The X-band frequencies for transmitting the data from earth observation satellites are limited, so a number of satellites share the frequency bands. In order for multiple satellites to utilize same or adjacent frequency bands, International Telecommunication Union - Radiocommunication (ITU-R) limits power flux density (PFD), which overcomes the interferences among multiple satellites. However, even under the regulation, the interference effect needs to be analyzed when multiple satellites are connected to communicate with multiple ground stations (GSs) located close to each other. In this paper, the interference effect is analyzed based on signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) when two low earth orbit (LEO) satellites operating in different orbits are connected to communicate with randomly located two GSs in Korean peninsula. From the analysis results, it is confirmed that there can be interferences during 365 days operation even if the satellites meet PFD requirement, but the periods under interference effects are short and the interference can be foreseen.

In this paper, we introduce a Parallel Interference Canceller (PIC) based sorting method to improve performance in the MC-DS/CDMA environment. A conventional PIC estimates and subtracts out all of the MAI (Multiple Access Interference) for each user in parallel. The parallel process ensures the low delay for the detection of all users. Also this scheme requires more stages for having better performance. Since the performance of PIC is strongly related to the correct MAI estimation, we introduce the IC (Interference Cancellation) scheme to estimate the accurate weaker signal group than the desired signal using conventional PIC. The principle of the proposed receiver sorts in descending order by the strength of signal and subtracts the MAI of the strong interferers from the desired signal for the accurate estimate of the weaker signals. Following this, the proposed scheme cancels out the improved weaker interference from the desired signal, using the output of the pre-step. In this result, the proposed system obtains better BER performance than the conventional PIC because the accuracy of the strong signal is improved. However, a disadvantage exists in that the processing time has slightly longer delay than the PIC owing to the power sorting and the MAI estimation process. The system performance evaluates and compares other non-liner It according to the number of sub-carriers in the limited-bandwidth.

Interference reduction method of vehicle collision avoidance sensor which is used for the low speed electric vehicle has been investigated. Various methods were attempted for the vehicle collision avoidance distance sensor, which received a transmitted signal from a front driving vehicle to measure the distance between two vehicles, to avoid interference by the own transmitter signal toward the rear following vehicle. In this study, -12dB of interference cancellation ratio was realized by using the phase cancellation method to the transmitted signal from the own vehicle. Proposed phase cancellation method is regarded to have the advantage of continuous monitoring in comparison to the conventional time sharing transmitting and receiving method.

In recent years, diagnostic techniques have been investigated to detect a partial discharge(PD) in a high voltage electrical equipment. Because PD signal is very sensitive and difficult to suppress strong noises such as narrow-band radio frequency noise and random noise, the accuracy and credibility of PD measurement might be influenced by surrounding interference. Using the technique of PD detection by electromagnetic wave, we have studied the characteristics of both PD and substation-in interference signal. Also, we propose a wavelet packet transform based technique to perform a feature extraction from the interference and PD signal and a classification of the extracted features. The results show that time-frequency characteristics between PD and interference can be obviously distinguished. It is helpful for the development of the insulation diagnosis technique.

In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm that assigns different number of HS-PDSCH(High Speed Primary Downlink Shared Channel) to the service user according to the received signal to interference ratio of CPICH(Common Pilot Channel) and to the traffic characteristics. Assigned channel number is determined by the signal to interference ratio level from CPICH. The highest signal to interference ratio user gets the number of channels based on the signal to interference ratio table and the remained channels are assigned to the other level users. Therefore the proposed scheme can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than existing scheduling algorithm. Simulation results show that our algorithm can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than MAX C/I algorithm and can also support the higher service throughput than proportional fairness scheme.

Together with the GPS-based approach, geo-location through mobile communication networks is a key technology for location-based service. To save the cost, most geo-location system is implemented on the existed network service, which has a cellular structure. Still, multilateration is limited in cellular structure because it is difficult for the mobile terminal to acquire distance measurements from multiple base stations. This low hearability in the receiver is caused by co-channel interference and multipath environment. Therefore, hearability enhancement is necessary for multilateration under multipath and interference environment. Former time domain based hearability methods were designed for real signals. However, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal, which its usage has been increased in digital wireless communication, is a complex signal. Thus, different hearability enhancement method is needed for OFDM signals. This paper proposes a hearability enhancement method for forward-link multilateration using OFDM signals, which employ interference cancellation and multipath mitigation. A novel interference cancellation and multipath mitigation strategy for complex-valued OFDM signals is presented that has an iterative structure. Simulation results show that the proposed multilateration method provides the user's position with an accuracy of less than 80m through the mobile WiMAX cellular network in multipath environment.

The high-altitude and mobility characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have made them a key element of new radio systems, particularly because they can exceed the limits of terrestrial networks. However, at high altitudes, UAVs can be significantly affected by intercell interference at a high line-of-sight probability. To mitigate this drawback, we propose an algorithm that selects the optimal beam to reduce interference and maximize transmission efficiency. The proposed algorithm comprises two steps: constructing a user-location-based fingerprint database according to the user types presented herein and cooperative beam selection. Simulations were conducted using cellular cooperative downlink systems for analyzing the performance of the proposed method, and the signal-to-interference-plus-noise cumulative distribution function and spectral efficiency cumulative distribution function were used as performance analysis indicators. Simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm could reduce the effect of interference and increase the performance of the desired signal. Moreover, the algorithm could efficiently reduce overheads and system cost by reducing the amount of resources required for information exchange.

As the types of radio equipment becomes more complex and diversified in various fields, radio interference occurs frequently. In the domestic situation where the territory is narrow, many systems are deployed in a specific highland with a good radio wave environment. Radar systems that transmit high power signals of the same band are sometimes deployed and operating at close distance. In this paper, the type of interference was classified for the actual radio wave interference phenomenon and appropriate signal interference parameters were derived. The power density of the interference signal was predicted using the analysis method and the effectiveness was verified through measurement. And, we propose a method to minimize interference by analyzing operating scenarios of interferer radar and victim radar.

When we measure electrical impedance of a small object, such as an electronic component, external interference or jamming signal can be rejected by shielding the object. However, when we measure impedance of a large object, such as a human body, shielding is not easy and severe error due to the external interference could be introduced. In this paper, spread spectrum technique applicable to bioimpedance measurements for rejecting external interference without shielding is introduced. The improvement in signal-to-jamming ratio by the spread spectrum technique was experimentally confirmed.
