cells. In this paper, we propose a framework for cell virtualization and user association in order to satisfy versatile requirements of multiple tenants. In the proposed framework, we propose an interference graph partioning based virtual-cell association and customized physical-cell association for multi-homed users in a software defined small cell network. The proposed user association scheme includes 3 steps: initialization, virtual-cell association and physical-cell association. Simulation results show that the proposed virtual-cell association outperforms the other schemes. For physical-cell association, the results on resource utilization and user fairness are examined for mobile users and infrastructure providers.

이 논문은 다중반송파 직접수열 코드분할 다중접속 (MC-DS/CDMA) 시스템 환경에서 성능향상을 위한 병렬형 간섭제거시스템 (Parallel Interference Canceller: PIC)을 소개한다. 기존의 병렬형 간섭제거 방식은 다중접속간섭을 원하는 신호에서 동시에 제거하는 기법으로 처리시간이 매우 빠르지만, 원하는 성능을 얻기 위해서 다단으로 시스템을 구성해야만 한다. 기존 방식의 성능은 정확한 간섭추정과 매우 밀접한 관계가 있으므로, 우리는 원하는 신호보다 작은 간섭신호 그룹을 좀 더 정확하게 추정하여 성능을 개선시킨 간섭제거 방식을 소개한다. 제안된 수신기의 동작원리는 수신된 신호를 크기에 따라 내림차순 정렬을 하고, 작은 신호들을 정확하게 추정하기 위하여 원하는 신호에서 큰 간섭신호를 제거한다. 다음으로 전 단계에서 개선된 작은 간섭신호들을 원하는 신호에서 제거한다. 이 결과, 큰 신호들의 정확성이 보장되므로 제안 방식은 기존의 병렬형 간섭제거 시스템보다 전반적인 비트 에러율 (Bit Error Ratio)성능이 향상된다. 단점으로 전력 정렬과 간섭추정 단계가 요구되므로 기존시스템보다 처리시간이 조금 지연된다. 성능은 한정된 대역 내에서 부반송파의 증가에 따라 다른 비선형 간섭제거 시스템과 비교 분석하였다.

A centralized cognitive radio (CR) network is proposed and its system capacity is studied. The CR network is designed with power control and multi-user scheduling schemes to support best-effort traffics under peak interference power constraints. We provide an analytical framework to quantify its system capacity, taking into account various key factors such as interference constraints, density of primary users, cell radius, the number of CR users, and propagations effects. Furthermore, closed-form formulas are derived for its capacities when only path loss is considered in the channel model. Semi-analytical expressions for the capacities are also given when more realistic channel models that include path loss, shadowing, and small-scale fading are used. The accuracy of the proposed analytical framework is validated by Monte Carlo simulations. Illustrated with a practical example, the provided analytical framework is shown to be useful for the strategic planning of centralized CR networks.

In this paper, design and applications of a generalized, versatile and customizable IF signal generator that can model the modernized GPS and Galileo signal is given. It generates IF sampled data that can be directly used by a software receiver. Entire constellation of satellites which is independent of satellite-user geometry is easily determined using a real or simulated ephemeris data. Since the IF center frequency, sampling frequency and quantization bit number are user location dependent parameters, their effects are also considered in IF signal generator. The generalized IF signal generator will be very well suited for the development phase of a software receiver due to its versatility. The full access to the sampling frequency, front-end filter definition and ADC parameters also offers a great opportunity for cost-effective analysis of tracking loops and error mitigation techniques at the receiver level. Interference sources can be easily added to the generator to simulate specific environments. This software IF signal generator can also be used to feed a multi-frequency multi-system software receiver for the prototyping of a combined GPS/Galileo receiver. The test result using the generated signals and a real software receiver shows the effectiveness of the implemented IF signal generator.

Packet-based mobile multimedia services for the Internet differ with respect to their resource requirements, performance objectives, and resource usage efficiencies. Nonetheless, each mobile terminal should support a variety of multimedia services, sometimes even simultaneously. This paper proposes a sub-channel allocation scheme based on multi-level priority for supporting mobile multimedia services in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) system. We attempt to optimize the system for satisfying the Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of users and maximize the capacity of the system at the same time. In order to achieve this goal, the proposed scheme considers the Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) of co-sub-channels in adjacent cells, the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) grade of each sub-channel in the local cell on a per-user basis, and the characteristics of the individual services before allocating sub-channels. We used a simulation to evaluate our scheme with the performance measure of the outage probabilities, delays, and throughput.
