We propose a new scheme combining the calibration of the path imperfections and the compensation of HPA nonlinearity in the downlink OFDM smart antenna systems. We use a two term third-order polynomial (without second-order term) and the indirect learning architecture for calibration and compensation, to make each path of the antenna array have equal characteristics. We test our scheme with computer simulations. The result shows that, with the addition of only one third-order term, the adverse nonlinear effects as well as the those of linear imperfections can be effectively compensated.

In this paper, the performances of various channel estimation schemes for DVB-H system are investigated. The linear interpolation, the second order interpolation, the cubic spline interpolation, and the time-domain interpolation, which are used in frequency domain, are chosen as the channel estimation schemes. We derived the performances of Mean Square Error (MSE), Bit Error Rate (BER), and the complexity of calculation in Rayleigh and Rician fading channel through computer simulations. From the simulation results, the cubic spline interpolation shows the best performance under high $E_b/N_0$ environments.

There is a high demand for energy efficiency improvement of factories that make up a large part of national electric energy. Therefore, research on smart FEMS technology for monitoring, analyzing and controlling energy consumption patterns is under way, but there is still a lack of research on detailed element technology for communication and control inside the factory. In this paper, we proposed OFDM VLC system based on MODBUS protocol for communication between gateways, sensors, and devices to implement smart FEMS in indoor factory environment. Assuming a conveyor belt load control, we validated the proposed system by simulating the inverter motor control and checking the performance.

We propose a new scheme combining the compensation of HPA nonlinearity and the calibration of the path imperfections in the downlink OFDM smart antenna systems. We use a two term third-order polynomial (without second-order term) and the feedforward method for compensation and calibration to make each path of the antenna array have equal characteristics. Since the proposed scheme does not alter the base-band signal, it can be applied to the smart antenna system independently of the base-band signal processing section. The result of computer simulations shows that, with the addition of only one third-order term, the adverse nonlinear effects can be effectively compensated, and the those of linear imperfections can be calibrated as well.

Recently, consumers demand high-quality wireless multimedia services via terrestrial and satellite network. And the interest for new services to sustain its successful commercial deployment grows tremendously. So, the MIMO schemes, such as STCs, MRC, has been used for realizing high reliability. However, MIMO schemes has some limitations. MIMO scheme needs more size, cost, and hardware complexity to employ additional antennas. Moreover, sufficient spaces between antennas are required to guarantee the independence of each channel and the devices which use multiple antennas should be enlarged. A cooperative transmission technique which is detect and forward type applying virtual MIMO with STBC matrix in DVB-RCT(Digital Video Broadcasting with Return Channel via Terrestrial) system based on OFDMA is also proposed.

In this paper, we designed FFT for European DTV and implemented system with Stratix EP1S25F672C6 FPGA At the implemented FFT, we used SIC architecture. SIC architecture is composed of algorithm-specific processing element, RAM memory, registers, and a central or distributed control unit. Designed FFT was acceptable either 2K or 8K point FFT processing, and is selectable guard interval such as 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32. Consequently, it was suitable for the standard of DVB-T(Digital Terrestrial Video Transmission System) specification. It resulted in 12% of total logic gate and 53% of total memory bit in Stratix device.

Energy harvesting techniques, particularly radio frequency energy harvesting (RF-EH) techniques, which are known to provide feasible solutions to enhance the performance of energy constrained wireless communication systems, have gained increasing attention. In this paper, we consider a wireless-powered cooperative communication network (WPCCN) for transferring energy in the downlink and forwarding signals in the uplink. The objective is to maximize the average transmission rate of the system, subject to the total network power constraint. We formulate such a problem as a form of wireless energy transmission based on resource allocation that searches for the joint subcarrier pairing and the time and power allocation, and this can be solved by using a dual approach. Simulation results show that the proposed joint optimal scheme can efficiently improve system performance with an increase in the number of subcarriers and relays.

We develop an adaptive hot-spot operating scheme(AHOS) to mitigate the negative effects from the nonuniform distribution of user location and the variation in the mixture of QoS requirements in OFDMA downlink systems. The base station in a macrocell can control the operation of picocells within the cell, and turns on or off according to the changes in the estimated user outage probability and the AHOS gain parameter. With the computer simulation, the AHOS has been proved to maximize the system throughput while maintaining the QoS outage probability very low under various system scenarios.

Recently, cognitive radio attracts lots of interest to effectively utilize the limited spectral resource. In the previous researches, we proposed a method to enhance the system capacity of the overall network by using Selfish Symbiotic architecture and Non-selfish Symbiotic architecture. In this research, we further enhance the previous works to OFDM-based CR networks by using efficient subchannel allocation. The system performance is evaluated through intensive simulations with multiple primary users as well as a single primary user with different numbers of CR users.

The repeater for wireless broadband internet (Wibro) system using OFDM demands the short processing delay to eliminate inter-symbol interference resulted from the time delay greater than the guard time. Towards this, the total system delay of repeater is expected to be minimized as possible as it can without distorting signal quality. In general, the FIR-type of filter is commonly deployed as a channelization filter, but due to its large amount of coefficients for producing prerequisite filter response the excessive large time delay occurs. To withstand this problem, the paper proposes the method for designing IIR filter whose response almost identical to that of the original filter. Moreover, in order to linearize the phase response of the designed IIR filter, this paper also introduce the way of designing the all-pass filter to be cascaded works for linearizing phase response of the channelization as well as the de-channelization filter. To achieve the further improvement in linearization of the phase response and reduction of the overall complexity, this paper tries to transform the integrated IIR filter group into the structure in polyphase style. The computer simulation verifies that the integrated IIR filter group designed in this paper reveals the relatively short processing delay without harming the acceptible signal quality.
