The 5G communication system employs the millimeter wave with the extremely high frequency. Since the high frequency signal has the strong straightness, the beamforming technology based on the multiple base stations is required for services covering wide range. The beamformer needs the angle-of-arrival(AOA) information of the signal incident to the antenna, and it is generally estimated through the high resolution AOA estimation algorithm such as Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) or Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariacne Technique (ESPRIT). Although various antenna array shapes can be employed for the beamformer, a single shape (square, circle, or hexagonal) is typically utilized. In this paper, we introduce a transmitting/receiving beamforming system based on the combined array antenna with square and circular shapes, which is proper to various frequency signals, and evaluate its performance. For evaluating the performance of the proposed beamforming system based on the combined array antenna, we implement the computer simulation employing various scenarios.

Recently, in order to improve high speed data transmission and spectral efficiency in wireless communication systems, the study on the combination OFDM and space-time coding is active. Also, a solution to improve system capacity in multiuser systems is to use adaptive antennas. In a system using STBC, the signals transmitted from two transmit antennas are superposed at the receive antenna and the interference between two transmit antennas of a user occures. Thus it is difficult to apply the conventional beamforming techniques for single antenna to the systems using space-time coding. In this Paper, we present the MMSE beanforming technique using training sequence for STBC-OFDM systems in reverse link and evaluate the performance by using various parameters in TU and HT channels.

Smart antennas will be used mon widely for the higher data rate and the larger number of users as the demand of wireless multimedia service is increased. Therefore, the BER performance is analyzed in this paper for DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA systems using smart antennas. A reverse link channel is simulated assuming the frequency selective Rayleigh fading. The simulation results are presented based on the characteristics of DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA systems according to the signal spectrum bandwidth and the method of adaptive beamforming. The BER performances of both systems are improved as the beam width of smart antennas is decreased. Also, it is shown that the performance of MC-CDMA system is much better than that of DS-CDMA system as the number of users is increased.

Adaptive arrays have been proposed as an effective means of mitigating Multiple Access Interference (MAI) and improving the performance of existing and future wireless communication systems. In this paper, we apply the analytical method proposed to analyse the theoretical Mean Bit Error Rate (BER) of an uncoded IS-95 based CDMA system with an array antenna at the BS in a Ricean fading environment. We present a modified expression for the Signal to Interference plus Noise (SINR) ratio as a function of the number of users, number of antennas and noise levels. We also verify the analytical results by means of simulations by considering different user and channel scenarios.

Beamspace transform algorithm transforms spatial-domain data - such as x, y, z dimension - into incidence-angle-domain data, which is called beamspace-domain data. The beamspace transform method is generally used in source localization and tracking, and adaptive beamforming problem. When the beamspace transform method is used in multichannel audio source separation, the inverse beamspace transform is also important because the source image have to be reconstructed. This paper studies the beamspace transform and inverse transform algorithms for multichannel audio source separation system, especially for the beamspace-domain multichannel NMF algorithm.

This paper proposes a new adaptive algorithm to cancel the acoustic feedback and noise signals in the digital hearing aids. The proposed algorithm improves its convergence performances by canceling the speech signal from the residual signal using two microphones. The feedback canceller firstly cancels the feedback signal among the mic signal, and then it is reduced the noise using the beamforming method. To verify the performances of the proposed algorithm, the simulations were carried out for some cases. As the results of simulations, it was proved that the feedback canceller and the noise canceller advance about 14.43 dB for SFR, 10.19 dB for SNR respectively during speech, in the case of using the new algorithm.

The beamforming procedure in Adaptive Array Antenna System is affected by signal degradation and data rate due to DS-CDMA characteristics. Until this time, a lot of techniques are suggested to overcome this problems. This paper shows the simulation result about the beamforming performance of symbol level system that process slow data rate, compensated signal by despreading procedure in front of beamformer, and that of chip level system that process chip level signal without it. we analysis the performance using MSE, beam pattern, scattering points of beamformer output. chip level system is superior to symbol level system in time varying channel, while the performance of them didn't have difference in static channel.

In this paper, we analyze functional requirements of the IEEE 802.22 WRAN, and propose a downlink 프레임 structure satisfying the requirements. The proposed downlink 프레임 structure maximizes e transmission efficiency by adopting the cognative radio to assign the sub-channel by reflecting the channel environment of WRAN. We also calculate the signalling overhead for both downlink and uplink, and analyze the performances of time synchronization, frequency synchronization and cell identification based on the 프리앰블 in downlink and suggest the channel estimation method tough 프리앰블 or pilot. As a final result, e stationary beamforming (SBF) algorithm with dynamic channel allocation(DCA) is proposed. The proposed OFDMA downlink 프레임 structure with channel adaptive sub-channel allocation for cognitive radio applications is verified to meet the requirements of IEEE 802.22 WRAN, by computer simulations.

GNSS receiver which uses the weak satellite signal is very vulnerable to the intentional jamming or non-intentional electromagnetic interference. One of the best method to overcome this disadvantage is to use an adaptive array antenna which has the capability of beamforming or nulling to the certain direction. In this paper, the performance of spatial adaptive null pattern control algorithm of 5 element array antenna is analyzed. A control algorithm which is designed in the 5 element array antenna is OPM(Output Power Minimization) which is eliminating the correlation characteristics between a reference antenna and the others. This algorithm can be applied effectively to the satellite navigation's CRPA because the satellite direction is not considered and GNSS signal power is below the thermal noise. The feature of the OPM algorithm is analyzed and the performance is compared with other null pattern control algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a suboptimal receiver combining adaptive array antenna and orthogonal decision-feedback detector in DS/CDMA system. Adaptive array antenna can cancel out undesired signal using beamforming scheme. However, if there are interfering signals from undesired users with the same incident angle as that of a desired user, an adaptive array antenna cannot suppress them. The proposed receiver can cancel out remaining interference from users having nearly the same beam pattern. And we employ Orthogonal Decision-Feedback Detector (ODFD) as multiuser detection. The ODFD performs as good as the decorrelating decision -feedback detector (DDD) with much less complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed system provides a significantly enhanced performance.
