In this paper, a channel estimation based on the time-domain windowing and its imperfectness in OFDM-based multiple-antenna transmission systems are analyzed with an emphasis on a preamble design for multi-channel separation, From the computer simulation results, the OFDM-CDMA system applying a space-time-frequency diversity with a full-rate full diversity code can give the diversity of D = 4 and D = 8 for both multi-user cases of maximum user and half user capacities, respectively

시공간 블록부호는 송신단에서 여러 개의 안테나를 사용하여 무선 통신의 신뢰도를 높인다. 그런데 4개의 송신안테나를 사용하는 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4와 전송률 1을 동시에 얻을 수 없다. 직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 차수 4를 유지하지만 전송률에서 손해를 보는 반면, 준직교 시공간 블록부호는 다이버시티 이득에서 손해를 보면서 전송률 1을 유지한다. 본 논문에서는 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 복호기에서 최대 우도 복호 방법으로 비트별 연성결정값을 출력하고, 터보부호와 연접하여 다양한 전송률에서 직교 및 준직교 시공간 블록부호의 성능을 비교하였다.

A scheme is proposed for measuring similarities between the binary pulse signals in the pulse-code modulation using the Integra-Normalizer. The Integra-Normalizer provides a better interpretation of the relationship between the pulse signals by removing redundant codes, which maps all possible observed signals to one of the codes to be received with relative similarities between each pair of compared signals. The proposed method provides better error tolerance than L2 metric, such as Hamming distance, since the distances between pulse signals are measured not useful for the time-delay detection in the pulse-code modulation.

In this paper, we present a method to improve the performance of the four transmit antenna quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (STBC) in the coded system. For the four transmit antenna case, the quasi-orthogonal STBC consists of two symbol groups which are orthogonal to each other, but intra group symbols are not. In uncoded system with the matched filter detection, constellation rotation can improve the performance. However, in coded systems, its gain is absorbed by the coding gain especially for lower rate code. We propose an iterative decoding method to improve the performance of quasi-orthogonal codes in coded systems. With conventional quasi-orthogonal STBC detection, the joint ML detection can be improved by iterative processing between the demapper and the decoder. Simulation results shows that the performance improvement is about 2dB at 1% frame error rate.

In this paper, design of quasi-cyclic(QC) low-density parity-check codes is proposed to have full diversity for space-time bit-interleaved coded modulation(ST-BICM) systems. Necessary and sufficient conditions that the proposed scheme has full diversity are proved as the condition that submatrices corresponding to the system part of codewords are invertible. And new construction method of binary invertible matrices for QC LDPC codes in ST-BICM systems are also proposed and modification for parity-check matrices are also explained.

In the blind Maximum-likelihood (ML) detection for Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (OSTBC), the problem of ambiguity in determining the symbols has been a great concern. A possible solution to this problem is to apply semi-blind ML detection, i.e. the blind ML decoding with pilot symbols or training sequence. In order to increase the performance, the number of pilot symbols or length of training sequence should be increased. Unfortunately, this leads to a significantly decrease in system spectral efficiency. This work presents an approach to resolve the aforementioned issue by introducing a new method for constructing transmitted information symbols, in which transmitting information symbols drawn form different modulation constellations. Therefore, the ambiguity can be easily eliminated. In addition, computer simulation is implemented to verify the performance of the proposed approach.

In this study, the performance of ranging techniques for the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) space communication system is investigated. KPLO is the first lunar mission of Korea, and pseudo-noise (PN) ranging will be used to support the mission along with sequential ranging. We compared the performance of both ranging techniques using the criteria of accuracy, acquisition probability, and measurement time. First, we investigated the end-to-end accuracy error of a ranging technique incorporating all sources of errors such as from ground stations and the spacecraft communication system. This study demonstrates that increasing the clock frequency of the ranging system is not required when the dominant factor of accuracy error is independent of the thermal noise of the ranging technique being used in the system. Based on the understanding of ranging accuracy, the measurement time of PN and sequential ranging are further investigated and compared, while both techniques satisfied the accuracy and acquisition requirements. We demonstrated that PN ranging performed better than sequential ranging in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime where KPLO will be operating, and we found that the T2B (weighted-voting balanced Tausworthe, voting v = 2) code is the best choice among the PN codes available for the KPLO mission.

A system design and realization for real time DVR system with robust video watermarking algorithm for contents security is presented in this paper. The robust video watermarking is used the intraframe space region and interframe insertion simultaneously, and to be processed at real time on image data and algorithm is used the 64bits special purpose quad DSP processor with assembly and soft pipeline codes. The experimental result shows that the processing time takes about 2.5ms in the D1 image per frame for 60% moving image.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of various diversity techniques which can contribute to provide efficient multimedia broadcasting services via hybrid/integrated satellite and terrestrial network. Space-time coding can achieve the diversity gain in a multi-path environment without additional bandwidth requirement. Recent study results reported that satellite systems can achieve high diversity gains by appropriate utilization of STC and/or forward error correction. Based on these previous study results, we present various cooperative diversity techniques by combing STC and rate compatible turbo codes in order to realize the transmit diversity for the mobile satellite system. The satellite and several terrestrial repeaters operate in unison to send the encoded signals, so that receiver may realize diversity gain. The results demonstrated in this paper can be utilized in future system implementation.

In order to transmit data at high speed in the wireless environment, OFDM is selected as the transmission method of various high-speed wireless communication system since it has the advantage to deal easily the serious selective frequency fading channel by the multiple path. We evaluate STBC-OFDM and linear STBC-OFDM combining with a class of recently proposed linear scalable space-time block codes and OFDM in MIMO channel environments, and demonstrate the performance for spatial multiplexing and diversity gain. The codes are able to use jointly transmit diversity in combination with spatial multiplexing, and achieve spatial and temporal diversity. Frequency diversity of frequency selective channels can be utilized by combining the linear STBC and OFDM. Simulation results are shown to demonstrate the better performance of proposed approach in comparison with STBC-OFDM.
