In this paper, we propose a new assisted global positioning system (A-GPS) using terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB) data services. Because of the weak signal strength from GPS satellite and the signal blockage, it is difficult for the telematics terminal to determine the position in urban area. Proposed A-GPS system calculates pseudo range (PR) from timing information of GPS satellites and obtains the satellite information such as ephemeris from T-DMB station to determine the current position. Compared to conventional GPS system, the proposed system has better performance in terms of the fast time to first fix (TTFF), low horizontal dilution of precision (HDOP). Experimental results show that the proposed system is a feasible and robust solution.

In this paper, we propose a low complexity multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection algorithm with adaptive interference mitigation in downlink multiuser MIMO (DL MU-MIMO) systems with quantization error of the channel state information (CSI) feedback. In DL MU-MIMO systems using the imperfect precoding matrix caused by quantization error of the CSI feedback, the station receives the desired signal as well as the residual interference signal. Therefore, a complexMIMO detection algorithm with interference mitigation is required for mitigating the residual interference. To reduce the computational complexity, we propose a MIMO detection algorithm with adaptive interference mitigation. The proposed algorithm adaptively mitigates the residual interference by using the maximum likelihood detection (MLD) error criterion (MEC). We derive a theoretical MEC by using the MLD error condition and a practical MEC by approximating the theoretical MEC. In conclusion, the proposed algorithm adaptively performs interference mitigation when satisfying the practical MEC. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the computational complexity and has the same performance, compared to the generalized sphere decoder, which always performs interference mitigation.

This paper proposes an adaptive pilot beacon equipment for mobile communication systems based on direct spread spectrum technology which generates the pilot channel for handoff between base stations by using the information acquired from the downstream wireless signal regarding the overhead channel information. Such an adaptive pilot beacon equipment will enable low power operation since among the wireless signals, only the pilot channel will be generated and transmitted. The pilot channel in the downstream link of the CDMA receiver is used to acquire time and frequency synchronization and this is used to calibrate the offset for the beacon, which implies that time synchronization using GPS is not required and any location where forward receive signal can be received can be used as the installation site. The downstream link pilot signal searching within the CDMA receiver is performed by FPGA and DSP. The FPGA is used to perform the initial synchronization for the pilot searcher and DSP is used to perform the offset correction between beacon clock and base station clock. The CDMA transmitter the adaptive pilot beacon equipment will use the timing offset information in the pilot channel acquired from the CDMA receiver and generate the downstream link pilot signal synchronized to the base station. The intermediate frequency signal is passed through the FIR filter and subsequently upconverted and amplified before being radiated through the antenna.

This paper studies the problem of precoding and post-coding design for multicell multiuser downlink transmissions in the absence of perfect channel state information (CSI). Using statistical information of imperfect CSI, an iterative multiuser multicell transceiver design is formulated by minimizing the mean squared error (MSE) cost function of signal and leakage interference under per-base station power constraint (PBPC). The convergence of the iterative precoding and postcoding algorithm is verified by analytical and empirical results. The proposed precoding and postcoding algorithm offers a low computational complexity and robustness against CSI imperfection.

Millimeter-wave networking is composed of narrow beam link. High directivity of the beam provides either advantage or disadvantage in comparison with conventional wide-lobe microwave communications. In such networks, it is very substantial that beam connecting point to point is fixed in right direction. It is major requirement in the beam network to keep the beam in best direction. In this paper, We propose the method to find a best suited direction of the antenna's beam using the Genetic Algorithm in point-to-point link. Proposed method presume that each station knows his direction $\theta$$_1$,$\theta$$_2$ at every step of Genetic Algorithm, then it can be expected that GA is possible to search the ideal solution. Intensity of the received signal is evaluated by the multiplication of lengths to the point which the lobe meets with the horizontal line.

Urban transit is a large scale complex system which combines rolling stocks, power supply, signal communications, tracks & stations. Therefore standardization is very important because it is difficult to find causes when failures or accidents occur. The standardization of urban transit increases safety and economical efficiency, and also gives passengers convenient and comfortable feeling. We, Korea Railroad Research Institute(KRRI), had finished the 1st phase study of urban transit standardization from '95 to '06. And 2nd phase study on rolling stock, information & communication, subway station has been performed from July '07. In this paper, we introduce what we study on urban transits standardization during coming 5 years. We expect our study will contribute to increase the efficiency of urban transit.

In this paper, properties of directional coupler with high directivity was investigated. The directional couler is used to check and verify the power, frequency, and antenna reflection of signal at transmission station for mobile communications. To get the high directivity in the directional coupler, directional coupler was simulated and fabricated. we obtained the directional coupler having more than 31dB directivity.

Signal-to-interference ratio (SIR)-based dynamic code allocation method to be rioritized for handoff call is proposed and evaluated in a direct sequence-code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) cellular systm. Proposed method allocates a code to a mobile terminal according to the restidual capacity computed by SIR in the base station. We consider the voice activity detection to increase the system capacity. We evaluate the performance of proposed method with computer simulation. And the handoff decision function that controls handoff of mobile terminal is interodcued. The proposed method provide much improvement in the forced termination probability and handoff call fail probability.

We propose an efficient audio transcoding algorithm that can convert audio streams from terrestrial digital television broadcasting service stations to those for terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting hand-held receivers. The proposed algorithm avoids the complicated psychoacoustic analysis by calculating the scalefactors of the bit-sliced arithmetic coding encoder directly from the signal-to-noise ratio parameters of the AC-3 decoder. The bit-allocation process is also simplified by cascading the nested distortion control loop. Through subjective evaluation, it is shown that the proposed algorithm provides comparable audio quality to tandem coding but it requires much smaller complexity.
