이 논문은 페이딩 채널에서 직접확산 부호분할다중접속(DS-CDMA) 시스템을 위한 선형제약 변형 최소평균자 승오차(MMSE) 검출의 이전 연구에 대한 후속 연구이다. 변형된 MMSE 검출과 파일로트 심볼의 도움을 받는 채널추정(PSACE)의 결합시 발생하는 시스템 동작불능을 방지하는 조건을 구하였다. 선형제약 변형 MMSE의 해가 레일레이 페이딩에서의 시간변화에 대해 이론적으로 강건함을 보였다. 이 사실은 시뮬레이션 결과와 일치한다. 아울러 어떤 조건에서 선형제약 변형 MMSE 검출이 출력 신호대간섭-잡음비(SINR)를 최대화하였다.

적응 어레이는 조향벡터를 이용하여 조향벡터 방향의 신호는 보호하면서 간섭신호를 제거한다. 조향벡터에 에러가 있으면 원하는 신호도 감쇠되어 SINR(signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio) 성능 저하를 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 원하는 신호의 도래범위를 이용하여 조향벡터 에러에 강인한 적응 빔 형성 기법을 제시한다. 제시된 기법에서는 도래범위에서 어레이 응답벡터에 관한 상관행렬을 적분을 통해 구하고, 이 상관행렬의 고유벡터 일부를 이용하여 조향벡터를 구하기 위한 최소화 문제를 정의한다. 이 최소화 문제를 컨벡스 최적화(convex optimization)의 일종인 SDP(semidefinite program) 문제로 완화하여 효과적으로 해결한다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 따르면, 제안방식은 기존의 강인한 빔 형성 방식인 ORM(outside-range-based method), USM(uncertainty-based method)보다 우수한 SINR 성능을 나타낸다.

Green communication is a new paradigm of designing the communication system which considers not only the processing performance but also the energy efficiency. Power control management is one of the approaches in green communication to reduce the power consumption in distributed communication system. In this paper, we propose improved power control schemes for mobile satellite systems with ancillary terrestrial components (ATCs). In order to increase system capacity and reduce the transmitting power of the user's equipment, we propose an efficient channel estimation method consisting of a modified open-loop power control (OLPC) and closed-loop power control (CLPC). The OLPC works well if the forward and reverse links are perfectly correlated. The CLPC is sensitive to round-trip delay and, therefore, it is not effective in a mobile satellite system. In order to solve the above problem, we added monitoring equipment to both the OLPC and CLPC to use information about transmitting power that has not yet been received by the receiver over the satellite/ATC channel. Moreover, we adapted an efficient pilot diversity of both OLPC and CLPC in order to get a better signal to interference plus noise ratio estimation of the received signal.

In this paper, we investigate a security transmission scheme at the physical layer for cooperative wireless relay networks in the presence of a passive eavesdropper. While the security scheme has been previously investigated with perfect channel state information(CSI) in the presence of a passive eavesdropper, this paper focuses on researching the robust cooperative relay beamforming mechanism for wireless relay networks which makes use of artificial noise (AN) to confuse the eavesdropper and increase its uncertainty about the source message. The transmit power used for AN is maximized to degrade the signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) level at the eavesdropper, while satisfying the individual power constraint of each relay node and worst-case SINR constraint at the desired receiver under a bounded spherical region for the norm of the CSI error vector from the relays to the destination. Cooperative beamforming weight vector in the security scheme can be obtained by using S-Procedure and rank relaxation techniques. The benefit of the proposed scheme is showed in simulation results.

본 논문은 다중 셀 상향링크 네트워크에서 간섭인지 및 전력제어 기술을 이용하여 사용자의 신호대 발생 간섭 및 잡음비 (SGINR)을 최대화시키는 분산 스케쥴링 방식을 제안한다. 시분할 시스템의 상호 호환성 특성을 이용하여 각 사용자는 인접 기지국으로부터 받은 파일럿 신호를 통하여 간섭 채널을 습득하고 데이터 전송 시 인접 셀 기지국들에 미칠 간섭을 각자 계산할 수 있다고 가정한다. 제안한 스케쥴링에서 각 사용자는 인접 셀 기지국에 미치는 간섭의 양을 계산하여 미리 결정된 임계 값보다 클 경우 자신의 송신 전력을 낮춘다. 각 기지국에서는 사용자들 중 SGINR이 가장 큰 사용자를 선택한다. 제안된 기법의 상향링크 데이터 전송률은 기존의 사용자 스케쥴링 알고리즘들에 비하여 월등히 좋은 성능을 보인다.

In this paper, an additional degree of freedom in phased multi-input multi-output (phased-MIMO) radar with any arbitrary desired covariance matrix is proposed using space-time codes. By using the proposed method, any desired transmit covariance matrix in MIMO radar (phased-MIMO radars) can be realized by employing fully correlated base waveforms such as phased-array radars and simply extending them to different time slots with predesigned phases and amplitudes. In the proposed method, the transmit covariance matrix depends on the base waveform and space-time codes. For simplicity, a base waveform can be selected arbitrarily (ie, all base waveforms can be fully correlated, similar to phased-array radars). Therefore, any desired covariance matrix can be achieved by using a very simple phased-array structure and space-time code in the transmitter. The main advantage of the proposed scheme is that it does not require diverse uncorrelated waveforms. This considerably reduces transmitter hardware and software complexity and cost. One the receiver side, multiple signals can be analyzed jointly in the time and space domains to improve the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio.

CS/CB(Coordinated Scheduling/Beamforming) 방식은 인접 기지국으로부터의 간섭신호를 최소화시키는 MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) 프리코더를 선택함으로써 셀 경계 사용자의 수율을 증가시킨다. 그러나 현재의 LTE(Long Term Evolution) 시스템에서는 안테나 한 개를 사용하여 주위 기지국으로부터 전송된 동기신호와 기준신호를 사용하여 초기화 단계에서 서빙 셀이 선택된다. 이와 같이 선택된 셀은 초기화 단계에서 MIMO 프리코더 이득을 고려하지 않고 선택되었기 때문에 데이터 전송시 최적의 선택이 아닐 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 MIMO 프리코더를 갖는 LTE 시스템을 위하여 초기화 단계에서 프리코더의 영향을 고려하여 셀을 선택하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 후보 기지국들에서 전송한 기준신호를 사용하여 획득한 정보(랭크, 유효 채널 용량, 유효 SINR(Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio))를 사용하여 셀 경계의 단말이 서빙 기지국을 선택할 수 있도록 한다. 제안한 기법은 기존의 기법과 비교하여 다중 셀 환경하의 LTE 시스템에서 채널 용량을 크게 향상시킬 수 있음을 모의실험을 통하여 확인한다.

In this paper, we investigate two new candidate transmission schemes, non-orthogonal frequency reuse (NOFR) and beam-hopping (BH). They operate in different domains (frequency and time/space, respectively), and we want to know which domain shows overall best performance. We propose a novel formulation of the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) which allows us to prove the frequency/time duality of these schemes. Further, we propose two novel capacity optimization approaches assuming per-beam SINR constraints in order to use the satellite resources (e.g., power and bandwidth) more efficiently. Moreover, we develop a general methodology to include technological constraints due to realistic implementations, and obtain the main factors that prevent the two technologies dual of each other in practice, and formulate the technological gap between them. The Shannon capacity (upper bound) and current state-of-the-art coding and modulations are analyzed in order to quantify the gap and to evaluate the performance of the two candidate schemes. Simulation results show significant improvements in terms of power gain, spectral efficiency and traffic matching ratio when comparing with conventional systems, which are designed based on uniform bandwidth and power allocation. The results also show that BH system turns out to show a less complex design and performs better than NOFR system specially for non-real time services.

This paper proposes a multipath routing protocol called cross-layer multipath AODV (CM-AODV) for wireless ad hoc networks, which selects multiple routes on demand based on the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) measured at the physical layer. Note that AODV (Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector) is one of the most popular routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks. Each time a route request (RREQ) message is forwarded hop by hop, each forwarding node updates the route quality which is defined as the minimum SINR of serialized links in a route and is contained in the RREQ header. While achieving robust packet delivery, the proposed CM-AODV is amenable to immediate implementation using existing technology by neither defining additional packet types nor increasing packet length. Compared to the conventional multipath version of AODV (which is called AOMDV), CM-AODV assigns the construction of multiple paths to the destination node and makes it algorithmically simple, resulting in the improved performance of packet delivery and the less overhead incurred at intermediate nodes. Our performance study shows that CM-AODV significantly outperforms AOMDV in terms of packet delivery ratio and average end-to-end delay, and results in less routing overhead.
