CDD(Cyclic Delay Diversity)는 다중 전송 안테나를 사용하는 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서 간단히 전송 다이버시티를 얻을 수 있는 기법이다. 그러나 CDD 안테나가 적용된 OFDM 시스템에서 형성되는 채널의 주파수 선택적 특성은 정수배 주파수 옵셋(Integer Frequency Offset)과 FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) 이후의 동기화 기법들의 성능 감쇄를 발생시킨다. 본 논문은 CDD를 갖는 OFDM 기반의 DRM+ 시스템을 위한 향상된 정수배 주파수 옵셋 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법에서는 채널의 주파수 특성이 동일한 파일롯 부분 집합을 선택함으로써 CDD에 형성되는 채널의 주파수 선택적 특성에 의한 정수배 주파수 옵셋 추정의 열화 성능을 감소시킨다. 모의실험 결과를 통해 제안된 기법의 정수배 주파수 옵셋 추정 성능이 기존 기법에 비해 향상됨을 보인다.

This paper presents a new and robust technique for a coarse frequency offset estimation in OFDM systems. As an evaluation of the proposed algorithm, we apply it to Eureka 147 DAB system. The proposed coarse frequency offset estimation algorithm is based on the differential detection technique between adjacent subcarriers to eliminate the phase shift effects of symbol timing offset and fractional frequency offset. A coarse frequency offset is determined from the correlation output between a received interarrier differential phase reference symbol and several locally generated but frequency-shifted intercarrier differential phase reference symbols. The performance of our estimation algorithm is evaluated by means of computer simulation and is compared with those of previous proposed algorithms for DAB transmission modes I, II, III, and IV. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm generates extremely accurate estimates with low complexity irrespective of the symbol timing offset.

본 논문에서는 고조파 소음을 내는 시스템의 기본 주파수 추정을 통한 새로운 피드백 능동소음제어 방법을 제안한다. 기준신호를 측정하기 어려운 상황에서 종래의 다중 정현파 소음의 능동제어 방법은 기준신호를 측정하는 대신 추정된 주파수를 이용하여 기준신호를 만들어낸다.$^{(4)}$ 그러나 맥놀이현상(beating phenomenon)이 존재할 때는 순간적으로 특정 주파수 성분이 사라지게 되므로 적응 주파수 추정이 어렵게 되어 맥놀이현상에 의한 주파수 추정에서의 혼돈은 만들어진 기준신호를 쓸모없게 만든다. 제안된 알고리즘은 두 가지 부분으로 구성된다. 첫째는 기본주파수 추정을 이용한 기준신호 발생기이고 둘째는 기존의 피드포워드 제어 부분이다. 제안된 결정 규칙을 이용한 기본주파수 추정알고리즘은 맥놀이현상에 둔감할 뿐 아니라 기존의 직렬형 적응노치필터 방법에 비해 좋은 추종성능과 적은 주파수 추정 오차의 분산을 갖는다.$^{(4)}$ 더욱이 신호대잡음비가 좋지 않아 기존의 주파수 추정방법으로는 추정될 수 없는 주파수 성분가지 제어가 가능하다. 제안된 능동소음제어 방법의 성능을 검증하기 위해서 실측한 선박의 객실 소음과 자동차의 시변하는 엔진부밍소음에 대해서 모의 실험을 수행한다.

본 논문은 long-term evolution (LTE) 시스템과 같이 하향링크에서 orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) 방식을 이용하고 상향링크에서 single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) 방식을 이용하는 대역 내 전이중 셀룰러 시스템을 위한 반복적인 자기간섭 채널 추정 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기지국이 알고 있는 하향링크 신호와 상향링크 파일럿 신호를 이용하여 대략적인 자기간섭 채널 추정치를 획득한 후, 이것에 주파수 영역에서의 평균화와 시간 영역에서의 채널 절단을 순차적으로 적용하여 채널 추정치를 정교하게 만든다. 또한 이 방법은 이러한 추정 절차를 반복적으로 수행함으로써 채널 추정치의 정확도를 더욱 향상시키며 자기간섭 채널을 획득하기 위해 별도의 무선자원을 전혀 요구하지 않는다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안 방법이 정확한 자기간섭 채널 길이에 대한 정보 없이도 자기간섭 채널 추정 성능을 크게 향상하여 자기간섭이 완벽히 제거된 경우에 매우 근접한 상향링크 채널 추정 성능과 SINR 성능을 달성함을 보인다.

We apply the Bayesian matching pursuit (BMP) algorithm to the estimation of time-frequency selective channels in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. By exploiting prior statistics and sparse characteristics of propagation channels, the Bayesian method provides a more accurate and efficient detection of the channel status information (CSI) than do conventional sparse channel estimation methods that are based on compressive sensing (CS) technologies. Using a reasonable approximation of the system model and a skillfully designed pilot arrangement, the proposed estimation scheme is able to address the Doppler-induced inter-carrier interference (ICI) with a relatively low complexity. Moreover, to further reduce the computational cost of the channel estimation, we make some modifications to the BMP algorithm. The modified algorithm can make good use of the group-sparse structure of doubly selective channels and thus reconstruct the CSI more efficiently than does the original BMP algorithm, which treats the sparse signals in the conventional manner and ignores the specific structure of their sparsity patterns. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed Bayesian estimation has a good performance over rapidly time-varying channels.

Even though generalized frequency division multiplexing is an alternative waveform method expected to replace the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing in the future, its implementation must alleviate channel effects. Least-squares (LS), a low-complexity channel estimation technique, could be improved by using the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) without increasing complexity. Unlike the usage of the LS method, the DFT-based method requires the receiver to know the channel impulse response (CIR) length, which is unknown. This study introduces a simple, yet effective, CIR length estimator by utilizing LS estimation. As the cyclic prefix (CP) length is commonly set to be longer than the CIR length, it is possible to search through the first samples if CP is larger than a threshold set using the remaining samples. An adaptive scale is also designed to lower the error probability of the estimation, and a simple signal-to-interference-noise ratio estimation is also proposed by utilizing a sparse preamble to support the use of the scale. A software simulation is used to show the ability of the proposed system to estimate the CIR length. Due to shorter CIR length of rural area, the performance is slightly poorer compared to urban environment. Nevertheless, satisfactory performance is shown for both environments.

This paper proposes a method for estimating the expected frequency of voltage swells caused by asymmetrical faults in a power system. Although voltage swell is less common than voltage sag, repeated swells can have severe destructive impact on sensitive equipment. It is essential to understand system performance related to voltage swells for finding optimal countermeasures. An expected swell frequency at a sensitive load terminal can be estimated based on the concept of an area of vulnerability (AOV) and long-term system fault data. This paper describes an effective method for calculating an AOV to voltage swells. Interval estimation for an expected swell frequency is also presented for effective understanding of system performance. The proposed method provides long-term performance evaluation of the frequency and degree of voltage swell occurrences.

In this paper, we propose a new frequency offset estimation algorithm for DBO-CSS which is a standard for wireless personal area network (WPAN). In DBO-CSS, there can be several integer multiples of $2{\pi}$ in the phase rotation caused by the frequency offset because of the long time difference between the samples of differential relation and the high permissible frequency offset of the crystal oscillators between the transmitter and the receiver. In this paper, we propose an estimation algorithm by using the relationships of each sub-chirp signals to find the integer part without phase ambiguity.

As OFDM-based systems exhibits robustness over wireless channel, it is possible to consider them the next generation of the wireless communications including the mobile communications. However, there is a critical point that OFDM-based systems can receive the distorted signal due to the frequency-offset. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately estimate the frequency-offset for OFDM-based systems to be adopted as the next wireless communication systems. In this paper, the efficient frequency-offset estimation scheme based on MUSIC is presented in 802,1la WLAN systems. As shown in the simulation result, this scheme can improve and optimize the estimation performance.

Several experiments were carried out to analyze the impact of the modernized Global Positioning System (GPS) L2C signal on pseudorange-based point positioning. Three dual-frequency positioning algorithms, ionosphere-free linear combination, ionospheric error estimation, and simple integration, were used, and the results were compared with those of Standard Point Positioning (SPP). An analysis was conducted to determine the characteristics of each dual-frequency positioning method, the impact of the magnitude of ionospheric error, and receiver grade. Ionosphere-free and ionospheric error estimation methods can provide improved positioning accuracy relative to SPP because they are able to significantly reduce the ionospheric error. However, this result was possible only when the ionospheric error reduction effect was greater than the disadvantage of these dual-frequency positioning algorithms such as the increment of multipath and noise, impact of uncertainty of unknown parameter estimation. The RMSE of the simple integration algorithm was larger than that of SPP, because of the remaining ionospheric error. Even though the receiver grade was different, similar results were observed.
