In this paper, we propose a new transmit diversity technique for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to improve the link level performance of open-loop systems. By cyclically applying a predetermined set of preceding weight vectors, artificially induced fluctuation is created to achieve additional diversity gain in flat fading channels. To design the set of the precoding vectors, we exploit the knowledge on the distribution of near optimum Preceding vectors observed in a beamforming scheme based on the rotation transformations. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed open-loop diversity scheme with an arbitrary number of transmit antennas achieves a full diversity gain with computational complexity comparable to a single-input single-output (SISO) system.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication may provide high spectral efficiency through the deployment of a very large number of antenna elements at the base stations. The gains from massive MIMO communication come from the use of multi-user MIMO on the uplink and downlink, but with a large excess of antennas at the base station compared to the number of served users. Initial work on massive MIMO did not fully address several practical issues associated with its deployment. This paper considers the impact of channel aging on the performance of massive MIMO systems. The effects of channel variation are characterized as a function of different system parameters assuming a simple model for the channel time variations at the transmitter. Channel prediction is proposed to overcome channel aging effects. The analytical results on aging show how capacity is lost due to time variation in the channel. Numerical results in a multicell network show that massive MIMO works even with some channel variation and that channel prediction could partially overcome channel aging effects.

Recently mobile devices can transmit mass data contained multi-media contents. According these flow, a demand for fast data transmission is being risen, so we acutely require remarkable technology that overcome mobile communication's poor environment and rise data transmission volume. Because it can be satisfied these needs, the OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) that rise data transmission volume using efficient frequency, and MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) that rise transmission confidence and data transmission volume using numbers of antenna is attended. Before design of MIMO-OFDM System we want to make an analysis for theory of its systems, and we want to design MIMO-OFDM simulator for verify an ability of modulation, data volume and numbers of antenna.

본 논문은 다중 사용자 MIMO(Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) 하향링크 채널 환경에서 시스템 용량을 향상시키기 위한 피드백 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 기존의 피드백 방법인 CVQ (Channel Vector Quantization)는 채널 용량을 증가시키기 위하여 피드백 부하를 증가시킬 뿐만 아니라 양자화 비트 수도 증가시킨다. CVQ는 각각의 사용자가 채널을 미리 정의된 N개의 코드북 벡터 중에서 하나로 양자화하여 그 벡터의 인덱스 값을 피드백한다. 본 논문에서는 피드백 부하의 증가없이 채널 상태 정보를 피드백 해줌으로써 시스템 용량을 향상시키는 새로운 피드백 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 기존 방법인 CVQ와 성능을 분석하였다. 송신 안테나 수가 두 개인 경우, 제안 방법은 3비트 피드백으로 기존 CVQ 방법 6비트와 동일한 시스템 용량을 얻는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11a OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 기반의 MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) 시스템에서 별도의 피드백 채널 없이 ARQ(Automatic Repeat Request) 신호를 이용한 적응변조 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 일정수의 ACK(Acknowledgement)를 수신하면 이전 패킷의 변조단계로부터 변조 단계를 올리고 일정수의 NACK(Non-acknowledgement)를 수신하면 변조단계를 낮춤으로써 최적의 변조율을 추정하는 기술로 간단하고 빠른 수렴 속도를 갖는 장점이 있다. MIMO 시스템 기반의 본 논문에서는 모든 안테나의 전송률을 동일하게 조절하는 SRC(Same Rate Control)기법과 안테나별로 독립적으로 전송률을 조절하는 IRC(Individual Rate Control) 기법을 제안한다. 다양한 모의실험을 통하여 제안한 적응변조 기법들이 변조 방식이 고정된 기법뿐 아니라 기존의 ARQ를 이용하는 적응변조 기법에 비해서도 좋은 전송 효율을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient soft-output signal detection method for spatially multiplexed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The proposed method is based on the ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) algorithm, but it significantly improves the performance of the original OSIC algorithm by solving the error propagation problem. The proposed method combines this enhanced OSIC algorithm with a multiple-channel-ordering technique in a very efficient way. As a result, the log likelihood ratio values can be computed by using a very small set of candidate symbol vectors. The proposed method has been synthesized with a 0.13-${\mu}m$ CMOS technology for a $4{\times}4$ 16-QAM MIMO system. The simulation and implementation results show that the proposed detector provides a very good solution in terms of performance and hardware complexity.

This paper proposes an identification method for a thin plate where multiple actuators and sensors are bonded. Since a thin plate has small damping ratios of all modes, each mode can be identified seperately with a bandpass filter for each modal signal. With the bandpass filter and the characteristics of the plate, the Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) model of the plate can be converted to several Multi-Input Single-Output(MISO) models of second order linear difference equations of the modes. Parameters for each mode are obtained by using the Least Square method. Form there MISO models, the MIMO model is obtained in the form of the state space. Experiments were performed for an all-clamped plate with two pairs of piezoelectric actuators and sensors. The outputs of the identified model and the experimental data match well.

Input-series-output-parallel (ISOP) converters consisting of multiple modular DC/DC converters can enable low voltage rating switches to be used under high voltage input applications. This paper presents a digital control strategy, which can achieve equal sharing of input voltage for a modular ISOP system consisting of two-transistor forward DC/DC converters by forcing the input voltages of neighboring modules to be equal. The proposed scheme is analyzed using small signals analysis based on the state space average method. The performance of the proposed control strategy is verified with an experimental prototype of an ISOP converter made up of three two-switch forward converters.

In this paper we propose a waveform design algorithm that localizes the maximum output power in the target direction. We extend existing monostatic radar optimal waveform design schemes to bistatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems. The algorithm simultaneously calculates the direction of departure (DoD) and the direction of arrival (DoA) using a two-dimensional multiple signal classification (MUSIC) method, and successfully localizes the maximum transmitted power to the target locations by exploiting the calculated DoD. The simulation results confirm the performance of the proposed algorithm.

가시광 무선통신은 전송하고자 하는 데이터를 빠른 ON/OFF 속도를 갖는 LED를 이용해 고속의 무선 데이터 전송 수단으로 사용하는 통신 방식이다. VLC 시스템이 발전함에 따라 기본적인 연구 문제는 통신 신뢰성 확보와 성능을 향상시키는 것이다. 가시광 무선통신의 특성 상 빛의 도달 범위에만 통신이 이루어지며, 이는 빛의 발광각도에 따라서 큰 차이를 나타낸다. 이에 본 논문에서는 일반적인 실내 환경의 경우, 여러 개의 LED가 장착되어 있는 속성을 이용하여 MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) 통신 시스템 적용하였으며, 송신기의 발광각도를 변화시켜 수신단에서 얻는 총 전력과 SNR성능을 분석하였다. 이에 대해 시뮬레이션을 실행한 결과, 송신기의 발광 각도에 따라서 SNR 성능과 BER성능에 많은 영향을 끼침을 확인하였다.
