We introduce a rotational decision-directed joint algorithm of blind equalization coupled with carrier recovery for 32-QAM demodulation with high symbol rate. The proposed carrier recovery, which we call a rotational decision-directed carrier recovery(RDDCR), removes the residual phase difference by rotating the decision boundary for the kth received symbol by the frequency detector output of the (k-1)th received symbol. Since the RDDCR includes the function of PLL loop filter by rotating the decision boundary, it gives a simpler demodulator structure. The rotational decision-directed blind equalization(RDDBE) with the rotated decision boundary based on the Stop-and-Go Algorithm(SGA) operated during tracking the frequency offset by the RDDCR and removes intersymbol interference due to multipaths and channel noise. Test results show that symbol error rate of $10^{-3}$ is obtained before the forward error correction when SNR equals 15dB with 150KHz of carrier frequency offset and two multipaths, which is the channel condition for 32-QAM receiver.

DTV수신기에서 송신신호를 완벽하게 복원하기 위해서는 채널의 영향으로 인해 파일롯의 위치가 바뀌고 위상이 틀어지는 것을 보상해주는 반송파 주파수 동기와 샘플링 클락 주파수와의 위상오차로 인해 발생하는 샘플링 타이밍 오차를 보상하는 심볼 타이밍 동기가 모두 획득되어야 한다. 심볼 타이밍 동기부는 일반적으로 다중레벨을 가지는 신호에 사용되는 가드너(Gardner)방법을 사용한다. 가드너 방법은 매 심볼마다 타이밍 에러성분을 추출하므로 다중경로 채널에서 타이밍동기를 추적하면서 유지하는데 유리한 방식이다. 본 논문에서는 가드너 방법에서 에러를 검출하기 위해 사용되는 가드너 타이밍 에러 검출기(Timing Error Detector)가 수신파워레벨이 기준 파워레벨에서 크게 벗어날 경우 동기를 획득할 수 없는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 1단계로 가드너 타이밍 에러 검출기 블록 앞에 수신파워레벨을 계산하여 보정하는 블록을 추가하여 수신파워레벨을 보정한다. 2단계로 반송파 주파수동기와 심볼타이밍동기에 사용되는 PLL(Phase Locked Loop)회로의 빠른 동기 획득과 동기 획득 후 지터량을 줄이기 위하여 루프필터의 출력 값의 평균을 이용하여 옵셋량을 추정하여 추정된 옵셋의 변화율에 따라 단계적 대역폭을 가지는 적응적인 루프필터를 반송파 주파수 동기 회로와 심볼 타이밍동기 회로에 적용함으로써 최적의 동기성능을 얻는다.

This paper investigates the multifarious nature of the long-term evolution (LTE) scheme and that of the modified LTE scheme for symbol timing synchronization (STS). This investigation allows us to propose a new replica correlation-based STS scheme to overcome the inherent weaknesses of the other two schemes. The proposed STS signal combines a gold sequence and a half sine wave in the time domain, whereas conventional STS signals specify either binary sequences or complex sequences in the time domain or in the frequency domain. In the proposed scheme, a sufficient correlation property is realized by the gold sequence, and robustness against the frequency offset (FO) is achieved through the sine wave. Compared to the existing LTE-related schemes, the proposed scheme can better achieve immunity to FO and reduction in detector complexity, as well as a low peak-to-average power ratio and a low detection error rate. Performance evaluations through analysis and simulation are provided in the paper to demonstrate these attributes.

본 논문에서는 주파수 도약 방식 시스템에 적합한 비트 동기 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 비트 동기 방식은 에러 심볼 검출기를 고안하여 이를 기존의 디지털 루프 필터와 결합한 ADPLL 방식이다. 제안된 비트 동기방식은 홉류트 잡음과 임펄스 잡음 등과 같은 잡음 구간에서는 비트 추적을 억제함으로써 디지털 루프 필터의 성능을 향상시키고, 주파수 도약 시스템에서의 동기 확률을 개선시켰다. 모의 실험 결과, 제안한 비트 동기 방식이 기존의 방식에 비해서 더욱 개선된 성능을 보여줌을 입증하였다.

This paper proposes a new technique for frequency offset correction for OFDM systems on a frequency selective fading channel. Frequency offset in OFDM introduces interchannel interference among the multiple subcarriers of OFDM signal. To compensate the interference, this paper describes an algorithm with two stages:acquisition and tracking. At both stages, the proposed algorithm oversamples the received OFDM signal to obtain a couple of demodulated symbol sets. At acquisition stage the frequency offset is reduced to half or less of the intercarrier spacings by matching the sign pattern of each element of the sets. Next, at tracking stage the frequency offset is corrected with a frequency detector which is controlled by the correlation of the two sets. It is shown that the proposed algorithm can correct the frequency offset in the event of uncertainty in the initial offset that exceeds one half of the intercarrier spacing. In addition, the proposed algorithm is robust to transmitted symbols and channel characteristics by using oversampled symbol sets.

A new automatic frequency control(AFC) tracking algorithm, which we call a rotational decision directed AFC(RDDAFC) is proposed for QPSK demodulation at the digital direct broadcasting satellite(DBS). In order to prevent the presence of the residual phase difference between symbols received at k and k-l by the CPAFC[1] as well as the AFC based on $tan^{-1}$ circuit[2], the RDDAFC rotates the decision boundary for the kth received symbol by the frequency detector output of the (k-1)th received symbol before passing through the cross product discriminator. Test results show that the total pull-in time of the RDDAFC and PLL was 0.13msec under a carrier frequency offset of 2.4MHz when S/N equals 2dB.

In the paper, the differential detection techniques of 3-h CPM signals whose modulation index is varied periodically are proposed and their error performances are analyzed. We select the modulation index sets which are proper to the differential detection and propose the differential detectors which detect symbol with 3 bits per smapling period of 3T and detect a bit per sampling period of T. Applying the nonredundant error correction circuit and viterbi algorithm to differential detection of 3-h CPM. We ascertain the error performances are improved.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of DD-bardner (decision-directed gardner) algorithm. We derive an analytic gain of the thiming detector that is a function of SNR and an excess bandwidth, and verify the result by simulation. We also compare the DD-gardner algorithm with the bardner algorithm with respect to tracking performance and jitter performance under low SNR and a residual frequency component.

In this paper, a generalized blind adaptive algorithm is introduced for multi-user detection of direct sequence code division multiple access (OS-COMA) wireless communication systems. The main property of the proposed algorithm is its ability to resolve the multipath fading channel resulting in inter symbol interference (ISI) as well as multiple access interference (MAI). Other remarkable properties are its low complexity and mitigation to the near-far problem as well as its insensitivity to asynchronous transmission. The proposed system is based on the minimization of the output energy and convergence to the minimum mean square error (MMSE) detector. It is blind in the sense that it needs no knowledge of the other users' signatures, only the intended user signature and timing are required. Furthermore, the convergence of the minimum output energy (MOE) detector to the MMSE detector is analytically proven in case of M-ary PSK. Depicted results show that the performance of the generalized system dominates those previously considered. Further improvements are obtained when multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technique is employed.
