At coverage boundaries of cellular systems including the recent WiBro standard which operate with full frequency reuse for increased spectral efficiency, interference signals from the base stations(BS) of adjacent cells degrade the receiver performance. In this paper, a detection method for multiple-antenna mobile stations(MS) is proposed for downlink performance improvement at coverage boundaries of cellular systems. For the performance verification, we obtain the probability density function(pdf) of the effective signal-to-interference and noise ratio(SINR) according to the variation of the interference signals from adjacent cells as well as the number of MS antennas, and calculate the transmission efficiency. We also verify the performance of proposed method with simulation results, to demonstrate a significant performance improvement is achieved over the maximal ratio combining(MRC) and spatial demultiplexing(SD) methods in terms of the effective SINR and the spectral efficiency.

Recently, the UWB (ultra wide-band) wireless communication technology, which provides high data transmission and is capable of linearly trading between throughput and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), has drawn much attention for short-range wireless networks. Fully exploiting its notable features and minimizing its interference to coexisting other systems require the knowledge of SNR's at receivers In this paper, we propose an algorithm for estimating the pulse energy to noise ratio Ep/No of UWB signal with utilization of outputs from a correlator at a receiver, and evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm through computer simulation. According to simulation results, the maximum standard deviation is about 1 13 dB with a block size of 500. Except for Ep/No=O and 2 dB cases with a block size of 500, no errors greater than 3 dB were observed in all the remaining experiments. Generally speaking, it improves as the true Ep/No, increases and as the block size increases A notable feature of the proposed algorithm is that it does not reduce the effective throughput because the estimation process does not require sending additional training signal of any specific format.

This paper discusses the spectral efficiency and performance of asynchronous direct sequency spread spectrum multiple access systems strict bandwidth limitation by Nyquist filtering. The signal to noise plus interference ratio(SNIR) at the output from the correlation receiver is derived analytically taking the cross correlation characteristics of spreading sequences into account, and also an approximated SNIR of a simple form is presented for the systems employing Gold sequences. Based on the analyzed result of SNIR, bit error rate performance and spectral efficiency are also estimated. and at last, we analyzed improvement rate using RS, convolution as a method for improving functions.

The optimum weight vector is studied to remove interference and jamming signals in adaptive array antenna system. The optimum weight vector is calculated to apply a minimum variance algorithm and cost function in linearly constrained conditions, and accurately estimates target's signal. Adaptive array antenna system is the system which improves signal to noise ratio(SNR) and decreases interference and jammer power. Adaptive array antenna system delays at tap output of antenna array element. Each tap finally makes the complex signal of one in multiplier complex weight. In order to obtain optimum's weight calculation, optimum weight vector is used in this paper. After simulation, resolution is increased below $3^{\circ}$, and sidelobe is decreased about 10 dB.

We have analyzed the effect of multipath cochannel interference and Gaussian noise on binary DPSK systems used in land mobile radio communications. Considering multipath channel as non-selective Rayleigh channel, we have found a gnenral equation for bit error rates (BER) deriving the probability density function (p.d.f) of output of phase detector. The numerical results are shown in graphs and discussed as functions of carrier to noise power ratio (CNR), carrier to interferer power ratio (CIR) and correlation of signal component over the pulse length.

In this paper, we derive the outage probability of cellular mobile system with STTB(Space Time Transmitter Diversity) scheme where the received radio signals and interferers experience Rayleigh fading and AWGN. The new probability density function of L independent identically distributed interferers is derived using Laplace transforms. We express the probability of outage as a function of the average-signal to average-interference power ratio and the signal to noise ratio. In addition, the frequency reuse distance which is one of the key parameters in the design of cellular systems is analyzed.

Despite attractive advantages such as good time-frequency localization and improved spectral efficiency, filter bank multicarrier with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (FBMC/OQAM) suffers from multipath fading. In highly frequency-selective channels, the effect of multipath interference can significantly distort the FBMC/OQAM signal due to the absence of cyclic prefix. To resolve the problem of the multipath interference in FBMC/OQAM, this paper proposes applying an antenna array that provides well shaped beam pattern for each multipath. To evaluate the performance of the proposed array system, various computer simulations have been conducted. The accuracy of direction of arrival estimation is demonstrated through spatial spectrum for a different number of antennas in a sub-array. The performance improvement is presented in terms of bit error rate. We found that the proposed array system mitigate the multipath interferences in Extended Typical Urban model with 12 antennas in a sub-array. Moreover, as the number of antennas in a sub-array increases, the system provides a signal-to-noise ratio gain.

In this paper, we consider the performance improvement that can be obtained with interference alignment (IA) technique applied to 802.11ac based multi-BSS WiFi service. To this end, we developed a system simulator consisting of a link-level PHY simulator, based on 802.11ac specification, and multi-BSS proportional-fair scheduler. Specifically, assuming perfect channel side information and synchronization of signals from multiple APs, we used a SLNR based interference alignment algorithm proposed in [13] and compared its performance with that of multiuser beamforming based time-sharing system. The performance was evaluated in terms of average throughput per BSS and 5% worst user throughput. The results show that 70 to 100% throughput gain can be obtained in this ideal scenario.

In this paper, we reduced the optical noise interference using the ASK modulation with optoelectronic feedback in a wireless optical system in which a lighting LED is used as a light source. The carrier frequency of 70 kHz was generated internally by the oscillation in the optoelectronic feedback circuit, and the output light was ASK modulated at a data rate of 9.6 kbps by opening and shortening the feedback loop with the input signal. In an environment with adjacent noise lights, the ASK modulation with optoelectronic feedback improved the signal to noise ratio by about 25 dB.

When the eigenvalues of the input covariance matrix of an array system spread by orders of magnitude, conventional adaptive arrays can't remove all the interference signals effectively In this paper, an Applebaum array adopting an adaptive gain controller (AGC) in the feedback loop of the array is proposed When eigenvalue spreaded interferences are incident to an array, a high power interference is removed easily in several iterations while a relative low power interference which is a cause of eigenvalue spread is still remained In the array output After some initial iterations, the proposed array increases the correlation between the low power interference and the array output by amplifying the output signal of the array As a result, the weights vector adapts to the direction of the low power interference as well as that of the high power interference Computer simulation results show that the proposed array gives high output signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and a fast convergence speed.
