본 논문에서는 Multi-code CDMA(code division multiple access) 시스템에서 발생하는 높은 PAPR(Peak to average power ratio)을 저감하고, 신호가 HPA에서 비선형 왜곡을 감소시키기 위한 방법으로, SLM(Selected Mapping) 및 PTS(Partial Transmit Sequence) 기법과 함께 전치왜곡 기법의 혼합 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법에서 SLM 및 PTS 방법을 위해 사용된 위상 회전 정보는 별도의 채널을 통해 전송되고, 이러한 위상 회전 정보의 채널 통과에 따른 에러율은 시스템의 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 위상 회전 정보의 에러율을 고려한 이론적인 BER 수식을 제시하며, 이는 시뮬레이션을 통해 나타난 시스템의 BER 성능과 거의 같게 나타난다. 결국 PTS 및 SLM 방법을 전치왜곡기와 병행한 제안된 혼합 기법은 신호의 PAPR을 줄이고, HPA의 비선형 특성을 보상함으로써 시스템의 BER 성능을 향상시킨다.

현재 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)은 다중경로 채널 환경에서 고속 통신에 적합한 방식으로 각광을 받고 있으나, 몇 가지 단점을 지니고 있다. 단일 반송파 방식에 비해 PAR(Peak-to-Average power Ratio)이 높다는 점은 그러한 단점 가운데 하나이다. 신호의 PAR이 높을 경우 고출력 증폭기를 통과하면서 비선형 왜곡이 발생할 수 있고, 이를 방지하기 위해서는 고출력 증폭기의 선형 구간을 비효율적으로 증가시켜야 하는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 OFDM의 PAR 감소 기법중 하나의 OFDM 심벌을 나타내는 다수의 신호를 발생(Mapping)시킨 후, 그 중 가장 낮은 PAR을 갖는 신호를 선택해서 전송하는 SLM(Selected Mapping) 기법에 대한 성능을 분석한다.

This study proposes a novel, conditionally applied neural network technique to reduce the overall peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system while maintaining an acceptable bit error rate (BER) level. The main purpose of the proposed scheme is to adjust only those subcarriers whose peaks exceed a given threshold. In this respect, the developed C-ANN algorithm suppresses only the peaks of the targeted subcarriers by slightly shifting the locations of their corresponding frequency samples without affecting their phase orientations. In turn, this achieves a reasonable system performance by sustaining a tolerable BER. For practical reasons and to cover a wide range of application scenarios, the threshold for the subcarrier peaks was chosen to be proportional to the saturation level of the nonlinear power amplifier used to pass the generated OFDM blocks. Consequently, the optimal values of the factor controlling the peak threshold were obtained that satisfy both reasonable PAPR reduction and acceptable BER levels. Furthermore, the proposed system does not require a recovery process at the receiver, thus making the computational process less complex. The simulation results show that the proposed system model performed satisfactorily, attaining both low PAPR and BER for specific application settings using comparatively fewer computations.

Direct duty-ratio PWM schemes for continuous fault tolerant operation of matrix converter-fed motor drives are presented. The proposed method features simple modular modulation structure based on per output phase concept, which requires no additional modification on the normal modulation schemes for fault-tolerant applications. Realizations of fault-tolerant strategy applied to different system configurations are also treated to enhance the system flexibility. The proposed method can be effectively applied to treat the motor open phase fault and converter switching device failure. Simulation and experimental results show the feasibility and validation of the proposed strategies.

This paper considers the use of the Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) technique to reduce the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing signal in wireless communication systems. Search complexity is very high in the traditional PTS scheme because it involves an extensive random search over all combinations of allowed phase vectors, and it increases exponentially with the number of phase vectors. In this paper, a suboptimal metaheuristic algorithm for phase optimization based on an improved harmony search (IHS) is applied to explore the optimal combination of phase vectors that provides improved performance compared with existing evolutionary algorithms such as the harmony search algorithm and firefly algorithm. IHS enhances the accuracy and convergence rate of the conventional algorithms with very few parameters to adjust. Simulation results show that an improved harmony search-based PTS algorithm can achieve a significant reduction in PAPR using a simple network structure compared with conventional algorithms.

A novel peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction method is proposed for single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) signals. The proposed method deliberately distorts the amplitude values of a few of the complex modulated symbols that cause peaks beyond a predetermined threshold in the samples of the output signal. The method then marks the location indices of the distorted symbols by using a pilot block at the transmitter without transmitting side information. At the receiver, the method is then able to recover the distorted amplitude values through the marked location indices. Computer simulation results show that when compared to conventional SC-FDMA signals, the proposed scheme can effectively reduce the PAPR of SC-FDMA signals with asymptotically consistent bit error rate (BER) performance.

선택사상기법(selected mapping; SLM)은 직교 주파수 분할 다중화(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing; OFDM) 시스템에서 최대전력 대 평균전력의 비 (peak to average power ratio; PAPR)를 감소시키는 잘 알려진 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 SLM 기법의 전송 후보 시퀀스를 발생시키는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 SLM 기법은 M-ary 심볼의 위상을 회전시켜 전송 후보 시퀀스를 발생 시키지만, 제안된 방법은 원 신호의 이진 데이터에 m-시퀀스를 곱하여 전송 후보 시퀀스를 발생시킨다. 제안된 방법의 PAPR 감소 성능은 기존의 SLM에 비해 우수하였고, 모의실험 결과로부터 적은 수의 부 반송파를 사용하는 시스템에서 더 좋은 성능을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

A highly linear and efficient GaN HEMT Doherty amplifier for wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) repeaters is presented. For better performance, the adaptive gate bias control of the peaking amplifier using the power tracking circuit and the shunt capacitors is employed. The measured one-carrier WCDMA results show an adjacent channel leakage ratio of -43.2 dBc at ${\pm}2.5$-MHz offset with a power added efficiency of 40.1% at an average output power of 37 dBm, which is a 7.5 dB back-off power from the saturated output power.

We propose a new optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) scheme for reducing multiple access interference (MAI) and enhancing performance for optical subscriber access networks using modified pseudorandom noise (PN)-coded fiber Bragg gratings with bipolar OCDMA decoders. Through the bipolar OCDMA decoder and the modified PN codes, MAI among users is effectively depressed. As the data are encoded either by a unipolar signature sequence of the modified PN code or its complement according to whether the data bit is 1 or 0, the bit error ratio (BER) can be more improved with the same signal to interference plus noise ratio over the conventional on-off shift keying-based OCDMA system. We prove by numerical analysis that the BER of the proposed bipolar OCDMA system is better than the conventional unipolar OCDMA system. We also analyze the spectral power distortion effects of the broadband light source.
