Recently, the use of TCP/IP protocols over wireless LANs poses significant problems. In this paper, we have analyzed transmission control protocol (TCP) packet transmission time for mobile IP over wireless local area networks (LANs) using a proposed a new random backoff scheme. We call it as a proxy backoff scheme. It is considered the transmission time of TCP packet on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. From the results, a proposed proxy backoff scheme produces a better performance than an original random backoff in mobile IP over wireless LANs environment. Also, in OFDM/quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) medium access control (MAC), we have obtained that the transmission time in wireless channel decreases as the TCP packet size increases.

Cooperative relays can provide spatial diversity and improve performance of wireless communications. In this paper, we study subcarrier power allocation at the relays for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based wireless systems. For cooperative relay with amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) algorithms, we investigate the impact of power allocation to the mutual information between the source and destination. From our simulation results on word~error-rate (WER) performance, we find that the DF algorithm with power allocation provides better performance than that of AF algorithm in a single path relay network because the former is able to eliminate channel noise at each relay. For the multiple path relay network, however, the network structure is already resistant to noise and channel distortion, and AF approach is a more attractive choice due to its lower complexity.

This paper presents digital signal processor (DSP) instructions and their data processing unit (DPU) architecture for high-speed fast Fourier transforms (FFTs) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The proposed instructions jointly perform new operation flows that are more efficient than the operation flow of the multiply and accumulate (MAC) instruction on which existing DSP chips heavily depend. We further propose a DPU architecture that fully supports the instructions and show that the architecture is two times faster than existing DSP chips for FFTs. We simulated the proposed model with a Verilog HDL, performed a logic synthesis using the 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard cell library, and then verified the functions thoroughly.

An adaptive modulation scheme is presented for multiuser orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems. The aim of the scheme is to minimize the total transmit power with a constraint on the transmission rate for users, assuming knowledge of the instantaneous channel gains for all users using a combined bit-loading and subcarrier allocation algorithm. The subcarrier allocation algorithm identifies the appropriate assignment of subcarriers to the users, while the bit-loading algorithm determines the number of bits given to each subcarrier. The proposed bit-loading algorithm is derived from the geometric progression of the additional transmission power required by the subcarriers and the arithmetic-geometric means inequality. This algorithm has a simple procedure and low computational complexity. A heuristic approach is also used for the subcarrier allocation algorithm, providing a trade-off between complexity and performance. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms provide comparable performance with existing algorithms with low computational cost.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)은 제 4 세대 기술로 일컬어지는 변조 방식으로 최근 유럽의 디지털 오디오 방송(DAB)과 디지털 비디오 방송(DVB)에 표준으로 사용되고 있으며, IEEE 802.11a 무선 LAN 및 디지털 가입자라인 xDSL 에서도 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 OFDM 모뎀 구현의 핵심이라고 할 수 있는 64-포인트 FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) 프로세서의 여러 가지 구조를 분석하고, 이들과 비교하여 성능 대 면적 비를 획기적으로 향상시킨 새로운 FFT 프로세서인 Radix-4,2 SIC (Single Instruction Computer) 구조를 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 SIC 구조는 버터플라이 연산의 재사용을 극대화하였으며 Radix-4,2 알고리즘을 사용함으로써 FFT 프로세서에서 면적의 80%를 차지하는 복소곱셈기의 수를 감소시켜 크기를 획기적으로 줄인 결과를 보여 준다.

One drawback of polar codes is that they are not universal, that is, to achieve optimal performance, different polar codes are required for different kinds of channel. This paper proposes a polar code construction scheme for Nakagami-m fading channel. The scheme fully considers the characteristics of Nakagami-m fading channel, and uses the optimized Bhattacharyya parameter bounds. The constructed code is applied to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system over Nakagami-m fading channel to prove the performance of polar code. Simulation result shows the proposed codes can get excellent bit error rate (BER) performance with successive cancellation list (SCL) decoding. For example, the designed polar code with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) aided SCL (L = 8) decoding achieves 1.1dB of gain over LDPC at average BER about 10^-5 under 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (4QAM) while the code length is 1024, rate is 0.5.

As the demand of the high-speed transmission between fast moving mobile objects is increasing, more ideas are coming out to improve the channel distortion for such cases. WOFDM(Wavelet-based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is the most brilliant one among them, which combines the advantages of wavelet transform technique and OFDM technique, and it has been implemented into the PLC (Power Line communication) system. In this paper, we are trying to describe a comparative study on COFDM (Fourier-base OFDM) and WOFDM in the conventional T-DMB system. From the simulation results, we can see that the performances of COFDM and WOFDM are nearly same under the AWGN channel. However, WOFDM outperforms COFDM under the time-invariant Rayleigh fading channel.

본 논문에서는 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 전송방식(OFDM:Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)에서 비트 오류율(BER)과 시스템에서 사용할 수 있는 총 송신 파워가 제한된 상태에서 데이터 전송률을 최대화 시키는 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 미리 계산된 비트수별 신호대잡음비 임계값(threshold)과 부반송파의 신호대잡음비를 비교한 후 부반송파별 송신 파워를 최적화 시켜 비트를 할당한다. 이 기법은 송신 파워 및 비트를 할당하는 최적의 기법이라고 알려진 Hughes­Hartogs 기법과 거의 동일한 데이터 전송률을 가질 수 있으면서, 부반송파의 송신 파워 및 비트수를 할당하기 위해 필요한 반복작업을 줄일 수 있다.

This letter addresses the superimposed pilot aided multiuser channel estimation for the uplinks of multi-input multi-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems. To mitigate the embedded-data effects on the performance of channel estimation, a novel combining algorithm is proposed. Optimal pilot symbols are developed with respect to the least square channel estimate's mean square error. The averaged sum-capacity lower bound is derived and simulated. Simulation results show that on a low signal-to-noise ratio regime, our proposed scheme achieves better performance and higher capacity than the conventional pilot aided approach.

In this work, we first present our study on the decoding schemes for space-time block code as well as our comments on their complexity. Then, we propose a new modified complex sphere decoding scheme, which has lower computational load than that of conventional complex sphere decoders. In the proposed scheme, the boundary for searching is defined by the intersection of an approximate polygon of searching circle and disk of lattice constellation. Therefore, the proposed scheme can reduce the searching boundary and it can avoid missing searching points as well. The performance of the proposed scheme, which is verified by computer simulations, consolidates our scheme.
