This paper basically considers a space-division multiple-access (SDMA) systems where all nodes including the base station and mobile stations are equipped with equal number of antennas. In the SDMA system, for each transmit antenna, the user corresponding to the largest signal-to-interference-plus-noise (SINR) is selected to be supported. In this environment with the minimum mean squared error receivers, we analyze the average throughput using the previous works.

Urban transit is a large scaled complex system which combines rolling stocks, power supply, signal communications, tracks & stations etc. KRRI develops nine key devices since July, 2007 as a part of the second phase of project on the standardization of urban rail transit system, which include information-communication system, station facilities, AC-DC current electric power system in urban transit. We promote the project under two directions, i.e. user-customer oriented standardization and strategic standardization for leading technologies in urban transit. In this paper, we present development plan of these key systems in view of system life cycle based on system engineering standards KSX ISO/IEC 15288 which supplies the common fundamental frame to describe the life cycle of artificial systems. System engineering process of KSX ISO/IEC 15288 are helpful to efficiently develop those key devices, although it is difficult to apply the standard identically to the key devices with the varieties and characteristics.

As the development of renewable energy expands internationally to cope with global warming and climate change, the share of wind power generation has been gradually increasing. Although wind farms can produce electric power for 24 h a day compared to solar power plants, Their interfere with the operation of nearby radars or communication equipment must be analyzed because large-scale wind power turbines are installed. This study analyzed whether a land radio station can receive sufficient signals when a ship sailing outside the offshore wind farm transmits distress signals on the VHF band. Based on the geographic information system digital map around the target area, wind turbine CAD model, and wind farm layout, the area of interest and wind farm were modeled to enable numerical analysis. Among the high frequency analysis techniques suitable for radio wave analysis in a wide area, a dedicated program applying physical optics (PO) and shooting and bouncing ray (SBR) techniques were used. Consequently, the land radio station could receive the electromagnetic field above the threshold of the VHF receiver when a ship outside the offshore wind farm transmitted a distress communication signal. When the line of sight between the ships and the land station are completely blocked, the strength of the received field decreases, but it is still above the threshold. Hence, although a wind farm is a huge complex, a land station can receive the electromagnetic field from the ship's VHF transmitter because the wave length of the VHF band is sufficiently long to have effects such as diffraction or reflection.

This paper describes a real-time implementation of a GSM-EFR (Global System for Mobil communications Enhanced Full Rate) speech coder using OakDSP core; a 16bit fixed-point Digital Signal Processor (DSP) by DSP Group, Inc. The real-time implemented speech coder required about 24MIPS for computation and 7.06K words and 12.19K words for code and data memory, respectively. The implemented GSM-EFR speech coder passes all of test vectors provided by ETSI (European Telecommunication Standard Institute), and perceptual speech quality measurement using MNB algorithm shows that the quality of the GSM-EFR speech coder is similar to the one of 32kbps ADPCM. The real-time implemented GSM-EFR speech coder which is the highest bit-rate mode of the GSM-AMR speech coder will be used as the basic structure of the GSM-AMR speech coder which is embedded in MODEM ASIC of IMT2000 asynchronous mode mobile station.

In this paper, we propose the cooperative transmission scheme (CTS) for system throughput maximization in OFDMA based enterprise femtocell networks. In our scheme, the user equipment (UE) can receive the desired signal from serving femtocell BS (fBS) as well as an adjacent fBS. Thus, UE achieves an improved signal to interference plus and noise ratio (SINR) by the synchronized two signals. The performances of this strategy consider not only the call-level quality of service (QoS) but also the packet-level QoS. We first measure the call blocking probability and utilization for the downlink resources for various offered load in femtocell. Based on that, the outage probability and effective throughput of the system are simulated. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can reduce the outage probability for enterprise femtocell compared with conventional systems.

As the data traffic between ships and a land station continuously increase through the shipbuilding-IT convergence, several wireless communication technologies are being studied to process large amounts of data traffic. In particular, the multi-antenna system is one of the most expected technologies to provide high throughput. This paper proposes an algorithm for the base station to select the ship in consideration of channel characteristics and the transmission angle for a beam of the land station in spatial multiplexing marine communication systems. We increase the system capacity by maximizing the received signal strength of the ship using clustering characteristic of the radio channel. Also, we reduce the time to select the ship by excluding the ship with the large interference between the beams. On our computer simulation, the proposed scheme dramatically reduces the computational complexity with a little sacrifice of the throughput.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of a DS-CDMA system employing adaptive adaptive array antenna technology at base-station. For the analysis the receiving architecture of a multiple team adaptive base-station array antenna is proposed as a major system omponent, and signal to interference and noise ratio(SINR) on the proposed architecture is developed. We show that the perfomance enhancement of the CDMA system is represented as great reduction of interfreence by employing an array antenna capable of resolving the angular distribution of the mobile users as seen at the ase-station. The energy associated with each mobile or a group of mobiles is thus confined within the addressed volume, greatly reducing the amount of co-channel interference experienced from and by neighboring co-channel cells. In order to ascertain the benefits of such an antenna, a theoretical approach, which eis based on the conventional and proposed antenna systems in a typical mobile radio environment, is adopted. Finally computer simulation results show the insight into how the adaptive array antenna operates when used in conjunction with DS-CDMA and illustrate the potential benefits in the SINR point of view.

In this paper, we describe the implementation and performance of a dual-mode Software Define Radio (SDR) smart antenna base station system. SDR technology enables a communication system to be reconfigured through software downloads to the flexible hardware platform that is implemented using programmable devices such as Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), and microprocessors. The presented base station channel card comprises the physical layer (pHY) including the baseband modem as well as the beamforming module. This channel card is designed to support TDD High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) as well as Wireless Broadband Portable Internet (WiBro) utilizing the SDR technology. We first describe the operations and functions required in WiBro and TDD HSDPA. Then, we explain the channel card design procedure and hardware implementation. Finally, we evaluate WiBro and TDD HSDPA performance by simulation and actual channel-card-based processing. Our smart antenna base-station dual-mode channel card shows flexibility and tremendous performance gains in terms of communication capacity and cell coverage.

The spectral efficiency of cellular networks can be improved when proximate users engage in device-to-device (D2D) communications to communicate directly without going through a base station. However, D2D communications that are not properly designed may generate interference with existing cellular networks. In this paper, we study resource allocation and power control to minimize the probability of an outage and maximize the overall network throughput. We investigate three power control-based schemes: the Partial Co-channel based Overlap Resource Power Control (PC.OVER), Fractional Frequency Reuse based Overlap Resource Power Control (FFR.OVER) and Fractional Frequency Reuse based Adaptive Power Control (FFR.APC) and also compare their performance. In PC.OVER, a certain portion of the total bandwidth is dedicated to the D2D. The FFR.OVER and FFR.APC schemes combine the FFR techniques and the power control mechanism. In FFR, the entire frequency band is partitioned into two parts, including a central and edge sub-bands. Macrocell users (mUEs) transmit using uniform power in the inner and outer regions of the cell, and in all three schemes, the D2D receivers (D2DRs) transmit with low power when more than one D2DRs share a resource block (RB) with the macrocells. For PC.OVER and FFR.OVER, the power of the D2DRs is reduced to its minimum, and for the FFR.APC scheme, the transmission power of the D2DRs is iteratively adjusted to satisfy the signal to interference ratio (SIR) threshold. The three schemes exhibit a significant improvement in the overall system capacity as well as in the probability of a user outage when compared to a conventional scheme.

This paper proposes method that uses Time-Difference-of-Arrival(TDOA) of Forward Pilot signals from base stations(BS) arriving at a mobile station(MS) as a position location method of CDMA MS. MS searcher does acquisition of BS Pilot signals and measurement of TDOAs. In order to do it, its processing gain is very important. Proportional relationship of the gain to the signal coherent integration interval is theoretically derived and analyzed and field test is performed to show acquisition of weak Pilot signals and stable measurements of TDOA values by increasing the gain. Also, signal strength decrease exponentially by the distance it travels. Therefore, improvement of the searcher gain makes possible to acquire Pilot signals at a location far away from BS. Variation of possible position estimation area relative to the signal strength within a cell is simulated with computer. Neglecting shadow effect it indicated necessity of detecting signals below -35dB in order to cover over 90% of cell area. Thus, efforts to maximize searcher coherent integration interval in order to acquire weak Pilot signals are required for expansion of position estimation area and measurement of stable TDOA values.
