In this paper, the transmit antenna for the space feeder used for the phased array antennas is investigated. The multi-aperture horn antenna is proposed as the transmit antenna and the characteristics are verified with the Matlab coding, HFSS of Ansoft Corp., and MWS of CST Corp., The E-plane and H-plane beam patterns of the multi-aperture horn antenna are nearly symmetrical and the sidelobe level of the I-plane beam pattern is lower than that the of general pyramidal horn antenna. The fabricated multi-aperture horn antenna is measured using the near-field measurement system. The measured results show good agreement with the simulated ones.

본 논문에서는 레일리 페이딩 채널환경에서 폐루프 송신 안테나 다이버시티 시스템을 위한 최적의 안테나 가중치 방식을 연구한다. 평균전력 및 첨두 전력의 제한이 있는 경우에 폐루프 송신 안테나 다이버시티의 평균 비트 오류율을 최소화하는 최적의 송신 안테나 가중치를 닫힌 형식의 수학식으로 유도한다. 본 논문의 결과로부터 첨두 전력의 제한으로 인한 평균 비트 오류율 성능의 열화는 사용가능 한 평균전력이 커질수록 그리고/또는 송신 안테나 개수가 증가할수록 그 성능 열화의 정도가 더욱 커짐을 알 수 있다.

We consider transmit antenna selection combined with power allocation for quadrature spatial modulation (QSM) systems to improve the error rate performance. The Euclidean distance-based joint optimization criterion is presented for transmit antenna selection and power allocation in QSM. It requires an exhaustive search and thus high computational complexity. Thus its reduced-complexity algorithm is proposed with a strategy of decoupling, which is employed to successively find transmit antennas and power allocation factors. First, transmit antennas are selected without considering power allocation. After selecting transmit antennas, power allocation factors are determined. Simulation results demonstrate considerable performance gains with lower complexity for transmit antenna selected QSM systems with power allocation, which can be achieved with limited rate feedback.

This paper investigates the outage behavior of peak interference power limited cognitive radio (CR) networks with multiple transmit antennas. In CR-multi-input single-output (MISO) channel, the total transmit power is distributed over the transmitantennas. First, we use the orthogonal space-time codes (STC) to achieve the transmit diversity at CR-receiver (rx) and investigate the effect of the power distribution on the interference power received at the primary-receiver (P-rx). Then, we investigate the transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme in which the CR system selects the best transmit antenna and allocates all the power to the selected best antenna. Two transmit antenna selection strategies are proposed depending on if feedback channel is available or not. We derive the closed form expressions of outage probability and outage capacity of all schemes with arbitrary number of transmit-antennas. We show that the proposed schemes significantly improve the outage capacity over the single antenna systems in Rayleigh fading environment. We also show that TAS based scheme outperforms the STC based scheme when peak interference power constraint is imposed on the P-rx only if a feedback channel from CR-rx to CR-transmitter is available.

This paper applies transmit antenna selection algorithms to spatial-temporal combining-based spatial multiplexing (SM) ultra-wideband (UWB) systems. The employed criterion is based on the largest minimum output signal-to-noise ratio of the multiplexed streams. It is shown via simulations that the bit error rate (BER) performance of the SM UWB systems based on the two-dimensional Rake receiver is significantly improved by antenna diversity through transmit antenna selection on a log-normal multipath fading channel. When the transmit antenna diversity through antenna selection is exploited in the SM UWB systems, the BER performance of the spatial-temporal combining-based zero-forcing (ZF) receiver is also compared with that of the ZF detector followed by the Rake receiver.

적응형 송신 빔 성형 시스템에서 순방향 링크의 채널 특성을 기지국에 정확히 전달하는 것은 시스템 성능을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. FDD 방식 시스템의 경우 순방향 채널의 정보는 일반적으로 귀환 채널을 통해 전달되며 송신 안테나 수에 비례하여 증가하게 된다. 이 논문에서는 N개의 송신안테나를 갖는 빔 성형 시스템이 2N개의 송신 안테나 시스템으로 확장되는 반면, 귀환 채널은 귀환 전송 비트율의 제한으로 인해 기존의 N-안테나 시스템의 귀환 채널이 그대로 유지된다. 제한된 귀환 채널 정보의 사용 효율을 높여 시스템의 성능을 향상시키기 위해 적응형 송신 빔 성형 방식과 안테나 선택 다이버시티 방식을 결합한 순방향 링크 CDMA 시스템을 제안하고 모의 실험을 통해 성능을 연구한다. 제한된 귀환 채널 비트를 갖는 시스템에서, 송신 안테나 수와 안테나 선택 방식에 따른 시스템 성능을 주파수 비선택적 페이딩 채널 및 다중 경로 페이딩 채널에서 모의 실험을 통해 정량화 한다. 모의 실험 결과는 송신 안테나 선택 방식을 적용함으로써 각 안테나당 할당되는 정보 비트 수를 증가시켜 양자화로 인한 오류를 줄이고, 선택 다이버시티 이득을 얻음으로써 전체 시스템 성능이 개선됨을 보인다.

Many technologies are being studied to reduce the RCS(Radar Cross Section) of stealth aircraft. Most RCS-reduction technlogies correspond to platforms. It is important to identify factors that RCS performance through simulation analysis of aircraft Mounted equipment. In particular, there are no studies of RCS performance in the radar frequency band when antenna transmit signals are applied. In this paper, the RCS performance variation on the transmit signal on/off of antennas mounted on a stealth aircraft was verified. Antennas were selected for each frequency band and simulated analysis to the RCS performance changes during antenna transmitting signal. Finally, to verify the characteristics of the change in RCS performance, RCS test measurements on the low-profile antenna transmit signal on/off were performed. In addintion, antenna RCS test measurement was performed according to the change of transmit signal power output. As a result, it was confirmed that there is no change in RCS performance when an antenna transmit signal is applied.

In this paper, we focus on the potential of dual polarized antennas in mobile system. thus, this paper designs exact dual polarized channel with Spatial Channel Model (SCM) and investigates the performance for certain environment. Using proposed the channel model; we know estimates of the channel capacity as a function of cross polarization discrimination (XPD) and spatial fading correlation. It is important that the MIMO channel matrix consists of Kronecker product dividable spatial and polarized channel. Through the channel characteristics, we propose an algorithm for the adaptation of transmit antenna configuration to time varying propagation environments. The optimal active transmit antenna subset is determined with equal power allocated to the active transmit antennas, assuming no feedback information on types of the selected antennas. We first consider a heuristic decision strategy in which the optimal active transmit antenna subset and its system capacity are determined such that the transmission data rate is maximized among all possible types. This paper then proposes singular values decision procedure consisting of Kronecker product with spatial and polarize channel. This method of singular value decision, which the first channel environments is determined using singular values of spatial channel part which is made of environment parameters and distance between antennas. level of correlation. Then we will select antenna which have various polarization type. After spatial channel structure is decided, we contact polarization types which have considerable cases It is note that the proposed algorithms and analysis of dual polarized channel using SCM (Spatial Channel Model) optimize channel capacity and reduce the number of transmit antenna selection compare to heuristic method which has considerable 100 cases.

In this paper, the performance of precoding-aided differential spatial modulation (PDSM) systems with optimal transmit antenna subset (TAS) selection is examined analytically. The average bit error rate (ABER) performance of the optimal TAS selection-based PDSM systems using a zero-forcing (ZF) precoder is evaluated using theoretical upper bound and Monte Carlo simulations. Simulation results validate the analysis and demonstrate a performance penalty < 2.6 dB compared with precoding-aided spatial modulation (PSM) with optimal TAS selection. The performance analysis reveals a transmit diversity gain of (N_T-N_R+1) for the ZF-based PDSM (ZF-PDSM) systems that employ TAS selection with N_T transmit antennas, N_S selected transmit antennas, and N_R receive antennas. It is also shown that reducing the number of activated transmit antennas via optimal TAS selection in the ZF-PDSM systems degrades ABER performance. In addition, the impacts of channel estimation errors on the performance of the ZF-PDSM system with TAS selection are evaluated, and the performance of this system is compared with that of ZF-based PSM with TAS selection.

DSTTD(double space time transmit diversity) 시스템을 위한 새로운 안테나 선택과 뒤섞는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 안테나 뒤섞는 방법만을 이용하는 기존 DSTTD 방식과 다르게 여러 신호를 동일한 안테나로 송신하는 것을 허용한다. 이러한 기법을 통하면 기존 방법에 비해 1.8 dB 정도의 신호 대 잡음비 이득을 얻을 수 있다. 제안찬 기법의 단점으로 안테나 선택과 뒤섞는 가짓수가 단순히 뒤섞기만 수행한 가짓수에 비해 많다는 것인데 이를 성능 열화 거의 없이 여섯 가지로 줄일 수 있음을 보인다. 제안한 방식을 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 비교한 결과, 기존 DSTTD 방식뿐만 아니라 기존 시공간 블록 코드(space time block code: STBC)와 공간 다중화(spatial multiplexing) 방식보다도 우수함을 확인 할 수 있었다.
