본 논문에서는 RF CMOS 180-nm 공정을 이용하여 무선 통신 기기에서 quad-band를 지원하기 위한 전력 증폭기를 설계하였다. 제안한 전력증폭기는 low-band인 0.9,1.8,2.4 GHz 와 high-band인 5 GHz 로 구성되어있으며, 각각 입력 정합회로에서는 스위치를 사용하지 않는 구조를 제안하였다. 그리고 최대 선형 전력 확보를 위해 출력 정합회로는 각 주파수 대역에서의 전력 정합지점으로 임피던스 변환을 진행하였다. 제안한 전력증폭기는 무선 통신 변조 신호를 사용하여 검증하였다. Long-term evolution(LTE) 10 MHz 변조 신호를 이용하여 0.9 GHz 및 1.8 GHz 를 측정하였으며, 이때 출력 전력은 각각 23.55 dBm 및 24.23 dBm으로 측정 되었고, 20 MHz 변조 신호를 사용한 경우, 1.8 GHz에서 출력 전력 22.24 dBm 이 측정되었다. Wireless local area network(WLAN) 802.11n 변조 신호를 이용하여 2.4 GHz 및 5.0 GHz 대역을 측정하였으며, 출력 전력은 20.58 dBm 및 17.7 dBm으로 확인되었다.

Due to the advantages of low transmit power consumption, high spectral efficiency and extended system coverage, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has drawn explosive attention in wireless communication field. Considering that intra-cell interference caused between cellular signals and D2D signals, in this paper, a network coding-based D2D relay cooperative transmission algorithm is proposed. Under D2D single-hop relay transmission mode, cellular interfering signals can be regarded as useful signals to code with D2D signals at D2D relay node. Using cellular interfering signals and network coded signals, D2D receiver restores the D2D signals to achieve the effect of interference suppression. Theoretical analysis shows that, compared with Amplify-and-forward (AF) mode and Decode-and-forward (DF) mode, the proposed algorithm can dramatically increase the link achievable rate. Furthermore, simulation experiment verifies that by employing the proposed algorithm, the interference signals in D2D communication can be eliminated effectively, and meanwhile the symbol error rate (SER) performance can be improved.

The ongoing adoption of 5G will increase the data traffic, throughput, multimedia services, and power consumption for future wireless applications and services, including sensor and mobile networks. Multipath fading on wireless channels also reduces the system performance and increases energy consumption. To address these issues, device-to-device (D2D) and cooperative communications have been proposed. In this study, we propose two inter-clustering models using the relay selection method to improve system performance and increase energy efficiency in cooperative D2D networks. We develop two inter-clustering models and present their respective algorithms. Subsequently, we run a computer simulation to evaluate each model's outage probability (OP) performance, throughput, and energy efficiency. The simulation results show that inter-clustering model II has the lowest OP, highest throughput, and highest energy efficiency compared with inter-clustering model I and the conventional inter-clustering-based multirelay method. These results demonstrate that inter-clustering model II is well-suited for use in 5G overlay D2D and cellular communications.

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is a technology component for long-term evolution-advanced (LTE-A). In D2D communication, users in close proximity to each other can communicate directly without going through a base station; such direct communication can improve spectral efficiency. Although D2D communication brings improvement in spectral efficiency, it also causes interference to the cellular network as a result of spectrum sharing. In particularly, D2D communication can generate interference for each D2D pair when the common wireless medium in a co-located limited area is accessed. Even though the interference management for between the D2D pair and cellular networks has been proposed, the interference reducing methods have still not been fully studied for the D2D pairs. In this paper, we investigate the problem of D2D pair coexistence in which interference is considered between D2D pairs. Using a signal to interference model for a target D2D pair, we provide an analysis of the aggregated throughput of a dense D2D network. For a target D2D pair, we assume that the desired signal and interference signals obey multipath fading and shadow fading. Through analysis, we demonstrate the effect of cluster size such as the number of D2D pairs and the size of the considered area on the network performance. The analytical results are compared with computer simulations. Our work can be used for a rough guideline for controlling the system throughput in a dense D2D network environment.

본 논문은 APDP(Anti-Parallel Diode Pair)를 이용한 5 GHz 대역 무선통신용 서브 하모닉 혼합기를 설계하였다. 기존의 혼합기는 LO와 RF를 혼합하여 투 주파수의 차로서 IF 신호를 얻는다. 그래서 주파수가 높아질수록, 안정되고, 높은 출력을 갖고, 우수한 위상잡음 특성을 갖는 LO 발진기가 필요하다. 그러나 APDP를 이용한 서브 하모닉 혼합기는 LO 신호의 제 2 고조파를 이용하여 혼합 작용을 한다. 따라서 기존의 혼합기에서 필요한 LO 주파수가 1/2로 줄어드는 장점이 있다. 제작된 서브 하모닉 혼합기의 변환손실은 LO 신호전력이 3dBm일 때, 12.83 dB이다. LO/IF, 2LO/IF, RF/IF, LO/RF의 분리도 특성은 39.17 dB, 58 dB, 34 dB, 67.9 dB이다. 그리고 입력 IP3는 8 dBm이다.

ZigBee를 이용한 개인영역망으로 구성된 무선 다중 통합 레이저 교전 시스템을 구현하였다. 무선 레이저 검출기는 아날로그 신호처리, 해독 및 무선통신 기능을 갖추어야하는 반면 병사의 신체에 부착될 수 있도록 저전력소모, 소형 및 경량화 되어야한다. 소형 및 경량화를 위해 해독기는 소프트웨어적으로 구현하였고, 협대역 광학 필터를 이용하여 시스템의 부하를 줄여줌으로써 저전력화를 꽤하였다. 제작된 무선 레이저 검출기는 광잡음 환경에서도 정상 작동하였다. 무선 개인영역망을 통한 PU(Player Unit)와의 통신은 무선 레이저 검출기의 부착 위치에 따라 다소 차이가 있었으나 -40.2dBm이상의 출력으로 송신할 경우 100%의 수신율을 확보할 수 있었다.

Phased-array antennas comprise a demanding antenna design methodology for commercial wireless communication systems or military radar systems. In addition to these two important applications, the phased-array antennas can be used in beamforming for wireless charging. In this study, a four-way analog beamforming front-end module (FEM) for a hybrid beamforming system is developed for 2.4 GHz operation. In a hybrid beamforming scheme, an analog beamforming FEM in which the phase and amplitude of RF signal can be adjusted between the RF chain and phased-array antenna is required. With the beamforming and beam steering capability of the phased-array antennas, wireless RF power can be transmitted with high directivity to a designated receiver for wireless charging. The four-way analog beamforming FEM has a 32 dB gain dynamic range and a phase shifting range greater than 360°. The maximum output RF power of the four-way analog beamforming FEM is 40 dBm (=10 W) when combined the four individual RF paths are combined.

Information-centric networks operate under the assumption that all network components have built-in caching capabilities. Integrating the caching strategies of information centric networking (ICN) with wireless virtualization improves the gain of virtual infrastructure content caching. In this paper, we propose a framework for software-defined information centric virtualized wireless device-to-device (D2D) networks. Enabling D2D communications in virtualized ICN increases the spectral efficiency due to reuse and proximity gains while the software-defined network (SDN) as a platform also simplifies the computational overhead. In this framework, we propose a joint virtual resource and cache allocation solution for latency-sensitive applications in the next-generation cellular networks. As the formulated problem is NP-hard, we design low-complexity heuristic algorithms which are intuitive and efficient. In our proposed framework, different services can share a pool of infrastructure items. We evaluate our proposed framework and algorithm through extensive simulations. The results demonstrate significant improvements in terms of visiting latency, end user QoE, InP resource utilization and MVNO utility gain.

Wireless mobile communication systems in subway tunnels have been widely researched these years, due to increased demand for the communication applications. As a result, an accurate model is essential to effectively evaluate the communication system performance. Thus, a neoteric three-dimensional (3D) geometry-based stochastic model (GBSM) is proposed for the massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels in tunnel environment. Furthermore, the statistical properties of the channel such as space-time correlation, amplitude and phase probability density are analyzed and compared with those of the traditional two-dimensional (2D) model by numerical simulations. Finally, the ergodic capacity is investigated based on the proposed model. Numerical results show that the proposed model can describe the channel in tunnels more practically.
