본 논문에서는 새로운 staggered burst 파일렷(SBP)의 개념을 도입하여 CDMA uplink 채널 구조를 제안하였다. 즉, 데이터 채널과 병렬로 파일럿 채널을 두고 셀상의 이동체 들이 파일럿을 staggered 형태로 공유하는 구조이다. 이를 위한 recursive DBCE 알고리듬에 의한 coherent 검출 기법을 제안하고 분석하였다. 본 방법은 uplink 채널 상에서 파일럿 burst가 주기적으로 가해지므로 이전의 오동작에 대해 스스로 정상적으로 복귀되는 특정을 가지며 이로 인해 가우시언 잡음이나 도플러 전이효과에 매우 안정적으로 동작함을 입증하였다. 실험 결과에 의하면 burst 파일럿 개념을 도입함으로써 $E_{b}/N_{o}$가 0.068dB로 무시할만한 손실을 가짐을 보였다. 또한 도플러효과에 대한 실험에 있어서 이동체가 160Km/H로 주행 시 이상적인 coherent 검출 기법과 비교했을 때 required $E_{b}/N_{o}$는 2.0dB 이하로 저하되었다. 제안된 SBP 방법은 DBCE를 위한 별도의 correlator가 필요함에도 불구하고 매우 간단히 구현할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있으며 기존의 내부, 또는 외부적인 파일럿을 가진 다른 coherent 검출기에 비하여 좋은 성능을 가점을 보였다.

In this paper, we propose a codebook-based interference alignment (IA) scheme in the constant multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) interference channel especially for the uplink scenario. In our proposed scheme, we assume cooperation among base stations (BSs) through reliable backhaul links so that global channel knowledge is available for all BSs, which enables BS to compute he transmit precoder and inform its quantized index to the associated user via limited rate feedback link. We present an upper bound on the rate loss of the proposed scheme and derive the scaling law of the feedback load to maintain a constant rate loss relative to IA with perfect channel knowledge. Considering the impact of overhead due to training, cooperation, and feedback, we address the effective degrees of freedom (DOF) of the proposed scheme and derive the maximization of the effective DOF. From simulation results, we verify our analysis on the scaling law to preserve the multiplexing gain and confirm that the proposed scheme is more effective than the conventional IA scheme in terms of the effective DOF.

Single carrier-frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) has been adopted as the uplink transmission standard in fourth-generation cellular networks to facilitate power efficiency transmission in mobile stations. Because multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) is a promising technology employed to fully exploit the channel capacity in mobile radio networks, this study investigates the uplink transmission of MU-MIMO SC-FDMA systems with orthogonal space-frequency block codes (SFBCs). It is preferable to minimize the length of the cyclic prefix (CP). In this study, the chained turbo equalization technique with chained turbo estimation is employed in the designed receiver. Chained turbo estimation employs a short training sequence to improve the spectrum efficiency without compromising the estimation accuracy. In this paper, we propose a novel and spectrally efficient iterative joint-channel estimation, multiuser detection, and turbo equalization for an MU-MIMO SC-FDMA system without CP-insertion and with short TR. Some simulation examples are presented for the uplink scenario to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Base Station Cooperation (BSC) has been a promising technique for combating the Inter-Cell Interference (ICI) by exchanging information through a high-speed optical fiber back-haul to increase the diversity gain. In this paper, we propose a novel pilot symbol assisted data fusion scheme for distributed Uplink BSC (UBSC) based on Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed scheme exploits the pre-defined pilot symbols as the sample of transmitted symbols to constitute a sub-optimal Weight Calculation (WC) model. To circumvent the non-linear programming problem of the proposed sub-optimal model, DE algorithm is employed for searching the proper fusion weights. Compared with the existing equal weights based soft combining scheme, the proposed scheme can adaptively adjust the fusion weights according to the accuracy of cooperative information, which remains the relatively low computational complexity and back-haul traffic. Performance analysis and simulation results show that, the proposed scheme can significantly improve the system performance with the pilot settings of the existing standards.

This paper aims to find a suitable solution to joint allocation of sub-channel and transmit power for multiple users in an IEEE 802.16e OFDMA/TDD cellular system. We propose the FASA (Fairness insured Aggressive Sub-channel Allocation) algorithm, which is a dynamic channel allocation algorithm that considers all of the users' channel state information conditionally in order to maximize throughput while taking into account fairness. A dynamic power allocation algorithm, i.e., an improved CHC algorithm, is also proposed in combination with the FASA algorithm. It collects the extra downlink transmit power and re-allocates it to other potential users. Simulation results show that the joint allocation scheme with the improved CHC power allocation algorithm provides an additional increase of sector throughput while simultaneously enhancing fairness. Four frames of time delay for CQI feedback and scheduling are considered. Furthermore, by addressing the difference between uplink and downlink scheduling in an IEEE 802.16e OFDMA TDD system, we can employ the uplink channel information directly via channel sounding, resulting in more accurate uplink dynamic resource allocation.

In this paper, we present a distributed resource allocation algorithm for multi-cell uplink systems that increases the weighted sum of the average data rates over the entire network under the average transmit power constraint of each mobile station. For the distributed operation, we arrange each base station (BS) to allocate the resource such that its own utility gets maximized in a noncooperative way. We define the utility such that it incorporates both the weighted sum of the average rates in each cell and the induced interference to other cells, which helps to instigate implicit cooperation among the cells. Since the data rates of different cells are coupled through inter-cell interferences, the resource allocation taken by each BS evolves over iterations. We establish that the resource allocation converges to a unique fixed point under reasonable assumptions. We demonstrate through computer simulations that the proposed algorithm can improve the weighted sum of the average rates substantially without requiring any coordination among the base stations.

WiBro (Wireless Broadband Internet) system is going to be 9ot down to commercialization. The high portable internet system is able to be connected to the high-speed internet using 2.3 GHz frequency bandwidth, anytime and anywhere. An effective scheduling for UGS, rtPS, nrtPS and BE requiring different QoS, which are service types of the WiBro, is necessary to increase the efficiency of radio channels that are the limiting resource. This paper researches an uplink scheduling that plays a role in assignment for the radio channels from subscribers to base stations. The suggested scheduling provides priorities with each service type considering QoS of them but reserves some bandwidth for lower priory services. After deciding effective amount of bandwidth for reservation, we suggest analytical result on mean delayed time of packet transmission for each terminal, transmission rate for the data, and capacity for uplink. This research can be used as basic data for the standard in the high portable internet system and as data to predict the capacity of base stations.

LIT (long-term evolution) 상향링크 송신부는 소형, 저가 단말기를 구현하기 위해 낮은 PAPR을 유지하는 SC-FDMA 변조 방식을 채택하였다. 최근 LIT-A 상향링크에서는 SC-FDMA 변조방식에 MIMO 기법 중 하나인 코드북을 이용한 preceding을 적용하는 것을 논의하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 SC-FDMA에 다양한 precoding을 적용하면 PAPR이 증가할 수 있음을 보인다. 따라서 비선형 전력 증폭기를 송신부에 고려한 채널 모델에서 선부호화를 적용하면 링크레벨 성능이 감소하게 된다. 그러나 동 이득 전송 기법을 채택하면 성능 감소가 거의 없으므로, 비선형 증폭기를 고려한 성능은 다른 기법보다 매우 우수하다 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과도 이러한 성능을 보여준다.
