In the future, satellite communication systems, such as ISDB in Japan and DVB in Europe, are required to support higher transmission date rate for providing multimedia services including HDTV, high rate data communication etc. Considering the effectiveness of OFDM technique in efficient usage of frequency bandwidth and its robustness to the multi-path fading, several OFDM based standards have been proposed for satellite communication. However, the problem of high Peak to Average Power Ratio is one of the main obstacles for the implementation of OFDM based system. Many PAPR reduction schemes have been proposed for OFDM systems. Among these, the partial transmit sequences (PTS) is attractive as they obtain better PAPR property by modifying OFDM signals without distortion. In this paper, considering the complexity issue, we present a simplified minimum maximum (minimax) criterion and Sub-Optimal PTS algorithm to optimize the phase factor. This algorithm can be dynamically made tradeoff`f between performance and complexity on demand. In addition, we integrate guided scrambling (GS) with this method. Simulation in multiple antenna based OFDM system proves that the proposed Hybrid schemes can get much more PAPR reduction and do not require transmission of side information (SI). Thus it is helpful when implementing OFDM technique in satellite communication system.

Since space time block code (STBC) technique of a transmission diversity technique was introduced, multiple input multiple output techniques using transmission diversity at the basestation for improving transmission data rate, have been studied extensively. Multiplexed STBC OFDM technique uses multiple groups of two transmit antennas and suppresses the interference signals of other STBC OFDM groups at the receivers. In this paper, I propose a new method of iterative decoding and maximal ratio receive combining technique for multiplexed STBC OFDM systems, and simulated and showed the results in comparison with the conventional methods.

OFDM should be used for the fourth generation communication for high speed communication. Because of high spectral efficiency and high tolerance to fading channel, OFDM is applied to many high speed wire and wirless communication such as DAB(Digital Audio Broudcast), DVB(Digital Video Broadcast), IMT 2000 etc. Inter-modulation, however, is derived from PAR(Peak to Average Power Ratio) of OFDM signals. The paper describes PTS(Partial Transmit Sequence) and SLM(Select Mapping) of an existing methods which can reduce PAR. And then the document introduces the new method that is called "Combine PAR method". The method proposed in this paper is to combine PTS and SLM. As a result of the simulation, Combine PAR method is better than the existing methods.g methods.

In cellular orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) networks, co-channel interference (CCI) leads to severe degradation in the BER performance. To solve this problem, maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) CCI cancellation scheme has been proposed in the literature. MLE CCI cancellation scheme generates weighted replicas of the transmitted signals where weights represent the estimated channel transfer functions. The replica with the smallest Euclidean distance from the received signal is selected and data are detected. When the received power of the desired and interference signals are nearly the same, the BER performance is degraded. In this paper, we propose a closed-loop power control (PC) scheme capable of detecting the equal received power situation at the mobile station (MS) receiver by using the newly introduced parameter power ratio (PR). When this situation is detected, the MS sends a feedback to the desired base station (BS) which boosts the transmission power in the next frame. At cell edge where signal to interferer ratio (SIR) is considered to have average value between -5 dB and 10 dB, computer simulations show that the proposed CCI cancellation scheme has a gain of 7 dB at 28 Km/h.

In this paper, a new implementation method of OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system with an orthogonal basis matrix is developed mathematically. The basis matrix is based on the Haar basis but has an appropriate form for modulation of multiple subchannel signals of OFDM. It is verified that the new basis matrix can be expanded with a simple recursive algorithm. The order of synthesis matrix in the transmitter is increased by the factor of two with every expansion. Demodulation in the receiver is carried out by its inverse matrix, which can be generated recursively with the orthogonal basis matrix. It is shown that perfect reconstruction of original signals is possibly achieved in the proposed OFDMsystem.

Recently, in order to improve high speed data transmission and spectral efficiency in wireless communication systems, the study on the combination OFDM and space-time coding is active. Also, a solution to improve system capacity in multiuser systems is to use adaptive antennas. In a system using STBC, the signals transmitted from two transmit antennas are superposed at the receive antenna and the interference between two transmit antennas of a user occures. Thus it is difficult to apply the conventional beamforming techniques for single antenna to the systems using space-time coding. In this Paper, we present the MMSE beanforming technique using training sequence for STBC-OFDM systems in reverse link and evaluate the performance by using various parameters in TU and HT channels.

In this work, we propose an efficient selective retransmission method for multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems under orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) signaling. A typical received OFDM frame may have some symbols in error, which results in a retransmission of the entire frame. Such a retransmission is often unnecessary, and to avoid this, we propose a method to selectively retransmit symbols that correspond to poor-quality subcarriers. We use the condition numbers of the subcarrier channel matrices of the MIMO-OFDM system as a quality measure. The proposed scheme is embedded in the modulation layer and is independent of conventional hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) methods. The receiver integrates the original OFDM and the punctured retransmitted OFDM signals for more reliable detection. The targeted retransmission results in fewer negative acknowledgements from conventional HARQ algorithms, which results in increasing bandwidth and power efficiency. We investigate the efficacy of the proposed method for optimal and suboptimal receivers. The simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method on throughput for MIMO-OFDM systems.

In this paper, a new receiver is proposed for the detection of the OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) signals in the time-selective multipath fading channel. For the optimal detection, we estimate the transmitted symbols from OFDM demultiplexing signal using the LMLE(linear masimum likelihold estimation) algorithm. Also, in this paper, the lowerbound for BER(bit error rate) using Taylor series approximation is provided. If the matched filter is used for the OFDM receiver in the time-selectivemultipath fading channel, it is known that the SER(symbol error rate) is always greater than $10^{-1}$, due to the cross-talk between adjacent channels. But, the proposed receiver provides of SER with 15dB SNR. Also, it is found that for the receiver implemented using the LMLE algorithm, the performance is shown to be not affected by the increase of th enumber of subchannel and channel path.

One of the important problems of OFDM system is the large PAPR of the output signal, which can result the significant signal distortion in presence of nonlinear amplifiers. To reduce the PAPR, we use fundamentally the level clipping and propose the modified mapping/demapping method for effective reducing the PAPR of the OFDM signals with level clipping. We can significantly improve the BER performance characteristics for the OFDM system. We discussed, through extensive computer simulations, the effects of level clipping and modified mapping/demapping method on the performance of OFDM system including the trade off between bandwidth expansion and BER performance and between bandwidth efficiency and BER performance.

In this paper, we propose the transmit power controlled adaptive modulated OFDM with frequency symbol spreading and equalization(TPC-AMS/FSS-OFDM) system. In the transmitter of the TPC-AMS/FSS-OFDM, each SP transformed signal is spread by orthogonal spreading codes and combined, so the detected signals obtain the same SINR(signal interference to noise ration) for each frequency symbol spreading block. In this case, we can assign the same modulation level and transmit power for each frequency symbol spreading block. Thus, the proposed system provides the increased throughput performance with reducing the total transmit power, FBI and MLI.
