In TETRA(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio) standard, TMO(Trunked Mode Operation) communicates with the UE through the base station and it has a higher priority than DMO(Direct Mode Operation) which communicates with UE directly for channel allocation. As a result, the UE needs an algorithm which restricts the frequency allocation by TMO so that DMO can have a successful communication within the network. However, the TETRA DMO standard does not consider this issue. In this paper, we propose an active DMO channel selection algorithm which allocates a channel based on some additional information such as channel usage state of TMO and channel utilization of DMO. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing DMO channel allocation scheme in terms of the transmission efficiency.

TETRA(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio) provide specialized disaster radio communication services as a standard European for digital TRS(Trunked Radio System). Especially, DMO(Direct Mode Operation) feature is used effectively in the radio shadow areas which base station does not propagate radio signal because it can communicate directly with terminal to terminal without base station's relay function. However, to effectively used DMO feature, radio coverage prediction information should be provided to users. Therefore in this paper, we were calculated link budget of TETRA DMO terminals which were distributing and operating in the country and then predicted reaching distance about radio propagation to be applied with path loss model.

In this paper, we propose a new multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channel modeling method for mobile-to-mobile (M2M) communications based on IEEE 802.16n. To reflect the mobilities at the transmitter and the receiver, we propose a new channel model by invoking the geometrical two-ring scattering model and modifying the conventional IEEE 802.16m fixed-to-mobile (F2M) channel model considering M2M communication environments. Through computer simulations, we analyze the statistical properties of proposed channel model in terms of the time correlation and the spatial correlation. Finally, the performance of the system using the proposed M2M channel model is compared with that using the conventional 802.16m F2M channel model by link level simulations.
