Conventional frequency domain equalization (FDE) schemes were originally devised for quasi-static channels. Thus, such equalization schemes could suffer from significant performance degradation in fast-fading channels. This paper proposes a frequency domain equalization algorithm to mitigate the effect of fast time-varying fading. First, a mathematical expression is derived to quantify the total interference resulting from the time variation of the channel. Then, the proposed approach attempts to eliminate the effect of time-variations of the channel. This cancellation allows efficient use of the classical FDE structures in fast time-varying fading environments, although they are built upon the quasi-static channel model. Simulation results of bit-error-rate performance are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Independent component analysis (ICA) is a signal processing technique used for un-mixing of the mixed recorded signals. In wireless communication, ICA is mainly used in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. Most of the existing work regarding the ICA applications in MIMO systems assumed static or quasi static wireless channels. Performance of the ICA algorithms degrades in case of time varying wireless channels and is further degraded if the data block lengths are reduced to get the quasi stationarity. In this paper, we propose an ICA based MIMO transceiver that performs well in time varying wireless channels, even for smaller data blocks. Simulation is performed over quadrature amplitude modulated (QAM) signals. Results show that the proposed transceiver system outperforms the existing MIMO system utilizing the FastICA and the OBAICA algorithms in both the transceiver systems for time varying wireless channels. Performance improvement is observed for different data blocks lengths and signal to noise ratios (SNRs).

Recurrent neural networks have been successfully applied to communications channel equalization. Major disadvantages of gradient-based learning algorithms commonly employed to train recurrent neural networks are slow convergence rates and long training sequences required for satisfactory performance. In a high-speed communications system, fast convergence speed and short training symbols are essential. We propose decision feedback equalizers using a recurrent neural network trained with Kalman filtering algorithms. The main features of the proposed recurrent neural equalizers, utilizing extended Kalman filter (EKF) and unscented Kalman filter (UKF), are fast convergence rates and good performance using relatively short training symbols. Experimental results for two time-varying channels are presented to evaluate the performance of the proposed approaches over a conventional recurrent neural equalizer.

In this paper, we propose a time-varying modified minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) detector for the detection of higher data rate signals in a multirate asynchronous code-division multiple-access (CDMA) system which is signaled in a fast Rayleigh fading channel. The interference viewed by a higher data rate symbol will be periodic due to the presence of a lower data rate symbol which spans multiple higher data rate symbols. The detection is carried out on the basis of a modified MMSE criterion which incorporates differential detection and the ratio of channel coefficients in two consecutive observation intervals inherently compensating the fast variation of the channel due to fading. The numerical results obtained by the MMSE detector with time-varying detection show around 3 dB (M=2) and 6 dB (M=4) performance improvement at a BER of $10^{-3}$ in the AWGN channel, while introducing more computational complexity than the MMSE detector without time-varying detection. At a higher $E_b/N_0$, the proposed scheme can achieve a BER of approximately $10^{-3}$ in the presence of fast channel variation which is an improvement over other schemes.

본 논문에서는 비 샘플간격을 갖는 빠른 시변채널에서 OFDM 시스템의 위한 채널 추정 기법과 최적 보간기 대신 선형 보간기를 사용한 채널 추정기법이 제안되었다. 제안된 채널 추정기는 비 샘플간격을 갖는 채널의 기존의 채널 추정기가 활용하지 못했던 주파수 상관관계를 이용한 2-D 보간기법을 적용하여 채널의 추정의 정확도를 향상시켜 샘플 간격 채널 뿐만 아니라 실제 채널과 유시한 비 샘플간격 채널에도 적용이 가능하다. 또한 기존의 채널 추정기와 같은 복잡도를 갖는 경우에도 기존의 채널추정기의 성능을 능가함을 모의 실험을 통해 보여졌다. 또한 시간에 따른 채널의 변화가 적을 경우 도플러와 같은 시간변화에 대한 정보를 사용하지 않는 선형 보간기가 최적 보간를 대체하여도 성능 열화가 적음을 실험을 통해서 보였다. 따라서 제안된 채널 추정기는 비 샘플 간격을 갖는 빠른 시변채널에서 OFDM의 성능을 향상시키는데 도움을 줄 수 있다.

Differential detection schemes do not require any channel estimation, which can be employed under user mobility with low computational complexity. In this work, a soft-input soft-output (SISO) differential detection algorithm is proposed for amplify-and-forward (AF) over time-varying relaying channels based cooperative communications system. Furthermore, maximum-likelihood (ML) detector for M-ary differential Phase-shift keying (DPSK) is derived to calculate a posteriori probabilities (APP) of information bits. In addition, when the SISO is exploited in conjunction with channel decoding, iterative detection and decoding approach by exchanging extrinsic information with outer code is obtained. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed non-coherent approach improves detection performance significantly. In particular, the system can obtain greater performance gain under fast-fading channels.

A practical iterative channel estimation technique is proposed for the multiple-input-multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system in the high-speed mobile environment, such as high speed railway scenario. In the iterative algorithm, the Kalman filter and data detection are jointed to estimate the time-varying channel, where the detection error is considered as part of the noise in the Kalman recursion in each iteration to reduce the effect of the detection error propagation. Moreover, the employed Kalman filter is from the canonical state space model, which does not include the parameters of the autoregressive (AR) model, so the proposed method does not need to estimate the parameters of AR model, whose accuracy affects the convergence speed. Simulation results show that the proposed method is robust to the fast time-varying channel, and it can obtain more gains compared with the available methods.

본 논문에서는 고속 시변 채널 OFDM을 위한 저복잡도 LS(Least Squares) 채널 예측의 성능 개선 방안을 제안한다. 저복잡도 LS 채널 예측을 위해 사용하는 CE-BEM(Complex Exponential-Basis Expansion Model) 채널 모델의 경우 채널 모델 자체의 문제점으로 인하여 채널 예측 성능 저하가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 우선 시간 영역 윈도우를 이용하여 데이터 심볼에 의한 ICI(Interchannel Interference)의 영향을 제거한다. LS 채널 예측 결과에서 샘플을 취하여 윈도우의 영향을 제거한 후 특성이 채널 변화의 표현에 적합한 DPSS(Discrete Prolate Spheroidal Sequences)를 기저함수(basis function)로 하는 보간 (interpolation) 방식으로 채널 응답을 복원하여 CE-BEM의 문제점을 해결한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통한 성능 확인 결과 제안된 채널 예측 방식은 기존의 방식과 비교하여 특히 고속 시변 채널에서 우수한 성능 개선 효과를 보여주며, 선택된 기저함수의 형태뿐만 아니라 기저함수의 개수의 설정이 성능을 크게 좌우하는 또 다른 요소임을 확인하였다.
