본 논문에서는 셀프리 다중안테나 네트워크에서 하위 성능 사용자의 주파수 효율을 증대시키기 위한 전력 재할당 기법을 고려한다. AP(Access Point)는 사용자의 대규모 페이딩(large-scale fading) 채널 정보를 이용해 채널 세기에 비례하여 전력을 할당하여 전체 네트워크의 전력효율을 극대화한다. 다음으로 AP는 하위 성능 사용자의 주파수 효율을 증가시키기 위해 할당전력 중 임계비율 이상의 전력을 할당받은 사용자의 전력을 임계비율과 같아지도록 줄이고, 회수한 전력을 채널이 가장 나쁜 사용자에게 추가로 할당한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 전력 재할당 기법을 통해 증가시킬 수 있는 하위 성능 사용자의 주파수 효율을 정량적으로 검증한다.

We consider an overlaid broadcast service, where a spread spectrum (SS)-based broadcast signal is overlaid onto the existing terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) band. The system is similar to the augmented data transmission in the ATSC DTV, for which it was investigated mostly in terms of link level performance, such as bit error rate. Our focus in this paper is on the system-level performances. More specifically, utilizing both a large scale path loss and a small scale fading channel model, the primary objective is to explore the tradeoff between the coverage and the achievable rate of the overlaid service and, finally, to determine the achievable rate in the overlaid service for marginal coverage reduction in the existing broadcast service. The analytical and simulation results show that an SS-based add-on service of 10 kbps to 20 kbps can co-exist with the T-DMB service while resulting in only a marginal degradation in T-DMB coverage (for example, less than one percent reduction).

The core of cognitive radio is the problem concerning intelligent decision-making for communication parameters, the objective of which is to find the most appropriate parameter configuration to optimize transmission performance. The current algorithms have the disadvantages of high dependence on prior knowledge, large amount of calculation, and high complexity. We propose a new decision-making model by making full use of the interactivity of reinforcement learning (RL) and applying the Q-learning algorithm. By simplifying the decision-making process, we avoid large-scale RL, reduce complexity and improve timeliness. The proposed model is able to find the optimal waveform parameter configuration for the communication system in complex channels without prior knowledge. Moreover, this model is more flexible than previous decision-making models. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our model. The model not only exhibits better decision-making performance in the AWGN channels than the traditional method, but also make reasonable decisions in the fading channels.

이종 네트워크 환경에서 이종셀 간 간섭 제어를 위해 Almost Blank Subframes (ABS)이 제안 되었다. ABS에서는 서브프레임에 대한 자원 할당을 하지 않음으로써 동일 채널 간섭을 줄일 수 있다. 기존 연구에서는 ABS 기술의 성능 평가를 위한 수학적 모델링이 제안되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 ABS 기술에 대한 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. 분석을 위한 가정에서 OFDMA 기반의 다중 반송파 (multi carrier) 시스템을 가정하였고, large-scale 페이딩을 가정하였다. 성능 평가로써 effective SINR에 대한 누적분포함수를 나타낸다. 시뮬레이션과 분석에 대한 결과 비교를 통해 수학적 모델에 대한 정확도를 보인다.

In evaluating the performance of a dual-hop wireless link, the effects of large and small scale fading has to be considered. To overcome this fading effect, several schemes, such as multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) with orthogonal space time block codes (OSTBC), different combining schemes at the relay and receiving end, and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) are used in both the transmitting and the relay links. In this paper, we first make compare the performance of a two-hop wireless link under a different combination of space diversity in the first and second hop of the amplify-and-forward (AF) case. Our second task in this paper is to incorporate the weak signal of a direct link and then by applying the channel model of two random variables (one for a direct link and another for a relayed link) we get very impressive result at a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that is comparable with other models at a higher SNR. Our third task is to bring other three schemes under a two-hop wireless link: use of transmit antenna selection (TAS) on both link with weak direct link, distributed Alamouti scheme in two-hop link and single relay antenna with OFDM subcarrier. Finally, all of the schemes mentioned above are compared to select the best possible model. The main finding of the paper is as follows: the use of MIMO on both hops but application TAS on both links with weak direct link and the full rate OFDM with the sub-carrier for an individual link provide a better result as compared to other models.

Recently silicon has attracted intense interest as a promising anode material of lithium-ion batteries due to its extremely high capacity of 4200 mA/g (for Li4.2Si) that is much higher than 372 mAh/g (for LiC6) of graphite. However, it seriously suffers from large volume change (even up to 300%) of the electrode upon lithiation, leading to its pulverization or mechanical failure during lithiation/delithiation processes and the rapid capacity fading. To overcome this problem, Si nanowires have been considered. Use of such Si nanowires provides their facile relaxation during lithiation/delithiation without mechanical breaking. To design better Si electrodes, a study to unveil atomic-scale mechanisms involving the volume expansion and the phase transformation upon lithiation is critical. In order to investigate the lithiation mechanism in Si nanowires, we have developed a reactive force field (ReaxFF) for Si-Li systems based on density functional theory calculations. The ReaxFF method provides a highly transferable simulation method for atomistic scale simulation on chemical reactions at the nanosecond and nanometer scale. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with the ReaxFF reproduces well experimental anisotropic volume expansion of Si nanowires during lithiation and diffusion behaviors of lithium atoms, indicating that it would be definitely helpful to investigate lithiation mechanism of Si electrodes and then design new Si electrodes.

실내 환경에서 이러한 두가지변수인 대규모에서의 경로손실과 소규모에서의 페이딩현상은 거리에 대한 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator) 값의 비선형적인 변화를 유발하게 되며 이러한 현상이 실내위치 추적에서의 문제점의 하나로 지적되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 동일한 방에서의 다른 위치와 시간에서의 RSSI변화를 실험에 의한 통계에 의해 찾아서 보다 정밀한 모델을 세워서 실내 RSSI 특성화를 이루려고 하였다. 실험에서 RSSI값이 공간과 일시적인 요인 두가지에 의해 결정되는 것이 확인되었고 다른 위치에 있는 모든 센서 노드도 공간차라메터는 다르지만 임시파라메터값은 동일하다는 것을 확인하였다. 임시 파라메터들도 환경변화에 따라 천천히 신간에 따라 변화하는 대규모적인 변수의 특성을 지닌다. 이러한 관계를 활용하여 위치추적을 보다 효율적이고 정밀하게 평가할 수 있었다.

In practical wireless systems, the erroneous channel state information (CSI) sometimes deteriorates the performance drastically. This paper focuses on robust design of coordinated set planning of coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission, with respect to the feedback delay and link error. The non-ideal channel models involving various uncertainty conditions are given. After defining a penalty factor, the robust net ergodic capacity optimization problem is derived, whose variables to be optimized are the number of coordinated base stations (BSs) and the divided area's radius. By the maximum minimum criterion, upper and lower bounds of the robust capacity are investigated. A practical scheme is proposed to determine the optimal number of cooperative BSs. The simulation results indicate that the robust design based on maxmin principle is better than other precoding schemes. The gap between two bounds gets smaller as transmission power increases. Besides, as the large scale fading is higher or the channel is less reliable, the number of the cooperated BSs shall be greater.

For massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) circumstances with time division duplex (TDD) protocol, pilot contamination becomes one of main system performance bottlenecks. This paper proposes an uplink pilot sequence assignment to alleviate this problem for spatially correlated massive MIMO circumstances. Firstly, a single-cell TDD massive MIMO model with multiple terminals in the cell is established. Then a spatial correlation between two channel response vectors is established by the large-scale fading variables and the angle of arrival (AOA) span with an infinite number of base station (BS) antennas. With this spatially correlated channel model, the expression for the achievable system capacity is derived. To optimize the achievable system capacity, a problem regarding uplink pilot assignment is proposed. In view of the exponential complexity of the exhaustive search approach, a pilot assignment algorithm corresponding to the distinct channel AOA intervals is proposed to approach the optimization solution. In addition, simulation results prove that the main pilot assignment algorithm in this paper can obtain a noticeable performance gain with limited BS antennas.

광섬유를 사용하여 미소 교류자기장 (200Hz-2kHz) 감지를 위한 광섬유 간섭계 자기센서시스템을 구성하였다. 자왜효과(magnetostriction effect)가 큰 비정질 metallic glass(2605SC)를 광섬유에 부착하여 자기장 감지부를 제작하고 방향성 결합기 metallic glass(2605SC)를 광섬유에 부착하여 자기장 감지부를 제작하고 방향성 결합기(directional coupler)를 사용한 광섬유 일체식(all-fiber type)으로 Mach-Zehnder 간섭계를 구성하여 외부 자기장의 변화를 간섭계의 위상변화로 변환시켜 그 크기를 측정하였다. 온도변화, 진동 등 주위환경에서 오는 불규칙한 신호에 의한 간섭계의 신호소멸(signal fading) 문제는 능동 위상추적방법(active phase tracking method)으로 간섭계의 기준 광통로(reference arm)에 위치한 위상 변조기에 보상신호를 되먹임으로써, 직각조건(quadrature condition)을 이루어 안정시켰다. 측정 결과 metallic glass의 주파수 반응특성은 900Hz-2kHz 대역에서 거의 비슷한 경향을 보였으며 최대 감도를 나타내는 직류 바이어스 자기장은 3.5 Oe 였다. 미소 교류자기장에 대한 간섭계의 출력은 $\pm$0.5 Oe 범위 안에서 좋은 선형성을 보였다. 1 kHz 교류자기장에 대한 scale factor S는 8.0 rad/Oe 이었으며 최소감지자기장은 $3X10^{-6} Oe/\sqrt{Hz}$(1Hz detection bandwidth)이었다.
