This paper prolposes a VFM (Variable Fading Memory)Kalman filtering and applies it to the parameter estimation for time-varying signals. By adaptively calculating the fading memory, the proposed algorithm does not require any predetermined fading memory when estimating the time-varying signal parameter. Moreover, the proposed algorithm has faster convergence speed than fixed fading memory one in case the signal contains an impulsive outlier. The performance of parameter estimation for time-varying signal is evaluated by computer simulation for two cases, one of which is the chirp signal whose frequency varies linearly with time and the other is the chip signal with an impulsive outlier. The experimental results show that the VFM Kalman filtering estimates the parameter of the chirp signal more rapidly than the fixed fading memory one in the region of an outlier.

An alternative solution to the problem of obtaining acceptable performances on a fading channel is the diversity technique, which is widely used to combat the fading effects of time-variant channels. The symbol error probability of M-ary DPSK(MDPSK), PSK(MPSK) and QAM(MQAM) systems using 2 branches from the branch with the largest signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) at the output of L-branch selection combining(SC), i.e., SC2 in frequency- nonselective slow Nakagami fading channels with an additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) is derived theoretically. These performance evaluations allow designers to determine M-ary modulation methods for Nakagami fading channels.

The error rate eqations of digital modulated signals transmitted through the fading cdannel have been derived in the Gaussian/Impulsive noise environments Whing the derived equations for the error drobadillties of ASK, QAM, FSK, MSK, PSK, and DPSK signais, the error tate performance of digital modulation systems have been evaluated and represented in the graghes as parameters of carrier to \ulcornernoise power ratio (CNR) and fading figures The results show that in the fading environenet the error is occurred more frequently by gaussian noise in the deep fading Howerer in the shallow fading lmpulsive noise is more domiant than gaussian nosie in occurring the error

The error performance of 16 Square-QAM signal with Optimum Threshold Detection(OTD) under the consideration of AWGN and Rician fading was analyzed for various value of Rician fading depth K. And error performance of 16-QAM signal with OTD, which considered in AWGN and Rician fading, was compared with that of 16-QAM signal with OTD, which considered in Rician fading only. And BCH coding is adopted. From the results, the error perfomance evlauated by proposed OTD was superior to that of 16-QAM signal with OTD, which considered in Rician fading without AWGN, in low CNR.

Error performance of two modulation schemes of millimeter-wave over fiber (MMoF) system i.e., optical double side band (ODSB) and optical single side band (OSSB) modulations is analyzed under Rician fading. Bit error rates (BER) of two detection techniques i.e., coherent and noncoherent detection are also compared in Rician fading. In aspect of error performance, ODSB modulation scheme has better BER than OSSB modulation scheme has under Rician fading. On the other hand, OSSB modulation scheme is advantageous in case of considering high bandwidth efficiency and small power degradation. Coherent detection technique is proper in Rician fading, because coherent detection provides more SNR gain whether fading is serious or not. Noncoherent detection can be applied when we need a simple receiver structure.

This paper presents the CDMA system using the RAKE receiver over a multipath fading channel and in multi-user environments. The interference between the propagation paths in a multipath fading causes a serious degradation in the mobile communication environment. In order to derive the path inteference and reduce the fading effect, the RAKE receiver is used. In a computer simulation, the path number of a fading channel and the branch number of the RAKE receiver are modified. As a result, the CDMA system using the RAKE receiver gives a better performance than the conventional CDMA system over a multipath fading channel and in multi-user environments.

When the M-ary signal experiences the Rayleigh fading, the diversity schemes can reduce the effects of fading since the probability that all the signals components will fade simultaneously are reduced considerably. The symbol error probabilities for various M-ary signals, such as MDPSK, MPSK and MQAM, are mathematically derived for the SC-2(Selection Combining 2) demodulation system, whereby the two signals with the two largest amplitudes are coherently combined among the L branches. On the other hand, maximum ratio combining(MRC) requires the individual signals from each path to be time-aligned, cophased, optimally weighted by their own fading amplitude, and then summed. The propagation model used in this paper is the frequency-nonselective slow Rayleigh fading channel corrupted by the Additive White Gaussian Noise(AWGN). The numerical results presented in this paper are expected to provide information for the design of radio system using M-ary modulation method for above mentioned channel environment.

In this study, the performance of a 32-quadrature amplitude position modulation (QAPM) system is analyzed under a Rician fading channel condition when the maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique is used in the receiver. The fading channel is modeled as a frequency non-selective slow Rician fading channel corrupted by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). QAPM is available to improve BER performance without amplifying transmit power, and MRC diversity makes the performance improvement of QAPM system even bigger by intentionally maximizing SNR. Error performances are shown for the 32-QAPM system and a 32-phase silence shift keying (PSSK) system in order to examine the effects of fading severity, for various values of the Rician parameter, K. The dependence of error rates on MRC diversity is also analyzed. The simulation results show that the BER performance of the 32-QAPM system is better than that of the 32-PSSK system under the above mentioned conditions.
