In this paper, the performance of a multiuser diversity system combined with a multi-element transmit antenna system is analyzed under the assumption of independent Rayleigh fading. A measure of system .level performance is an average channel capacity as a function of the number of users and antennas. Average channel capacity is obtained from the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) distribution combined by both transmit diversity(TD) at each link and multiuser diversity at system level. Numerical results show that closed-loop antenna techniques provide an additional gain with multiuser diversity system due to array gain, even though space diversity gain reduces multiuser diversity gain. On the other hand, the space-time block coding(STBC) that provides full order space diversity gain only has a destructive influence on multiuser diversity.

다중 입출력(MIMO : Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) 시스템은 공간 다이버시티 이득과 공간 다중화 이득을 얻을 수 있게 한다. 본 논문에서는 MIMO 시스템에서 데이터 정보와 안테나 선택 기법을 이용한 공간 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 부호화 이득과 동시에 공간 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있게 한다. BPSK(Binary Phase-Shift Keying) 변조 방식을 사용한 MIMO 시스템에서 BER 성능을 분석하고, 데이터의 편재율에 따라 달라지는 공간 다이버시티 이득을 실험을 통하여 비교하였다.

In cooperative communication systems, the source terminal transmits signal to the destination terminal with the aid of partner terminals. Therefore, the source terminal obtains extra spatial diversity gain. As a result, its performance is enhanced in term of higher achievable transmission rate, the larger coverage range, and the lower bit-error-rate (BER). Space-time codes (STCs) have been applied to cooperative communication systems in distributed fashion, in which the signal is spatially time exploited to obtain gains analogous to those provided by STCs. In this work, we consider the application of orthogonal Space-time Block Codes (OSTBCs) to the cooperative communication systems to further achieve higher diversity gain. The advances of the proposed approach are verified via computer simulations.

본 논문에서는 대표적인 고밀집 도심지역인 서울의 광화문 지역을 대상으로 이중 편파 안테나를 이용한 편파 다이버시티의 전파 전파 성능을 다이버시티 이득과 상호상관계수, 수신 채널의 평균 수신 신호 레벨에 대한 분석 을 통하여 수행하였고 이의 결과를 공간 다이버시티 구조와 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 가시 거리 지역에서는 공간 다이버시티 이득이 편파 다이버시티 이득보다 2 dB 이상 증가하며 전 계를 지면에 대해 $45^{\circ}$로 송신하는 경우보다는 $^90{\circ}$로 송신하는 경우가 다이버시티 이득이 1 dB 큼올 알 수 있었 다. 이와는 대조적으로 비가시 지역에서는 편파다이버시티의 경우가 공간 다이버시티와 대동하거나 운용 환경에 따라서는 오히려 다이버시티 이득이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 $45^{\circ}$로 송신하는 경우가 $90^{\circ}$로 송신하는 경우보 다는 다이버시티 이득이 최소 1 dB 이상은 커짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 편파 다이버시티에 대한 전파전파 특성 분석과 상용의 이동전화 기지국 시스템에 적용하기 위 한 가능성을 검증하였다. 이를 위하여 교외지역 및 주거지역을 대상으로 $\pm45^{\circ}$ 선형 편파특성을 가진 이중편파 안테나를 이용하였고, 다이버시티 이득(Diversity gain)과 상호상관계수(Cross correlation coefficients)의 관 점에서 기존의 공간 다이벼시티의 성능과 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과 공간 다아버시티가 편파 다이버시티보다 1~2 dB 정도의 다이버시티 이득은 높게 나타났으며, 휴대용 이동전화 환경에서는 편파다이버시티와 공간다이 버시티 각각에 대한 상호 상관 계수는 그 차이가 $\pm0.1$ 이내로 큰 차이가 없음올 CDF(Cummulative Distrib bution Function) 분석을 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

Since the publication of Alamouti's famous space-time block code, various quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes (QSTBC) for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) fading channels for more than two transmit antennas have been proposed. It has been shown that these codes cannot achieve full diversity at full rate. In this paper, we present a simple feedback scheme for rich scattering (flat Rayleigh fading) MIMO channels that improves the coding gain and diversity of a QSTBC for 2$^n$ (n=3, 4, ${\cdots}$) transmit antennas. The relevant channel state information is sent back from the receiver to the transmitter quantized to one or two bits per code block. In this way, signal transmission with an improved coding gain and diversity near to the maximum diversity order is achieved. Such high diversity can be exploited with either a maximum-likelihood receiver or low-complexity zero-forcing receiver.

The present paper defines diversity gain for stationary users. This deals in particular with gathering the received signal statistics over possible user positions and orientations in space rather than over time, and to define a meaningful diversity gain related to the cumulative improvement of the performances of the 1% users with the worst receiving conditions. The definition is used to evaluate diversity gain for some typical small antennas in an extreme environment with only line-of-sight (LOS). The LOS environment is regarded as user-distributed 3D-random LOS caused by the statistics of an ensemble of stationary users with arbitrary orientations in the horizontal plane (2D), and with arbitrary orientations of their wireless devices in the vertical plane. Thus, an overall 3D-random distribution of user orientation is assumed.

The analysis of maximum diversity order and coding gain for multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems over time-and frequency-selective (or doubly-selective) channels is addressed in this paper. A novel channel time-space correlation function is developed given the spatially correlated doubly-selective Rayleigh fading channel model. Based on this channel-model assumption, the upper-bound of pairwise error probability (PEP) for MIMO-OFDM systems is derived under the maximum likelihood (ML) detection. For a certain space-frequency code, we quantify the maximum diversity order and deduce the expression of coding gain. In this wort the impact of channel time selectivity is especially studied and a new definition of time diversity is illustrated correspondingly

A simple measurement system is built to estimate the dual-antenna diversity gain at 2.4GHz easily in open lab environment. To obtain multipath fading propagation channel, the system consists of two transmission horn that placed on opposite direction and a rotating stage mechanically changing the position of test dual-antenna with time over distance greater than one wavelength. Estimated diversity is nearly same as theoretical value such that measured diversity gain of 30mm separated is about 6dB similar to theoretical value of 5.7dB and increases monotonically with the increasing separation distance as predicted by the theory. Proposed measurement system that is simple enough to fit in a small space can evaluate the performance of various dual-antennas with a reasonable accuracy with lower 5% difference between the ten sets of measured waveform distribution and theoretical Rayleigh cumulative distribution.

This paper derives the symbol error rate (SER) for quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) with L-fold selection combining (SC) space diversity in Rayleigh fading channel. No analysis has been reported yet for theoretical SER performance of QAM with SC space diversity in Rayleigh fading channels. The formula is obtained by averaging the symbol error probability of M-ary QAM in an additive white Gaussian noise channel over the distribution of the maximum signal-to-noise ratio among all of the diversity channels. By giving the order of diversity, L, and the number of signal points, M, we have been able to obtain the SER performance of QAM with general SC space diversity. Analytical results show that the probability of error decreases with the order of diversity. We can also see that the incremental diversity gain per additional diversity decreases as the number of branches becomes larger.
