This paper considers the evaluation of the hybrid acquistion perdformance for the pilot signal in the direct sequence code division multiple access(DS/CDMA) forward link. the hybrid acquisition is introduced by the combination of two schemes, the parallel and serial acquisions. The mean acquisition time of the proposed scheme is derived to consider both the best case(the correct code-phase offsets are included i one subset) and the worst case(the correct code-phase offsets exist at the boundary of two subsets), which are cause by the distribution of the correct code-phase offsets in the subset. Expressions for the detection, false alarm, and miss probabilities are derived for the case of multiple correct code-phase offsets and multipath Rayleigh fading channel. Numerical results present the hybrid acquistion performance with repect to design parameters such as postdetectio integration length in the search and verification modes, subset size, and number of I/Q noncoherent correlators, and compare the hybrid acquistion with the parallel acquistion in terms of the minimum acquistion time under the same hardware complexity.

Double-binary turbo code has been adopted as an error control code of various future communication systems including wireless metropolitan area networks(WMAN) due to its powerful error correction capability. One of the components affecting the performance of turbo code is internal interleaver. In 802.16 d/e system, an almost regular permutation(ARP) interleaver has been included as a part of specification, however it seems that the interleaver is not optimized in terms of decoding performance. In this paper, we propose three optimization methods for the interleaver based on spatial distance, spread and minimum distance between original and interleaved sequence. We find optimized interleaving parameters for each optimization method and evaluate the performances of the proposed methods by computer simulation under additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel. Optimized parameters can provide up to 1.0 dB power gain over the conventional method and furthermore the obtainable gain does not require any additional hardware complexity.

As a general rule, the orthogonal modulation scheme which is widely used for wireless communications is not appropriate for the high speed data transmission applications due to the low bandwidth efficiency. Therefore, to increase the bandwidth efficiency of the conventional orthogonal modulation, we propose the multi-code trans-(bi-)orthogonal modulation in this paper. It is the combined scheme of multi-code modulation and trans-orthogonal modulation. We can know that the bandwidth efficiency of the proposed scheme is better than that of the conventional orthogonal modulation. Additionally, the receiver complexity of the proposed scheme is lower than that of the conventional orthogonal modulation. The proposed scheme can be used for the physical layer of the high speed wireless digital data transmission applications such as multimedia communications system and high speed personal area networks.

In this paper, we design multiple antenna relay transmission schemes of low complexity to enhance the spatial diversity in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The relay scheme underlined, can provide space time block coding (STBC) of OFDM signals in the time domain without IFFT and FFT operations with much reduced complexity. In this paper, we modify the conventional low-complexity STBC-OFDM relaying scheme to be compatible to the existing OFDM systems. In addition, we extend the proposed scheme for multiple antenna relays and provide performance enhancement strategies according to the channel quality information available at the relay. The proposed scheme is shown to improve the diversity and thereby to reduce the outage probability and coded bit error rate. Therefore, the proposed scheme will be promising for service quality improvement or coverage extension based on OFDM like wireless LANs and maritime communications.

In this paper, we first review LDPC codes in general and a belief propagation algorithm that works in logarithm domain. LDPC codes, which is chosen 802.11n for wireless local access network(WLAN) standard are required a large number of computation due to large size of coded block and iteration. Therefore, we presented three kinds of low computational algorithm for LDPC codes. First, sequential decoding with partial group is proposed. It has same H/W complexity, and fewer number of iteration's are required at same performance in comparison with conventional decoder algorithm. Secondly, we have apply early stop algorithm. This method is reduced number of unnecessary iteration. Third, early detection method for reducing the computational complexity is proposed. Using a confidence criterion, some bit nodes and check node edges are detected early on during decoding. Through the simulation, we knew that the iteration number are reduced by half using subset algorithm and early stop algorithm is reduced more than one iteration and computational complexity of early detected method is about 30% offs in case of check node update, 94% offs in case of check node update compared to conventional scheme.

New decoding algorithm of double-error-correction Reed-Solmon codes over GF(2$^{8}$) for optical compact disks is proposed and decoding algorithm of RS codes with triple-error-correcting capability is presented in this paper. First of all. efficient algorithms for estimating the number of errors in the received code words are presented. The most complex circuits in the RS decoder are parts for soving the error-location numbers from error-location polynomial, so the complexity of those circuits has a great influence on overall decoder complexity. One of the most known algorithm for searching the error-location number is Chien's method, in which all the elements of GF(2$^{m}$) are substituted into the error-location polynomial and the error-location number can be found as the elements satisfying the error-location polynomial. But Chien's scheme needs another 1 frame delay in the decoder, which reduces decoding speed as well as require more stroage circuits for the received ocode symbols. The ther is Polkinghorn method, in which the roots can be resolved directly by solving the error-location polynomial. Bur this method needs additional ROM (readonly memory) for storing tthe roots of the all possible coefficients of error-location polynomial or much more complex cicuit. Simple, efficient, and high speed method for solving the error-location number and decoding algorithm of double-error correction RS codes which reudce considerably the complexity of decoder are proposed by using Hilbert theorems in this paper. And the performance of the proposed decoding algorithm is compared with that of conventional decoding algorithms. As a result of comparison, the proposed decoding algorithm is superior to the conventional decoding algorithm with respect to decoding delay and decoder complexity. And decoding algorithm of RS codes with triple-error-correcting capability is presented, which is suitable for error-correction in digital audio tape, also.

One of various low-density parity-check(LDPC) codes that has been adopted in many communication standards due to its error correction ability is a quasi-cyclic LDPC(QC-LDPC) code, which leads to comparable decoder complexity. One of the main blocks in the QC-LCDC code decoder is a multi-size circular shifter(MSCS) that can perform various size rotation. The MSCS can be implemented with many structures, one of which is based on Banes network. The Benes network structure can perform the normal MSCS operation efficiently, but it cannot use the properties coming from specifications like rotation sizes. This paper proposesd a scheme where the Benes network structure can use the rotation size property with the modification of the control signal generation. The proposed scheme is applied to the MSCS of IEEE 802.16e WiMAX QC-LDPC decoder to reduce the number of MUXes and the critical path delay.

Recently, DVC (Distributed Video Coding) techniques are drawing a lot of interests as one of the future research works to achieve low complexity encoding in various applications. But, due to the limited computational complexity, the performances of DVC algorithms are inferior to those of conventional international standard video coders, which use zig-zag scan, run length code, entropy code and skipped macroblock. In this paper, in order to overcome the performance limit of the DVC system, the distortion for every block is estimated when side information is found at the decoder and then we propose a new selective block encoding scheme which provides the encoder side with the motion information for the highly distorted blocks and then allows the sender to encode the motion compensated frame difference signal. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the coding efficiency of the proposed scheme reaches almost that of the conventional inter-frame coding scheme.

For synchronous direct sequence-code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems, the authors propose an adaptive radial basis function (RBF) receiver with suboptimal structure that reduces not only the complexity with regard to the number of centers but also the quantity of instructions required per one bit reception. The proposed receiver is constructed with parallel RBF networks. Each RBF network has the same procedure as the conventional RBF receiver. The performance of each RBF network is affected by interferences which are assigned to the other RBF networks because neither RBF network uses the full user set. To combat these interferences, the partial IC technique is employed. Monte Carlo simulations over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels confirm that the proposed receiver with its reduced complexity is able to obtain near-optimum performance. Moreover, the proposed receiver is able to properly cope with a various environment.

Noncoherent receivers are favored for block-code-modulated ultrawideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) systems because of their low implementation complexity compared with coherent rake receivers. However, existing noncoherent schemes, such as transmitted reference (TR) systems and averaged differential receivers (ADR), suffer from performance degradation and energy efficiency loss. Codeword matching and signal aggregation (CMSA) is a low complexity noncoherent receiver for UWB-IR. As the frame/symbol duration is shortened to boost data rate, interframe interference (IFI) or intersymbol interference (ISI) occurs and degrades the detection performance of CMSA. In this paper, block coded correlator which consists of the delay components and the reference signal is proposed to improve the performance of the receiver. Simulation results show that the proposed system leads to the better performance compared to the conventional CMSA receiver.
