Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication may provide high spectral efficiency through the deployment of a very large number of antenna elements at the base stations. The gains from massive MIMO communication come from the use of multi-user MIMO on the uplink and downlink, but with a large excess of antennas at the base station compared to the number of served users. Initial work on massive MIMO did not fully address several practical issues associated with its deployment. This paper considers the impact of channel aging on the performance of massive MIMO systems. The effects of channel variation are characterized as a function of different system parameters assuming a simple model for the channel time variations at the transmitter. Channel prediction is proposed to overcome channel aging effects. The analytical results on aging show how capacity is lost due to time variation in the channel. Numerical results in a multicell network show that massive MIMO works even with some channel variation and that channel prediction could partially overcome channel aging effects.

In the recent years, femtocell technology has received a considerable attention due to the ability to provide an efficient indoor wireless coverage as well as enhanced capacity. However, under the spectrum sharing between femtocell user equipment (FUEs) and the owner of spectrum macrocell user equipment (MUEs), both may experience higher uplink interference to each other. This paper proposes a novel distributed power control algorithm for the interference management in two-tier femtocell networks. Due to the assignment of licensed radio frequency to the outdoor macrocell users, the access priority of MUEs should be higher than FUEs. In addition, the quality of service (QoS) of MUEs that is expressed in the target signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) must always be achieved. On the other hand, we consider an efficient QoS provisioning cost function for the low-tier FUEs. The proposed algorithm requires only local information and converges even in cases where the frontiers of available power serve the target SINRs impossible. The advantage of the algorithm is the ability to implement in a distributed manner. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm based on our cost function provides effective resource allocation and substantial power saving as compared to the traditional algorithms.

본 논문에서는 다중 전송률을 지원하는 차세대 무선 이동통신 시스템의 상향 채널에 적용할 수 있는 새로운 알고리즘의 병렬간섭제거기를 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존 IS-95방식과 달리 다중 데이터율에 적용할 수 있는 알고리즘을 이용하며 이를 통해 CDMA시스템에서의 성능저하 및 채널 용량의 제한을 가져오는 MAI(Multiple Access Interference)를 제거할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안된 방법의 성능평가를 위하여 사용자수증가에 따른 BER (Bit Error Rate), 단수 (stage) 증가에 따른 BER등의 방법을 사용하였다. 다양한 모의실험 환경을 통해서 본 연구에서 제안된 알고리즘이 비록 계산량의 증가는 있으나 기존에 제안된 여러 간섭제거 기에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 패킹 방식 CDMA 망에서 기존에 제시되었던 음성과 데이터 통합 서비스를 위한 매체 접근 제어(Medium Access Control: MAC) 프로토콜들이 갖는 문제점들을 고찰하고 이를 극복할 수 있는 새로운 접근 방법을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서는 동기식 다중코드 CDMA 시스템에서 중앙의 기지국이 모든 단말의 트래픽 상태를 우선권(priority)에 의해 파악하고 이에 따라 패킷 단위로 채널을 할당함으로써 음성과 데이터 서비스를 효율적으로 통합할 수 있는 Prioritized Packet Reservation CDMA ($P^2R$-CDMA) 프로토콜을 제안하고, 모의 실험을 통해 음성과 데이터 트래픽이 요구하는 서비스 품질을 보장하면서 다중화 이득을 극대화함으로써 전송 허가 확률의 제어를 기반으로 하는 기존의 방식보다 시스템 용량을 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In recent years, development of femtocells are receiving considerable attention towards increasing the network coverage, capacity, and improvement in the quality of service for users. In 3GPP LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) system, to efficiently utilize the bandwidth, femtocell and macro cell uses the same frequency band, but this deployment poses a technical challenge of cross-tier interference to macro users. In this paper, the novel quality of service based fractional power control (QoS-FPC) scheme under the heterogeneous networks environment is proposed, which considers the users priority and QoS-requirements during the power allocation. The proposed QoS-FPC scheme has two focal points: firs, it protects the macrocell users uplink communication by limiting the cross-tier interference at eNB below a given threshold, and second, it ensures the optimization of femtocell users power allocation at each power adjustment phase. Performance gain is demonstrated with extensive system-level simulations to show that the proposed QoS-FPC scheme significantly decreases the cross-tier intereference and improves the overall users throughput.

Media Access Control (MAC) Protocol in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN standard supports two types of services, synchronous and asynchronous. Synchronous real-time traffic is served by Point Coordination Function (PCF) that implements polling access method. Asynchronous nonreal-time traffic is provided by Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) based on Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocol. Since real-time traffic is sensitive to delay, and nonreal-time traffic to error and throughput, proper traffic scheduling algorithm needs to be designed. But it is known that the standard IEEE 802.11 scheme is insufficient to serve real-time traffic. In this paper, real-time traffic scheduling and admission control algorithm is proposed. To satisfy the deadline violation probability of the real time traffic the downlink traffic is scheduled before the uplink by Earliest Due Date (EDD) rule. Admission of real-time connection is controlled to satisfy the minimum throughput of nonreal-time traffic which is estimated by exponential smoothing. Simulation is performed to have proper system capacity that satisfies the Quality of Service (QoS) requirement. Tradeoff between real-time and nonreal-time stations is demonstrated. The admission control and the EDD with downlink-first scheduling are illustrated to be effective for the real-time traffic in the wireless LAN.

The recent advances in wireless networks area have led to new techniques, such as small cells or full-duplex (FD) transmission, have also been developed to further increase the network capacity. Particularly, full-duplex communication promises expected throughput gain by doubling the spectrum compared to half-duplex (HD) communication. Because this technique permits one set of frequencies to simultaneously transmit and receive signals. In this paper, we focus on the binary power control for the users and the base stations in full-duplex multiple cellulars wireless networks to obtain optimal sum-rate under the effect interference and noise. We investigate with a scenario in there one carrier is assigned to only one user in each cell and construct a model for this problem. In this work, we apply the binary power control by the its simplification in the implemented algorithm for both uplink and downlink simultaneously to maximize sum data rate of the system. At first, we realize the 2-cells case separately to check the optimal power allocation whether being binary. Then, we carry on with N-cells case in general through properties of binary power control.

Accelerated by the Internet of Things (IoT), the need for further technical innovations and developments within wireless communications beyond the fifth generation (B5G) networks is up-and-coming in the past few years. High altitude platform station (HAPS) communication is expected to achieve such high levels that, with high data transfer rates and low latency, millions of devices and applications can work seamlessly. The HAPS has emerged as an indispensable component of next-generations of wireless networks, which will therefore play an important role in promoting massive IoT interconnectivity with 6G. The performance of communication and key technology mainly depend on the characteristic of channel, thus we propose an efficient Markov chain based channel model, then analyze the HAPS communication system's uplink capability and swing effect through experiments. According to the simulation results, the efficacy of the proposed scheme is proven to meet the requirements of ubiquitous connectivity in future IoT enabled by 6G.

3GPP의 LTE/LTE-Advanced 시스템은 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 기술적용으로 주파수 할당에 의한 간섭분석 및 주파수 공유평가가 중요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 LTE 두 사업자/시스템간의 인접채널 간섭 분석에 의한 주파수 공유연구를 수행하였다. 업링크 및 다운링크에서의 시스템 용량 및 스루풋(throughput) 손실에 대한 시뮬레이션 분석이 이루어져 5% 손실율의 주파수 공유기준으로 요구되는 ACIR(Adjacent Channel Interference Ratio) 값을 정의하였다. 유저(user)의 위치, 간섭 대역폭, 시스템 분리 옵셋(separation offset) 등의 파라미터들에 의해 주파수 공유를 위해 요구되는 ACIR 값에 미치는 영향이 분석되었으며, 이러한 결과 데이터 및 간섭분석 방법들은 향후 LTE RF 표준 및 주파수 유효이용에 참고자료로 활용될 것이다.

디지털 가입자 회선(DSL)의 채널 용량에 가장 크게 영향을 미치는 내부 잡음원으로서 근단누화(NEXT) 및 원단누화(FEXT) 잡음을 들 수 있지만, 외부 잡음원인 임펄스 영향에 의해 DSL 성능 열화가 야기되므로 송수신 설계에 있어 이들 잡음원들의 복합적인 성능 분석이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 테스트 신호 Cook 펄스를 Middleton의 Class A 임펄스 신호로 모델화 한 후, 가우스 잡음, NEXT 및 FEXT 잡음, 임펄스 잡음의 복합 잡음환경에서 DMT 신호의 SNR 마진을 계산하여 평가를 행하였다. 그 결과 업링크상에서는 루프전송길이에 따른 전송속도의 열화는 크지 않으며, 잡음의 특성에 의해 전송속도가 제한되지만, 다운링크상에서는 루프 전송길이 뿐만 아니라 잡음특성등에 의한 복합적인 열화가 두드러짐을 알 수 있다. 결론적으로 본 연구의 결과는 임펄스 잡음을 포함한 복합환경에서의 ADSL 성능기준을 설정하는데 주요 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
