In this paper, we propose a robust detection scheme of OSTBCs with channel estimation errors over time-selective fading channels. Channel estimation errors are inevitable over time-selective fading channels and even small channel estimation errors dramatically degrade the performance of space-time block coding schemes. Therefore, it is desired to investigate the effect of channel estimation errors on the performance of the proposed detection scheme compared with the existing detection scheme. The proposed detection scheme minimizes noise enhancement and impact of channel estimation errors which occur in an existing detection scheme. It is shown by simulations that the proposed detection scheme performs better than the existing detection scheme over time-selective fading channels.

This paper presents the performance evaluation of an adaptive QAM scheme under flat and frequency selective fading channels for indoor wireless communication systems. The QAM modulation is combined with differential encoding and the demodulation process is carried out noncoherently. The adaptation is performed by varying the modulation level of QAM, depending upon received signal strength. The adaptation mechanism allows a 2- or 3-bit increase or decrease at a time, if the channel condition is considered to be significantly good or bad. Simulation results show that the average number of bits per symbol (ABPS) for each symbol block transmitted over a flat fading channel is higher than 5.0 and the BER performance is better than 10^-4 for a SNR value higher than 30 dB. For frequency selective fading channels, an oversampling technique in the receiver was employed. The BER performance obtained for frequency selective fading channels is better than 10^-4 with a SNR value of 40 dB and ABPS is found to be approximately 5.5. Therefore, this scheme is very useful in that it provides both very high bandwidth efficiency and acceptable performance with moderate SNR values over flat and frequency selective fading channels. In addition, this scheme provides reduced receiver complexity by way of noncoherent detection.

Transmit diversity using STBC(Space Time Block Code) provides the same diversity gain as MRRC(Maximal Ratio Receiver Combining), when the fading channel is constant across two consecutive symbols. But, when the channel condition is changed for the two consecutive symbols, the transmit diversity using STBC does not offer good performance due to the large doppler shift. In this paper, we have proposed a interference cancellation scheme for performance enhancement in transmit diversity using STBC over time selective fading channel. Simulation results for various doppler shift rates are presented for the transmit diversity using the proposed scheme.

In this paper, we propose an efficient channel delay estimation method for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, especially over doubly-selective fading channels which are selective in both the symbol time domain and subcarrier frequency domain. For the doubly-selective fading channels in single frequency network (SFN), long and strong echoes exist and thus the conventional discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) based channel delay estimation system often fails to produce the exact channel delay profile. Based on the analysis of the discrete-time frequency response of the channel impulse response (CIR) coefficients in the DFT-based channel delay estimation system, we develop a method to effectively extract the true CIR from the aliased signals by employing a simple narrow-band low-pass filter (NB-LPF). The performance of the proposed system is verified using the COST207 TU6 SFN channel model.

In this paper, a method based on the turbo principle is presented which combines diversity reception, equalization, and channel decoding, to combat the high transmission losses over the frequency-selective fading channel. The simulation results show that with the method presented, the BER performance within 0.3 ㏈ from that on the AWGN channel can be obtained over the frequency-selective fading channel in the investigated scenarios.

In MC-CDMA systems effects of delay spread of the channel are reduced with increased symbol duration by simultaneously transmitting data symbols on the parallel subcarriers. However, the increased symbol duration causes the system to be more vulnerable to time selective fading. In other words, although MC-CDMA systems are robust against frequency selective fading in a multipath environment, they are sensitive to Doppler spread and hence inter-carrier interference is increased. In this paper, we investigate the effects of time selective fading characteristics of the mobile channel from the viewpoint of desired signal power to inter-carrier interference power ratio at the combiner output of the MC-CDMA receiver.

본 논문에서는 Rician Fading 환경에서의 BCH부호화 된 DS-CDMA 16 QAM 신호의 선택합성 (SC : Selective Combining) 다이버시티 수신시의 오율 성능을 해석하였다. 첫 번째로 라이시안 페이딩 환경에서의 성능을 해석하고, 두 번째로 선택합성 다이버시티 수신기법을 채용한 경우, 세 번째로 다이버시티와 BCH부호화를 함께 채용하는 경우 성능을 해석하였다. 수치해석 결과 다이버시티와 부호화기법을 함께 채용함으로서 이동 무선데이터 통신채널 환경을 극복할 수 있는 현저한 성능 개선을 보였다.

이 논문은 시간 및 주파수 선택성페이딩이 동시에 존재하는 채널에서 대역확산 주파수 도약통신시스템의 전송특성을 제시한다. 수신기는 승적합산기를 포함한 binary noncoherent matched-filter fast FH-SS시스템이다. 이 시스템에서 SNR, 채널 선택도, 전력비 등의 변동에 따른 오차확률은 데이터율을 고려하지 않고 다이버시티 개념을 사용하여 구하였으며, 오차확율에 대한 데이터를 분석한 결과 FH-SS 시스템은 시간 선택성 페이딩 채널에서 전송특성이 우수함을 나타내었다.

Most existing space-time coding (STC) schemes have been developed for flat fading channels. To obtain antenna diversity gain, they rely on channel state information (CSI) required at the receiver through channel estimation techniques. This paper proposes a new decision feedback decoding scheme for Alamouti-based space-time block coding (STBC) transmission over time-selective fading channels. In wireless channels, time-selective fading effects arise mainly due to Doppler shift and carrier frequency offset, Modelling the time-selective fading channels as the first-order Gauss-Markov processes, we use recursive algorithms such as Kalman filtering, LMS and RLS algorithms for channel tracking. The proposed scheme consists of the symbol decoding stage and channel tracking algorithms. Computer simulations confirm that the proposed scheme shows the better performance and robustness to time-selectivity.

본 논문에서는 파일럿 심벌을 이용하여 플랫 페이딩 채널에서 페이딩 정보를 예측하여 보상하는 방식인 PSAM(Pilot Symbol Assisted Modulation) 방식에 대해 주파수 선택적 Rayleigh 페이딩 채널에서 지연파의 영향을 받는 경우 발생하는 문제점 등을 분석하고 이를 개선하기 위하여 고차 PS(Pilot Symbol) QAM 채널보상 방식을 제안한다. 기존의 PSAM 방식은 지연파의 지연강도가 조금만 영향을 미치더라도 SNR(Signal-to-Noise Ratio)에 상관없이 심각한 성능저하를 보이지만 제안된 방식은 지연파의 지연강도에 영향을 받지만 안정적인 성능개선을 보인다.
