In this paper, we propose an efficient space-time block coding (STBC) scheme in a cooperative satellite-terrestrial system. The proposed STBC scheme has code rate 1 for a 3 transmit antenna scheme. Because the channel matrix of the proposed scheme is orthogonal, we can use a simple linear decoding algorithm and also can expect improved performance over the conventional scheme. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has improved performance for bit error rates (BER) than several conventional STBC schemes. In addition, we investigate performance simulation results by power imbalance between the terrestrial repeaters and satellite.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WCDMA reverse link receiver system with closed loop fast transmit power control (TPC). For fast power control, SIR must be measured precisely. We propose a new SIR measurement algorithm having a simple structure. The proposed algorithm uses unused OVSF code for interference power evaluation. The proposed SIR measurement algorithm is compared to the conventional SIR measurement algorithm in Ref.$^{［1］}$ under closed loop fast TPC. We adopted WMSA channel estimation filter with Κ=2 for mobile radio channel estimation and considered one slot TPC delay. Extensive computer simulation results show that the proposed algorithm using unused OVSF code reduces the required Ε$_{b}$ /Ι$_{0}$ at the BER of 10$^{-3}$ up to 0.9㏈ and has an improved TPC error performance compared to the conventional algorithm.

Recently, a multi-core system is studied for single terminal's operations on various service networks for mobile systems. Therefore, it is expected that mobile systems capable of supporting WCDMA, MC-CDMA, CDMA and WiBro would be developed. Mobile systems for supporting various service networks is able to be implemented on a single chipset via SoC(System one Chip) technology, thus a noble modem design proper for SoC technology is necessary. For high speed data transmission of 4G mobile communication services, OFDM scheme has to be applied. But, an OFDM signal consists of a number of independently modulated subcarriers, and superposition of these subcarriers cause a problem that can give a large PAPR. In this paper, a noble modem design for 4G mobile communication services and PAPR reduction method for solving the PAPR problem are proposed.

This paper presents a way to maximize transmission efficiency and reception ability through transmission diversity technology, which can be adapted to wireless multimedia OFDM (orthogonal FDM) system. The presented method gives a comparative analysis between a case where parameter a for time average is 0.3, i with consideration of channel presumption and two types of rms delayed proliferation, which is 50nsec, 150nsec, for the performance analysis of STTC (Space-Time Trellis Code) using time-space code method which is appropriate for MIMO channel, and performance, in the case, where presumed channel value from long training column section is applied to the according frame in a single frame. The result shows that BER brought SNR improvement of 1.0dB in $10^{-3}$ when a was 0.3 than using only the long training column, and shows an increasement of general performance improvement when the time average factor is used.

This paper proposes a distributed space-frequency block code (SFBC) for relay-assisted single carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). The proposed technique achieves spatial diversity gain over fast fading channels without the complexity of multiple antennas. The mobile equipment of the proposed system has a very simple transmitter structure with constant amplitude transmit sequences, which is desirable especially for uplink communications. In order to obtain spatial diversity, the transmit sequence of relay is efficiently generated in the time domain, which is equivalent to the SFBC. Further, efficient implementation of relay and destination structures is also presented. Extensive simulation results show that the proposed system significantly outperforms the distributed space-time block code (D-STBC) SC-FDE over fast fading channels.

In this paper, we discuss the design problem and the robustness of space-frequency trellis codes (SFTCs) for multiple input multiple output, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. We find that the channel constructed by the consecutive subcarriers of an OFDM block is a correlated fading channel with the regular correlation function of the number and time delay of the multipaths. By introducing the first-order auto-regressive model, we decompose the correlated fading channel into two independent components: a slow fading channel and a fast fading channel. Therefore, the design problem of SFTCs is converted into the joint design in both slow fading and fast fading channels. We present an improved design criterion for SFTCs. We also show that the SFTCs designed according to our criterion are robust against the multipath time delays. Simulation results are provided to confirm our theoretic analysis.

The vibration characteristics of post-buckled laminated composite doubly curved shells are investigated. The finite element method is used for the analysis of post-buckling and free vibration of post-buckled laminated shells. The geometric non-linear finite element model includes the general non-linear terms in the strain-displacement relationships. The shell geometry used in the present formulation is derived using an orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. Based on the principle of virtual work the non-linear finite element equations are derived. Arc-length method is implemented to capture the load-displacement equilibrium curve. The vibration characteristics of post-buckled shell are performed using tangent stiffness obtained from the converged deflection. The code is first validated and then employed to generate numerical results. Parametric studies are performed to analyze the snapping and vibration characteristics. The relationship between loads and fundamental frequencies and between loads and the corresponding displacements are determined for various parameters such as thickness ratio and shallowness.
