In this paper, the performances of a single-user DS-UWB system applying two simple proposed channel estimation schemes are introduced, according to the newly updated DS-UWB PHY Layer standard from IEEE P802.15.3a. The performances of error control coding, different combining schemes in selective Rake receiver for DS-UWB system are analyzed. Both of the two channel estimation schemes using data-independent structure work well in DS-UWB system with few pilot bits. For the purpose of channel estimation and reduces the number of pilot bits, we apply a pilot symbol spreaded with $2{^8}-1\;or\;2{^9}-1$ periods of m-sequence for different channel estimation schemes.

In this paper, the performance of ultra-wideband (UWB) single input multiple output (SIMO) systems to achieve high data rate communications is studied in dense multipath environments. The effects of spatial and temporal diversities on the performance of multi-user time-hopping UWB systems using binary pulse position modulation (2PPM) are analyzed. The reduced-complexity Rake receivers based on the selective combining (called SRake) and partial combining (called PRake) are considered. The theoretical and simulation results show that the BER performance of the UWB system can be enhanced as the number of array elements and/or Rake fingers increases. Moreover, we observe that SRake is more effective for the IR-UWB systems to achieve a good BER performance, as compared with PRake.

The performance of a multi-carrier CDMA system is analyzed considering frequency selective multipath fading and Near/Far effects. The number of multicarrier, multiuser, and arms of RAKE receiver, and the decay ratio of frequency selective multipath fading are used as a parameter for the performance analysis. More over, the distribution and the strength of multiuser interference are also considered. To evaluate the Near/Far effects in a multi-carrier CDMA system, three distribution models are assumed. In the first model, interference to carrier Ratio, I/C, ranges from -4 dB to 4dB, and at each 2 dB interval, 20 % of multiuser is assumed to be uniformly distributed. In the second one, I/C ranges from -2 dB to 2 dB, and 33.3% of multiuser is assumed to be equally dispersed at each 2dB interval. The third model is 0 dB of I/C, that is, with perfect power control, multiuser are assumed to be evenly located. In this paper, multi-carrier CDMA system adoption RAKE receiver is proposed to mitigate the frequency selective multipath fading. From the results, the third model(i.e. perfect power control) shows the best performance, and the narrower range of I/C causes the less effects to the desired signal, which reads to the better performance.

Performance of conventional PN acquisition schemes deteriorates when it is used in a fading channel. A new modified PN acquisition scheme is proposed to improve that performance in a frequency-selective fading channel. Simulation is used for verifying the performance which shows that the new scheme outper-forms the convention PN acquisition scheme using similar hardware.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of a multicode-CDMA system which have been proposed for the multimedia communications. The performance of a multicode-CDMA system, providing good spectrum efficiency as well as serving various bit rates, is analyzed with multipath, frequency selective, slowly fading Rayleigh channel. Also the proposed scheme adopting RAKE receiver with MRC(Maximal Ratio Combine) is advantageous to multipath channel. For a practical channel modeling, the JTC(Joint Technical Committee) recommended channel model(JTC(AIR) 23-065R6) is applied to simulation. The proposed schemehas serial-to-parallel convertor which splits input data stream of 2 Mits/s into 20 branches o 100 kbits/s. From the result of simulation, the case of RAKE receiver with 3 fingers to reduce the system complexity required the relatively large $E_{b}/N_O$ of 0 dB~1.5 dB, compared to the case of RAKE receiver with the number of path finger to keep the average error rate to be $1{\times}10^{-3}$ in channel A.

The higher data rate of mobile communications has been required for various multimedia services. In DS-CDMA system, one of the solutions to increase the throughput is to use multicode. However, multipath channel destorys the orthogonality of spreading codes, which causes the intercede interference(ICI). ICI gives severe effect on multicode DS-CDMA for BER performance. Conventionally, multicode DS-CDMA system uses the Rake receiver with turbo code, which cannot overcome error floor caused by ICI. In this paper, we propose frequency domain turbo equalization based on minimum mean squared error(FDTE-MMSE) for multicode DS-CDMA in frequency selective channel and evaluate its BER performance by computer simulation. The simulation results show that FDTE-MMSE gives much better performance in high Eb/N0 than the Rake receiver with turbo code in multipath length L>1.

본 논문에서는 다중경로가 무수히 많은 환경에서 다중안테나를 이용하여 고속의 데이터 전송률을 달성하기 위한 초광대역(UWB: Ultra-Wideband) 시스템의 성능 향상에 대해 연구한다. 다중 수신안테나가 제공하는 공간다이버시티와 RAKE 수신기가 제공하는 시간 다이버시티가 2PAM(Binary Pulse Amplitude Modulation) TH(Time Hopping) UWB 통신 시스템의 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 다중수신안테나의 수가 증가함에 따라 TH-UWB 시스템의 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능이 크게 향상됨을 보인다. 또한 SRAKE(Selective RAKE)에 의해 선택되는 다중경로 성분의 수가 증가할수록 시스템의 성능이 더욱 향상 됨을 확인한다.

In this paper a new multiple access scheme, CI/DS-CDMA rising the interference of multiple carriers, is introduced. In this system the chip is made up of N orthogonal carriers equally spaced in frequency, where N corresponds to the number of chips in DS-CDMA. The characteristics of CI/DS-CDMA systems in a typical frequency selective fading channel environment, are analyzed. And it is shown that the frequency diversity benefits of this system result in significant performance enhancements relative to traditional DS-CDMA with RAKE receivers.
